Voodoo Doughnut

Colorful, quirky, and impossible to ignore, Voodoo Doughnut in Los Angeles feels more like a candy shop than a donut stop. The display is packed with a huge selection of creative and fun donuts, from wild cereal toppings to playful shapes that make you smile before the first bite. Flavors are sweet, soft, and satisfying, with plenty of options for classic lovers and adventurous snackers alike. The vibe is lively, the staff keeps things moving, and the whole place has a playful energy that makes it stand out from typical donut shops. Prices lean a bit high, but the novelty and variety make it worthwhile. It’s the kind of spot that turns a simple dessert run into something memorable and worth sharing. Definitely a place to revisit with friends soon.

A great place to fill your cravings and have a good cup of coffee. Plus next door is Pinks and what a wonderful combo… great hot dogs and then a sweet delicious dessert. The place is inviting and they sell merchandise to their customers.The selection of donuts is great and they are so good. The staff is really nice, friendly and knowledgeable, plus they make a good coffee. The prices are reasonable for single donuts but priced high for a dozen. The donuts are really good and soft. The establishment is all hot pink with great murals and goes well with their neighbor who is all hot pink too. The parking is limited but there’s parking on the street and alley. It is accessible to all and kid friendly.

This is a pretty cool donut place. They have a lot of varieties. I love the ambience! I would definitely go back again and try some of the other flavors. They also have vegan options.

Can be additive place for sweet tooth. Been to the original place in Portland and the one in Universal Studios walkway. Glad they opened at this location, especially right next to Pink’s hot dog place. Super nice, clean and pinky decor with great vibe. So friendly and funny staff. Love their donuts, fluffy and delish filling. Funky & shockingly donut shape…loving it. Perfect for dessert after the hot dog snack to end the evening in LA.

I just discovered voodoo doughnut,and was excited to see that they had vegan options which is hard to find nowadays.We had the vegan Old Dirty Bastard Donut and it was huge and phenomenal 😍we will be going back. My only nitpick would be I wish they had more vegan options well they do have like maybe 5 or 6 I wish they had some more options without all the extra bells and whistles on it . Because sometimes someone just wants a regular more plain vegan donut, and not the 10 lb magic yummy donut that look like they're just for Christmas 😝They are fabulous though,I already want to go back

Went here about 1am in the morning. Friendly service. I really liked the carousel to see the donuts before buying. I apparently didn’t look too closely because I ordered the cock and balls for the novelty and that donut is enormous. It was a chocolate iced donut, and add to it cheekiness, it was cream filled. Unfortunately I forgot to get pictures of all of our donuts. We ordered six donuts. They were larger than your regular donuts and some of the flavors and designs were different. Im the end, the donuts’ texture was soft and stale like they were left to sit for awhile. Maybe at 1am, they are all the way.

My first time visiting Voodoo Doughnuts. Pumpkin Spice Latte Mild not too sweet. Thanks to Natalie for helping me guide through so many options of doughnuts 🙏😵‍💫

Good selection of vegan donuts, and regular donuts.clean, well lit store. Free parking. No tables, nowhere to sit and eat- just to go. Had the same selection as the branch in Portland

We were at Pink's and I noticed Voodoo donuts next door. I didn't know they had a SoCal location and wanted to try them after all the hype I had seen in years prior about their Portland startup. I've tried my share of donuts over the years and these did not disappoint. The maple bar with bacon was excellent. The chocolate on the raised donut was perfect. My wife enjoyed her favorite, plain glazed. We've been back for a second visit on our way back from Canters deli and I can easily say that I am hooked on Voodoo Donuts.

Top tier donuts!!!! Not only are these super fresh and delicious donuts, but the staff at the Melrose location are absolutely incredible. Shout out to GM Billy for helping us create these custom themed donuts he was such a pleasure to work with. The bakers were also so amazing in following our inspo photos and getting them perfect. They take pride in their work and it shows!! Cold brew and black coffee are also super solid and go great with donuts :) it's a small shop but they have easy parking. Ambiance is nice!

On the hunt for a good apple fritter donut. This place is located on the corner next to Pinks hot dog, the building itself is PINK, you can't miss it. Plenty of parking, before stepping into the place you can see the menu of the difference donuts. The apple fritter is HUGE, so sad that I couldn't find any apples in my donut. So sad! Old fashion donut was dry and not moist. The churro cheesecake donut was good and I think the cheesecake helped it from being dry. The oreo donut was also dry. Blueberry cake donut, that one was actually moist and flavorful. Overall, I probably won't be coming back to get donuts here. 2/5 were good donut.

Recently found myself in LA and wanted to go to Pinks. When we were done with lunch, we saw Voodoo and decided to stop in. There was a line with a few people ahead of us and just one gentleman working the counter. We ordered a few of the voodoo doll donuts as well as the Memphis and the strawberry donuts. The voodoo donut was very good and this was recommended to me by my sister. I like the raspberry filling and that it isn't too sweet like a pie filling. The strawberry was very good and the Memphis was like nothing I have had but very good. At around $4-$5 a piece its not bad. I would return.

Today, I had the pleasure of trying Voodoo Doughnuts. The apple fritter was very good. The raspberry filled donut was very good too. We will be ordering again from Voodoo doughnuts!

I'm preface this with the fact that I'm not a breakfast guy or a donut guy. Bad for the hips lol. However, I've heard of this spot and I figured I'd bring a friend a few treats after lunch. Stopped by and the room was very welcoming. Staff was awesome and knowledgeable. They were friendly and willing to give me their personal recommendations. The vibe inside is a chill donut shop. Very clean and well maintained. The donuts were pretty good. The icing is a little sweet for my taste. Almost like a fondant type of texture which isn't my favorite. But they did have this apple donut which had an apple chutney inside and a chai spice icing. By far my favorite of the batch. If you're in town, it's a pretty cool spot to visit at least once.

3.5 stars. My peeps road-tripped from LA to the Bay & brought me back a few Voodoo Doughnuts, & because they know me so well, they chose flavors I also would've handpicked, had I been there. I tried: -- buttermilk bar: nothing will ever compare to Randy's Donut's version, this one included. Not enough sugary, crystallized glaze, & the overall taste wasn't as good. -- butterfingering: I mean, that name is just so wild; major points for that, alone. An ok cake donut with a delightfully-chunky topping of candy bar goodness. -- maple cream: my favorite of the trio. The filling wasn't cloying which helped balance out the thin, sweet glaze. Edible gifts to show you thought of me on your travels: always + forever five stars.

Bottom-line: donuts here are made with sugar, spice , black magik and Angry! Just the way I like it! Oh and vegan options too! My rating distribution for donut joints in Los Angeles has been consistently high-rated . Why? Los Angeles has some bomb ass donuts . Voodoo has an incredibly wide array of options, many of them are wacky Dr Stein like creations where sugary holes meet meat. I take a minimalist approach when judging à donut. Call it based, but my metric boils down to this: À good donut need not any toppings -- or very little. I ordered the regular glazed donut, and one glazed donut with sprinkly frosty top with a cherry filling. The regular glaze was moist, creamy the way a man likes it! The flex sprinkled frosted topping plus filling was fresh -- no store bought high -fructose generic corn syrup here. 5/5

Always fresh and I like the changing of the flavors. I order them once a month sooo yummy

This place is everything!!!! the staff was welcoming. The restaurant was nice. This is an awesome place to go get donuts.

I was waiting for an order a block or so away, so I decided to wander on over. Normally it doesn't take much for me when it comes to doughnuts, so this was a no-brainer. There was a couple of people ahead of me which was good since I wanted to take a look at what they had to offer. I do have to say that the service here was great; helpful and super-friendly which is commendable in this part of town, much less town in general. They seemed happy to be there which is a rarity. Sadly, I wasn't too impressed with the product. I guess too much basic doughnuts in my life have screwed me when it comes to tasting real doughnuts, and I know a lot of people were thrilled when Voodoo came to this side of town so they wouldn't have to go to Universal anymore. I had a chocolate cake and a chocolate ring which I know aren't the most exciting choices, but I figure if I enjoy the basic, I'll branch off to the Grape Ape, etc. Maybe I am growing away from doughnuts which is devastating, but I am glad I tried this place. Thanks to the great staff that was working that day!

Pink building on the corner of Melrose--you guessed it, Voodoo doughnuts. I first had their donuts when in Portland, perhaps like most, and I was so happy that they are making their way a little further down south. I was greeted upon entering and hopped in line. I ordered the Vegan Belgian cream and Vegan Raised Glaze. The Belgium cream donut was good, but a little on the sweet side; the raised glaze was absolutely delicious. It rekindled fond memories both the donuts and the shop in Portland. It was clean inside of the establishment and the service was great. Definitely worth a visit and it's right on the corner you cannot miss it!

Not bad donuts but nothing to go out of the way for. I mostly come for the funny designs and because I'm close by to one. Tried it at city walk. Tried it in another state on one of my travels and my enthusiasm is about the same at each lol. I've tried a few different ones like the Homer, the dirt, this time I tried strawberry shortcake which was one I liked a little bit more and they had a funny Pac-Man one called "cok n ballz" which I got for the meme factor of surprising my friends with this "funny shaped" donut. Donuts here are like $6+ for the specialty donuts and no disrespect the donut shop by my house with their $7 donuts though a little more costly are way more impressive. Not a bad spot to try out but nothing to make a crazy detour for. The decor and names are creative but the donuts have always left me feeling just whatever about them.

Years ago, I attended a party where someone brought a box of VooDoo Doughnuts. I remember trying the signature VooDoo Doll doughnut. Not sure who I was mad at, but I'm sure they felt it when I bit their head off. LOL! Based on the name most people think this place originated in New Orleans. However, it was founded in Portland, OR by two friends - Kenneth "Cat Daddy" Pogson & Tres Shannon. VooDoo offers traditional and unconventional flavors sporting clever names (like Old Dirty Bastard) and creative toppings. Their repertoire includes 40 artisan creations and 10 vegan options. I finally had the opportunity to check out the new location on Melrose. The first thing I noticed was the visually appealing décor and the vast selection of tempting doughnuts on display in the carousel case. The young man behind the counter was very friendly. I asked for a Raised Glaze for my nephew and a Churro Cheesecake for me. Both were yeast raised and they were thick, fluffy, & chewy. The glaze was sweeter than I expected but better than what you get at a regular ole donut shop. The Churro Cheesecake was coated in cinnamon sugar topped with dollops of creamy cheesecake and a caramel drizzle. There was also some cheesecake filling inside. It was exceptionally yummy! It was very filling, so I saved the rest for the next day. Next time I'm in the area I will try some other flavors because "Good things come in pink boxes."

Great service and very cute interior. Donuts are displayed in a unique way. I wish I enjoyed my donut more but it was kind of cold, giving the icing an odd texture. It also lacked sprinkles.

Got the vegan raised glaze and vegan maple bar doughnuts. Both were raised donuts that were a bit on the oily side, but made up for it in its softness and pillowy-ness. The raise glaze had a perfect amount of glaze, but the maple bar had a really thick layer of glaze that made it way too sweet.

Thrilled to have this place closer and easier to visit than the City Walk location. Having discovered Voodoo in Portland, this is a welcome treat to have another location in LA. Everything here is fantastic. I'm partial to anything chocolate, but you can't go wrong with whatever you pick. Love the style of this store. Staff was super helpful and nice. Easy and free parking. I happened to come super early on a weekend morning so service was super quick and everything had just been made.

Ambiance: the donut shop is located at the corner spot, right next the pink hotdog place, it's for takeout orders only, they have a rotating display rack for donuts, unfortunately it's very gross to see huge cockroaches running on the ground and into the store from outside Service: you can place order online or through the counter, and it's generally fast to pick up, staff working here is very friendly and patient with questions, provided useful suggestion Food: they have variety choices of donuts, and some seasonal items Voodoo Doll - **** Raised yeast doughnut filled with raspberry jelly topped with chocolate frosting and a pretzel stake, and the characteristics of Voodoo Dolls are all different, creative designs, recommend Old Dirty Bastard - *** Raised yeast doughnut with chocolate frosting, chocolate cream-filled cookies, and peanut butter, bold sugary taste Price: large pieces and decent prices, each donut cost around $5

Voodoo Donuts is such a wonderful donut place with soft, dense, and absolutely delicious treats. I honestly don't remember which flavors I got because our server Stella, I think that was her name, picked out a few for us and we trusted her completely. I'm so glad we did because every bite was amazing. The rotating donuts are so cute, and the pretty pink aesthetic inside the store is really charming.

We've been fans of Voodoo Doughnut since we first visited the original store in Portland several years ago. Is Voodoo something you can do regularly? Probably not -- especially if you are trying to put off that cardiac thing or if you're watching your money. That said, we pulled into the Voodoo Doughnut on Fairfax in LA for a late-night snack after a nearby concert. Wow...were we disappointed. My wife and I each grabbed a couple of doughnuts (one for the ride home and one for the next morning). She had the Butterfingering and the maple bar donuts, and I had a Memphis Mafia and a Raspberry Romeo. In each case, the donuts were either stale or the oil they were fried in was "dirty." Back in my college days, I used to trudge down to the campus kitchen before the sun came up. I'd throw on the ol' apron and start cranking out donuts for my fellow students. It doesn't take much to make an OK-tasting donut...we're not talking Michelin-level work here. But to make a really tasty (memorably good) donut requires attention to detail -- and you've got to make sure the oil you're using isn't old and nasty. Maybe rolling into the shop around 10:30-11 pm meant the donuts that had gone unsold throughout the day were just sitting and waiting to go. But if that was my store, I wouldn't have sold donuts that were like the ones we bought that night. P.S. I should add that the person who helped us was terrific. She was friendly and courteous.

Just stopped by this legendary donut shop, part of a chain out of Portland, because my friend loves their "grape ape" donut (it tastes like grape candy and Welch's grape juice). Saw their limited edition Halloween donut collection which is definitely worth a trip. My favorite donut here is the "school daze" peanut butter and jelly donut but right now they have a special "PEANUT BUTTER POLTERGEIST" donut just for Halloween season. Free Parking on the side and the merchandise and donut boxes are so cute. One thing I really appreciate is the service because they are so patient even if there's a line and if you're trying to pick a donut they'll gladly give advice and help you out. Decor is so cute and definitely Instagram worthy. If you have a friend from out of town that loves donuts and you want to surprise them, this is a great stop! The only thing that would make this place better is if they had a table or somewhere to sit to enjoy a donut because once you get your big box of donuts, of course you want to try one and it's not as much fun & very messy eating them in the car or on the street.

If you love donuts like I do, this place might be for you. Located next door to world-famous P--s hot dogs. The donuts are large and fully loaded on top with a variety of sweets cost triple the normal cost of a donut, well worth it. Good donuts for anyone craving a different type of donuts.

I honestly don't even really LIKE doughnuts... but these are a game changer. We get 'em delivered (Postmates). At first I assumed they were going to be just another gimmicky place with so-so pastries. So wrong. Sure, they're gimmicky but these doughnuts are seriously fresh, with super creative fillings and toppings. The chocolate that covers the Portland Cream, the Voodoo Doll and others is lush and definitely not an afterthought. The fillings don't taste like the familiar "goo" that you'll find inside most doughnuts. The Apple Fritter is perfection, although not always available, so grab one if you see it. So pleasantly surprised by this place. There will be no other doughnuts for me now.

First of all, I want to remind everyone about the concepts that make life worthwhile, for just a minute: happiness, healthiness, accessibility, and, well, just plain fun. For me, Voodoo Doughnuts ticks all the boxes. Of course there are doughnuts elsewhere. In fact, I care so little about the "where" when I need a doughnut fix that I will take one from the supermarket, in a box, stale and tasteless. So, when I tell you that I am delighted with Voodoo, thrilled to have found them, that they bring me joy, it is because, unless I want to be 600 pounds, I have to pick my doughnut shopping very carefully and cautiously. Let's step back a minute. I discovered Voodoo Doughnuts at Universal City Walk (see my reviews from October of 2024 on this) and was immediately struck by its novelty, the Mardi Gras colors, the dark humor vibe, the Goth implications and the quality of the doughnuts themselves. I don't expect these to be Michelin Star products and wouldn't want them if they were. For crying out loud, a doughnut is street stuff, hardy, fried to the point of dangerous, sugary, decadence in endless combos of flavor, style, and texture. I went to professional baking school. Doughnuts must be deep fried. Period, end of story. Nothing else is a doughnut. So, let's put the sugar-fat-salt scoldings aside. I get a doughnut to satisfy a craving for hedonism. Since I am pretty disciplined in most things, this is an outlet, this lets some air out of the over-filled balloon that is life these days. Now, it is a hassle to go to Universal City Walk for any reason, much less to get a quirky confection. Imagine how wonderful it is that they opened one on Melrose, with insane long hours, and parking, in a cute, murky-girlie pink building, and filled it with unbelievably cheerful and friendly people like Wavi G.! Imagine! If I had room (body and fridge, that is) for dozens of these little mouth-toys, I would have gotten one of every single one they had. Instead, we controlled ourselves and made the limit 6; these are large and we split them so we wouldn't feel overly guilty. We got the: Raised Maple Bar, Voodoo Doll, Viscous Hibiscus, Homer, Grape Ape, Blueberry Cake. (Yelp is not letting me upload my picture of the box contents yet, for some reason -- stay tuned.) These doughnuts do not disappoint. They are unique (love that about them!), they make us squeal with laughter at the shapes, concepts, toppings, and flavors. They are satisfying without giving me that awful aftertaste of lard or unhealthy fats that, as a lifelong vegetarian and somewhat health nut, I can detect immediately on first bite with some fried goods. Nope, they go down easy, don't stir up my stomach, and I slept like a baby afterward, despite eating the Voodoo Doll at 9 pm. Now, if they would only put one near my house, I promise my higher self, I will walk there and back to make up for being so self-satisfying. Run, don't walk. You won't be sorry.

Every single donut was amazing! We got them on a bogo night so 12 was 24! But my favorites were peanut butter and jelly and the voodoo doll. It took days and yes we shared a lot! But we loved them and when we're back in LA we'll get them again! My daughter was obsessed with her shark bite one! I'm annoyedu can't find the pictures! Sorry yelp friends

Early morning had to pee...Vodoo donuts was open,but told me I had to make a purchase to use the banyo...so whatcha gonna do?!! I told my son get me anything with Raspberry filling,and get himself one that he liked...We'll the almost $8 price tag for 2 donuts was a shock,I took a few pix and thought I'd do a review of the Vodoo spell... Well... I was very impressed...! The 'Raspberry Romeo" was delicious...great filling and a soft raised glaze,Kings flour?..I liked it...and even at that price,I would buy it again... My son purchase a 'Maple bacon bar"...AND THAT WAS MY FAVORITE OF THE 2...Let me tell you...the maple frosting was thickly spread on top the bar of raised dough of donut,authentic maple flavor and, 'THICK" with 2 slices of bacon on top that was super crunchy and paired well with the savory sweet goin on with each bite...I MOST DEFINITELY AGREE WITH THESE DONUTS AND BUYING THEM AGAIN! Yes their pricy,but I don't know of any place else that packs their donuts with all that yummy yum! To go once in a blue moon would be ok....Unless you get a deal,WHO COULD AFFORD A DOZEN?!!!!! LOL

This is such a fun donut shop! The energy is so fun and welcoming. It's just a counter where you order to go but there is a big observation window so you can see all the donut making magic! If you ask them nicely, they might write on your donut for you! All of the donuts were so fresh and soft! Some of the best quality donuts but fun flavors and shapes like other bakeries where you get donuts that taste like they are more for looking at... these are not like that! We had 5 - and shared them with a group of 3 and ate them so fast this is the only picture I got! Mango and Cap'n Crunch were my favorites but I can't wait to come back and try more!

Still a favorite. I've eaten these in various places and states and always a winner. I missed these in Las Vegas! I love creativity and then great tasting donuts. The names are a RIOT! DIRTY OLD MAN or donut in the photo are my favorite. Yet I swallowed down Diablo and Vodoo in seconds. Yes, it's that good! Today, around 6:15 am, 11.16.25, people working at one of the best donut shops people came across! Thanks

Since my first visit on 12/23/25, I've made probably 4-5 more visits since and spent $250 (including merchandise). As someone whose favorite food is donuts, I truly cannot believe how dang good they are. They're always incredibly fresh, the icing is unlike any other donut, the toppings are fresh. Reasonably priced for a premium product. The customer service is always excellent as well. The employees always go out of their way to make sure that any questions are answered and help as much as they can in the decision making process. Every single employee is always kind, caring, and understanding. Special shoutout to Ace for a great conversation and homely attitude. The magic from Voodoo has cast a spell on me. I've been hypnotized and don't plan on snapping out of it anytime soon. Can't wait for my next visit to Voodoo and each subsequently. They never disappoint.

Demonically delicious confections provided by superbly hospitable service in the heart of classic Hollywood!

From my numerous visits to Voodoo Donuts, this experience stands out as the best one I've had. Natalie, the staff member, provided exceptional service. We discussed the trending donuts and she shared her personal favorites. Her demeanor and bubbly aura made today's visit truly special. (Plus I love the Homer donut)

Saw this place and got to have some unique donuts. Been to the original one in Portland and one at the universal walkway and now here in Hollywood, WOW!!! located right on the corner of Melrose and La Brea Ave - not hard to miss, especially it's right next to the famously Pink's hot dog. Parking can be a pain but they do have their own parking lot, a small one that is, there are street parkings or other parking lot that you can steel for 5-10mins. The place is such a cool vibe in pink color that is. Love the retro decor but spacious, clean, and well organized. Staff are friendly, super nice and funny too. The donuts decoration is unique and one of a kind for sure...they do have a rolling glass showcase to displace their available donuts. And yup I got the "slong" one too. (Good enough for 4 people)...good, fully and great filling donuts place.

Hot and new in Melrose, Voodoo Doughnut is known for their themed doughnuts. I got a few classic glazed ones paired with their weekly special pumpkin ones. I also added some doughnut holes and they were delicious! Love the general decor from the exterior to interior. The staff are super kind and delightful to chat with.

Amazing donuts! Leo at the front was helpful and gave some solid donut recs! These big boys are as tasty as they look.

Happy another Voodoo location opened in LA! I've actually only been to their spot in Austin but remembered how good it was and see by this location before work to grab some donuts for my team. I did the Voodoo Dozen which a great mix of fun donuts for everyone. This location has a decent sized parking lot and was very easy/quick to get in and out of.

A friend delivered Voodoo donuts for our bachelorette party and it was just the poolside treat we needed. The donuts are very sweet and heavy, I prefer less sugary donuts - but I do like how they have unique and fun flavors. Would order again for a special occasion / gathering.

Affordable vegan donuts and nice staff that explained the menu. Every donut is vegan but some toppings may be non vegan. Worth the hype. I ordered the apple fritter, classic and glazed donuts. All made fresh daily. I like the decor and theme.

They have some fun flavor combos for sure! And they're quite friendly, willing to explain all the different donuts before you order. Fun combos aside, they're just donuts, I don't fully get the hype. My daughter got the MCR donut and she was happy. I got the banana cream and was a little disappointed, it's fake banana flavor. I guess I had banana cream pie envisioned. Fun to try because it's famous. Pretty much just a donut though.

Stopped by for a quick sugar fix and was not disappointed. This place is wild in the best way. Neon pink signs , funky merch, and doughnuts that are anything but boring. Tried their Double Chocolate and Chocolate Cake doughnuts both were rich, fudgy, perfect if you like your sweets with a side of chocolate overload. Big shoutout to Daniel for being super helpful and welcoming. Solid stop if you're in the mood for something sweet and a little over the top.

Stopped in here over the weekend for a few donuts. Team was very friendly and offered up suggestions. Donuts were decent--lots of variety. Bonus points for having a parking lot in this neighborhood.

SO many options! You really can't go wrong! It's NOT a matter of what's good! It's a matter of what calls you! The guys there were super friendly and quick! The pink with neon lights accents felt like a cool little club vibe! They the doughnuts on spinning displays and it just makes your head turn with all the different flavor combos! It makes you wanna try one of everything! Coming here to get a doughnut to accompany your morning coffee, or late night to feed the munchies! It's a GREAT option to feed the soul!

The wife enjoyed the doughnuts at the Portland, OR location so she suggested we check this place out. Tried the ODB and Butterfingeting. Quite honestly, wasn't impressed with either one of them. They were messy to eat (left crumbles on my jeans) and they were overly sweet for my taste. Would rather go to Randy's for a gourmet donut.

Placed a DoorDash order for 7 donuts this morning, but couldn't write in any notes. Called and spoke to Billy and told him it was for an anniversary surprise and to package it nicely. He was so kind and not only did as I asked, but included some extras as well! So sweet. This is my 3rd order with them in the past year, and every time they go above and beyond. Thank you!!!

Colorful, quirky, and impossible to ignore, Voodoo Doughnut in Los Angeles feels more like a candy shop than a donut stop. The display is packed with a huge selection of creative and fun donuts, from wild cereal toppings to playful shapes that make you smile before the first bite. Flavors are sweet, soft, and satisfying, with plenty of options for classic lovers and adventurous snackers alike. The vibe is lively, the staff keeps things moving, and the whole place has a playful energy that makes it stand out from typical donut shops. Prices lean a bit high, but the novelty and variety make it worthwhile. It's the kind of spot that turns a simple dessert run into something memorable and worth sharing. Definitely a place to revisit with friends soon.

My friend and I went to voodoo for the first time and loved it!!!! Not only the place is extremely well decorated, the donuts are delicious. Adrien helped us out and was a rockstar!!! We had so many questions and he answered everything in a friendly manner. He left a remarkable impression. Voodoo needs to go to Belmont Shore in LB!!!! Highly recommended

First the good stuff. Voodoo on Melrose has phenomenal service. Everyone was so warm and welcoming and happy to make recommendations. The place itself boasts great aesthetic and their signature pink packaging is great branding. I love how the donuts are displayed in a playful manner and the decorations are top notch. That being said, the donut itself I did not enjoy. I tried Voodoo years ago in Portland and remember enjoying them. I've tried some of the crazier flavors before, so I decided to keep it simple with a powdered sugar donut. Unfortunately, it was incredibly oily. In fact that was the dominant taste. Maybe it was a fluke, but as a donut fiend, I was disappointed.

First time here, being greeted by staff member Ari, she was so wonderful to deal with explaining all the different type of donuts offered. Ari's service incredibly appreciated and amazing. The ambiance casual yet fun and colorful. We ended up picking our own donuts to our liking vs. the packaged dozen that is offered. So, one we got home and poured a nice cold glass of milk - we did our tastings. Yummy describes them for the most part (are they the absolute best, no) but they beat most any other donut shops. I will say any "filled donuts" they are not skimpy on the filling which is a great plus. Of the many donuts we tried, the Buttermilk bar was our least favorite. On the Nasty Side, they have a Big donut called "Cock 'N Balls" filled with cream and this donut is definitely for all of those seeking SIZE or like BIG things !!!

The donuts look amazing and appreciate the creativity. Old Dirty Bastard- Plenty of Oreos and love the flavor, would order again. Portland Creme- Plenty of crème inside and good. Memphis Mafia- Good although I'd love more peanut butter and cinnamon. Buttermilk Bar- Didn't met the expectation, wouldn't order this again. Maple Creme- Love the taste of the creme. One thing I thought was the dough would of been a bit more airy/fluffy regardless would come back. Ari was GREAT! Her suggestions, relatability and honesty made the visit pleasant. Great experience! I love the pink, great vibe inside, neon lights with cute sayings. The place is clean, walk up counter, no inside or outside seating and onsite parking. Also cute merch.

I've heard so much hype about Voodoo over the years and was so excited to try this out. Sadly, I found it mediocre and nothing special. Below is what I tried: Old Fashioned - 3 1/2 Stars. On the smaller side, didn't taste that fresh. Blueberry donut - 3 stars. Nothing special here. Chocolate w Peanuts - 2 1/2 Stars. This was rather dry and lacked any richness of flavor. Donuts w Sprinkles - 3 stars. Same as the others, nothing special. Homer Simpson Donut - 3 1/2 Stars. Best donut of the 1/2 dozen. A classic pillowy donut with pink frosting and sprinkles. In a city like LA that's full of amazing donuts this does not stand out and I found nothing special about this place, in addition to the donuts not tasting fresh.
