7.9
Tucked into a Fashion District mini-mall, DK Delicioso feels like a classic LA counter where workers grab strong coffee, fresh donuts, and breakfast sandwiches before heading to the garment showrooms. The selection leans old-school, with fritters, maple bars, and croissant sandwiches at very friendly prices.

Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Only if your date appreciates low-key charm—it's a no-frills donut counter best for casual meetups, not romantic ambiance.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—there are no reservations. Seating is limited, but turnover is quick and many people take their food to go.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes—kids generally love the donut selection, but seating is sparse and there’s no dedicated family setup. Best for a quick treat rather than a long stay.
Best For
Better for: Early-morning freshness, generous classic donuts, and budget-friendly prices that beat trendier donut boutiques.
Skip if: You want artisanal or vegan donuts, spacious seating, or a café-style hangout environment.
