    This donut shop has been on my bucket list for a while, and I finally got to try it because the seasonal Afternoon Tea series was just too gorgeous to resist! The one crowned with a radish flower is Jardin Fraîche. It's a savoury donut filled with herb cucumber cream, inspired by the tea sandwiches in a traditional afternoon tea set. So refreshing! This was my favorite of the three. I've never had a donut that tasted like this before. The red one is the Raspberry Milk Tea flavor. The tartness of the raspberry balances the sweet English milk tea cream filling perfectly. I also love the tiny scone on top. It's just so cute! The last pink one is Peach Apricot. It was a bit too sweet for me, but my husband liked it. Either way, the handcrafted buttercream flower on top is absolutely lovely. These donuts are definitely pricey at $9-10 each, but the flavors are so creative and every single one is a work of art. I'd happily pay for them again

    Had the kimchi croissant masubi. Flaky, crispy and not spicy. A must order. I got the Boston cream filled pastry. Too much cream. But delicious. No seating inside but a few tables out side. Lots of workers that were friendly. Not too sure I will come back

    I finally got to try this Fremont staple for the first time after everyone and their moms recommended it. Immediately upon entry, you can see the huge display of neatly arranged donuts, malasadas, and pastries and they all look amazing! So many flavors to choose from that it was a little overwhelming. As others have said, the price point is around $5.50 per piece so have that in mind going in. Ordering was simple enough and servers were kind and patient. Parking is maximum 3 hours and there are some tables and chairs outside to sit and enjoy your goodies. Overall, I think I'm still going to stay loyal to Doughweime in Union City, but these malasadas do live up to the hype. Everything bagel malasada: Surprisingly really good, a light cream cheese filling with everything bagel seasoning on the outside. And the texture of the savory donut was crispy and airy. 9/10 Strawberry cream malasada: Kind of plain, would've been good with strawberry bits inside. 7/10 Biscoff cream malasada: You can taste the real Biscoff crackers in the filling. 7.5/10

    Clockwise: strawberry, blueberry lemon, Easter nest, tiramisu

    I'm still recovering from the sticker shock. I haven't been here in a while, but yesterday I paid $33+ (before tip) for four donuts - that means if I had gotten a dozen, it would've been $100. Not sure if the prices were posted, but apparently I'm the idiot who didn't look hard enough. Didn't get a chance to try them since they were a present for a friend, but I hope they tasted as good as they looked!

    I saw a few post about this place and wanted to try it out. All the donuts look very pretty. Very instagram-able. But they are pricey definitely way more than I would usually spend on donuts. Parking can be a little tough. The shop doesn't have seats inside, so you'll have to eat it out. The donuts look amazing but they didn't quite taste as good as they look. More doughy filled than expected, I thought they be like and airy to bite into, but not really. Looking good doesn't translate to tasting good

    The parking situation can be a problem. By luck we were able to find a spot. I picked up some donuts and pastries from this small shop with just a few patio tables outside. It's a pick up and go service. They most definitely run out of certain items so the best thing to do is look up their menu. It will allow you to see what is available and what's sold out. My family enjoyed everything, their favorites were the banana and biscoff cream filled pastries. Delicious and not too sweet. They have coffee and tea options and I decided on the lemonade tea. Nice and refreshing. Nice spot for something unique and sweet.

    The setting of the store reminds me of those cafes you see in Korean dramas. Its very clean, modern and in my opinion a timeless interior design. When you walk in, youre greeted with a huge display case of their beautiful donuts! I came in for the first time the other day and I was greeted with a warm welcome upon walking inside. (It wasn't busy at the time i went so i got to take my time choosing my donuts). Amber was so sweet, she helped me box up my order and went over the flavors of the donuts i chose before closing the box in front of me. I got the black sesame, churro, matcha hazelnut, chocolate hazelnut, melona and the blueberry cream filled. Let me tell you these donuts are perfect if you dont like anything too sweet. My mom who usually splits one donut over the span of 3-4 days to finish, ate her entire blueberry donut in one sitting without even sharing. They do recommend that you enjoy them asap or to place them in an airtight container so they don't dry out. I did not do so, so my donut dried out (eating a dry but delicious day old donut as i write this). All in all my experience was amazing and I will definitely be coming back to try that guava donut if its there!!! I also recommend checking out and exploring their website. They have a gallery of the donuts they've created and case studies of how they come up with their flavors!

    I made a big ol trek for this one on a workday, as I did a little donut run for my coworkers and I. The shop is pretty small with no seating available but the staff are super kind. They do sell out of flavors, so if you're looking for some of their popular flavors, I'd recommend going early or preordering. I've tried a couple of their donuts and one of their savory pastries and this is my ranking: 1) Tiramisu 2) Kimchi spam puff 3) Cookies n cream 4) Vanilla cream 5) Churro Dulce de leche The tiramisu was a friend's recommendation and it was DELICIOUS. I didn't know it was a filled ring donut prior to buy it but it was a nice surprise! I only wish I'd gotten more than one. The kimchi spam puff was flaky, salty, with a hint of spice that really woke me up in the morning. I personally wish the cookies n cream was a little more vanilla with cookies forward, but it felt a little more chocolate forward. The vanilla cream was pretty standard, so I would say that it's a good basic staple if you're not sure what to get. Churro was my last pick, but it was still a very good donut. Just a little more on the messier end.

    I'm drooling

    Coming back here after years, those savory everything donuts are as perfect as I remember. I would still eat these for breakfast everyday if I could. Perfectly puffy with a delicious and fluffy whipped cream cheese in the middle. It looks like a corporate chain but it's actually a local business. (They even wrote it on the wall so people wouldn't confuse it!) Love the local spot delivering such a excellent product in a beautiful space. Great spot!

    We came by this place when we're taking a walk by fremont and everything looks so good the moment you enter the shop. Service was good too, they were fast and really accommodating. We decided to try 4 of their donuts: Hazelnut: 10/10, not too sweet and it was fresh, dough was still soft. Melona: 10/10, really good melon flavor, not too overpowering and blends well with the dough. Mango Cream: 10/10, mango cream was not artificially flavored, really tasted the sweet mango and sugar donut was really good. Strawberry Cheesecake: 10/10, honestly my favorite of all the 4, strawberry on top was really fresh, it also has this cheesecake filling inside that surprisingly really tasted like cheesecake, unlike other places that only put a heavy dollop of cream cheese filling. Highly recommend trying this flavor out. Drinks: Calamansi: 10/10, if you love calamansi juice, this one is a good hit, it's sour and refreshing just how calamansi juice tastes back home in the Philippines. Caribbean Smoothie: 10/10, really refreshing and pairs well with the donuts we ordered. Would definitely come back!

    Guava Cheesecake, Pistachio Cream, Chocolate Hazelnut

    I was in the area with a friend yesterday so we decided to stop by as I had this place bookmarked. There's street parking (2 hour limit) in front but there's also a lot in the back. We both found parking easily when we arrived. There are so many good choices here; all of the donut flavors looked really good! It was definitely hard to choose, but I ultimately went with a Pistachio Cream, a Guava Cheesecake, and a Chocolate Hazelnut. All of the donuts were soft and fluffy. The Pistachio Cream was a cream-filled donut with sugar sprinkled on the outside. The cream was really good and the amount was perfect. The Guava Cheesecake had a guava glaze and biscuits on top. There was also a cream layer on the inside. Although I don't usually go for guava desserts, this was good. The Chocolate Hazelnut was more simple and didn't have a filling like the other two. I also got to try the Tiramisu and Black Sesame that my friend got. The Tiramisu was similar to the Guava Cheesecake in that it had the cream layer on the inside. The Tiramisu was delicious. The Black Sesame was also really good; I liked that the black sesame flavor was strong.

    Bun Appetit has been on my radar for quite some time now. Definitely a sweet treat that's worth splurging on every now and then, as they have very unique flavor combos, and some of your more traditional flavors. We tried the filled pistachio donut and passionfruit donut. The pistachio filled bun was great, not overly sweet, which I enjoyed. You definitely receive a taste of the rich pistachio butter/cream, and it balances well with the airiness of the actual bread. My personal favorite was the passionfruit donut, because you REALLY taste the passionfruit. Definitely premium donuts sourced with real ingredients, and you can tell with each bite. We came around 2pm and they still had quite a few donuts left, and we were grateful we got to choose from their whole selection. Service was quick and efficient! I'd love to come back in 2026 to try their guava flavor, and any speciality flavors they concoct.

    It's been wanting to we visit Bun Appétit and I am glad we finally did. We got the Delgano latte which was delicious. Got the mango, guava, biscoff &mocha bun. My favorite from all of them is the mocha bun $5 each. It's soooo good. We had it warm up for us and we finished it while waiting for our coffee. It was so good. Glad we ordered 2 so my kids can try it. My daughter fav is the biscoff. They are pricey but it's good though. There is no seating area inside. Which I hope they would create one.

I've never had an issue picking up anything here either through online orders or simply walking in to grab a cake. The staff are always on top of things. Now let's talk about the cakes. If you don't order ahead of time or reserve a cake in advance, then expect the consequences of not planning ahead. The cakes they have on display or the back may not taste the freshest. But in my particular case, I've been fortunate enough that every cake I bought from here was fresh and moist. The staff would even be kind enough to grab one from the back for me without even asking. I bring this up because for bakeries through put is very important on how fresh their products are and this location definitely goes through their inventory constantly. For mother's day they basically ran out of all their cakes so plan ahead for those big occasions. What I also appreciate is they are always able to do a special message for you free of cost, and I always end up tipping extra because you can rarely find this type of service at other cake shops. Because of their flexibility and availability, I will always recommend this location to family, friends and to you as well. Plan ahead and this place won't disappoint.

They also offer a variety of pastries, desserts, and sandwiches, so there's something for everyone to enjoy. The prices are very really reasonable. Most pastries are $3-6, and the drinks are in the $4-7 range depending on the size. This is better than most other coffee and tea shops, especially in the Bay Area!! As for the interior, there's lots of seating, and every time I visited there are many people studying or working on their laptops. The music isn't too loud, but sometimes locals are chatting pretty loudly (so studying and working here is hit or miss). My only criticism (which isn't every time) is the speed of service when it's busy. The staff is always friendly, but it often looks like there are only two or three people working. Because of that, sometimes it can take longer for an order to be ready, and I once received my "warmed up" pastry a little cold since they probably forgot about it and were working at the cashier counter or making drinks. Overall, I definitely recommend Suju's if you're looking for an affordable coffee shop with lots of menu options and a place to study or work on chill assignments and projects.

We got the chicken quesadilla and it tasted like frozen pizza and bland and undercooked and was overall very underwhelming. EVEN MORE CONCERNING, three slices had chicken bone my friend accidentally swallowed it and could have choked. furthermore it is supposed be chicken breast so i have no clue how they got bone in there. terrible experience with the new workers and very disappointed about this recent trip.
