The mozzarella Hot Cheeto K-dog was so good, the strawberry latte came in the cutest can-top cup, and the mochi doughnut had a cool texture! I also took a cake decorating class that was fun, well organized, and full of adorable decorating options. Loved the seasonal touches, too! Overall, such a fun, cute, and delicious experience!
The mochi donuts here are a 100% must try. They have warm lights on them so they stay nice and warm and taste super delicious when you get them. The service was great, the people are super helpful with deciding what to get. The place is overall very nice and cozy inside. Definitely a place to go eat some delicious donuts!
Was happy to hear that Mochinut came to Austin, and I finally got to check it out. It looked like they had just finished an event when we arrived, so the selection was a little limited, but they still had a few tasty options available. I'm not sure whether they rotate flavors or offer more choices on other days, but the menu also includes corn dogs and drinks, which is a nice bonus. The interior is cute, with a few tables and chairs that make it a comfortable spot to stop in. Service was friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even better. The donuts are especially fun to eat because they can easily be separated into individual pieces, kind of like donut holes, so they're great for sharing or enjoying on your own. My go to for my donut craving.
I stopped by for an event since I've always wanted to try this store. The place is clean, organized and cute. I just don't like the fact that the drinks cannot be modified for the sugar level "because they are pre-made" as per the staff, so that for me makes it hard to want to come back. Donuts are delicious and the decoration/glazing, is stunning.
I love mochi donuts because they always feel much lighter than regular donuts, and these did not disappoint. They're not overly sweet, which I really appreciate, and the chewy texture makes them so satisfying to eat. I also love bringing them to parties since they're easy to share and everyone tends to enjoy them. The space itself is super cute and inviting. I haven't tried their drinks yet, but I definitely want to next time. Overall, a great spot for a fun, lighter dessert treat!
Stopped in for an event at the store and decided to pick up a donut to try. I got the matcha flavor. The donut was soft and bouncy, the perfect texture for a mochi donut. However, I got absolutely zero matcha flavor from the glaze. I would recommend trying a different flavor.
I saw this Mochinut location opened up, so I went to check it out. I thought it was brand new, but I can see reviews going back a few months, so now I am confused why it looked like they had just moved into the shop. There were boxes just sitting out on the floor, and the decorations were incomplete. They had run out of tapioca, but it was 8pm, and they're a new shop (or so I thought at the time), so I get it. The AC was so cold inside that we were too cold to sit down and just paced around. The boba types they had looked really good on their poster. I got the ube boba because I normally love ube boba, and most boba shops around here don't have it. I asked the employee if they make it on site, and she said yes, but then I asked if it was premade, and she also said yes. I was really confused. She gave me a cute plastic can of boba, so I'm pretty sure I just paid $6 for an ube drink without tapioca. It was way too sweet for me, and I normally really like sweet drinks. She said they can't change the sweetness as it is premade. I feel like they could have a less sweet premade drink and subsequently add sweetener to it as needed. I got a massive stomachache. My friend got the half mozzarella half potato Korean corn dog. He said he liked it, but he didn't seem very enthused by it. They also have one of those ripoff cup ramen bars that charge a bunch of money for the ramen cups you can buy for less than $1 at the store.
THE BIG: Located in the Linc in central Austin right off of I35. Big space with a sweet smell of mochi donuts. Plenty of parking in the parking lot, however it does get full fast. THE BLACK AND WHITE: The original one is on Parmer lane inside the Hana grocery store. I typically grab the regular hitters like the Ube, yuzu and yogurt. however they have some really interesting flavors like the pistachio, fruity pebbles, and banana milk. Some other good ones are the mango and black sesame. The donuts are shaped so you know it's a mochidonut. Each donut can be ripped into smaller donut holes and has a beautiful bounce to their chew. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall, for a 3-piece box of donuts the damage was around $9. Each donut is priced differently though, so your mileage may vary. Very good and I'm glad there's a solid mochi donut spot near me.
For those that don't know what Mochinut is it is a cafe that serves desserts in the form of mochi donuts, snacks such as Korean hot dogs and ramen, and boba drinks. We went on a Friday night and had a mochinut! A mochinut is a donut made of mochi (usually combo of rice/water/sugar/cornstarch) - so the donut is crispy on the outside but chewy on the outside. It is not as sweet as a Krispy Kreme donut and not overly yeast/dense like a Round Rock donut. The flavors we tried were the chocolate pistachio, raspberry powdered sugar, and Ube. I enjoyed the donuts as they weren't overly sweet and heavy, but still filling and sweet enough to satisfy sweet tooth. They also had Korean hot dogs, which are basically corn dogs stuffed/filled with different things (hot dogs, potatoes, or mozzarella). They also sell Korean instant ramen where you can add your own toppings. The shop itself is so cute bright purple! And had seating enough for 14 people and couple of tables outside. There was only one person taking orders and making things when we went, but she was fast and efficient. Parking is free and plentiful.
Mochinut is a great addition to The Linc. Korean style donuts, really delicious. I got the mochi donut and a cream donut. Both unique and very tasty. The place inside is clean and welcoming. I enjoyed my experience here!
We went here because they were giving away free donuts if you had your 'I voted' sticker. Honestly, I had never heard about this place so I'm glad they were part of the promotion or I would have never known about it. I think it may be new. It was super cute inside. The ambiance was very pink and girly and they have an artsy mural on the wall that you can take a picture next to. I think this is local because I'm pretty sure the person that checked us out was the owner. he was really nice and friendly. The donuts of course were very tasty. They were fluffy and not too sweet which I really liked. Some donut places can be overpowering but this one had it just right. I will definitely come here again. It's a cute little dessert spot!
Ask the cashier what's hot and fresh, cuz those tend to be the best! We got their simple glaze mochi donut and it was just the right sweetness (not too much) and great texture!
The opportunity to come to Mochinut finally came in the form of a promotion where you can get a free donut for showing your "I voted" sticker. The donuts were so good! Not too sweet and their respective flavors really shined through. The shape of the donuts make it so easy to break apart if you're not feeling like eating the whole thing. And they keep so well in the fridge. I really want to try some of their filled donuts next time!

So a friend brought us these sleeping babies in a box as a thank you and they were the best surprise ever! I'm not a fan of donuts but I've never had these before! They looked sweet to me at first but they weren't at all. They were the absolute perfect ratio of sweetness and dough. Then the texture was confusing because it seemed chewy but not chewy. Then for me there was a funnel cake after taste which I quite enjoyed - but without the greasy taste. They somehow seemed light and simple yet flavorful. A mystery for sure! read more

First time going to Mochinut and it did not disappoint! We tried the bacon milk tea, churro, and funnel cake mochinuts. All three had really good strong flavors and texture. The milk tea flavor was good, but I personally felt the bacon bits took away from it. We also ordered the ube milk tea and matcha strawberry drink. Both were good, and as a matcha lover I appreciated the strong matcha flavor. Service was good, and the store itself was spacious with ample tables to sit at. My only complaints were that the tables and floor were kind of dirty. We had come in during a rainstorm and there were no rugs to dry our shoes on so the tiles were muddy and slippery. read more
It was my first time getting some mochi donuts. The ladies were super helpful explaining them to me and handling my order. The spot is clean and spacious. Makes for a cute date night desert spot, or a weekend hang out. Parking is plentiful and free. I walked out with 3 mochinuts: milk tea (for the boba lover in me), mango lychee (big lychee fan), and strawberry funnel cake (for my family). All are very sweet so eating 3 in one sitting is not ideal. This could be an acquired taste - half my family didn't like it. But if you're a mochi fan like me, you'll appreciate it. I say come on by and give these a taste! read more

So on a quest to find the new Somi Somi we saw Mochinut and decided to check it out. Now, I know that it was a long shot to find a gluten free mochi donut but I've found a few other places before so we stopped in to see what they had. Now the store was very clean and the employees were nice but there are no strictly gluten free options. They use imported flour but that doesn't really help me so I had to pass. The donuts they do have do look very nicely decorated so I'm sure that the regular patrons will have no issues finding something. Parking is pretty intense in this plaza so be prepared to wait on a spot. read more

If you haven't tried these Korean-style donuts yet, you're missing out! I really enjoyed the doughy texture and the fact that they're on the thinner side. The flavors are pretty good overall, but my favorites were definitely the glazed ones--they had a slightly salty aftertaste that I absolutely loved. Keep in mind, these are deep-fried donuts, so don't expect the usual cake or airy texture. They're delicious in their own way! Service was quick and efficient. They didn't have the glazed donuts on display, but they kindly got some from the back for me. The ambiance is very pink, girly, and Barbie-esque--definitely a unique vibe, but it's clean and well-maintained. read more

The first time I tried a mocchinut was at this spot, and it was unforgettable. I visited during the grand opening and quickly began ordering them in bulk for my clinics as a pharmaceutical representative, for my pool league, during tournaments, and as a nightcap treat after date nights with my husband. I always check if Kloee is on shift because she crafts the most delicious drinks and consistently goes above and beyond with her exceptional customer service, warm-heartedness, and flavor recommendations. Plus, she always serves them with a smile that's absolutely contagious! read more
The donuts at mochinut were honestly okay - I've had better. But the coffee was actually so amazing, would highly recommend!! Also the inside is super cute, they even have a little ramen station. I will be back for the drinks. read more

This is a really cute place. The menu is pretty straightforward. I had the taro and Thai tea donuts. The donuts were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The donuts were good and not overly sugary / sweet. The donuts were $3 each. A little pricey than your average donut but definitely worth a splurge every so often. Overall, I enjoyed the donuts and will be back. read more

Cute little spot. Tasty items. Great service. Taro - 5/5 Peach - 4/5 I got there a little late in the evening, so the selection was small. Service was great. The Taro donut was really delicious. The peach was okay. Kinda dry. read more
