    This one had a donut that obviously broke but this is how it was given ,

    Very disappointed. It appears they made a lame extra sheet of sub par just about plain donuts. The guy seemed a lil irked. Told me at first could only fill 2 of the orders. Then I said how do I get my money back. Instead. He was like. I'll just give you fresh. Now just to let anyone reading this know. I've been using this app for a yr or two now. This is the first time I've gotten donuts that are not a variety and - this experience will have me never recommending or using Christy's. It's a shame too. I was bringing them to teachers who could have had a great experience and brought you more business.

    I am always on the lookout for donut shops. So when I spotted Christy's Donuts in Fullerton, I just had to drop in. The strip mall they are located in has definitely seen better days. That is no fault of the shop though. Inside the shop, it appeared clean and pleasant. Customer service was good as well. I purchased my favorite kind of donut. Whenever I see that a shop has a Custard Filled Chocolate donut, then that is what I will try. Their version was good. Did not stand out over other shops, but it tasted fresh. No Lotto or Scratcher tickets sold here unlike many other mom and pop donut shops. Would not deter me from coming in whenever I am in the neighborhood, though.

    Dried veggies and mustard covered veggies

    If you come here make sure you quadruple check that they got you order. This morning it was a while 20 min ordeal for whatever reason. There was no people when we came and in and it was still unclear. However they did charge us only to later say they forget to charge something else. When I finally got to eat my sandwich what did I see? Old dried veggies and mustard! It would've been nice to know that it came with especially if they confirmed if I wanted mayo, salt and pepper. Why leave out mustard??? Now 1/3 of the veggies are not edible.

    If you're in for some simple donuts around this part of the neighborhood, Christy's Donuts is an option. In the morning I would have coworkers offer donuts from here. Overall, they taste okay, nothing too crazy, they're plain simple and sweet. In those early part of the day they do offer them fresh and warm, with no complaints. If you would like a better variety it's best to come in the morning, because in the afternoon there can be a chance that the selection of donuts can be limited due to the fact they close around 5 p.m. Outside of the fried sweet treats, Christy's offer really good creamy smoothies and that's what I come here for the most part. I would normally order their "Strawberry Banana Smoothie". Around $4-$5 for a large size, I would get them extra blended without having chunks of ice, and they make them from scratch using fresh fruits. My other go-to drink here would be their "Thai-Iced Tea" it taste decent and you can tell of its creamy appearance outside the cup. On my visits, there was a few times the staff can be a bit rushy, but service has been okay and they never fail when making my refreshing smoothies. They do have breakfast sandwiches on the menu and maybe I'll give that a shot to start off my day for next time.

    My Donut celebration! Party in my mouth! Inhaling powdered sugar! LOVE!!!

    Go ahead and skip this place. Donuts are hard and stale and not good, meanwhile the croissants aren't fully baked and doughy and gross.

The restaurant itself is small and cozy with a comfortable atmosphere, but seating is limited. It can get busy during peak hours, so waiting is expected. There are also outdoor tables along the street that you can use when the weather is nice. Prices and portion sizes are reasonable, making it a good option for a casual breakfast or brunch. They were out of cold brew during my visit, so I ordered an iced coffee instead, but it was served a bit lukewarm, which was slightly disappointing. The omelet and Cobb salad were both flavorful and well prepared. The staff were friendly and provided good service. Overall, a cozy breakfast spot with solid food and a welcoming atmosphere.

The service was fast and efficient, and the staff stayed attentive throughout our visit, making sure we had everything we needed. One thing I really loved about this cafe was the atmosphere. There are plenty of seating areas, making it a great place to hang out or catch up with friends. The overall vibe is cozy and inviting, which makes me want to keep coming back.

They have a good selection of American food, and I ordered chicken risotto ($24) from the "favorites" section of the menu. Portion sizes here are good, and we were very full after dinner. Service here was basic, and we got everything we needed. Friday night is also a peak time at Downtown Fullerton, so it was hard to find parking spot. However, the ambience here was relaxed. While the chicken risotto was pricy, I enjoyed the mixed flavors and large portion size. The flavor came from the caper-parmesan beurre blanc sauce. It's a slightly creamy butter sauce with mild sweetness and added flavor from white wine. The capers added a very welcome tangy and savory seasoning to the sauce; they're one of my favorite garnishes. The flavors from the breaded chicken and risotto weren't too strong. However, I would've liked the dish more with if they put less parmesan because I enjoyed the flavor from the beurre blanc sauce the most.

The highlight was definitely the atmosphere. They had multiple TVs throughout the restaurant, which made watching the World Cup easy and fun. The servers were also friendly, attentive, and professional, so I have no complaints about the service. Unfortunately, the food and drinks just didn't do it for me. There are better spots in the area, so I probably wouldn't come back.

From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt cold and unwelcoming. The ordering process is done at a kiosk in the front, which gives it more of a fast-food vibe than a café. That's fine but even with that setup I would expect some level of hospitality. After our food was brought to the table, no one checked on us, offered drink refills, or asked if we needed anything. When we were ready to leave, we had to get up ourselves to find takeout containers and bags. Good service can make a meal feel special but poor service can have the opposite effect, I don't see myself returning to Cafe Cultura.
