Haven't been here since it used to be temporarily in the back corner. Nice to know the quality hasn't changed at all. Picked up three mochi donuts today Strawberry Pocky - thought this one would be the messiest but turns out it was ok. The pocky sticks don't add much flavor to the donuts but does give it a crunchy texture. The strawberry flavor is pretty light in these and the texture is like the other ones. Very good if you like a little sweet crunchy and springy donut. churro - best one out of the three if you love cinnamon sugar. As soon as you open the bag you can smell the flavor of this one. Texture and flavor is nice and not over powering. A little messy but delicious. ube - prob won't worst this one again. The ube flavor wasn't there at all and it just reminded me of a plain mochi donut. read more

I meant to return after my boyfriend claimed I didn't share with him the first time, which may or may not be true! I've had mochi donuts from Alimama Tea in New York, and I've been craving them. We were waiting for our reservation for a restaurant nearby, so we decided to make the trip! My indecisiveness got the best of me, and I got all six flavors. We later found out that our friends also got half a dozen. So we roamed around the supermarket and the rest of Chinatown with many, many mochi donuts. My ranking for them would be strawberry pocky, cookies & cream w cookie butter, matcha pistachio, taro pebbles, ube glazed, and lastly, cinnamon toast crunch. They all tasted delicious, so the ranking is all based on my personal preference of the flavors. However, the one downside is that when you have so many bites in one sitting like me, the flavors begin to taste similar, if not the same. But that is all on me for wanting to try every flavor and stuffing myself! And yes, I shared this time! read more

The hype is real! A mochi donut lives up to its name. The texture has that chew of a mochi and fluff from a donut. I appreciate their half a dozen means you can get all the favors they have (6). They shared they usually change their flavors every couple months and sometimes do something themed for an upcoming holiday, like St. Patrick's day, they might do something then. They have unique flavors and some really shine through! I wish the ube ones have more of a punch like the color of the inside. My favorite has to the cookies and cream. I don't know if it's because I ordered them around 1pm, but I feel like it would be even better if it's warm. But I guess I can warm them up in my oven or microwave for a bit. When I went, on a Sunday, there was no line. It's located inside Uwajimaya's food court. read more

Cute concept, but underwhelming. Came around closing during a Saturday and ordered both a matcha and cookies and cream dochi. After seeing all these donuts featured and trending on instagram I was hoping to bite into a super fresh, chewy donut but instead bit into a cold donut that lacked in texture. There wasn't that chew or crispiness I was looking for when it comes to a deep fried mochi dessert. The icing was also kind of forgettable. Would like to come here maybe earlier in the day and give it a try as I think I might have swung by while they were closing up and was given some old dochis. read more

Nothing better than a chewy Dochi donut. Didn't realize the day we went we happened to get there 10mins before they opened. We waited a bit as they ushered groups into the small back area of Uwajimaya. Really appreciated the signs in line to make it quicker/easier to choose your selection. We got 1/2 dozen, probably should've got the full but practicing some self control, right? Not really. We ate them all, lol. I love Mochi everything, but donuts are another level. It's like two of my favorite things had a baby. These are slightly crisp, chewy cake like and light in the middle. The rings are aesthetic AF and so are the boxes they come in. If you're trying to take a photo for IG good luck, not much room or seating area so get creative! Anyways, the flavors! The fruity pebbles was my #1, perfect amount of sweetness. Nothing too overpowering. The Ube Glazed comes in 2nd, delicious ube flavor not too decadent. Also tried the Mint Oreo (way cuter than it tasted) Chocolate + Almond (just ok, the donut itself tasted better than the toppings) Chocolate PB (good, nothing to rave about) Ube Bae (this one is plain Ube but I really enjoyed this one). My takeaway is the fruity pebbles + Ube glazed were my jam and flavor wise tasted the best. Hopefully the hype has calmed down so I can try the others, I like that they change up the flavors. PROS: chewy dochi donuts CONS: parking + cost (these specialty donuts aren't cheap) Trendy and tasty, definite recommend. read more

Dochi - Halloween dochi - Donuts Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Instagrammable does not equate to deliciousness. I fully believe that all the hype around these donuts were generated by instagram "influencers". And it worked very well because it got me waiting in line for 30 minutes. While these donuts were decent, the frosting brought them way down. They were unnecessarily sweet to the point where eating a quarter of one was sufficient. Not only that, but they didn't last too long. I ordered half a dozen and by late afternoon, all of them looked wet and soggy. Lastly, the thick donut boxes are too much. This is Seattle, let's do our part to save the environment. Thanks. read more

This spot is located inside Uwajimaya on the food court side, not sure why I looked on the produce side. Whatever. Came by to check these out, heard some hype about it so we decided to stop by on a Saturday afternoon. There was not much of a line or riot when we came by, so we had time to make our selections. We only tried 3, we got the Matcha Oreo, Taro Pebbles and the Ube Glazed. I wasn't impressed with the flavors because I could barely taste the difference between each of them. The flavors aren't very prominent and all I could really taste was the glaze. They all tasted really similar to me. I did like the squishy-ness, chewy-ness and the wonderful-ness of the texture of the dochi though, you can tell it's mochi. Staff was friendly and fine, prices are $3 for each dochi, there is a limit of only a dozen per person, if you want 24 dochi...bring a friend. Keeping them on my radar, Ill probably come back again to check out some other flavors.....maybe. read more

I've been chasing this place forever because of their wacky hours! But I finally caught it and I'm glad I got to try these unique donuts for the first time! We ordered the half dozen for $16 and we got two each of matcha oreos, cookies & cream with cookie butter, and strawberry pocky. My favorites in order were the strawberry pocky, the cookies & cream, and then the matcha oreos. I love the chewiness of the donut with the mochi filling. The flavor of the toppings on the donuts weren't powerful and I wish I could taste it a little more but overall they were all pretty good. They are $3 per donut which is a little pricey but man are they aesthetically pleasing! To be honest, we thought about getting just three for $9 but we wanted the nice box so that's why we ordered the half dozen. They're definitely worth getting for those nice Instagram pictures! read more

Dochi - From left to right: cookies & cream with cookie butter, strawberry pocky, matcha oreos - Donuts Near Me - Seattle, Washington

The best part about this place is the line isn't 30+ minutes. I went on a Saturday afternoon and the wait was about 5 minutes. It is not made to order as the poi doughnuts are already made opposed to made-to-order. I guess that is good because it lessens the wait time. There was a variety of flavors which is a big plus. When I came they had 6 different flavors to choose from. Matcha Oreos - I love matcha and the Oreo crumbs were a nice touch. Strawberry shortcake - very similar to the Good Humor ice cream bar and so good. Taro pebbles - amazing!!! Probably my favorite of the bunch, but I'm biased to matcha Oreos. Ube glaze - the least favorite of the bunch. It hardly had any flavor. I'd pass on this. Possibly any glaze they offer as well. read more

I was excited to try this place because Hawaii was the only place I've ever seen mochi donuts; I loved them there and was hoping this experience would be the same, or better. On a Sunday afternoon the line was pretty short and moving quickly, and I noticed that most people were ordering boxes by the half dozen or dozen--must be good, I thought. After scanning the menu, I was only interested in trying the "ube glazed" and "taro pebbles" so that's what I ended up ordering. The cost was my first surprise. Each donut is $3. Big surprise, everything is double the price in Seattle as anywhere else. These same donuts are $1.50 each at MoDo in Oahu! The taro pebbles was far better than the ube glazed, though it absolutely doesn't taste like taro, and more than anything tastes like fruity pebbles. The ube glazed also does not taste like ube, and was very dry as there is just scarce drippings of glaze across it. I also think that these mochi donuts need a higher ratio of mochi in the recipe, as they weren't as chewy and mochi-esque as the ones I had in Oahu. Overall I will not be a return customer unless I hear that they've improved their recipe, or perhaps lower their prices. read more

Dochi - Taro pebbles (good) and ube glazed (no good) - Donuts Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Who doesn't love doughnuts?! Well here is another item that I'm so excited for Seattle to finally have: Mochi doughnuts! YES. They're soft, fluffy and chewy all at the same time. My favorite flavors are the matcha and the ube! Also, you can't go wrong with the cookies and cream or fruity pebbles. I definitely recommend eating these the day of because they do get stale pretty quickly! read more

Dochi - Donuts Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I had my first experience with mochi donuts at Japantown, San Francisco and loved it so much that I was dreaming about them. When I found out Seattle had opened up mochi donut spot, I was thrilled! My expectation was HIGH!! Unfortunately after the first bite into a Dochi's mochi donut I was disgusted at how not "mochi" it tasted! It tasted almost like a normal donut to me! The "mochi-ness" was not there! Now it tasted like an overpriced, Instagram-able, interesting flavored, regular donut! Dochi, like the place at Japantown, San Francisco, has lots of fun and interesting flavors, but that alone won't impress me enough. No, if the mochi texture continues to be what i had experienced here, I will not be back. Sorry, not sorry! By the way, I have to mention that all the people who work here, are very friendly and efficient! read more

This isn't anything that great honestly. I definitely enjoyed getting to try this, but I wouldn't wait more than 3 minutes for this. Seriously the lines are ridiculous and not worthy. It's also not that chewy to me at all, so it almost just tastes like a regular donut. TLDR; wait for the bullshit hype to die read more

Wonderful fluffy dough! It tasted very similar to Mr. Doughnut in Japan! The icing on top isn't too sweet and these doughnuts are the perfect snack or dessert! These are also very instagrammable if you buy a dozen (for $13) and bring it to a Christmas party :) Highly recommend! They're not heavy like American doughnuts, so you could easily eat two or three without feeling full, so make sure you try them all! read more

Mochi donuts! What's not to love?! Dochi was my first taste of mochi donuts, and I've been hooked ever since. Dochi has so many good rotating flavors! I suggest looking on online for their current offerings. Some of my favorites have been Strawberry Fruity Pebbles, Pistachio, and Matcha S'mores. But honestly, I would probably inhale any mochi donut I get from Dochi! This Dochi is located inside Uwajimaya's food court. If you're driving, Uwajimaya has their own parking lot which can get packed. If you're patient there's street parking all around Chinatown. And if you're traveling by train, it's walkable from King Street Station! I've seen reviews mention the long lines. I've visited several times and sometimes there was a long line and other times there wasn't. So maybe plan your visit around high traffic times. Whenever I visit Uwajimaya in Chinatown, stopping by Dochi is a must! read more

A doughnut walks into a bar and meets mochi. They hit it off, hook up and create a dochi. I've never had a dochi before, so was excited to check out Dochi. It's been a popular spot in the International District inside Uwajimaya, with lines outside the door when it first opened. Yet, I can't seem to jump on the dochi bandwagon just yet. I came here after lunch where I found the variety of different mochi doughnuts. I love everything ube, so ordered the ube glaze. You order at the small counter where the staff packages your goodies for takeout. Because it's in the food court area of Uwajimaya, you can find seating there, but there's no designated seating for Dochi. The ube glaze doughut had a perfect mochi texture and I did like that it was lightly glazed, so wasn't overly sweet. However, the ube flavor itself tasted bland to me. I wished there had been more of that ube flavor I love so much, so it fell short. However, everything else about this dochi was perfectly executed. Perhaps another flavor would fare better, which I would be open to trying. Just bummed about the ube one since it's my fav. I'm glad Dochi provides a dessert that's different than the rest, and the staff were super friendly. Therefore, I'm hopeful that I'll have a better mochi doughnut the next time around. read more

Our old co-worker brought beautiful dochis to the office when he stopped by the office for a quick visit. I have seen them at Uwajimaya and never thought it was anything special or different than the other typical doughnuts. I knew it was mochi doughnuts but I did not realize how wonderful these little dochis are! They are mochi mochi texture, and not too sweet, even the flavoring is not so sweet. If anything, the topping of these dochis give the flavor to these almost plain flavored dochi. I had tried green tea with oreo, oreo, ube and other flavors. It is also a wonderful little gift for party as you can break these dochis into little ball pieces. I was stupid to have overlooked these dochis at uwajimaya. I was too focused on papa cream puffs. read more

Love the unique soft texture of the donuts and they are fun to split and share and you can break them off and eat them similar to Canadian Tim bits. Quite pricey at $17.62 including taxes for half a dozen but worth trying at least once. Lineup was out the door on a Sunday afternoon but wait was just under 25 mins and they do validate parking if your purchase is over 10 dollars. Tried all six flavours are the favourite was coffee red velvet. Was debating to get just two to share but so glad we went for the half dozen. When we went we originally thought it was a shirt lineup but the lineup was actually out the door and half a block didn't the street but the line does move fast. read more

With all the hype on Instagram, and seeing the long lines, I had pretty high expectations. We came right at noon as soon as Dochi opened, and there were about ten people in front of us who had been waiting before opening. We waited only about 10 minutes after doors opened, and knew what flavors we wanted to get. When we got up to the counter, the person working there was very off putting and not very welcoming for our first time there.. She made us feel rushed and that we didn't want to ask her which were her favorites or what she recommends. We ended up choosing 3, and she didn't speak to us the whole time, not even when handing them off. The best Dochi was probably the one with fruity pebbles. It was sweet from the fruit pebbles, but not from the donut or frosting. It was good, but definitely not worth the hype. I would rather have just a donut, or just enjoy my mochi. For $3 each, it just wasn't worth it. Yes, it is an Instagram worthy dessert, and if I had friends come to town, I honestly would recommend it as a touristy place to go, but I wouldn't describe it as my favorite dessert in Seattle. read more

Dochi - Donuts Near Me - Seattle, Washington

I was so excited for this place but honestly I was slightly disappointed.. I was in line for a little over an hour anticipating these would be well worth the wait. We bought half a dozen (one of each) and they were very underwhelming. Most of them tasted almost identical, rather than their unique flavors. The Ube Glazed was the one I wanted to love but you don't taste the ube at all... more of the sugary glaze instead. Update after coming home to them a few hours later: the nice and firm texture of the fried donuts turned pretty soggy.... and the fruity pebbles on the Taro Pebbles turned stale :( They don't last very long so you better eat them all right after you buy some. They're pretty to look at but the flavors overall is sub par. Maybe I'll try them again another time read more

Dochi - 1 of each flavor - Donuts Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This is the first location I visited! Experiences have always been positive, initially there were long waits and lines, nowadays it's pretty quick. My favorite remains the fruity pebble one. I think Dochi's mochi-doughnuts are superior to all other mochi-doughnuts, they're denser and chewier. Others have been light and airy, but I think if there's going to be mochi in anything, there needs to be some dense chew! Try a few flavors and share what your favorite is : - ) read more

I was so excited when I first heard that Dochi was coming to Seattle. And then I found out my sister knew the owner and it was like the stars aligned. She told me the grand opening was this weekend and I figured there was no way I'd get my hands on any...then I saw a mutual friend in line who picked up a half dozen for me so that I wouldn't have to wait! First bite was literally Amazing. Yes, amazing with a capital A in the middle of a sentence. Texture is great, fluffy and with a slight chew. You can definitely tell there is mochi inside of the dough. Some flavors were lacking but honestly they were all overall good. Worth the wait for sure. 1. Ube- perfection. Even purple on the inside. 2. Fruity Pebbles- so good, frosting wasn't too sweet. 3. Cookies and Cream w/ Cookie Butter- surprisingly good! 4. 2 Way Tie= Matcha Cookie not overpowering / Strawberry Shortcake-just a hint of strawberry flavor. 6. Churro- mainly because it reminds us of Pip's cinnamon and Nutella, so nothing too crazy. Babe says we will for sure Dochi again. read more

Delish!!! I think this was the first Mochi doughnuts in Seattle. Huge lines. I waited! They even had limits on how much you can buy etc. Now you can buy as many as you want. I first tried this last year. Flavors rotate but some are original and they stay. White chocolate & Gingerbread cookies mochi, Dochi's matcha mochi, Strawberry fruity pebble x matcha Oreo, Matcha, strawberry Mochi and Oreo are a few that I tried. Matcha being my favorite, followed by fruity pebbles and strawberry being my least favorite. Glaze was too sweet for me. Also wish there was more Mochi in the doughnuts for that chewiness. But it's still made me return. Waiting to find that one perfect flavor though. They also sells out fast even now in pandemic. Check/ order before you go. Parking is easy/ free with purchase. And doughnuts are fun and makes a great gift. read more

Dochi -- where the donut meets the mochi (or is it the other way around?). Anyways, I came here over the weekend with my parents and brother. The wait in line was short and moved quickly. We waited about 5-10 minutes. My brother was surprised, since he mentioned that there is typically a very long line. We couldn't decide on which flavor we wanted, and it was my parents' and my first time ever trying mochi donuts, so we went with the half dozen (one of each flavor). I thought the donuts were good, although pricey (down a star). There's definitely a different consistency to them, and they're more chewy. As other Yelpers noted, the flavor of the donut is really from the icing/frosting. If you've never tried a mochi donut before, I think it's worth a try (although you don't necessarily need to try every flavor like me and my parents). You can find this place near the entrance (or is it the exit?) of the food court inside Uwajimaya. read more

My friend and I just finished up eating at a restaurant around the corner and had a little bit of a sweet tooth craving. And MUST I SAY, Dochi is the perfect treat after a meal I personally rarely eat donuts because of how sweet they are but the airy-ness, texture, and flavor of these Dochi donuts are the perfect amount of sweetness. We ended up buying half a dozen, one of each flavor, just because we couldn't leave without trying everything. Final favorites? Ube Glaze and Coffee Red Velvet Highly suggest getting these bad boys read more

My girlfriend and I ordered 5 mochinut flavors, ranging from Ube Glazed to the Taro Springetti. We enjoyed all flavors, especially the strong, taro flavor of the Taro Springetti. Fun story: my girlfriend and I thought the Ube Glazed mochinut was a regular mochinut glazed with ube-flavored suace. After taking a bite, the bright purple color inside revealed its true identity: an ube-flavored mochinut that has been glazed! Overall, we enjoyed the wide selection of different flavors. read more

Dochi - Donuts Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Us LA folks are pretty spoiled with all the latest trendy foods. So it's hard not to compare Dochi to Hawaii-based Modo Donuts. My expectations were pretty high coming into Seattle's Dochi. But I didn't necessarily come out disappointed. Dochi is a pretty small stand. On a Saturday afternoon there was a small line. The reason why the line goes quick though is because a lot of their donuts were outside for a while. After purchasing some, I noticed that they deliver the donuts to the small stand. That said, the mochi donuts would have tasted way better if they were warm and freshly made. The consistency of the mochi is there and the available flavors are a hit or miss - the matcha oreo may be the best. The concept of a chewy donut is cool and I understand the hype. They're tasty but also a luxury. I wouldn't not regularly pay $3 for a donut that barely fills me up. Cool place to stop by if you're in the area but not a huge recommendation. read more

Dochi - Matcha oreo, glazed ube and strawberry pocky. - Donuts Near Me - Seattle, Washington

Recently, I got to try three flavors at a friend's picnic: matcha oreo, ube bae, and maple bacon. Personally, I liked them in that order. These mochi donuts are quite different from regular donuts. When you first dig into them, they feel airy and light. However, as you continue to chew down, there's actually a bit of resistance and chewiness. Kinda like eating mochi! These donuts are great for sharing, since you can easily split them out into little bite-sized balls. Priced at $15 for a half dozen, they cost just about as much as artisanal donuts. read more

This one is located inside Uwajimaya at the food court. Donuts are already made and ready to go. For one dozen? $28.00. Should you tip? It's up to you.

My friends and I went here after eating some Chinese bbq, craving something lightly sweet. Dochi really hit that spot. Each donut was soft, gooey, and chewy - and depending on what you get, crunchy. I got the chocolate cookie crumble and strawberry pocket donuts, and all were lightly sweet, each ingredient did not overpower another. That extra crunch from the cookies/pocky really gave the mochi donuts great texture. The pocky however did fall off the donut quite easily, still worth it! Just a heads up if you prefer your toppings to stay on the donut :) read more

Mochi texture with a pull apart style donut!! Whaaaaat?! Changing flavors that are spot on on taste. Original store in Orlando FL, 2nd store is this one... lucky us Seattlites. Don't buy into the hype you may get disappointed with high expectations. My husband was underwhelmed by it all. But if you like donuts and mild mochi chew this will be excellent match made in heaven. I find on the slightly sweet side, but that did not stop me. My favorite flavors: Taro Pepples, Strawberry Banana Pocky, and Cookie and Cream with Cookie butter. Matcha Oreos is a good flavor combo and does not lack luster but it was the only donut they left some weird residual in my mouth. $3/donut or $16 for half dozen. Located in Uwajimiya food court area, last store from the grocery store, closest to Weller St entrance. read more

All the hype! Finally got in line and boy was I pumped! I've never had mochi donuts before so I can't really compare, but boy was my first bite underwhelming. We waited less than 30 minutes. Got 1/2 dozen at $16. Strawberry pebbles, ube glaze, churro Nutella, and the biscoff one. The texture of a firmer/denser cruller... like a raised donut but with a little more chew. The strawberry tasted very medicine like, ube might as well have been plain glazed, churro nutella was ok and the bicoff was probably the most flavorful. I would wait this out once the hype dies down. Also- if you are just dying to have a mochi donut but don't have the patience to wait, there's always Oh Mochi available. read more
