Mochinut Sarasota

"Drove a little over 30 minutes to finally let my kids try this place. First no one was upfront we weren’t sure they were open. Young lady at front was kind but she either was new or gave off the impression she didn’t understand much English. Small selection of donuts. Couch was filthy overall the store seemed like it could use a deep clean. Boba was not that great overly sweet. We got two half and half hot Cheetos, one mozz hot Cheeto and a taki mozz. Kids thought they were ok. Parents did not think they tasted great. The donuts were ok. Really nothing to rave about. The issue is… we all started to feel sick soon after eating. We wonder if it is a cleanliness issue. We won’t be back."

"I came here to eat their half and half Korean for dogs and oh my god they were amazing. The guy serving us was super chill even though we were nervous about our order. My boyfriend also ordered their strawberry slushy with brown sugar boba and it was GODLY. GODLY. 10/10 would go again :)"

"I've been wanting to stop by for a while and was in the area today so I went for it! The shop is small but very cute and there was a nice "instagramable" wall that someone was taking pictures in front of. I had great customer service and the employee explained all the donut flavors to me and was very nice! I got maple, ube, and raspberry. The maple one is really delicious and has a nice doughy and chewy texture. It's somehow both chewy and airy! We haven't tried the rest but are super excited! It was pretty clean inside and they had a decent selection for tea and korean korn dogs. When I got there, 6 donut flavors were out but none of them were labeled. I'd give 5 stars if you could buy an individual donut and if they were labeled. Regardless I'll be back!"

"Disappointing. Went Sunday and got the mochinuts, fruit smoothies, and a hot Cheeto corn dog. The mochinuts we're chewy and didn't taste super fresh or particularly good... They tasted like something you would buy in a pack in a store. The fruit smoothies were extremely disappointing, mine tasted like crushed ice with maybe a half tablespoon of flavoring. Maybe the other teas taste better, but given how sad this trip was I doubt I'll be back to try any other flavors. There's better boba just across the street at Chi Chop. The hot Cheeto corn dog was ok. The Cheeto/corn dog dough was very crunchy and dry and the hot dog itself was nothing to write home about. I feel like I could've made something better at home. I will note they did not have cheese when we went so maybe that would have made it better? But I highly doubt it. Inside was cute looking but very warm and not enough seating. The staff was pleasant and pretty speedy given the amount of customers. All in all, the quality and flavor was not worth the price tag, and there are better options nearby."
