It's funny because I have lived across the street form this particular donut place for almost 2 years. I don't go out of my way to get the sweet circular treats, nor do I crave 'em often. So it's rare I eat donuts in the first place, let alone write a review about 'em. After reading reviews and seeing the almost 5-star rating of Donuts USA I felt it was in my best interest to check the place out. The little mom'n'pop shop is small but quaint. The store features three separate booths to sit down at, though you'll most likely grab-n-go, so it's not a big deal. Donuts USA, when compared to other places, doesn't have the biggest selection of donuts--but then again I haven't been on a weekend yet, which is probably when they bring out the big guns. That's not to say you'll be dissatisfied; on the contrary the old-fashioned blueberry glazed donut I had for a mere 80 cents was one of the best donuts I've ever had. It was fresh, and had the most perfect texture. You know, the one where it's slightly crispy on the outside, but has that buttery cake-like dough inside. I'm almost fearful now that I live so close, I can practically have these delectable morsels whenever I choose. For 80 cents a donut this place rocks. Much better than going to some of those other places. read more

What more can you ask for from a local donut shop...great assortment and old fashioned (only donut I eat), smoothie menu, cream puffs and regular/iced coffee. Staff is super friendly and if you order healthily and treat with respect, you often walk away with a lot of freebies. Iced coffee was much better than Starbucks or Grind. read more

sweets and creamy drinks what more can u ask for when on a sugar crave ! I pick these donuts up to feed my wild children on the streets . Keep them happy and fed give them respect and your car and home won't be broken into . People are like bears looking for love and good food not scraps . Respect thy neighbor and honor will be yours ! read more

My husband was craving for a donut, so on our way back from the beach, we stopped by. The selection is better than you might think, they even have delicious cronuts! Everything we got was good (not good for our figures, but hey, we satisfied that craving!). Decent selection, prices, service. read more

USA! USA! USA! I wish I never came here, since I have to stop by every time I'm in the area now! It looks like a beat up old mom and pop donut shop, but it truly is something better than just the donuts inside. It's the people, it's the flavors, and it's the $0.10 donut holes! I went middle of the day, not expecting anything good. It's a donut shop in the afternoon, what could possibly be left. And there they were: cronuts. Now I hate every food trend that comes along, and the idea of cronuts bothered me more than the hipsters raving about them. But up close, what else could I say? I had to have one... or two... I took a simple glaze, but really wanted a strawberry cream. $3, and totally worth it. When I asked about the donut holes, she said ten cents. So I figured why not try one. She gave it to me for free! Awesome! Great people, and great donut shop, with a wide variety to choose. Fresh tasting, even mid day. Can't ask for more. read more

Came in the late afternoon and they only had 4 cronuts of 3 different varieties: glazed, sugar cinnamon and maple bacon. I chose the former two plus a maple and chocolate long john. Nothing spectacular. The cronut itself was moist, but the dryness of the sugar-cinnamon combination could have been offset by a more fluid sweeter, like a creme or light custard. I've had better at Paris Baguette. Parking was easy when I came, but I can see it being a problem during morning rush hour. There are about 4-6 spots for several businesses in this strip mall. The lady was friendly, but English isn't her first language so communication can be challenging. From what I understood, the shop "orders" the cronuts by 6pm for delivery the next day. She suggested coming in the morning (they open at 4am) when the variety is at its greatest. Note for the handicapped: the sidewalk is under construction, so access will be difficult (I was in a wheelchair for 3 months so I understand your pain.) read more

The lady working was the nicest person ever! The donuts are so good and $1, and she surprised us with an extra donut. You have to go here if you're in the area read more

Rude service??? The only reason I go back to this place time and time again is the GREAT service. Well, and the food. I was in the mood for a donut, passed the place, and walked in. Was greeted quickly and warmly by the two proprietors. Got a chocolate donut and a bacon and cheese croissant sandwich. Only after they gave me my order did I see the CASH ONLY sign. Oops! I only had $2.75 on me and my order was $3.75. I apologized and asked where the nearest bank was. They told me not to be ridiculous, $2.75 was fine, and not to worry about it at all. They had a repeat customer from that moment. After going about 3 times they were already making my croissant sandwich before I even ordered it. This place is the real deal when it comes to customer service. They are so sweet! Oh, the donuts are great, but the chocolate isn't the best. Glazed... brownies... couple other things are awesome. read more

No overpriced breakfast sandwiches here! I get a bacon, egg and cheese and a donut and it comes out to like $4.40. Amazing. The bagels and croissants are good and the donuts are too. Great spot. Oh plus they have WIFI read more

Donuts USA - Bacon egg and cheese on a bagel and some munchkins. Love that they give some jalapeño with the sandwich - Donuts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A tradition for me during my visits home is to swing by here and pick up a dozen donuts. I grew up 5 minutes away from them and on special occasions we would have a dozen donuts. The service here is great, (very friendly too), and the donuts are reasonably priced. I don't have any particular favorite donut, as I am usually pretty overwhelmed with the selection of donuts that they have here. Donuts here are always tasty and fresh. read more

Thus is the perfect place to get a good donut. They make traditional donuts and they are amazing. These are simple donuts without weird flavor combos or surprises here, but I actually kind of appreciated that it seems they just focus on offering a great product with great service. I would make it a daily morning stop . read more

I grew up with the place, so I'll try and make this as unbiased as possible. The donuts here are great. I don't speak for the new age stuff like cronuts, but the regular stuff like Maple Bars, Glazed Twists and Crullers. Prices are reasonable, service is great. Don't go looking for a conversation with the staff, as there isn't time for that, there are people standing behind you waiting! Be ready with cash in hand, your mind decided on what you want and they will get you in and out quickly. read more

I love this place! Donuts are soft and fresh when you bite into them. The donut holes aren't too overly sweet which I really like, and they don't leave a weird film in your mouth like some places. The mini chocolate croissants are delicious too! Great place to stop in, definitely coming back when I'm in the area! read more

I only recently started eating donuts again after years of not evening thinking about them. Now I've tried a few places in the area and whilst the standard glazed donuts are all about the same, what makes this place stand out is the glazed Cronut. It's like a little piece of heaven in your mouth while you bite through the different layers. This is is twice a month treat and make it part of my weekend plans to get one. read more

The crispy 'oldfashioned' donuts are my favorites, but the French Crullers are not far behind. The chocolate icing is okay, not great, but the plain oldfashioneds are great without glazing or chocolate. They have been making donuts for over twenty years there, and they have been consistent time and again. Parking is spotty, not very many spaces, and they share the strip mall with a Mexican grocery and Campos burritos. I can't stop at just one donut, gotta have two or three. read more

These are the best Donuts, in the USA they taste like the donuts I use to get when I was a child, they are so good I live in West Hollywood but I don't mind driving over on Venice to get the greatest donuts on the planet. If you have a taste for delicious donuts, get in your car turn on your music and go to Donuts USA. They are truly the best. AMG read more

This is a pretty good donut spot. Always fresh. They have pretty decent croissants as well. Was intriduced to this place from a craft service person so they have probably done their homework. Not worth a big drive or anything but worth a stop if your nearby. read more

Bought out their donut holes for Hanukah. Perfect pairing at my latke party. Very fresh and affordable! Yummmm

I loooove their Crossaints and donuts it's so yummy and well done. I'm from Brazil but always when i come to LA i must go to Donuts Usa to buy their food, 'cause it's absolutely perfect! The owners attendance is also amazing! read more

Donuts USA - delicious! - Donuts Near Me - Los Angeles, California

They gave me three free mini donut holes when I only bought one donut (for a dollar!) Sweet :)

I'm sorry but I just gotta say Ive never enountered rude service at this place. They have given me free donut holes for my daughter a couple times and Im always greeted with a smile. This place rocks. read more

I've been here many times because it's right down my block and on the way to work. The asian woman behind the counter can be a little gruff in the mornings on first impression because she barks, but she's really a sweetheart. My advice, skip the coffee and buy extra of the sugar covered donuts. The coffee's not great, but the donuts are to die for and really cheap. Slightly crispy on the outside, melt in your mouth good. The french crullers are great too. Fluffy and eggy, kind of dense like custard. Good stuff! read more

They have FRESH donuts!!! The selection is average but who wants a selection of stale ones anyway??? This place is reasonably priced. Also, parking can be tricky... Not sure of their hours but they're NOT open late. read more

Love the Doughnuts here and for a good price. Especially the maple bar. They are really fresh.

This donut shop is the best that I have been to in all of my 37 Years! The man that is the owner is one of the nicest business owners I have ever met. I've lived in L.A. For a year now and have only written 2 other reviews so far, but after a few successful trips here and every time experiencing the BEST glazed donut twist that I have ever had in my lifetime across the many states that I have traveled, I made it a point to write this review immediately upon leaving. It should be noted that I am a person mindful of what I eat and my calories, but when I splurge I make it a point to go here and have a glazed twist donut. It's a MUST TRY and I promise You Will NOT be disappointed! This man has been in business for 24 years and I can see why! Two thumbs way up for Donuts USA on Venice Blvd. read more

This place fulfilled my cronut curiosity. Never had one before. A must try - maple glazed bacon and glazed cronut. Yummy. Worth sharing with another person. Only downside - so pricey for one and cash only. read more

Yum! One of my clients asked me to bring donuts (instead of bagels) so I stopped here to pickup one of those lovely pink boxes full of delicious treats. I can't remember the last time I bought donuts. My clients were like, "WHERE did you get these?" haha! My favorite is the sugar twists - super light and soft. the traditional donuts were tasty too! Quality, good prices and tasty! Definitely worth a stop for DONUTS! read more

Best donuts around. Super friendly family owed store. Parking sucks.

We got ham and cheese croissants all the time, and the ones here are the best we've had. The donuts were pretty good. The donut holes were good. Very nice people, very helpful and friendly. read more

Authentic, old fashion donut shop. Stopped in before they closed and donuts were fresh. Tried a chocolate sprinkle, maple and vanilla with milk which did not disappoint. The staff is friendly and a great gem of a place. They've been in business over 30 years. read more

Great donuts. Quick, friendly service. They don't have anything fancy, but they do all your favorites just right. From the frosted cake with sprinkles, to the old fashioned (chocolate, glazed, or blueberry-glazed), to the standard glazed donut, everything is top-notch. Always fresh. This has been my donut shop of choice for years. Give it a try. read more

They make a decent croissant-doughnut and the prices of them are better than other shops. My fave it there maple bacon one. They seem to make that one better than DK in SM. Heat it up a little and YUM. read more

I'm a little embarrassed to how much we come here, definitely have become regulars. It's a no frills type of shop but their regular glazed cronut is definitely way better than DK donuts. But that's how I usually judge a place, see how they can do the simple things right. So definitely worth the regular glazed cronut, but I also love their regular donuts. Cash only but I think if you meet a $3 minimum they accept debit. Come early because towards the end they run out quick! read more

Been coming here since I moved here in 1992. They start their day very early and are always busy. Service is good and they know their regular customers. May be too busy for them to always greet with a big smile but wouldn't it be tough if you were serving people since 5 AM? They are down my street and live locally as well so there is a very neighborly feel for me. My favorites are cake donut with orange icing (it even has a little orange peel in it), the chocolate old fashioned and the apple fritters. Their breakfast sandwiches are very good and not greasy. I like their traditional cappuccino, but their coffee is weaker than what Im used to (ie - by Starbucks standards).. Their parking lot is a mess because it is so small, but I tell you the doughnuts are worth it. read more

It seemed like a really small shop from the outside. I was pleasantly surprised when I walk in at the selection. I have had a lot of donuts in my life but this place ranks among the best I have had in LA. Great prices great donuts always a winner. read more

My favorite donut shop since I was a small child. Still just as good as it was 25 years ago. I just wish they'd bring back the cherry croissants. read more

I've been coming here for over 25 years. This family owned store has a french baking background so the croissants are the lightest you can find. The doughnuts are great - BUT the cream puffs are to die for - light and just the right size. Sometimes there are ready made ones but for more than just a few call ahead! read more

We live down the street from this place and I feel so lucky. Owners are friendly and their donuts are super fresh and tasty! My boyfriend and I also like their breakfast sandwiches. read more

Ah-Mazing....the chocolate croissants, cheese danish, donuts, cream puffs, everything was fantastic. Wasn't really expecting the calliber from a traditional donut shop....cronuts too! Def, def 5 stars. Took a dozen to a family event & they were a huge hit! read more

The cream puffs are the best in town and ridiculously inexpensive. Pick up a few dozen for any party or event. Donuts are great too.
