Bottom Line

Verdict

We always enjoy the fried chicken at Astro. They also have a variety of donuts with interesting flavor combinations, with the Maple Bacon and Key Lime Pie donuts being our favorites. While some donuts weren't as impressive, we had a positive experience overall. We recommend ordering donuts online as they tend to sell out. A minor drawback was the cleanliness, which could be improved.
