I don't love mochi but the mochi ice cream balls at Bubbie's is super delish. They outside part (moshi) is very thin and chewy then the center is a delicious homemade ice cream. They have a ton of flavors which are all recommended. My husband and I got six different mochi ice cream balls. They were all good. They also... More

Sometimes overly crowded with college kids, considering the location. But well worth the wait!!! We tried the Multiple Orgasm...Ice cream cake with a layer of oreo ice cream, coffee ice cream and chocolate ice cream. Lived up to it's name!! More

Despite living on Oahu for 8 years in the 1990's, it was only on a recent visit that I first tried their ice cream. I'm glad I found them, and it will be an obligatory stop every time we visit Honolulu. The ice cream is very rich and creamy, the flavors very interesting. They also have great mochi ice cream,...

very popular dessert place. Often a long line. Parking can be troublesome. Not easiest to find. Worth the effort though. You won't be disappointed. I would write the names of the desserts I had and which are my favorites but tripadvisor.com may not like it. You will know what I mean when you visit this dessert shop. More

ok. I love ice cream so I am a bit of a snob. Run to bubbies, it's that good! Be prepared to wait though it is so worth it! More

This place has the very best ice cream - top of the line dessert, bar none. The comparable place I've been for dessert is Sweet Life in Eugene, Oregon. The atmosphere at the University location is edgy, with lots of humor in the presentation of their desserts and ice cream. We also went to the one in Hawaii Kai, which... More
