Though LA has some tough competition, DK's is vying for my top donut shop in the city, especially when it comes to specialty donuts. The Captain Crunch donut? Yum. The strawberry Nutella donut? Delicious. The chocolate chip cookie cro-nuts? To die for! When I have family or friends in town and need a treat or mid-day snack, DK's is one of my best options. Would definitely recommend to anyone! read more

I got some donuts from here off Too Good To Go and they were good, but a bit too oily for me. They were so oily that the oil bled out of the bag they were in. Other than that, the donuts were pretty, unique, and tasty. The staff member helping me out was also super nice. They also have their own designated free parking lot. A donut spot worth checking out! read more

Arguably the best donuts in SaMo. The trifecta of good service, product, and ambiance is in full effect here. I usually come in late, and the smell of fresh donuts wakes your taste buds up. I've tried a wide variety, from classic donuts to bacon donuts and in between. They are the perfect sweet treat, and they're all yummy. Parking is okay, and you're in close proximity of the beach. Definitely a spot to try! read more

We stopped in today as we are currently on a "Donut Tour" lol. The line was out the door so we had to choose quickly. We had the Famous Glazed donut which was good, light, and a little bit greasy. It was tasty and sugary just like a donut should be. We also had the regular glazed donut that was light and sweet. The store isn't very big so expect a line. read more

A co-worker was kind enough to bring some donuts to chase away the Monday blues. This 24-hour family-owned shop has been frying up donuts for over 40 years. Batches are made fresh throughout the day and you'll find a selection of over 100 different varieties, including Vegan & Gluten free, in addition to ONuts (like a cronut) & WowNuts (Waffle + donut hybrid). I would have loved to have tried one of those. However, the box contained a dozen of their famous glazed. The donut was large & fluffy and the gaze was light and not too sweet. It was a nice treat to get through the day. I'm intrigued to pay their store a visit and try some of the creative flavor combinations and a WowNut. read more

24 hour donut shop, I'm in! I loved how many flavors they had and they were unique. It's a small shop but stuffed with donuts. It was tough just to pick six. Donuts I tried: Ube Purple Yam Donut Crumb Butterfly Taro Matcha Oreo #onut Lychee Carnival Fruity Pebbles Glazed French cruller They are good but pretty sweet. It's hard to tell when each donut is fresh. I probably would limit to just a few at a time if I were a local. read more

Ordered: DK'S Famous Glazed O-Nut (~$5) Aya's take: After watching The Donut King documentary, I knew I had to swing by the next time I was in SoCal. The rags to riches story of owner Ted Ngoy was intriguing enough but DK's Donut also offers their Famous Glazed O-Nut which is Los Angeles' first twist on the popular croissant and donut hybrid. They're open 24/7 and despite getting there a little before 8pm, the donut was surprisingly soft & fresh! I love the croissant/donut hybrid which makes it more pillowy and airy. As far as the glaze, it's a nostalgic, comforting, and delicately sweet layer that won't make you feel overindulgent. They have an insane selection to choose from. Worth a try if you're in the area! read more

We were celebrating a birthday, and wanted to make it extra special. While a lot of donut shops make good donuts, especially in various pockets of LA, none make them look quite as creative as DK's Donuts does. They have the Cookie Monster donut, and other interesting flavors such as strawberry shortcake, mango, pistachio, blueberry, and so many other creative specialty donuts, I had to drive all the way here at 7:15am on a Saturday morning. They also have regular donuts. I bought a half-a-dozen of specialty and half-a-dozen of regular options (which I could get at any donut shops). The staff here is polite, not pushy, and efficient. This place doesn't have any seating, but then again, does any donut shop? I can see myself coming here again. read more

This donut shop is open 24 hours and has a wide selection to choose from. They have donuts, breakfast, and lunch as well. Their specialty donuts are really cute!! The service is efficient . I like getting the #13 which is a croissant sandwich that comes with eggs, bacon and cheese. I pay an additional charge to get avocado and sausage added to that, and it is so delicious. It's very filling so I usually just eat half. I tried the strawberry banana smoothie, and it was decent. Since this place is open 24hrs, I'm not sure when they make the donuts and how fresh they are. read more

Sometimes the donuts are pretty good, but a lot of the times I've gone, they're kinda stale. I went yesterday around 10 am and spent $22 on mediocre donuts that were pretty stale. They were super dry and bland. When the donuts are fresh, they're pretty good, but it really depends on how lucky you are when you go. I stopped getting donuts here because of that incident.

Wide variety of donuts. Taro - little flavor Protein - not sure how much protein is within, just tasted like a blander red velvet cake donut (really good if there actually is a lot of protein) Ube - solid light flavored cake donut Matcha cronut - little oily in flavor, frosting and oreo on top was a bit much, but it was a good size Strawberry cheesecake - really light yeast donut with strong cheesecake flavor! Classic glazed - airy and light, a little chewy! Reminds me of stans donuts in Santa Clara but a little drier. Sesame - extremely aromatic and strong flavor Rose pistachio - similar to the sesame, great flavor! Service was nice and quick. Mainly a takeout place, but there's a little bar counter for coffee customizations/napkins that we stood at to eat a few donuts quickly. read more

Was looking for a late night Thai tea / donut place and stumbled across this place in Santa Monica. Walked in and was greeted pretty normally. Service started off okay but then when asking the guy behind the counter for a second to overlook the options he became very short and dismissive. Ordered two Thai teas and 3 Donuts. Total came out to about $26 and honestly was the worst Thai tea I've had, was very sour almost tasted spoiled. Was really looking to finding a spot I could come back to again but service was just unacceptable. read more

This place has the cutest looking donuts you can't find anywhere else. They're really good too. However this review is for my order from Too Good To Go. It's an app that gives you a deal for the food that's leftover at the end of the day and you get to help prevent food waste. Pretty cool concept. This place is on there for a $7 surprise bag. I got 8 different donuts in the bag. You don't get to choose the store chooses for you. 3 of them were cronuts. I was super excited because that's a great deal! However it was the worst deal lol. All of the donuts were so stale!!! I took one bite of some of them, the others were so stale I didn't want to take a bite! All of the donuts went straight into the trash. They felt like 2 day old donuts instead of donuts from the end of the day. I did coke pretty late at night like 11pm so not sure if that's why they were so bad? Maybe if you come earlier in the day it's better quality? But if you're thinking of doing the too good to go deal here I wouldn't do it again so order at your own risk. A shame because their donuts are really good when they're not rock hard old lol. read more

Nice establishment. Staff is nice. First time here. Donuts are okay but I was really disappointed with the Ube donut. It didn't have a strong Ube flavor. The double dipped chocolate donut was very chocolaty but I was hoping for a double dip in the chocolate glaze. I might come back and try other flavors but they don't have any orange flavor.. just orange creamsicle. I like orange without the creamsicle. Worth another look. read more

Don't believe the hype. DK's sells the most offensively overpriced and underflavored donuts I've had in my entire life. $4.25 for a single, raised "Thai tea" donut, that tastes absolutely nothing like Thai tea or Thai anything or anything even remotely tea related is the biggest bait and switch grift in donut history. I guarantee you could take out a loan to finance the purchase of a dozen of DK's "exotically" and "novelly" flavored donuts, do a blind taste test and be completely unable to discern the difference between their "matcha green" "lavender" or "mint chip" donuts. Frankly, the donuts are so not fresh that you could toss a paper mache donut into the test and still be unable to tell the difference. Long story short- eff this place and their heinously overpriced and over hyped donuts. For less money you can get exponentially better donuts at Randy's. Sh!!!!!!t, for less money you can even get phenomenal vegan donuts from Donut Friend. read more

Sometimes I go through a donut phase. Usually it's years in the making. Stopped by and ordered a Bavarian Cream, Mini Apple Fritter, Chocolate Raised, and a Red Velvet. All delicious, moist, and perfect. The Bavarian is a real treat. Dks' remains Santa Monica's premier spot for Artisan Doughnuts, just as it has since debuting over 4 decades ago. The donut prices are reasonable but they do have those fancy creative ones which will cost you more. Want something to savory?

They have something for everyone. Really great selection of donuts. I've already been here twice and I will definitely come back. I have fond memories of waking up early on Saturday morning and going to the mom and pop hardware store with my Dad and they would have donuts for their customers. I always got the french cruller. Still to this day, I must get a french cruller. Dk's makes a great french cruller. All of their donuts hit the spot! My favorites were: the cronut, cinnamon roll and french cruller. My wife really liked the Thai tea and my son liked his strawberry sprinkle. Like I said, there's really something for everyone here. I will definitely be back.

My smoothie was absolutely delicious, like a jolt of energy! Late Night Date Smoothie | Cute name & right away, the ingredients had me at hello, especially when the fruit Medjool dates were mentioned! I love dates, so yummy! The Late Night Date smoothie includes maca, almond butter, bananas, coconut milk, pecans & cacao nibs! Yum!! I love that it's a thick smoothie as well! This smoothie packs a powerful punch, almost felt like liquid energy & helped with my jet lag almost immediately on my second visit in July! Inside | Loved the reggae music playing on one of my visits!! The surroundings inside includes plants, motivational/positive statements written with colorful chalk on a black chalkboard, as well as healthy snacks along the wall! While I'm wait inside, most people wait outside where there's more space or inside of their cars! Busy Bee | My friend and I were grateful to arrive at a time where there was only one person in front of us, and several people waiting! She enjoyed The Green Monster Drink! However, on my next visit, with major jet lag from traveling throughout Indonesia and South Korea, but craving a smoothie, there was an hour wait! Note | While I know of another popular place where everyone gets smoothies, in my opinion, this smoothie is the best! I've tried both! Also, incredibly flavorful and not too sweet, like the other! Also, glad I brought along my thick, reusable glass straw! Customer Service | Super friendly on both visits, in June and July! On my first visit, woman at the counter, helped me decide on a smoothie, because there were just so many options! I told her to make it in a way that she loves and it was perfect, and I got the same thing on my second visit! Gentleman at the counter on my second visit was super friendly as well! The tall gentleman making the smoothie seems very chill and relaxed! All-around good vibes here! Even people waiting in the line were friendly on both visits! Overall | Yes, please! I'm already craving another flavorful smoothie as we speak, as the smoothies are fueled with goodness! I'm going to make myself try another flavor with a cute name on my next visit! Let's go!

I've been an avid DK's Donuts patron since 2001, and their donuts and goodies never disappoint! From glazed donut holes, to cinnamon rolls, to French crullers, to Canadian cremes, the options are endless and delicious. Even if you're not in the mood for sweets, I haven't encountered a sandwich I didn't love! My personal favorites are the breakfast sandwich, tuna on croissant, and pastrami sub... but no matter what tickles your pickle, you'll definitely quickly find a favorite here. Not to mention, the sandwiches are under $5... who else can beat that? The owners, Mayly, Sean, and their Mom always make a trip to DK's extremely enjoyable and always offer impeccable customer service. If you ever encounter an issue with your order, which is highly unlikely, they always do their best to address the issue on the spot. If you haven't had the honor of personally experiencing the delectable, decadent delights of DK's Donuts & Bakery, you should definitely visit one of their social media sites (where they often post secret words for getting a free treat!) and see what you're missing out on. I assure you you'll be heading out to DK's Donuts & Bakery within minutes!

Where have these cronuts been all my life? ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! What is so sad is that about 6 months ago, I visited DK Donuts to take out a box of donuts for a client meeting just because it was convenient. I never even tried one. At first glance, it's in a small strip plaza with a 7-11. Not enough parking spots. You walk in and it is quite small. They definitely have a system that works though as the line is out the door at any given time. Glass baker cases showcase the yummy treats. Some call them cronuts and some refer to them as O nuts ...whichever is fine...they are scrumptious! I always thought the cronuts (croissant donut) originated in new York but maybe it was Santa Monica. The plain glazed cronuts are thinly layered flaky o shaped yumminess. So light and airy yet denser than a Krispy kreme. I peel the layers off one by one and they melt in my mouth. They have so many flavors and on holidays, they have fun unique flavors like red velvet with oreo. Order and they package and you pay your cash...no credit cards. Cronuts are 5 dollars each and worth every penny! Small seating area with tables to eat there. Don't bother trying any other donuts if you're within range if santa monica. Best donut I've ever had! read more

I recently visited this charming little donut shop and walked away with mixed feelings. First off, the staff were incredibly friendly--welcoming us with warm smiles and helpful recommendations, which truly set a pleasant tone for the visit. Unfortunately, getting to the shop was a different story. The parking situation was a nightmare; finding a spot felt like a game of hide-and-seek, and definitely took away from the overall experience. Now, onto the donuts! The shop has an array of cute, eye-catching options that makes choosing what to indulge in almost a challenge. I decided to try their glazed donut, which was decent but nothing to write home about. However, the blueberry donut was a delightful surprise, bursting with flavor and freshness that made it a standout. The real highlight of my visit was the Cronut. Let me tell you, it was the best I've had in years! The layers were perfectly flaky, and it was filled with a heavenly combination of Nutella and strawberries that created a decadent treat I won't soon forget. If only this gem of a donut spot were closer to my house, I'd be a regular. Despite the parking woes, I can definitely see myself making the trip again for those fantastic donuts! read more

Try their kroughnuts not as good as the New York one you're saying that's almost be better way to Sweet not as flaky also a note don't take your kids to this place. When I arrived there's a 7-Eleven next to them they're playing classical music I was wondering why that's usually like clue not to have people hanging around then when I looked around I could see all this homeless people soon as I stepped out of the car I got hit up for money from two very aggressive panhandlers if I was the owner I would hire a security guard to chase them away I'll never going back. my kids were very scared. Then a guy homeless guy went by yelling you guys don't look like us go back to your country and I have to explain that to my kids then going out I got hit up by another homeless guy asking for money very aggressive not going back to this place the donuts aren't that great overrated place I can tell you to go it's called Trio Donuts very expensive but way more delicious. read more

A great local donut shop for those in Santa Monica/West LA. I've have many a late-night donut run to DK's during college (perks of being open 24/7), and I admire the fact that they're always experimenting with new flavors. It's definitely not "hip" in decor, but I actually think that adds to its charm--it's a simple mom and pop business that found its success in creative breakfast. Cheers to that. Some anecdotes: -Always a hit with the office. Get a box of their assorted specialties and you'll be loved by all. -Cash only. Just come prepared, it's not that big of a deal. -Surprisingly great customer service! I came in to get a box of donuts for a coworker's birthday, and they surprised me with a box of customized "Happy Bday" donuts for free. Just 'cause they had made an extra batch. So awesome and shows that they have heart. read more

DK's really is as good as it gets. They have a shared free parking lot, as well as lots of street parking nearby. DK's is open 24/7 and even on holidays, and while they might only accept cash, they have an ATM inside. The prices are more than reasonable, they have a huge selection of sweet and savory options, loads of hot and cold drinks, and constantly innovate breakfast options. They make croissant-donuts, waffle-donuts, mini-donuts, ones topped with real bacon strips, and basically every cereal topping you would expect. The staff isn't always the friendliest, but their work ethic keeps you from waiting for hours when the line is out the door. I usually grab a chocolate frosted donut and a glazed twist, but this is a place that I take my out of town visitors whenever they come to LA, whether they're healthy or not. read more

HANDS DOWN. BEST DONUT SHOP IN THE WORLD!! I work in Santa Monica and this is literally the talk of the town. My regular order is their killer bacon egg and cheese bagel with extra bacon. The bacon is so crispy and their bagels are toasted to perfection, it's a great start to your day at $3. I am also a fan of their strawberry smoothie or their roast beef croissant for lunch. Their strawberry smoothie is thick and refreshing on a nice hot day, you can even add boba or whipped cream! They use real fruit and it's absolutely amazing!!! I love the staff cause they know their regulars and always go out of their way to brighten their customer's day!! Best of all, they're open 24 hours for your breakfast, lunch, dinner, and post-drunk munchie needs. read more

My friend introduced me to this place and my first impression was that it was just like any other generic Donut place around. I'm not necessarily a big fan of donuts, I find them to be overly sweetened pastries. But this place does make a great donut. But what I go there for is the breakfast bagels, they are very well priced, anywhere from high $2.50-4 if my mind is right, and they are delicious. They also have a wide array of coffees to choose from for quite cheap (refills welcome). If you are a donut fan like my friend, you will love this place, and if you love a nice hearty egg breakfast bagel or croissant, then also come here, they are fantastic. OH btw, the croissants are incredible, flaky, soft and buttery. read more

The donuts presentation are like a museum in this place, but unfortunately, the environment around DK's is going downhill fast. There's an ever growing homeless community area the area and it spills into the business. I was there early (6am ish) and a guy was violently screaming and smashing things near the entrance of the donut shop. I had to wait a few minutes for him to pass to enter. After I entered my only concern was where the guy went. I know it's not DK's fault, but this made my experience not the best. When I left the shop, there were more homeless people gathering and I was happy to be leaving. Good shop, but conditions are tricky. It's open 24 hours but I would never visit after midnight. read more

I felt inclined to sign up for a Yelp account and write a review because my experience here was so terrible. I've heard good things about this place all over social media, and decided to stop in for a quick dessert on the go. Their customer service definitely needs some serious, serious work. The woman who works here was more concerned about taking selfies than taking care of her customers. I got an ube donut (which tasted like fried oil with purple food coloring) and a Bavarian cream donut (which tasted like fried oil with expired whipped cream. Seriously, the cream was sour). I don't understand the hype. I've had better donuts from the airport, and better service there too. read more

DK's truly lives up to its reputation as the ultimate destination for donut lovers on the west side. Boasting an extensive variety of donuts, cronuts, and more, this 24-hour establishment ensures that each treat is freshly made throughout the day, guaranteeing a delectable experience no matter the time of day. Indulge in the irresistible cinnamon crunch dusted cinnamon roll donut or the nostalgic strawberry shortcake donut, reminiscent of the beloved ice cream bars. With so many tempting options to choose from, making a decision may prove to be a challenge - but rest assured, any donut you select will surely be worth the visit. read more

A fav late night munchies spot. Be aware of the homeless community as the area is hit pretty hard with mental health issues. The donuts are phenomenal and I have tried most of them. You'll be better off going in an off peak time, as you'll want to browse the selection with no pressure of someone standing behind you. I say order a dozen and ask them to "surprise you". You will be the star in your office for the day. Prices are fair and the service is good. The owner is really friendly and she's there like almost everyday!!

I like their donuts and them being 24/7. However, a $10 minimum is rude and ridiculous. They are losing a TON of business, as I have decided not to go back, because I just want one donut and don't want to pay $10 every time I want one donut to cure my sweet tooth. Credit Card fees are 3-5% and are set as a percentage, not a set dollar amount... which makes the "minimum" a scam. I don't think they realize how many customers that they are losing either... and once you lose a customer by scaring them off... we never know if the policy changes bc we never go back. read more

DKs makes fresh donuts at least three times a day so you won't find fresher donuts anywhere. They have a nice family owned feel to their donut shop. I love their selection of coffee always fresh all day. Their donuts are incredible and reasonable with a very large selection. Their "onuts" are good but a tad expensive so nice for an occasional treat if you really want extravagant sweets. They only take cash and their parking lot is small but I can always find a space as this is my go to coffee stop... Best donuts on the west side! read more

Ever since moving to California I have been coming here regularly for my donut fix. Their glazed O-nut (cronut) is amazing and not to be missed. The combination of a croissant and glazed donut that just melts in your mouth is life changing. In my many visits I have only ever tried the O-nut, maple bar, and a chocolate bar. There are a lot of donut variations that I will probably never try just because the O-nut is so good. This place is cash only so make sure you bring some money; otherwise they have a ATM in their store. read more

One is open 24/7. The other is if they make and sell crullers. (The French donut). This place does both. And for certain it is very very good. Also the prices are very respectable. Over the past 7 years prices have gone from $1 to now $3+ or some places have not just raised their prices but started making smaller donuts. This spot has big donuts and they are fire. Def worth the extra few minutes of a drive if need be.

I love this place with all of me. The staff is super friendly and helpful. The main attraction for…read moreme is the Pastrami special they offer. This comes with very tasty egg, cheese and pastrami served on the bagel of your choice. I generally get a sesame bagel and it comes toasted to perfection every time. Coffee of choice is their Hazelnut roast, add two sugars and a splash of almond milk and you are wired. They sell their beans! I will be buying a bag next time I am in as it's been growing on me and I'm someone who had previously enjoyed overpriced sugared/syrup coffee's. There is a small seating area indoors and outdoors. Parking is super easy behind the establishment. There are a handful of pastries and goodies to choose from. All made with love. They offer a rewards system, I recommend signing up as I promise you will be back.

The donuts ended up being good, but not great. I would definitely like to revisit and give some other flavours a try. The donuts were a little dry.

My friends and I stopped by after getting some smoothies across the street and were pleasantly surprised. They just have street parking so it's a little difficult but check in the neighborhoods for a higher chance of finding a spot Their cookies are the perfect level of sweetness, and have my preferred texture which is chewy overall with a slight crispy edge. My favorite is the banana pudding
