They look pretty and have various toppings but they weren’t chewy, were very oily and had an oily aftertaste. Wouldn’t try them again.

Very cozy place to eat at. Variety of different donuts available, and very good customer service. Personal favorite is the rainbow taro mochi donut!!!

My husband bought a box of donuts around 6 pm in the evening on a Sunday. For some reason the oil on the donuts tasted old. I can taste the sugar and donuts were fluffy but I could not get passed the taste of old oil that taste like it had been sitting there all day. I wonder how often they change it. ? I really wanted to like this place. Also, the filling was meh.. Maybe might try them again early morning and they will be made fresh with a better taste.

Ok so there's a disclaimer to this review. We did purchase these donuts around 4/5pm on a Sunday evening so it could be very well the reason why we weren't not the biggest fans. So we had a mochi donut craving and saw that this place was the closest to us. We were looking at what was on display and ordered on the screen. We shortly found out by staff member that if it is not listed on the screen, it means it's sold out. Therefore we didn't get to try the salted egg yolk mochi donut. Bummed but it's ok. We got 2 mochi donuts and 2 malasadas. The mochi donuts seemed stale? When you think of mochi donuts there like a goodness to it and there wasn't for these. I didn't even want to finish mine because I was that disappointed. The Cheerios were stale too? Idk, again. Not sure if that's the way it always is or because it was the end of the night. The malasadas. It was our first time tasting these and the ube one was odd to me. It was almost as if I was eat jam. I was expecting more of a cream? The matcha one was good in terms of the creaminess but the donut itself was kind of mid. Don't think we'd come here again but if someone told me otherwise, that these are the best in the morning when shop opens then ok. Can't rate the place on staff either. Staff was nearly non-existent.

Discovering this hidden gem in LA was a delight! While my mom in Hawaii swears by Malasada donuts, finding them here is usually a challenge. Fortunately, I stumbled upon this fantastic spot that, although known for its Mochi donuts, crafts an exceptional Malasada. The secret? They use the same Mochi dough, resulting in a delightful softness and fluffiness.Being a chocolate enthusiast, I must say their chocolate Malasada is unparalleled. Despite not physically visiting the store, my weekly Postmates orders bring sheer happiness with their unique and irresistible Malasada!

The vibes are impersonal. You walk in and head striaght to order and pay on their touch screen and someone comes out to take the order receipt and start making/compiling my box of donuts. They don't even greet you when they come out. I love mochi donuts and they are lacking on the mochi and taste more like a regular donut. I have tried real and better mochi donuts and don't see myself coming back again.

Great malasadas in Southern California! My partner and I were hunting for malasadas since we went to Hawaii. We were craving them and found this place on Yelp. It was a great suggestion. There was little to no wait, came warm and fresh, and were the perfect little treat. The malasadas were light and fluffy. As having had Leonard's Malasadas, these are not too far from comparison. We got the matcha filled, custard, ube, and taro malasadas. They were all wonderful flavors and we'd love to try more next time!

Stopped by for a sweet treat last Sunday evening! dot & dough was recommended to us by a family member, so I decided to check it out while in the area. After ordering at the kiosk, the food came out pretty quickly, considering that they say 20 minutes for the malasadas. We were the only party in the shop then, so it took about half the time.The malasadas had a lot of filling, which I appreciated. But I think the dough was sacrificed in the process because it broke apart very easily as I took it out of the box. They were pretty sweet and kind of heavy compared to the mochi donuts, but still good treats. The Taiwanese brown sugar filling was my fave from the selection; it reminded me of custard!Their mochi donuts were denser than the ones I've tried from other places. Although the flavor was muted for me, the matcha mochi donut was my fave from the selection. The white chocolate topping was also a nice touch.

The shop is super small and only has an indoor bench to wait and limited outdoor seating. There are malasadas and donuts on display which was nice and staff was helpful answering any questions we had. There was no wait when I came around 8pm on a weekday and our donuts were made fresh in about 10-15min. 9/10 Ube Malasada $2.95 - ube flavor was solid in flavor, rich, and creamy! Definitely my favorite one. 8/10 Matcha Malasada $2.95 - matcha flavor was good but felt a slightly artificial.7/10 Brown Sugar Malasada $2.95 - average in taste. It was same for creaminess and sweetness as the others, but the flavor was just ok. 7.5/10 Ube Mochi Malasada $3.35 - ube flavor was the same, but the main difference was the mochi dough. I think the regular malasada is much better in texture as it is crispy yet chewy, hot, and soft interior that mixes well with the cream. The mochi was way more chewy because it is more dense so also less filling. The ratio was off for filling to dough.

Employee was rude when I asked for a recommendation and when I was handed my order it was face down in a paper bag where most of the icing smeared off

I ordered the 12 mini mochi bites with chocolate drizzle and they were delicious but not as chewy of a consistency as I had expected. Overall was still a wonderful dessert.There's plenty of parking in the back and the store is pretty self serve--the employee only comes out of the back to hand over receipts or the food.

After trying the Dot & Dough Covina location. So we thought we’d try the MP location. They have cute seating outside and lots of yummy flavored to choose from. The milk and cereal and chocolate and chocolate cereal are hot and super tasty. The sugar and cinnamon sugar masacala also served warm. They are really light and fluffy and they melt in your mouth. The Oreo flavor donut is not very good. The hot Cheetos donut was pretty good it was very savory with lots of flavor. The blueberry and banana donut were ok. The location was clean and the employee was nice and helpful. Ten out of ten would totally recommend.

The donuts are incredible, do try. My matcha with soy milk drink had a nice bitterness that I enjoyed personally BUT it was really chalky.
