Vegan options if you do I'll be heading down first thing tomorrow?

It looks like I really have to start working on the vegan recipe. I’m sorry but we don’t have a vegan menu yet.

Do they have gluten free donuts?

No. Sorry

There was a limited availability menu as well as there regular menu, so we ordered from both: Chutoro Sashimi ($27) - included 6 pieces of fatty bluefin tuna, that could be paired with a wasabi kizami (chopped fresh wasabi stems and leaves marinated in soy sauce), and aged soy sauce. Fish was fresh and the pairings added nicely to each bite. Crab Somen ($29) - included somen noodles, a cold crab dashi, with tomato ohitashi, herbs, and chili oil. The broth was very salty but it didn't cling to noodles well. Adding some chili oil helped a bit, but the star was the cherry tomatoes. Without it the dish would have tasted plan. I was not a fan of this one. Japanese Breakfast Set ($30) - normally the set comes with a roasted market fish, assorted seasonal vegetables, nanatsuboshi short grain rice, and almond miso soup. We swapped it for the limited time Misozuke Tuna Belly, which was dense, meaty, and was marinated in a saikyp miso. The tuna belly was flavorful on it's own, but adding the lemon and green kizami (not sure what this was made of, but it had a pickled, relish, citrusy, savory umami flavor) made it more enjoyable. The rice was fluffy and the light meaty floss on top paired nicely together. I was impressed with the egg and pickled side. Egg texture was like a custard tofu fusion, and I really like the julienned pickled radish. The miso soup is different from regular Japanese restaurants since it had a roasted nutty depth of flavor. This set was delicious. Chicken Katsu ($18) - included panko-fried thigh, b&b daikon, katsu sauce, and mustard. The chicken was juicy dark meat, portion size was a good. I like how they added crunch with the lettuce and sliced daikon. Note to only add a little Japanese Mustard because it was hot. Hottokek ($20) - This is a Japanese Souffle Pancake fluffy hotcake, with honey maple butter, and sesame. When looking at other tables, I understood why people only ate from the middle outwards. The core of the dish was a good souffle, with a soft, airy, creamy texture, in conjunction with the butter and syrup. However, due to the size it's difficult to maintain that quality throughout the whole souffle. The outer layer just tasted like a Chinese sponge cake. Would have liked if there was more butter and syrup provided on the side. The dishes come one at a time so it's not overwhelming to eat, especially when you have a small table and you order a lot of food. The prices are a little steep, but service is good and staff was attentive. It kind of shares a space with a wedding venue, so you can hear and see guests walking, which is interesting. There are 5 individual bathrooms provided, as well. Overall rating would be a 4.5, but I rounded it up to a 5 since I would want to come back again.

If you're on the hunt for a place that offers truly unique and unforgettable donut flavors, Fat Doughnut should be at the top of your list. One of their most exceptional creations is the maple donut, which stands out with its rich, syrupy sweetness and melt-in-your-mouth texture. It's a perfect balance of flavors that brings together the warmth of maple and the soft, doughy goodness of their perfectly crafted donuts. What makes Fat Doughnut even more special is the wide variety of other delectable donuts they offer, each one crafted with care and attention to detail. From classic favorites to bold, inventive flavors, every bite is a delightful surprise. Whether you're craving something sweet and indulgent or looking to try something new, the donuts at Fat Doughnut never disappoint. read more

The doughnuts here are always fresh and big! you know that they are hand made with home-made ingredients and do not contain any preservatives as the franchise businesses out there (Dunkin Donuts etc). We first tried their doughnuts with my husband and loved them so much, that each of us got a dozen for our co- workers. Our co-workers really enjoyed it,too! There was literally nothing left. The price tag is what you would expect from a gourmet doughnut shop, but honestly it's worth it given the size of those things. It's essentially like buying two doughnuts. They have smaller sizes, too, by the way, in case you can't tackle of them big boys. Overall, I would definitely recommend checking it out if you are a doughnut lover! read more

Absolutely the best doughnuts I've ever tried. I've introduced so many friends to them and they agree. Waaaay better than other competitors in the neighborhood. They are family owned and made fresh on site in small batches every day and have over a dozen flavors! The doughnuts are huge and are the softest fluffiest doughnuts ever. If you're not in the mood for a doughnut, they have a bunch of other pastries, cookies and even coffee. Highly recommend!!! read more

We took our donuts over to the Brooklyn Bridge Pier to enjoy since there's no seating here. The cinnamon roll was quite tiny and a bit too hard and doughy. While the regular donuts were pretty, none of it really stood out to me in terms of flavor and texture. To be honest, I don't get why the cinnamon roll made this spot popular. Also, I felt a bit deceived about the cinnamon rolls being made with sweet potato, but it's moreso in the filling than the dough. Even then, still didn't really taste it.
