I totally missed out on our last trip and didn't stop by. I was to determined to stop this go round. Unfortunately, I waited to the evening and he was completely out of Lilikoi. I was so bummed!!! I got 3 guava and 3 mango instead. They were freshly made once I placed my order so I didn't mind waiting 7 minutes. They were tasty, however a little to doughy for me. They weren't light and airy enough. They also needed more filling for the type of dough used. I would buy them again as long as he has lilikoi read more

Personally, this spot shouldn't have landed on my "must try in Maui" list. Almost 1pm on a Tuesday. They were out of a third of the flavors & most of their best sellers. Ended up getting a 3 pack - Bavarian, haupia and plain. Haupia was mainly just dried coconut meat; not enough actual cream. Bavarian was a basic Bavarian filling flavor. And our plain donut was honestly kind of a waste of money - dough has an almost sourdough bread flavor. My least favorite way of spending $13+. read more

Disappointing if you've had malasadas elsewhere. The dough here is really really dense. Super-coated in sugar and the fillings are inserted by cutting it almost in half. Fillings better than Leonard's but we still couldn't identify the fruit flavors (Lilikoi and mango tasted the same and looked like jam). Bavarian cream was a bit better. Also quite small at 3 for $15 (filled). Ok for the comparison experience but unlikely to stop here again. read more

Malasadas were hot and fresh! However, they were a little denser and crunchier than I prefer. I like them light, soft, and fluffy. However, that's just a personal preference. They had a great selection of fillings and sugars. Sugars included plain sugar, cinnamon, powdered sugar, and li-Hing. The guy taking our order was friendly and there were covered picnic tables near the food truck. Also, they only take cash, so bring some if you plan on eating here! read more

In response to the Owner's reply to me... how do I get money back for a purchase I made cash with no copy of receipt and where I do not live? I wasn't even complaining about money spent either. I went as a customer who was intrigued to try based on reviews I read and was disappointed with the final product received. Like I said in my original review, flavors were overbearing with what tasted like almond extract, or whatever extract was added in for the fillings. And if you need to know, I was comparing your donut to Leonard's - another Hawaiian-based company. Could've just said sorry for not having an experience similar to those in the reviews or not say anything at all. read more

We are a frequent customer returning each year to enjoy their wonderful malasadas. This year we went to order three and were told the price was $9 . We asked for fillings and were told that that would be another $2 per malasada for a total of $15 . Really, $5 each. I think they really need to rethink their pricing strategy. $5 for a piece of dough with a squirt of Filling.....? That means that a dozen with fillings is more than $45‍ seriously!!!!!

We came here last summer and loved these malasadas! This year we were really looking forward to these but we're so disappointed. We got the huapia, lilikoi, and custard filled, and it seemed like they put a small dollop of the filling on top and thats it. It was NOT filled with the filling at all. So very disappointed, maybe just the end of the day for them. Will need to find a new favorite malasada place next time we come. read more

Unlike standard donuts, theirs are fried to a perfect golden crisp on the outside while staying unbelievably fluffy, light, and pillowy on the inside. The Passion Fruit (Lilikoi) Magic: Tasting that tart, bright, tropical lilikoi burst against the sugary, warm dough is unforgettable. It cuts right through the richness of the pastry perfectly. Freshness First: Because they open bright and early at 6:00 AM, getting them warm means you are catching them at peak texture--crisp, airy, and meltingly soft. Mouth-Watering Savories & Pies It's rare for a bakery to completely master both ends of the spectrum, but they strike an incredible balance between decadent sweetness and rich, savory comfort: The Quiche: Getting a morning slice with a perfectly flaky, buttery crust and a rich, velvety egg custard is the ultimate savory breakfast comfort. The Key Lime Pie: A masterclass in balance. The sharp, refreshing pucker of the lime curd pairs flawlessly with a thick, buttery graham cracker crust, making it the ultimate mid-day or post-beach treat. The Croissants: True to artisan form--shattered layers on the outside, a rich, tender, airy web of butter on the inside. The Ultimate Beachside Vibe What truly seals the memory is the pure sense of place. It's a quintessential "cute little bakery"--unassuming, warm, and hyper-focused on quality. Being located right across from the beach means your morning walk isn't just an errand; it's an experience. Holding a warm box of malasadas and a fresh coffee while looking out at the ocean is pretty much peak relaxation. Just remember the golden rule of the neighborhood to avoid heartbreak: they take Sundays off, making Monday mornings all the sweeter when those doors swing open at 6:00 AM again!

Another thing that was so sweet was they allow local artists to have a space to sell their artwork (jewelry, photos, kitchenware, toothpaste, stickers, etc.)! They also were considerate of my husbands nut allergy!

Bright, colorful interior and friendly staff!

Plus he advertises Lechon and it takes a lot not to turn around, show up late to work, and lick that big banner with a photo of the Lechon. Plus the mochi, man! After finally having the stars sync where I could try this place out for myself, I was pleasantly surprised to see he offered a bunch of other stuff. Little bit pricey but trust me, it's worth it. He even has mochi malasadas with chantilly filling! Yummers! I got the Lechon plate for $20. Came with rice, two sauces, and 2 poi Cascaron balls. And some mochi malasadas with chantilly, and some poi cascaron on the side. All delicious and all worth a repeat visit. I would call ahead to save your Lechon because it sells fast. It's delicious and delectable soft pork belly with a crispy layer on top. My mouth is drooling as I write this! Definitely worth the stop! 5 stars!

The owner/worker is the sweetest! The mochi donuts are beautiful and the flavors are delicious!!!read more

Cinnamon Roll Place

Highly recommend this place! The staff were incredibly friendly and efficient. The cinnamon rolls…read moreare fresh and hot. They make them fresh all day it looks like. There is going to be a line almost always because the shop is small. Icing is not included but it's only .85¢ to add and if you get 5 rolls the 6th is free. Drinks are good, but definitely not the star of the show. We will definitely go back! Update: we went back again on our vacay and tried the Hawaiian Head Sandwich. We got one on a bagel and one on a croissant, they were phenomenal!

cinnamon roll - instantly felt sorrowful the moment my…read morefriend gnawed through the dry stale wheat; i could feel the texture just by seeing it with my own eyes - it was far from soft and pillowy but tasted as if it was left out for hours... perhaps that's why there was no line nor customers here - the glaze was crazily and unnecessarily sticky and sweet; i rather have a liquidy cream cheese glaze than a sticky almost hardened one - the exterior was a bit crunchy in an erroneous manner simply because it was over baked or something - this was everything gone wrong in a bun - i also didn't taste much cinnamon banana bread - loved this though! I got the bread with macadamia nuts because i love nuts and they drive me nuts - nuts were fresh enough, which added the crunchy texture to my soft moist bread - could be more moist but it was already satisfactory - i like how they sell smaller pieces rather than a whole loaf but also it was more pricey - not as fresh and as good as aunty sandy's but decent! rating: 3/5 - since this place focuses on cinnamon roll, the rating is heavily weighted towards the cinnamon, which did not meet the minimum expectations of what a basic cinnamon roll should be - if this place was called the banana bread place, id give it a 4/5 - quick service nothing much to note - very small store; grab and go vibes with some seats outside IG: @nom.noms.only

Nick's Fishmarket Maui is a very long time favorite and I still mourn the loss of Nick's Fishmarket…read moreOahu and the original Nick's Fishmarket Chicago. I don't know what I'll do if I lose Nick's Maui. But I dither, Nick's Fishmarket Maui is in an incredible location inside the Fairmont Kea Lani and it's setting alone would be enough to pull me back even if the food was just okay. Thankfully the food is MUCH better than "just okay", it is generally outstanding. I rotate starters and salads because there are so many great choices. The Caesar Salad is about as good as they get, but I really, really like the Maui Greek Salad. With at least four people we start with the Seafood Tower, but find it just too big for two of us. Other than that the Kalua Pig Pot Stickers, Charred Octopus, Crab Cakes and Blackened Ahi are the starters I rotate through. For my Main, I am less eclectic. I have a hard time getting away from the Diver Scallops and Scampi. I have tried other dishes, the Abalone, Kona Lobster and Ribeye (I know, I know, who orders steak in a seafood restaurant), but I keep coming back to. For Dessert, I am also in a rut, but I love desserts they set on fire and in this case it is Bananas Foster. I do sneak bites off my DW's Creme Brulee, as does off my BF. The service is terrific, attentive without being intrusive. I used to joke about the Chicago store that if you knocked a spoon off the table someone would catch it before it hit the floor. The Maui service isn't quite that attentive and I am not sure I would want it to be.

Perfect venue for unforgettable celebrations
