Rainbow House Shave Ice in Oahu

Amazing shave ice and acai bowls. Not to mention the cute local shops right there. Nice little stop while at the north shore.

Great prices, choices, fresh fruit options. Easy access, cool, clean and fun.

A cute little road side stop on the North side. Just follow Kamehameha Hwy. You won't miss it. They have an excellent exotic menu. Everything is very reasonably priced. The pineapple bowl in the picture was only $6. Bring extra help as everything is huge portions. Plenty of covered seating along the road way. Wonderful shop next door.

Friendly staff, clean place, shaved ice were good.

The acai bowl is really good, loved it better than the sun rise shack acai bowl. Also got the pineapple coconut smoothie which was alright. Definitely get the acai bowl for sure!

At the very least this is a dependable bathroom pit stop on the way to/from the North Shore. But don’t pass up the opportunity for a smoothie or other frozen treat. The prices are fair and quality legit.

Amazing and unique shave ice! My wife and I loved it.

Random find, the shaved ice is really good and comes with ice cream. Fairly priced. Good service.

Very tasty. Don't have one of the item available but the ordered substitution was delicious as well.

The Hawaiian blue coconut was the best.

Great selection, great flavor. Was a real treat for 4th of July

So many choices and combinations that are very flavorful. Great prices ... $4 for almost everything... One flavor with ice cream and condensed milk drizzled top. And the shave ice was a perfect fine shave ... no ice chunks. I highly recommend and would totally go there again. Super cute place for a refreshing stop!

I wanted something Hawiaan! As ahh the shaved ice! My favorite!

Great little place, shaved ice was amazing and would definitely recommend to others!!!

Soft shaved ice, creamy ice cream topped with fresh fruit. Delicious!

The best shave ice on island!!! Can't beat $4 for perfect shave ice with a scoop of ice a cream!! 😍😍😋Super fast, barely ever a line! Plenty parking. Restrooms available as well. Check out the little fruit stand across the parking lot as well!Just wish they weren't all the way on the other side of the island from us!!!!!

Absolutely scrumptious shave ice. I was a tad unsure about ice cream with shave ice, but you can ask for no I've cream. I tried it and it was wonderful! Good price too

Came here for a little snack and it was definitely worth it. The shaved ice here is delicious and presented so well. Plus the ocean view from across the street is beautiful!!! The customer service here is awesome, so friendly, so much energy just an all around great atmosphere! After you enjoy your shaved ice you can go and enjoy shopping within the same shopping mall area, go get a tattoo or just cross the street and go to the beach and hang 10 with the locals. Park in this shopping center, do all these things you won’t regret it!!! Definitely a great way to kill at least 6 hours bare minimum

Great shaved ice. The line moves fast.

The very best Acai bowl ever! A must stop!

Can't wait to get my pineapple ice cream my next trip to Oahu!

I LOVE the Acai Bowl! Consistently made, it can be a meal in itself. And they also make amazing shave ice and fruit smoothies, all served with ALOHA!

We got the #3 best seller: pineapple shaved ice with ice cream and pieces of pineapple fruit ($5) the shaved ice is doused in pineapple syrup which was rather sweet and artificial tasting :( the ice cream is all the way hidden at the bottom of the pile and was just supermarket vanilla ice cream and tasted quite bad. A condensed milk/sweet cream ice cream would work much better against the pineapple than vanilla (at least cheap, mass produced vanilla ice cream). I thought the price was very cheap but after tasting the shaved ice I’m not so sure it is anymore 🤣

Colorful sugar syrup, no real 'flake' to the ice (may just be I don't like this style)

Clean and adorable local place. The lady working was super friendly and made conversation. She even gave me free condensed milk after I saw it on my boyfriend's shave ice and wanted some on mine.

Love this adorable shave ice spot! We've been here a handful of times and tried lots of flavors. My favorite is the lychee shave ice with ice cream. The pineapple/coconut is good too, and you can get fresh pineapple on top if you like. The iced coffee is very good too. Even when they're busy, the wait isn't bad. There are other shave ice places that are more famous, but this one is my favorite.

Excellent shave ice stand. Wide variety with ice cream and fresh fruit options. High quality for a low price!!!

My favorite place to go and enjoy on a Saturday. Love the shaved ice , but the only issue I had if they were more natural it would be that much better. Try the pineapple coconut great stuff. Also Love the scenery and the surrounding store.

Sooo delicious!!! We worth a stop. The shave ice is $4, very good! We also had the pineapple filled with chunks and icecream. Will definitely come back.

Absolutely brilliant. The shaved ice with ice cream is deliciously smooth, creamy, and flavorful. One of the best places we've found on the island.

I got the pineapple shaved ice 🍧 with ice cream in the bottom. 5 bucks was good 👍🏻

So yummy and authentic

Went there for the first time today. Everyone (Mom, Dad, 3 kids & Grandma) was satisfied with the service, pricing, and most importantly taste. Everything tasted wonderful, and all the shave ice came with ice cream (not an up charge like usual). Would recommend and will definitely come here again.

Couldn't find parking for Matsumoto down the street. Just left there and figured there would have to be another shaved ice stand on the way to PCC. Discovered this hidden gem. Ordered a mango/passion shaved ice (all their shaved ice includes ice cream), an Acai Bowl, and an iced coffee. Holy cow. The shaved ice was smooth and delicious. The iced coffee was strong and bold with a splash of cream that made it luxurious. But the star of the show boys...the Acai Bowl. The honey they use is light and perfect. The granola crunchy and flavorful. The fruits were the highest quality. Big blueberries, red strawberries, perfectly ripe bananas. It came in a huge quart sized bowl and even though I had lunch just 3 hours ago, I finished the entire thing and wanted another one. Please do yourself a favor and get the Acai Bowl Here.

I have been to Hawaii many times. This is the one place you must stop at to make the trip complete.

It’s a pretty long wait to get the shaved ice, as it takes a long time to make, but definitely worth the wait!

Delicious shaved ice. Line out the door! But really the homemade futakaki potato chips was where it's at. Great priced Souvenirs.

Wow, you need to try this. Not sure the ice cream in the middle should be required but the ice itself is amazing. Completely different texture than any other shaved ice place I've tried.

Good selection. Some unique shaveice combos with fresh fruit.

Good prices, great variety & nearby!

Probably the best shaved ice I had in my life, easily beating Matsumoto's. We'll be back - probably several times until we have to leave. Make sure to try Lychee flavor.

Perfect place to go after a day at the beach in the North Shore. Lots of different flavors and options available. Great flavors.

Absolutely delicious! Just melts with flavor. Thought we could find it without GPS but just like a lot of other local joints, no signage.

Great shave ice. Best I've ever had.

Super soft and fluffy shaved ice, and great selection of flavors. Definitely in my top favorites!

Having tried most of the açaí on the north shore, this one was one of the better ones. The atmosphere was nice and they were very nice themselves. The bowl was worth the price because they definitely don’t skimp on it.

I got the #17 (mango and passion fruit with ice cream) and i devoured it. Delicious small place to enjoy some fruity and flavorful shave ice

Perfect shave ice made with juice instead of that colored corn syrup. Really like the icecream burried in the shave ice.

This was my first time at this place as we don't frequent this area. The shave ice was great! The usual local flavors but I was surprised at the reasonable price for the size of the serving. It also has an ice cream or soft serve center but you can get just the shave ice if you don't want the soft serve.Also worth noting is that safety guidelines are followed due to COVID, which I greatly appreciate!

Love this sweet little spot! Friendly people, ice is delicious (I had strawberry banana). We stopped at Dole plantation earlier in the day for some pineapple icecream this was hands down way better (my husband had the pineapple both stops). We have come back a few times now and love it each visit. Parking is pretty decent, shade is nice, bathrooms are good. Overall an excellent trip.
