Near the airport and beach access, this is a tourist favorite, although a fair amount of locals have been spotted here. I judge a bakery cafe on their croissant. And Momona's is on point. Fluffy inside, crispy shell and buttery goodness. The second test is their espresso. They use a mass produced bean, but the taste was ok. Has room for improvement here, but I doubt they are marketing to coffee snobs given the volume of patrons getting sweets and lunch fare. My wife loves her sweet treats and this is on her must visit list whenever we visit Maui. Happy wife Happy life. Aloha

Great atmosphere, but mixed food and service. We stopped by Momona Bakery right after landing in…read moreMaui. The space is beautifully decorated inside an old bank, complete with a vintage vault. Since we arrived late, pastry options were limited. The ham and cheese tart (flaky), brownie (dense/decadent), and coconut slice (chewy) were great. The coconut roll, however, lacked flavor (skip it). Croissant breakfast sandwich & mortadella sandwich were good. The main disappointment was the salmon toast. It looked beautiful and was a large portion, but the two extra poached eggs I ordered were completely hard-poached. When I brought this up, the woman behind the counter flippantly told me, "Yes, this is how we make them." Poached eggs should ALWAYS have a runny yolk & I didn't believe her answer for a second. Clearly they made a mistake they did not want to own up to. I was highly disappointed by her attitude, especially since I paid extra for the eggs.

They don't have a storefront -- everything is done through online orders -- but the gal who helped me was incredibly kind and went out of her way to assist me in person. I picked up four bags to bring home to Oʻahu and they were SO good. My family enjoyed every bite and immediately asked where I got them. You can really taste the care and quality in each baked treat. If you want omiyage that's delicious, local, and guaranteed to make your family happy, Patticakes Bakery is the place to go.

Eat them fresh and warm they practically melting in your mouth with butter dripping through every layer and just a hint of honey. Even after sitting a few hours they are still soft and gooey. If you've had Nanding's in Oahu, imagine that same buttery goodness, but with even more of that gooey center oozing out. Why!?! Why!?! Why did I eat the entire box myself without sharing? They are too good to put down. Ok when you're ready run don't walk to get these amazing butter rolls. Sorry no pic I ate them up.

We were lured by the cooling fresh petite mango bread so we split one. Of course, I needed coffee so I ordered a Bee Nutz, which was perfectly sweet and creamy. We picked up some spam musubis to go with house made teriyaki sauce and a spicy option with jalapeño. Everything was delicious and fresh - and although we didn't get our hands on the sold out hot malasadas, I'm glad we were able to snag something tasty. Will arrive earlier next time for those malasadas!

The sponge cake is so light, and the cream fillings are just as light, paired with fresh fruit. Nothing about it weighs you down. The strawberry and cream is my favorite, with the matcha strawberry coming in at a close second. But honestly, my suggestion is to go with the sampler box and get a slice of everything: strawberry, ube, mango, banana, matcha, and cookies and cream. You won't regret it. Just make sure to go early, because they sell out fast. Aside from the roll cakes, they also have bentos, musubi, and sandwiches, so there's plenty to love here. Shikeda does beautiful Japanese-inspired bento and patisserie, and if you have a sweet tooth but want something on the lighter side, this is the spot. Highly recommend!

While it's a bit of a turn off for me when there are no prices displayed for any of the items, I'll still support you at least one time. There was the spam only musubi and one with egg which is what left with me. Initial visual is that it's juicy because of all the space and rolled in furukaki which are both things that I love! Nice hot when it left in my hand and out the door we went. The taste is good as the sauce wasn't too salty and the rice was just right; not to hard or soft. The rice was still able to hold together and the additional furukaki was generous. Nice shop to try! Street parking was easy for us this time

A MUST HAVE WHEN IN MAUI…read more This has been my favorite place to eat so far in Maui, the dry noodle is super delicious & the broth that you eat on the side with is FLAVORFUL. The beef skewers are the perfect texture & flavor. We ordered 4 at first, & ended up ordering 2 more right after. Delicious! Our server Tiffany is soooo nice & attentive. Super sweet & gave us recommendations since it was our first time there. She also recommended the banana pancakes there (come before 11), we will definitely be back to try that before we leave. Overall 10/10 recommend!

Aloha fellow BES' Kine Goodies Seekers!…read more I LOVE MANUELA MALASADAS so.stop by every time I go to Costco! They are right across the street so I may drive to the lot right next to the truck or just run across the street ! It's a cute, very clean food truck right off the hotel driveway & parking lot with parking stalls right near it in case you buy a bunch to take home. Or have a car full of luggage from your flight to Maui since it's just down the way from OGG airport. Malasadas put donuts to shame!!! ESPECIALLY if you like gooey fillings & toppings. My favorite ones are around Christmas but they have tons of regular fillings. I can never get less than three because I can't pass up my chance to try new ones. They have wonderful staff... especially the manager Sabrina...really know their way around dough and they do not scrimp on the Malasadas itself or the fillings! They ONLY cook just for you... so plan a few minutes wait but they have picnic tables under a tarp right there or you can walk around the other food trucks. But definitely at least take your first bites there while they're hot out of the frier!!! 'Only ONE piece of advice: ... G O. H U N G R Y !!!! ...

I mean, just check out their reviews, how could you not want to try it? Maui Pastry's dessert are Japanese style and all handmade by Ayumi, the owner. She posts pop-ups on her Instagram acount at @mauipastryayu and you seriously need to be quick. They sell out in a flash! Thankful to Bethani for giving me the heads up and hooking it up! Because of her I was able to try two delectable cheesecake flavors: Caramel Apple Cheesecake with walnut & graham cracker crust and Dark Cherry cheesecake with walnut crust. Oh my goodness, every single bite was heavenly. My favorite of the two was the caramel apple! I am not super into cheesecake, but swear, these didn't taste as heavy or overly sweet and oh the walnuts in the crust were absolutely perfect! You can really taste the quality and care that goes into every single bite. If you miss out on the pop-ups, you can put in an order for a whole cake. Place your order at least 5 days in advance and text them for any questions! I can't wait to try them again. It does cost a premium, but for a once in a while thing, I am happy to indulge ;)
