This Japanese donut shop is known for its exceptionally fluffy brioche donuts, featuring a unique kabocha squash dough that gives them a honeycomb-like interior. Highly recommended sweet options include the Original Nama, Matcha Cream, Glazed (a vegan option), PB&J, and Caramel Espresso. Savory options like Scrambled Eggs and NY BLT are available but generally considered less successful than the sweet varieties. Some customers found the donuts too moist, while others raved about their deliciousness.
"The Original Nama donut is highly praised for its airy texture, and the Matcha Cream donut is recommended for its strong, earthy green tea flavor. The Glazed donut is a notable vegan option."
Customers praise the donuts for their unique texture and delicious flavors, though many note that the long wait times are a significant drawback. Some suggest it's good but not worth extreme waits.
Important Note
The shop has no seating and is primarily a to-go establishment. Long wait times have been reported, with some customers feeling the wait does not justify the experience.
