    The best donuts I've ever had! Made fresh to order with delicious toppings. You won't see a bakery case full of donuts here because they make your donuts for you fresh when you place your order. A hot, straight from the fryer donut with gooey delicious toppings is nothing like the donuts we've all become accustomed to. They also have Thrifty ice cream. After one visit I was thinking how cool it would be to own my own Duck Donuts shop.

    These donuts are made to order soft cake donuts. Ordered and ate maple bacon on the spot. I was pleased with the texture of the donut but the sweetness was overwhelming for myself. Worth a visit when you need something sweet after eating something else in the plaza or picking up.

    Wow I can't believe I haven't done a review here yet. All your doughnuts are made fresh to order. They are all warm and yummy. I heard you can get Vegan doughnuts too so I'm here to try some. They use a different dough for Vegan doughnuts. Almost all toppings are Vegan too. I'm not Vegan so I'll eat anything. All the doughnuts are so good. I really like the bacon doughnuts.

    Donuts were very good (although very sugary). The conceit is unique and well executed. The two employees at this location did a remarkable job. Not just providing great service but making the food look as good as it tasted. I imagine it would be easy enough to just slap toppings on a donut, but they actually took the extra time to make it look pretty. A couple other things of note: best store bought hot chocolate I've ever had; they serve Thrifty ice cream (iykyk).

    Donuts are just plain good 🍩 but they're even better when made to order with your choice of glaze/topping 😵‍💫 I had lemon glaze with a raspberry drizzle...and maybe I also sampled a chocolate coconut peanut one also. They were still warm and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. We unintentionally came in right before closing and the employees were so nice about it-taking time to point at special things they thought we should see on our first trip in! Definitely give this place a try-we went at night, but probably any time would be a good time for fresh donuts 😋

    Very sweet, hot, and fresh! Got the dozen signature donuts. ($24-25) Super yummy after a day (easy microwave instructions). Also have rubber ducks to buy if wanted.

    The hype is real. Fresh hot doughnuts DO hit different. Don't pass up on the utensils. Hot and soft while coated in goodness was new to me. The bacon was layered on thick which was great and the blueberry was decadent. Ate the cinnamon one last and wish I didn't. It was still great but I bet it would have been out of this world if it were hot. VooDoo doughnuts eat your heart out. I live in Portland and they have to step their game up. Serve em hot!

    I am not a donut person but was feeling something sweet and they were amazing melt in your mouth. Each donut is made fresh as you wait. We also tried breakfast sandwiches and those were delicious as well.

    Great spot! Not your basic donut shop fare. You pick what you want and it's created for you right on the spot. Coffee is good. Haven't tried their donut sundae but it is Thrifty ice cream so you know it's good. Also looking to try their milkshake and breakfast sandwich next.

    Best donuts 🍩 I have ever had. Made fresh, literally right in front of you at time of order. Like 3d printed food… amazing.

  • 5/5 Cecilia U. 1 year ago on Google
    Ducks Donuts is one of the freshest, decadent donuts you can get. They warm and prepare your choice of toppings or signature flavored donut. I stopped by the Irvine location where Sam greeted and prepared my treats. He was polite and informative. Thank you for prepping my long awaited dessert cravings.

    For $17 these donuts have no flavor. The only ones that had a slight flavor to them were the peanut butter one(top right corner) and the lucky charms one(middle bottom). I would not be trying this again. I'm going to go to my local donut place that actually has donuts that taste like they're advertised. I was very disappointed as the reviews were mostly spectacular.

    Made to order donuts, subway/chipotle style. Chose the french toast toppings and the donut itself came out fresh, hot, and fluffy. Very delicious and it was honestly unexpected. Friday night got kind of busy but from start to finish I still got my donut in like idk 8 minutes so it wasn't that bad. Donut: 8/10 Service: 6/10 Value: 5/10

    The shift lead and the fresh donuts make this place amazing!!!!!! Blueberry donut for the win!! He went a little powdered sugar happy but we blew some Off and it was amazing

    Absolutely fantastic cake donuts. I didn’t think I liked cake donuts before coming here. All of the flavors we got were very good and we will be coming back. They are pretty expensive so it’s only an occasional treat. So far my favorite was the bacon and maple donut, they use very high quality bacon and the whole thing just works together so well. Definitely worth it to check this place out!

    I don't remember what I bought here to be honest. I do remember that a dozen donuts was $28. I also remember the long wait, dispute being the only one there. I absolutely remember the staff's friendliness! When I walked in I expected to see donuts ready. While I was slightly disappointed, the disappointment disappeared as soon as the staff said "All our donuts are made to order". I mean, I waited 10 minutes for my dozen donuts. When I took one out the box it almost burned my fingers! It was that fresh! The first bite... you know, there's only one place that came close to this type of taste. The location is a bit hidden but I bet you won't forget it! Try them out! They're awesome!
