    Danny's donuts
    Adriana S.

    Limited selection, donuts don't look anything special I would be fine with that but what was a disappointment was the service , staff isn't friendly they don't greet you as you walk win , they almost seem upset to have customers And the donuts are way over priced Winchells still wins

    Nice and fluffy as usual and those new Malasada donuts are so good I gotta try every flavor!

    We love Danny's! They always have fresh and various varieties of unique donuts everyday. We got to try fresh donuts straight out of the fryer, incredible! What a treat! Same owners as Monterey donuts in Prunedale and Monterey. They're still developing their menu and are taking suggestions and trying new things. We asked them for Ube donuts and they gladly made them, they're so good! I also asked for a whipped cream filled donut as those are my favorite. Which he made for me right on the spot! They also have cronuts which are my friends favorite. There's always something new in the case. They have recently added Boba drinks which I haven't tried yet.

    Sticker box was unexpected but oh so cute.

    I've already been here 3x in the last week! The selection seems limited but I don't mind, the doughnuts taste fresh and delicious. I believe they are just selling them as fast as they are making them which is great! They have "free coffee with a doughnut purchase" which is nice too. (Or you can hit up the Starbucks next door) Next time I'm going savory and trying the ham and cheese croissants. They also have Boba drinks and breakfast sandwiches on the menu. Another little thing that makes me happy here is the little sticker box they have by the register. Just little fun stickers for free. I will be by to drop off some stickers and add to the fun.

    As soon as my daughter and I walked in from the cold rainy day we were greeted by employees and even patrons at Daany's Donut Shop located next to Starbucks.

    Came in around 2:20pm and there was a sign out front that said "hot and fresh batch at 2pm" but the selection was minimal, I don't know if it's because there was a rush or if I misunderstood but yeah. The service was attentive and quick. I wish I had asked more questions. I think what they could do to improve is to either specifically place "regular", "deluxe", and "fancy" in certain spots OR/AND make cute little signages for each donut explaining the name, type, and maybe allergens. I was gonna go with a deluxe dozen but they didn't have too many options so I went with regular for today.

    The donuts were fresh and so delicious. Haven't had a donut that fresh in so long. Service was friendly. This place is a must to try.

    Not sure if these are suppose to be specialty, doesn't look like it. If they are going to charge more for deluxe donuts, then at least add them, please.

Being back in town, I had to give it a try after 15+ years being away. What a let down honestly. We were seated right away which was appreciated. It was about 10am on a Wednesday and we arrived just before the big rush it seemed. To drink, we ordered waters and orange juice and coffee. A whole coffee carafe was left on our table which was a bit of a surprise and the orange juice as advertised tasted freshly squeezed. Before ordering our food, my husband began asking the waiter about gluten free pancakes or waffles (since such was advertised online in a review from 11yrs ago) and before he could even finish the question the waiter cut him off to explain all the pancake and waffle options. My husband kindly asked again and was told they didn't have any specific gluten free options. That's ok, he ordered their Bacado omelette and instead of toast on the side he asked for a side of fruit. I ordered their Cinnamon Bread French Toast and a side of 1 scrambled egg and 1 sausage. I was told the sausage only comes in 2 or 4, and so I chose 2. When the food arrived, I immediately thought this all looks ok. And the taste was just the same. The omelette was not fluffy like you'd expect a highly rated restaurant omelette to be. The side of fruit came in a condiment cup and had 1 grape as well as 3 pieces of other fruit. The hash browns were sad looking, pretty pale and absolutely no crunch. My husband even added salt which was sad and rare to watch him do. My French toast was ok, kind of soggy and didn't have any caramelization or crunch on the outside whatsoever. It's definitely cinnamon toast vs a cinnamon roll French toast and was nothing special. The sausage was the best part which says a lot. I wouldn't come back here because there's infinitely better options minutes away.

We ordered avocado toast, French toast, banana pecan pancake, house potatoes, and an Aperol spritzer. My avocado toast was served on a single very thick piece of bread, which had a very generous amount of avocado smash and was topped off with this delightful and fresh arugula salad. I added an over easy egg for an extra charge that was the perfect balance. The house salad was simple with butter lettuce, cherry tomatoes, radish, cucumber, with a light lemon house dressing that brought the salad together. It was refreshing. The French toast is pretty standard. Nothing that particularly stood out. The banana pecan pancake was delicious and shared with everyone at the table. The house potatoes were extra crispy on the outside but soft on the inside, which I found particularly satisfying. Overall, we had a pleasant experience and found Portabello's to be a good brunch spot in Salinas. The service was fast, the food portions were big, the food tasted fresh, and it was a nice ambiance. I would definitely return for the avocado toast and potatoes. Side note - I noticed Caesar Salad was misspelled on the menu as "Caeser"
