Honestly, whenever I see a review that's 4 stars or lower I genuinely don't understand why.

It's clear that they truly care about both their product and their guests. If you're looking for a dessert spot with incredible service, delicious desserts, and great vibes, MOSA is the place to be. If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would!

Big letdown. The filling tasted like prepackaged pastry filling to me rather than something fresh and homemade.

I wouldn't bother waiting in a long line but if there's no wait - grab an original.

I love Pipeline Bakeshops Malasadas! I have been to several Malasada places in Hawaii but | love…read morethere's the best for the following reasons: 1. the size of the malasadas: some restaurants tend to make their Malasadas smaller and when places do this it ruins the overall texture and quality of it. The bigger the malasadas size the more airy and fluffy and more bread layers that will be inside. 2. their malasadas always taste fresh and the same quality each time. 3. their malasadas don't feel oily or heavy at all Overall I would highly recommend this place for their Malasadas! I'm so happy to have found them. I can back multiple times on my trip. They also have other desserts too that I have yet to try. They have ice cream, cakes, and other desserts Also tip: if you are ordering a malasada also order a coffee or a matcha drink to go with it. The cinnamon sugar from the malasada just matches so perfectly with a drink this restaurant is also a nice place for walking! There's lot of stores and restaurants to walk around! I'm trying to remember but I think there was a book off that was not too far from here! If you either drive or maybe walk. Service: staff was super helpful and friendly while I was there. I was having an issue with my online order because my phone was being glitchy and they were so nice in helping :) Also wanted to note their branding is so cute!! They even sell merch items too

The restaurant is located near the Ala Moana Food Court so you can get yourself a savory meal then head here right after. They have a nice selection of Korean Bingsu and Drinks but the Bingsu is what keeps everyone coming back. Don't let it's simple look fool you. The ice is super fine and creamy. You'll receive a small cup of Condensed Milk to drizzle throughout as you devour it. Make sure you don't drizzle it all at once. Popular flavors are Strawberry, Mango, Oreo and Injeolmi (roasted soybean powder) but I must say, the Mixed Berries is gonna be on my top choices from now on! I've tried watermelon too in times past and that's also a refreshing choice. The Bingsu includes slivered almonds and some whipped cream. They have a small size that could be good for 1-2 people but we got a large and it fed 4 of us ladies. Make sure you stop here before you leave Ala Moana and treat yourself!

We luckily found parking along kapahulu so tried 2 new places: Aburiya Ibushi (9:30pm) and Cha To Gelato Zen (10:30pm). As we walked back to our car, we walked past Zen and noticed it was packed. And it was a Tuesday night! Great that there was a menu on the door so we could see what the excitement was all about. Appeared to be fancy matcha drinks and desserts with a gelato bar. Decided since we had free parking and the line didn't seem too long, grabbing a gelato to take home shouldn't take long. There was only 1 person working to serve the entire restaurant! She had to make every fancy dessert! Omg. But as I watched her, I realized that she was so sweet to everyone and worked very efficiently. We actually did not wait long at all, as there were only 3 orders ahead of us. When it was our turn, she let us sample the gelato flavors. We ended up buying twice as many scoops because they were all so delicious! Not cheap but tasty! We got the azuki (creamy because it's mixed with marscopone), black sesame, miso (taste kinda like caramel), and seasonal watermelon (only for August). The matcha chocolate was very unique. Didnt try the mango. My fav was the watermelon, which was more of a sorbet than gelato. Will definitely return to try their other desserts!

I had seen two occupied tables as I walked into the shop. Both had matcha drinks. Why not? I asked the young man assisting me, what's the best matcha drink? He said his favorite was banana matcha with extra banana foam. Okay I'll try it. He repeated it to the cashier. So popular there was a wait for beverages to be prepared. Soon enough mine was ready. I think Doc would enjoy this drink. This shop is a working bakery. Many yummy pastries displayed. Menu is posted high up above to choose from. Rather tiny shop with room for customers to stand in line to order and wait for drinks. Clean, busy with a few tables and chairs outside but pretty much in direct sun.

We did however, snag the last 2 mango w/ whipped cream mochi along some other red bean mochi. Was a bit surprised that the aunties were arill making them though they were gonna close in less than 2 hours. We hopped into the car and turned on the ac while we opened up the first mango mochi. Wasn't a huge fan of the whipped cream but the mango was pretty sweet. The mochi had a nice chewy and soft texture to it. Sadly, wasn't a fan of the regular red bean or ube mochi but did enjoy the texture. Went back a few days later at 10 and saw a full fridge of the mango mochi w/ lima bean. This is likely the only thing I'd go back for which was pretty good. A full 1/2 of a mango sits inside a bit of white bean paste wrapped in a soft and chewy mochi. Only thing that would've made this even better is if the mango we had would've been sweeter. Decent mango taste but understand there's no way to guarantee whether a mango is sweet or not. Still prefer the unique mochi flavors at Nishodo but quite enjoyed the texture or the mochi her at Kansai. Did notice the mochi here still has a good texture even the next day.

Pop! Fizz! Pucker! Swoon!!…read more What is this new sensational snack?!? It's freeze dried and full of mouthwatering flavor. Crazy good! Happened upon this fledgling business while they were set up as a popup just outside of the Hawaiian Chip Company (originally stopping to buy chips from the HCC factory store on Republican St.). So happy we did. Got to meet the nicest owners in John and Bernie and hear about how this business got started. All the while John enthusiastically told us about their products and gave us samples to try. I swear, for a few seconds I was confused as I had gone through about 31 different flavors (ok slight exaggeration there) of samples and thought I was at "that" ice cream shop. Samples of what you ask? Everything is freeze dried and delicious. There are freeze dried ice cream bites, salt water taffy bites, even freeze dried skittles! Seriously! Isn't your mouthwatering already?!? Heard there was a mango flavor which paired with their sauce giving the reminiscence of shoyu pickled mango but that one was already sold out by the time we got there. The next planned popup is not until April and will be announced on their website. Other popups maybe added before that and will also be posted on website at: www.onolicioussnackco.com Don't want to wait for a popup? One can always order direct on website. And let me tell you, I will definitely be going there for a repeat of some of their freeze dried salt water taffy (today bought flavors: lilikoi, lychee and strawberry, passion fruit orange guava, watermelon, neopolitan) and my favorite, the sour skittles! Thank you John, thank you Bernie for bringing us these amazing treats. As you explained, each batch taking AT LEAST 24 hours to make. What a labor of love. Good luck and best wishes in this new business! I am going to selfishly tell everyone I know about you guys as I would like to enjoy these treasures for a long long time!
