I unfortunately have to update my review . Boba here is still top notch. The last few times I've come here for donuts - not so much. All items with chocolate glaze have been tasting weird. The texture of their donuts changed as well - greasy and crumbly. Not sure why but it's a little disappointing! I assume it's a recipe change - please go back to how it used to be. read more

Came here Sunday morning at 7:30 am, the variety of donuts available was sad, my kids love powdered sugar donuts and they had none. I picked up a sprinkle and chocolate since I had so little to choose from. The price was high compared to the shop down the street, unfortunately I won't be back to since this was a second occurrence. read more

Meh, I went there to get a few donuts for the family and they didn't have a huge selection. No white cake chocolate nuts, no crumb cake. Two of my favorites. I realize the cost of materials and food has gone up tremendously and therefore we're all paying higher prices and these donuts aren't cheap but tasted like they were made with artificial sweetener. The size of the donuts was relatively small. Now, I would be happy with a smaller than usual size donut if the quality was excellent but to have to pay for an artificial flavored, small donut wasn't worth it. read more

Standard donuts created here in Santa Paula. Easily accessed from 126 fwy by exiting Palm Ave. then head north. Great hours to facilitate donut consumption. Typical service for a donut shop in the area... no greeting, waits for your order. We sampled a few items while passing through one Saturday morning... DONUT HOLES: Truthfully, wasn't expecting much, but these were quite yummy. Slight crisp to outside shell, nice glaze, and soft flaky interior. Good stuff! APPLE FRITTER: Outside is nicely crisp with many apple pieces in every bite. I enjoyed this. FRENCH CRULLER: Eh. Spongy. No crispness. I've had better. Decent donut option to consider when in or passing through Santa Paula. Good sized donuts. Prices are reasonable. Variety of drinks are also available to help wash these things down. read more

I haven't been to this shop in years. Right away I noticed the colorful donuts behind the glass. I got a sprinkles and buttermilk bar donut. I also got a cookies and cream boba with EASY boba. I don't know if it was a language barrier but I'm pretty sure she didn't understand me. I got a chunk of boba in every sip. Not what I was going for, to be honest! Come to find out you have to ASK for whipped cream (how would I know that?) and so the little young girl behind the counter added it for me. While the tips of her fingers got in my drink while doing so. Gah. I pray her hands were clean. Maybe I'll be back. Don't know yet. But good news is the Cookies & Cream boba is tasty! The consistency is weird though, kind of like it's half-melted even though she made it right in front of me. Haven't had Boba enough to know exactly how it's supposed to be? Pray I don't regret this. read more

Discovered Moonlight Donuts by accident, as I originally wanted to find a place that sells strawberry banana smoothies. The reviews here seemed promising so my husband and I drove here to try it out. This donut shop has BY FAR the best boba smoothies. They use real fruits and it tastes AMAZING! The boba isn't too chewy or soggy, either - which is how I love it. We've tried the ham and cheese croissants, the donut holes, the oreo donut - just about everything and it's amazing. We've only gone during the early/late afternoon and it hasn't been too busy. My husband dropped by extremely early once in the morning and they seemed to be busy, so if you wanna try it out without feeling pressured or overwhelmed, definitely stop by when there's less of a crowd. Moonlight Donuts appears to be family-owned, and each time we've gone there's been a different worker. All are extremely nice and accommodating! Would recommend. read more

Wow, pretty damn good! I had seen a few check ins from my friends so stopped into to see what's going down. Great selection of donuts and croissants with a subtle tweek on classics. Great flavor and very soft. I did notice that there a couple of not so savory reviews. 1. Cookies and creme Boba..that stuff is awesome! I haven't tried the other options but this one is definitely one of my favorites already. 2. Being closed too early on a specific day..uhh..hours are PAINTED clearly on the window and on a dozen donuts box lol.. Check them out if you are around in the area!

Please note, This review is for the Food Truck only…read more I really wanted to love this place. I love smashburgers and I was excited to find another eatery near my work as restaurants are pretty limited on this side of town. They were a little behind schedule opening but went ahead and took my order shortly after 12. At that point there were a handful of other people waiting and I was the first to put my order through. I opted for the double smash burger without pickles and the cheese sauce on the side. The lady who took my order was very friendly and a few minutes after ordering, handed me one of those buzzers that will go off when my order is ready. She let me know it would be a little bit because of the fries...I had no issue with that, however, it was NOT "a little bit." It was THIRTY SEVEN minutes from the time I paid to when my order was ready. Almost my entire lunch break was gone by the time I got back to work. I feel it was wrong not to tell me up front before I paid that it was going to be over half an hour wait. There also wasn't really much acknowledgement of how long the wait was when I picked up my order. I would have gone somewhere else had I known that it would be such a long wait. Once I finally got back to work to eat my food, I definitely enjoyed the burger. The grilled onions were a nice touch and it was flavorful. I found myself craving a nice piece of crisp lettuce though...it would have made it much better. The fries unfortunately, were horrible. They were so overly fried and greasy I had two and threw out the rest. I have never done that before and the fact that I waited 37 minutes for those fries made it sting even more. It also wasn't cheap at $18 for the burger and fries. I have never had french fries before with that kind of fried texture...it was very strange to me. I would come back for the smash burger if they made it an option to order without the fries. Maybe some people like their fries like this but I just couldn't stomach them.

Great selection, and these are new items that are a must try. Plenty of munchies items to try outread more
