I ended up going back a few more times after my initial one star review, and dealt with the same staff member. She isn't overly friendly but I definitely received better service and can say I've put that brutal initial contact behind me. Love their donuts and kolaches, but I always have to get their ham and Swiss rolls. Those things are so freaking good. The ambiance is nice and calm, great for early morning g pickup. read more

Stopped by here one morning because its close to my job. Its located in a small shopping strip so you may miss it. The young lady working the register was nice. I wanted to try a few things so I ordered the sausage and cheese kolache: bread was good, barely any cheese and a little sausage. I ordered two breakfast tacos. I was given no sauce to go with my tacos nor was I asked if I wanted any (I took my order to go didn't notice until I had left). The breakfast tacos are pretty big so I was excited to taste them. Unfortunately the tacos lacked any flavor. The bacon, egg and cheese taco was basically all eggs with no flavor. Only one piece of bacon. I took two bites and was unimpressed. The potato egg sausage and cheese taco also lacked flavor. Not sure I would visit this spot again. read more

Karma Kolache - A portion of the available selection - Desserts Near Me - Houston, Texas

Good spot with lots of options. They are also open very early. The service is always quick and friendly.

Delicious kolaches, friendly & fast service, and it's clean inside. I haven't had anything that I didn't like here.

Karma Kolache I found this location by just searching Google. The different types of kolaches were very interesting I had to try multiples. The donut selections were awesome, also the kids really enjoyed the different varieties. This is a nice hidden Gem in the Katy, Texas area. The service was pretty good I thought that the person who was serving me had interest in what I was getting. read more

I love the variety! The staff is amazingly helpful. I had An awesome experience overall.

This place has an assortment of Kolaches and donuts. I haven't tried all of them, but most are above average. I've heard rumors that the owners won't give credit card tips to the employees and they keep them for themselves. So if you tip, try and leave it in cash - not sure how true that it, but a customer asked me to leave a tip in cash. If it is true, shame on the owners. Staff is always friendly. They are also fast and efficient. They also have a rewards program as well as free donut with Yelp checkin. read more

Lady in the front was so nice and made great suggestions. Food was great, will be back soon.

DID SOMEONE SAY PEPPERONI PIZZA KOLACHE??? Great little Kolache spot! Stopped here to buy my grandson some breakfast before dropping him off to school. I checked in on Yelp and received a free donut and boy was my grandson happy about that, lol! He ordered a plain beef Kolache with no cheese as if he knew what he was doing. I asked him "how do you know what you want right away? You haven't looked at all the other choices." He said, "Pawpaw brings me here for breakfast sometimes before taking me to school." I was like, "ohhh I see!" Originally, I was only here for my grandson until I scanned the array of Kolache sandwiches behind the counter and I was like, "Whoah! I think I want a Kolache too!" I'm not a breakfast person during the week so this was an extremely tempting situation for me, and one that I could not resist! I succumbed to the rich buttery aroma that was hovering in the atmosphere! I was so lost as I attempted to choose just one Kolache. This task proved to be a difficult one. In the end, I settled for a plain beef Kolache with no cheese because my grandson says that it's great! He was correct! I enjoyed it a little too much. Instead of eating it, I scarfed it down as if I was starving, lol. However, I was able to taste the rich robust and sweet buttery flavor of the croissant which tasted really great with the flavor of the beef sausage. What a great mixture of infused flavors! Next time, and yes there's definitely going to be a next-time, I'm going to try a different Kolache. Maybe, I'll try the brisket Kolache, or maybe the boudin Kolache, or maybe the Philly Cheesesteak Kolache, or maybe the cheeseburger Kolache, or maybe the Chicken Feta Cheese Kolache, or maybe the PEPPERONI PIZZA KOLACHE! Didn't I tell ya? It's no easy task when it should be, lol. There's an extensive selection which makes it difficult but it's worth it! Overall, this establishment is really nice! They are open as early as 6:00 am during the week and it seems like it can get pretty busy as there was a slight line when my son and I arrived around 6:30 am. Customer service is good. It's not anything special to brag about but it's good. Highly recommended! read more

We are regular customers, and this kolache place has been here for about 10 years. They have fresh-made options and introduce new flavors sometimes. I like getting the brisket kolache with a cronut! The service is friendly and family-owned. read more

Excellent doughnuts especially their apple fritter. The kolaches are amazing. I have had a few kolaches that were lacking sausage or other meat ingredients but overall they do a fantastic job. The service is always friendly. My grandson loves the chocolate covered doughnuts with sprinkles. The family is always happy to have their food for breakfast. My only wish would be if they need to charge more to add more meat than do so. Highly recommend supporting this local business! read more

My family used to be obsessed with this place several years ago because the food was so good and everyone was so friendly. Unfortunately we have watched it steadily decline to the point that I'm now leaving my first ever review EVER. We have now consistently gone to Karma only to be served by employees who seem irritated about the fact we are giving them business and can't wait for us to leave. Additionally, the food quality has also steadily declined. We used to get kolaches that were packed so full of goodness that when you took a bite it was hard to keep all that yummy goodness from spilling out. Today, you will get a sad piece of bread with nothing worth while inside. Sadly, this morning the service was so bad, and the food was so terrible, I told the family we will never be going back there again. I hope they turn it around, but I will never give this place another dollar! read more

There was a good variety of options for kolaches and donuts. The kolaches were ok. It seemed like online they offered more meatless options but when in person, they offered the same meatless options you can find at other places. The donut holes were really good though! They were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and had the perfect amount of icing! And they even had red velvet donut holes! It was decent to try because I had never been before, but nothing any more special compared to other donut shops. read more

I'm sorry but these kolaches fell very short of what I was expecting. Extremely underwhelming mainly because there was no flavor. I ordered the carnitas, sausage egg and cheese, and jalapeño popper kolaches. To say that these were disappointing is an understatement. The carnitas had absolutely no flavor and the meat was dry. It was just pulled pork without even salt or pepper. The sausage one should have had flavor at least from the sausage but even that was bland. So with those two being duds I was hoping the jalapeño one would have some flavor from the pepper. Boy was I let down. Nothing. No kick, no heat, no flavor. I might as well have eaten a chunk of cream cheese. Sad. And no, I don't have Covid. I'm sorry, I don't like leaving "bad" reviews but these kolaches gave me food depression. The saving grace as it were was the guy who took my order. He was nice. But good service won't go far if the food isn't good. read more

Today was my 1st time visiting and I am definitely pleased!!! I got lost and the lady on the phone was sooooo helpful in directing me to the store. Very polite!! I walk in and there was a variety to choose from and I had to take a moment just to decide. I finally decided on the spicy sausage and cheese and the spicy boudin. OMG!!! Absolutely delicious!!! Usually when stores say spicy, it isn't true. Not the case with spicy boudin!! The spicy sausage wasn't that spicy for me. However, the bread for both was so buttery, soft and fresh!!! I signed up with my phone nu.ber and was able to get a free doughnut, which was cool!!! I took a picture of the spicy boudin one but I was almost done with the spicy sausage one and realized I didn't snap a picture. I was too busy enjoying the food!!! I will definitely return because there are others that I am looking forward to trying!!! Very satisfied!!!! read more

I tried today, it was correct.Its shame you have to check before you leave. Thanks for being there... Juan H read more

They have the best boudin kolaches on this side of town!!! They come in spicy or not spicy. One kolache is definitely filling and they are heads and shoulders over Shirley's kolaches. The shop is very small and quaint and not made for dining in I have tried their red velvet cake and old fashioned doughnuts and they are both good. They are not too cakey so that us good. This has become our recent favorite quick breakfast stop! read more

Amazing spot!

Wowww... Ive lived in this area, grew up in North Glen and have NEVER been here. I finally got the chance to come in and see what they have. Their kolache collection is insane. They have everything from mac n cheese kolaches to philly cheese steak.. Chorizo.. You name it! It's owned by an asian family which was surprising considering that their chorizo was amazing! Free donut when you check it! You should definitely check it out if youre nearby. The only downfall is that they are a bit pricey.. Definitely great quality! read more

Great Kolaches. Have a wide variety of flavors that some flavors they used a croissant instead of traditional kolache bread

Originally Koala Kolache. I was in the area after an oil change and decided to check this place out. It originally had a 5-star rating before renovating so I wanted to see what the hype was all about. Rather than going to a donut chain, I would prefer supporting a local family-owned business. It was a little too early for donuts with ice cream so I opted for the kolaches instead. I got a spicy sausage and cheese and a spicy boudin. Because I checked in on yelp I received a FREE donut! I chose the blueberry cake donut. (5/5): BLUEBERRY CAKE DONUT: I saw another yelper rave about this one so I had to try it. I love cake donuts because it's dense and a little sweeter compared to normal donuts. I enjoyed the little crunchy bits of sugar. One of the best blueberry cake donuts I've had and even better cause it was free. (4/5): SPICY SAUSAGE AND CHEESE: The ratio of bread to sausage to bread was just enough. I did get the smaller one and not the jumbo. Their sausage had a great flavor and wasn't dry. The jalapenos gave just the right amount of spice. (4/5): SPICY BOUDIN KOLACHE: I got the last one in the case but the cashier told another customer there was more in the back. This one was also pretty good but filling. I did remove some of the bread and only ate the boudin because it was carb overload. I would love to come back and try their sweet dessert donuts with ice cream. It's just a bummer that it's so out of the way for me. read more

Customer service goes a long ways for a business, something that's under appreciated but can make an impact. Was craving donuts after Sunday church. Not many places aside from Dunkin Donuts open after 1pm, but found Karma Kolache after a short yelp search in the area. Saw they offered a free donut with a checkin, plus they have pretty good reviews (limited sample size), so we thought it'd be worth trying. Got 1 donut Bavarian chocolate filled, and used our free donut on an old fashioned glazed. The worker knew it was our first time there so he gave us an additional 2 donuts for free. We basically got 4 donuts for $0.94 - what a pleasant surprise. Good karma. Because of the good customer service, we will return read more

We're fairly new to Houston and noticed all the Kolache shops around. We decided to try this place because of the reviews. I had the smoked sausage one (fantastic flavor!), hubby had the boudain (was just okay to him) and donut holes (yum), grouchy teenager had the cinnamon roll, youngest kid had the ham & swiss kolache (he LOVED It) and a donut with sprinkles. Because it was our first time, we were offered 4 additional donuts FREE! Quick and friendly service! Can't wait to try the chorizo egg & cheese kolache and the chicken and feta one next time. Our youngest kid told me to keep this place a secret. No way. Gotta spread the word and make sure they get lots of business. read more

Karma Kolache - Mmm. Donuts. - Desserts Near Me - Houston, Texas

This is a customer experience review. I walked in and stood 3rd in line. When it was my turn the lady asked who was next. I was the first to answer and I give her my order She completely ignored me. And proceeded to help the lady who stood in line after me. Mind you, I'm a black female while the cashier and the lady next me were Hispanic (she was to my right which clarifies that she was CLEARLY after me). So the situation began to look prejudice. At that point I had lost my appetite but I still ordered. I don't blame the lady who jumped ahead of me in line: I blamed the cashier for blatantly ignoring me. I still remained polite but Needless to say, I won't be going back. I hope no one else has to experience this. read more

Wow, really darn good! The creativity and the flavors are fantastic! I wish they were a little cheaper, but this place is about as good as it gets for kolaches in Houston read more

What a gold mine. I have to say I could eat here a couple of times a week but, the calories would add up fast. This is a husband/wife team and they could not be any more pleasant. The kolaches are nice and flaky. I have gone at lunch time and was lucky enough to get the BBQ and a chicken feta kolache (I think that's what it's called). Both were stuffed with filling. We all know sometimes you go to places and bite into a kolache and are asking yourself "where is the filling", not here. We have bought donuts only twice. Not because we don't like them, but because the kolaches are so good. I do like their donuts better than Shipley's. Oh yeah, almost forgot the apple fritter is yummy. Oh no, now I want a kolache and an apple fritter. Remember they are closed on Mondays. Service=5 Food=5 Return =yes!!! read more

I frequent their other location on Eldridge but stumbled upon this location one very hungry morning as we were running around without our heads on. I always stick to the chicken + feta Kolache and old fashioned doughnut. Somehow they convinced me to try the eggs + grits Kolache. Uhhh... I've been totally missing out! THIS IS A MUST TRY!! As always, their service is prompt + friendly. read more

Thank you Karma Kolache for making my mom's Mother's Day so special!! I called the night before to order. The staff on the phone was helpful, quick, & easy! In the morning when I went to pick up my order I saw a line coming out of the door..... I parked & called them & explained I was here just to pick up my order I already placed. The man on the phone was so sweet & said no need to wait in the line & he came out to my car to hand deliver in my passengers seat! He took my card, ran it, & quickly brought it back to me at my car. Great customer service!!! Will be back 100%. I have recommended them for any special occasion or just for a delicious donut or Kolache! Thanks again karma for your excellent service, staff, & donuts! Great work! read more

So I had an issue with this place, but I had to revise my review because honestly they redeemed themselves and their kolaches and donuts are on point. I ordered today with a credit of free dozen donut holes and a free kolache, so I got 3 spicy boudain kolaches (one for free) chorizo egg and cheese kolache, 2 cinnamon rolls and a dozen donut holes (free). Delivery was quick and easy and I got everything that I asked for. Spicy boudain was indeed spicy, cinnamon roll was huge (although I could of gone with more cinnamon, but thats just personal taste). Overall this place corrected their mistake and their kolaches are really good so go and try it! read more
