50 Best Donuts near Sherman Oaks

“Small family run shop. Solid donuts and solid breakfast sandwiches. We live in the neighborhood and come here often.

Note there is not a lot of seating inside so it’s more of a grab and go. There are a few seats outside.“

“Mochinut consists of a wide array of unique flavors and shapes of donuts. Every time I go, I always get surprised by a flavor I haven’t noticed before. The donuts are soft and flavorful, the corn dog is crispy on the outside and the cheesy is stretchy, and the boba is perfectly sweetened.“

“Finally! A good local donut shop in the neighborhood!! I came too late for the blueberry fritter, near closing time, so I splurged on the apple fritter. And a glazed buttermilk bar. I will definitely be back for the blueberry fritter, and the blueberry cake donut.

Both I had were tasty and brought me back to childhood memories of these two favorites.

Easy free parking in the lot right in front with easy access from the side street, Tyrone.“

“I didn’t expect a pastry run to turn into a full-on core memory… but this place pulled it off.

The second you walk in, the smell hits you like a warm hug: vanilla, buttery dough, fresh glaze, and just a hint of cinnamon. It’s the kind of aroma that instantly upgrades your mood. The display case is straight-up edible art. Every donut is perfectly golden, beautifully puffed, and somehow manages to be light and indulgent at the same time.

The donuts deserve their own love letter. The glaze is flawless: glossy, delicate, and sweet without being overpowering. The dough is pillowy soft with that perfect slight chew that lets you know it’s made right. And the filled donuts? They actually mean it when they say “filled.” No sad little pocket. No empty promise. It’s generous, balanced, and ridiculously satisfying.

The freshness is unreal. Nothing tastes greasy or heavy or mass-produced. These donuts taste handcrafted, like someone back there genuinely cares about every batch. You can taste the pride in them.

Now let’s talk about the real show-stealer: the croissants. Everyone needs to know the croissants here are absolutely splendid. Flaky in that crisp, shatter-in-the-best-way kind of way, buttery without being greasy, and soft inside with that perfect layered pull. The kind of croissant where one bite makes you pause and go, “Oh… this is the standard now.” If you come here and skip the croissants, you’re missing a top-tier pastry moment.

Customer service was just as impressive. Friendly, patient, and clearly proud of what they make, which only makes the whole experience better.

I’ve had donuts in different cities, at all hours, from all kinds of places, and nothing comes close. This isn’t just a donut shop. It’s an experience, and it will absolutely ruin other donuts for you in the best way.

10/10. I would fight someone over the last glazed. And I’d win with a croissant in my other hand.“

“Love me a good powdered lemon jelly donut! Brings me back to my childhood when my mom used to bring us a dozen donuts in the morning and I would run to get the powdered donut before my sister. Donuts are always fresh and delicious - never stale.

Staff is always quick and friendly. You can really tell this donut shop is filled with locals from the community as they would know their regular customers by name.

Great little donut shop and love to support small as often as we can. Will definitely be back!“

“I've been coming here a few times a week for five years. Me, my gf and son have become friends with the owner. The sandwiches are fantastic! The donuts are always fresh and taste amazing! Boba here is always great! This place is a constant winner!“

“Been stopping by the place on the way home from work for months now. The hot chocolate is the best around and the donuts are by far the very best in town. Not dry, not greasy but moist and very tasty. The frosting on top is delicious without being too sweet or hard but just right for the taste. Service is very good and fast unless it’s really busy but not their fault when it is because it can get really packed at certain times in the early morning. The sandwiches they make are very tasty also with a wide variety and made to order the way you like. Great place to grab coffee and something for the stomach at a reasonable price. 👍🙂“

“One of the best breakfast veggie sandwiches in the area and for a good price. I ordered a veggie sandwich on an everything bagel and added cheese and egg. This place will definitely be my go to for my morning breakfast when I don't feel like cooking.“

“Great Doughnuts! I would definitely recommend 10/10 👍🏽“

“The best! Worth every penny.“

“Ordered a coffee, sandwich, and a dozen donuts. The coffee was better than I expected. They use real eggs for the breakfast sandwiches, and the donuts I tried were tasty and delicious.

Everyone here was also very friendly and sweet, great spot with a great vibe. 10/10 will visit again.“

“would definitely go here again!!! doughnuts were so delecious!!!“

“Mike at Mama Donuts decorated our donuts as a turntable for our daughter’s 50th birthday. It was a vinyl record party theme! The donuts were amazing! The decor, the taste. They fit the theme and they were scrumptious. Mike was so great! He was responsive and his customer service was excellent. I highly recommend Mama’s Donuts whenever you want donuts!“

“Why despair when you can just donut?“

“My new favorite donut place. Excellent donuts. They can add the cream for you! They even can add toppings like m&ms and oreos. Their breakfast sandwiches are also excellent. Lots of smoothie options and other things I haven't tried get but I'm excited to try new options!“

“Somehow I had never tried this place until about a month ago through Uber eats when I was craving an Apple fritter. Have ordered a few times since and think I’ve found my favorite donut/breakfast sandwich place in LA. Everything is always super fresh even if I order at 3 in the afternoon. The fritter is huge and might be the best I’ve ever had. Bagel breakfast sandwiches are perfect as are the other donuts I’ve had. So happy places like this still exist!!!“

“Make this your go to donut stop!

Amazing spot never let's you down.
Employees love working here and it shows
Whenever I'm in the mood for a sweet treat this is the first place that comes to mind!
The blueberry old fashioned glazed is other godly 😋“

“I've been coming here for the last 4 years and it feels like home. Debbie is literally the most caring person I've ever met and they truly care of their customers. My husband and I come here pretty much every weekend and get sandwiches and iced coffees. The prices are good and the food is delicious. This is a neighborhood staple and you will return!“

“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“

“Good place and good service“

“Best Donuts and Best Sandwiches in town. I love this place. Sandwiches are the Best I ever have. Donuts is really good flavor. I recommend this place for everyone to try. They serve all day breakfast, lunch, dinner. You can call order and pickup fast and easy if you don’t have time.“

“My husband and I stopped in here just a little while ago to get a few donuts and some hot coffee just waiting for urgent Care to open over at Cedars-Sinai thank you for being so friendly so kind of very patient with us this morning when we came in“

“This delicious donut deserves good rate,

Today this coming holiday’s, will be very busy, don’t rushed and be patient I recommend it.
Be consider to all whom work hard.
Thank you so much. 😊“

“I had a taste for some donuts and had seen this place heading home. Well this morning I went over there to check it out. The visit was quick, the service was prompt and the staff was very friendly. There’s not a a lot of room inside, and while you could sit there and eat, you’re probably better off walking out with a box. Also the parking lot is quite small, so maybe there’s 6-7 parking spots.“

“A simple, family-run donut shop that I have been coming to for my entire life. The staff treats you like family, and the donuts are the best in Los Angeles. The Maple Bar, Apple Fritter, and cinnamon roll are stand outs.

To me, this is benchmark I compare all in the city to, and when compared to Miss Donuts, pretty much all fall short. Don't sleep on this hidden gem.“

“The donuts are as big as my head! Highly recommend a dozen. 🤣😂🤣“

“best doughnuts in my life“

“Had the best experience coming here for the first time! The young man that helped my family and I was very nice and generous. On top of that, the quality of the chicken sandwich, breakfast burrito, orange juice and the fluffy donuts were top notch.
We’ll definitely be going back for more! 🍩“

“I go to this tiny little donut shop for fresh, light, traditional donuts - they're open every day of the week starting at 6am and also serve affordable fresh juice smoothies and breakfast sandwiches. Elderly couple has been running this shop as long as I can remember. And I smiled when I saw they had sneaked in some donut holes into my bag!“

“Donut and breakfast sandwich spot, I love this place and make sure I always come here after a wild night because it's the perfect type of greasyness for a hangover haha

The sandwiches are as big as my head, they don't skimp out on ingredients“

“fresh donuts made in house!! can't beat that..“

“I’m in LOVE with these donuts!!! Not to mention how sweet they are in there!!! So nice, incredible donuts that are BETTER than the “other” big donut place out here.... Sorry Cali, Crafted is the place!!!!“

“This is a mom and pop shop run solely by the owner Larry and his wife. They have the best Vietnamese coffee in the whole valley I have searched every nook and cranny and they are the best. The service is amazing im happy to start my day's with a chat with Larry everyday he's the man and support your local shops.“

“I go there every day I used to go for Mr Coffee and donut then one day I was treated to a tuna sandwich and I must say it was delicious and the amount of tuna they put on your sandwich is ridiculous, you almost want to tell him not to put on so much meat let the price they charge for the tuna sandwich makes me keep my mouth shut LOL nice ladies good place to go“

“My boss always gets us donuts from here and they're delicious! Always fluffy and good no matter what time of day, I went for the first time s few months ago and ever since the quality and service stays consistent, friendly, nice, patient staff , good drinks amazing donuts and amazing breakfast sandwhcihes! Made to order and so good! Definitely reccomend and definitely coming back 😋“

“I was coming here to cheat on my diet. I only have a few dollars on me today and well healthy food usually cost more. Not here the fruit cups are cheaper than the grocery stores and I even got a hard boiled egg so I can stick with my protein. Very affordable and good. I will be back.“

“Good place and good service“

“Best baked choco 🍩 .. mmm“

“Great donuts , coffee and bobas family owned super nice family ❤️🙏🏻“

“I absolutely love Star Donut! Every visit is a delightful experience. Their donuts are always fresh, soft, and perfectly sweet, with a great variety to choose from. The glazed and maple bars are my personal favorites, but honestly, you can’t go wrong with any of their options.

Beyond the donuts, the shop offers a nice selection of sandwiches, boba tea, and smoothies—perfect for a quick lunch or snack. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, making the atmosphere warm and inviting.

It’s also worth noting that their prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Whether you’re grabbing a quick coffee and donut on the go or sitting down to enjoy your treat, Star Donut is a gem in Reseda. Highly recommend it to anyone in the area!“

“I was in the mood for some donuts last night and I stopped by around 5 pm. Was greeted really warmly and ordered a dozen donuts to go. The entire atmosphere was very comforting and the staff were very kind. The donuts smelled very fragrant and warm. When I got home I had a raspberry jelly donut and I was absolutely blown away. I have NEVER tasted such a perfect donut in my entire donut eating life lol. The donut had a perfect amount of glaze, the raspberry jelly was sweet and tasted fairly real (not artificial) and the donut was super soft and delicious. I highly recommend checking them out.“

“THEE best donuts, not greasy or oily, fluffy, not too sweet, airy. i've been coming here for over 15 years and they have been consistent every time. If I bring anyone a donut from here they ask where they're from! Sweetest couple runs it, very mom and pop classic donut shop. Make the drive if you're not close by, it's so worth it. I almost don't even want to mention their carrot cake because it's the absolute best and it already sells out but get it if you can! Very LAUSD coffee cake adjacent, soooo delicious.“

“My go-to place for a quick breakfast or lunch. Food is excellent especially for the price and you can get a decent meal for less than many fastfood places these days. They're more than happy to make adjustments and cater to any dietary restrictions you have if they're able too when you order in person as well (ranchero bagel with no meat is a great vegetarian option). They put pickled jalapenos in many of their sandwiches which I love, but you gotta remember to ask to remove them if you can't handle spice. Smoothies/ shakes are all wonderful as well, with the thai iced tea, and cookies and cream in particular standing out. The only thing I havent figured out yet is what day they have the chocolate-chip filled donuts....“

“classic family-run donut shop that does things the right way. donuts are fresh, soft, and not overly sweet, with that perfect balance you expect from a proper neighborhood spot. you can tell they’re made with care, not mass-produced nonsense.

prices are super affordable, service is genuinely friendly, and the whole place has that old-school local vibe that’s hard to find now.“

“I stopped by this donut shop this morning to get some donuts while I was in the shopping center. I came in the early morning so I found parking in the front. I got two glazed donuts and two chocolate glaze donuts. They charge a credit card fee here but it's not a lot. They also have limited seating area here as well. The donuts were okay, I like the chocolate glazed more than the original.“

“The donuts are delicious & fresh! The owner & staff are soo freindly! They also have a variety of other pastry & fresh squeezed oj! Luv the donut queen shop!“

“I go there almost on the daily to buy a Black Milk tea with soy and boba, outstanding staff and service.“

“It's been awhile since I've been here due to the pandemic. I've always stopped in after finishing my laundry in the little shopping plaza. Today was no exception, and man... it's as good as I remembered. Ordered my usual turkey & ham croissant (everything on it) with some OJ. This huge baked croissant filled with cheese, jalapeño and ham caught my eye, so I also got that to go. The sweet owner threw in a free donut as well! Took them home to enjoy. Fresh, comforting and delicious ♡.“

“i can say so much about tasty’s. their donuts are perfection. i always get exactly what i want! the breakfast sandwiches are soooo tasty!! i usually get the ham, egg, cheese and bacon croissant, and it never disappoints :) HUGE fan of their thai iced tea. im always greeted with a smile and wonderful service no matter who’s working the front! prices are great, especially considering the quality treats you’ll get here. if you have a chance, stop by! it is right on burbank blvd, so depending on the time of day it could be a little loud. it’s never been an issue though! i love tasty’s 🫶“

“My favorite local doughnut shop, great service, staff is very friendly. My favorite doughnuts there are the Boston creme, Jelly filled, the blueberry and cereal doughnuts. I mostly order the breakfast croissants and the sandwiches are amazing. The iced coffee is very strong and delicious. The strongest coffee i can find locally, I love it!! Thank you Number 1 Delicious Doughnuts!!“
