“ Absolutely amazing doughnuts!!! The dough itself is delicious, its light, airy and the perfect density. The toppings and fillings all taste decadent and freshly made. I cant wait to go back and try some more! ”
“ Its so good. Nice, large, fresh donuts. These donuts are mostly the traditional yeast variety, about double the size of KK or DD. I thought they had a good ratio of donut to icingglaze, not excessively sweet. And the filled donuts had a proper amount of cream or jelly. It would be nice to have a clearer differentiation between the premium and regular donuts, as the premium are not included the 12 doz. special. Service was very friendly, though it is a tight space and could cause a constricted line during busy times. They only have 68 varieties at one time, so dont expect to order 2 dozen expecting all different flavors. ”
