Customer Reviews

We are literally obsessed with anything and everything about this place!! The donuts r top notch they?re even better the next day than they are when you get them fresh! We did a pick up and even by the time we got home all of our food was so delicious! And the packaging was so cute!

The donuts here are so unique, they are a little crispy outside and soft and chewy inside. The only thing I could compare it to is a French cruller texture without the air pockets. We tried 6 and they were all good but I think Matcha was my favorite. We went on a Saturday afternoon and didn?t have to wait long at all, it?s clean and nice inside. My only suggestion would be to label the flavors of the donuts or make a sign listing them with images.

I always welcome a new bakery or cafe in downtown syr. Here gives a fun combo of Japanese donuts, Korean corndog and Chinese milktea (gong cha). The operating hour is fantasitc cuz most downtown cafe close so early. Ambience is really good. I ordered 3pcs of donuts and 1 half-and-half potato corndog. Firstly, the server got a wrong order. I think I got the original. Secondly, It took 15 mins to receive it. Waiting time would be better as the servers get used to. Thirdly, the server(who seems like the owner

This is a cute little place! My sister and I got a chocolate mochi donut and a potato mozzarella corn dog (vegetarian friendly - no meat). Both items were enjoyable! The staff is very friendly too! :)

Stopped by Mojo while we were downtown and had 3 delicious Mochi donuts to share. I'm not entirely sure what I ate, but they were light, airy and so delightfully delicious with solid flavor profiles. The place itself is super cute and it's quick and easy to go up to the counter, order and be on your way. The staff was kind and quick and there are a few small tables to sit if you wish. I highly recommend going and trying. They have so much more to offer that I will be going back for... So I'll see you ther

I've been anxiously awaiting for this place to open since I've heard about it, donuts are one of my absolute favorite treats. Boy, expectations were blown out of the water! First, I will say ordering is a bit confusing there. You order food and drinks at two separate counters and It is not clearly defined when you walk in so it can be a bit confusing. You order your drinks at the far left of the counter and food gets ordered at the far right. There are no signs indicating this and hopefully they will change

Between my coworkers and my family, we've ordered at least one of everything and everything is delicious! The donuts are very light, airy and chewy and our favorite flavors are the original, Nutella, and green tea. They have plenty of corn dog options but the breading is so crispy and delicious, the potatoes are a must have and the Cheetos is a unique flavor. They make everything fresh so keep in mind when you order there might be a wait time if they are out of stuff on display, but it's worth the wait. The

Between the corn dog and the donuts and the boba tea, everything this establishment has to offer is amazing! The donuts especially were fresh and had the perfect amount of chew! I recommend everyone to come and try this place out!

So many flavorful donuts delicious first time ever having them. Had one of their drinks, but finished it before I even remember to take pictures. Sorry maybe next time. It was delicious. The employee was so respectful and helpful for my needs I am in Muslim so I had a couple of questions for him . he was pretty awesome and cool about it

Really great texture! Nice amount of chewiness and types of flavors. Nice and fresh as well.

The corn dogs were delicious. We tried the half and half and if you?re looking for a cheese pull these have it! The mochi donuts were soft and fluffy and this was in the evening! They continue to come out fresh throughout the day. The next time we will try the bubble tea!

I have been dreaming of a Korean corn dog place to open in upstate NY, (you could only find these in the city) I came in thursday afternoon (wasn't busy at all) and ordered 3 of the half and half hot cheetos to bring to my friends. YUM!! And only 5.99?! Also got one of the strawberry donuts, very good and very light and airy To future goers that come here, word of advice this is a NEW RESTAURANT. It WILL be slammed packed on weekends and evenings, there WILL be mess-ups, there WILL be long waits. LET THEM F

We tried the mochi donuts (fruity pebbles, strawberry, and coconut), creme brulee milk tea and lychee slush. The donuts were perfect and the drinks were delicious. We'll definitely be coming back again!

Please do NOT waste your time with this one.. I was soo excited for this and I?m so angry I actually sat there for an hour for absolutely nothing. I ordered 2 hot Cheetos half&half, 1 hot Cheetos original, and 1 potato original. Let me remind you, we sat there for like 35 mins. By the time we received our order. They got our order wrong. On top of that, I asked them for a total of 3 hot Cheetos corn dogs and they gave me 2 hot Cheetos corn dog with one regular plain one? Also, I notice one hot Cheetos half&

First time having mochi donuts so I have nothing to compare it to, but exactly as described?.Chewy, soft, and to my surprise not too sweet. Also, love the decor of this place?so freaking cute!

One of favorite spots to stop for a treat. The whole family likes them. Customer service is bland, NOT BAD, just no energy or excitement when you walk in.

This place had a cool tea house vibe (splits space with bubble tea shop) The donuts were excellent and the service was warm

The best donuts I have ever had! The bubble tea is also very good.

The servers were disorganized and unable to handle a full load of customers. We waited 35 minutes for two simple drinks. They didn?t serve based on arrival, nor did they separate mobile orders from walkins. The teas were delicious so it would be nice to have the workers properly trained and organized.

Wow is all I can say ! Definitely add this to the places to frequent ??I got fruity pebbles and cookies and cream . 10/10

They were open on 4th of July!!! They have mochi donuts , milk tea, corn dogs!!!!! It?s seriously the cutest place ever!!! I am going back for a corn dog! I got the dirty brown sugar milk tea with star jelly?s and it taste amazing, I recommend the jelly?s in a fruity tea or drink. The milk tea is fresh, cold and is absolutely a great summer drink. For donuts we got the flavor fruity pebble, strawberry shortcake, chocolate cocoa pebbles, churro, funnel cake and cookies and cream! Every single one taste delic

Currently in mojo. They?re brand new and this is my third time back at the restaurant. I love them so much and the woman who runs it is so sweet. My mozzarella dog came out a little wrong and she was more than happy to accommodate me and and remake it with no questions and was very apologetic. The donuts are amazing, the mozzarella dogs are my absolute favorite. They?re all so kind. A little pricey but worth the price for the location and everything being made fresh in house ????

Stopped in for a coffee on our way back to the office from lunch with a client. The owner, Ellie, invited us to try a new donut she is working on. Ellie and staff were very welcoming and friendly, and her new donut creation was awesome. Stay tuned for new donut on the menu~! I will definitely be back.

We went around 1pm on a Saturday and the lines were crazy. We decided to wait anyways because we were excited to try this new place. We got our donuts at checkout, which were delicious!! And the brown sugar milk tea was the best! However, after waiting in line for about 20 mins to order, it took another hour to get our corn dogs. We finished our donuts and drinks while we waited the hour. Place is fantastic, the wait just sucks.

This place is amazing! Super cute and amazing staff! The donuts are a 1000/10 for sure

I have gone here a few times now, my "usual order" is Strawberry milk tea lrg, 50% sugar, lite ice with pearl and milk foam ontop. I believe it comes to like 8.91$. The only think I guess "negative" comment I have is I wish the cups were bigger. Only because at the last sip my inner fat kid always cry's and demands I go back for more ??. The service is always spot on. The staff and I believe owner I've met have all always been nice. and whenever I need a quick treat I always stop by. I'm from the DMV and ha

We tried their hot Cheetos mozzarella cheese corn dog and we really liked it. My friend mistakenly left her purse at the place and the staff were sweet enough to save the purse for her. We really appreciate it. We are ?? going back again.

The corndogs are delicious and the mochi donuts are fantastic ?? The packaging is adorable and I have to say again the donuts are scrumptious!!!

amazing! I got one half and half of each corndog type and they were all soooo good! Each corndog was made fresh to order, so while it can be a bit of a wait, it?s so worth it. I work downtown so I will definitely be swinging by for lunch. Mochi donuts were awesome too!

Good place nice donuts. Don?t come on your lunch break if you work downtown. They take 15 mins plus to make one corn dog I ordered at 1:30 ONE corn dog. No lines. No crowd. Got my order at 1:49. So other than that good stuff.

I would recommend the donuts. They were good and unique. I will be going back to try more of their menu.

Having heard quite a bit about Mojo in Syracuse, I decided to check out their mochi donuts and rice corn dogs. The experience was a pleasant mix of unique flavors and textures, which certainly sets Mojo apart in the local snack scene. Firstly, the mochi donuts. They're an interesting take on the traditional donut, offering a crispy exterior with a soft, chewy inside. The texture reminds me somewhat of a French cruller, but denser and without the airiness. Among the flavors I tried, the Matcha stood out as

It?s so clean inside!!! The drinks are made fairly quick,and for amazing boba it?s fairly cheap (only because it SO amazing) and the taste melts in my mouth it?s just amazing in general. Plus it nice and quiet and NEVER busy!!! I love it here and I hope to come more.

10/10 very nice place, very polite and respectful owner and staff! My son, niece & nephew were so excited. And they can?t wait to go back, wasn?t a long wait at all! The cashier? Very nice and made mg son, niece and nephew laugh a couple times, felt like we were at home. We we?ll be back!!!! THANK YOU!!

The guys working the joint were very..nonsocial.. it's two businesses side by side same counter .. you order Boba. Then mochi.. they was helping us.. then took someone else's order midsentence. Product was amazing

First off our drinks were given to us incorrectly and we had to wait for them to be made over. Then while waiting for our corn dogs it?s like we paid but never really got our order taken while everyone else started to leave the store we sat there for hours almost and still never got them. The cashiers seemed like they didn?t know much of what was goin on and not to mention their were kids inside claiming onto things and trying to to take things out of peoples hands. That?s just a tip if your someone that wo

The donuts when fresh are next level! There?s something so unique about the texture of these bad boys. I would implore any sweet tooth to come check it out. They also have Korean corn dogs which is AMAZING.

Above and beyond customer service! Right before closing I asked if they could make two custom hot chocolates (not on menu), and they very politely agreed. So thankful I found this gem when most places were closed. Perfect. Thank you!! Thank you!!

Ana ing fried cheese and the mochi donut was so puffy and soft.

The corn dogs are SO good. Also the strawberry mochi donut is out of this world! Can't wait to go back for more!

The donuts are so good and are on par with mochi donuts from nyc!!

Went on opening day, took 35 minutes to get our corn dogs. But the corn dogs and mochi donuts were both delicious!!
