Donuts are a rare treat in my household. However, my husband is a fan of the little donut "rounds" at Randy's Donuts. So I decided to order delivery of a dozen of the glazed AND a dozen of the "mixed" iced rounds. The mixed iced rounds come in 4 icing flavors and he doesn't like one of the flavors but I wasn't sure if they were able to make exceptions however, I made a special request in my online order not just to remove that flavor but to replace it evenly amongst the other 3 if available. I needed to leave this positive review because of the following: *They obliged my request in every way :) *The text communication about the delivery was fantastic *The delivery was extremely faster than expected *They were warm & fresh *They were neatly placed in the box along with a couple of the regular sized donuts that I "accidentally" ordered as well. :) It was just very professional and beyond what I would expect from a chain donut shop. Way to go Randy's!!! read more

Stopped at the drive-through right before heading to the OC Marathon finish line, and it went sideways pretty quickly. Pulled up and sat there for a few minutes with no acknowledgment... no "be right with you," nothing. That alone has you second guessing whether anyone is there, whether you should just go inside, whether you should leave. Not a great way to start. We placed our order and as we were wrapping up asked if we could swap out a donut. Silence. Got to the window, workers were just moving at their own pace and didn't acknowledge us for about 5 minutes. When someone finally came over we asked again about swapping the donut and she said "oh I heard you before." So she heard us at the speaker and just... didn't respond. That's not a small thing. Donuts were ok, nothing special. The small black coffee kept leaking out the side... lid was on tight, coffee wasn't filled to the top, so something is off with the lids. Overall the service made it hard to enjoy anything about the visit. read more

Awesome food, amazing service. If you haven't been here before, you absolutely need to try it. Look for RD, he is the man!

It is almost high noon and we were driving on Harbor Blvd when I saw the giant circle of a donut on the building. The lovely missus has been here before. Randy's Donuts!! We must stop and get some for an afternoon snack. We enter the store and see a display case with layers and rows of colorful morning sweetness. It is a challenge for sure. The lemon coated and the plumpy round Raspberry filled were her favorites. I'm going for the mound of an Apple Fritter. It was an easy sale for the friendly gentleman behind the counter. The missus got her purse out and she paid a very fair amount for the fresh and large tasty donuts. It was a big box that we carried out. Randy's Donuts was a super stop for huge "Texas" size snacks and that sugar coated Apple Fritter was exactly what I needed this afternoon. read more

I'm such a Randy's lover, I think they are the best. Ordered today from the Costa Mesa location and they are absolutely awful. Stale, hard and nothing like the normal unbelievably delicious donuts I have experienced before. Bummer. read more

It's incredibly handy to have a drive-through donut place. Really like the freshness of Randy's donuts and the staff are very helpful. The prices are on the high side, but also their donuts are pretty big, so I do want to recognize that. Please note, they do not sell iced tea. Iced coffee, yes, but no iced tea. read more

Service was amazing. RD was the manager and had some of the best customer service. 5 out of 5 from me

They don't know how to brew coffee here. Some days it's insanely strong like crude oil. Other days it's very watered down and weak. Here's why... When you brew coffee, the first half of the brew cycle is strong while the last part of the brew cycle is weak. Overall it balances itself out when the full brewing cycle is finished. But If you cheat and steal a cup of coffee early while it's still brewing, you're serving somebody insanely strong coffee. You're also throwing off the entire balance of the brew process and all other customers that come afterwards get a weak cup of coffee. Solution... tell customers they need to wait for the brew cycle to finish before they can get their cup of coffee. read more

Stopped by this business yesterday. My wife and I ordered a few donuts. Had the cream filled long John which was delicious. We also had the lemon buttermilk which was also great. Looking forward to the apple fritter later. The reason for the five stars is because of Pablo. He was very patient and nice to us while we were trying to figure out what to order. He made some great suggestions that helped us out a lot. He really made our visit memorable. read more

RD gave us absolutely fantastic service ! The food is great as well. Just an overall great experience. The atmosphere was great as well.

You won't believe how excited I am about this place! We were in the area, so we just had to stop and grab some donuts. We ended up with six donutsand let me tell you, everything about this spot was fantastic. The ambiance was great, the service was spot-on, and the donuts? Incredible! They're definitely bigger than what you'd find at most donut shops, and the pricing reflects that, but they're absolutely worth it. And the roasted coffee was out of this world -- truly outstanding, good flavor. Plus, there was plenty of parking, and the whole establishment was super clean. If you've never tried them, you absolutely must give them a try! You won't regret it. read more

First time at this location. I haven't been to a Randy's in many years and it was the Original in Inglewood. Nice selection considering it was laye in the morning. Donuts are fresh and tasty! The staff, Arts was very friendly and welcoming. This location isn't close by but I go to Costa Mesa at least once a month. Definitely will go again! read more

Greeted upon entering and wasn't sure if the taste would be the same as the other locations but it was and so yummy! Randy's donuts are high quality and the best maple moist but yet slight fresh crunch of a donut that other places just cannot replicate. The staff was friendly as I took my time to choose 3 dozen donuts for a party. The location is quite new and clean. It even has a section to sit and enjoy your donuts and coffee. read more

Got donuts and a drink. Both were good. I love these donuts. Way better than Dunkin and Krispy because they take days to get stale. They are very soft and the price is great. Took 2 stars off because I didn't like the dude at the counter and he didn't ask if I was rewards and said it's too late to get them; Maybe next time. read more

This was the first Orange County location for Randy's, the LA donut shop, but since its opening, there have been a couple more that were opened up here in OC. It's definitely a great donut choice with lots of options. My favorites are their old-fashioned buttermilk, and Apple Fritters. They are the best over anywhere else! read more

Honestly, there's nothing really special here. Your local mom-and-pop serving doughnuts in pink boxes probably makes tastier ones. But Randy's glazed and yeast-raised is always fluffy一 just the way I like it. Their Costa Mesa location has a 25 foot doughnut on the roof to pay homage to the original Inglewood shop. They also have a drive-through. Choose from a large variety of classic choices, deluxe doughnuts, fancy fritters, and premium pastries. The menu is pretty consistent over the years, but I saw they offer matcha drinks and boba now. Chocolate Raised and Maple Raised are also two simple and sweet options you can't go wrong with. The dough is kind of bready, but not dense at all. Butter Crumb Raised is heavenly but messy to eat, fair warning. Pick up a box before you visit the office or stop by for a late-night snack! read more

Randy's donuts are my go to for my daily donut for work. I literally stop in almost everyday for my chocolate twist and maybe something else if I'm in the mood. Well there is this worker named Pablo. I give Pablo alone aside of the donuts a 5 star. He has been friendly, courteous and very welcoming from the day that I have met him. He greets me by name makes me feel welcome and is very thorough in every transaction. I adore this young guy. I mean who doesn't want to be treated like they are truly welcome while patronizing an establishment? He along with the chocolate twist is the reason that I keep coming. Keep up the good work young man. read more

First of all, when I pulled up to the speaker to order, nobody was answering for a period of 10 minutes. After nobody answered, I pulled up to the first window, and was greeted by some guy named "Pablo." Not even a "hi, welcome, how can I help you today?" Instead, I was answered with a dramatic opening of the window, followed by a "what do you want." This is not how you attend customers, and this is an example of the worst customer service out there. I then proceeded with telling him my order, and when I asked him for his name, he said "what's yours" in the same attitude he gave me when he opened the window. This is unbelievable how business owners allow this to slide. "Pablo" you don't have to let off your frustration and anger on the customers....such a shame...If I could leave less than a 1 star rating I would gladly do it. He needs to be re- train or move to the back. If you wonder why this place has 3 star raiting take guess. Please contact me. read more

It had been a while since I visited this location and I'm happy to bump it up a star to four stars as they found that the service here was very helpful and the Online Ordering system was very easy to use. They had a good selection of all the donuts that I was looking for, and it is certainly very convenient location so overall, I am going to Say great job. read more

My husband wanted to surprise me with a blueberry donut (which I truly love from the Inglewood location), so he stopped by the Costa Mesa location and bought two. Well, I am sorry to write that they were dry, stale, and tasteless. The icing, which is usually thin but you know it's there, was only a flake of one imagination. His buttermilk donut was also dry and flavorless. Please, please, Randy's Corporation, it is time for quality control at this location. read more

Great donut, ok prices. I had always heard about Randys but finally got to try it. Overall Id recommend. Personally I like sidecar a little more for "fancy donuts" but they have different flavor donuts to your "classic" donut shop. Its a nice change from the usual with fun flavors. They can get pretty picked over so come early read more

I really enjoy the classic yeast donut (chocolate frosted) yummm so fresh !!! It's like your biting into a cloud.

I found Randy donuts while I was going to another restaurant. Stop by and order a chocolate chip cake donut. I ordered it through the drive thru. The donut was delicious and very soft. The service was great and the staff were very friendly. Drive thru ambiance is very customer friendly. read more

Outstanding Service and very very clean!! I grew up by the OG Location on Manchester blvd- which is nostalgic but not so clean .. but still go back.. I LoVe the cherry donut and butter crunch donut best!! So nice to see this chain expanding!! The decor is unfittingly modern here but nonetheless lends to a very clean aesthetic and restaurant. There is a drive thru to be noted but I went in the morning on Sunday 7am 6/28 and the guy working was so nice wishing me a lovely day and explaining all the choices at that time there was a pride month donut a 250th American birthday donut and a huge maple bar with bacon in which he said if that isn't American I don't know what is!! I stand by the creed whatever you do, do with gusto and treat people like you would! Absolutely Wonderful service made my morning turn into wonderful day. I prefer espresso but luckily there lattes pack a punch sometimes espresso outside Starbucks is isn't strong but this is good stuff here!! Was able to tie my dogs up on railing love to have an alternative to Starbucks daily when that menu feels uninteresting love Randy's!! read more

For our first time being at a Randy's donuts, we were pleasantly surprised my husband really liked the maple long john! He usually says the frosting is too thick at other donut shops, but Randy's is perfect, haha! Their General Manager, RD, was so friendly and accommodating with offering his recommendations. We will definitely be coming back for the churro donut! read more

Just left Randy's drive thru and from the first impression to the last, Nick was phenomenal. His professional funny personality was so welcoming and just so fun. My husband and I just wanted a Texas donut to share so we popped in and we were so happy we did. He said something we've never heard before. . He said, "do you want the evidence?" Meaning the receipt. So witty. Fyi- we're coming back, and if he gives us the same great service, we may try and recruit him. read more

Randy's Donuts - Our guilty pleasure. Yum! - Donuts Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

The BEST! Their dough is so soft, fluffy and delicious. Some of our favorites are apple fritters, cookies and cream, raised sprinkles and chocolate raised. Their cookies and cream donuts are the only cookies and cream donuts I know with real oreos blended into the frosting. The apple fritter is bigger than my head and perfectly crispy on the outside while maintaining an ooey gooey center. The service has always been great at this location. Ardy is an absolute gem! If you go later in the day, they very likely may be out of some of our favorites, but they still have a plentiful variety of other delicious fried goods. read more

Randy's Donuts - Apple Fritter, Chocolate Raised, Pink Raised with Sprinkles - Donuts Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Randy's Donuts - Costa Mesa (Harbor Blvd) Rating: 4 out of 5 stars Date of visit: Weekday morning Order: 18 donuts Total: Just over $50 TL;DR: Big, flashy donuts that live up to the hype. If you want something over-the-top (or just really well-made classics), this is a great stop. Not cheap, but worth it if you're splitting a box or trying to impress the office. Went early on a weekday and had zero wait. Staff was cool, donuts were fresh, and the box had legit variety. --- What I Ordered: 18 assorted donuts. Mix of classic, fancy, and just plain wild. Some highlights: M&M Chocolate Raised - sweet on sweet, soft base with a candy crunch. Cinnamon Sugar Cake - crisp edges, moist inside, not greasy. A sleeper hit. Maple Bar - huge, fluffy, with a bold maple glaze. Old-Fashioned Glazed - crispy, sweet, nailed the texture. Square Glazed Raised - same dough as the classic round, but that shape adds some bite. Fruity Pebbles Raised - pure chaos. Very sweet but fun if you like cereal donuts. Pistachio Glazed - weirdly balanced and subtle. Really liked this one. Salted Caramel Churro (Deluxe) - the most extra donut in the box. Mini churro on top, sticky caramel icing, dense. Tasty but intense. Oreo Cookies & Cream - good cookie crumble and cream combo. Glazed Twist / Cruller - thick, chewy, old-school feel. Chocolate Sprinkle Raised - nostalgic and solid. Purple Iced Cake (maybe taro?) - good texture, flavor was just okay. Classic Glazed Round - no frills, done right. Powdered Sugar Cake - fresh, not too sweet, melts in your mouth. Maple Crumb - maple frosting plus a soft graham crumble -- great combo. There were a couple others in the box I couldn't ID exactly (maybe filled ones?), but nothing was stale or over-fried. Everything tasted like it had just been made that morning. --- The Experience: Went in around 7:30 AM on a weekday. No line. No chaos. Just a chill morning donut run. Inside was spotless. The display cases were full, and everything looked fresh. Staff was friendly and patient even though I took a minute to pick out 18 different kinds. Parking was easy -- lot's not huge but it wasn't full either. This spot's in a small plaza so access is super straightforward. --- Pricing: $50+ for 18 donuts sounds high, but honestly, I didn't feel ripped off. The deluxe and premium ones run around $3.50-$4 each, and even the classics are larger than average. You're paying for size, quality, and creativity here. That said, I wouldn't roll through here weekly unless I was made of money and had the metabolism of a teenager. --- What I Liked: Big variety of styles and flavors Donuts were super fresh Creative toppings without being lazy (everything felt intentional) Fast, friendly service even early morning Clean, easy-to-navigate setup What Could Be Better: A few of the deluxe ones were sugar bombs -- fun but not balanced Prices stack up fast --- Final Verdict: If you're in the area and want donuts that go beyond the usual, Randy's Costa Mesa is worth the stop. Whether you're after classic glazed or looking to try something stacked with cereal, cookies, or churros, they've got options. Just go in knowing it's not a budget bakery -- you're here for fun and flavor, not a discount dozen. Would I come back? Yep. Next time I'm keeping it 50/50: half classic, half wild. read more
