“ This is my new fav shave ice place in terms of total package- yummy shave ice, not crowded (at least when we went there!), seating, and bowls that aren't spilling over with shave ice (clean and easy to eat!) And the mochi toppings were great. Best of all, they have a kamaaina rate! We will definitely stop here every time we go to the north shore! ”

“ This place is a must if you are visiting the north shore. We had a wonderful visit and enjoyed shaved ice that was worth the trip! They were pretty fast with our order and the aesthetic is what you would expect. Highly recommend this place! ”

“ Delicious! Whenever I fly in for vacation this place is a must have! I stumbled across this gem a few years ago while passing through to Hale'iwa & it's been my go to shave ice since. They have a large selection of different flavors for everyone! ”

“ Lots of flavors of shaved ice to choose from at this business. For me, The Lychee shaved ice was refreshing for a noon time treat on a balmy, July day. The ice was delicate and syrup light . Window service was efficient and the wait was about 15 minutes for our group to receive their individual orders of açaí bowl, mango smoothie and other flavors of shaved ice. There were tables and benches in the shade for group seating. As visitors to the North Oahu area we were happy to find Rainbow House. ”

“ It's a nice spot to grab a post lunch dessert/cool treat after eating at Tanakas! The fruit was fresh and they constantly had a line. The only thing I would keep in mind is that it is right next door to the restroom/outhouse. But seating is available in other areas around the shop. The line was never ending around the busy times of the day, and it is a very popular area for a rest stop. It is a grab and go establishment, not a sit in. ”

“ Great lil stop if you're in North shore but don't want want to head into Haleiwa. The ice was nice and soft and the mango tasted sweet and fresh. Great service too! Parking is easy in a huge lot. ”

“ took my parents to get shave ice for the first time here and they were so pleased! they loved that it was loaded with toppings and had so many varieties to choose from. the ice came out perfect with good amount of syrup flavoring and toppings. they have covered seating shared with the coconut juice stand next door. highly recommend getting anything on their menu with a snow cap! (condensed milk) ”

“ I don't even like shave ice, but Rainbow House is the best I've had so far in my limited lifetime experience. My friends and I came at 1pm on a Friday. It was not busy, but I could see there being a long wait if there were more than 10 people in line. After taking in our 5 orders, they closed the order window to focus on making 2 shave ice bowls at a time. As we ordered, an adorable shop cat strolled out of the window. She sat down on the service bell and accepted our love and attention while we waited for the dessert. - #3 Pineapple with fruit and ice cream ($7). It was the tastiest flavor out of the items I tried. The ice crystals were fine and soft. I didn't mind how it quickly melted into a slushy because the texture was great, like Taiwanese shaved snow. The condensed milk was also nostalgic for me. I thought the diced pineapple was just okay, as it was ripe but more tart than sweet. The pineapple syrup was like a core inside the shave ice dome. Syrup was evenly distributed in the ice. It was sweet, but not unbearably, and the fruit flavor was okay. The vanilla ice cream was buried under the ice in the middle. It tasted good with everything else in one bite. Blue Hawaii coconut was my next favorite flavor. It was was not too sweet and the coconut syrup didn't taste too fake. Peach was alright. I don't think the syrup tasted as true to the fruit. The mango was meh for me; the ice itself had faint flavor, but the mango was ripe. There was plenty of parking out front, and they accepted credit card. ”
