Raised Doughnuts

I’ve tried this place once. Really good donuts. The problem is the parking. I can never find parking to get into the store. Which is probably a good thing for my waist.. but, not my cravings! If this place was easier accessible 5 stars for sure. But it loses one star for all the disappointing times I couldn’t get in

Raspberry donut holes are the perfect combination of sweet and tart and the seasonal red bean mocha donut was perfectly chewy and not overwhelmingly sugary. The space was lovely place to eat my treats. Mi Kim, owner and creator extraordinaire, was behind the counter and she could not have been sweeter, even throwing in an extra donut hole!! I wish I had an upcoming birthday for an excuse to special order one of their fantastic-looking cakes, the selection and customization options look incredible!

I only eat yeasted doughnuts, no offense to my old fashioned and cake doughnut friends, and this is a great little shop! Especially liked the sweet corn and apple fritter! The doughnuts are on the smaller side if you're expecting Top Pot sized. The price point is average for the Seattle area. I'd come back to check out the rotating monthly flavors.

Update 4/08/23: moved to a bigger location with the same great quality of doughnuts :) Enjoyed their Thai tea mochi donut although it's still pretty dense and oily, and the savory everything bagel & mango coconut filled doughnut were really good! Favorite donut place in Seattle, hands down. The owner is a super awesome POC who is very friendly, has an adorable dog and does recipe testing on Thursdays! The shop is open until her morning batch of donuts sells out, so depending on business they can get sold out and closed as early as 11am on a Monday (when we first went!). The blackberry cruller was amazing and the pull-apart quality was really satisfying ~~ and the kinako mochi donuts are deliciously nutty, dense and chewy! I didn't get to try a savory donut (limited edition flavors are usually released on weekends, a single different one each Sunday/Saturday) and posted on their instagram! She also super generously gave me a box of 3 kinako donuts she was recipe testing on Thursday with my name written on it 😭💞💕 love her fusion asian flavors!!! Go give them support and eat lotsa donuts!!
