The ingredients are fresh and good quality. I have not had anything bad ever here. They even piped in fresh cream to some item as they are purchased. The Spinach feta bagel is stuffed and so delicious. I live the texture of the bagel. The bakery front is super cute and clean looking. They have 2 tables with chairs if you want to sit there and eat. I recommend getting here early. They sell out.

I do see what the bad reviews about texture are talking about- I do a lot of gluten free baking myself and I think the issue is these have so much rice flour they are almost like mochi?

When I looked at the selection the donuts are donut holes in a wide variety and creative flavors.

I couldn't pin down an exact flavor I liked more than another but they were all top notch and very good. The donut holes tasted fresh and were very satisfying! A good stop!

I stopped in a little after 11am on a weekday, and was the only person there. Service was very…read morefriendly and patient with my questions, as this was my first visit. The donuts are self-serve with trays and tongs. They had a wide variety available. I selected a original glazed, a pretty in pink (strawberry glazed), a chocolate and a pandan. I also ordered two K-dogs (Korean-style elevated corn dogs), and a classic pearl milk tea with the standard brown sugar boba. My order was ready in less than 10 minutes. My drink was a pretty standard boba drink. Good, but nothing special. The drinks are very customizable, with ice amount and sweetness level just two of the options. The K-dogs were really tasty. I got an Potato Dog (which is a corn dog covered with crispy potato cubes and served with a fry sauce). The other dog I chose was the Gochujang Dog: their standard corn dog with Gochujang sauce. You have the option of having your K-Dog stuffed with mozzarella, a hotdog, or half hotdog and half mozzarella. I did half dog, half mozzarella on both. The cheese made the K-Dogs like huge fried mozzarella sticks. I enjoyed both, they were huge, and I ended up splitting them with a friend. I had both sauces on the side as my order was to go, and both complimented the rich cheese/dogs nicely. The fry sauce was rich and tangy, and the Gochujang a little spicy and a little sweet. The donuts were good too. This was my first time trying mochi donuts. The mochi flour gives the donuts a firmer and denser texture than your standard donut. I love other mochi desserts, but here I missed the lightness and melt-in-your-mouth quality of regular donuts. That is more of a personal preference, but something to be aware of, especially if you are sensitive to textures in food. It seemed like most of the individual flavors of each donut came more from the toppings rather than the donut itself. That isn't unusual with donuts of any kind. The service was awesome, and I was intrigued most by the K-Dogs. I will be back when I am in the mood for an different kind of treat.

My daughter fell in love with their mini sprinkled donuts and they were really excited to see that they had vegan donuts, as we've been on a search for local vegan donuts for 2 years! That day they were completely sold out of vegan minis though, so the following weekend we all went back hoping to get some vegan ones. They weren't parked at river front any more so I tracked their number down threw yelp. Andrea who's the owner of the business was super friendly and even offered to deliver me 6 mini vegan donuts to wherever I was!!! Not only vegan donuts but delivered right to me! How awesome is that!?!? We met up later that day and her donuts were amazing!! This has to be the coolest little traveling donut shop ever!! I highly recommend their donuts whether your vegn or not! Super yummy and such sweet people!

Hanging from the ceiling are roughly a dozen colorful umbrellas. There is no shortage of visuals in this restaurant. The food: Beignets - we tried the classic and the Berry White. Both were great, but I'd give a slight nod to the original. The one buried in powdered sugar helps keep the texture of the Beignet. The Pickle Gambit - super thinly lengthwise sliced pickles in a light batter. Comes with chipotle aioli and ranch. Good portion size. One of the best fried pickles I've ever had. Ned's 5-Alarm Chicken - really good crust and very flavorful. One regret is we didn't go waffles with this. Lemon Poppyseed Slaw - tastes like a classic slaw. A little sweet and creamy. Goes really well with the heavier dishes that we got. The Shrimp Incident - small shrimp and sliced sausage with a Cajun cream sauce and crostini. We thought this was ok Country Mac - my favorite part was the fried chicken as it was very tender and flavorful. The shell shaped pasta was cooked al dente - it was firmer than I would like partly due to the pasta being on the thick side. The Mac is Cajun forward and not very cheesy. Staff was very friendly. We enjoyed our meal, but it was definitely on the heavier side and could have used something to balance it out.

I've never had problems with the customer service here, they just don't talk very much so I can see why people get the impression that they're "rude". The donuts here are delicious and reasonably priced. Though, I don't recommend getting their biscuits & gravy or angus burger here because they're just frozen microwaved items bought bulk from Costco. They used to have a FROYO section at the other end of the restaurant, but it's no longer here. They still haven't changed their sign outside...

I grew up loving Daynight, so this comes from a heartbreaking place for me. This is the second time…read moreI've been to their location in the last year and the donuts were pathetically under filled. We ordered 3 boxes each go for about $20 now, and found that most of the donuts were under-filled. The one pictured was supposed to be blackberry filled glazed, the pastry itself was still good how I remember (on this donut anyway, the coconut creams tasted stale) but it only had about a teaspoon of filling- and the other two blackberrys had the exact same. Apart from jellies all other filled donuts we had were severely under-filled. I wish I could say the service was good instead but the lady at the counter was quite rude while waiting for our order making a grand statement about how she had things in the back to do (I've worked customer service, I understand being busy or understaffed but her tone was enough to send my mother out the door) we had a large order- it was going to take time, but her attitude was out of place. It did not feel like the daynight I used to know. Will be going to the other location and praying for better result- never coming back to this one.

One meal was enough to feed me all day, and the Spanish coffee I got was mixed perfectly.

Other reviews mention rude service staff, but my experience was the total opposite. I wish I could've gotten her name to give her a shout-out. :) I do have to mention the lack of parking.

The bacon was delicious: thick, hot and crispy. The orange juice was very expensive and overpriced. The sunflower toast was barely buttered. The parking lot is very small and I didn't see any close street parking. There are steep stairs to the entrance. The entire place is very small. There was a child screaming and the wait staff wear whatever they wish. Overall, the food was delicious. But, one blueberry pancake cost $11.00 while two pancakes cost $20.00! My breakfast for one cost $39.00!!! I mean, really, $40.00 for breakfast for One Person! And, I had to wait 40 minutes, parking was a big problem and the wait staff looked sloppy and were rude. I don't think this restaurant is worth it.
