Says it's open but it closed
Mayra G.

Dude, the sign said it's open and I got extremely excited especially by the potent smell of the place that I ran over to order a few dozen but to my disappointment, it was closed. WtF! Sad times .

Blue donuts? Yes please!

Some friends brought donuts over a while back. And one of the donuts was blue. My kid has been asking for a blue donut ever since. So on Saturday morning i schlepped to this spot with my kid only to walk in and discover (gasp) no blue donuts. The kind woman there didn't bat an eye and said she'd make me some. She did and because the icing was still wet for the transport home she gave my kid another donut (white with sprinkles). i can't rave enough for the service. Three cheers for famous donuts.

What's so Famous about these Donuts?....... I don't know either! just another Asian owned Donut shop with an average selection of the basic dounts.... that's all you get!. I will say I did hit this place up mid-day and donut was fresh, selection was limited so I grabbed an Apple Fritter....

5 stars for service! Ordered a coffee and a jelly donut; when I got home I looked in the bag and found two bonus donut holes! Thanks!

Always drive by here and was curious so I stopped by and glad I did! Wow what great service and the…read morelady was so friendly! She recommended a couple of donuts and they were all good! The store is nice and clean with high quality donuts and service! Highly recommended and I will be back!

I've been coming here for about four years because it's close to home, and I've brought my son here…read moremany times as well as purchased dozens of donuts for birthdays and my team members at work. Unfortunately, after my last two experiences, I will not be returning. On my previous visit, we ordered bagels with cream cheese and received barely any cream cheese. When I politely asked for more and offered to pay for it, the interaction was uncomfortable, but I decided to give the shop another chance. Today, my son specifically asked to come back for a donut and bagel. We were the only customers eating inside. Shortly after receiving our food, an employee began mopping the very small dining area with a strong Pine Sol solution. The door were open, there was no air conditioning, and the chemical smell became so overwhelming that I told him I was having difficulty breathing and asked about it. Rather than simply waiting until we finished eating, he argued that other customers like the smell and that no one else complains. Eventually he said he would stop while I was there, but by that point the entire interaction had become unnecessarily uncomfortable. Other employees were also speaking loudly from the back, and the overall atmosphere made my son and me feel extremely unwelcome. I don't expect perfection, and I'm usually very understanding about service issues. But customers should be able to sit down and finish their food without strong cleaning chemicals being mopped around their table, and a reasonable concern should be met with courtesy rather than an argument. After supporting this neighborhood business for four years, including larger purchases for my workplace, it's disappointing to say I won't be returning or recommending it. There are simply too many other places where customers are made to feel welcome. Please note: this is a VERY polite version of what happened. This was an awful experience. I will never recommend this business and definitely will not return.
