Look closely The young lady just had bridge work done and was lucky that no damage was done
Alan C.

I went in got a gigantic maple doughnut. I was bringing it to a customer that I was trying to impress or just to get some more business with presentation was great. Two hours after I dropped it off I called and asked how their donut was and they proceeded to tell me that there was a a soda can tab in the dough of the doughnut. I went in to complain and I wanted to talk to the manager but she was out I sent a text message to get a call back. I got nothing. Needless to say the only donuts I can bring to this customer now are Peterson's donuts from Riverton, which are much better and cost a whole lot less.

Where's the jelly?!

Visited for the first time to try out a few items. They didn't have the maple bacon bar pictured on Yelp. The raspberry filled donut was basically a stale glazed donut with NO filling. Not being hyperbolic, the filling was totally missed. The blueberry cheese pastry was also not fresh. I ordered the maple cronut in lieu of the maple bar and that tasted freshly made. I don't normally order three items once I find a favorite (typically the raspberry filled), but I'm glad I did. Calories were saved today. Dear Donut Star, the kids behind the counter were clean cut and kind, however, better quality control needs to be put in place. They also didn't have bills for change before noon on a Saturday and the cashier was profusely apologetic. Overall, it was an odd experience for a first timer.

Whatta vibe! So excited to try these!

Stopped by on a whim, and whatta find! Cronuts, gluten friendly mochi donuts, and fresh baked sourdough - this place has it all. The staff were sweet, the shop was cozy, and the pastries were great! Cool to find gluten friendly donuts, technically not gf since they use the same fryer for everything, but still a rare find!

Homer Texas Ring Donut

Their Texas Homer ring has my heart forever Donuts and breakfast sandwiches are always wonderful, staff is always awesome, and the shop is always decorated so nice. Plus, they seem to be open way more than other competing donut shops!

The donuts here are soft, moist, freshly made, and not overly sweet. There's a great variety, including fun filled options like Oreo and raspberry. They also offer bagels, danishes, breakfast sandwiches, and coffee. The space is cozy, and the staff is friendly, perfect for catching up with friends. Easily one of the best donut sports in Salt Lake City. I'll definitely be back to try the jalapeno cheese bagel and more.

We actually went to the store! Small store front. We went around 1pm and they still had plenty of donuts. Gentleman that helped us was friendly and explained how they will make more donuts if they see they maybe running out. Which is cool, they only fry in the morning so they aren't fresh throughout the day. The stay open til 5 but if they sell out sooner they close so keep that in mind. The seating area was little dirty but maybe the had a huge rush earlier, Also I think you get small discount paying in cash. They have tons of merch which is funny for a donut shop but cool too. My donut was good! I got a glazed old fashion and husband got cheese Danish. Both were good! We like their breakfast sandwiches. We usually order on DoorDash but in store they have more variety just fyi.

Best old fashioned donut around! Danielle was so nice and knowledgeable

Best old-fashioned bar in town! Danielle was very nice and the store is so cute on the inside! Very affordable and taste amazing!

Best Ever Glazed Donuts!

First time visiting Donut Star Cafe in West Jordan, Utah and these donuts are amazing! Truly some of the best donuts to cross my lips! If Heaven has a donut shop it would definitely be the Donut Star Cafe

Pretty expensive for what you get. The donuts are good. But paying $23.00 for a dozen seems a bit much. Id recommend going somewhere else.

Cronut was amazing and the maple bar had a different kind of taste that I liked. Next time trying the massive Homer Simpson donut.

Are there any vegan options?

Gluten free options?

Yes they have old fashioned donuts that are gluten free. The person behind me purchased them for exactly that reason. I would make sure that you get the gluten free ones since mistakes can be very serious with gluten intolerances but they do have an…

They have interesting flavor combinations but some of them are a little too sweet. Yes these are…read moredonuts but there is such a thing as too much sugar. I'm not saying I didn't like these donuts because they were good!! But I've definitely had better donuts in the Salt Lake area. The interior was not inviting and makes you want to grab your stuff and head right out. Which I guess is pretty normal because who's really hanging around a donut shop? This was my first visit and the staff were pretty friendly. They were happy to talk me through options and offer suggestions on what donuts to pick. I always like to try a place a second time before write it off but it'll probably be a while before I'm back

I'm so sorry for the photo with 1/4 of the apple fritter already eaten. I thought this place was…read moregoing to be mediocre because of the stars, but the apple fritter ranks as one of the best I've eaten. So, of course, I needed to review it. We recently moved to SLC from the Midwest and I've struggled to find baked goods that compare. I think it's due to the elevation out here making baked goods textures a little denser. This was not the case with this apple fritter. It was the perfect ratio of crispy edges and soft chewy insides. The glaze was sweet but not cloying. The fritter was warm which made it extra tasty. I didn't try any other donuts but the fritter was definitely worth 4.5 stars. The location was very clean and organized. The service was fantastic. Great experience!
