    I'm personally not a huge fan of cake style donuts so I opted for the soft and fluffy ones and they were all delicious. My favorite was the jelly filled and glaze. I wish they had more of a larger selection but still so delicious. I am a huge fan you can tell they are fresh. I recommend getting there in the morning because they are so fluffy. I would consider this the top food place on the GOTL strip. Hands down some great donuts with excellent friendly staff. The hours listed online are not very accurate so I would call they said online they were closed but they were really open! Definitely try there donuts!

    Very happy to have tried this donut shop. Line moved pretty quickly. Small space once inside. It's an order, pay, grab, and keep moving. Donuts were delicious. Very fresh donuts. Frosting was very good. Will come back the next we visit

    I was treated to donuts while we were in the area. I was told that this place has been open since the 50s, if not earlier, and that when the original owner retired, he sold the recipe to the new owner. Anyway, the donuts were Delicious! Im a fan of Krispy Kreme, but unfortunately we don't have one in our area. We have another chain, which the locals seem to like, and even though I can't mention their name, it's similar to the famous book by Dr Seuss named Horton hears a who. The yeast donuts melt in your mouth! So good, but a little pricey at $15 for a dozen, but what isn't pricey these days? Fortunately I don't live in the area, or I'd prolly end up spending all my cash buying this, while living under a bridge nearby. Seriously, try them!

    Husband can't resist the donuts, so we walked in after lunch, he got two!! Hahaha, immediately eat it after he walked out of the shop! He said it's fresh and great!

    One customer at a time but line was quickly moving. Each donut is a buck. About five varieties all of which were so very soft and moist at 945am on a Saturday. The cake donuts had a lightly crispy outside with wonderful not too dense cake inside. Coffee for two bucks. Good deal and good donuts.

    , I'd have to say first time visit to Madsen Donuts they were delicious well worth hour drive, service was friendly and quick. In small resort town shop.

    The one that was finished was a jelly stick my hubby ate - we just can't eat the rest.

    I heard the hype on New Day Cleveland and read the reviews here, so when I was in Geneva-on-the-Lake this weekend for brunch I had to stop in and grab a half dozen donuts from Madsen. I admit I'm so disappointed. Not sure if the folks who reviewed before have never had a flavorful donut or if the glow of vacation or nostalgia is clouding their judgement, but not a single donut in my box had any flavor. The only hint of anything came from the peanuts and jimmies and jelly from 3 of our selections. The dough for the yeasty and cake style both seem to be missing salt or vanilla. The cream sticks (which I was most excited about) were chewy and dense with a shortening based cream filling that was not completely mixed, resulting in a unpleasant texture that coated my mouth in an oil-slick like film (which had a hint of vanilla aftertaste). I wanted to love these, but could not even eat them - that says a lot coming from a chubby donut-loving lady.

    See all

    I was reading reviews and was concerned- this place is fantastic! I saw some negative reviews and I…read morehad to add my super positive one! I LOVE HKKB! My go to is Singapore Mai Fun. I get it ALL the time because it is not only consistently delicious, and perfect (did I mention I'm a PICKY pain in the arse?) I had a couple of Chinese food places on the West side which were good, and also two Thai places- but Hong Kong King blows all of them away. They're reasonable! And the owner who always greets me is adorable. I also am thrilled because I can also get my Bubble Tea fix in!!! Yay for Taro Bubble Tea! Rora had a Green Tea from here and her Tofu with Brown sauce- she's also picky. It passed the Rora test too. It is for the time being a take out only, and that's just fine for me. I do see renovations getting closer, so maybe in the future it'll be a Buffet again. I love their food though- YUM! When I first moved out here to the Geneva area, I told friends that I needed to have a good Chinese place! Since I had four that I frequented back on the west side -that was a sore spot with me moving to the east. When Hong Kong King buffet reopened post covid, I was practically beating down their door lol! I will also say on the consistency of the food here everything I've ordered is always cooked perfectly and delicious! Give this wonderful little treasure a try and don't forget to grab yourself a bubble tea too!

    Best Chinese food around. Owners are so nice. No longer a buffet, but great take out for home.read more
