Tried the passion fruit soft serve today, and it was great! Perfect combination of tart and sweet!
I went to the location at La Cosecha -- I loved the Arequipe (Dulce de leche) flavor, but found the rest to be just fine. The fruity flavors I was less crazy about. I loved the option to get four mini donuts to try all flavors!
Donisima is back in La Cosecha! This time in the former Cafe Unido space. I firmly believe these are the best donuts in DC!
Had wanted to try this donut shop for a while and when I saw the Halloween specials I knew it was time! The shop hours are pretty limited and they are a small batch operation, so I'd recommend preordering. They sell the donuts out of Junge's stall in The Square food hall. Only negative was that the donuts weren't ready at my pickup time, so I had to wait an extra 15-20 mins. But lemme tell you, the donuts were incredible!! The dough was fluffy and unctuous, and each was filled with delicious creamy fillings. Even the mini ones had plenty of filling, toppings and glazes. Also extra points for edible garnishes that actually taste good. Both cookies on top of the Halloween specials were amazing. Definitely worth checking out the mini sampler of their 4 classic flavors for $10. The speciality big ones were $5 each.
A great mid afternoon snack to help push through the rest of the day. Each mini donut ever so delicately decorated and the best part...the fillings and toppings were not overly sweet.
Warm robust coffee and a fancy donut. Mid morning, the food hall is quiet and you can get some work done.
Found these guys walking around Western Food Hall. I was worried their donuts were not going to be fresh because they don't even have their own stall. They were more of a small podium with a cart of donuts next to it. Boy was I wrong! My donut tasted incredible. Soft, but also firm and doughy. A good balanced bite. The flavor was not-too-sweet. As an Asian girl, saying something is "not-too-sweet" is the ULTIMATE compliment. This place needs their own brick & mortar because they are very talented.
I'm always on the hunt for a well crafted donut--and these are easily the best I've had in DC. Rich flavors, not over the top, well balanced and a little bit of everything for any palette. While the Donisima menu is part of the Junges storefront, I believe it is its own entity. I believe because the menu was integrated into the Junges storefront the hours are more consistent. 10/10!
*starts to sing* Heaven, donut Heaven!!!!! Just the words which comes to mind after the sweet experience I had earlier today at their location at Western Market. Let's start off by saying that the customer service was actually the reason why I walked over to the cart. The woman behind the counter greeted me from afar and that immediately caused me to think "hmmm I've never seen them before" prompting me to walk over and learn more. After walking over, I engaged in a wonderful conversation about the store location, hours of operation at the market, and was educated on how to pair the donuts with a particular coffee beverage. Excellent and knowledgeable service! Well, I knew that I could only indulge in 1, given that it was my cheat day. Wow! Honey, the Arequipe was DIVINE! The dough was so soft, buttery, and moist *chefs kiss* Topped with cheese crumble and dulce con Leche, the star of this show was the sweet, oozing, caramel center. These flavors combined was everything that I needed to melt away with each bite. I of course, couldn't consume the entire donut and it was large enough to share with someone else. What a beautiful way to enjoy some nice weather than with the perfect sweet treat. I am definitely going to visit them again and from the price list, you can see that it is very cost effective. The size of the donuts are worth the price!!!!!! Sooooo, if you're in the area and need a great place with good customer service and excellent donuts...check them out! Support businesses that leave a good mark in the tummies of their customers.
I love any kind of food hall because I have the chance to try so many different foods. Today on the menu was the Arequipe, a donut topped with cheese. This donut was perfectly sweet without being too overpowering. Now at first I was like "5 dollars for a donut??". But tbh you pay for what you get and what I got was fantastic. Service was good and easy. It was a cart inside a market that has other little restaurants if you want something savory to compliment the sweet. This was a great donut. Filling, sweet and had a great combination of flavors. Im excited to come back to try some of their others!
As the first and only certified, dignified, and sometimes mortified donut sommelier, connoisseur, aficionado I add this one to the list. It is inside of the La Consecha market, which is very cool, in the union market area. I went on a Friday afternoon, and I was intrigued to find that parking on the main street was free while parking on the side streets was not. Parking was relatively easy to find. Donisima is a standalone cart within the market. This means they are being made somewhere else and brought over to the cart. They were on a rack which was not a warming rack so you're not getting warm fresh out of the oven/oil donuts. I first requested a glazed vanilla, but was informed that they were sold out so I chose the chocolate and the coquito. He package them into the box I paid, and as I was walking away, I saw the glazed donut holes. I was surprised that when he told me that the full donut was sold out, but he didn't tell me. They had donut holes as an alternative. So I purchased those as well. The donut holes were about a 3.5 to 4. The glaze had a nice level of sweetness and the donut had a good texture. However, the larger donuts were a unique texture. I don't think that they are yeast or cake donuts. It had more of a bread consistency . I've never experienced a doughnut with that kind of texture before. The flavor of both were good, the Creme was tasty, but the consistency was just throwing off the whole experience. Unfortunately, these will go into the category of they were awful, but I'm not running back to get more.

So excited for this new location!! I came to get the special heritage donut collab with chef Isabel coss. The honeycomb semifreddo was delicious!! I also got an Arequipe cold brew and it tasted like my childhood (like the milk in a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch). Sooooo good!! The server was fast but intentional and chatted with me while she was making everything. The donut was so yummy!! read more
We were in our way out from grabbing breakfast from another spot and the food display caught my eye. Everything looked delicious so I had to put my curiosity to the test. I snagged the flor de canela and a bev (the one with ginger). We were very pleased with our choice! The donut was airy, perfect amount of sweet. And the drink was refreshing, I am a big fan of drinks with ginger! We'd absolutely return. read more

Inside La Cosecha, a market with Latin American makers, is a small artisanal doughnut stand open every day except Mondays. When I went on a Wednesday afternoon, they were selling four kinds. For just over $4, I ordered the vanilla glazed. With lots of icing, my fingers got sticky, but the doughnut itself was tasty and had good texture. read more

I wish Yelp had half stars because this would be a solid 3.5. The actual problem was that I ordered 5 donuts but only got 4. I should have checked before I left, but I didn't and then got home to find 1 missing. :( Maybe the new location in La Cosecha was part of the confusion but when you spend $5 on a donut, you do miss it when it's not there. Otherwise, these donuts were really good on flavor and texture (excellent texture!) but way too overfilled. Check out the picture of the chocolate one - the filling was super thick and very tasty, but it got everywhere and squished out when you took a bite. It was a lot, and I think that's why I got a little over-sugared just after eating 1. But truly the flavors we had were great. I think the rum + orange was my favorite followed by the guava. read more

These donuts, just wow. My favorite was the Arequipa. All of the donuts are so unique and decadent, you can't go wrong with any of the choices! These are definitely some elevated donuts. Finding the place: Park on New York Ave or Fenwick; call 786-342-4543 and ask to pick up your delivery; walk on Fenwick away from New York Ave by the distillery a few hundred feet until you see a black door with a green sign for Union Kitchen; wait outside until your donuts are brought out. We had a hard time finding instructions and directions for how to pick up our delivery so hopefully this clarifies things for future donut lovers! read more

The donuts are very soft and not overly sweet , the arequipe and guava and cheese were my favorite donuts. I am not much of a filled donut , so next time I would probably do the donut bites read more
Checked out Donisima Donuts at their fabulous Yelp event today ... and boy they did not disappoint! The flavors were so fresh and pure without being overwhelmingly strong or sweet. Absolutely adored the Dulce de Leche donut (the cream inside was 10/10), and you can't go wrong with the classic vanilla bean (so light). These Donisima donuts were the perfect density in my opinion ... not as heavy as a cake donut but not as airy as a traditional donut - just perfect. Absolutely recommend for your next week treat in DC :) read more

This place is inside La Cosecha and I tried the guava curd donut, which was delicious! The presentation was good and the coconut flakes on top was a great addition. read more

Was led to these delicious treats by two articles that spoke of a father-son duo opening a pop-up shop for donuts with a Colombian twist. Our unofficial, unscientific, ranking: (1) arequipe; (2) amor al chocolate; (3) rum fashion; (4) guava and cheese; and (5) vanilla (my vanilla-freak other half would bump this up 2 levels). Clear that these were made with a lot of care and thought and invention. The dough was soft and airy, the fillings were delicate and flavorful, the toppings were appreciated but sometimes lost in the mix. For instance, the queso fresco streusel sounded interesting, but we the taste was so slight. The rum fashion combo of flavors sounds splendid, but I wish that there was more orange confit/flavor. The guava in the guava and cheese donut was also very subtle. But, overall, the donuts were fun and delicious. If in the area, would probably given them a try. We ate them with some stout beers from the Other Half Brewery down the street We waited a bit for them -- which is good and bad -- the wait guaranteed they were fresh, but waiting outside on the sidewalk was a bit awkward. Donisima Donuts operates out of the Union Kitchen. You call ahead, they prepare your donuts, and you wait outside of the black door with a green sign. read more
