Was craving a donut and I was in the area so I decided to try Barrio Donas! It was kinda busy still and I got there about 10:30 am. Lots of the flavors were gone but I tried the Coco Mazapan which was gas!!! First the donut was hella soft and melts in your mouth. The chocolate and peanut drizzle was the perfect amount that didn't over power the doughnut. The horchata was not overly sweet and was a good choice too. Donuts are about $3 and some change each which is not bad cause you can taste the quality of each donut. Definitely recommend them if you in the area.
For years and years, I have heard nothing but amazing things about this donut shop. I thought it was OK but nothing earth shattering. I decided to stop in at 11:30 AM on a Wednesday morning after a Pilates class nearby. They donuts selection was kind of sparse. I should've taken a picture of the rack because most of the places were empty. There is also a Matcha bar that looks like it's supposed to be set up off to the side, but was not open. We picked out two beautiful donuts, the Chocolate Abuelita and the Cajeta. The Cata looked really nice, but was very plain tasting. The Chocolate Abuelita was definitely better and I liked the Mexican hot chocolate cream in the center. I would give this donut shop one more shot, just because of all the great things I've heard about it from people whose opinions I respect. Honestly, though, there are so many donut shops in town that if I don't find it better the next time I probably wouldn't return.
I tried the cafe de olla cold brew with horchata for the first time today and it's REALLY good! Definitely sweet so be ready for that, but I would order it again. The service was great. The lady at the counter greeted me immediately and asked how my day was going. She seemed genuinely kind. I love this place and it's convenient to a lot of other businesses so you can grab delicious coffee and donuts while you're running your errands.
My favorite donut place. They also have breakfast tortas and burritos. However, the true star of the show is their vegan horchata, where they use oatmilk instead of regular milk. Great from anyone who is lactose intolerant. I'm not but I think it tastes better than the regular horchata. They have also recently expanded to a matcha menu called Sana Sana bar. The menu is based on a Spanish nursery thyme to comfort kids who are hurt or upset. The staff is always nice and helpful and their donuts are also delicious.
We are in the market for a new donut place and decided to try this place out! It's located in Diane Square which has a nice large parking lot. The shop itself is very crisp and clean, I love the interior. They had a wide variety of Mexican inspired donuts. They are unique and classic flavors. We got the Chocolate Abuelita and Arroz con Leche. I loved the Abuelita!! It had that great chocolate spiced flavor and it was a fluffy delicious bite. It was just starting to get a little stale but it was barely noticeable and I did come around 830. My fiancee said her Arroz con Leche was delicious. Hers was soft and fresh and she loved the rice pudding center. We will definitely be back to try other flavors.
The food here is amazing, the donuts, tortas and even the coffee! Have been coming here since they started and the food has been consistently great. Staff are welcoming. Laura always puts a smile on customers' faces.
The best donuts and savory pork tamales and tortas served alongside the best Mexican coffee drinks from cafe de olla, horchatas, and champurrado. It's all made with much love and such great service by the welcoming ladies ready to serve you with a smile. The establishment itself is intimate but very inviting and clean with a handful of small tables. Still the reigning champ of donuts!
I love this place the only problem is they sell out so fast so if you go around 10am you might not get the donuts you want or the breakfast tortas . Coffee is ok . Horchata is 9/10 . My favorite donut is the Bigote,masapan . Would give five stars if they had better coffee and didn't have such a limited selection after 10am . Staff is always friendly 10/10
Super impressed by this shop! First time I had a sample was at a Yelp Event so I made sure to come back and try more of their menu items. The shop is cute and small, all you really need. There were a couple of seats in there if you wanted to dine in, but we ordered online and took ours to go. The flavors of their donuts are really unique. It stays true to Mexican Heritage with flavors such as Horchata, Chocolate Abuelita & Arroz Con Leche. We tried the Horchata [$3.00] which was really good & really got the flavor the drink. This was a better option than the normal chocolate glazed [$2.00] I got. It was still good, but I wish the coating of chocolate was a bit thicker. It was pretty think so once that flavor ran out, all you got was the dough. Which let me you was really good dough! Also tried their Egg & Cheese w/Bacon torta [$11.50] which didn't disappoint. Loved every bite! Big enough to share if you're not as hungry. Our order was ready for pick-up so we didn't wait that long & there is plenty of parking in the area. Overall, I'd definitely come back to Barrio Donas to try their other donut flavors as well as their tamales. They were sold out the day we went.
I went back last week.. not as good as it was last year. I ordered the cajeta donut and it was kind of flavorless. Also noticed that they haven't had the cocada donut for some time, which was my favorite. Hopefully they aren't cutting corners, it was good when I first starting going.
We are so happy to found this gem! Donuts are delicious and the Milanese & chavo tortas are a must!
This place has a cute interior and offers a fun variety of Mexican donut flavors like arroz con leche and Gansito, to name a few. The arroz donut actually had arroz con leche inside, which made it dense but enjoyable. I also tried their café de olla with horchata -- I ordered it with more café de olla than horchata, thinking it would be less sweet but it was still a bit too sweet for my taste. Flavor-wise, though, it was unique and worth trying. The breakfast torta was pretty good -- a bit more bread than filling, but still satisfying overall. The staff was friendly and welcoming. A couple of suggestions: I'd love to see a self-serve water station or at least water cups available. Also, for being the morning, it felt a bit too warm inside during my visit -- the AC didn't seem to be on or strong enough, which took away slightly from the experience as we dined-in. Small detail, their cups (hot and iced) had no logos of the business or stickers on them. Maybe it's just this location bc I noticed the other locations' cups have logos and such. Hubby asked about their stickers bc they had the display stand perched up top but the lady said they had not ordered any more. Shame because we would've bought them! Overall, a creative spot with delicious donuts -- just a few tweaks would make it even better!
loved the unique flavors & quality. we got a jamaica donut (the glaze tasted of real jamaica & not just flavoring) & a churro donut (the dough was rly like a churro, unlike most "churro" things that just have cinnamon sugar & call it a day). we went at a random time in the middle of the day & they still tasted fresh. reasonably priced too at $3 for specialty donuts, bougie places try to charge you double. also liked the cute lil sign - gordita, redondita y bien bonita :)

The best donuts I've had in a long time! I'm not a donut person in general but these were amazing! Dense, and not dry, and full of flavor!! Not overly sweet either which is good! I came down from the OC on Monday morning around 10am and they still had a pretty good amount of donuts. I was looking forward to the Payaso donut but they didn't have it. Which is okay cuz everything else was so good! Not shown in the picture but my friend got the fresas con crema drink and it was soooo good!! Next time I'm getting that too! I will definitely be back! read more

Hola Vanessa, thank you for visiting us! We're pleased to hear you…
Donuts are my go-to pastry, so I'm always down to clown when I find a good looking donut shop. I came here for the donuts, but they weren't even the stand out. First, the donuts. Barrio is throwing a Mexican antojito shop spin on the classics. You got simpler spins like an horchata donut to more indulgent options like choco marzapan. The donuts are good, solid offerings, but dwarfed by their tortas. The STAR to me, the tortas. Insane, delicious breakfast sandwiches. Breaded beef, thick sliced jalapeños, stacked to the gills. Just look at it. It feels like my wife's abuela is in the kitchen making it with love. read more

Stopped in to grab a sweet treat. Sunday around 2:30pm there was no line. The shop is very cute with simple but trendy decor. Their menu had hot breakfast items, coffee, and more. W We came for the donuts. 6 donuts for about $20. You order 6 you get $1.50 off. The donuts were named and inspired by Mexican/Hispanic culture. My favorite was the lemon donut. Followed by the guava. 4 stars because although the name and flavors were fancy, the donuts weren't very basic. read more

Date of Visit: 6.15.2025 Cuisine Type: Donut shop Vibe: Clean, chill, modern cafesque space Cost: ~$8-$15 per person depending on how much you order What I Ordered & How It Was: Most of the donuts has similar raised dough texture. They are fluffy with bit of bounce after the bite (very welcomed and surprising) Chocolate Abuelita (Hot Chocolate Glaze/ Chocolate Buttercream/Dark Chocolate Curls and tiny marshmallows) - 4/5 - The chocolate is very noticeable here... $3.75. Choco Mazapan (Peanut Butter Glaze/Mazapan Crumble/Chocolate Drizzle) - Mazapan is a peanut candy similar sounding to its sister marzipan which is an almond candy. - 4.5/5 - I liked the differing textures and mixture of peanut and chocolate. This layering of flavors gives a crunch as well as two unique flavors that naturally work well together. Gansito (Basically old fashioned in a bar form) - 5/5 - It is an old fashioned donut in bar form (I love old fashioned...so maybe biased). The dough is different from the other ones it is evenly deep fried on all side. This creates a crispy exterior followed by the cake like interior all covered with melted chocolate. Just the best Tamales (Chicken) - 5/5 - Literally the best tamales i've had in my life. It is NOT DRY! wow it is super tender and basically falls apart. The corn is not dry either it is very saturated with the chicken juice and maybe fat? The who experience of eating the tamales went from disinterest to sharing of such wonders to others (usually this comes out later so you can enjoy your donuts first while you wait) Service & Atmosphere: Service: Very friendly staff. It has modern donut shop vibes. You will still see the display window with all of your options. Just looks very well maintained. Ambiance: When i go here it usually isn't busy, but then it would be off-peak hours. Great space to just hangout and do morning stuff. Overall Thoughts: Best thing I ate: Tamales Something to improve: I am probably just grasping at straws here but i think the donuts dough to sugar ratio can be adjusted a lil bit maybe less dough? Would I come back? See ya next week! read more

Was going to Happy Barber on Clairemont Mesa and wanted to eat first. Normally, I'd try to drop by Ee Nami, but it wasn't open at the time. Decided to have a torta instead. If you see Cotixan next to the street, that's the center where this is located. Service was very friendly and fast. There is a beautiful display case of the various donut options. I asked for an opinion of which torta to get and was told to go with the Cubana. It was a good amount of food for the price and tasted fantastic. read more

My favorite Mexican donut and coffee shop. I love supporting unique local businesses and the owner is so friendly and kind. The croqueta donut was so soft and their glaze wasn't too overly sweet which I prefer. Don't skip out on their matcha menu to the right of the store. And I love their sticker collection. I've been to both locations also National City. Love their selection of tortas read more

If you are looking for a soft and fluffy donut, look no further!! I ordered the Horchata glazed and it did not disappoint. They had many unique flavors like Cajeta, Choco Marapan and Guayaba that will keep me coming back. I also ordered the Horchata & Olla iced coffee, and although a little sweet was a nice change!! I also will be back to try the torta. I missed out on their donuts at a yelp event, so I decided to give them a try myself. After reading reviews, I almost changed my mind. But the service was welcoming and patient as I made my choices. They also welcomed all their patrons kindly. I read an article posted on the wall that the new owners took over their father's previous Mexican donut business at this location. They have made great improvements and made it their own. read more

My boyfriend has been craving donuts for a very long time now and Barrio Donas really hit the spot. I'm not really a fan of donuts but these were honestly really delicious! Came here after a late lunch around 3pm and the donuts were still incredibly fluffy and not stale at all!!! I was SHOOK!!!! If you buy 5 donuts the 6th is half off or free, I don't quite remember. From my favorite to least: Chocolate Abuelita, Horchata, Lemon, Chocolate Sprinkles, Jamaica, Concha with Strawberry Sprinkles. The Chocolate Abuelita was hands down my favorite donut. It was a regular glazed donut with the top dipped in chocolate, covered in mini marshmallows and chocolate chips. The Horchata wasn't as cinnamon-y as I was expecting but it was still decent. The Lemon one was filled, it had a custard inside. Chocolate Sprinkles was a chocolate donut dipped in chocolate, with sprinkles. Although I enjoy Jamaica drinks, I thought this donut was a little too sour (which is pretty odd since I love sour tasting things). Least favorite was the Concha, it was too bread-like and dry compared to the fluffy goodness of the donuts. All in all the donuts were AMAZING!!! I could only imagine the massive selection if I had come in the morning instead of a late afternoon. read more

3.5 stars This place has a little bit of everything, They sell tortas, Mexican inspired donuts, as well as coffee. I went for the trifecta and got a bit of everything. A dozen donuts for work, a torta and a cold brew for myself. The Chilanga sorta ($13.75 +$1 for avocado) cam with Milanesa (breaded beef), ham, chorizo, beans, tomato, red onions, and mozzarella cheese. They asked if I wanted chipotle sauce and jalapeños, I said yes and also added avocado for $1. It was a tasty sandwich; light fresh bread, it wasn't too spicy despite the chipotle and jalapeños. I think the chipotle sauce is key. I got the large Moto cold brew ($6.75) and added horchata (free of charge.) It was very smooth, definitely taste the horchata, maybe. a bit too much, I guess I want to taste the coffee more. Still a very good option and an horchata cold brew as advertised. I got a dozen donuts for work you get a little discount if you order in increments of 1/2 dose. I chose all the Mexican inspired flavors, they have normal donuts but I wanted to try what was unique to this place and what I couldn't get at other places. I got the Guava, mango, creama, arroz con leche, Jamaica, choco mazapan, churro, Limon, Chocolate abuelita. I sampled a few of them. I liked the unique flavors of the Limon and the Jamaica. Some of the donuts were fresh and had a soft texture where some were older and dried out. Theres lots of parking in the lot of the strip mall. Service was friendly and helpful. I liked the unique flavors of the donuts, I liked the ones that were fresh. They have some vegan donuts too which I didn't try. It's $2 off 1/2 dozen or $4 off a dozen donuts. The torta was good but a bit on the pricy side, but I guess that's inflation. I'll probably try the preppa pig torta next time. Coffee by Cafe Motto was also a good choice to go with the donuts. read more

Their donuts are soft, fluffy, and packed with unique Mexican flavors like horchata, chocolate abuelita, and guayaba. The service is super friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy and modern. I went on a Saturday morning and the line moved quickly. Definitely worth trying their seasonal specials and pairing with a cafe de olla or horchata coffee. read more

Cute little donut shop with Mexican inspired flavors. Every donut was delicious, light, doughy and airy! Removing one star because of the service. There was one cashier working and 2 customers including myself waiting. A second cashier came to help the customer in front of me. As soon as she was done, the second cashier looked at me and left... why didn't she help me? Lol so I waited for the first cashier, who was very nice and helpful. read more

If you are into enjoying pretty decorated donuts and are in the La Jolla area, give this place a visit. So much has changed since your local neiborhood bakery of yesteryear as a kid or enjoying Hostess Twinkies or Loves donuts from the super market. The decorating colors are brighter, bolder and even more prettily embellished. Voodoo Donuts in Oregon or Krispy Kreme in Maui or Malasadas in Kapahulu... old time favorites now have another entry in the pastry scene. Doc bought a box of 6. Different with catchy names. Mine had the prettiest topping with mini marshmallow, teeny tiny chocolate curls and two types of chocolate. The taste: very sweet so I picked at the frosting and the good thing, the texture of the donut was so light and soft- the best part. Just like cupcakes hit the bakery scene years ago, donuts are the new kid that's trendy and may be in demand. read more

I stopped here for breakfast instead of going to the Mexican restaurant across the parking lot and was pleased to find they had a breakfast sandwich. I opted for the shredded beef torta, which was generously portioned and perfect for sharing, making it more reasonably priced. I was surprised by the high price of their donuts, but they looked spectacular--definitely something to try next time. The coffee was bold and offered free refills, which was a nice touch. The restaurant was sparkling clean and Instagram-worthy, with cool neon lights and decorations. The staff were incredibly fun and nice, adding to the overall positive experience. I will definitely be coming back. read more

Discovered this little gem last year, got hooked and came back. I wish I had a Barrio Donas in Arizona. They have a big variety of doughnuts. Our favorite are the Lemon one and the glazed croissants with Nutella. We tried both the green and red tamales. We like both but the red one is our favorite. This place has the BEST horchata coffee. We are obsessed with it. It's a small place with sitting area inside and some outside. The staff is friendly, patient and helpful with questions even when they are busy. read more
