  Having recently realized that Thousand Oaks Blvd. is a bit of a donut mecca, with roughly five donut shops squeezed within an 8 mile or so strip, I made the obvious decision to try them all. Star 1 – How was the service and atmosphere?With the owner of 15 years behind the counter, Donut Depot is your typical donut shop. While it appears as though a majority of the clientele just bop in on their way to work in the morning for a quick pick me up, there is both indoor and outdoor seating that makes for a comfortable experience. Star Granted.Star 2 – How were the portions relative to the cost?Opting to go for the Cinnamon Glaze, I spent $1.10 for what was, at the end of the day, a pretty small donut. Unfortunately, Stan’s, Gladstone, and Best Donuts all offer larger (and better tasting) donuts for under a dollar. No Star Granted:Stars 3/4 – How was the food?Whlie Donut Depot’s simple nature is appealing, it also makes it a tad bit disappointing as far as selection goes. Yes, they have all the basics, and the basics make the most sense if you’re trying to sell out your inventory by the end of the day, but it would have been nice to see a unique option here or there. As for my Cinammon Glaze? It was okay. Not the best donut I’ve ever had, but I suppose it was only a dollar. Single Star Granted.Star 5 – Would you eat it every day if you could?While I’ll certainly go back to try the Boba that I spotted on the menu as I was leaving, Donut Depot fell a tad bit short of my experience at nearby Gladstone’s in Oak Park and well short of Best Donuts just up the road. While it’s a decent stop for a quick and simple donut, I wouldn’t go out of my way to go to Donut Depot with so many other options nearby. No Star Granted.
