Fresh and fluffy donuts. We took a bite in the car and immediately drove back for a full dozen. Just make sure you eat them within 2 days of purchase for best quality.

This is our family's go to donut shop. We've tried all of the places in our neighborhood and Sam's is our favorite. This is a no frills just a great quality donut kind of place. The donuts are so pillowy with the right amount of glaze. We love Sam's and come nearly every week!

Donut holes are life. Sam's does life. End of story. My 2 yr old granddaughter has decided to live on them and I'm good with that since they are made at Sam's amazing donut emporium and are basically a little puffy pancake, sans syrup. The icing is MINIMAL and there isn't a stickiness factor with these little whispers of Unicorn love. Perfection and smiles.

I got the #9 (turkey, bacon, egg, cheese, sandwich). Had it on a croissant and added avocado. Total was almost $10. The turkey tasted rubbery. The avocado was fresh. The bacon & eggs were good, but seeing the way she cooked the eggs in the microwave made the whole thing less appealing. Service was meh...She didn't seem happy being there but she did throw in a free donut hole. Maybe life's got her down or maybe it was too early in the morning, whatever it is, I hope she finds a way to enjoy life more. If you gotta work somewhere you don't enjoy working, your customers can feel it as soon as they walk in. It's a competitive business, but if Sam is willing to look at honest feedback and make a few adjustments, this donut shop can have lines out the door. It has so much potential! Good luck Sam's Donuts!

I scream, you scream, we all scream for DONUTS!!! Decided to pass by yum yum donuts and Dunkin' Donuts to support a local shop :-) Came here around 10am, and picked up a dozen donuts for work. From what I remember, minimum cost per donut is about $1.55, and goes up based on type. For a regular dozen it approx. $17 plus tax. Yummy donuts!!! The baker/owner person was kind and sweet.

Donuts are good. But ordered a sausage BACON egg and cheese croissant. Did not get any bacon in my breakfast sandwich.

There are photos showing they make “paczki,” which is a Polish pastry generally eaten on Fat Tuesday. When I called to ask about it, the person who answered was rude and said they don’t make it anymore, and was clearly annoyed that I asked. It’s not my problem 5 people have called you today to ask. Simple solution: update your website and remove the photo.

Best donuts in San Jose, my favorite are the glazed twist donuts, always fresh fluffy not greasy. I wish DoorDash would add them back to their vendor list.
