    Apple fritter and a free donut hole!
    Steve F.

    Date of visit: November 22, 2024 I've always been a sucker for a good apple fritter, and I'd been curious to try Rainbow Donuts' version seeing how I pass them every time I visit my fiancee's neighborhood. A couple of weekends ago I finally had the chance. For $3.50, I got a very large apple fritter with a free donut hole thrown in. Much more expensive than what I normally pay for at my local donut stores in San Diego... but I ended up splitting the fritter in two due to its size, and each half made for a delicious part of my breakfast over two days. Plus, that donut hole was also pretty good; might have to get a few more of these on future visits. I was taken aback a bit at how small Rainbow Donuts is on the inside, but the service is nice and as I left, several other customers were coming in. I can see myself coming back to try more of the donuts offered.

    I've probably been coming to this donut shop for over 20 years now. Sad to know that the previous long time owner sold the store a couple years ago, but just want to mention that he and his family were always kind and super friendly. Always enjoyed the quality of donuts here as well as my kids who grew up on these. Ordered half a dozen today and had to get my old fashioned maple. So so good. The new owner threw in some donut holes to fill in the gaps in the box. Ok, I think we can be friends.

    We got these for our early morning meeting today. I usually try to stay away from donuts. The blueberry old fashioned was so delicious and fresh! They have a nice variety. Friendly and good selection.

    i love the donuts here! they have the style i like which is yeast or raised type of dough. these are much fluffier and easier to eat than cake donuts. other than the buttermilk old fashioned, i haven't tried their other cake ones because i always just go for the chocolate, sugar & glazed twist or circle donuts, maple bar, and apple fritter. the old fashioned buttermilk is great and buttery here. it's not dry like many other shops. the owner seems very nice. i've never had bad service here. it's your simple donut shop with the mom and pop feel. this is your friendly no fuss local donut shop.

    Blueberry glazed old fashioned donut ($1.75), sprinkled donut ($1.5), and half dozen donut holes ($1.75)
    Megan L.

    Super cheap mom and pop donut shop! Only $5 for a Blueberry glazed old fashioned donut ($1.75), sprinkled donut ($1.5), and half dozen donut holes ($1.75)! + Blueberry glazed old fashioned donut ($1.75): strong artificial blueberry flavor and a bit too sweet for my liking. (6/10) + Donut holes: very plump, fluffy, and airy! She threw in an extra one for me too :) Loved being able to quickly stop and pick up some donuts on the go! Would definitely return to try other donuts.

    My husband loves going here since he was a kid. We asked if they could make it for our donut wall, and it came out so great! Thank you so much!!! We love Rainbow donuts

    Looks soo tasty  someone pickup one already ^^ Ham, egg and cheese on croissant sandwiches
    Sunnie K.

    Wow Rainbow Donuts did an awesome job making delicious breakfast sandwiches. 20 croissant ham egg and cheese breakfast sandwiches which feed 40 peoples because it was cut in half. I had to pick up before 7 am and it was ready. They put the sandwiches in aluminum tray with aluminum foil to keep it warm. Very thoughtful. The owner, manager & staff were very friendly and professional. Everyone loved it !!! Visually and tasty !!! I heard lots of happiness thanks

    Thank you Lynn for Excellent Customer Service taken all my 8 dozen donuts to be prepared for Friday March 1 st for my son funeral. Thank you Pin & Phiek owners, partners, husband & wife all made sure all the donuts orders prepared perfectly. Not mashed up together or squash. Prepared nicely on big white boxes. Excellent presentation to all our family & friends. Was so fluffy like, how my son Shawn loved. Inflation increased what we remember prices but still yummy & delicious. We just call prior to ordering to be prepared how much we're ordering, so enough to get the selections all the selections we wanted to serve. Thank you again Lynn , Pin & Phiek for caring.

    Just cruising through town and wanted some coffee and donuts at 4am and came across this place. Variety of Donuts are too cute & good & soft! Even had Vietnamese coffee so great! And the man who helped me was very nice and had a good attitude. Also can't forget it was really clean in there too. Yes I would come here again.

    Nice selection of tasty donuts!

The manjoos were 7 for $7 or 15 for $14. I was sharing with my boyfriend and these pastries are gone in a bite, so we went with 15. You shoud bring cash or they have a $0.50 fee on credit card paymenys under $15. A bit pricey for how tiny the snack is. To my surprised they were individually packaged and this location had multiple flavors compared to the locations I've been to prior. They were individually wrapped and premade, not as fresh as what I have had prior. We got 2 of the walnuts, 2 redbean filling, 2 chocolate looking ones, and the rest in original custard. The others were fun to try but the custard is my favorite. A nice snack if I'm already at this H-Mart picking up groceries but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. I like the locations that sell them fresh, when they're warm and tasty. The taiyakis are made fresh to order but it's a bigger pastry.

To be honest, the noodles were pretty salty for me, but my dad really enjoyed it. It was very flavorful and had lots of scallion oil flavor!

The Signature Mixed Noodle has a scallion and soy sauce taste, and it comes with plenty of thick and chewy round noodles. The Spicy Noodle Salad comes with a similar type of thick/round chewy noodles as the signature mixed noodle, but instead of soy sauce flavoring, it comes with a spicy (just slightly) chili and sesame oil sauce. This noodle also includes corn kernels and slices of iceberg lettuce as toppings. Again, plenty of noodles included in each serving as well. This is a very refreshing noodle to be eaten on a hot summer day! Great value considering the portion and taste. Parking wise, there are plenty of spaces as It is located within the Super Hmart plaza. Check it out when in the area. Also want to highlight the great service received as I came by the restaurant about 5-10min before closing. The staff was already in the process of closing, but when she saw me walked in, she was readily available to take my order and I was able to get my order after the closing hour. Definitely worth coming back to try their other dishes/wraps! Come and support our local small businesses.

    I came to charge my car and decided to give this tea spot a try because it looked incredibly busy…read more My thought was, it must be good, right? Luckily, I was right. I ordered the half sweet matcha with oat milk, and it was delicious. The portion size was generous, and despite how busy they were, my drink came out surprisingly fast. I loved that you can order from a touchscreen kiosk and easily customize your drink with all the available add ins. The menu is huge, but the digital ordering system makes it easy to browse and see all your options. The location itself is small with minimal seating, but it has a cute atmosphere and a great vibe. Overall, a solid spot for tea and matcha lovers, and I'd definitely come back to explore more of the menu.

    Convenient and Customizable -- A Solid Go-To My all-time…read morefavorite boba spot was Sunright Tea Studio, but unfortunately it's closed down, so I've been on the lookout for a replacement -- and this place has become my current go-to. What I love most here is the ordering experience. There are multiple large touchscreens where you can fully customize your drink -- sugar level, ice level, add-ons, substitutions, you name it. I almost always go for zero sugar, and the fact that I can do that easily is a huge plus for me. It's the kind of flexibility that modern boba shops should all offer. The portions are generous and the prices are reasonable, which is refreshing compared to some other spots in the area. Is it the most amazing boba I've ever had? Honestly, no -- but the ability to build your drink exactly the way you want it more than makes up for it. There's also a large display screen showing order status, so you always know when your drink is ready. It's a small touch, but it makes the whole experience feel smooth and stress-free. I'll be real though -- I probably drink more coffee from the Starbucks across the street than boba from here. At the end of the day, coffee feels like the healthier daily habit. But when I'm in the mood for something different, this place is where I'll be.

    Amazing bakery in the Fullerton area! Everything I had here was good and delicious…read more There were so many unique and pretty pastries to choose from from cakes to croissants. I got so many pastries. There were no misses. My favorite of the bunch was the blueberry cake. The cake wasn't too sweet, was moist, fluffy, and tasty. I enjoyed the matcha cheesecake, garlic sea salt bread, and raspberry cruffin as well. I also grabbed an egg bacon bread and regular sea salt bread to-go for future breakfasts. Warmed up, these were great in the morning! To drink I had the Banana Pudding Matcha Latte which was not too sweet and yummy! Good matcha flavor and the banana pudding was creamy. Mixed together, it was good. I also enjoyed the crunchy bits in there as well as the real banana slices. I got it at the small size, but the portion was generous. It went well with the pastries. There's some inside seating and tables as well as a bathroom available. There is lots of free parking around the bakery. I went in the afternoon on a Sunday and it was still packed! I love how the bakers were constantly baking even in the afternoon, so they brought out fresh batches of their pastries.

The variety is definitely one of the strongest points here. We tried the Matcha Cruffin, Onion Cream Bread, and Three Cheese Bagel. The Onion Cream Bread was the best of the three. The cream was light and balanced well with the bread, but the onion flavor was pretty much lost. I could barely taste it. The Matcha Cruffin was disappointing. There was matcha powder on top, but absolutely no matcha filling inside. I'm not sure if they changed the recipe or simply missed the filling in ours, but for something sold as a matcha cruffin, I expected an actual matcha presence beyond the topping. The Three Cheese Bagel, made with cheddar, cream cheese, and mozzarella, had good flavor but the texture was much too hard. We were dining in and had it warmed up, yet the bread was still tough and the cheese inside had already hardened. Service was fine, but nothing stood out. Overall, great selection and a nice space, but the pastries we tried were inconsistent.

The music was also moderate, so I was able to focus without any earphones. There was plenty of seating from the center table to seating at the wall and even window seats. There were outlets available near seatings at the wall. There was also free WiFi as well. At first it indicated you would only have WiFi access for 1 hour. However, after the hour, I reconnected and it refreshed the timer. For my coffee, I decided to get an iced Dalgona latte. They provided many pieces of Dalgona. I did ask to get this at regular sweetness and ice. Overall, after the Dalgona dissolved with the ice, it felt like a good amount of sweetness. It was decent, but I've come back to try other drinks!
