    Food Truck
    Lynn H.

    Absolutely amazing. Stopped here for a pick me up snack. Donuts were so soft and fluffy and made fresh. We got them pretty quick and they were pipping hot. Best stop ever. We started with 4 donuts to try: Orignal, Cinammon, Li Hing, and the Chocolate filling. We inhaled the donuts in the car and came back for more Got the coconut to try, another one of the cinnamon and the Li Hing. They also had the custard filling that we haven't gotten round to yet. Our favorites were the Li Hing and the Cinammon flavor. The chocolate filling was pretty good too. It leaned more towards a dark chocolate flavor, so not too sweet which is great. Obviously we came back for round 2. Might stop by for a third round

    Don't have a chance to make it to the bakery, so the food truck had to do. It's located in the middle of a random shopping center parking lot. Took us a bit to find it. It didn't live up to the hype for me, unfortunately. I mean, fried dough is always going to be a treat, but I didn't love it. The original was my favorite of the three. Pillowy, good amount of sugar. The stuffed one was a disappointment. The coconut cream inside wasn't my favorite texture. It was more of a custard/pudding and the flavor tasted artificial in a way. Ben at the food truck you're paying a premium for these. I wonder if it's just aimed for tourists doing the loop and stopping at the lookout points. There's a picnic table if you want to take a quick seat to eat them but majority of people took them to go.

    Leonard's malasadas was on my list of items to try while in Hawaii. I had planned on visiting their brick and mortar, but was pleasantly surprised to find their maladasamobile while driving to and from our hotel. We decided to stop by on our last day, right before hiking the the Koko Crater Trail. To our surprise, there was no line. We ordered one of each of the malasadas puffs: custard, dobash (chocolate), and haupia (coconut). They were $2.45 each. The malasadas came out hot and fresh minutes later. We sat on one of the benches briefly to taste them. The dough was light and airy and all three filling flavors were delicious. I especially enjoyed the dobash and custard. Leonard's is definitely worth a stop!

    This food truck is located in the mall center. Since it's a truck, they only offer malasadas here, even though their main location carries a wider variety of pastries. Service can be a bit slow, especially if there's a line. hey're definitely the best malasadas around and absolutely must be eaten fresh! Sometimes the classic (without filling) is just as good as the more popular filled options. A must-try!

    Good malasadas in a non-descript strip mall. Came here after Hanauma Bay. There's plenty of strip mall parking. Grabbed a few malasadas - think I preferred the filled ones over the originals, but feel the filling gives a little bit of moisture to the malasadas. Would come back!

    Stopped by after a Koko Head hike. The malasadas were amazing! They were freshly fried and piping hot. I liked the ones without filling more - both the original and cinnamon were light, airy, and delicious. I thought the fillings (I tried custard & coconut) could've had more flavor. Parking was easy, and there was a very short line at 8:30am. Service was friendly and extremely fast.

    Leonard's Bakery Food Truck, located in a parking lot of a shopping center. I ordered a regular malasada with sugar and cinnamon, it was soft and delicious! It hits different fresh out the oil and eaten immediately. Light and airy goodness!

    Perfect when they're freshly fried. Went on a rainy day, and there was no line here. If you've never had a malasada before, they're essentially fried doughnuts. Delicious, though a bit doughy to get to the creamy part. They actually travel well (brought some home!)

    I haven't been here in a while, so I'm going to update my review. Their brick and mortar location in Waikiki always has a line. Going to their malasadamobiles are so much easier. They have one here, Pearlridge and Waikele Outlet Mall. I'm not sure if they have one anywhere else. I got four haupia filled malasadas $2.45 each. They also had custard and dobash fillings. They were already made sitting on a rack under a heat lamp. When you get malasadas they're best eaten fresh out of the fryer. If it has been sitting for a while it doesn't hit the same. It was ok, but it's just so much better fresh. It saves time, as it takes a few minutes for them to fry it up. I'd still rather wait a few minutes to get them fresh.

    Ate too much at Hawalea Joe's, but still managed to convince everyone to get some Malasadas since it's our last day before flying back to CA. Warm Malasadas even from a food truck...clean, good service outta this small footprint.

    Home delivery (NOT by Leonard's!)

    Amazing. Every. Freaking. Time. So much better than any donut you ever had (also because this is not a donut :-) I don't know how they do it, but I'm hooked. Pro tip: don't expect too much of distinct flavor from the custards - there is a little hint of fruit, but mostly just sweet gyuhee goodness!

    Sofyan S.

    Food (4/5): Got the chocolate filled pastry and it was solid. Not too sweet and good texture. Service (4/5): No issues and the food came out fast. Ambiance (4/5): Food truck with outdoor tables and chairs nearby.

    How convenient to have a Malasada mobile in Hawaii Kai where we were staying! No braving the lines at the OG store that I grew up going to. And the malasadas have more variety than when I was growing up here too- fillings (haupia, cream an chocolate), and plain sugar, cinnamon sugar and Ling hi Mui sugar. We tried one of each. And came back another day for more.

    Is this truck ever open? Everyday I've been coming to Koko Marina in hopes that the truck will be finally open to buy malasadas. They don't post their hours of operation on the truck or on this Yelp site. Anybody know?

    I went today March 07, 2022, and the sign says 730am-6pm until further notice. Hope that helps.

    Does anyone know the hours of operation?

    Garlic chicken!…read more December 31, 2015 There were only a few items on the menu, eight to be exact, and I was happy with my order! I selected the Garlic Chicken (#7) and the chicken was crispy, tasty, and juicy in the inside. The meal came with two scoops of rice and green salad. It was a good size portion. Well, for $12 I expected it to be, at least! Other items offered at this food truck was Local Fish (#6), Salt and Pepper Shrimp (#5), Kahuku Garlic Shrimp, Pineapple Shrimp (#2), Spicy Garlic Shrimp (#3), and Coconut Shrimp (#4)... He was the only food truck at this location at the time so he made bank. $7.00 for a mini and $11.99 for a regular plate. Fries is $2.50/ea. A can of soda is $1 each. The owner was nice and friendly. Cash only basis as with most food trucks. Was able to try this food truck while he was on location at Sandy Beach Park. Review #0408

    Nothing less than great!…read more We spent a few hours on Sandy Beach. Feeling a bit hungry we spotted this Food Truck on the parking lot of Sandy Beach. With the blue paintjob it's impossible to miss. We ordered some Ice-Tea, Wings, Garlic Shrimp and Fish'n'Chips. And I can say that the food was nothing less than fantastic! The shrimps had a good size and were cooked to perfection. Nice garlic flavour, nicely balanced. The Wings were hot and crispy. The Fish was very fresh and tender. We didn't expect much, but ended up with one of the best Food Truck meals we've had on Hawaii. Prices are about 12$ a meal....about average compared to other trucks....but more than fair considering the quality. Sandy Beach is the perfect spot to hang out a bit and grab some good food at this Truck. Highly recommended!

    Okay-- BEST POKE ON THE TRIP AWARD goes to... this spot…read more We've had Ono before, on a prev. trip. Great. But then we fell hard for Off-the-Hook. This trip... Ono Seafood won the battle. This poke was SO FRESH, I could taste the knife, the boat, the water, the morning sun... all in good ways. It was divine. The catch? Maybe their DRY RUB... I have spicy habits, and tend to get poke lathered in spicy sauce. This poke had no sauce, just a dry salt / pepper rub - and the dryness of the fish, helped me TRULY taste the TEXTURE, freshness, and the QUALITY of the fish. Blown away. The owner (or manager) came out to check on us, and thank us for coming out. Told us the fish had been REALLY good lately, out there on the water. We could taste it. Love the tempura flakes they add on top. Can't wait to go back!

    This place is hidden in the Kalama Valley shopping center, at the 4 way stop. Not much in there but…read morewow, there's Ono seafood. They have fresh ahi and tako poke which you can get by the pound or as bowls. The regular is $16 and the large is $18 and you can have a choice of two kinds of poke. I got the Hawaiian style tako poke with limu and chili pepper and it's yum! Might say tho, it's a little heavy on the Hawaiian salt. It also has a bit of a kick from the chili pepper. It's served plain but you can add on things like furikake, ginger for 75 cents or avocado slices for $1.50. Also you can get it with white or brown rice. Not all places has tako poke as part of the regular menu so if you like tako and you're in Hawaii Kai or coming in from Sandy's or Waimanalo side, stop here for your fix.

    Making it your own…read more.. That's what I do love about this discovery at Makana Mkt at Ka Makana Ali'i where they have it twice a week and this Sunday from 11a-3p I found this cute little card and it was Aloha Poke Bar which is obvious is a mobile cart which is absolutely cute and does exactly that where the menu describes the offerings for the day which was Classic, Tornado and what I got is Volcano their version of the spicy ahi. Bowls come in two sizes and though my thoughts was large though I got the small which is just $13 and all bowls comes with white rice topped with the poke of your choice and it doesn't end there you get unlimited toppings and I believe there was six types to which I got the pickled red onions and crispy onions (I later realized they were both onions lol!) there was also ocean salad, pickled cucumbers, furikake. The gentleman asked if I wanted inamona and spicy sauce...uuuhh yes! Poke is obviously premade and the list of the ingredients are all in as well as my Volcano which I though for me personally wasn't spicy enough was made with mayo, sriracha chili sauce, sesame oil, and green onions and thankfully it didn't have much green onions which I don't like but hey it adds the flavor. Rice cooked just right and the toppings complimented it all to my happy belly and was a pleasant find on this gloomy rainy day as the service was nice and friendly which brought the vibe to another level at this cute little cart.
