Everyone here was friendly and informative, the vibes inside are immaculate and give off a chill vibe as if you're not even in a cafe and the drinks are fire. The drink pictured is the brown sugar shaken espresso. It's a little sweeter than what I usually prefer but I give it a 5/5 stars . This returning customer will be back!

Hubs got the sandwich combo, which came with a medium coffee and was offered half/half from the fridge, which was nice. Another Yelper posted a pic of their Tiger Tail crumble that looked SO YUM I was tempted to get it. I have learned to purchase a single donut hole FIRST, taste and see if soy oil is used - it gives a nasty, rancid linger on my palate which ruins an otherwise occasional sweet treat. Most of the time the counter person looks confused by my request on ONE donut hole "to purchase and taste", but this gentleman smiled and "tonged" one to me. YUM! It tastes like a donut SHOULD! So I got the Tiger Tail crumble to go. He heated our croissant sandwiches and we ate them outside at their shaded tables - perfect! Just what we needed before continuing on the road.

I've tried Vietnamese iced coffee in different places across the U.S., and nothing has come close to DK's. Whatever they're doing, they've clearly figured it out, and it's a big reason I keep coming back. Parking is easy, and the inside is exactly what you'd expect from a classic donut shop. The staff is friendly and easy to work with, whether you're ordering something quick or picking out a larger order. They also offer a great variety of themed donuts for events like birthdays, holidays, work parties, or kids' celebrations, in addition to their regular selection. On top of that, they're available on delivery apps like DoorDash and Grubhub, which makes it even easier to get their coffee, donuts, and breakfast sandwiches when you don't feel like going out.
