Came here for the first time. The trucks definitely beats going to the actually store where the line is endless and the parking is horrendous. When I arrived, there was no line. Ordered a dozen malasadas (half original and half cinnamon). Both are my favorite flavors and both came out huge and super warm. Staff are friendly and fast. Tons of parking as it's located along the corner of the large parking lot across the old Sears. read more

In town for vacation and driving the beautiful Windward Coast... needed a little morning treat so we stopped at the food truck. What a great decision it was. There is ample parking as it's in a shopping center (the Walgreens next door has public bathrooms!). They have two little tables to sit down if not taking your order to-go We were there on a Sunday morning in April and there were maybe three people in line when we arrived. There are three non-filled options (plain, cinnamon sugar, and sweet/sour) and three filled options (custard, chocolate, and coconut cream) We opted for the plain, cinnamon sugar, and the custard. They were all so, so delicious. Warm, fresh, and fluffy! I hesitated about ordering the custard as I didn't want something too heavy but it was a very light taste and texture and simply perfect Highly recommend! read more

Leonard's Pearlridge Malasada Mobile - Custard... One of the best sweet treats around! - Desserts Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

When in Hawaii, you gotta stop by one of the Leonard's locations for malasadas. I was the only one in line, so service was quick. The malasadas were warm and soft. However, when I was there, someone in the truck was on a phone call and was very loud and almost disruptive when I was ordering. I wish there were alternate bags or boxes even for small orders because the plastic bag wasn't it. read more

We don't live here we are visiting from Sacramento, California If you are going to Honolulu if you were going anywhere where this place is located because they have different locations, please make sure that you try! You will thank me if you're on a diet who cares throw out the window This place is worth having your sweet treat make this your one thing that you will not leave Hawaii without trying I was lucky I was driving and happened to see their food truck type of deal. The only problem was it was kinda hard to turn around in order to go and park. However, the weather was great sat on some benches that were right outside, which made it nice and it was like a little bit of a breeze in my hair I was able to get some good content for my own Instagram, which was pretty nice. I just loved sharing the food that I eat when I go out of town out of state out of country. I think it's so important to share all these things because people don't know what they'll be tasting. I want to say this the custard coming out of this was goosing goosing coming out. I can't even explain to you how delicious. I probably made some words up here. The stuff was really nice. I did not realize how huge these are. I was thinking oh they're small because the price is just right. Oh my goodness I hope they always stay a really relative good price so that way people can always try all of them because it's so worth it I've tried the sugar one. I tried the chocolate one. I tried the custard one I think I tried another one. It is just so delicious. I'm gonna add some video and also some pictures please if you go let me know how much you love it. I really really hope they open one of these Ca-Sacramento. read more

Leonards still beats all the other Malasada places. It really is the best. And this specific location is easy pick up with no lines. And I love that you can just order 1 if you please. Unlike Pennys that makes you do 3 at a time at least and isn't as good. I got to try their li hing flavor and the original custard. They come out fresh, hot, and delicious. They are perfect. The sweetness, doughiness, and custard ratio. Yum! The li hing was a nice unique one to try. The custard one is no match. Since it's a truck its a grab and go type of place. There's no where to sit and enjoy besides the comfort in your car. I cannot wait to come back and get them again. read more

Food: 5/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 2/5 Overall: Of course I'd come back for this. Malasadas - 5/5 - You seriously can't go wrong with this! No matter what flavor you want is literally magical in the mouth! This time I got the special flavors of haupia and dobash! Sooooo tasty!!! Service: 4/5 - Service with a smile. Ambiance: 3/5 - Since it's a mobile truck in the middle of a parking lot...not much of an ambiance. LOL. read more

Masaladas were amazing. My favorite was either macadamia nut/custard, and my wife's was the cinnamon sugar. It was pouring rain when we came, but the line moved pretty quickly; the wait was about 10-15 minutes to receive the items. I can't imagine it on sunny days. Regardless, it's a delicious sweet treat to try, and I would recommend making this one of your stops when on the island. read more

Stopped here on my way to work to get my co workers a treat around noon. Their truck is on the old sears side, so lots of parking! Service was nice & quick. I just ordered a dozen of the regulars shmegular sugar malasadas, although they do have cinnamon & li hing flavors too. They even have filling with either custard or chocolate too. I opted for the basic because you can't go wrong there. They only accept card or tap to pay. No cash. All in all, cravings satisfied and everyone was happy! read more

Love Leonard's Malasadas! A must stop when in Oahu. It's best when hot. Our favorites are the Original, Custard and Haupia filling. Yum Yum! Service is friendly and truck is conveniently located outside Pear Ridge Mall. There is seating with tables under the tree with shade if you prefer to enjoy there or pick up and go. Put on your list of things to do and eat! read more

I almost always get Leonard's when I'm home visiting. To avoid the long Instagram lines at the original Kapahulu location, I stop by this mobile truck or the one in Waikele. While it doesn't have the charm and ambiance as the bakery, the malasadas taste the same. The main advantage of the bakery is that they do have some other items that I sometimes get that you can't get at the trucks. read more

Best Leonard's truck imo! Got there on a Sunday at 9 am and no crazy line. Safe and effective layout for ordering keeping traffic a good distance away and!...... the malasadas were massive! Immense compared to other locations! And the workers weren't grouchy.... Cough, cough Waikele. read more

Leonard's malasadas. What more is there to say? Hands down, still the best malasadas on the island. My step daughter was in town visiting and I told her she cannot leave this island without bringing home malasadas. She and her family visited us a couple of years ago & fell in love with them then. We got there about 9AM on a weekday morning. No line, very short wait. This mobile truck has been in the same location at Pearlridge for years & is in the corner parking lot of the old Sears. You can't miss that infamous red and white striped truck. They have a couple of picnic tables next to the truck so you can nosh on malasadas at your heart's content. Since I had been there last, there were a couple of small changes. One, they no longer accept cash, card only and 2nd, they added a small metal shelf just below the window to do your payment transaction. You still order from the window, the gal rings it up & gives you a total, then using the tablet on the shelf, you complete your payment, adding tip if you want. Then insert or tap your card on the small black box next to the tablet. Easy peasy & much more efficient, The gal at the window hands you your receipt. Prices have gone up over the years as expected. Everything is made fresh and served hot but sometimes you may get some that are too doughey from being undercooked or too brown from being over cooked or dirty oil. We had ordered 1 dozen - 5 cinnamon, 3 custard, 2 dobash chocolate, 1 haupia/coconut, & 1 original all for $25. They're all good sized donuts and so ono! When my step daughter returned to the mainland that nite, she sent me pics of her kids devouring the malasadas. It didn't last long. Overall, da best with a convenient location, hot and fresh malasadas, friendly staff. Let's continue to support local and one of Hawaii's recognizable fixture. read more

Came here on a pit stop on the way to the airport, was super fast and fresh. The truck was wide open where you can see them making them. The service was quick and the malasadas were super hot. First time in Hawaii and this is a much try. There were tables under the shade. However I did not see any trash cans in site. read more

A malasada is a Portuguese donut, without a hole - they fry these up until it's golden brown, covered in this cinnamon-sugar coating (or, just plain sugar or li hing (salted plum powder)), and filled with your choice of filling (custard, mac-nut, guava, haupia, dobash (chocolate), etc.). We came to this mobile truck after having lunch in the area, and note that when there's a line, it will take some time to get yours, as it seems as if it's made-to-order. We ordered one in cinnamon sugar with a custard filling - it was piping hot and generous filled. There isn't a seating area, and most patrons just get theirs to go or enjoy it right there, by the truck. +made-to-order malasadas read more

We went in the evening approximately 1 hour before closing. There was only one person working at the time, so he was kind of busy taking orders and also frying and serving. He unfortunately confused our order and left out the two custard donuts we had ordered, giving us 2 more originals instead. I will say that these are freshly fried on the spot so be patient! Very delicious masalada dough. Original has a great dusting of sugar. Li Hing Mui flavor was very salty and not for us. Cinnamon was a classic! Giant parking lot with several food trucks near the Pearl ridge mall. read more

Leonard's malasadas is so delicious! Even more yummy when each are filled with custard, chocolate, haupia! The wait was about 20 minutes after ordering. When you take a bite, the filling comes oozing out so eat over a plate or napkin so you don't lose any of that delicious filling! Their food truck is in a parking lot so there's parking. And a couple of picnic tables you can enjoy eating under the shade of a tree, enjoy the breeze and hear the birds chirping. read more

Delicious donuts place!! We stopped this place before we went to the airport! Everything was hot and freshly made! Original one was my favorite!

Totally worth the hype! We tried all the flavors and every single malasada was light, airy, and just perfect. The dough is soft and fluffy, with just the right amount of filling -- like eating a cloud. What I really loved is that they're not overly coated in sugar, so you can enjoy them without the mess. We went to the food truck and had no wait at all, which made the experience even better. read more
