    The best Mexican food in Homewood is in a donut shop. Insanely good food. Very much a taco truck type menu at lunch and breakfast.

    Breakfast burrito with nuclear hot sauce (it's delicious)

    Donuts are always delicious!!! They have an excellent breakfast burrito that is always a 10/10. Servers are frequently nice and relatively quick with food preparation. Vibes inside are fun. A must stop if you love local food!!!

    So I am not sure what happened, maybe they had a change in ownership, but their donuts are no longer square even though the box still says "Our donuts are square because we don't cut corners".... except they do, they really do! Not a single square donut in the case lol. I actually asked the employee about it and he said they don't do square donuts anymore, so sad. So when I first found Yoyo in 2017 and left my initial review, I thought they had the best donuts in town. After the last and today's visit (had to go twice to verify!), I can no longer say the same. They are still good and I would still go if I was in the area with a craving for a donut; however, I wouldn't make a special trip to specifically go to Yoyo anymore.

    After having lunch at a nearby restaurant, we came here on a late Saturday afternoon. My niece wanted a milk tea , which she said was good. We also grabbed a few donuts while we were here.. Since this was our first time here, they were nice enough to give us two free donuts! Extremely friendly staff & nicely decorated with coffee and donut decor. For the free donuts we tried the Oreo and beignet donut. The beignet donut was the exact replica of an actual beignet as far as taste. A little dry though. I didn't taste the Oreo donut but presentation wise , it was decorated nicely. We purchased a lemon filled donut for my mom and she enjoyed it. For this to be a donut shop , I was taken aback by the fact that their menu consisted of Asian wings, fried fish , tacos , burritos, etc. Perhaps these items do well on their menu but I'm often leery of places that have such a random menu. Overall , we enjoyed our visit here. Maybe I'll try some other items on their menu in the future.

    First time at Yo yo Donuts!

    Great first time at Yoyo Donuts! First, my coffee came out steaming, which was great, but it was very weak. They also have 8 different syrup flavors and can make specialty drinks like lattes, etc. The burritos must be made to order which is great, but the wait was a little bit longer than I had expected. I ordered a bacon and chorizo burrito. They even have avocado inside, which was great! They had tons of different flavors of donuts. They were a little bit dry on top (particularly the coconut), but still good! The service was 10/10! When I come back, I think I'll call ahead for the burritos and probably skip the coffee!

    Pretty cute hidden off little donut shop which also sales Mexican food. I only came for the Boba tea but just had to try a donut because they were right in my face.. how could I resist! I chose a cinnamon donut which was reaaallyy soft after I heated it up. The bread was great and the donut flavor itself was pretty good. The one I chose wasn't too sweet! The Boba Teas I chose were the Mocha Milk Tea and the Earl Grey Lavender! So good but I'll probably keep going to Ikko for my Milk Tea runs since it's a bit closer AND their cups are larger but this place will be a second. The server seemed shy and was not very responsive when I complimented the shops affordable prices but he was quick!

    HIDDEN GEM! This place has incredible breakfast tacos. I'm from Texas and this is the first place I've found real legit breakfast tacos like this. Highly recommended!!!

    I had a sweet tooth baaad! Got a donut or two.. this place is kinda tucked away. It's a very interesting concept of Mexican food and donuts on the menu.. Heeey why have two separate buildings when you can cook and bake in one lol. I had a blueberry donut cake. The best! Sorry no pics. I demolished it. The icing on top was different from anywhere else I tasted. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area.

    Thai tea, pork taco, steak taco, and a glazed donut
    Sabrina R.

    To be honest, the reason I drove here was just for bubble tea. After I walked in though I saw authentic tacos for a GREAT price and had to have some. I would highly reccomend the pork tacos :) Oh so yes back to bubble tea, after I made my purchase, I was also offered any donut of my choice so of course they get bonus points. Great experience overall!

    My husband and I have been on the hunt for the best bobas in town! We had a taro smoothie, the…read morefirst time turned out great but the second time they did not blend the ice thoroughly. So we were biting on chunks of ice, which was not enjoyable. Although we had that issue we would go back again and let them know what happened. The ambiance is casual and the service was fine. The tapioca pearls had a great texture and size, and I enjoyed the taro flavor.

    It's my mission to check out at least one boba shop whenever I travel, here was my experience…read more AMBIANCE: Parking: It's in a plaza. We didn't have much issues as there was a lot of space. Seating: Both inside and outside seating. Great for groups and patio seating outside to keep you dry. Vibes: It's in a plaza, maybe 10 minutes away from Downtown Birmingham. The plaza consists of restaurants, a gym, and a grocery store. The spot itself is spacious, clean, and welcoming. A great place to hang out with friends or be friends. FOOD: Peppermint Boba (Recommend) A seasonal drink that was a pleasant delight. The peppermint wasn't too strong, it was well balanced with milk and the boba was chewy. CUSTOMER SERVICE: Great! The store opened and there was a rush of 3 customers. The kid in front took care of it well. TL; DR OVERALL: 5 Stars. Great! This is a solid enough representation of boba so it's glad to be shared here in the Dirty South! The prices are reasonable, food is delicious, and I appreciated the range/variety they provided. For those craving a boba fix, be sure to check this place out! Shoutouts to Ashley and Tam Duong for bringing this delight to Alabama and best wishes to new owner, Hugo Anguiano, and his team on this business. TIPS: * Check online for their seasonal specials! * Check out their article! https://bhamnow.com/2021/12/17/thirstea-cafe-to-open-at-the-pizitz/

The ambience is so elegant and relaxing. We always have amazing and friendly service after eating our meals we frequent the market for Filipino snacks.

    I will most definitely try this place again !!…read more They had many dishes right up our alley not americanized. So if you want boring food this place is NOT for you. We got so many things to start with Coconut water rice cake. Yes it does have the consistency of a sponge cake. It was good! I also got some Panda red bean buns. Cute and also good! For drinks: Sake, Taro bubble milk tea, and a Thai milk tea. We tried Winter Melon and clam soup For my entree I got Chicken with Lotus root which I enjoyed, My husband got crispy intestine . (My husband said he has never had it done that well-clean taste ) I tried it and it was ok. My son got the Szechuan style sautéed brisket and he ate it up ! To go yep we got sautéed pork belly and eggplant, pork, & basil . Both were also good. The waiter worked his bum off and we gave him a good tip. The only complaint were the young boys working up front who weren't friendly and acted like working was killing them. Why I didn't give you a 5! Otherwise you would have deserved it !!! All the food was delicious! Now on to the market - I like this better than the hometown market why they have many things I haven't seen including Jin noodles I have been looking everywhere for!!!! We bought many things to try including cucumber, orange, and what I thought was Mango potato chips. Nope it was abalone ! Not so good but the orange was good Of course Jin noodles , tiramisu mochi, banana milk rice snacks(yum) , tamarind drink, orange pepper spice, and chili crisp Our cashier though was joyless . Would I go back to both ? Yes I would!!
