Give this place a try! Donuts have a very chewy texture. Perfect sweetness. Love the packaging of the boba drinks (lid is like a soda can top). I’ve been here numerous times and every time, the employees here were super friendly, which is a plus. Our little Bernedoodle approves this place :)
MOCHINUT always delivers! My wife gets the Blue Takis Mozzarella & I get the Hot Cheetos Half & Half! Half mozzarella/half hot dog! Tastes more like a polish

So addicting! Love all of their options, so fun and delicious 💕
Was taken aback by the empty store front with signs but no displays. Idk if they’re just robbery cautious or what but visited because of locational convenience. Ordered a dozen - was ready in under 10 min Altho no status update was given and there was no staff. 5 stars for the donuts - they’re better than Mochill or any of the other competitors/places I’ve been to within the state. The glazes were really tasty and not too sweet (I got 8 diff flavors, favorite being Guava and Fruity pebbles). Donuts were super moist and springy without being greasy. It was a huge hit for the party I bought them for with both people who are mochi-nuts and ppl who’d never had them before. Definitely going back.
I've never been there in person but I just want to say I'd like to see the regular cookies and cream (Oreo) mochinut flavor more often, we rarely ever see it anymore and it's the best flavor. Please, make more cookies and cream donuts, pleeeeeeeease.

Stopped in for a quick bite. Wait time was a long for a weekday. The ice cream disappointingly was not available the day I visited. The Hot Cheeto and Taki hotdog had great strong flavor but were a bit oily. Also ordered brown sugar boba on milk tea had strong flavor although on the too sweet side. I'd visit again to try other items on the menu.

Love the mochi donuts. They are the perfect mixtures of topping to donut. The original potato korean corndog is so good! I get it and dont use sauce cause it’s so good. However, stopping to get some in a rush and they are advertised to be open at 9 am and are closed and door locked at 1030am? Not ideal. Called and they said they open at 11. If those are your hours please post them correctly.

Saw this place opened up while I was driving down my usual route. Wait time was pretty decent, didn't take forever like a lot of reviews I saw said it did. I ordered at a self serve kiosk and got my order within 10 minutes. I got the matcha milk tea with boba. The boba itself was pretty overcooked and almost mushy, but I'm giving them a pass for now since this store is fairly new. So I'm hoping in a few months time, their boba quality gets better lol For the mochi donuts, I got fruity pebbles, churro matcha, and blueberry funnel cake. The texture of the donuts themselves were great! Crispy bite and chewy center. The fruity pebbles was my favorite. The blueberry's flavor was a bit more subtle. I couldn't taste the churro matcha flavor at all. Overall, the place is alright. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt for now and hope the quality of their stuff will only improve in the future. I'd love to come back and try their soft serve!

Group order from uber eats, my co workers didn't really like the chicken popcorn (its nasty) mc donald is even better!!! Bobas too sweet, you guys should have choices of level of sweetness... It was my first time ordering and I encourage my co workers to order with me and I got humiliated!!!

Mochinut are delicious! Sadly, the service here is non-existent- literally. There is a computer to input your order that mandates a “tip”. Nobody there behind the counter to give me my paid for food for 10 minutes. Went next door, got a coffee, came back- still nobody(but obviously workers there in the back). Ended up having to yell for help to receive my mochinut, which had been sitting there behind the counter the entire time
Only good to buy ahead of time online. Went into the store to buy one donut and couldn't order from a person who was right there grab my donut and go. No, the system is you have to order from a kiosk and then wait for your order to come up? So I stood there right infront of the one donut I want in arms reach waiting in an empty store for my order to be processed. Just weird. No hate on employees just a silly way for it to work as a company.

Donut was subpar. Tried multiple flavors, all just cloyingly sweet. Texture was interesting but not worth the increased price. Staff literally runs into the back when someone walks through the door and seem unable to notify someone when their order is ready.
Very overpriced. The donuts are not worth it, in addition to the Swelly Cream bread.
If you try to order in the store, there's no one to help you. If you try to order on the app, it sometimes mysteriously doesn't let you order donuts. Overall, they really need to work on actually making it easy to pay them money for their product...
Mango mochi are not house made. It occurred to me that those mochi are the same one we bought from ranch 99 , the snack version. Cream puff are the one you can buy from Safeway as a bucket of them.
MochiGo isn’t the best dessert spot I’ve tried, but it’s a good option if you’re looking for something sweet late at night.

Got the rice hot dog yesterday, half cheese, half sausage. It was over fried and the oil tasted old. So it gave the whole thing an undesirable aftertaste. Tried three of the mochi nut things (sesame, popcorn caramel, and matcha). Not good. Expensive too. It has a weird texture between doughy and gummy. And for all it’s toppings/frostings….weirdly tasteless. I didn’t care for it. Won’t be back.
I was very disappointed in my visit today. I ordered the crème brûlée and funnel Cake mochi donut. There was not much mochi to it. More batter. It was not fluffy like you would expect. The toppings or lack of toppings on these donuts are a shame and not worth the $3.00+ dollars per donut. The crème brûlée lacked flavor and looked bland. The atmosphere itself was uninviting ie no chairs/waiting area. The structure of the building is slanted there is no view on how the donuts are made. The two employees did not greet any customers walking in or out and our order took over 10 minutes. Save yourself the trouble and head on over to Third culture Bakery.
In hopes of a chewy, springy, maybe a little greasy and warm mochi donuts and mabye getting in some polyphenols with an Ube frosting, I ordered a plain mochi donut, an ube mochi donut and then, since I love hot Cheetos, I decided to splurge on the Hot Cheeto, nacho potato hotdog. First off, the donuts are cold, so the ample grease used in creating them adheres to the roof of your mouth. Yuck. If you order one donut rather than a pack of donuts, the donuts come individually packaged in clear plastic boxes that are unlikely to ever be recycled. Gross overkill. The one benefit, to me, is that the texture of the mochi donut is much more enjoyable than a standard flour donut. I liked the donut texture and the fact that the batter itself was not too sweet. On balance though I’m not coming back for another cold one of these. If it were served warm and in paper, I might consider buying another plain one. However, at $3.50 each, I feel like it’s not a great value. Second, instead of Ube in this frosting on the Ube Mochi Donut, it’s ample Red Dye #3. You can tell from the look of the frosting, which is too dark to be Ube, plus the bitter taste of Red Dye #3, (that is still legal in Ca in food coloring) that they make it purple with dye, not with Ube. I’ve not tasted Red Dye #3 since I was a child. If nostalgic for a heaping helping of carcinogens in your food, this is your spot! When I read Nacho Cheese in the description, I assumed a savory cheese mixture. In fact the cheese is a sort of white velveeta mixed with a sweetener. Short of a roach, I can’t imagine a worse surprise next to a hot dog than the sweetness I would expect in a cheese danish. The red powdery stuff on the outside tastes nothing like Red Hot Cheetos. It was just decoration. The mashed potatoes that are packed around the hot dog and deep fried are studded with French fries. All of the potatoe mixture has a hint of sweet. It’s clearly something that came out of a deep freeze, having been assembled at a factory. I feel like I am eating pretend, plastic food, like in a display. I could not eat it. Waste makes me sad but the idea of getting sick from this grossness makes me sadder. So, it went into the compost bin. The only redeeming feature of this item is the well designed, adorable and compostable box that it comes in. The only time you might see a human when in this store is when employees, who are slogging back and forth from freezer to deep fryer may trudge past the kitchen door. Other than that, you order at a kiosk and your food just appears, with your name on it (even tho I only gave them my phone#) on the counter. Don’t be fooled by the cute, cheerful, clean looking exterior of this business. It could not be more depressing. Even tho I ate just a bite of each donut and a bite of the weird hot dog thing, I still feel icky from it. If you listen to your body, it will tell you not to go back!
Horrible food looks like it was prepared with hatred. Was very nice to the workers and they were rude and stale. The energy matches this disgusting food. Avoid!!
Mochidonuts are fine but service is non-existent. Until technology can deliver reliable and efficient service, I'll take business elsewhere to small shops that care.

I tried to make an order at this restaurant. Just simply asked if the donuts were gluten safe. The Chef was very dismissive and refused to answer my question. There were two other staff members who just stared at me and said nothing as well. Your staff should know basic food allergies and should treat people of color like human beings. Very disappointing. When I asked to speak to management I was told to go to a different store next time.
Ordered some food on uber eats. It was a very large and expensive order over $70. I called restaurant to explain some things I needed. I had to call 5 times just for someone to answer. The lady who answered was very rude. She assured me that she took care of my order correctly. Of course when I opened my bag everything was incorrect. I’ll never order from here again
