    Glazed donuts, horchata donut, churro donut
    Erin W.

    I came in the middle of the day so it was pretty empty and the donuts weren't super fresh, but that's on me for the time I came. The pistachio butter latte is one of the best pistachio latte's that I've tried, wow 12/10 so good! As for the donuts, the churro was super good and I really like the cream cheese filling 8/10. The horchata donut was pretty mid, the topping overpowered the donut and is really messy to eat 5/10. I would come back for the latte alone!

    We stopped by here late one evening after hearing so much hype about the Salty Donut. Although we only tried one donut (classic glazed), we were blown away by how good it was. The flavor and density were perfect and it is for sure one of the best donuts in the area. I would absolutely come back here and would love to try more of their offerings.

    The Salty is hands down one of my favorite donut spots. The vibe is always on point, the service is friendly, and the donuts? Absolutely delicious. Every time I stop by, I leave happy--it's just that kind of place. I love the variety and how fresh everything tastes, and it feels like they put real care into what they do. This is definitely a spot I'll always come back to.

    My boyfriend and I asked the front cashier about how fresh their donuts get made and she replied that they get made at 7 AM. My boyfriend loves fresh donuts (like coming out of the fryer fresh) and it was probably in the afternoon when we got there. She wasn't the nicest to us honestly after we asked that question and the interaction felt very off so we left. As we left, we heard her complain about us to her coworker and for it being unreasonable to make them fresh... I don't know it left a bad taste in my mouth, so we will likely just go try at a different location earlier in the morning. I will say it's located in a really nice part in Bishop Arts and somewhat tucked away in an alley. Super prettily decorated and clean location. I've heard lots of nice things about this local chain, but it's just the vibes from her reply and her gossiping before we even left the establishment that really got to me.

    Very good donuts! I was impressed. My friend first tried the Salty Donut in Miami and has been a big fan ever since. My only regret is not trying the traditional glazed to get the experience of how their classic donut is. I got the peach cobbler donut and the mixed berry cheesecake donut. Both were great. Will be back!

    The donuts are always great. Especially warmed up. The staff is always a combination and super nice and friendly to talk to. Love the experience every time and it's my kids most requested favorite donut shop in Dallas.

    Such a cute place! I was on my way for a hair cut and had time to spare. I thought "oh a doughnut and a coffee would hold me over!" Then I was like "???" I thought "this is pretty pricey for a doughnut." I got to the counter and I realize one doughnut could probably feed about 4 people LOL these are CAKES made to look like a doughnut!!! Each one is topped with something amazing. Such care into one doughnut. I decided against the calories (this time) but their jalapeño sausage brioche thing was AMAZING. Not too heavy and the sausage wasn't overly salty/greasy I'll keep the size of the doughnuts in mind next time x

    Cookie donut
    Hannah S.

    I had such a great experience here! The cashier/barista was incredibly friendly and helpful, which made the visit even better. The patio is really nice with a breeze and a relaxing vibe that makes it perfect for hanging out. I tried the cookie donut, and it was amazing. I also ordered a hojicha latte, which is similar to matcha but lighter and more earthy, and it was absolutely delicious. Overall, I'm a big fan and will definitely be back!

    Amazing donuts as always. Great location in bishop arts and worth a stop if you are nearby. The location has a lot of seats and highly recommend the donuts. The cheesecake one was delicious and they change their menu seasonally.

    Michelle S.

    The donuts were good, but dare a say a little too thick? You'll need to have a pretty big mouth to bite into their donuts, and don't get me wrong they're good but just enough to satisfy a donut craving. I did like that they were overpoweringly sweet like some donuts can be. The chocolate cake donut was a little dry, the horchata was good, but not anything too special and didn't make sense to me because it lacked cinnamon, and the glazed donut was good for what it was... a simple glazed donut.

    Worse service ever. Came in on the new year day... Ordered what was in the window and idk what they were doing.. and they said it was unavailable. Basically the two donuts that was in the window and last one left .. was gone when I was the one ordering. Then they didn't scan my loyalty card after I asked and said it was too late. Will not be coming back again even though I like this place.

    Cute little specialty donut shop. Service was good and lines moved very quickly. The 3 star review is because the donuts are way way too sweet I we couldn't eat but a third of each one. Also 4 donuts and 3 coffee's $75 that seems a bit steep and our coffee was barely warm when I asked for extra hot and asked them to already to make them hotter they were still just warm a second time around not to mention didn't taste very well.

    Glazed donuts, chocolate and dulce de leche.  The dulce was the best.

    We went to The Salty Donut on a whim and the Yelp recommendations. The service was great - everyone was very nice and accommodating. The atmosphere is cute - and fits right into the neighborhood. However the limited selection of donuts and the fact that they were stale leaves a lot to be desired. We had chocolate, dulce de leche and glazed. All were stale but the flavor on the dulce de leche was by far the most interesting. The matcha was very good.

First of all, the Bishop Arts District itself is incredibly charming.

It's exactly the kind of neighborhood I loveeeee exploring while traveling and if I lived in Dallas, I'd probably frequent this area often. As for The Wild Detectives, the concept alone immediately appealed to me...bookstore meets cafe meets bar meets restaurant. That combination will pretty much always grab my attention. I love to read, I love to eat. The space has a pretty relaxed, community oriented vibe, and during my Saturday morning/early afternoon visit, there were plenty of people working, reading, chatting, and hanging out both inside and on the patio. My one slight disappointment was that the bookstore side itself was smaller than I expected and didn't have quite as extensive a selection as I had imagined. That said, I still managed to leave with a few great additions for my ever growing TBR pile. Overall, this was a worthwhile stop and one I may revisit the next time I'm in Dallas.
