Shoutout to Gary and the Duck Donuts team!…read more I usually order Duck Donuts for team meetings on EZ Cater, maybe 3 dozen max at a time with 1-2 coffee buckets. I recently had a very large order and did 45 dozen (540 pieces!!) directly with the store. Gary was very quick to respond and helpful with the flavor reccs/modifications. We did: glazed, french toast, chocolate with chocolate sprinkles, chocolate covered strawberry, strawberry w rainbow sprinkles, and vanilla chocolate swirl. Day of, Gary was on time with the delivery (even with my last minute time change due to another delivery). Everything was accurate, fresh and carefully packaged. Duck donuts was such a hit! My favorite flavor is the French toast. Highly recommend!!

Stopped here to grab some ice cream from chocolate shoppe ice cream and while the ice cream tasted…read moregreat the experience was pretty horrible. When I searched on Google for ice cream near me- chocolate shoppe ice cream popped up then upon looking further I realized it was sold within duck donuts. Still ventured to try it Two guys working, one said he was new, and didn't know where all the flavors were / allowed us to try some b4 we ordered but was a pain bc the flavors were spread between two freezers in front of store and whatever was in the back. Placed an order for 3 double scoop cups (all they had) and took a really long time to make them having to figure out where the flavors were between the front and back of store. Then. They didn't have lids to cover them or a bag to put them in - so we literally covered each cup with another cup and put in a box I had from Costco in my trunk to get them home without dripping everywhere in my car. And I say dripping everywhere bc by the time he finished the last cup/. The others were melted from taking so long. They should probably just stick to donuts if they can't fully support the ice cream products. If I knew now/ I wouldn't have chosen to try there for ice cream. Very unfortunate, bc we probably would have loved the ice cream - but the experience clearly trumped the product.

I wasn't quite sure what to expect from Oliboli Donuts, but I was pleasantly surprised. Their…read moreyeast-raised, fermented dough creates a soft, fluffy, and airy donut that doesn't leave you feeling weighed down afterward. Every donut is fried to order so they come out fresh, warm, and so delicious! The donuts range from about $5.50 to $7 each - pricier than your average donut shop but the quality is evident in every bite. We waited about 8-10 minutes after ordering since there were a few people ahead of us, but the fresh-to-order experience made the wait worthwhile. My favorite was the Butter Pecan (not a flavor I'd normally choose). It had great flavor/texture and even had a hint of saltiness at the end of each bite . The Strawberry Glaze made with Harry's strawberries was another standout; fresh-tasting and flavorful without any artificial sweetness. Parking is shared with neighboring businesses. We visited on a Friday afternoon and had no trouble finding a spot, but the lot is fairly small and will likely get crowded during peak hours and weekends.

For those seeking superior quality, I recommend exploring alternative options. Yesterday, I…read moreexperienced an unfortunate incident while ordering through DoorDash. Upon retrieving my order, I discovered that my ham and cheese croissant was not fully cooked. I even saw the lady cook both of them together, not separately. The mayonnaise and cheese were cold in the center, which was quite unpleasant and disappointing. Mags Donuts, a well-established establishment in Irvine, has maintained high standards for a considerable period. However, I believe it is imperative to conduct regular inspections by health authorities to ensure compliance with hygiene regulations. Recently, I observed a fly inside the donut and bagel cases, which is a clear indication of inadequate sanitation practices. The environment was slow. There wasn't that many people inside. The ladies are amazing and sweet but they do not know English as good!! There is a massive language barrier but I have to give it to them. They are good with recovering. They gave me another food item as complimentary after mentioning how upset I felt besides that, poor experience. Service is what matters now in the world and without good service how will a business become successful now? I should've taken my business elsewhere where but I'm glad I got to experience this for the last time hopefully Thank you! Best of luck. I was not aware there was a different business owner. I had thought the business owner were the ladies and gentleman making the donuts. Maybe it's time to switch up the team for better results..

My top donuts so far: -Creme Brulee -Earl Grey -Berry -Matcha The flavored creams and glazes in each donut are so delicious and really give each donut its unique flavor profile. The flavors are natural and true to their name. They also have the cutest miniature donut gift set (box of 6)!! A great gift imo because the donuts here are visually stunning and delicious, but not over the top. They also do many deals, like buy 2 get 1 free donuts. Their drinks are also on the cheaper side. The shop is peaceful and retro and the staff are always so sweet. I stop by here with my pup often.

I usually love coming to sidecar because of their delicious donuts but I was very disappointed…read morewith the service I received today. It was 10 min before closing & idk if the girls were just rushing to close down but one girl in particular had an attitude. There was a miscommunication / misunderstanding with the girl who took my coffee order (I had assumed the seasonal banana latte came with the foam as pictured & because she didn't ask if I wanted the foam, I didn't ask for it more-so bc she asked if I wanted the brittle on top). When they handed me my drink it was a plain banana latte with no foam or brittle. I was ignored when I tried calling for the barista until another girl followed up - however this girl had an attitude. She told me that I must not have ordered it since they ask at the register if I want foam with brittle. Explained they didn't ask. Instead she just said "sorry I'll let them know for next time". And walked away leaving me with my drink as is. Didn't offer any sort of resolution. I walked in and asked they could charge me extra for the foam. The same girl with the attitude remade my drink and handed it to me. No thank you, no sorry, nothing. First time experiencing this kind of service. Not sure if the girl is new but saw someone else share a similar experience couple days ago. Wish I would have asked for her name!

Really good! I've been here many times but I realized I've never reviewed this place. Of all times…read moreI've been here, it's no question a 5 star. The donuts were really fresh and hot when we got them. My wife loves the butter and salt one and it's absolutely perfect! The saltiness balances out with the richness and sweetness. I also ordered the golden hour grey, which was the seasonal flavor, and it was really unique. It was citrusy and light. Sidecar is definitely in it's own league and its tough to find other donuts to really compete with them. The store was pretty small with very limited seating at this location so it's more of a grab and go type of location. It's not too far from the beach though. Service was really efficient. Even if there was a line, it goes by quite quickly. It's worth it anyways!

Parking can get a little tight in the free parking lot, but we didn't have too much trouble on Sunday afternoon. The interior was very cute and pretty with flowers. They also sell mochi donuts -- this looks like a rebrand Bober Tea shop that's known for their "stir fried" boba. The brown sugar boba in our drinks tasted like the super soft and flavorful boba. My husband and I really loved the boba. But at 100% sweet, the drink was wayyy too sweet that we had to dilute it with water. Next time I would get half sweet. It had a very nice black tea flavor that shone through which is unique from other boba shops.

THIS ONE STAR REVIEW IS ONLY FOR THE WAY THE LINE IS SET UP HERE. I love everything else about…read moreCream Pan, but honestly, the line to select your pastry and the checkout is so UN-USER-FRIENDLY. The self service, pre-made lunch bentos, sandos and sushi area is fine, but once you need assistance from a worker, it starts getting ridic. How so? You speak to whomever is attempting to assist you OVER and UNDER a twenty-four year old counter area that holds the pastries and/or through a tiny hole in the cabinets. You can hardly make eye contact with the person, because all the pastry is in between where you are standing and where they are standing. Some people are tall, some short, but regardless, there is NO WAY to have a conversation with them. They are trying to see what exactly you are possibly pointing to in the case, but as noted, you're talking thru a case of pastry. This is also true at the Fountain Valley location, where they only have a very small counter to check out with many people standing in line trying to have someone collect their order from the back. Maybe also ask WHY there is never any KINAKO donuts? I was there at 11 am and I got THE LAST ONE! If these are so popular, why don't you make enough to sell throughout the day? Every other time I've been here, you were already SOLD OUT! SMH HAS ANYONE HERE SEEN THE SELF SERVICE process at 85 degrees? All their pastry is individually wrapped and you calmly walk through the SELF SERVICE pastry area with a tray and tongs to help yourself. If you'd like to pass the person in front of you, it's easy and doable because there is plenty of room and it doesn't make anyone feel like you are taking "cuts". Once you get to the end, the cashier totals up your tray and puts it in a bag or box for you. Done & Done. Let me reiterate that your pastry and food are all above par and I know you've been in business since 2002 and let me commend you for 24 years of service, but it's time to CHANGE IT UP to a more user friendly process. It's not appealing to anyone in this busy day and age that there is a line out the door, ONLY BECAUSE THE PROCESS INSIDE NEEDS HELP! It's also more sanitary that the pastry and breads are wrapped ahead of time as I saw a fly inside the case today. Ugh.

Finally made a trip to the mainland, made off with my daughter's car, and headed down the 22 for some Spanish bread. I ordered a box of 20 STAXX, and six assorted donuts.

Knowing myself, I placed the boxes in the trunk and headed back to the pad. And then BAD things happened. I placed the box of STAXX on the counter, opened it up and inhaled that BAD-baked scent. I promptly ate up three STAXX...you can't eat just one. I am coming back in the weekend to try their Ube version.
