    I love a mom and pop restaurant, so Donut Star is a gem for me! Their donuts have a softness I can't resist. My go to donut spot!

    A small, local hole-in-the-wall donut joint. This place has been here (same owners as well) for over 20 years; so it must be doing something right. Selection is limited; seating inside is limited; & there is no bathroom. Also; cash only! Always clean however; & they make the best ham & cheese croissant this side of the Mississippi. Also; coffee is always fresh; albeit sometimes they don't have sugar free sweetener. Service is quick; occasionally friendly. 24 hour window usually open 365! Can't beat that. I appreciate small businesses such as this one; and always try & frequent as much as possible.

    They have a nice selection of donuts when I stopped by on a Sunday morning. I picked out an orange and a chocolate cake donut and both were very good and flavorful. I can tell from the first bite that they had to be made just a few hours before I bought them. They also sell lottery tickets and I bought some too.

    Hands down the best donuts I've had in LA. Fast and friendly service, and cheap prices! My favorite was the traditional style glazed donut

    Food: good but too expensive 4/5 Service: fast and friendly…read more5/5 Ambiance: no indoor seating 3/5 :(( 4.5/5

    So, this is the new issue with Sidecar in Manhattan Beach this morning…read more... When you can't even get a dozen doughnuts from a doughnut shop to take to work, BEFORE work...there's some major operational failures that need to be remedied. I work at the airport and we're unable to get app based food deliveries. They can't even come into the airport. So, I usually order Sidecar on my way to work and have the driver meet me at the LAX Metro Transit Center, before hopping on the shuttle to my terminal. I placed an order for a DOZEN through Uber Eats at 6:35 a.m. And this is the message I get from Maya. I call the store and ask them to cancel it. 5 minutes later it's still not canceled, so I call back and BEG them "PLEASE CANCEL THE ORDER?!" and the young lady with such a bad attitude replies "We will cancel the order, don't worry about that." and I say "Can you cancel it while I'm on the phone?! I want to know it's been canceled!" Her smart ass reply was that "You're gonna have to wait, becauee there's no manager here, but you'll receive a notification when it's canceled" so I ask "You can't cancel an order without a manager?" and the girl says "No." then I ask "Can I have your name, please?" and with an audible grin on her face, she says "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...."and I said" OK! That's fine!" and hung up. Minutes later, the order was canceled. Sounds like Sidecar has some real superstars working at their Manhattan Beach store. Also, this was a delivery order and the fact that she even thought it was for pickup and casually says to wait an hour and a half before pickup at 7 in the morning incompetence and a total lack of consideration at its finest. It hurts, because I really do like Sidecar and have for about 3 years. I've introduced many to their doughnuts, but spending $60 on a dozen, just to get treated like you're a joke is abhorrent.
