Leoda’s Kitchen and Pie Shop

Great pies!!! We tried the chicken pot pie, turkey pie and banana cream pie! The savory pies were a bit salty but still very tasty. The banana cream pie had a vanilla whipped cream on top of a banana cream full of nana flavor!
Intangibles: Definitey worth a stop on the way to Lahaina!

Short version: AVOID. Go to Maui Pie instead.
Long Version:
After multiple trips to Maui pie, I was eagerly awaiting a drive up to Lahaina to try out Leoda’s Pies. Seriously. Come on! 1088 reviews with 4.5 stars and multiple people recommending it? I was expecting some really good food.
Service was very prompt and friendly. That was the only amazing thing about this place. They take care of their staff. Anything other than their service was subpar.
Ordered:
Chocolate Mac Nut Mini Pie– lots of references to this in Unilocal reviews. Crust was mediocre and hard. No flaky pie crust here. It was plain Jane chocolate pudding topped with some whipped cream and some mac nuts sprinkled on top. Seriously?! #sonotimpressed. The pudding didn’t even have a smooth texture. The Jello packs I got as a kid tasted better.
Chicken Pot Pie– more like a creamy chicken stew topped with puff pastry. Their pastry dough was unimpressive and more greasy than flaky. No bottom pie crust either. Chicken filling flavor was mediocre and needed more seasoning.
Mushroom hand pie– finally. Something that tastes good. The diced mushrooms were well seasoned but they probably only put 3 tablespoons of filling to a lot of mediocre tasting pastry. I dug out the insides and ate them.
Pineapple Mac Pie– pie filling was actually good! Again. The bottom crust and pastry was a sad soggy greasy mess. They heated it up but it as clearly done in the microwave since the edges were hot and the centers were cold.
Total waste of gas. Total waste of time and hard lost calories to be able to eat something buttery and decadent. If you want pie, go down to Kihei and eat at Maui Pie.

We came here during our vacation. Love it! Our family had:
Pork pork sandwich
Seared ahi sandwich
Reuben sandwich
Home cut fries
Fried salad (fried Brussels sprouts and fresh salad greens)
Olowalu lime pie
Haupia-​chocolate pie
Lilikoi lemon drop drink
Lilikoi mimosa drink
Awesome! You walk up to order and pay, then your food is brought to you. Always a line, but worth it. Portions are very generous. We liked all our selections, but we did have to have the fries re-​done, which they accommodated easily, because they were a bit overdone. The new fries were fine.
All three sandwiches were great. I tried all of them, but my favorite was the «Pork-​pork». Bring an appetite! Service is friendly and prompt.

What a hoppin’ place for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. My party of four enjoyed everything: Reuben, Seated Ahi Sandwich, Pork Pork (think smoked ham), Fried Salad (Brussels Spouts), Fries with aioli, Chocolate Haupia Pie, Olowalu Lime Pie (think key lime), Lilikoi Lemon Drop, and Lilikoi Mimosa.
Although I had no intention of sharing my Haupia pie, the coconut pudding was too stiff (like Chinese kanten Jello), which caused me to share. The rest of my companions felt the same as I did and favored the Lime Pie.
Additionally, our fries arrived kind of over fried so we asked for do-​overs with no problem.
There’s something for everyone here. If there is a line, it moves fast.
