    6-pack, fries, ube milk tea, half beef/half cheese dog
    Melissa Y.

    Family-friendly environment. Easy to order through the kiosk, but may take a while to get your food, as they're made-to-order to ensure freshness. Food is good but on the pricier side for snacks/dessert. Mochi donuts were soft, chewy, and not too sweet. Fries were piping hot and crispy. Korean cheese dogs gave a nice long cheese pull with each bite. They made a mistake on our original order and apologetically rectified it, while gifting a donut for having us wait. Great customer service. Will be back when in the mood for some (not too) sweet treats!

    This review really should be 1 or 2 stars; however, I only tried the donuts, so I am giving them the benefit of the doubt here. We stopped into Mochinut in the early afternoon to check things out. Ended up ordering a 3-pack of donuts. The donuts were good. They have this chewy mochi-like texture that is satisfying but doesn't add much to the donut's flavor. The flavors we ordered were ok. The Fruity Pebbles donut was the best. My issues start with the prices. $12 for 3 donuts is way too much. Any local donut shop is selling way better donuts for way less money. Second, the owner or manager seemed to be present, but he wasn't working, and he had his children with him. That in and of itself is not an issue, but then watching his kids run back and forth between the kitchen seemed irresponsible and unsanitary. They also left a huge mess in the dining room, which the man instructed a staff member to clean up as he left. At least while we were visiting, that didn't happen. My third issue is the ordering process. I hate when an employee is standing at the front counter, but you are directed to a tablet to place your order anyway. Then on top of that, there is a mandatory tip? Absolutely not. I did not try the savory food items. So perhaps I am missing something that would make this place a 4- or 5-star restaurant. But my experience was not great. Lots of room to improve. I likely won't return for a while, as there are certainly better places for donuts nearby.

    Cute packaging for our rice dog and mochi donut order

    Came to see how their mochi donuts compared to the ones we enjoy in Hawaii. The staff greeted us as we walked in around 5:30 pm. It wasn't busy with only a couple tables occupied. I had looked online prior to see what kind of offerings they had and it seemed like a wide variety of donuts. Once we started ordering on their one operational kiosk, it only offered maybe 6 different flavors (not sure if it was cause they sold out of some flavors or just offer a limited bunch each day). We picked out a strawberry cheesecake, mango sticky rice, and toasted marshmallow mochi donut plus a rice dog with just mozzarella. It took a little bit of wait time for our order to come out but the rice dog was really crunchy and light on the batter and super melted mozzarella in the center. Delicious! We tried bites of each donut and my favorite was the mango sticky rice. The mango drizzle made the donut pop with flavor. The other two were ok, didn't seem to do anything to distinguish the sugary flavors it was supposed to be. But overall I really liked the chewy texture of the mochi and would be happy with just a plain glaze. We will have to return to try one of their Taki rice dogs and see what other mochi donut flavors they have.

    5/17/26 Missed the soft opening, but made it in today.. Surprised and glad it wasn't too busy.. Step up to the kiosk to place your order.. Went with six donuts .. Great ambiance with cool music.. I'm not a big mochi person but they did have a pistachio chocolate one...

    It is great to have a mochi donut shop in south reno! The location is wonderful, you can have a snack break while shopping or before going to the movies. When you go in, you place your order at the kiosk and they are pretty quick to have your order done. It is a nice restaurant with big windows and outdoor seating! I really enjoyed the Dubai mochi donut and the watermelon juice - yum!!

    South Reno finally has a Mochinut and it was worth the wait! Still not 100% perfect but definitely a lot better than what the first location was. I was happy they weren't busy because we received our order so fast! But I also want it to be busy just so I can see if they can handle it. There are two kiosks available this time to place your order. The other wasn't working so that was already kind of worrisome. I'm sure it's for their coconut jelly since I think the kiosks are different sizes and was right to the display case. After we placed our order, the front counter asked if I wanted my receipt. The kiosk doesn't have a printer and I feel like that's a little inefficient when business starts to pick up because he's also the only one handing out the orders. There's also an iPad near him so I'm hoping you can go up to him if it's ever busy to place your order. The mochi donuts were excellent! I think my favorite this time around is the tiramisu and the strawberry cheesecake. There were 6 flavors available but I was told they would rotate flavors once in a while. My older child had the potato crusted half (beef) and half (cheese.) She really enjoyed it and it came out looking good. It wasn't just a huge hot mess of whatever whatever from the first location's grand opening. I didn't get a corndog this time but I will get my Flaming Hot Cheetos all beef when we come back! The seating area is a lot bigger than Mae Anne's. I feel like this should have been the first location to open. Mochinut gets a lot of crap because of the way the business was handled on its first year and so far everything here is excellent! I really hope they become successful at the Summit. Mochinut is such an excellent place to visit and eat and this location is what the other locations from California are known for. Let's support their business! I even told the front counter to let the owner know that he did a great job this time. Mochinut for the win!

    Better than I expected! I don't normally like donuts so when mochinut opened right next to my yoga studio a few days ago, I was skeptical. But I came in and tried the choco kit kat flavor and I enjoyed it. It seems like the perfect place for teenagers featuring weird flavors and bright colors and a clean modern interior. The texture of these donuts is softer and fluffier, not cloying or dense or cakey which is what I prefer. They are very cute and aesthetic and pretty! I can't wait to come back and try the boba as I adore boba.

    Nice to have a Mochinut near our house. Very simple set up. You order and pay at a kiosk and wait for it to come out. They have other items like hot dogs and various drinks. Several tables if you want to dine in. Check it out.

    The employees were incredibly friendly, and the food was absolutely delicious. My daughter and I ordered the spicy mozzarella, fries, and donuts -- everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. For drinks, I had the crème brûlée matcha tea, which was outstanding, and my daughter enjoyed the tiger tea. The entire place has a cozy, cute atmosphere that makes you want to stay awhile. I truly love this spot. The food was amazing, and the service made it even better.

    Kiosk (the one you can order food/drinks only) the other one near by door works for drinks only

    Visited in the late afternoon and it was pretty busy. The ordering setup was a bit confusing there are two kiosks one near the entrance for drinks only and another by the cashier for both food and drinks. That definitely caused some confusion for first time customers. We ordered 6 mochi donuts strawberry cheesecake Dubai chocolate mango sticky rice Choco Kit Kat Vietnamese coffee. Overall, they were on the sweeter side some a bit too sweet like the Choco Kit Kat. A couple felt a bit bland especially the Vietnamese coffee which had the aroma but not much real coffee flavor. Favorites were the strawberry cheesecake and Dubai chocolate good balance flavorful without being overly sweet. The mango sticky rice was interesting and different though not the best pairing in my opinion... For drinks we tried the Ube Matcha Einspanner and Tiger Sugar Dirty Latte. The Ube Matcha was pretty flat in flavor while the Tiger Sugar was strong and slightly reminded me of Vietnamese coffee with sweetness added actually pretty good. We stayed to eat and found out they sold out of mochi donuts by around 5pm which led to a lot of customers leaving disappointed. That seems like an issue especially since mochi donuts feel like their main item. Staffing also seemed very limited just the owner and family running everything. Tables weren't very clean with crumbs left around and the space itself looks partially updated but still feels dated likely from its previous tenant which was a Starbucks... Overall, there is some potential here I would come back to try other flavors and the corn dogs but they still need improvements in stock management cleanliness and the ordering system.

    Kiwi coconut jelly

    Amazing food! The half and half potato dog with the spicy mayo exceeded my expectation! The coconut jelly of phenomenal! I'm not much of a fan of coconut even and loved it! It also comes in this cute glass jar that in definitely keeping to make coffee at home. I've been to other mochinuts in many states, and nothing compares to this location! Good service! They were very kind and helpful when ordering. I love to see a family business!

We ordered the BBQ Pork Buns, Minced Pork Dumplings, and Sui Mai. We took everything home and steamed it ourselves. I also picked up a Napoleon pastry from the bakery case. The BBQ Pork Bun was good with nice flavor. I would order it again, especially since I don't know of many other places in Reno where I can get one of my favorite dim sum items. The Minced Pork Dumplings, however, were not for us. I believe the flavor of the Chinese leek may have been what turned us off. As for the Napoleon, it wasn't very sweet or particularly flavorful, and it made quite a mess to eat. Not something I'd reorder. The Sui Mai was delicious, and I would definitely order it again. This was the winner of our take home feast. While not everything was a hit for us, we'd return for the Sui Mai and BBQ Pork Buns and other explore some other items that we have yet to try.

For an independent bakery scraping by, that makes complete sense. For a thriving six-location restaurant group with real momentum and expansion capital, it feels like a bridge too far.

The display cases are full of beautiful sprinkles and glaze and peanuts and bacon... yup, I was eye-balling that Maple & Bacon! I requested a mixed dozen. Then I saw it... the sign read "Sausage, Jalapeno and Cheese kolache." Ooooh goodness gracious, it was the biggest kolache I'd ever seen. And Id never seen one in Reno or Sparks. They do grow things bigger in TX. I know cuz I lived in Deep East TX. But this is Sparks, NV, and I want to try this. I've eaten a kolache or 2 or 500 in my day. He even offered to warm it up before I asked. I wanted this to be good, no I wanted it yo great. To be the "Whete have you been since I moved back to NV?" it wasn't. I was disappointed. The amount of filling to bread ratio was way off, in my opinion. I expected a sausage, not 6-8 sausage "coins" wrapped in a 7" x 5" dough package. It was soft, and the color was so inviting. It looked like it was gonna be amazing. If you've never tried one, do try Donut Bistro's kolache... It's a soft, warm, savory option. Just make sure to also ask for the Maple & Bacon, cuz that one doesn't miss a point!

My tween declared it "the best milkshake I've ever seen in my life," and honestly, that alone made it worth the stop on our mother-daughter trip.

It's basically a photo op you can drink. The shop itself was surprisingly quiet when we visited in the evening--we had the whole place to ourselves--but there were games to play while waiting for our order (we pulled out Pick Up Sticks, which transported me straight back to my 90s childhood living room). The ladies at the counter were also incredibly kind and patient explaining the menu and flavors to us.
