The rumors and the word is true...don't go after dark lol. The characters hanging out give it an unsavory look, however, they ain't behind the counter so is cool! The guy behind the counter was cool. He was very friendly, talkative and informative about the food and the characters outside which made me even more comfortable because he was obviously not bothered by them. After watching several reviews on Tik Tok, I decided to try them. The menu is quite extensive for a donut shop which of course made it hard for me to decide. The hubster and I huddled up and decided to get a variety. I got the Philly Cheesesteak, extra mayo and the egg roll. The hubster got the fries and breakfast sandwich. $27 and 20 mins later (food delivered to the car) we were on our way. Now...the guy behind the counter said the Philly did not come with onions and bell peppers because they didn't use them because they found out they wasted them. Well not necessarily the case because my sandwich clearly had onions on it. There was not enough cheese or mayo which the grease made up for because it was definitely slippery. Their bread was fresh and soft. The flavor of the meat was very good. The onions accented it well. Overall I give the sandwich a 7. The egg roll was interesting. It was square and packed full of stuff! It was soft which I am going to chalk up to the commute. So for the egg roll, I'll give it a 7 also. The fries....a solid 10! Great for the commute! Fresh, well seasoned and fresh. The breakfast sandwich clearly had its flaws, however the bread was very fresh. He gave it a 6. Overall I give it @ 7.5 and definitely going back to try some other things. read more

First off . Mom and pops place. Love that. Second where can you get a bomb philly cheesesteak and cigarettes and swisher sweets.... LOL Love this place super friendly. Ordered a philly cheese combo, egg roll and a donut(since they are a donut shop) This philly cheese is very good. Alot of meat, good pepper taste. I will probably not order an eggroll again very not traditional and was soggy. Definitely coming back. The neighborhood aint that bad.... Not scaring me away. read more

Wanna keep it short and simple, donuts fire. Service bomb. BUT you've gotta try their Philly cheesesteak. Gawd damnnnn was it amazing. They do not skimp out on the meat. Robert and Miss Chann are my favorite. Thank you. Next time you're in the Rialto area you've gotta stop by not just for the donuts and service but also for their food. Sorry I can't find my pic of the cheesesteak. TIL next time my fellow yelpers read more

Husband and I tried 1 philly cheese steak and 1 double cheese burger with an order of fries and onion rings. Steak was running off the roll so much meat. We shared everything. I loved the burger and cheesesteak. Onion frings and fries were also good. Husband is waiting to go back this week. The Lady that served us was so sweet..Try it, Will order different dish next time. Husband said donuts were also as good as their sandwiches read more

Heard about this place and their amazing Philly cheesesteak. Read the reviews and had to give it a try. The cheesesteak did not disappoint. Plenty of meat and just enough onion. Would have liked more cheese though. Still 5 stars for me. Good variety of food and prices are good too. Under $11 for the sandwich. Would be coming back to try other items soon. read more

This Philly cheesesteak is probably THE BEST sandwich I've ever had. Tbh tho I don't eat cheesesteak that often but this blows all other sandwiches out of the water and now I NEED to be having this regularly. Seriously, if you don't believe me just try it once and you'll understand. It's a friendly family owned donut shop so you know they put a lot of love into making this. And oh man after eating this sandwich, I think I'm addicted. The sandwich is stuffed with so much meat, so juicy, and seasoned amazingly. It's the perfect amount of flavor and savoriness that with each bite you'll be doing the happy dance. Honestly, if I had to provide some criticism, I wish there was more cheese to satisfy my gluttony. read more

I tried the Philly cheesesteak. There wasn't any cheese but the sandwich was ok. There's a lot of meat if you're into that extra protein. I wish there was an option to add bell peppers. It's made fresh to order which is a plus. I won't necessarily be back for the Philly but may try a breakfast sandwich. read more

I had the pastrami and I got my coworkers a steak and cheese both extra delicious well worth the money highly recommend

Just passing through town and needed food. Saw the reviews and headed over for dinner. Loved the Philly cheesesteak. I would definitely come here again. read more

The owner was extremely nice and guest already there were very pleasant and welcoming. Environment felt more like coming to my uncles house than a donut shop. After a couple of good laughs I gave the owner a list for 12 donuts as selected by my wife. He took the list and very happily boxed them up. In tied me to come back and have some regular food later, which I will certainly be trying soon. The donuts are delicious, very soft and wonderful presentation! I'll attack a picture. I really can't say anything negative about my experience. The dozen donuts were 18.00 plus tax, not horrible considering the price of food now a days. My wife loves her sprinkled donuts and my kid loves the maple bar. All in all a great experience that deserves 5 stars. Thank you for the wonderful morning. read more

The area is a bit sketchy. Lots of homeless walking around panhandling. But the Philly Sandwich was AMAZING! It made it worth the wait.

Philly cheesesteak and excellent customer service. The best of both worlds. Bought this today for lunch. This is definitely a hidden gem . It may look simple, and people are probably saying"it's missing things, or that's not a Philly " but LET me tell you, it's full of FLAVOR! Where have you been hiding all this time?! It's definitely a hole in a wall type of place but man does she keep it clean! She has more items in the menu, that I will try in the future. I ate only half because I got full. However, ate the rest for dinner cold, it was as amazing as it was when it was hot. read more

Who would have thought that such a tasty Philly cheesesteak would be created in the kitchen of a donut shop? Their apple fritter is also one of the best I've ever had. The owner is very kind and friendly, he greeted all his customers by name. read more

You can't go wrong with any item in the menu. They will even custom make a croissant for you. I had a ham & cheese croissant with cream cheese and jalapeños and it was so good!!!! Highly recommend this place all day everyday:) read more

Howard's Donuts - Almost forgot to snap the photo. Yum. Great service. They were so nice and friendly. - Donuts Near Me - San Bernardino, California

Awesome service and awesome donuts! Definitely coming back. This place really is a hidden treasure

Hands down the best cheesesteak I've ever had. You really can't go wrong with anything here though. The burgers, the pastrami, the onion rings, and obviously the donuts. The lady who runs the shop is super nice. It's not in the best area, but the food is well worth the brief change of scenery. read more

Have been going there for years. Good food, fresh donuts, croissants are very hot and fresh. Very nice owners. Friendly.

For staters, the lady who works there is super nice. We called to see what the hours were and she let us know they close at 5 pm. All the reviews mentioned how great the philly cheesesteak is so my husband had to try it. He LOVED it and even I liked it and I never like philly's, personally. I ordered a cheeseburger and it was a great value, $3 and some change. It came with lettuce, onion, pickles, tomato, mayo and ketchup. Classic. The onion rings did not disappoint, either. I can't wait to try more of their offerings. I just had a bite of my donut and it's perfect, soft in the middle, a little crunch on the outside, and a sweet chocolate icing on top. Lovely. read more

One of the very few nice places left in San Bernardino that I am always proud to support and visit. The reviews are absolutely spot on. The family is always nice to me, always! All the food I've ever tried here is delicious including their fine selection of donuts. Our favorite thing to order is the bacon cheese and egg croissant. So damn good! Call ahead of time if you'd like to have them start on your order. Thanks to the family for their hard work and dedication. read more

I came here for the Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich and was not disappointed! The philly is the BOMB! The meat is so fresh and the bread is sooooo soft! The lady behind the counter was so friendly and nice and so was the guy, I didn't get a name but I'm bad at remembering names. Best $ If you're passing through Colton this is a MUST TRY!! I just tried the Steak, Egg and Cheese sandwich on a croissant and I don't think I'll ever eat at a fast food restaurant again. The quality and freshness is on point and I couldn't have made a better sandwich. I love this place!!! read more

Ordered the dozen and the donuts were delicious! I must say that their jelly filled definitely stood out. You wouldn't be able to tell based on its location, but it's not your ordinary donut shop. Not surprised at all when i came back to look it up and saw all the great reviews. Now i have to go back and try this Philly cheesesteak that everyone is talking about! read more

Hands down! Best Philly Cheese Steaks in the world, moat tender steak , flavors so robust tou must try! :)

THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! Some of the best customer service I have ever had. The owner is so dope and the food they cook here is GAS

This place is definitely a hole-in-the-wall gem. They have cheap food and it's actually GOOD. Sure it looks janky as hell and you'll see cops arresting people right in front of the shop or even better..hookers walking around Howards and the liquor store next to it. Yea, that's right.. Hookers. but this place definitely knows how to serve up some food. I always get the philly cheesesteak and they do not hold back on the meat. Donuts are always fresh and service is friendly as hell. Regulars and newbies of the store always call the owner "MA" because she definitely always takes care of ya. All the best food joints are always hole-in-the-wall/sketchy/janky looking stores so don't be afraid to come here and check out the food. read more

The food is so amazing it was delicious. They had great service and were super friendly to me. I would totally recommend going again.

We saw they had great reviews so we decided to take a chance. We weren't disappointed. The donuts are yummy and the service was fast!

I just tried the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and HOLY SHIT that sandwich was delicious. Everyone is talking about the chili cheese fries and how great they are so I will be trying those next time. I'm definitely recommending this place to family and friends. read more
