    every trip reminds me why it's worth the drive. My fiancé is gluten-free, and hands down, they make the best gluten-free donuts I've ever tried. Honestly, I prefer them over the regular ones. The rice flour they use gives each donut a perfectly crisp bite - if you're gluten-free, you'll be amazed. You do have to order the gluten free. They don't have them out. You have to ask and they make them then for you. Be patient! Service is always friendly and impressively fast, even when they're busy. Highly recommend checking them out.

    Gluten free options!!

    Incredible, friendly service. They do a great job with the demand here. We come here for the amazing gluten free donut options; my son absolutely loves it too! My favorite is the tiramisu... yum!!!

    Better donuts. Better ingredients. Donut kitchen. These are the best donuts in McKinney, and it's not close. These donuts are made with love and real ingredients that don't make you feel like you need probiotic after even if you eat 4 or 12 like me. Seriously, if you are going to go get donuts this is the place in McKinney. Even if you have to drive 15 minutes out of the way, it's worth it. Each bite makes you speechless.

    Gluten free chocolate frosted donuts.
    Kristin M.

    OMG - Gluten free donuts!!! The chocolate frosted was decent size, slightly dense, and tasted almost like the real thing. They don't have them pre-made sitting in the case, they make them to order and it's worth the reasonable wait. The staff were friendly and service was excellent. The space is clean and bright. If you are GF, highly recommend this place.

    The donuts came out quickly a d were affordably priced. The cookie butter lotus donut I got was amazing and I think had coffee flavored filling. Delicious also not pictured I got a kolache which was great next time getting two of those. This place has been around awhile and always delivers with great service.

    Today I got a Nutella cronut. A cronut is a cross between a donut and a croissant. The Nutella Cronut was flaky and delicious. The donuts here are unique and unlike donuts from any other donut shop.

    They had an amazing selection of fun and colorful donuts along with the usual glazed and caked ones. Service was a little off/stiff but I'm ok with that as long as the donuts hit the spot. I would recommend if ones in the area!

    The Donut Kitchen has a wonderful selection of gourmet donuts to suit every taste, as well as basic glazed. We chose the Texas sheet cake and the strawberry shortcake, both were over the top delicious!! We are new to the area and excited to have found this little gem!

    Very cute clean shop. I got there early so no long lines. Very nice staff. A nice selection of classic and specialty flavors. Key lime is a blueberry cake doughnut base with a lime glaze and cream cheese frosting, tangy as you would expect key lime to be soft flavorful blueberry cake doughnut. Ordered a minion doughnut because it was just so cute.. soft cake doughnut with a warm fall spice mix.. they place raised doughnut holes in the box to help keep your doughnuts from moving and getting smashed up. Those were my favorite a very soft airy dough! Haven't eaten the last one yet think I will save it for lunch..

    Blueberry key lime, glazed (2), red velvet and strawberry shortcake
    Kibui B.

    Popped in to sort out a sweet craving and I am glad I did. This store is nestled is the rolling hills near Stonebridge Ranch and the Adriatica. I loved blueberry key lime which had berries in it as well as the glaze and berry on top. Red velvet has a great cake texture and cream was light and airy. Finally the strawberry shortcake was to die for!! My wife enjoyed all three and the kids loved their glazed donuts. Price was $13 for 3 gourmet and 2 glazed which is about right. They also have smoothies, boba and breakfast sandwiches. We will be back with the kids to enjoy our donuts next time.

The bacon was cooked well and the fried egg was cooked perfectly. The grits were just ok. The butter and sugar helped, but wasn't a fan. Drinks: 4 STARS The mimosa board is cute. You can get four mimosas priced fairly. The pineapple flavor was great. The orange was not real orange juice so it was a NO. The pour is definitely heavier on the champagne side so that's a bonus. Overall it was enjoyable and my experience was good. I love the name EGG-CITED it's a fantastic restaurant name.

First off the menu options are varied making it hard to choose just one entree. Did we want pancakes or French toast or biscuits....so hard. We were seated at the back of the restaurant, kitchen side and it was so fascinating to see meals as they were prepped to go out to patrons. Everything looked fresh, delicious, and made to order and the portions were definitely shareable. We started off with brunch cocktails and even received a comp croissant beignet appetizer which was absolutely amazing. They were flacky on the outside and butter soft inside with amazing Nutella dipping sauce. We decided to go with a green goddess salad with all the yummy veggies, French toast, and pancakes for the table. This is a great place to dine alone and with family, friends, or a brunch date. Its very farmhouse chic and cant what to go back and try more of the menu. They will always get a recommendation from me.

First off the Chicken Fried Chicken was delicious prepared very well good flavor and very crispy. The gravy had a lot of flavor as well no salt or pepper needed. I order three eggs over medium the yolk could have been a bit more runny. I didn't care for the has because it did not have any potatoes in it. Service was good but did not knock my socks off. The restaurant is decorated very nice and had a good vibe. I ordered a second piece of sourdough toast which tasted great hence the reason for a second piece. The real home made jam made the toast. When the bill came I was charged $4.50 for a single piece of toast. This was a ridiculous amount for a single piece of toast it was more than my iced tea. Really $2.00 for a piece of bread toasted seems like a reasonable price. I just finished breakfast at another breakfast spot up on University. I really can't compare apples to apples except for the addition pice of toast. $1.99 for two slices of toast. Over all meal was priced fair. I just don't think I will be back here due to the prices.

Our reservations were a…read morebit last minute, so we didn't get there until 8:15pm, but this was kind of nice because the main dining room wasn't very busy. I love the dimmed lights and homey yet upscale feeling this place gives. We had a really amazing server who offered up some great recommendations as first time customers. She had only been there two weeks, but told us she went through a two week training prior so they know their stuff!! Don't be afraid to ask questions. How I would rate our meal: Drinks: I got the amethyst dream and he got the smoke haus. Presentation of both was really nice, enjoyed both drinks but would probably try something different on our next visit. Appetizer: we got the Caesar salad to share. Loved the croutons and the dressing. It seemed a bit small but possibly for one person it would be enough! Entree: I got the crispy chicken breast, the piece of chicken is huge!! All the flavors of the dish come together so well, it's truly one of my most favorite things I've eaten recently! We also tried a side of mashed potatoes which were good and my fiancé got the red fish which he enjoyed. It is pretty light though, so maybe wouldn't recommend if you're REALLY hungry. Dessert: we got the milk and cookies. I wasn't honestly too impressed. I think I expected them to be warmed and gooey and they were not. However reheating the chocolate chip at home was good! For it being a farm to table restaurant, I found the prices to be very reasonable! I already know what I plan to order on our next visit. Also looking forward to bringing some friends/family to the third floor for drinks and live music!

While waiting for our table we wondered up to the 3rd floor. They had live music. The place was jumping up there. We are going to have to look up who is going to be playing and have another married date night. The only downside to the evening was unfortunately the host at the front door. He was rude and severely lacking in communication skills. If anything else had me "meh" I would have taken stars away but everything else made up for his shortcomings.
