Customer Reviews
Monterey Donut has the best donuts; always freshly made each day. They are soft with a perfect texture. The shop also sell a variety of tasty croissants, such as ham & cheese, chocolate, cream cheese, and regular, muffins and apple fritters. This is my go to donut shop whenever I want to get donuts and croissants. The lady shop owner is so friendly too.
I gave it 4 out of five stars because they only accept cash only. They don't accept debit cards or tap to pay. Other than that, the donuts are a good size and fresh.
My family has been going to Monterey Donut for almost 22 years. The best Donut shop around. Everyone I introduce gets hooked. The best place to get your lotto scratchers, super lotto & Powerball. The best ham and cheese croissants around Mrs. Lee will also make you a fresh one if they run out.
Delicious Donuts and nice variety. Reasonable price for LA. But Cash only.
Best glazed donuts I've ever had, period. My wife agrees. The owner said she's been there for years, but we never bothered to go until last year. Now, we're hooked. We live about a mile and a half away and so we walk to the store for exercise, then treat ourselves for being good :-)
We stayed in the neighborhood for a few days and found this doughnut shop. We immediately became repeat customers! The woman working there was so friendly and helpful. The doughnuts were delicious and the coffee was especially good!
The donuts are excellent. I enjoy a classic glazed and it was simply fantastic - pillowy and the perfect amount of sweetness. Service could?ve been friendlier, but no biggie. Highly recommend.
Donut master's shop. ??Her donuts are perfect. I tried cinnamon donut and cream donut.
This are the best donuts ?? ?? in town. Great costumer service the chocolate donuts are so delicious ??.
The owner is a remarkably cheerful lady. I just love chatting with her about all her awesome donuts and drinks. And boy. Everything here always tastes SUPER fresh. And even the sugary drinks, which I never usually go for in other stores, are quite great too. And the prices are completely reasonable. It?s clear why all the neighbors are head over heels in love with this place.
Best donuts in town! Sonic helped me when I went in, as a first time customer.. i had been seeing neighbors rave about their donuts, and they were delicious! Customer service was excellent too! Will make sure to continue to support Monterey Donuts.. so glad they're back! ?
BEST Donuts in LA!!! They are perfect everytime and so fresh! My favorite is the chocolate topped Bavarian creme. Highly recommend these donuts.
Best most squishy glazed donuts ever! Even the croissants are magical. This shop is also a lucky retailer. The donuts are so good, some may speculate the owner is in league with the devil.
These are THE BEST donuts in Los Angeles. This is an old school donut shop and every donut is perfect.
Honestly amazing donuts and really nice staff. Incredibly cheap for how good they are. My favorite so far is the chocolate donut with coconut flakes but I'm eating here every other day now so maybe I'll find an even better one.
Incredible donuts and a friendly staff. I highly recommend this place!
Worth the drive from Mojave, CA to Monterey Donuts. Donuts are fresh and affordable. Store is always clean. Super Friendly and Sweet Owner and Staff. Please note: Cash Only.
There is a reason why this donut shop has 4.9 stars and hundreds of reviews here and yelp. Because it's perfect. Your first bite thin crispy layer then soft, moist and gooie dough that is not overly agressively offensively sweet like any other places. Easy on ur tummy. The oil is just right and light. U can tell they are fried with care... If u are ever in the near by places and if it's ur break time u have to try it. It gives u a peace of mind and it helps slow down your thinking from hyper active day. U w
The best donuts around! They are perfect and big. They have the right amount of crunch and doughy texture in every bite.
The donuts are huge, taste great and super cheap! But honestly the best part is the lady that runs the shop, she?s always in a great mood and super sweet!
Good donuts bring cash
I love supporting neighborhood businesses and this one does not disappoint. The woman (I?m assuming owner) is so sweet and helpful. I?m a repeat customer and have gotten donuts, coffee and scratchers.
Best kept secret in the South Pasedena / Alhambra area. My first bite of the Chocolate covered Buttermilk and I was hooked. Always Fresh - morning or night. Melt in your mouth. And the coffee is good too. Across parking from Fresco groceries in lil shoppin strip. So much better than the corporate donuts. Check this place out.......mmmmmm yum.
The donuts are good and the prices make it worth the trip every time. Unfortunately they're currently closed due to a fire from a neighboring shop. Can't wait until they're back :(
I agree with the reviews! Got the cheese danish and donuts holes, delicious crispy exterior with warm soft inside on both items. Yum!
Best donuts in town. Variety is large and all equally flavorful. Guy making the donuts is a master baker.
Love their donuts! Been going there for years since I was little!
