Donderos' Kitchen — Restaurant in Athens-Clarke County Unified Government

We got the vegan pumpkin bread for $2.25, which was perfectly moist and delicious.

We got the gluten-free grit bowl with fried tomatoes, goat cheese and red pepper sauce. We added a fried egg for $1. The ingredients definitely made the bowl, because the grits themselves were very bland—nothing to write home about. Good amount of food though.

The french toast special was blueberry french toast. It was very sweet and was definitely not enough for a meal, which is why we we were glad we got the potatoes on the side.

The DK scramble on flatbread was delicious. It was a good amount of food, though I would have preferred more eggs in it.

I was going to get the quiche special (goat cheese, tomatoes and spinach) for my meal, but we decided to get it for the whole table, and I’m glad we did because it wasn’t a whole quiche! It was maybe 1/4 of a quiche, which was not advertised. For $5, that wasn’t worth it.

It was nice that I got a free coffee because I’m a teacher. They offer deals for teachers, police officers, firefighters, and others, so make sure to check out their website.

The place itself is cute—wooden tables and chairs, art for sale and cute little decorations. One plus was there was not wait for brunch on a Saturday morning!

We were all satisfied with our meals, but because some portions were small, I’m...

The only time I ever feel inclined to write a review is if I am blown away and want everyone to know- so here it is. Donderos is like a breath of fresh air from what feels like the never ending emergence of chain restaurant after chain restaurant. We are starved for distinctively exceptional places to linger long. Donderos is unique and they clearly take pride in the fact.

-The staff is very friendly and thoughtful -Plenty of space and seating -Great vibes and ambiance, especially for a slow morning or a place to go and get some work done (lots of natural light) -VERY reasonable prices $$$. The food and pastries are unique and fun, and you get a good amount of food for what you pay for -Everything on the menu is good, really no competition. They also have lots of fun pastries for fall (pumpkin, apple, cinnamon, etc), which I am a sucker for :D -They pay their employees double the minimum wage, so they don't have to rely solely on tips -Convenient location, right on Milledge

Love this spot so much. Really shows off the eclectic and community-based vibe that Athens is all about. Donderos I love you!!!...

Had a change of plans because our original plan/restaurant was closed. We looked for another great place for brunch and this place was listed.

Upon arrival we were not too sure what to do. As you walk into the dining area. So we walked through to what looked alot like a bakery set-up (so were are at the right place) and asked how things worked.

We ordered our food from the menus that were pointed out and took our flag and picked out a seat. Everything else was pretty much left to us to figure out, although we asked initially.

The girls at the front were slightly helpful but not totally. The food was cool. I had the fried green 🍅, with egg/cheddar over toast with pimento cheese with pepper jelly. Bae had thr scrambled eggs, potatoes and toast with grits. I will say the grits were to die for! 💘 them. If we come back it will be for the grits. Although I loved the fact the place is in an historic area of town. My experience was just okay. Unique...
