    Don Corleone would make Don Gomez an offer he couldn't refuse: 100 more churro locations They're doing just fine with their brick and mortar store in Santa Ana tho. I'm not a big sweets/dessert guy but I actually sought out this place and it delivered. Boy did it deliver, DoorDash couldn't have done better. Their ice cream is awesome too. The cold/hot, sweet/salty, soft/crunch, yin & yang dance your mouth does after each bite will make you glad you hunted for parking, walked past sus stores, avoid eye contact w/ full goth pedestrians, and resist the savory wafts of taco trucks to get to this sweet savory slice of heaven.

    Churros w/ icecream :D so yum

    Love love loveee this place. The churros w/ icecream make the perfect sweet treat! Wait times can be long, I've waited up to 20min (even more on some days) but there's always a taco truck right next to it that we eat while we wait lol. Plenty of parking, so most people wait in their cars for their order (they have a buzzer they give you to alert that the order is ready). However, many groups just hang around and chat with some stand up tables & benches scattered around. Service is always kind & fast. Will always come back here when I crave churros. Side note: they also have opened an actual storefront in Santa Ana apparently, so if the truck line gets long you can go there instead (10mins~ ish away from truck).

    Tried single traditional and single don gomez churros and got chocolate and cajeta on the side. Both churros were sooo good. the single traditional is very fried with soft center, quite sugary though! Boyfriend thought it was a smidge too greasy but I wasn't bothered and thought it was delicious. First time trying a don gomez churro - They gave it to us w/ cajeta. and it was dang good. definitely a different experience and would've been even better with ice cream. kind of like a churro baguette. didn't think i was going to like it but i really did. it's a food truck. no wait on a thursday night. had some benches to sit on. parking is plentiful in the lot. YUM. 3.25 for traditional, 3.75 for don gomez.

    stumbled upon another Don churro's location. It's dangerous now that I find out that the food truck is pretty close to me. This time I tried their Don churros, but I still love their regular churro sticks. It's very airy and never change since the first time I tried them. Expect a long wait because this couple of food trucks are around here so this parking plaza can get pretty crowded. They have a lot of lights so it's pretty bright.

    Such a solid spot for freshly made churros! The texture is perfect: crispy on the outside yet airy/soft in the inside. It was busy on a weekend as expected but we received our box of churros within 10-15 minutes. Parking can be a pain since it's mostly metered parking. There was a lot nearby but it was closed when we went. There were a few tables inside but definitely not for big parties and it can feel a bit narrow/tight on a busy day.

    Our family really enjoyed the fresh churros! The two sweet ladies in the back waved us over to give the kids churros on the house while we were waiting in line. Great service, great food.

    I got an obsession for churros, and after hearing so many good things about Don Churros Gomez, I finally made my way out there to try it. Couldn't decide on which version to get so we got both the traditional and the donchurro. The traditional one is a classic and was really good! The donchurro one allows for a filling inside, but we decided to get it plain and got a side of chocolate and cajeta dips. If you're gonna get the donchurro, the cajeta is the way to go - really enhances the experience. It's more doughy than a traditional churro and does not have a crunch (more like a pastry bread), but still good and unique in its own way. Would definitely try it with some ice cream next time!

    Until Yelp fixes this issue, this Anaheim location on 1440 S Anaheim Blvd is Don Churros food truck location with very different hours compared to their brick and mortar location in Santa Ana. Check their website for details: https://www.donchurrosgomez.com/ It has been a long time since I've been to Don Churros. Even though they recently opened their brick and mortar, I still come back to their food truck because I do not like the hassle of downtown Santa Ana. I love that their churros continue to be light and crispy. There is just no place that does it so well. I feel that the churro pieces have gotten shorter, so it's a better bang for your buck if you buy the entire thread versus the individual pieces. The owner is often here as the cashier and he is just the most awesome person. I got here right at opening at 5:30pm on Saturday and there was no line. Perhaps the Santa Ana location has helped offset some of the long lines here.

    Full Thread/Rosca Entera, Lechera Dip, & Abuelita Chocolate. Churros Rocked!

    Alrighty, here I go with Don Churros verdict. Inviting entrance, sparkly clean, and the most welcoming guy at cash register. So far so good! Ordered churros with a side of lechera, cajeta, and hot chocolate. Churros - delicious! Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside...just as a gooood churro should be. Yum! Lechera - not your common lechera...tasted like melted sugar...not a fan. Cajeta - smooth and pretty darn good for dipping and for just about anything else. Hot Chocolate - glitch! Gentleman tried mixing that bad boy (big container containing HC) to get that "Abuelita Chocolate" flavor, but no luck! It tasted like hot milk, water, and a splash of chocolate. Bummer! Trendy, loud catchy music, delicious churros, and great service! Parking available along 4th street. Try it!

    Some of the best food trucks are in random parking lots. We were nearby when a friend recommended their churros. The truck is located on the left side of the Anaheim Marketplace parking lot, and at 9:30 PM on a Friday, it was easy to spot thanks to the long line. Despite the crowd, we were able to place our order within about 15 minutes, and the food came out quickly. There is an area with standing tables conveniently located next to the truck to eat. I ordered the traditional churro with cajeta (caramel) dip, and wow, it might be the best churro I have ever had! It was freshly made, perfectly crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and not overly chewy like many churros tend to be. The sugar coating was generous without leaving a heavy or lingering aftertaste. The cajeta dip can get a bit messy, but it was not overly sweet, and the flavor and texture paired really well with the churro. After finishing it, I wished I ordered another one. Delicious churros and worth the visit. I'll be back again for a sweet treat.

    Great service and friendly. Love watching them prepare the food. This new brick and mortar place is nice especially when it is cold outside. Got some churros with coffee ice cream and Nutella drizzle ($9.25). Delicious! It really hits the sweet tooth spot. The churros are so crispy and not greasy. Love the new location! Thanks, Don Churros!

    As much as I love the strange creations of churros at Disneyland and DCA, they can never beat the Don Churros ones. You can't go wrong with the Don Churro Style cut in half with ice cream and caramel drizzle. Even if the line is long, the music they play is always good and helps pass the time...

    Don churro with caramel and ice cream
    Melanie T.

    I've been wanting to try Don Churros ever since I heard about their food truck in Anaheim, but last time I visited OC it was randomly closed. So I was so excited they opened this storefront in downtown Santa Ana which has more extended hours! We came on a weekend around 2:30pm and there were a few people inside, but quickly more people arrived. Its absolutely worth the hype. I shared a don churro with my partner and we added caramel and ice cream inside. The Don Churro shape is different from the typical churro. Its flat and wide and they stuff it with a topping of your choice. Since we got the ice cream one, it really made for a great ice cream sandwich! One order was plenty for 2 people. We devoured it so quickly. I have thought about this churro everyday since we got it! Service was super friendly. When you order you get a buzzer that will alert you to when it's ready. They make it fresh and they were efficient. The space is clean and has seating and tables. There were plenty of spaces when we got there but it quickly got populated. Their restroom was clean though their sink was a bit confusing (maybe a hybrid between automatic sink and manual?) Overall highly recommend!! Its also located near lots of shops in a walkable area so a great spot to spend the afternoon or evening :)

When my daughter had a dance competition in the area, I knew I had to go!!! Its located on 4th Street in Santa Ana but I've heard they also have a food truck that goes out to Anaheim as well. The place on 4th street though has street parking, be prepared to possibly circle around a few minutes to find a spot. Also, make sure you have coins to feed the parking meter! My daughter and I came on a Saturday evening and must've got there at a good time as there was only a handful of us in line. After ordering, it did get much, much longer! As in, right out the door! Its not a huge place...several tables along the wall to the left while on the right is the area where the magic happens! This is where they make the churros and towards the back, right is where the ordering is done. We ordered the Churros with ice Cream, Don Churro style with vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of nutella and a full thread of regular churros. I will have to say that these have got to be the best damn churros I've ever had!! They make them on the spot and not until you've made your order. They're so light, airy and not even oily!!! They're just soooo sooo good! We brought our boxes of churros home for the rest of our family to enjoy. There was so much that we couldnt finish it right away so we air fried what we had left the next day and it was still pretty darn good. For what you get, prices are quite reasonable! Now i'm just trying to get back out there sometime for their deliciousness! If there's a line, its worth the wait!!! Two thumbs up for Don Churros Gomez!

The red chocolate on the outside was too thin and was breaking into to many pieces. You DEFINITELY don't get that crunch sound you hear on social media. Too thin. The cream inside was not the right temperature, making the milk cream taste almost gamy. I question the quality of the ingredients. My guess is loaded ingredients.

You know a chocolate chip cookie will be bad if it's white. Dubai version had such a meager amount of dry filling. Mango patisserie is pretty but not delicate at all. The thick white chocolate shell overpowers everything else and the elements are overly sweet and crude in texture. The creme brulee custard is wayyyy too sweet and thick. The dubai chocolate strawberry is good but way too heavy on the chocolate and not enough of the kadayif. The banana pudding is pretty good.

I had expected the business to be in a more high volume area, however a benefit of their corner spot was that the parking lot had plenty of spaces. There's no indoor seating, but outdoor tables were set up along the north and east perimeters of the building. I was by myself at this latest visit, and it was close to the end of the day so the inventory was quite depleted. There was no line at all which was not a surprise. The famous Strawberry Croissants and prepackaged items were on refrigerated display to the left when you walked in. As the service counter rounded a corner, there were more fresh baked goods on display before you reached a register. Across from the registers were shelves containing bags of fresh bread products. I bought a Strawberry Croissant, a Sticky Bun, a Ham and Cheese Croissant, and an Apple Croissant. The quality of the pastry dough was very good, and I could see why the Strawberry Croissant was a favorite with the customers. The croissants were light and flakey, and the powdered sugar added a delicate topping to the strawberry version. If I were to rate on just the Strawberry Croissant, then it would be five stars. My overall rating was downgraded because of the customer traffic flow. The lines can be optimized so that if you wanted to buy a six-pack of the Strawberry Croissants and/or anything prepackaged, then a separate queue should be arranged for those customers. The cafeteria trays were of limited use if you were not getting a large number of items. As you advanced in the queue, other products had to be requested from a worker behind the counter and then those were not placed on the tray. Ultimately, I think they can configure the operation to more efficiently handle the higher volume periods of the day.
