The night before my daughter's birthday lunch, my daughter hit me with a last-minute request: she wanted flan instead of a cake. My first thought was Porto's, but they only offer individual portions, and I needed a whole flan big enough to feed 12 people. After searching online and calling around during our dinner, we found the Flan King of Hollywood. He had great reviews, so we decided to take a chance and order a classic flan. I am so glad we did because it completely exceeded our expectations! Without a doubt, this is the best tasting, perfectly dense, and textured flan in Los Angeles. Drool. The customer service was also pitch perfect from start to finish. Ordering was totally trouble-free, and the communication was great. We called and texted a few times as we were approaching the pickup spot, and he was incredibly friendly. The King even went out of his way to throw in a little personal flan just for the birthday girl--such an amazing and thoughtful touch. My only minor constructive feedback would be to improve on the packaging. That lovely, tasty caramel sauce leaked out of the container provided, which soaked the bag and made things a little sticky. The pickup spot in Hollywood was interesting. Honestly, it almost felt like we were picking up something from a dealer. The King approached our car, we did a quick cash-for-flan exchange through the window, and we were on our way with the goods. If you need a crowd-pleasing flan, don't hesitate. Flan King is the real deal! read more

The Flan king deserves more than 5 stars. These flans are absolutely delicious! I was lucky that I was able to get a few flans for New Years Eve, I had an original, sweet potato and coffee.

For those of us that are coffee lovers, you must try the coffee flan....it has the perfect amount of coffee flavor. I will definitely get another one soon.

My wife is extremely picky about flan. We live in NY and she cannot find a flan that meets her standards. On a chance encounter while visiting LA, I ordered from Flan King. It was stunningly delicious, delivered to our location within 2 hours, and the owner is friendly. Now we order whenever we're in town and on some occasions we order and have it shipped across the country. BEST FLIPPIN FLAN! read more

All of the different flavored flans are so delicious and creamy! My family and I always enjoy having the banana flan at our family gathering. Must try! read more

Let's start with flavor, because that's what we all care about... this flan is the real deal. My Dominican aunts were VERY happy when I brought this over for family dinner - they even thought I made it! The flavor is authentic, beautiful texture, the consistency is a bit denser (which I love), sweetness level is just right and the color is beautiful. The glaze is lighter in density than what I grew up eating and it worked perfectly. Overall, delicately balanced. Customer service: Greg was responsive, set clear expectations and even added a bonus mini chocolate flan (I did not share that one and it was heaven! I've never had chocolate flan, I like tradition, but this changed my mind). He was amicable and prompt. I was in a time crunch to find the perfect dessert and he was able to accommodate me with a same day order for a family size flan. I will certainly be ordering again! read more

Best flan I've ever had. Delicious dessert. Great service. Highly recommend. 6 stars!

I've been buying flan from Greg for about 8 years now and should've given him a five star review back then. However, we just had another flan yesterday that we shared with friends and it reminded me of how consistently amazing his product is. I've had an occasional flan here and there since I tried Flan King's flan, but I'm always underwhelmed after trying them. It's wonderful that Flan King is still in business and I'm going to do my part right now put in another order. read more

Small business, great service, incredibly dope Flan. All hail the Flan King.

Flan is an open pastry or sponge cake containing a sweet or savory filling. A typical flan of this sort is round, with short crust pastry. Usually coated with sweet syrup. It is similar to a custard tart or a South African melktert. Thanks Wikipedia! Anyways - let's start with me saying - I DON'T LIKE FLAN! This I swear, good luck EVER getting me to even sample the tiniest bite, won't happen! This has always been the case yet a couple of years ago I was given an individual size Classic flan from Flan King and after letting it sit in the refrigerator for hours I reluctantly decided to give it a try. I spooned only the tiny tiniest bit out and really liked it! I thought it'd be a nice treat to have on Cinco de Mayo so I gave them a buzz to inquire where in Hollywood they were located and got to chatting with Greg (who is beyond fab! and also happens to know just about everyone I work with and has for nearly 20 years). Any how one thing turned into another and Greg swung by my office the next morning to deliver a Large Classic Flan ($30) We had to guard the thing we our lives, that's how much people love them! I've got to give Flan King 5 Stars for a couple of very simple and clear-cut reasons 1. I DON'T like Flan and I REALLY like this Flan :) so much so that I'll order it again and again and I'm absolutely certain I'll never try another because I don't like flan. 2. Greg is such an awesome guy and customer service is Top Notch! If you've gathered anything from this review, I surely hope it's that I don't like flan and I like this flan, if that makes any sense at all. These make an excellent dessert option if you are thinking a little outside of the typical ice-cream, cake, cupcakes, cookies thing and I highly recommend Flan King even to those who don't like flan ;) read more

Customer service was great. It was very easy to order and I enjoyed the flavors tried 3 different ones would definitely recommend. Thank you! read more
