Every time I'm in the LA area I make a pilgrimage here. I've tried nearly everything. Jets to Basil is still my favorite. However, X Ray Speculoos came closely to stealing that title!

Eater

This bright , colorful shop gives eaters the option to either customize or pick from a pre-designed doughnut . Toppings are creative and unusual versus classic options and offer a great tang with a bite Read more

Donuts & old school emo/hardcore/punk bands. There has never been a better combination. You have to try the Caramel Assault and Chocolate from the Crypt.

Cally

Their best seller is the strawberry lab (whipped cream and fresh strawberries ) for good reason- it's soft and delicious. I'd also strongly recommend making your own- the Bavarian cream is to die for.

Matthew Smith

Some of the best doughnuts I've had in my life! Not a hyperbole - these doughnuts are out of this world good!

Adrian Phillips

The service was excellent and donuts delicious. If you're looking for birthday treats be sure to give a box of a dozen donuts a try. Just pick the ones you want and you are good to go.

DailyCandy

No fair-weather fritters or twists here— each confection is made to order. Pick your donut , fill it up (w/ fruit , jam , Nutella , or even cheese ), choose a glaze, and top it off (candy , nuts , bacon ).

LAist

The "S'Morrissey" is an ungodly configuration of chocolate cake , toasted marshmallows , and graham crackers—may we suggest the alternate name of "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now"? Read more

Rianna Engel

If you add butterscotch cream you have to add sea salt . The combination will be amazing!

Brett WH

I don't really dig on donuts , but this place is great. Lots of savory options. Stop by Scoops on your way out if you're feeling gluttonous and looking for the perfect donut complement.

JNET

Decadent! They customize your doughnut into a glorious creation. I loved their strawberry lab and coconut something.

Jinnie L

Michelle Arnaiz-Dela Rosa

This... Is... So.... Good!! You can pick your donut and customize it. But their donuts are good as is.

Such friendly service , cute shop and sooo many possibilities. I have the feeling the donut of my dreams will have to come to life here.

Aja Brandman

Went an hour and a half before closing and they were out of most flavors. Doughnuts were delicious but staff wasn’t too friendly and interior decor wasn’t great. Passion fruit glaze was my favorite

Kelly Bone

Lots of vegan options ! Also gluten free ! I xoxo the Vegan Jets to Basil

Chad Lauterbach

I'm normally not a big sweets fan. And while you can definitely overdue it here too the quality of the product is epic and worth the occasional splurge.

Gokce

Best donut i have ever eaten! You can order individual donuts just how you like it.

Marielisa Argueta

My favorite was the vanilla cake donut with rainbow sprinkles ! Couldn't have more than a bite of the bacon donut . Way too decadent

Nate Tinner

Flavors were very good. The coffee one, especially.

April Hicks

So I love jets to basil and that's what I should've stuck with. I tried the chocolate from the crypt and I don't taste any cinnamon or cayenne pepper .

Nicholas Barragan

Best Donut in LA. Make sure to stay away from the Bacon Monstrosity they have...it makes you understand too much of a good thing :/

Thirsty James

DIY is the way to go. Make sure to try figs goat cheese with bacon balsamic and basil !
