I finally tried Reigning Doughnuts; it's been on my list and my boodle and I were out with dear friends who suggested on a whim that we go! We were in South End wrapping up dinner and buzzed over the NoDa to give this place a whirl. I'm so glad we did.
The walk-up window is so adorable. They advertise that all doughnuts are made-to-order, and that is so true. I ordered a doughnut with vanilla icing and sprinkles. It was a hot, cakey, fresh experience with flavorful icing. My friend Rashim ordered a lemon poppyseed, their doughnut of the day on Saturdays. I had a small taste, and it was also delicious. Full of lemon flavor, fresh, hot. Javier ordered the cinnamon sugar, which we heard from another patron is one of the best. He devoured the whole thing before I was able to try it!
PLEASE NOTE: This is a walk-up window and there is no seating. Street parking is available but limited. I highly recommend reigning doughnuts if you need a fast, sweet treat on the go.
