“When Im craving a donut this is the place to go. The staff are always friendly and any time of the day they always have multiple selection of donuts. I always recommend friends and family to purchase from them.
I highly recommend you give them a try when you’re in the neighborhood.“

“Melt in your mouth donuts. I got the carrot and orange juice and an apple fritter the size of my head. She made the juice right in front of me, it was delicious. I didn’t plan on stopping at this little donut shop but I’m so glad I did, because I’ll be coming back soon!“

“THE BEST DONUTS in the city!! I will put these authentic donuts against any of them out there. Play around if you want to, but these are delicious. Get there early, and have cash ready, you will be so glad you did. My favorite is the Sour Cream and the Old Fashioned, delicious!“

“Mom and Pop store...they make you feel like family.. Everything is cooked perfectly..arrive early....“

“Absolutely in love with this place. Gigi and her mom have built something special here. The BEST gluten free donuts I have ever had. I’ve been gluten free for five years and have been consistently disappointed with crumbly, dry donuts. Not anymore. This place has changed the game. Their donuts are perfectly moist and amazingly flavorful. I am beaming after visiting this place. Easily my new favorite spot and I will definitely be coming back. Impeccable vibes from the super chill baristas.“

“It’s a total hole in the wall but 100/10 (yes 100/10) recommend. First day I went, I was scared go get out of my car but glad I did! Their donuts are amazing!!! You can tell they are made from scratch and with care. I got their iced coffee, it’s amazing! I don’t know what they do to it. But get it. They seem to be owned by sweet Asian/korean family, where English clearly isn’t their first language, so communication was a bit tougher….. but damn they have an amazing personality!! Great sense of humor, always smiling and laughing. I’m an out if towner, they recognized me immediately ok only a second video and even remembered I was going home that day. I wish they were near my house. (Well actually I’m not. I’d spend too much money and get way too fat) anyways, go give them a try!“

“Best doughnuts in Pasadena and everything tastes fresh“

“I have been going to Rose’s since the early 90’s, I even met my husband there while in high school. Rose’s is a staple of our community, always a kind face, a kind welcome and conversation to be had. Wonderful people, delicious food! Unlike any other!“

“Wow their glazed is one of the best I’ve tasted. Texture and flavor like Krispy Kreme without as much sugar. Chocolate bar was too - best chocolate bar I had in a while, perfect sweet and dough airiness. All the circular donuts had a little bit too much dough air but it was still very chewy, like donut tree’s dough airiness but problem with donut tree is the dough is too rigid.
This place has some donuts that are better than rainbow donuts. I would say they’re pretty on par for food quality, except this place is much more enticing due to box presentation and friendly staff/owner with literate English. But the chocolate bar and glazed is too good!!“

“So my brother brought donuts over to my house and he bought them from these. These are the best donuts I think I've ever tried. He bought the croissant donuts to make the one that I'm eating. They're so flaky and they have layers. No lie. This is like the best don't I think I've ever had in my life and it's so close to home. I've never been to this donut shop. I think maybe I stopped there before but never really paid attention. Didn't get the croissant donuts. These are a must try the croissant donuts. I give it a 10 out of 10. And he said that was like $17 for a dozen of donuts. That's not bad because other places charge more.“

“I'm new in the neighborhood, from New York. They make great coffee, doughnuts, drinks and sandwiches. The girl was pleasant and spoke politely. The prices are good and this will now be my go to coffee shop. I highly recommend this coffee spot.“

“Delicious food. Came in due to traffic and found this little gem. Tlayudas are massive and has generous servings of cheese with tomato and avocado 🥑

Ended ordering a Cafe de olla and a pan dulce.

Staff are very nice and attentive too“

“Love this place! :)“

“I do really like it here the owner is super friendly not rude like other owners, his lady making the sandwiches is super nice as well and helps as a Spanish translator, if that helps, the donuts are absolutely fresh and fluffy and the croissants are super super delicious fluffy and crispy!! I like to eat here once in a while when I’m craving a good breakfast before work , he’s always busy and everybody seems to know him and I don’t think I have seen anyone not buy a dozen donuts here !! 5 stars highly recommend !!“

“His doughnuts are the 'Best!" Get their early B4 they are ALL GONE!!! My favorite is Jonathan's Grandma's apple fritter! 'BEST DONUTS EVER!" DELICIOUSLY FRESH,TASTY TIME!¡ 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩 🍩“

“I love this place pillowy doughnuts fresh soft best doughnuts I’ve been coming here since I was a little kid girl with my with my grandma now at 48yrs old I drive to El Monte to have my coffee n doughnuts n I bring my friends here polite. Family owned I will always support n bring my money here“

“Best shaved ice ever!“

“I discovered JJs by accident when I made an improper u turn into traffic, and it was one of the best mistakes of my life. I dream of their breakfast sandwiches, especially the croissant one. By far some of the best quality and amount of food for your money and the friendly staff make the experience even more enjoyable. You wouldn't assume this from driving past, but JJs is a Michelin star restaurant in the making and I am obligated to make a pitstop any time I drive through along the 10.“

“Wow... The doughnuts are AMAZING.... the donuts dough is so soft.. I was reluctant to get into the place due to the outside appearance, but the donuts and cakes they make are delicious, and like I said the dough is so tender and soft... It's my new favorite place to get donuts ?. Definitely will come back and I 100% recommend this donut shop. Go in and try it you won't be disappointed. They also have sandwiches and the drinks are super hot... I got a vanilla cappuccino and the drink was super hot ...“

“Excellent service, sweet ladies, great prices & a humble atmosphere�“

“Donuts are so fresh and delish. Been going there since they opened. Lunch is also good and freash.“

“This Yum Yum donuts is THE BEST in the San Gabriel area. The staff is very polite, professional and efficient. Both Sophia and Viegney are wonderfully genuine human beings who are kind and ready to be of service to others. The baker is phenomenal, his donuts are not greasy/oily and they are very well done fresh each day. If you want to eat something very Yummy; Yum Yum donuts at Maine and Los Angeles St is THE PLACE.“

“The donuts here are the BOMB. There is nothing fancy about them, they have all the usual ones a donut place should have like glazed, twists, devilsfood etc. But these donuts are delicious. They are perfectly sweet with a perfect consistency. I could eat a whole box! The only thing that I'm not happy about is that their prices have gotten kind of expensive. I also used to get a discount when I ordered a dozen or more, but now it's close to $20 bucks. I used to get a dozen+ every weekend, but now I'll maybe get one dozen a month or just stop in and just get a couple of chocolate glazed. I don't know if it's just inflation or if they have changed management or owners. Overall, if you want a GOOD donut, you need to goto this place. I recommend the chocolate glazed they taste like heven.“

“Some of the best donuts around. Have been the same for many many years. Food and coffee are great. Service always with a smile. She always refuses my tip and throws in extra donuts. Prices are super. I drive out of my way when I want a good donut to go there. Hope they never change!“

“best chow mein ive ever have and good service 👍 10/10“

“Everytime I come here, I get the same things (a dozen) and the lady always charges me more then the man does. I like it when he's there, he's way more friendlier than she is. They always give you a baker's dozen, which is pretty cool not too many places do that anymore. Last time we went, for our 13th he gave us this big butterfly looking cinnamon roll with raspberry in it...man was that good! Their donuts are always fresh and great tasting.“

“Donuts and coffee were outstanding! Location is perfect!“

“Solid, no frills donut place. It’s not fancy, no exotic flavors here but it’s clean, there’s seating, and their donuts are fresh and tasty. Just wish they were open every day so I can come any day of the week but they deserve a day off.“

“by far they have the best donuts! My taste buds never have had enough, i come here mostly every day and love how nice and welcoming the workers are. Everyone is super friendly! keep up the good job 👏🏽

also, they’re open until 10 pm! so if your craving an amazing snack COME HERE YOU WONT REGRET IT“

“It's a great little place. Another lost gem in Los Amgeles,please check it out. I live a block away,this place has so many options. Oh and ice cream,banana splits...❤️ IT!“

“I think It's a family donut shop. It's small but warm. Many seniors hangout and having coffee and donuts. Unlike the chain stores they have fancy menu. This Daily Donuts menu is simple but good enough for you to enjoy a simple breakfast. Also, less than $5 will do. In chain coffee shop, ha ha you got to pay at least $10.Nowadays, I will try to support more small business rather than big chain stores.?Oh! I got a free donut hole. ?“

“My daughter and I love visiting here the for the corn dogs you can't go wrong with the potato, half mozzarella, half sausage, corn dog. The customer service is great the food is made on the spot very delicious. The donut are so beautiful and fluffy so delicious they will make your mouth water.“

“Just a great family-owned shop. They’ve got some of the best donuts I have ever had. I am from San Francisco, and I can tell you, these donuts are better than any I have had in the city. Their sandwiches are a great size, especially for the price. $12 for a hot cup of coffee, huge sandwich with all the fixings, side of hot chilis and a large, perfectly fried glazed donut. I wish this family could have a location everywhere. Best of luck to their business!“

“After having a horrible day I decided to go with my granddaughter and a friend with the thought of just getting a donut. My granddaughter and friend decided on couple drinks that I hadn't anticipated needing money for needless to say I only had enough to purchase their items and I was ok with that. The employee asked if I had decided on what I wanted I told her I was fine it had been a bad day and just wanted to take my granddaughter she asked if I was sure I said yes . After paying for their items with literally exact money on hand she handed me a cute little donut I mentioned It wasn't mine and she smiled and said she wished me a better day I thanked her and walked out holding tears because that little gesture meant the world.
A great Thank you to that employee from someone who battles with depression.“

“Fresh donuts and hot coffee, really big space to relax and lots of parking on a busy street.
Standard family run donut shop, the matriarch doesn’t need to say anything and you know who’s the boss. If you’re getting your tire changed or repaired, nice place to have a snack.“

“One of the best donut shops in LA County. They make amazing cinnamon crumb donuts that are even better when fresh out of the oven. The service is great too. The older lady always has my donuts ready when I come in and is always wishing me a good day. Very welcoming atmosphere!“

“Stopped in on a whim while doing laundry.
Delicious coffee, delicious sandwiches, and delicious donuts!
Service was prompt and the woman who served us was very sweet and patient with us.
Atmosphere is comfortable and clean.“

“I love a good old fashion donut. I have tried many donut places. If you want light, chewy dough with glazed top and flakes all over your lips. Each bite crave some more. I recommend this donut shop to you! Their donut holes are amazing and delicious as well. I love how kind and effective they are as they help welcoming customers each day. I haven’t been in a while but the atmosphere was very welcoming. I felt safe. Love the shop smell from the last time I have visited. Highly recommend!“

“When I first moved to SGV three years ago, I went on a quest to find my goto donut shop. I tried many in the area, but was fortunate to find this one in my backyard, but not originally on my radar because it’s on the other side of the 210 freeway. It’s a traditional donut shop, but their donuts, jalapeño croissant sandwiches, and apple fritters are done just right. Not all shops are created equal!“

“It was late Friday night and I was craving a donut. SK Donuts was close by and I stopped in. I bought my favorite chocolate covered custard donut and it was fabulous! So much creamy custard inside and the donut was soft and tasty. I will go back to SK Donuts and try some different types.“

“Stopped by around 3:00 p.m. ordered a a chocolate bar I thought like at most donut shops the donut would be not as fresh but to My surprise it was soft and frosting was delicious . Gonna try it again when I come home from work and see if it was just my imagination because I haven't had a donut that good in a long time like 20 years.“

“Charming neighborhood gem. The mix of classic donuts styles and flavors on offer are all worth trying. Soft and airy dough, baked to perfection. You get the expertise of the in house baker who has been running this shop for decades. Family run. Always a pleasure to visit.“
