The Mochi Donut Shop Daly City - Daly City, California

Stopped by because it was conveniently located across Walgreens, where there was a plaza with a good amount of parking spots. Server was friendly and it seems that locals stop by often.

Ube Milk Tea ($5.75) - Confirmed with server that it's made with powder. I got it anyways because I was desperate and instantly regretted it. Probably the worst tapioca balls I've ever had. It tasted like mush.

Popcorn Chicken ($7.99) - Pricy for a little bit of meat coated with thick batter. It wasn't great.

Cute little store and super friendly service, but the sisig and mochi donut wasn't that good. The sisig was a bit too sour for me and the rice was hard.

Love it! I've been craving mochi donuts and this place delivered!
I got the Half Dozen Mochi Donut set with Churro x2, Ube, Birthday Cake, Funnel Cake, & Dark Chocolate.
The texture is great! Chewy like what you expect the mochi to add, but not TOO much like regular mochi. Its a good mix to the donut.
The flavors were perfect! You can tell the flavor you're eating but its not overpowering. I didn't love the Birthday Cake because of the sprinkles but I dont love sprinkles so its got nothing to do with the mochi donut itself. The frosting was yummy (i ate the Oreo side and gave the sprinkle half to my bf).
Comes in a CUUUTE box!

I also got a Longsilog food item. Great amount for the price! The pork sausages were juicy & meaty. Some of the garlic rice pieces were a little harder but that happens when you fry rice. The garlic wasn't super potent or flavorful (which is essential in garlic rice haha) so that was a little disappointing but the runny egg was great for flavoring the rice up to make up for it.

Would definitely go back! Gotta try the boba drinks.

Pros: Lots of items to try for food and drink. Yummy. Price is reasonable. Staff is nice!
AND THEY GIVE FREE BOOKS!!! I love Artemis Fowl and they had 1

Cons: Seems like the donuts only come in 6 flavors (I didn't get Yuzu) and I don't know if/when they rotate flavors, so if you dont like those 6, good luck.
Place is really small inside so you can't hang out in there really. Just a small bar for waiting.

I've been here twice, at first I was excited that there was a place so close to me.

Sadly, I was disappointed. Customer service was meh. Didn't even get greeted or acknowledged when I was the only person there.

I had been having a craving of mochi doughnuts and sadly this didn't satisfy my craving. The doughnuts were greasy and tasted stale or old.

I was surprised with my avocado shake. I thought it was different, especially since they placed a can lid on top. The avocado shake tasted delicious.

Matcha doughnut - oily and dry but has good flavor
Fruity pebbles- a little disappointed because cereal on top was already stale..
Coffee doughnut- flavor is there. Cookie was stale, oily on your fingertips but the topping was dry

I will try this place again to try their rice bowls and fried chicken.

The Mochi Donut Shop has a great atmosphere. The service is super friendly and welcoming, I'llgive them extra points here because they treated me super well. I enjoyed ordering my food and drinks. The corn dogs are delicious, l loved the texture and the flavor. For drink, I got an ube brown sugar, which was sweet and delicious. I also had mochi donuts, which are delicious. I recommend people come here.

Stopped by to try. We got the 3 pack of donuts, ube, yuzu, and dark chocolate. I asked how often they rotate the flavors and they said like once a week, mainly the fruit flavors. Ordered the 3 piece dark meat fried chicken and was told that was a wait, no problem, understandable. Also got the chicken silog. Out of the donuts I think yuzu was the best. The fried chicken kinda smelled of old oil when it came out. It didn't really taste like old oil maybe because it was a tad salty for me. My sister thought the chicken in the silog was also a tad salty. When we ate the donuts we confirmed oil oil taste. Newly opened so maybe still working out the kinks.

Went to check this place out. Kind of a hole in the wall, with a little bit of seating. Came in on a Sunday afternoon. No one was there, so I got my order fairly quickly. Ordered the following
Mochi donuts 1 chocolate 1 funnel cake and 1 churro they were soft and light. Sweetness wasn’t overpowering. (Not pictured, just the box)
Vietnamese coffee.. I liked it a lot. Wish it was a bit bigger in size or offered a larger size. It was strong but but flavorful.
Chocolate smoothie (I did not try but was told it was good, it resembled a chocolate milk)
Hot Cheetos sausage/cheese corndog (not pictured I forgot 😔
It was not a sausage, it was a hot dog so don’t expect much from the sausage part of the corndog. Cheese was extra gooey and the hot Cheetos shell was perfect. If I come back I’ll order the corndog with just cheese.
Cheese and hot Cheetos.. of course I’ll come back.

Wonderful texture, and great value for money with too good to go. I got the ube, churro and funnel flavors along with a iced coffee.
Ube: No ube flavor, just the color but still nice
Churro: The best of them all
Funnel cake: A little bitter weirdly
Iced coffee: Way too sweet but refreshing
