Yelp users are excited about the new addition, which currently holds 4.5 stars out of eight reviews on the site.

Yelper J P., who reviewed Alameda Supper Club on March 3, wrote, "The ambiance was beautiful and relatively calm. The service was great and the food was superb, from the bread to the sides to the main entrees."

"The spaghetti and raviolis were amazing," added Yelper Justin R. "I was also inspired to try to endive salad because everyone around me was ordering it. My suggestion is to order some wine and bread, and wait to see what others are getting before ordering."

With a five-star rating out of 114 reviews on Yelp, Dōnatsu has been getting positive attention.

Yelper Taifha B., who reviewed the new spot on April 4, wrote, "I loved the ube donut! It was sweet, but not overwhelming. And the added walnuts provided a crunchy contrast to the soft, yeast based donut."

"I ordered the matcha pistachio rose doughnut and it was a knockout," shared Yelper Jessica Y. "The doughnut texture blew me away: fluffy, chewy and oh so indulgent. The matcha flavor effortlessly infused with pistachio nut and a subtle hint of rose made for an unforgettable taste."

Yelper John J., who reviewed the new addition on March 3, wrote, "Just had lunch here and I'm impressed. The organic salad bar — but more importantly their picanha, filet mignon and garlic beef — was excellent. Cooked to a medium rare and not to charred a crust."

And Castillo A. noted, "I was so amazed by this place. Great service, great food and great quality. Everything was delicious and I cannot wait to go back."

"These are the best doughnuts I have ever tasted," added Yelper Bridget W. "They also happen to all be vegan. Yes, even the chocolate. Yes, even the Bavarian cream. ... The fact that you can customize your own creation is simply madness."

Not only that, the staff is sweet and great at what they do. The sandwiches are fresh, savory, and affordable. This is coffee for the people!"

And Yelper Cynthia A. wrote, "Man oh man, this is a great place to go eat. Located inside the downtown library, there sammies are amazing! The olivey Italian (kitchen-style) is my favorite with a dirty chai on the side."
