    Vegan waffle
    Cassandra B.

    Donut Villa Diner is one of my favorite breakfast spots! They have an extensive vegan menu AND vegan donuts. During autumn they even have vegan apple cider donuts. We're regulars at the diner so the staff usually recognize us. The servers are super sweet and very attentive. On weekends it's usually extremely busy, so get there before 10am or be prepared to wait. The diner feels like it's right out of the 1950s. The booths are bright red and they have a long countertop where folks can eat at.

    Pancakes and eggs

    Found this little spot, walked in and seen it was full of people.. always a good sign. The vibe was chill, filled with families and older folks. The menu had all the diner staples but also had a large diverse vegan menu. I am not vegan but I like having options. I wanted my breakfast packed to go, and I was planning to sit at the chairs outside but I was told that is for dining in as well, that sucked a little bit lol. The pancakes were soft, dense and tasty, although there was no buttery crispy edges, the eggs were good too. I'd come here again if was in this area.

    Came here on a Saturday for brunch and the place was pretty busy, but we had no problem getting a booth for 3. The place gave pretty strong diner vibes - overall, not a bad ambiance for breakfast. I've been to other Donut Villas and the menu is pretty similar across the locations. We ended sharing a decent amount of food between us, but ordering your own entree is also a strong option. The pancakes were delicious - can't recommend them enough. The sandwich was all right, a bit small in my opinion but the fries were solid. The breakfast was also yummy, I thought the value was okay for its price. Overall, Donut Villa Malden is a good spot for brunch in the area. There's also an HMart opening soon in the same plaza so I'm sure I'll be coming back in the near future!

    Stopped on our way home from Boston as we didn't want to eat right in the city. Interesting diner vibe. Service was okay. Please don't call yourself a donut place and serve prettily presented but very stale donuts. DD is better and that's saying a LOT. Omelette and breakfast sandwich eggs were overdone, way too browned. Homefries were the saving grace and 10/10. Breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. This one was disappointing.

    Last senior breakfast at Malden Catholic.  Thank you Donut Villa for the great donuts!!!

    Great service. Best donuts!! Got to go early or they will run out fast. Perfect omelets all the time.

    I'm bummed to have to update my previous 5-star review, but I've had more disappointing experiences than good here now. This place gets super busy, and the system they have for getting a table is downright awful. You literally have to stand in line until a table is ready. This line can be so long that it extends out both sets of doors, almost blocking the entrance/exit, which has to be a fire hazard. Then, the servers get annoyed because you are in their way while they're trying to tend to the tables outside. It's astounding to me that they haven't adopted a better way to accommodate customers waiting for a table. I was excited to take family here while they were visiting from out of state, and we had to completely abandon our plans to eat here because of the way we were treated just while waiting for a table. And I honestly just don't think I'll try again, or even recommend this place as long as they keep it this way. Super disappointing.

    A very nice diner perfect for breakfast or lunch. I came here visiting from Connecticut for a weekend. I ordered an omlette and my wife got a turkey club. We both enjoyed our food. The booths were nice and spacious. Bar seating was available like most diners. The diner also made their own donuts, which were excelltent. Staff was friendly The only thing that I noticed were that the menus could use replacement. They are faded in some areas. This is such a minor point that it doesn't warrant a loss of any points. If you are in the Malden area, check out Donut Villa Diner. It's worth it.

    I saw Donut Villa Diner on a Chronicle special and had to try it! They offer healthy options, and there is plenty to splurge on here too (amazing donuts)! The staff is super friendly. Not a surprise that this place is so popular!

    parking is street…read more I frequented this place a few times now. The quality is always consistent. I always stop by to pick up a few things when I'm in the area. The cakes are always moist. All the carb items both salty and sweet have always been good. on the last trip, I didn't get the egg tart as they looked a bit burnt. I haven't tried their meats yet, but will eventually get around to it.

    They have good soy sauce chicken and barbecue duck here. If you live close to Malden, this is the…read morebest that you're going to get unless you want to go to Chinatown in Boston. I will generally ask them to not chop up the meat for me. It's convenient and they do it very quickly, but my boyfriend is not a fan of the shards of bone co-mingling with the meat. I will warn you that cutting it up at home will result in a HUGE mess because these birds are fatty, but it's worth it to me to carefully debone the meat. There's a bit of a language barrier but that doesn't stop me from asking for extra ginger scallion oil. Ask for it. They will give you one sauce. It's really good and we're not Chinese and they don't understand that we can't get enough of it. The soy sauce is also good. There is a bakery here but I've only ever gotten the meat. It is a typical Chinese cafe. Basic. No frills. Nothing fancy. The food just kind of speaks for itself. This is a To-go place. I think every time I've been here, there's been little or no wait.
