Daly City Born, Bay Area Loved
It started with a small storefront, a serious love of chewy donuts, and a neighborhood that showed up hungry. The Mochi Donut Shop grew from there — one glazed ring at a time.
The Mochi Donut Shop | Our Story
A Storefront on San Pedro Road
We opened in Daly City — one of the most Filipino-American cities in the country — rooted in comfort food traditions the community calls home. Tocino, lugaw, sizzling pares with bone marrow.
Not Your Usual Donut
Mochi donuts are Japanese-inspired, ring-shaped, and irresistibly chewy. Flavors like ube sugar, matcha Oreo, guava coconut, and yuzu aren't garnishes — they're the whole point.
The Menu Goes Further
Korean-style corndogs — ramen-crusted, Hot Cheetos-coated, loaded with potato — sit alongside silog rice plates, crispy chicken, and banh mi logs. This is a kitchen that plays confidently at the crossroads of Asian street food.
Hospitality You Can Feel
Cooks come out from behind the counter to check on guests — a small gesture that makes a real difference. Regulars still call the shop "adorable."
Three Neighborhoods, Same Spirit
From Daly City to Inner Sunset to Clement Street, each location landed in a neighborhood with its own vibrant Asian-American food culture. Same handcrafted quality, same grassroots warmth — just more people to feed.
