Manuela Malasada & Coffee Co. is a cozy and charming restaurant that serves delicious malasadas, which are Portuguese doughnuts with various sugar coatings and fillings. The malasadas are soft, fresh, and warm, with generous fillings like haupia, ube cheesecake, and lilikoi with li hing. Customers can enjoy a little seating area both inside and outside, making it nice to sit and wait. The shop offers a variety of drinks, including delicious coffee and Mexican Mocha. While the wait for malasadas is usually around 5-10 minutes, some reviews mention a short wait but emphasize that the malasadas are worth it. The restaurant is cash-only but also accepts Venmo, so customers should come prepared. Parking is available nearby, though it can be busy during peak hours. The friendly staff helps make the experience enjoyable. Overall, Manuela Malasada & Coffee Co. is a small but popular spot for fresh malasadas and good coffee.
