    Cinnamon Roll,Jelly Filled & glazed donuts
    John C.

    Tried chocolate bars which are our new favorite. We are also ordering the glazed donuts. They have the most delicious flavor and are perfectly glazed. They bake continuously during the day and are the freshest doughnuts I have ever had. Ham and cheese croissants are also delicious. My go to place.

    That crumb donut texture is insane

    They are the nicest family ever. I ran for a morning sweet treat for my girlfriend and went overboard. I had a bite of the maple old fashioned and crueler, both amazing maple flavors. The blueberry is always my absolute favorite and we got a cinnamon sugar cronut (luxurious textures, would be in Louis Vuitton cafe) and the crumb. The girls in there were in the best moods laughing and joking with everyone, helping everyone as soon as they walked in laughing and setting the trajectory of the day on a happy path! I got all of those donuts under $10! I love this place and especially love Melissa who does all the fantastic donut art. This place is clean happy and inviting!

    Their Cronut IS GOOD. I've never had green thai tea before and it did not disappoint soo refreshing. We got helped immediately and got recommended some other yummy looking pastries. I'd definitely come back again especially if you're a student by CSULB and need a pick-me-up. Def the place to check out.

    Spent $11, and I got a croissant donut, a fruit strudel with cream cheese, a maple bar, and really good Thai tea in a medium sized coke cup. This is a 24 hour mom and pop donut shop, based locally in Long Beach off Palo Verde and Stearns, that serves really good donuts that don't skimp on flavors, yet they're still at the best prices in the city. If you want donuts and you live in LB, please support this spot!

    I'm a huge donut fan (they're my favorite dessert) and Simone's impressed me! They offer a variety of both traditional and cake donuts that all looked delicious and were reasonably priced. I ordered a cronut and it might be the best I've had. My husband ordered an old fashioned donut and loved it as well. I came on a Saturday morning and there was a decent amount of people there, but the line moved quickly. Service was friendly and efficient. It's located in a strip mall with a small parking lot.

    I was visiting Long Beach over Thanksgiving and decided to check out Simone's Donuts on Thursday morning around 10 a.m. Honestly, what a find! Even as someone not from the area, I felt welcomed right away. What made the stop memorable: * Fresh and fun flavors. I tried their Turkey Donut -- yes, a turkey-shaped donut for Thanksgiving -- and it was surprisingly delicious and super festive. It's the kind of whimsical treat that puts a smile on your face before the first bite. * Lots of variety. From creative holiday specials to classics, they have something for every mood. I also grabbed a couple of other donuts to go, and each one was soft, fresh, and perfectly sweet. * Friendly service. The staff was kind and patient as I stared at the cases trying to decide -- always appreciated, especially when you're visiting and unfamiliar with the selection. * Great prices for great donuts. Easy to indulge without feeling guilty about your wallet. As a traveler, I love discovering local gems -- and Simone's is definitely one I'll remember. If you're ever in Long Beach, whether you're a local or just passing through for a holiday like I was, this place deserves a stop. I'll be coming back next time I'm in town!

    These donuts are so good! We were in the Long Beach area and I was craving some good old fashion donuts. I looked in the area and saw that these had some highly rated old fashion donuts which were right up my alley. When we arrived here we saw a lot of people here on the Saturday morning. This got us excited cause big crowds usually mean good food and luckily they were quick to serve here so we didn't have to wait long. We got 2 old fashion donuts and a cronut and they were both amazing. The cronuts were some of the best I have had in recent memory and same with the old fashion. The price for these donuts were also very reasonable too. Another positive is that they're open 24 hours so you can have your donut needs met 24 hours of the day. Overall this is the perfect donut place. It's amazing donuts at a reasonable price what's not to like. We are definitely thinking about returning here in the future.

    A great lowkey place for late night donuts, ham and cheese croissants, and green Thai tea!! I got their ham and cheese croissant with jalapeño, a huge apple fritter, one blueberry donut, and of course an iced green Thai tea. Everything was just as expected and really fulfilled my late night cravings. I was saddened to find out my blueberry donut I had saved for the morning was eaten by my little sister, but all the more reason to come back! This is seaside bakery's sister shop and if you're not a fan of the half hour lines, you should come check this place out! This place isn't on the beach like seaside bakery, but you could grab it to go and drive down to one of the shipyards and have a serene late night picnic nearby. I also saved 20 minutes going here instead of seaside since I'm coming from the 626 area. This place also has inside seating which Seaside does not and you're not freezing in the cold eating your food. Plenty of parking as it is in a small plaza! The area around it can be a bit dark at night so my friend and I were a little spooked. Not sure if they have a public bathroom.

    Their wonderful donut arrangement!!

    The experience was extremely enjoyable!! The lady behind the counter is very polite and fast to serve. I used the TooGood2Go app because I'm poor lolz but I still wanted a sweet treat. This was the perfect solution and gave me several donuts with different flavors. The store itself was cozy but the parking is not that great to be honest. Also, it's fairly cheap to get on just a regular day. Hehehe

    Once again, Simone's kills it with the best donuts in town! Coffee isn't good but it's 1.90 but it's forgivable. I got my standard plain and coconut glazed. Immaculate. The service is always good because they are well-staffed. The inside is clean and they have bars for half and half and sugar to put in your coffee. Plenty of seating because most people are in and out.

    We ordered custom donuts from this shop for my niece's 2nd birthday, and they turned out absolutely perfect Not only were they adorable and exactly what we asked for, but they were also fresh and delicious. Everyone loved them, especially my niece. Highly recommend this spot for custom orders and special celebrations

    First time coming here in the evening! Fresh donuts being trayed as I waited! Just picked up a few (not my usual 2-3 dozen!), Apple Fritters and Blueberry donuts. Fresh and Tasty! Simone's is our favorite local donut place! Friendly service and great donuts!

    Wow!!! All I can say is top tier donuts!! A good friend of mine always has customized Donuts at her kids birthdays and she gave me the reference when I asked for my granddaughters 5th bday this past weekend!! Michelle got right back to me and really worked with me on customizing my granddaughters themed donuts for her dessert table at her birthday party. "Donut hesitate to contact Michelle at Simone's Donuts for all your donut needs"! Absolutely loved them!

Each one is packed with flavor, making you wish you had ordered a dozen instead of just one or two. Given their size, I'd recommend two donuts per person. They bake everything fresh to order and offer a wide variety of flavors, and the staff is welcoming and helpful when recommending what to try. With plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, it's also a great spot to work remotely or catch up on emails. Also make sure to check out their cute merch items when you're waiting on your order!

What made them different is they used taro flour and cooked them in coconut oil. Some of their flavors were tropical. Now I can write about how the oil smell emanating from the store made me nauseous whenever I passed by during business hours. It's weird because I didn't think bad of the donuts themselves and could stand to eat them. I will say after having them on two prior occasions, they made an impression on me when they participated in the yearly Belmont Shore chocolate festival. They offered a freshly chocolate glazed donut. It was so delicious having it fresh as opposed to letting it sit and have later. Thanks for the memories! I won't forget you, Holey Grail!

I'm glad to see this is more of least a normal donut shop with real normal donuts. I'm tired of these new fancy donut shops specializing in "creative" donuts with all kind of crazy toppings like every sweet cereal you grew up with priced like at $5.00 a donut or something. I go in and can tell this is one of those Asian donut shops that opened all over down here in SoCal. I think they might be Cambodian, nothing against Asians making donuts, they're the ones that started using the pink boxes we all know. Asians make the best fried chicken, so why not donuts? I look at all the donuts in the cases and they seem like all the familiar ones. I order a dozen and just point to the ones I want. The even have bear claws. I got one of those just for me. There's croissant stuff too. Service is friendly and efficient. The interior is a little dated but I'm here for donuts, not a fancy date or something. I get the donuts and eat that bear claw on my way back to the hotel to meet up with my crew. Yes, they were surprised to have nice donuts, so nothing like a happy crew to make them get the work done.

I got lucky- It was about a half hour before closing and there were no other customers. Cute little place! I was helped by Ilyas, the manager. What a stellar individual! I told him it was my first time, and my preferences (not big on frosting, but like interesting flavor combos) and he walked me through the different types. I was happily surprised to see that they carried some traditional donuts as well as the frosted themed ones! I found that this shop was related to Simones donuts which is a great business! They even do cookie tins and caramels. A couple of the special edition donuts looked so decadent and flavorful but more like a dessert that I commented. He then brought out for me one that was a brand new item and it sounded perfect- a sugar donut topped with strawberry mascarpone encircling a pandan center and I had to get it. He even let me have my themed matcha donut without the fancy little emblem for $1 less! So nice. Those, with a biscoff donut and a logo pin completed my purchase. The pandan topping was sweet but the mascarpone was reminiscent of a strawberry yogurt and the flavors blended perfectly. The other donuts were huge, fluffy and perfectly textured. I would have liked a stronger biscoff and matcha strawberry flavor in those crumbles but at least they were not sweet! Just delicious. The prices are fairly high but I will definitely stop by occasionally to see what delicious creations they are whipping up and get myself a treat!

The flavor WAS NOT cookies and cream. It was a regular doughnut with chocolate frosting and design on top. I thought there would be filing inside of cookies and cream or the frosting at least, but no. I think these doughnuts are just for the aesthetics. The only reason I'm giving 3 stars was because the apple fritter my husband got was good. I tried a few bites and it was very tasty. You get the taste of apple. And the crunch from the exterior with it being light and fluffy on the inside. I'm disappointed because I've been wanting to try this place out for the longest time and my doughnut did not exceed my expectations.

As I entered the parking lot I witnessed a lady hanging out of the window of a car missing a rear bumper, cursing at a minivan that looked like it had recently been involved in a series of hit-and-run crimes. I'm unclear what occurred before I got there, but kept my head down and quickly parked and scurried inside. The entrance had cardboard on the ground laid out like some sort of Oscar the Grouch red carpet. There were two people sitting at the middle two tables with portable shopping carts filled with assorted belongings. The interior matched the rest of neighborhood with random stuff laid out on counter tops, and a general dirty feeling that made me consider whether I wanted to buy food here, but I was already inside. There was a single woman working the counter. She was polite and matter of fact. I had promised my kids donuts, so I ordered my box to go. While she used appropriate tongs to put them in the box, she didn't bother to fully close or seal the box. Just looking to get out of there as quickly as possible, I headed immediately back to my car but was followed by an unknown man shouting at me asking if I could spare a dollar. I quickly fidgeted for my keys and pulled the door closed and locked it behind me. This was at 9am. I cannot imagine this place late at night. The donuts were basic and not overly sweet, more of a fried bread. My kids ate a few bites of each but it wasn't worth the stress of getting them.

Customer service was okay. I was going to order more but then saw some type of bug flying in there with the pastries so I decided on nothing else. I even pointed it out to them and they didn't say or do anything. I don't think I will be coming back here but was good to try!

    Dubai chocolate donut and Vietnamese ice coffee. Owner said if you like it sweet, get it with extra condensed milk. Both were amazing!
