    Mochalotta Chill (Ask for Whip Cream and Ice, if you want it)
    Chanel M.

    Just stopped by for my first Mochalotta Chill in years and I regret it. Apparently you need to ask for whip cream and apparently you also need to ask for ice. I was originally handed a cup with a lid so when I mentioned that I thought it came with whip cream he said, "Oh you wanted whip cream?". I told him that I didn't know I needed to ask since the picture is advertised with it and thats how I recall them coming many years ago. He then took my cup back, emptied some of the drink out, poured on some whip cream, closed it up and handed it to me. I guess in the process I lost all my ice or he didn't really give me any sooo needless to say my drink was warm shortly after. A waste of $5 because after it got warm I didn't want it.

    Classic Cinnamon Roll with a regular vanilla iced coffee

    A national food chain known for appetizing aromas that trick your mind that you need a cinnamon roll!!! Quality is same and the service is quick and fast. A great snack to indulge in.

    Cinnamon Roll
    Daniel C.

    Ever wake up and have the weirdest craving? I recently woke up craving a cinnamon roll. Never in my life I had a craving like this so I found it odd. Could it be an ad I watched while streaming something before bed? I don't believe I'm pregnant lol. Maybe it's due to the new cinnamon floss I picked up? No, it's not normal I buy cinnamon floss but that's all they had and I didn't have floss lol. I still don't know what it was but the craving lingered. Days have passed and I was still thinking about a cinnamon roll. Eventually I gave in and went to Cinnabon in Ala Moana Center to buy one. Wish they were still in Kahala Mall but Ala Moana isn't crazy far away. Making cinnamon rolls at home wasn't realistic so I'm glad Cinnabon exists. Customer service was friendly and they had freshly baked cinnamon rolls. I ordered one original to go. It was warm and fragrant so I couldn't wait to eat it. The cinnamon roll was extremely filling and hit the spot. Craving satisfied thanks to Cinnabon.

    Ummm, I haven't had Cinnabon in so long so I decided to give it another try when I was walking around the mall. My boyfriend and I split the center of the roll and EW. these were so dry and stale. The cinnamon filling tasted like it went bad as well. It was just an all around awful experience. The girl working was very closed off as well and she was so quiet.

    In the Ala Moana food court they have a Cinnabon. Service was quick and the cinnamon rolls are still amazing! No surprises here, just great cinnamon rolls!

    Cinnabon is located in the Food Court of Ala Moana. There is plenty of seating around. The service was great from when I went. I never had a problem, and the workers were hustling. The Cinnabon came out warm, and I have no complaints.

    Very satisfying classic
    Rachie P.

    On our most recent visit, the food court was pretty empty due to Covid closures and social distancing from patrons. You would think with all the space available now, people would have no problem social distancing. Easier said than done for many... This location has a door toward the parking lot and an entrance into the food court. To me it makes sense to make it a "one way" only lane since its a narrow shop. People still insist on walking in, then scooting very closely by patrons waiting in line against the wall. SMDH. This cant always be helped by the business but it would be nice for the employees to kindly ask customers that finish their purchase to exit toward the parking lot. There's no where to sit near Cinnabon anyways, vamos! Besides that rant, Cinnabon rolls are always good. The employee was young and probably not happy about working, but he wasn't rude. Parking is close by. I wish there was a reward program, but regardless we still always pay the high prices...

    Cinnamon buns all day every day~~~
    Vina P.

    Cinnabon~~ Your nose will find Cinnabon before your eyes do! Walking past Cinnabon requires all the willpower you can muster. I obviously gave in. While standing in line this song always pops into my head: "Sugar, ah honey honey You are my candy girl And you got me wanting you~" I normally get one Cinnabon bun, but the box of four regular sized Cinnabon buns is a better deal. Some days we just deserve the whole box. :p

However, there are many alternative malasada purveyors throughout Honolulu, so I depended on local vloggers to find the best ones. This one popped up often on YouTube, and as luck would have it, we were dining at The Pig & The Lady on the next block. How calorifically convenient. We took the opportunity to stop by for a pre-dinner snack since they closed at 6PM. It's a cute shop with multiple sweets including quite a selection of housemade ice cream and delectable mouthfuls called Cake Bombs (Photo 10). We decided we would be good and ordered one unfilled Malasada each. Dusted with various sugar flavors, they were just $2.65 a piece. I went for the Coffee, while Jamie chose the daily special, Cinnamon (Photo 6). They were soft and tasty, quite comparable to Leonard's albeit a tad smaller. That wasn't necessarily a bad thing since we had dinner ahead of us. However, we let temptation get the best of us and shared a $5.50 slice of the Ube Haupia Mac Nut Bar, a yummy combination of sweet potato and ube topped with haupia (coconut milk pudding) on a macadamia nut crust (Photo 9). Truth be told, it stole the show from the malasadas.
