Came here one afternoon on the way to a customers and decided to stop and get a quick snack. For some reason I love apple fritter so decided to get it here. It was a pure drive thru, 2 lanes on the side and a counter in the middle for walkby orders. The apple fritter was good. Nice and crispy, some places have a kind of chewy middle where there is some more apple+dough kind of center, but this is just straight up crunchy. It was more to my liking but the thing is I need to come back and try other donuts before I can rate this higher. Overall this place is a 3.5 and can easily be a 4 if their other donuts were as good as the apple fritter i got. read more

Their donuts can be inconsistent at times but very good when done right. It seems most of the time I can depend on their consistency and quality but I've had their dough semi raw in texture, wasn't bad but not what I expected. The area can be rough late at night. I made the mistake of getting out of the car and ordering at the window (strangers come to you asking you to buy stuff for them). Interesting but I could do without it. If you use the drive through window it's not a problem. But note, there's this small side walk between you and the window, if you're not careful you can scrape your rims. Friendly young folks (are you like 15?) working there but they seem to know what their doing, definitely reminds you of older mom and pop places that was abundant years ago. read more

Their sandwiches are DELISH ! Better than Subway :) it's only $4.50 (no tax) for a sandwich, soda, and chips!! They have pastrami, tuna, roast beef, vegetarian, and a couple more. I regret not buying their sandwiches sooner ! They only take cash but they recently got an ATM machine right outside their main window :) read more

Donut King 2 - Huge cup of ice coffee for $1.50! - Donuts Near Me - Gardena, California

It's really rare to find a drive thru donut shop that has really good donuts and ice cream! Along with lottery tickets! Don't bother getting out of your car in this pandemic! My favorite on the menu is their PASTRAMI SANDWICH w/ a Diet Coke read more

I usually buy donuts when I go to the office but go to the same place. I wanted to try some place new and remembered this place. I parked in the back walked up to the window. I got a dozen of the regular donuts. They had some croissant donuts which were different the ones I had at other places. Theirs were shaped like regular croissants. I added a couple of them as well. When I got to my car, I ate one, then the other. They were really good. I should've went back for more, next time. read more

Gardena landmark. Legit family owned and operated Service is always over the top .. and yes they have the new special donuts

I've never had a stale doughnut from this place. Granted, I'm not going there daily for doughnuts, but I've had my share over the past five years, and their goods always taste fresh. I haven't tried anything else here other than the doughnuts, so I can't comment on the other stuff they sell here. Just watch your back. The area seems rather sketchy. You know you're in the hood, or in close proximity of the hood, when you see Kool-Aid and grape-flavored beverages on the menu. read more

Donut King 2 - The donut looms ominously over the street. - Donuts Near Me - Gardena, California

They have everything here including donuts, ice cream, sandwiches, & more! Service is really good too. I highly recommend! 5 stars

Amazing Sandwiches!! We've been coming here for over 15 years!! Pastrami/Roast Beef Sandwich Combo with a Cookies and Cream shake is my favorite! Don't pass up this absolutely delicious Gem!! read more

I love how cheap the sandwiches are, especially when it comes to getting a combo meal. We got a pastrami sandwich with chips and a can of soda for about $5. We also were able to buy the big scratcher sheet, which we ended up winning $50 from. The one who assisted us seemed a bit impatient the way she came off, but got our order out real quick. We ended up eating at home and the sandwich was pretty good for the price we got and I can't wait to try the other stuff their venue has to offer. read more

Found the place while diving to work. Has the best hm and cheese croissant with jalapeños. Wish they had their lemon bar as they say on the window. Looks like every time I'm there they never have them whether it's in the morning or at night. That's why I'm giving 4 stars other than that pretty good doughnuts.. and fast service! read more

Great customer service and very quick. Sugar donuts, buttermilk donut and donut holes were very good and not too sugary! Unfortunately my croissant was stiff and didn't taste that great. It wasn't even buttery :( read more

This donut shop saves my life. For some reason, I'm always in a rush to get ready for school every morning (maybe it's because i press the snooze button about 4-5 times before i actually get up), and sometimes i completely forget to eat breakfast or even grab a snack in the kitchen to shove in my mouth before i leave the house. On these lovely mornings, a quick drive to the Donut King 2 is the place to go. Their service is super speedy and their donuts are ALWAYS fresh. My favorite thing to order is the dozen donut holes.They're easy to eat because i can just pop 'em in my mouth and the bread is light and airy. Sometimes, I even get one or two extra if i'm lucky. Their coffee is nice and rich, too. read more

Gardena icon! While not as famous as the gigantor Randy's Donuts monster-donut-on-the-roof on Manchester by LAX, this monster-donut-on-the-roof location is surely one of the most famous local landmarks in the Gardena/Torrance/South Bay area. While it borders on some pretty sketch neighborhoods, it's generally not too bad even later in the evening (i.e. after a socialization and beverage "session" at Donna's across the street lol!) Definitely 24 hour convenient! Also very cool since it has drive up windows, and there's rarely a line of any significance. The workers are usually in a decent mood, and love to see their regulars. Not much else in the adjacent area though, so this is normally a stop for donuts and hit the road type of spot. Good croissants and sandwiches as well, so don't think this is some kind of one trick pony donut stand! Just south of here is where the interesting Gardena and Torrance food joints start. Don't go too much further north on Western though! Just some friendly advice to keep you safe ;) read more

Normally I will not patronize an establishment that serves food with a "B" rating from the health department. For reasons I really can't justify, I continued to frequent this donut shop. I guess because it is so close to my daughter's school, my wife and I found it convenient to get a coffee and a crumb cake from time to time. This morning we decided to do the same after dropping off our daughter and before going to the park to walk. As usual, I asked the young woman at the window for a decaf for my wife and a crumb cake for me. I handed her a $10 and waited for the changes. There were a number of cars behind me so I pulled in front of the store and looked at my change. To my surprised, I had only $2.95. I got out of the car and went to the window and told the young lady that I gave her a $10 but she only gave me less than $3 back. She right off the bat became defensive and insisted that she was not trying to cheat me. The older woman insisted also that I only gave them $5. I told them a number of times that I had only a $10 in my wallet and gave that to her for the coffee and donut. None of my assurance matter to either of them and I had to drop it and left quite frustrated. $7.05 for a weak coffee and stale donut. Yes, the donut was stale (that early in the morning). It is not good business to deal with return customers in that way. I was already wondering why I would stop now and then at a donut shop with a "B" rating. Now, I have no intention of ever returning because it was more important for them to not error on the side of the customer for $5. For those of you that are not aware. A "B" rating from the health department is not just one point less than best. A B C, ratings are like earth quakes. Each letter makes a big difference. A B rating can be anything from a dirty mop of roaches, rats, hair and other bugs in food to who knows. If you see a C rating, be scared and keep going! In a way, I am glad this happened. I have never entered an establishment with a "B" rating and shouldn't have ever bought anything from this Kings 2 Donut. Now, I never will again for sure. $7 didn't break the bank but I don't know any wise person not mind being ripped off for any amount of money. read more

This place is disgusting. I ordered a breakfast croissant And it tasted horrible. This place should get checked out by the city. I had to throw away the sandwich. Really disappointed. read more

My go to donut place! They are open 24 hrs! They have fresh donuts everytime I go here. A must try is their croissant donuts, their old fashioned, and their donut holes. They also have really good sandwiches! Oh and don't forget to try the rocky road milk shake!! read more

I'm an apple fritter girl and their fritter is not as delish as Randy's. However, their croissants are delish and their prices are very reasonable as well. So we will return. Just not for apple fritters. :) The morning crew is friendly and efficient. The line moves quick and that's a plus. Cash Only. read more

Yum yum!! The only issue I had was the wait! It's a drive through so I expected it to be a little quicker but the food, coffee, and doughnut were amazing! Also ordered a water and got a huge bottle! The girl at the window was super sweet as well:) Definitely going back! read more

I would give them negative stars if I could! How are they still open? First the woman there was rude then they got the order wrong which I just took as is. I get home and after a few bites the bacon fell out and this is what I found. Black mold throughout the bacon and it was brown and just looked super old. When putting this together how do you not notice this?? This is insane!instantly felt sick. read more

CASH ONLY. Huge menu to pick from, and I can't tell you the last time I spent $0.70 (cents) on a mind blowing donut!!! Definitely a chill spot to check out, and they're open late! read more

Perfect place to fullfill ur pregnancy cravings all aroynd the clock ! Their bubble gum icecream is the best hamds down

Fifth time I've came here when I'm in the area visiting a friend. The donuts always taste amazing! They're super fluffy and melt in your mouth! Also, the workers are always super kind, friendly, and helpful. I remembered one of the girls helped my friend figure out which donut (French crueler) she was looking for.. LOL. Anyways, definitely recommend giving them a try! read more

Love this place, when I get a craving for a late night snack it's my goto place. The lady is so nice too. Wish they took credit/debit though. They have great sandwiches too. All at a great price. Well worth the drive to the Big Donut... read more

TERRIBLE! I was out craving donuts and ice cream , and I of course pulled this place up on yelp . I wish I hadn't . I was waiting because the lady was doing who knows what in the back . Finally she comes up , and I give her my order ( medium butter pecan and pecan praline ice cream) . I wish I would have takin a picture of the BULLSHIT she sat on the counter . A very smallcup with ice cream filled to the rim and covered with plastic wrap! What in the entire hell ?! I asked the lady if it was a medium , and she IMMEDIATELY copped and attitude. I asked if they had bigger cups . She then got a larger cup and sat the smaller cup inside INSTEAD of putting the ice cream in the larger cup to begin with. I would NEVER go back ! They didn't even have donuts. Old stale left over donuts! Donut King? DONUT JESTER CAUSE THIS PLACE WAS A JOKE ! That lady was RUDE! read more

Two stars for getting order mostly right...i got a simple glazed which was okay nothing spectacular , but grabbed a few cookies for daughters and ...uhmmm....yeah I know 2 day old cookies when I taste them....there was NO WAY at this hour (1045a) these cookies should have tasted anything but fresh...so yeah, if they will cut corners on a cookie then what else are they cutting corners on, especially being 24hours...YUCK! I will drive to Randys next time read more

I go here often because it's on the way to work and it's down the street from my barber shop. This is the first time I'm yelping this place and I must say it's really good. I've never had to wait long in line and all there food has been fresh. I usually get the ham or turkey and cheese croissant which is my favorite. read more

If you don't already know- Donut King 2 is as good or better than world famous Randy's in Inglewood. Serious. Having worked next to Randy's for over a decade, and lived next to Donut King- I know them both too well. Check it out- you'll see. They are top notch quality donuts. And they're sandwiches are really good. But donuts. read more

Donuts are my happy food. Thus, this place is my happy place. The area's kind of shady but there's two lanes for drive-thru, which doesn't take longer than five minutes to get taken care of so you won't be there long. Donuts are cheap; if you get a sandwich, it's the best deal ever (sandwich + soda + chips for $4.50) even if the sandwich isn't the best tasting one. I usually grab a couple of donuts here while I get my sandwich, and the owners usually throw in a couple of free donuts if I order more than 3-4 so you're definitely getting more than your moneys' worth if you buy here! I especially like the maple bar and the donut holes. I think it's $1.25 for a dozen donut holes or something to that effect. The owners are really nice but not very talkative, so don't hold that against them. Overall, good place. I like the donuts (especially the free ones) and the sandwich deal! (The only thing that sucks is that this place is cash only.) read more

Sorry second time I have been short changed by the Thai ladies? that work there...wtf???.. I don't condon the consumption of alcohol....But I have been told that you can get a gigantic ham and cheese crescent roll and two chocolate donuts for $3.50.....It sounds insane but I have it on very good authority that it's true....and it's delicious...so they tell me.... :-) read more

The employees here are very rude, I wouldn't suggest coming here. I ordered something simple - two donuts and a water and the man helping me couldn't even manage to be cordial. He gave me a burned red velvet donut with no frosting. He hand picked it, so I know it was no accident. Do better, Donut King. read more

My My My, SO one day my boyfriend and I hit like three different donut stores, because I wanted to have kind of a taste test (or I just wanted an excuse to eat donuts all day haha) but anyways this was one of our stops. We called ahead to see when their buttermilk bars were fresh, which was at around five the lady said so we hit up the other donut stores first and we arrived right on time, and so did the fresh buttermilk bars and the rest of the half dozen (+2 free!) The whole box was warm! I was so excited. So when we finally sat down to eat them (it seemed like it took forever to get home!) I was slightly dissapointed. The buttermilk bars were HUGE and they were warm and looked delicious, but there was kind of a weird flavor to them. Like the oil in the fryer needed to be changed, sort or flavor, a weird after taste. I don't know how to explain it. Like dirty fry oil i guess..I asked my boyfriend if he noticed but he thought they were delicious, so maybe it was just my buttermiIk bar snobbery kickeing in. Regardless think I would go back to try them again since they were soooo fresh! but for now three stars! read more

Dropped by this place for a quick donut and coffee. It's pretty generic. Not bad, and not good either. Standard cheap donut shop.

I've been buying my donuts here since I moved to Gardena 5 years ago and their donuts have always been alright. However, I just came back from a late night run where I bought donuts and a hot chocolate. When I opened my hot chocolate to let it cool down, I saw something black floating on the surface. I immediately got grossed out and called my sister to confirm my suspicions and low and behold...it was rat poo!!! I'll never go there again!!! Beware!!! read more
