Got the Cuban and the Hot Chicken. The chicken was greasssyyyy. No flavor just grease. And the Cuban has some flavor but again overpowered by the greasy bun. The wait and the cost was not worth the hype. Plus we really wanted a sweet donut!

6/20/25 - tutti fruity and lavender wedding. The tutti fruity was one of the worst things I’ve ever put in my mouth. I don’t know what I even ate. The lavender wedding was decent except that it was drenched in oil like the fryer wasn’t hot enough. I wouldn’t eat these if I was PAID $4-6 a donut, which is what these cost.

Tonight was a blueberry stuffed donut and a chocolate glazed with raspberry sauce. Both were excellent! Looking forward to going again and trying more flavors. Such a cute, unique idea of a place!

Okay I’m going to preface this and say I was not paid to say this at all-BUT when I tell you the donuts I had changed my my entire outlook on life for the better I mean it. And I get ‘you’re letting a donut change your mindset’ YES I AM- they were that freaking good! My great good friend went for us, because we work across the street in the Austin street for truck park (not naming which one I don’t get paid to advertise hehe) but she had gotten the pulled pork donut and the lemon blueberry donut. Now listen I am not a coleslaw girly, but it was divine, delicious, scrumptious and the pork tasted amazing. Now that lemon blueberry donut had me wishing I had more. Literally clutching my pearls as I enjoyed this donut. I will forever remember these donuts and I cannot recommend them enough. For suresies will be back. Love ya ✨

Nice little hidden spot only open specific hours and days. Not too much of a wait. Menu is always different. They will not change your life, but always cool to stop by and check out the new flavors after a night in Denton.

Such a wonderfully Denton experience. Steaky steak donut was top notch. Hilarious venue. Wonderful service.

This is a Denton staple, if you're in town on a Friday or Saturday around 10pm you have got to try it

Back Dough feels like one of the best kept secrets in the DFW area.The concept is pretty simple. They're only open for a few hours weekly on both Friday and Saturday nights, and they operate out the back of a popular Steakhouse. There are only ever two items, maybe three on their menu, $6 each. These menu items most commonly come in the form of a gourmet donut, but tonight showed me they sometimes spice things up (tonight offered an Italian steak and pepper sandwich!) Tonight's donut offering was Tiramisu.Unfortunately I ate the evidence and didn't snag any good photos, but let me just say that Back Dough has the absolute best and freshest gourmet donut offerings in the DFW area. You're not going to find a better donut anywhere, truly. Believe me; I've tried very passionately.They don't serve up absolute banger flavors every week, but if you're fortunate enough to go when they're offering something like their Maple Bacon flavored donut... My god. Restaurant quality bacon with amazing delicious creme filling... You're not going to find anywhere else serving something like that unless they're a fancy dining establishment.It's a truly unique experience. I'll try to snap some photos next time I go.If you're having a drink on the Denton Square on a Friday or Saturday night, do yourself a favor and watch the clock, and when it's about 5 minutes till 10 PM, mosey on over to Back Dough and get yourself a gourmet donut you won't find anywhere else. I'd recommend getting there right when they open so they're not sold out on any flavors. The demand can get crazy at times.

When I first went to Back Dough I wasn't the biggest fan because I didn't like what they had. Now me and my cousin go there weekly. We both enjoy it. The bread is really good. The feeling is great. We had creme Brule and it was so good. I also had the steak and cheese and that was good as well. The veggies were good, not slimy and old. We look forward to what flavors they have every week.

Had been wanting to try this place for awhile and it did not disappoint!! I had a lemony custard donut that was the perfect texture and not overwhelmingly sweet like most donuts are. I also had a margarita ice pop that was really good. The lady at the window was super friendly!
