    Potato half and half
    Yvonne K.

    I had a craving to try something new and so I decided I wanted to try Korean hot dogs. I found Mochinut served them so I headed on down. I got a half and half with potato and Cheetos on the outside. The reason I'm giving a 4 star is specifically due to the hot dog and the unglazed mochinut. When you walk in, staff are friendly and greet you. The space is a bit sparse, reminiscent of a traditional doughnut shop but no tables to sit at. There is a backdrop to take pictures. On the side are two large screens which you order from. It took me a while to figure it out but I got it down. The glazed doughnuts or flavored doughnuts are a dream. The flavors are fresh and delightful. I didn't feel guilty after eating one, so I ate two more. I also got the ube bubble tea without the boba which was equally delicious. The unglazed and hot dog didn't seem to have much flavor and the hot dog was a god awful mess. They weren't horrible, just didn't seem to have any taste. I would definitely come back here for the glazed doughnuts and a cup of coffee with no sugar because I won't need it. The texture is chewy but not like gum. It definitely lived up to the mochi name!

    So, I only tried 2 of the Mochinuts.. the glazed and the cookies and cream BUT I can confidently say they are probably all excellent just by texture alone. When I initially saw them I thought they would be hard, but NO NO NO they are so soft and squishy! Basically a perfect texture! They were pretty expensive at like $5 a single donut; however, just to try was worth it. The inside was a bit empty and the TV's seemed to be broken and damaged. The empty and not so appealing inside is why it is a 4 instead of a 5. The person who was taking our order was very friendly and made jokes with me and my friend when it came to his very poor signature which I thought was lovely customer service! I can't wait to come back when it is back to its former glory :)

    Food: Delicious! I love the chewy texture of mochi, and it's in the form of donuts?! What's not to love lol. They come out with new flavors each week, just follow their IG. I came right as they opened so everything was fresh, I appreciate how light and not so sweet the donuts are. Service: quick and easy. Ambiance: Bright and clean, there is a cute faux flower station where you can take a quick selfie.

    This is a restaurant that serves Korean style corndogs, mochi donuts, and bubble tea. The neatest thing imo is that you use one of the two touchscreen kiosks to place your order! **Average Cost(s): $10 **Order: $ -Original Rice Dog With Sugar ($7.00) This is what I came here for and it was superb. I really can't imagine eating any other style of corndog now. It comes with a sauce of your choosing. I strongly suggest trying one of the sugar covered corndogs. -Coffee Bubble Tea with Extra Boba ($7.50) The coffee milk tea itself was good, but the boba was a bit mushy and flavorless. **Seating: there is no seating inside or outside the establishment. This is very much a grab & go type of restaurant. **Location: located next to Jaz Tea in a very popular shopping center that has a lot of Asian owned businesses and restaurant. There is plenty of parking and it appears to be fairly safe. **Service: the brief interaction I had with the employee was pleasant.

    Ohhh! A mochi donut place opened not too far from where we live! The only other one to my knowledge that's relatively close is one in Gig Harbor and you need to use a toll bridge for that. The donuts here are very good. We got half a dozen with five different frostings. All were very good and chewy like a good mochi donut should be. Probably my favorite one was the black sesame frosted donut. They also served some intriguing looking hotdogs but we didn't get any of those as we already made lunch plans so definitely for another time.

    Was not busy on the weekend that we went. We ordered a brown sugar boba (3.5/5) and three cheese corn dogs (5/5). My husband's sauce was govhujang but might have been bbq. He was a little disappointed. The parm sauce I got with my corn dogs was good.

    I got the Ube Horchata & 6 mochinuts

    I saw some of the reviews, but I looooove the Ube Horchata as I never had a Horchata before but I tasted what seemed like rice milk & I enjoyed it since it was something familiar to me growing up in my Korean household- The donuts are not just pretty to look at, but this being my first time trying, I was surprised how similar texture to mochi whiile it looked just like any donut on the inside. The service wasn't horrible, they were fairly quick and we didn't have to wait long for our donuts & drinks, I will definitely order again to let my boyfriend try these!

    Stopped by after a busy day of having to run errands around Tacoma and I'm so glad I did! When my husband and I first discovered this place I was in love. Thankfully my errands took me near the store so I stopped in about an hour after opening and thankfully they had lots of donuts still!! I've gone a couple hours after they've opened before and they have been sold out of everything so I wanted to make sure if I went, I didn't go too late. This was the first time I tried the Korean dog with mozzarella and marinara for dipping sauce and it was so delicious. I'm very glad I got it, I'm going to have to try a different one next time; they have a few varieties. Overall cute little shop with great service.

    The Ube donut is so pretty!

    How can you not like a mochi donut?? I'm indifferent when it comes to a regular donut, but when you make it fluffy and/or chewy, I'm suddenly ravenous, sugar high be darned. Was in the area and happened to spot the sign for Mochinut so I stopped in and picked up one of each flavor: Ube, Cookies and Cream, Chocolate, Funnel Cake, Cinnamon Sugar, and Original Glazes. We also ordered an additional ube and funnel cake to have on the way home without diving into the half dozen box. The ube was really tasty, but my favorite was the original glaze because I'm a sucker for the chewiness of the actual donut as opposed to the bread being a serving vessel and relying on the flavor and sweetness of the icing to bring it home. All of the flavors had just the right balance of sweet icing to donut, and you could easily eat one or two without getting to that sickeningly sweet stage that you'd normally get by eating a regular donut. If you like that chewiness from something like a rice cake (the Asian kind), then you'll love these. Give 'em a try!

    Mochinut is finally in Tacoma! If you are looking for something different, this will definitely rock your socks. These are mochi style doughnuts. Not the usual donuts you are used to. The textures of mochi doughnuts are supposed to be light, airy, and chewy. These doughnuts are not too sweet and you can bite into them as is or tear each of the balls apart. They change flavors every week I think and will have atleast 6 different flavors to choose from at one time. You can purchase 1, 3, half a dozen or a dozen at a time. They also have korean style hotdogs, which if you have never had, I highly recommend trying them. It looks like a corndog, but the batter is different and they are called hot dogs not corndogs. They are deep fried till crispy. Then you can top it off with sprinkling of sugar and drizzle with your choice of sauce. The options in filling are sausage, mozzarella cheese, or half cheese and half sausage. The types of batter to choose from are between the original, ramen, potato, or hot cheetos. I have to say though that their hotdogs were okay, it's smaller and the choices are slim compared to other korean corndog places I've been to. They also serve boba here, which I have yet to try at any of the mochinut locations. But its good to know you can pretty much get all your fixins in one stop.

    We didn't know there's a mochinut in Lakewood, it doesn't seem it's that popular compared with the one in south center or Seattle. Personally we don't think this place has the freshest donut, and they made different compared to the other two locations. It is okay for our liking. However the strawberry pound cake is pretty good out of the other 6 of them.

    Had mochi donuts last week in honolulu.. So when I saw this place by boohan, I was excited. Visually, it looks similar, if not the same as the ones inside Macy's in honolulu. Taste wise.. a bit sweeter and more like a donut density. Maybe the ube was difference. They have kiosks you order and pay from. They shoot you a text when your order is ready. Parking can be a nightmare as it's in the boohan plaza on s tacoma way.

    Makaila O.

    Im not one to give reviews like this, but my food was awful. My corn dog was completely burnt and tasted like old oil, and the cheese tasted so odd to me. Not even that but the donuts were so undercooked. I know they're gonna be chewy given it's mochi but I've had multiple mochi donut places and they've never tasted so weird like that? I was so excited because I love Seoul hotdog and Dochi but this was just not it. Save your money :( (Ps: the store is so dirty, the floor and doors were disgusting)

I'm always humbled by the people who seem to have a natural gift for connecting with others, and the man at the grill that day showed my son an incredible act of kindness that I want to share. My son was having a rough day, so he sat down on the curb to cool off while we waited for our hot dog. The man at the grill noticed and asked for his help. My son immediately jumped up, handed me his bag, and told me he needed to help with the stand. And just like that, his whole mood changed - he had a purpose, he got to be part of something. With that one simple act of kindness, this man completely turned my son's day around and gave me a new parenting lesson in the process. In that moment, my kid didn't need a pep talk; he needed a chance to contribute and feel needed. This man saw that and chose to engage and I am so grateful he did. To the man at the Big Dawgs stand: thank you for noticing and engaging with my kid, your generosity, and for being an active part of our community. Your small act made a big difference, and we won't forget it.

I went to this truck while it was near Microsoft's building in Downtown Bellevue, close to my work. They are pretty good about posting their location on Twitter - so follow them! Anyway, I got "El Macho" - Marinated Steak, Crema, Cilantro, Guac, and Cotija Cheese on a challah roll. First impression... not a challah roll. That's a very specific kind of bread that kind of looks like braids - not sure why they'd misclassify it? Just marketing? Very weird. Anyway, the bread was a perfectly good sandwich/hoagie kind of roll. Super soft inside. A little crisp on the outside. Great! The filling was a little sparse. I expected a little more from it, but it was well balanced, to be fair. The meat was tender and pretty good, though lacking seasoning. The "guac" was kind of a non-entity - it gave a nice mouthfeel, but I didn't get much avocado, onion, or anything from it. The cotija cheese definitely shined through, which is why I said it was well balanced. An imbalance of meat/avocado could have completely hidden it, but it was definitely there - and tasty! I paid $13.00 for the full sandwich. They offered waffle fries for $1 more, which I declined. I don't think I needed it - I'm stuffed. While I expected it to be bigger, I don't think it needed to be. I think my ideal lunch would be a more-stuffed, full-on, half-sandwich with some waffle fries and ketchup (or maybe some inspired, interesting sauce!) - maybe next time. There are so many really great places to get a sandwich in Bellevue: Potbelly is half the price (and better) and Homegrown is similarly priced with better sandwiches. So, the market is a tough one to compete. I would have expected something more elevated for the price - better seasoning, more of a punch/interest/fun, something... For kind of a Mexican inspired sandwich (like a torta), there was no heat. No spice. No sauce.

    Sandwich was small. Basically a small amount of meat on a hot dog bun. The meat didn't even cover…read morethe whole bun. Way too expensive for what was served! Also: if a main ingredient [listed on your menu as part of a sandwich] is out of stock [or wasn't "prepared for you"] - you should let your customers know before they order! Don't assume they will accept mayo as a substitute. Yuck!

I placed an order - it was fairly easy since I had read the menu before, but I specifically ask for my burger to be cut in half and also an order of fry sauce with my onion rings. When I went to pay, they actually physically took my phone from me to do Apple Pay - which most companies won't allow because what if they drop your $1500 iphone - are they going to be responsible for breaking it? They need to have an option where the customer can just tap from their car - after I had already paid, and added a tip -.I asked how many fry sauce it included and I was ask how many I wanted. I said 2 and then he told me it would be $.70! Really?? after I just paid $19 you can't throw in one fry sauce? So they did another credit card transaction once again taking my phone for $.70 -,I know it cost them more than that to process it so they are really the loser there. I can understand charging me if I order five different sauces but really with a $20 meal you can't give me one free sauce? That just leaves a bad taste in my mouth plus my burger wasn't cutting in half as requested.. Took less than five minutes to get my order. Was very shocked to see that I only got three large and two tiny onion rings for almost $5. When they were only two minutes old and hot they were delicious but even five minutes later after they had cooled down, they just tasted doughy and gross. The burger was exactly what I would have at a family backyard BBQ,, literally everything was a Costco ingredient which is fine. It was OK but absolutely nothing special about it. The best part of the meal was actually a small blackberry shake, which was good - once again not great not bad. For $19 with tax and tip it wasn't overpriced for what I got, but it wasn't a deal by any means. And to answer , the age old question, Will I be back? Probably not, but if somebody I was with really wanted to stop here, I wouldn't object.
