Yummy donuts ! Still not the best but they're good. They are very well made & such creativity with flavors & decor. Definitely try if there's one around you!

I visited two days in a row . I really enjoyed the coffee - I had an iced latte with skim and I loved that the coffee was not bitter at all. I tried the glazed donut and it didn't disappoint. Today we tried three different donuts and all were delicious. The store is clean and the two gentleman working were lovely. I'll be back.

So happy to have The Salty Donut somewhat nearby. When my fellow Yelper Sally wanted to stop here for a sweet treat, I was so excited. I had no idea there was a Salty Donut in Aventura. We tried the pistachio cannoli which was so delicious. Service was great as always and this spot is cute and smaller than other locations, but they have what matters - the donuts! Looking forward to coming back for more soon.

So happy to see that Salty Donut has opened in the Aventura area. The service was excellent, and the tiny shop, but there are plenty of places to sit and enjoy your donuts around the area.

First in line, first to review! As an OG fan of The Salty (I'm talking Wynwood camper days) I had to visit on opening day to the newest location in Aventura Mall. It is in the nook of the Esplande right next to Sweetgreen so not hard to find and easy to find parking. I was looking forward to getting their pop tarts (because they are so good) but was informed that they won't be selling them at this location. BUMMER!! I hope this is only temporary because it's delish! In addition to my swag bag, stickers and post card, I ordered the Cookie Monster, Cookie Butter Banana Cream and classics Maple Bacon and Guava and Cheese. The service was fast but the line grew with time of course. I gotta keep up with my workouts because with this new location being around the corner I can see myself ordering often. Haha

Tiny little donut spot nestled between the restaurants in the esplanade. Everyone there is friendly, quick to help, and the donuts are fantastic. I'll include photos, they taste as great as they look!

As a salty veteran and someone who's never missed a visit when wandering through Wynwood, I was beyond thrilled to discover their adorable little sister spot at Aventura Esplanade Mall. The reason she's so itty bitty? They don't bake at this location--they're delivered fresh daily from Wynwood, so you still get that same irresistible taste you love. Personally, I'm all about their cake-style donuts--way more my vibe than the traditional fried ones. Gotta keep myself in check, though, and limit my donut indulgences to just a few dozen times a week .

Really nice NEW location at Esplanade Aventura.... I went when it first opened, seemed like they are in the process of getting settled, i ordered a caramel late, and not sure it's what i got... but i had waited so long that I didn't really feel like complaining.. the donuts are all delicious & consistent with other locations. I hope next to visit soon again!

Good coffee and good donuts. Pretty small area and not any room to sit, but the Plaza its located in does have tables and chairs. Good parking spots.

I'm a salty donut lover. Have always enjoyed the donuts and the coffee. Today we had (and loved) the guava cheese and hazelnut chocolate. We also enjoyed a plain hot latte and an iced cinnamon toast latte. But that's not what stood out to me on this trip- the staff. WOW! I really believe I was meant to meet them- they felt heaven sent with their kindness and compassion. I know this may sound all a bit dramatic for a donut shop review, but they were exceptional employees and humans- I hope their manager sees this and can trace back the 2 wonderful people who worked the shop today 9/12 around 2:15 pm because they are worthy of praise. The shop is cute but I wish there was seating. It took us a long time to find somewhere to sit with our kids and enjoy our treats. We literally walked all the way to the splash pad just to sit down and enjoy while the kids ran around. Will be back :)

Ask the Community - The Salty Donut

Is it located inside the mall?

Hi not directly inside. It's in the new addition of the mall - Esplanade. Easy access from the parking lot in front of it.

After a night of fasting for a day of medical tests in Miami that ended in early afternoon, my…read morestarving friend & I raced to Hollywood Donuts so he could get the breakfast we missed. Slid in an hour before closing; many "regulars" still there, engaging with the friendly owner. I asked the waitress if they could do poached eggs? Yes, of course. Good. Poached eggs, side of feta & spinach, toasted English muffin, to make Eggs Florentine. Not on the menu, no worries, I'll pay whatever, I'll assemble it myself. She came back to ask how many poached eggs? Two please. So excited! So hungry! So sad when I was served two fried eggs. The griddle must've been really hot, because the undersides were brown and scaly. It's why I only like poached. Waitress understood, apologized. No worries, bring me two poached eggs and I'll keep the muffin, spinach, feta. Hot eggs on top will be fine. Friend went ahead and ate his eggs. No complaints. As he neared finishing, my eggs showed up. Poached attempt, but whites not cooked completely, not even hot. So disappointing. Waitress finally came back when he was done and mine were inedible. I was just so sad. The owner must've noticed because she came over and tried to make it right. Took it off the bill. Offered me donuts. I appreciated the offer but no, off the bill was fine. It was then I realized she really cared. She went above and beyond. Put together an insanely generous bag with the day's leftover bagels & a few donuts! We left with this epic haul so when I got home I made my own eggs and had it with the most delicious bagel ever! And the donuts? Amazing! It was the end of day and the griddle person was probably exhausted but I will come back, for donuts and bagels, yes, maybe even for poached eggs, but mostly just for the hospitality. An owner who cares is truly hard to find. And look no further, she's here. Five stars for the service & concern I left happy. :)

Hollywood Donut was okay. I liked the old-school donut shop/diner vibe, and the staff was pleasant…read moreand friendly. It definitely has that nostalgic, no-frills feel that gives the place some character. The donut itself was good, but it didn't taste as fresh as I would've hoped. Nothing was necessarily bad, but it also wasn't somewhere I'd go out of my way to stop at again. If I happened to be in the area and wanted a donut, sure, but it didn't leave me craving a return visit.

Today was my first time ever coming here (although my 76 year old father always sends me to buy…read moreZak's breads at Whole Foods). I must say though... It's been a while since I've gone to a restaurant and the service and food quality was so amazing that it literally made me stop in my tracks but here we are! I started with a hot mocha latte. I am a coffee snob and this drink was made to perfection! Absolutely delicious and I didn't want the cup to end! It was the perfect balance of smoothness and warmth and it was sweetened perfectly! For breakfast, I decided to get the mushroom toast and it was amazing! I was skeptical about the ricotta addition but it was spread on the toast like butter, very plentiful and tasty! That along with the other ingredients used made it taste exceptional! Perfect price point too! I was more than satisfied! Last but not least the service by host staff and waiters was top tier. Very attentive and lots of smiles! They genuinely seemed happy to have me and treated me like a guest in their home. I genuinely can't wait to come back and try everything on the menu! Thank you for an amazing experience!

Phenomenal breakfast!…read more When you roll up outside you are over taken into bread heaven with the smell of the bread gods! Had a great latte, cinnamon roll, a strawberry bun bread thing, salmon chorizo bfast sandwich, avocado toast and phenomenal service! And you can see them making it all!

He couldn't decide what he wanted but I was there for the carrot cake!! It's my favorite. So the lady working let him taste the chocolate peanut butter pie that he ended up getting. I also got a toffee cookie because hey, toffee and cookies are always a good idea. Hubby got a guava and white chocolate cookie. The cream cheese icing on this cake was soooo delicious. It wasn't just sweet it was also buttery. The cake was equally delicious. My husband liked his pie but didn't really like the cookie. My toffee cookie was amazing though. I think guava and white chocolate could be too sweet. Hey, he picked it. My carrot cake was so good, we ventured back out to go again. So yes twice in one trip. There was a guy there with a friend buying a cake because he remembered having it for his birthday party as a kid. Having carried that memory to adulthood let me know this was the real deal.
