These Malasadas are legit!Those filled ones, I could easily smell the fragrant coconut and vanilla creams before I tried to pick them up with one hand and nearly broke my wrist they were SO stuffed with deliciousness.Super quick service with a smile!Hot and delicious!We honestly could not have asked for anything more.We went to the truck at Waikele outlet Center.Easy parking and multiple other opportunity for bits and pieces to grab for the day.

What a delightful treat after hiking Koko Crater! We'd heard about Leonard's Bakery from multiple people, along with the long lines, so finding this little Leonard's mobile wagon was a delightful surprise. We learned that malasadas are Portuguese fried donuts and I don't think I've ever had a donut I don't like. Leonard's mobile wagon malasadas were fresh and hot. We tried a variety, original sugar with haupia (coconut filling), original sugar without filling, and cinnamon sugar without filling. Each one was absolutely yummy! A perfect post-hike snack, and we'll definitely be back!

Yummm!If you haven't had a malasada from Leonard's Bakery, you are missing out on one of Hawaii's most iconic treats! The food truck brings the same delicious, melt-in-your-mouth malasadas that made the original bakery so famous, but with the added bonus of convenience. I grabbed a couple of malasadas while visiting the food truck, and they were perfection. Golden, crispy on the outside, soft and pillowy on the inside. The sugar coating was just the right amount of sweetness. They offer a variety of fillings--my favorite was the classic custard, but the chocolate and haupia (coconut) were amazing too.The service was friendly and fast, even with a bit of a line. It's clear that Leonard's Bakery cares about maintaining the quality and consistency of their malasadas, whether you're at the original location or the food truck. It's a food truck so nothing special or nice ambience but the malasadas are the highlight

As much as I like to go to the store I went to growing up in Kapahulu, the mobile "food truck" style still does a great job. I know there is one in Waikele and one in Koko Marina shopping center.You have to eat these hot to really enjoy them. There are lots of options but the original is what made them famous so I'd definitely get those. The filled ones are good, but not as good, to me, as the original.Enjoy!

This is the only kind of breakfast worth waking up for and immediately hitting the road to pick these up and demolish My favorites are plain, cinnamon, coconut, custard, or guava filling depending on the sweetness I'm going for. The coconut filling is not too sweet and just a hint of coconuts. LiHing flavor when I'm feeling sassy and have a cold bevvy to go with it.

First time having a Malasada and it was amazing! Loved the custard filling inside, especially when it was warm.

These things are served hot and first bite is amazing. This location doesn't have all the filling flavors, I don't think. I know for sure this one doesn't have guava and I've seen other locations have guava.We came to this location two different times. The filled ones are great, but the ones without filling are delicious up until you get to the middle of them. The middle is kinda raw in our opinion, very doughy. Our friend visiting that has gone to another location said hers were perfect so maybe we just had to go to a brick and mortar location.I'm back in the mainland and just wish I could go get a couple fresh ones real quick.

When I think of malasadas in Hawaii, it's instantly Leonard's.They've perfected these little doughy delights over the years. The service is great and we did not have to wait, and the malasadas? Even better.We got a dozen hot malasadas with 2 of each flavor: original, cinnamon, lihing, original custard, original dobash, and original haupia.All ono!!!

We picked up a box first thing in the morning on a Sunday when they just opened and the malasadas were bitter tasting like the oil needed changing as you can see in the pic the dough looks dark almost burnt. Please change the oil more frequently! The malasadas were horrible and we were very disappointed! DO NOT go here!
