Overall, Dey’s offers the best of both worlds: a wide range of tasty, high quality options in a setting that feels energizing and welcoming. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!“

“Was in the air I was looking for a donut spot. When I got to this spot in particular, I came in and I saw they were selling burritos. For under $10 you could get the best breakfast burrito you could find. This burrito is so good. The customer service was amazing. The lady and the man in the front were super cool and nice. 10 out of 10 would come back for another breakfast burrito. And if you’re wondering what it was, it was the sausage.“

“Great donut and sandwich place run by an amazing family. It has some seating available inside. They have a good selection of donuts, and a big selection of sandwiches and various drinks. Everyone is so nice and they move quick. Even when there is a long line, they get through it quick.“

“I like that coming to buy a sandwich here, they are very good and tasty, I really tell you and their very particular attention, they are very friendly. I have been coming here for years and they always treat me very well. The sandwiches are very tasty.“

“Love this place! No mater where I move to I always come back for an ice mocha � and the costumer service is great.“

“Came in around midnight. Not busy at all and plenty of parking. Had been to another Yum Yum with no French crullers, but they had them at this location! Yum yum makes the absolute best crullers. This location was no exception. So light and fluffy, just delicious. Highly recommended. Will be returningApril 2023“

“Delicious always, friendly staff“

“Today I went to Friend's Donuts at about 05:24 A.M. because this place is open 24/7. I like going here, though as far as I know coming here at about 5am in the morning is the guaranteed time to come here to freshly stocked up options. Great place to go to!

🍲 Food: I ordered a box of doughnuts of my choosing that were good.

🥤 Drinks: I ordered the Taro smoothie drink, that's one of my most favourite drinks to choose from in my opinion.

🏡 Atmosphere: The atmosphere is nice, simple and clean.

🛎️ Service: The service is very nice and can accommodate for Spanish and English. I think someone here might also speak Vietnamese as well but I can't confirm that entirely since I've only heard Spanish and English conversations so far from my past visits here. The staff here is friendly, especially if you're the only one there they may even chat up a nice conversation with you if you're a frequent customer here when it's not too busy.

💰 Price: The price is pretty decent and fair, a nice location to stop by for small orders if you're looking to get in and out. The service is quick here, not much of a waiting time.“

“Tried this for the fist time definitely a must try had donuts and the hot dog with mozzarella and included potato on the outside highly recommend“

“These are our favorite donuts! They make them right on the spot for you. It’s so cool watching them get fried and then dipped, glazed, and sprinkled right in front of you. Flavors are always light and delicious. They were very helpful in guiding us what to get.

We got a free scoop of decadently rich chocolate ice cream. They have some really cute rubber duckies as well and some Duck Donut’s gear.“

“Their Jalapeño Ham & Cheese Was So Good!?? Their Hazelnut Coffee Was Really Good Too! Usually w/ Donut Shops Their Coffee Is Watered Down So I Was Hesitant To Get A Coffee But So Glad I Did It Was Strong & Hot! Plus Has So Many Types Of Creamers Available, Definitely Recommend If You’re In The Area.“

“AMAZING donuts, service, and drinks. If you skip out on the glazed donuts and fresh orange juice you are missing out, there’s nothing basic about those classic staples here. We had multiple others that were amazing I just didn’t expect to be so surprised by a glazed donut!“

“Love getting my donuts from here! It's close to home and feels like it's always open. The donuts hit the morning after a night out. The staff is always kind! I love supporting family owned businesses, this is one of my favorites to support! 👍“

“I stopped by here just expecting "another donut shop." I was greeted by friendly staff (owners, perhaps). They were very helpful. I was able to purchase a dozen donuts that were assorted. They have a great variety of donuts. Their other menu items were good, too. Croissants and croissant sandwiches were very good. It was also very clean inside.“

“Its amazing! Owner is supper sweet. I love this place!! Ill be coming almost everyday for there food! The donuts have an unbelievable taste its the best there is! Ive tried there donuts and the ham and cheese jalapeño! Its amazing ive got nothing bad to say abt this place! I love everything abt it“

“The selection is off the charts! 📊 open 24 seven and the #21 is to absolutely die for! 😈 can’t wait to try the rest of their stuff!!!!!! Thanks“

“Love this place! No mater where I move to I always come back for an ice mocha � and the costumer service is great.“

“Randy’s donuts shop has amazing food. Donuts are amazing and the breakfast burritos are delicious. The thing that sets them apart is the friendly service. Everyone in there is nice smiling and very friendly. I would recommend this to anyone.“

“For my family and I. These are the best donuts in the city of Santa Ana CA. Always fresh and don't taste like they were made with reusable burned oil. Great customer service and plenty of parking. I have been going there for over 10 years and the great taste has never changed.“

“❤️❤️❤️❤️ Best Bread and Doughnuts in Santa Ana“

“We were in the area, and I was craving for coffee. I found this place with all the great reviews, so I decided to come by. It is located inside a plaza with lots of parking spaces. Parking was easy. They have both outdoor and in door seatings. Menu seems smaller, but still has enough options. I ordered matcha lavender latter and New Orleans cold brew. Both of our drinks were amazing! The cold brew is my favorite cold brew I have ever tried. I am unsure if it has oak milk in it, but it has a slight sweetness in it, which made it good! The matcha was strong, but not bitter, and it has a strong lavender scent, which I love. The only complaint I have is the size of the drinks were too small, and I was unable to enjoy it more. Too bad I left, or else I might go back and get another one. Cashier was friendly, patient, and kind that he explained different drinks to us. Very modern minimalist decorations, and they have magazine available to read in the store. I will come by again if I am in the area.“

“Probably the best Chinese food I've had; food tastes great and STILL tastes good after reheating!! I'm hard to impress and this place blew it out of the water.
I had the chow mein, beef broccoli, mushroom chicken, and wontons. The wontons were really good too. And it was all actually affordable too!! Better prices than other places I've seen. Will come back if I'm in the area. ❤️✨“

“ordered a chocolate twist doughnut. It was a little bit super sweet for me tasted like they took a chocolate donut and added a glaze on top of it. If you like Krispy Kreme you’d probably like this place but I’m probably gonna go back to Dunkin.“

“Esta super bien tanto como el café y los panes, y más la amabilidad del personal“

“My go-to spot for breakfast, an afternoon pick me up, or a late night sweet treat. Everything is always consistent from food quality to service. The staff is always pleasant and anticipates my order, its already set once they see me walking in. I also enjoy their lunch sandwiches, since I work nearby I love me a turkey deli on a croissant with a green juice. Their coffee is also excellent. It's been owned by a local family who takes pride in their business. Parking can get hectic in the morning but what do you expect since everyone is there for the same thing I am. The lines move fast though, staff is efficient.“

“Their ham cheese egg is really good. My son tried and says it's 👍 Gave them a $15 tip. Like many Cambodians owned donut shops, they work hard for their donuts with egg prices flours and the inflation going up, support small businesses.“
