Some of the best donuts my family and I have had. Super fresh and tasty. Every donut we tried we all loved (the guava, coffee cake, and chocolate brownie). Prices are very fair and donuts are huge! Glad we found this spot we will be back. They also have coffee and ice cream that looked delicious, we will be dipping into that soon. Thanks!
Definitely going back here! They have a range of classic and creative donuts, and they sell quick! As other reviews mentioned, they seem to close early if they sell out. All the donuts I tried were very good, soft and fluffy, not too sweet and a perfect amount of filling. Pricing varies based on specialities, but is fair and worth it! The environment was very clean, and with easy parking in front. My favorite was the french toast. I hope to one day try the malasadas (only available on SELECT Wednesday and Sundays). We were told that it's best to call ahead of time to see if they are making malasadas that week. One of the best donuts in Orlando!
One of my favorite gourmet donut places I enjoy eating. Always something new coming out and I love that not every delicious looking donut is filled just full of delicious toppings. The Malasada donut is only made on Wednesday and Saturday's. It's a hawaiian dough that can be ate alone or with your desired topping. I would definitely buy it the next time and add nutella and strawberries on top @ home. Clean store, clean, minimal space. Great service. My coffee is the bomb!!
Cute donut shop in the SoDo area located on Orange and Michigan. I am all about gourmet desserts and this place has some delicious donuts! There is always a friendly attendant waiting to greet you and help answer any questions you may have. I stopped in and grabbed four massive donuts for the family; salted caramel with corn flakes, chocolate brownie, birthday cake and blueberry cheesecake. These are large donuts that are baked fresh every morning. The inside of the donut is so light and fluffy. The outside is decorated elaborately and very flavorful. Personal favorite is the birthday cake, but the blueberry cheesecake is not far behind! Definitely worth stopping by and seeing which flavors tempt you!
Shaka has some of the most unique and tasty gourmet donuts I've had in my many adventures of finding the best donuts in the country. To see all the donuts freshly made and exquisitely lined up for your convenience is such aesthetically pleasing to look at. My sons split a sausage breakfast sandwich and I had the spam breakfast sandwich. So ono! The sweet and savory combo works here! The shop is clean and the cooks/servers are very personable and friendly to make sure you're having the best donut experience. Things to know: I personally prefer hot and fresh donuts. But I know for quality of the gourmet donuts, you're not always able to get that. But on Saturdays and Wednesday, they make malasadas which are God's sweet gift to the world. If you're able, make sure to order one. Also with these being gourmet donuts, they're going to be pricier than your Dunkin or Krispy Kreme. Know that going in. For 2 breakfast sandwiches and a dozen donuts was over $60. So just plan ahead and know in advance you're going to drop some money on some amazing, life changing donuts!
