    1/2 Dozen Mochi Donuts
    Shu Huan Y.

    Always a treat here. I love how bright a clean this place is. Got the taro, strawberry cream, chocolate, mango,funnel cake, caramel churro. This was a quick stop and I had a 1/2 dozen mochinut. I love these chewy mochi donuts!

    My friend has been talking this place up as she said it's a must stop when in the plaza shopping at Rocket a Go Go. Today I finally stopped by with her to experience, and loved it! The staff member was super friendly and even advised of their current offer of a free original when you spend $10+. This allowed me to try both a drink and food item, which I enjoyed both! With the heat, I avoid dairy or heavier drinks so I went with a strawberry lemonade which was very refreshing for only $5! Love the cute murals on the wall for photos and it was cozy if you wanted to sip in the air conditioned building. I'll definitely return to try a milk tea in the future as they seem to have an amazing selection to try more items. Plus, a Yelp friend suggested their cold brew so I foresee a visit soon because I adore cold brew!

    The texture of this donut is incredible. I ordered a funnel cake flavored one and it was sooo yummy. Will definitely be back!

    The Tempe location of Mochinut was a vendor at the Lunar New Year Asian Food Festival in North Phoenix held on Saturday the 17th and I am ever so grateful! I ended up getting a 3 pack variety that included the original glazed, strawberry, and taro. I've never had Mochinut before so I figure ordering a single variety pack would be a good way to try it out. I couldn't discern any difference between this and a regular donut in terms of texture. It is definitely less sweet than a regular donut and keeps fresh longer - big pluses in my book. My 2 kiddos took 2 of the Mochinuts the evening I brought it home and I saved the last one for myself to consume 2 days later. The 2 day old Mochinut still tasted as fresh as the day I bought it. A regular donut would've been stale by now. I appreciate how the vendor had the variety packs ready to go so those who want it can pay and go right away. Due to being outside their storefront, they had very limited selections but this was still a great way to introduce their core product to the public who are new to them. The Tempe location I will happily carve out time to visit if I'm in the area. The closer location to me in Peoria is not related to the Tempe store and has disappointing reviews that scares me into not visiting lol. I may still visit anyway if I'm ever over in that area. Thank you to the vendor for the incredible service and making the trek out to this festival!

    Mochi donuts

    I love mochi donuts & boba tea, especially Mochinuts! I love the fun decor. The shop was super clean. I ordered three donuts and an Oreo custard donut ball. I was not a big fan of the donut ball. The chai donut was delicious, but the original is my favorite. They were airy with a good texture. The boba was a bit off the lychee jellies had an odd, almost rubbery, texture. I also got an original mozzarella on a stick with sweet and sour on the side. It's made to order and the cheese was ooey gooey - so delicious!!

    If you're looking for a variety of treats that are not too sweet and that just hit the spot, look no further because this is the place to visit! We stopped by on Saturday around 11am and it was pretty busy. The location was easy to find and the plaza had plenty of parking. The employees were very friendly and gave us enough time to look over the menu. We ordered one Mochi Donut of each of the following flavors: Lychee, Okinawa Milk Tea, Melon, Original, Matcha, and Sugar. We ordered the following drinks: One thai tea with boba, one matcha tea with oatmilk, a strawberry lemonade, and a white peach tea with lychee. We also shared a hot dog which we ordered plain (on the outside) and for the inside we asked for half cheese and half sausage. The Mochi Donut's were delicious! They were soft - not crusty, flavorful, and we could actually taste each of the flavors we chose. These did not have a "greasy" taste like other ones I've tried at other shops. Here all the flavors had their own unique taste and all were very good. My favorite was the "original flavor" and the Okinawa Milk Tea. The white peach tea was perfect since it was soo hot out on the day we visited. The drink was refreshing and it was not overpoweringly sweet. Th e strawberry lemonade also hit the spot. It was cold and refreshing! The hotdog was another favorite of mine. The outside was crunchy / crispy and the yummy-ness was all in the inside.. The cheese was hot and gooey when I took my first bite. Then a few bites later, I was down to the sausage. The sausage was juicy, hot, and tasted really good! I want to say that the sausage was definitely my favorite part, yummy. The inside is super cute and it was very clean. They have a few chairs along the wall where you can sit and eat your treats. Each location is ran by a different entity so you ought to see a difference in the quality of the food and service if you visit a different location. I will most definitely be back soon. The flavors rotate and I can't wait to try some more! :D

    Lychee tea
    Janet Y.

    I initially came cause I was craving some donuts. To my surprise they sold more than just donuts. I got the flamin' hot Korean corn dog filled with mozzerella, half dozen of assorted donuts, and lychee tea. Everything was delicious. My favorite was the Korean corn dog. So good! We will be back.

    I'm nuts about mochi donuts! Made a stop one afternoon when a craving hit. Mochinut has two locations in the valley: Tempe and Peoria. This Tempe location is in a large shopping center with plenty of parking. I was the only customer at the time and was greeted right away. The friendly staff member was patient with me and answered all of my questions. I went with a half dozen with one of each flavor they offered that day: strawberry funnel cake, wildberry yogurt, Korean churro, original, pistachio, and chocolate pebbles. I also got an original K-dog for my son. Couldn't wait until I got home to try the donuts, so I tore off a mochi ball from each donut on my drive home. The mochi dough was perfectly chewy with a slight crunch on the outside. The flavors were subtle and complement the fried dough. Out of the six, my favorite flavor was the pistachio. My son enjoyed the donuts, too and his K-dog. However, the K-dog had very little meat. It took him 2-3 bites before getting any meat.

    Dozen Mochi Donuts
    Tricia K.

    I had never had a mochi donut before but my cousin said I had to try it so here we are! We ordered a bunch of mochi donuts and 3 balls to share! Loved them, especially because they weren't too sweet! The custard ball was probably my favorite though! Yum!! The drinks were amazing too!! The strawberry one was a little too sweet (the kids loved it) but the grapefruit one was perfect if you like grapefruit. Got an original potato K-Dog with sriracha mayo and sweet chilli sauce, and an orange green tea with 50% sugar to go for my son! He's enjoying those as I type!! The owner was so sweet! Our family took over her shop! I told her we need one of these in Miami!! Both the donuts and the teas would be a big hit! If you're in Tempe, come check this location out.

    The kids and I came here on a very very hot day. My car said 118F at one point. My kids enjoy donuts and the corn dogs so this was the place to go. We preordered and the donuts were ready when we got their. The person was making the drinks when we arrive. Given it was such a hot day; there was no other people in the store. I got the three piece mochi donut: raspberry funnel cake,chocolate pocky, and strawberry yogurt. Also Ordered a sparkling strawberry lemonade with popping strawberry boba, Assam milk tea, original corn dog and potatoes corn dog. All very delicious. Very cute and clean store. The person at the counter was friendly, nice and offered to take our pictures as she saw me doing a selfie. Would recommend and will come back.

    I like the soft texture of the Mochinut. Doughnuts come in different varieties and this one is just my style. I don't like the bread variety. A traditional cake doughnut is okay. The Mochinut has a completely different texture than these two types of doughnuts. It is soft and chewy. If I had to pick a doughnut type most similar to it, I would say it is like a Krispy Kreme doughnut in terms of how light and airy it is. The frosting holds most of the flavor in the Mochinut. My favorite is the Hokkaido. They rotate flavors on a weekly basis. I would always go for a flavored mochinut over any of the non flavors ones or powdered sugar or plain glaze. Stores is just the right size for picking up a box of mochinuts to go. Not a lot of seating. Most people probably do take out.

    Strawberry mochi donut
    Dominic K.

    Really cute store. The decoration and atmosphere was very fun and engaging. The staff were very polite and there was barely a line for so many people inside. We tried the strawberry mochi and the fruity pebbles mochi donuts. They were really good. Also nice to find out they are like half the calories as a traditional donut

    Strawberry funnel cake, caramel churro, cookies & cream/ 3 Mochi Donuts
    Natasha H.

    I tried a Mochinut donut at a recent food festival, and they were so good I had to stop by the actual place the next day. 3 donuts were $9 which is pretty reasonable. The churro & caramel churro are my favorite, and the strawberry funnel cake was really good too, and I got the cookies & cream, which was too sweet for my liking but I'm still glad I tried it. The service was alright here, nothing special, but nothing horrible, mostly young college students working when I came. They have boba, Mochi donuts, and Korean corn dogs which I'm excited to try sometime. The place is clean, and has a little seating area and it was not busy when I went. A Mochi donut is made with rice flour and is so unique, chewy, and amazing I find it better than an actual donut lol

Where asking a question feels like you're interrupting someone's day. So today, when I took my son to Ted's Hot Dogs. This is a place I've been going to since the 1900s (as my kids love to remind me ). I didn't expect much. Things had changed since my childhood days, but the food had always remained good! I just missed the days when the same guy worked the grill and knew my name and my order by heart. But then, today... There was Karen. Yes, Karen!! Standing over a grill in 117° Arizona heat, she greeted us with patience, kindness, and an actual smile. She let my son take his time ordering without making him feel rushed. And when the ketchup was empty, she didn't shrug it off or point us in another direction. She didn't hand me a thousand little packets since the pump was empty. She simply took care of it. Was it just ketchup? Sure. But it also wasn't. It was someone choosing to care. When other patrons had notified other staff multiple times it was out - Karen found a simple solution without excuses! These days... that feels rare. We've spent years turning the name "Karen" into a punchline. But today, I met the kind of Karen the world could use a whole lot more of. If you're her manager and you're reading this... take good care of her. Promote her. Clone her if science ever figures that out. Because people like Karen don't just serve food - they create loyal customers who keep coming back!! In a world that tells us what a "Karen" is... be this Karen.

We sat down and waited another 25 minutes until finally our buzzer beeped. We picked up our tray and noticed we were only given 5 hot dogs, not 6. We didn't mention anything just because we saw how busy it still was. The hot dogs were actually pretty good. They were a decent size and flavorful. We really liked the bacon fries and it was enough to share between us three. There was an employee keeping the tables clean and picking up trash - he was friendly. Will de be back to try out some more food!

The line does move extremely fast, due to the fact that the line cooks are definitely not waiting until you get to the counter to take your order. They will call out to anyone in line (regardless of where in line you are) and take your order, yelling it out if needed. It is such a unique and fun experience. The burgers are not overpriced and are phenomenal! It is self serve toppings, after you pay for your order you can go to the topping bar and add as much to your burger as your heart desires. They additionally have other food on the menu such as veggie burger, chicken sandwhiches, chicken tenders, onion rings, fries, fried zuchinni, fried mushrooms, and more.

To start, my burger tasted pretty good. The cheese was good. Bun was a little dry and stale. The lettuce was yellow and chopped and looked several days old and slightly rotten. Two of my tomatoes had active mold growing on them. It was too dark inside to see it but we ate in the car and saw the moldy spot then. The fries are good but way too salty. We really liked the fried mushrooms. But we made our own dipping sauce which was better than the ranch they give you: mix 2/3 mustard and 1/3 Mayo. Tangy and delicious. We get these at "The Windmill" when we go to the jersey shore and the sauce that comes with the fried mushrooms is a horseradish sauce which is amazing (hint hint, Chuck Box). I would eat here again but bring a flashlight to inspect the produce and lower my expectations. It was good, not great. It smelled kind of off in here also. The AC and vents probably need to be cleaned.
