★★★★★ 5.0 Xiao K · Dec 2025

The place was right across from the farmer’s market, so I decided to stop by and grab a donut. You can order outdoors through their window, which added to the experience. I tried their October-themed Booberry Lemon flavor. It was a donut filled with blueberry lemon zest whipped cream cheese, topped with a fresh blueberry. Honestly, I was amazed. It was incredibly creamy and fluffy, and not overly sweet, which was perfect for my Asian taste. The staff was kind, and they made an effort to engage with customers while waiting, which was a nice touch. The service was quick. I would definitely come back again for the donuts and foods on the menu.

Egg salad donuts are my new love language 😻. Everything I’ve tried here has been amazing and the service is so welcoming and friendly.

On Sundays, parking on the streets is free. Their rice porridge was delicious and highly recommended. It's perfect for winter. Love their donut was yummy, I love how the cream wasn't too sweet. The environment was absolutely incredible, especially during summer time with the market next to. Amazing. Love the food.

Incredible food, fantastic staff. Love the little window on the corridor near the farmers market. You can also access So Yen from inside the building and there are some tables in a lobby area. I would love to see a menu with a little more description of the offerings since many are unfamiliar to me - maybe a mobile menu with photos? I’ll definitely be back!

Congee and donuts are awesome!!! 5/5. Fluffy/pillow but also dense. I think I could go with less filling though. The egg sandwich donut wasn’t my cup of tea, didn’t like the combination of Flavours. Laab fries were okay. Laab seasoning goes better on protein. I’d come back for the congee and donuts. Have yet to try the hmong sausauge sandwich.
