Best donuts in Rochester. We waited in line today and it was so worth it. All I wanted for Mother's Day was one of their donuts. It was worth the wait. read more

This is a cool little shop. It's very old school and reminds me of something from the 1950s. Inside is pretty small near the counter where you order the food. They have both pizzas and donuts so there's a lot to take in. There's a bunch of choices and they vary from many of the pics so try to be prepared. My favorite were the jelly donuts (both strawberry and red raspberry) and the apple fritter! The white cream donuts barely had any cream inside and didn't have much flavor. All of the glazed donuts tasted the same but they were good. read more

I HIGHLY recommend ordering donuts from here for your next celebration. But beware... they are so good you will end up eating way more than you wanted LOL. But seriously, I ordered 2 dozen donuts for my 2 and 4 year olds birthday party and everyone LOVED them. I placed the order in advance over the phone and told them to pick out the photos for the donuts and they did a great job! I love how they matched the sprinkles perfectly too (my request). The Spider-Man donuts had chocolate filling and the Hulk had vanilla. I also got some cannoli donuts. I shed a little tear eating them they were so good (okay I'll stop but seriously I love these donuts). 10/10 Will for sure be ordering more again. read more

Donuts Delite - Spider-Man and Hulk birthday donuts! SO GOOD - Donuts Near Me - Rochester, New York

I went in early for a dozen and a half donuts and they were a hit. My transaction was quick and the man helping me was very nice. He gave me a good variety of donuts. There's definitely something for everyone here from your classic donut to filled donuts. I particularly found the donut with the pope on it cute. The donuts themselves are super fluffy with the perfect amount of glaze or filling. They're not too dry, but still dippable. read more

They are definitely doing something right because there was a line out the door and everyone was walking out with multiple boxes! They do not only have donuts but pizza as well and bonus for an early Sunday morning, there was breakfast pizza. I just grabbed a few doughnuts to go and for the people that I bought them for, they were good but nothing made them stand out from other places we have in Buffalo. I tried the apple fritter though and I thought it was very good and really fresh! 3 doughnuts and an apple fritter for $11 was a little steep though. We asked if there was a savings for buying in the 1/2 dozen or dozen but were basically told no, you just pay based on the type of doughnut and no prices listed so you just get surprised on what your final bill is after you pick your doughnuts. read more

I drove to the Culver location from Chili, I walked in and I had three customers ahead of me, and that cleared out but the folks behind the counter didn't acknowledge my presence, it took about another 4 to 5 minutes before I was acknowledged, so I would call that poor service. read more

I have been hearing about this place since I moved to Rochester. Finally, my BF and I decided to stop by. We ordered the cannoli donut, Old fashioned and 2 breakfast bakery items. The cannoli donuts were way too sweet and didn't taste fresh. Cannoli filling is not supposed to be that sweet. I was hoping it was going to be real cannoli filling. The old fashioned would have been perfect if it was not glazed. I think the employee agreed with me because when I ordered it, she warned me it was glazed and asked me if I still wanted it. I should have picked up on that little hint....so my bad on that. The other items we took home and microwaved them. They were like a small round pastry with sham and Swiss with hollandaise sauce baked into them. Like a cross between a croissant and a pizza. It was tasty. I would give them another try, but I did expect fresh donuts. I did like the environment, very old school. The people that worked there were very nice. read more

We got there a little earlier than normal and we were treated by appearance of a breakfast club They bought a cup of coffee The three of them took up five booths They yell at each other because they hard of hearing I have seen have before They drive away paying customers It's our food - it's our favorite place for breakfast The service was excellent as usual We left a good tip - there was nothing she could do about the breakfast club read more

It's really nice to have a place like this between North Winton Village and Empire Blvd area. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Parking and tables are available for dining in. This place offers a nice collection of donuts but they're not limited to that. They also make pizza, wings, calzones etc If you find yourself around the area then it's absolutely worth stopping by. read more

I be come out from Syracuse lots of times this is my second time here. They pizza doesn't have a traditional crust. Which is ok it's really tasty. Buffalo chicken the first time Buffalo chicken Charlie same concept drizzled with honey. It was delicious! The slices are huge! I did buy some doughnuts too but still waiting to try them. I love the nostalgic look of the restaurant it was pretty cool. Service was fast and friendly! Can't wait to go back! read more

The man who waited on me today for my apple fritters was truly a "delite"!! His attitude, service, etc. really made my day. I was feeling a little down after going to the doctor. I wish I got his name to mention him personally. Rare to find someone anymore who is that nice. Thank you!! read more

Great donuts! And I used to bake them at one of the best donut shops in town. These guys rock!

I have been a huge Donut Delite supporter since they opened within Salvatore's. I have ordered many trays as well as brought the family for dine-in service. My last two orders had issues. My last delivery order wasn't delivered at 8am like requested. I had to call to remind them it was needed. Donuts arrived at 11am. After that, I decided to do pick-up orders, but then we had missing specialty donuts. At that point, we decided diners-in is the only way to go. My visit last weekend was extremely disappointing. The restaurant was very dirty at 9am. Food under the table, sticky tables, wet menu (there was a child slopping dirty water on them which I assume he was tasked with "cleaning" them), and floating food particles in my glass of ice. We needed to call the server over a few times to request service. Eventually someone who I assume was a manager came over to clear the table and then eventually to give us our bill. It's also disappointing that classics like flying saucers and the Sesame Street donuts are no longer available. These are classics that my college kids always look forward to having due to the nostalgia factor. While I am keeping a couple of stars just for the quality of the donuts, I'm not sure when we will be returning. If the front of the house is filthy, I can't imagine the kitchen. read more

I like to do comparisons so I went to two donut shops on the way home. This was the last one on my route. Boy was it busy. Very slow moving combo pizza and donuts. I ordered two apple fritters and two fried cakes. $10. and change ... oh boy. The fritters were huge . There is not much to say about the ambiance but my server was very sweet. read more

The donuts are pretty good, better than average. I've never tried the pizza but other people have raved about it . The best donut I tried was the jelly stick. read more

First, food was very good. My over easy eggs were cooked just right! Service was very slow once we put in our order -- over 30 mins for an omelet and 3 eggs. We were told there was a fire emergency in the kitchen that held up our order. Meanwhile, people who'd come in long after us were getting their food. I can understand an emergency situation but updates would have been good to hear and even if our order had been burned up on the cooktop, our replacements should have come out that much faster. No word on anything for that 30+ mins. They did make up for it: the manager and our server apologized, knocked 15% off our check and gave us 3 donuts of our choice. In the future, I'd suggest periodic updates on the situation. read more

Delicious kinds of donuts and lots of different varieties to choose from. Clean establishment

The donuts were delicious! So many options when I got there early in the morning. My favorite were the apple fritter, sour cream, and chocolate with chocolate frosting. Yum!! read more

I love their donuts but I'm disappointed with the customer service. Don't order donuts and pizza online and pay for it ahead and expect it to be ready. I'm VERY disappointed with my experience today. I don't Yelp to do reviews like this, but here I am. Yesterday I ordered breakfast pizza for my class and let them each pick out their own donut and order it. When I put the order in, I immediately received a text that said text "here" when you arrive and we'll bring it out to your car. I did that and no one came. So then I went in the store and waited in line for a few minutes. I decided I'd just walk up and politely ask if I'm supposed to wait in line when I ordered online and already paid. I'm very self-conscious of these things because my name is Karen! The blond woman behind the counter said in a snippy way, "you have to wait in line just like everyone else". I couldn't believe how rude she was! There was a better way to say it! I then got back in line even though I had already ordered and paid. In my opinion, there should be a place where you can walk up and grab and go. Otherwise, what the sense in it? So, I got back in line and waited. I gave my name and the girl was gone for a while. I was now late because I had to wait in line and my order wasn't even ready!!!!! They started looking at my order and putting each donut in the box and were searching for my pizza. Again, what is the sense in ordering ahead?!?! I was then late for work and my day started off very crappy. I asked why they have the text messaging service if no one brings it to you?! No real answer. I'm very annoyed and unhappy. AND THEY MADE MY PIZZA WRONG or gave me the wrong one!!!! read more

Visited at 7am. Put orders in at 7:05. Even though we were the only diners, food took 30 minutes to arrive and was cold when it did. Ordered omelet, pancake, corned beef hash, and breakfast pizza. Food quality was average at best. Only redeeming features were the decent coffee, outdoor seating and well kept bathrooms. 2 stars. Won't be back read more

Food is good sometimes. Service is good sometimes. View is ok. If your coming to pickup pizza or donuts that is the greatest. Amazing donuts and pizza. I would not sit in for breakfast. If you want a great breakfast go to the Bayfront Restaurant. read more

Me: "I live right near Empire and Culver...you know...near Donuts Delite" Literally everyone: "OH how do you not go there EVERY. DAY?!" Let me just tell you: the struggle to not go daily is real. I love Donuts Delite for so many reasons... - The people: the staff at Donuts Delite are such wonderful human beings. My boyfriend and I took a walk over in pursuit of breakfast during one of our recent snow storms, and the whole staff was all smiles - despite having to work in such awful weather conditions. They are quick to make recommendations and really care about the businesses and the people who patronize it. - Cannoli Donut: I do not feel the need to expand upon this bullet point... - Breakfast pizza: SO good in a pinch and when we're hosting brunch! Reasonably priced and absolutely delish. I know this is *technically* Salvatores pizza but STILL - the fact that it is offered and close by is wonderful. - The feeling: walking into Donuts Delite feels like a walk back in time. I love how they have held onto the roots of where the business came from and proudly display their history for patrons to see. Take a drive up Culver and treat yourself to a cannoli donut! read more

Today we decided as a public service to rank all the chocolate cream donuts so you wouldn't have to (you're welcome). Here's the results: Dad's Take: Death by chocolate: I love Donuts Delite chocolate cream, so this one takes the cake for me (bad dad pun fully intended) Whoopee Pie: great texture, good flavor Oreo: Better tasting filling, liked the crushed Oreos for texture Peanut Butter: Tons of cream, but not enough peanut flavor to it Teenager's Take: Peanut butter: Because peanut butter and chocolate are delicious Death by chocolate: didn't have as much depth of flavor and lacked variety, but it's still chocolate (she watches too much Chopped) Whoopee Pie: Perfect ratio, nice light cream, but not as chocolatey as she'd have liked Oreo: Good, but too much cream and not enough donut and the cream was heavy Summary: None of them will disappoint, but for us, the Death By Chocolate is the safe bet read more

So I'd always liked this place as their breakfasts were super. You don't get the little potato wedges everywhere, and they fry them crunchy... so yum. I also don't really like to write negatives, but I really hope the owner sees this and thinks about this... The service here since they opened the new ridge location has gone downhill... It seemed that all the seasoned staff went to the new location and we stopped frequenting as it was easily taking 45 minutes for two breakfast orders. This past weekend I really wanted those potatoes and their omelettes were always excellent, so we said we would give it another go... It was a new low. They had a full four people running around the dining room (which is small), and yet none of them were properly trained for it. It was close to ten minutes before our waitress came for our drink order. At this point we were ready to order but she wasn't; she didn't have a notepad and wasn't ready for the order. When she came with the drinks, she was still not ready... So it was a good 24 minutes after being seated before we got our order in. We watched two other tables leave during this time, and I should have taken it as a sign. But I really wanted those potatoes. Now I will say that the food came pretty quickly, but I know why... first I noticed no potatoes. I asked where were the potatoes and was told they were out of home fries. Would have been good to mention while ordering; I asked her for an order of tots which she did get quickly. Second, all the fillings weren't properly chopped for breakfast... maybe for a pizza, but onions and peppers at 1cm square are too big and the tomatoes were whole slices. Third, with the water from the tomatoes the eggs were snotty and not completely cooked all the way through to the point that the omelette was leaking. Finally, the cheese was only put on half the omelette, and to add insult to injury... it was luke warm at best. I don't blame the girls entirely because while they should recognize some things, the lack of proper structure and training is evident. I will also point out that there was one staff member that looked overworked and frazzled... so I assume she was clearing up the messes from the girls haphazard attempts. I feel bad for her and hope she can get some help. So... in closing, we're not coming here again unless something massively changes. read more

I remember this place 50 years ago! When I was a kid I use to work on a milk truck and we stopped here for our morning break. Great memories. And this legendary place still lives on. I stopped by for a coffee and snack the other day while doing some city photo work. I must admit the prices have changed since I was first went here, but times have changed, going back 50 years. LOL. It's a clean, well organized coffee shop, (and now pizza shop also) with a variety of donuts, pastry,and pizza now. Good coffee!!! The employees are great people also. I enjoyed talking to them about the history of the place. This place is monumental when it comes to old Rochester, and the way things use to be in. read more

I've always loved donuts delight so I was happy when Salvatore's brought them back. Besides the wit you get when you first call, the staff are very friendly and their variety is really good. I love seeing their specialties donuts. Just a notice to call ahead on a Sunday morning after 11 because everyone just got out of church and it can be quite busy. I would definitely say order ahead of you can read more

Went here for the first time in May! We ordered a half dozen donuts and a special one to celebrate my graduation. They were so good! Honestly the best donuts I ever had. The class of 2020 and lemon donuts were amazing! In the future, we will always come here for our donuts!!!! read more

Wow, massive disappointment! Came in all the way from Buffalo home of Plaua's donuts and was expecting similar quality. Didn't get it at all! There where so many donuts listed on the website. Fun flavors like maple bacon, red velvet and pink swirl. The only donuts at the place where boring at typical. Got a few anyway to taste. Pb and J donut was very cute on top however, the raspberry on the inside was overpowering and tart. The donut also left hands a sticky mess. 1/5. The Boston cream had good dough and frosting but the cream tasted of peppermint pepto. 100% gross. 2/5. Overall so disappointed. People of Rochester take yourself to Buffalo and get a real donut. read more

Donuts Delite is both better than before it closed in 2005 by the original owners...and at the same time not as good today. I grew up in East Irondequoit. Even went to school across the street at St. Ambrose. So I've had my fill of the old skool donuts delite before it closed and reopened. Right away I will tell you they don't have nearly as much donuts as they used to back in the day. That is probably because it's no longer just a donut shop. It's now also a Salvatore's pizzeria. Which is both good and bad depending on how you look at it. It's good because the area has a decent pizza place now. But bad because the donuts kind of take a back seat to the pizza. Don't get me wrong. The donuts are still pretty amazing..but I feel they are missing something. I can't even quite put my tongue on what. What to get? The canolli donut...it's the best donut they make...actually I think it's the best donut in the world. I dont remember the original DDelite having this donut. It's pricier than their regular donuts at 2.00 each. But worth it. read more

If I didn't already live right near Donuts Delite, I would be willing to purchase a new house so that I did. These are 100% the best donuts in Rochester, y'all. They taste homemade, they are stuffed to perfection, and to top it all off they're beautiful. I love the staff here, I have literally never had a bad experience. It has that lovely, family-owned, know-everyone-who-walks-in feel. Not to mention that the prices are actually great for such high quality donuts! Similar specialty donuts around here are 2x the price. Love this store, love the story, and I love the donuts!! read more

Pretty Fast services. Friendliness...varies. Excellent donuts although the glazes were Very Sweet. Regular donuts are priced good. Specialty donuts, prices are varied. But one thing here, I couldn't find the prices of the donuts anywhere, both in the store and online? It would be nice if I had got to know the prices a head of selecting and buying the donuts. Ridge Donuts shows their prices on the boards right above the donuts. I don't need to keep asking the cashiers how much of these or those donuts. Very nice dining area. Accept credit card. Big parking lot. Thanks for updating info of the donut shop on Yelp and website during the pandemic time. read more

Must try if you've got a sweet tooth in Rochester. It's apart of the history with their famous glowing facade and delicious donuts. They have a good variety from simply glazed to their Tiger King Apple Fritter Special (as seen in photos). This place does not lack creativity! But even without that, the donuts are simply delicious. Cooked perfectly, nice and fluffy, with the perfect amount of icing! read more

Wow. Glad friends in Brighton told us about this place. Had to stop on the way back to Buffalo (even though it was the other direction). Loved the dough of the banana cream donut ( and the cream too -- only thing that would have made it better would have been chopped up banana in the cream). Pleasantly surprised by the savory selections at the counter. Loved the 2 breakfast rollup selections offered. Both were super delish. Oreo donut and cream filled were great too! (always happy when a raised donut tastes yummy and the dough isn't gummy and sweet.) Will be stopping again for sure! read more

You can't miss the pink exterior! Can't beat the cannoli donuts (powered sugar or chocolate frosting) call ahead to make sure they are available. There were a few times that they sold out! I've never tried the pizza so I can't comment on it. Ample parking lot. Clean bathroom. read more
