What truly makes this place exceptional, however, is the ownership. The owners are consistently kind, polite, and genuinely dedicated to their customers.

This bakery has easily become my number one go-to spot, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for delicious donuts and a truly welcoming experience. It’s an absolute must-try.“

“Small cafe with a few table but crowded to place your order next to the donut case. Donuts were fresh and flavorful. The staff were friendly and accommodating however the breakfast burrito was not the best - lack of egg and needing a crispy element. The breakfast taco was really good though - potato and bacon (crispy) instead of egg.“

“Some of the best donuts in OC! I’m very particular about the dough used in donuts and personally their donuts are delicious and have an indescribable and unique texture! You definitely get your $ worth with the size of the donuts. The atmosphere is great if you want to chill and relax, and the staff are all attentive and friendly.“

“I’m from SC. I wanted to surf fish while here and brought a rod/reel with me on the plane. I’m here for 5 days total. On day 1 I wanted to try a local doughnut. I saw they had gluten free. I don’t need it but my kids do. I bought some from a dude in a flannel shirt. I thought it weird, but it’s California so whatever. I got them back to the place we were staying and we all sampled about six different doughnuts. 🤯 OH MY GOODNESS!!!!! I’m a Krispy Kreme lifer but DANG THESE ARE GOOD. Today I went back and bought 6 more. These are expensive so there went my fishing budget but it’s worth it because my kids and enlaws loved it. My father enlaw said the maple bacon should be illegal it’s so good. Listen there are a lot of choices here but if you are going to try just 1 or several this should be your first stop and if like me it will be the only one you need. I’m not big on California, sorry, but the only thing better than the weather and scenery are these incredible doughnuts. 🤯“

“By far the most welcoming staff out of any restaurant I have gone to. I've only been going for about a week now and my favorite guy up front already remembers little personal details that I tell him. The coffee and food is great as well, I recommend the ultimate breakfast sandwich on a croissant. I am genuinely upset that it took so long for me to start coming here.“

“Amazing donuts as well as the woman who served me. Getting to know San Clemente I came across this great place close to the beach. I like areas better when they have places like this with such nice, friendly customer service as well as totally delicious donuts; now I like San Clemente even more!“

“Came here a few weeks ago with my little one, was purchasing a couple of donuts, a bottle of milk and a can of Coke. I didn’t realize they didn’t accept Discover cards, only Visa and Mastercard if I’m not mistaken. Long story short, my card declined and a sweet, older woman working that morning said I could leave my name and number and take my items, so long as I came back and paid what I owed. Of course I went back during my lunch break that very same day to get some cash and headed straight to the donut shop to pay my total. The kind lady didn’t have to do that, she could’ve just said “sorry, come back next time”, but she saw my babygirl with me and said she couldn’t let us leave without our treats ❤‍🩹 thank you so much for your trust and generosity. I so wish I would’ve asked for her name. Everyone and anyone in the Mission Viejo area, do yourself a favor and support this amazing local business 💕 Will keep coming back every week 🫶🏼“

“The best restaurant in Mission Viejo and don’t forget all the yummy donuts. Everything is delicious and excellent menu. Staff is very friendly.“

“
A must-visit spot with a great variety of donuts and croissants. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The Ham and cheese croissant reminds me of seaside’s version without the crazy wait!

Customer
The staff was friendly, welcoming, and quick with orders, making the experience easy and pleasant.


Relaxing and comfortable for a quick sit-down, whether you’re grabbing a treat or taking a short break.“

“What an amazing place that opened so early as the night owl myself, it's much really appreciated. It means a lot to get coffee and donuts at a time that I enjoy. And such great people who listen Thank You mister young
You guys are the best.“

“Great donuts and kind employees. When I go here, it's usually at 5am right when they open and I pick up a dozen donuts, some muffins, and often a ham and cheese croissant. The donuts are always fresh and still coming out, and the croissants are fresh and hot. Their old fashion glaze, old fashion maple, and powdered cake donuts are my favorites 👍. Also really like the fat free bran muffin😄!“

“Very delicious donuts!
We were craving donuts and ended up stopping here right before closing. I used to come here as a kid and the donuts have always been delicious!
The owner was soooo kind and gave us a few extra donuts. We ate a lot of them in the car because they were so tasty. Definitely recommend! We will come back the next time we are in the US! Thank you!“

“Pleasant and welcoming atmosphere. The owner was kind enough to come outside and take a photo for me and a business associate. I would go there again and highly recommend it.“

“Stopped in to this shop and everything was delicious! Great variety of donuts, burritos were delicious! Staff was kind and helpful. 5 Stars definitely recommend this place.“

“Pastrami fries were so darn good.“

“Omg! Their breakfast burrito is amazing. Came to kaiser for a doc app and was looking for donuts. Well, I now found my new breakfast burrito place. First bite melted in my mouth. The eggs are fluffy and have a great flavor. The tortilla is soft. Im not one for cheese on my food. But the cheese they use is also soft and melts right into the burrito. The salsa is a must to add onto before a bit. My new spot when I’m in the area 😍“

“The Lox bagel sandwich is so good 😋💕 and the blueberry donuts are amazing! Also service is always 102038829191% amazing.“

“I don't know if it is just me, but the donuts could have been a little more moist throughout. I don't know if that's freshness (I saw they had some that were seemingly made looking like they were taken off the cooking oven) or what should be done to make it so, but that was my experience.“

“Please come here and try the Salvadoran food. Service was great and the donuts were good but the real reason to come here is the other food items available.
We tried the jalapeno and cheese and the mixed meat pupusa's and they were fantastic. We also had the fried plantains with beans and sour cream which was delicious. Had fries and a Salvadoran pork tamale as well.
Highly recommend this gem.“

“Workers (owners?) are so sweet and i’ve never had any issues with anything i’ve gotten here. Baked goods always taste good and the fresh orange juice is soooo good definitely a great local place especially after the bakery by the winery and deli closed a while back“

“It’s rare to find a place that makes good yeast and cake donuts, but they were both delicious here. I knew when I picked up the glazed donut—lighter than I expected, and it did not disappoint! The orange glazed cake donut was bright and citrusy, and the blueberry was tender and flavorful. We also ordered a burrito and the Denver omelet. Burrito was quite large, although the sausage was breakfast links, not crumbled.“

“So sad today was their last day, the owners retired and I'm not sure if there will be new management or not, but ever since moving into a home nearby in 2023, my daughter and I have have become a big fan!

Their donuts have the best soft texture, their vietnamese coffee is Lee's sandwiches concentrate which is my favorite as well, and their brewed drip hot coffee is always fresh. The owners are very nice and always greet you when you walk in. I've visited them at least once a week every other week. Wishing them the best in their retirement!(:“

“I went in this morning and ordered the signature burrito with no ham, cashier was friendly. It was ready quickly and tasted fresh and delicious with a side of green salsa I will return here soon, for another breakfast burrito. They have a very wide selection of donuts and drinks to choose from.“

“The Viejo bagel is one of my favorites! Good donuts! The blended mocha is excellent!“

“Donuts are good. The staff is super friendly and nice. They have tamales and champurrado which I have tried and must say is pretty good. Have been here several times and will keep coming as long as the service stays the same. Happy customer.“

“I went there to get a donut for my son's bday. The lady over there gave me hole donuts free. I didn't expect that but just doing little thing makes you feel more welcoming and comfortable. I love their donuts and the warm atmosphere that they have. Highly recommended“

“Bought my mum a voucher for here last Christmas and she's redeemed it three times since. She raves about it every time. Says the staff are kind, the food is proper, and the prices are fair. That's basically a five-star review from her. We're going together next month. Lovely place clearly.“

“It’s my daughter’s birthday today. Thank you for the birthday treat - free dozen of donuts. She is super excited! She loves Krispy Kreme!“

“Hidden gem! The staff at Forest Cafe was so kind, attentive, and accommodating. I have a pork allergy and they went out of their way to make sure my meal was safe, which I really appreciated.

I had the enchiladas and was honestly pleasantly surprised. I’m super picky with Mexican food because I can make it at home, but every single bite was delicious and full of flavor! My friend ordered the huevos rancheros and said they were exceptional as well.

It’s a clean, small family-owned place with such a welcoming atmosphere. You can really tell they care about their customers and the quality of their food. Definitely going back!“

“Nikki's has the best machaca burritos around. I get them all the time. They are HUGE and so delicious!“

“I got a sausage egg and cheese croissant with avacado and it was probably the BEST I have had in my life! I got a choco and a glazed donut as well. Pretty good but nothing special. The lady working was very nice and engaged in convo. I’ll be back!“

“The best breakfast burrito and sandwich of my life. Linda’s knows how to be generous with their portions and make a hearty breakfast. I love this place, ever since I discovered it I’ve been telling all my friends and family. Their doughnuts are always so fresh and taste better than anywhere else and they have cute designs and variety of flavors. Their orange juice is actually hand squeezed unlike other places that say it is but really isn’t. I couldn’t rave about this place more really.“

“I got a 3 leches cake this past Saturday (9/13) and let me tell you the flavor was amazing. I haven’t had a delicious and moist 3 leches cake in a long time. We would usually buy it from el Molino across the street but the past years their cakes have been super dry! It has nothing of 3 leches,
I was at the plaza where Efren’s bakery is and saw on a facebook group recommending this bakery so decided to try it out, didn’t disappoint! Our guests loved the cake as well! We devoured it!
Will definitely be coming back for more cake and try also their pan dulce!!“

“Love this Dunkin' location! Picked up coffee and munchkins for the office this morning and the $8 meal deal for me. Everything was delicious and my coffee was filled right to the top. The gentleman working the walk-up window was very kind and put a smile on my face!“

“This place is all about getting your dopamine going. Bright colors, lots of sugar. Service is quick, and the $6 meal deal includes a small breakfast taco, some hash brown nuggets, and a coffee. Portions are small and left me a bit unsatisfied. Wifi and outlets at every table is a bonus.“

“Would you be so kind as to offer a smidgen of your time, so that I may share a tale about my wonderful experience at Dunkin' Ds.
As a foreigner on an epic adventure I was withering away severely malnourished when alas I found the most magnificent abode. I stumbled on through the tall dubble doors and behold there stood the most noble looking man, and would you believe my luck when he acted splendidly magnanimous aswell. He, seeing my desperation, swiftly guided me like a wisp towards a most American looking donut topped with icing blue like the sky, an inert custard pinker than a maidens lips, and star shaped sprinkles reminiscent of the milky way. It was the most delectable confection I have ever had the pleasure of consuming. Unfortunately my foreign body was not up to the task of supplying enough insulin to handle the copious amounts of sugar, and now I lay in the hospital weaker than a Victorian child sick with the plague. If this is the last message from me please send my regards to my mother and give my shaufer a raise.

In summary, I shall definitely come again if I get out of th... Ehhhhhhh 💀“
