We've been going to this donut shop for almost a year now on occasion and it is hands down one of the best donut shops compared to others nearby. The donuts are always fresh, fluffy, and I especially like that they are not too sweet. They have some unique flavors, too. One time they threw in an extra donut for us which was quite generous. Will keep coming back to support this awesome donut shop!

I'm not pulling any punches on this one: they're great, the donuts are great, and the place is kept super clean. You literally couldn't ask for anything else from them. What I'm assuming is husband and wife have been NOTHING but great to me since my wife and family moved over. Cheers. You deserve all the flowers. I'll update the next time I go with photos.

OMG. The best pastries and espresso around. I’ve been looking for this place. And the staff was awesome. Their mochi donuts were to die for. Seriously never had anything better. To die for. GO!!!

This shop has become one of my favorite Donut spots! I come early for the freshly baked goodies and am always met with a new array of creations along with the childhood classics. So far, my favorites are their signature Mochi donuts--particularly the Lemongrass and Chocolate Pistachio ones. (Very light, very delicate, and I ate 4 in one sitting)--and the Sweet Cream Filled Cronuts. The service here is very welcoming as well. The owner is very kind and his morning baker always greets us enthusiastically. If you've been wanting a good donut lately and find yourself in the area, this is the place to go to.

I visit sweet dozens regularly and I am always impressed. The quality is top notch, everything is super fresh. And they have a great variety of treats without overdoing it. The cake donuts are good. The yeast donuts are good. The croissants are good. The croissant donut hybrid snack is good, and totally novel to me. I had never tried anything like that before I started coming here. They do a croissant-donut with a crunch topping and it's fabulous. It combined so many things I like. Having access to places like sweet dozens is part of why I like living in Sacramento area. The shop is always super clean. Like gleaming. But they didn't make me feel badly when I tracked gross stuff in. They just grabbed a mop. I've had their iced coffee a few times. If I'm drinking coffee I don't like very much I can usually put sugar in it until I tolerate it. For me, I like their coffee enough to drink without sugar.
