I stopped by Donut King 2 for the first time this morning. It was a pleasant experience…read more They have a drive thru, which is very convenient. I was here for no more than a couple of minutes. I ordered half a dozen assorted donuts and a dozen donut holes. When I got home, I noticed that they gave me 8 donuts. That was really nice of them to throw in a couple of donuts for free. I immediately scarfed down a chocolate bar donut (they're those long chocolate glazed donuts) and the donut holes. They were both airy, fluffy, and delicious. I was craving traditional donuts and the donuts here really hit the spot.

If you've ever wondered what it feels like to be spiritually tackled by a 24/7 donut shop,…read morewell.....Donut King II in Gardena has you covered. There's a giant donut hovering over the entrance like a sugary UFO, the drive‑thru is open at all hours, in both directions depending on which driveway you enter, and the staff has the kind of friendliness that makes you question whether... do people even sleep at these early morning hours, including myself. lol I rolled up at 2 AM and the night cashier greets you like you're the hero returning from battle. They're patient, friendly, and sometimes slip in an extra donut like a pastry‑based blessing, especially after purchasing several assorted donuts. Honestly, if emotional support donuts were a thing, this place would be licensed. The classics hit exactly how they should. The raspberry jelly, a fruity explosion. The blueberry?, a polite, sweet hug. The chocolate, well so comforting. A spiral of happiness. And the variety of donuts is so warm, glazed and sweet. Basically the Beyoncé of pastries. It doesn't just taste good, it changes you. The drive‑thru is clutch. Whether you're craving donut holes at midnight or a croissant at sunrise, Donut King II is the only dessert spot in the area that's always awake and ready to enable your sugar habits. Donut King II is the chaotic‑good hero of Gardena: friendly staff, fresh donuts, that slap, and a drive‑thru that understands your nocturnal lifestyle. Ambience- there is nothing fancy about this place. This place is a grab and go. Drive through or walk up. Expect a line sometimes, but trust, it's worth it. Miguel C.

Stopped by this gem after getting picked up from work with some family…read more Immediately liked the place. I got a croissant ham,cheese, jalapeno: Have yet to reach the jalapeno but it's good! The bread is full and the cheese melts in your mouth. I order a banana boba but she misheard me and made a Vanilla boba wanted that banana but im not mad about it! The vanilla tastes as if it as a hint of a coffee bean flavor, very delicious! We all love our orders. We also got a donut deal for getting boba. We've deemed this place our new spot for whenever we come up north. The woman seemed to be the only one working. Hopefully solo shifts become less for her bc right after we came in, a line eventually formed, and it was three of us ordering together. If you're ordering together, make sure to not switch around orders. Wishing the best for this business!

I usually buy my juices from this donut shop, but unfortunately, Jenny's repeated rude behavior has…read moremade me stop coming here. When I recently called to place an order for two juices, she answered, heard me speak, kept saying "hello," and then hung up. When I called back, it sounded like the phone had been left off the hook. This was not the first uncomfortable interaction. On another occasion, I walked in to order juice, and instead of greeting me, the first thing Jenny said in a rude tone was, "Next time, call." She also looked visibly annoyed. I didn't mind waiting and would have understood if she had simply explained that the juices would take a few minutes. I've also witnessed customers waiting a long time without being acknowledged, even though the employees clearly saw them. Some eventually walked out because no one took their order. I really liked this place and its juices, but customers should not be made to feel like an inconvenience. If juices are advertised and sold here, customers shouldn't be treated badly for ordering them. Better customer service and a more respectful attitude are definitely needed. Unfortunately, I will not be coming back or recommending this place to others.

I ordered a small coffee and a regular croissant that should only cost $2, the same combo I always get, but the cashier added some "strawberry" item for $4 and said "it's the same price for everything." Definitely not true, since I was just here a few days ago and paid $7. This time it came out to $9. This isn't the first time it's happened and I let it slide the first time. Total rip-off. Be careful, and honestly, save your money and go somewhere else.

I got a variety of donuts to share with friends, but I came to get the cronut. It was very fluffy and I love the dusting of cinnamon. Overall, pretty standard for donuts, but that's not a bad thing. There's really only so much you can do with a doughnut, and as long as it's not stale, or has funky texture, then a variety of flavors are all you really need. The doughnut prices are reasonable as well.

The good: I got 3 different cronuts (classic, cinnamon and…read moreNutella filled), a ham and cheese croissant, a danish muffin, a breakfast sandwich and a tomato and cream cheese bagel for Father's Day breakfast. I liked the classic cronut a lot as well as the cinnamon one. Their donut box with the plastic window was nice and makes for a nice giftable item or potluck dessert. The bad: The Nutella cronut was a bit over the top and too decadent with the about of Nutella inside. The iced coffee was $8.50 (but it was 20 ounces). They didn't have other sizes at least from Door Dash. The interesting: The coffee tasted like a Vietnamese coffee and was super strong. Drinking half made me feel wired and nauseated.

During my freebies birthday run yesterday, I was planning on going to Old Ferry Donut after picking up a boba next door, only to find the shop closed. ＼(｀0´)／ Known for unique flavors & vibrant retro-pop 70s branding (cute hamster mascot with bold orange & brilliant blue colors; it's featured on 2-/4-donut boxes), this Korean-inspired premium donut shop originated in Seoul a decade ago before expanding to several S. CA locations, opening in Torrance a couple of years ago. OFD's donuts are popular for its rich creams & chewy dough; Butter Pistachio & Crème Brûlée are just 2 of their signature flavors. I was going through a donut phase when I initially stopped by Old Ferry Donut. Large windows let lots of light in, & once you step across the threshold, you're hit with a strong K-pop vibe & loud music. They even had a collab with SEVENTEEN last fall during their tour with 2 flavors: Marble Strawberry & Blue Coconut! Unlike the regular mom & pop's or commercialized donut shops, they don't offer a discounted 1/2 or full dozen box. After asking what's their most popular picks, I chose Butter Pistachio & Crème Brûlée, & added Lemon Poppyseed & Raspberry Ring for myself, Cookies & Cream & Boston Cream for the kiddos. Service was alright... I didn't need a sales pitch, but would like some info on the donuts to make an informed decision since they're at a premium price even though they're not "freshly made" (every hour or less) like SD&C just down the street. The Butter Pistachio is a major hit... fluffy & light, a slightly chewy yeasty donut stuffed with a mildly sweet whipped pistachio cream filling & topped with a salty-sweet buttery streusel... how can you not be addicted? And totally worth it! Crème Brûlée is also popular for its delicate, crackly caramelized sugar crust & airy brioche dough that's filled with a rich vanilla custard. Good flavor, but maybe on the older side? Since it's been sitting for awhile, it lost that fresh fluffy texture & was kinda dry. I really liked the Lemon Poppyseed; it's right up there with Butter Pistachio. The lemon glaze is just the right amount of sweet & tart, & the donut was fresh & fluffy! The Raspberry Ring is pretty good, matching that sweet & tart of Lemon Poppyseed, but I like the citrus zing of the latter more. What's different is the former has a raspberry jam filling in addition to a glaze & the latter is just a yeast donut with fruity glaze. Kids didn't say much about Cookies & Cream & Boston Cream... I figure you can't go wrong with these flavors. The filling might have been a bit much as I saw the cream oozing out of the donut & onto my LO's face & shirt. His sister was slightly better at containing the custard blob. LOL With premium prices, It's debatable if Old Ferry's donuts are worth it... quality, freshness, & size. Hmmm... I like them & their creative flavors, but they're a tad too sweet & not as "fresh" in comparison to SD&C. Sad to see Old Ferry Donut permanently gone from the South Bay, but they still have locations in San Gabriel & Buena Park if you're willing to take a drive. Recommended: Boston Cream $3.95 Butter Pistachio $4.95 Cookies & Cream $3.95 Crème Brûlée $4.95 Lemon Poppyseed $3.95 Raspberry Ring $3.95

Order: Classic glazed--light, not too sweet, filling. Service: Sweet and efficient. Good for: Grab-and-go (seating mostly empty). Why it's trending: Fun branding + community energy = viral charm. Bottom line: Perfect stop if you're nearby and need a donut with personality.

For an establishment that charges $5-$8 per donut, you'd think they'd have the funds to fix the AC if not for the customer experience but at LEAST the workers.

The flavors are great and really unique which i like. They have a seasonal weekly flavor and the service is always nice. It has plenty of parking and there's seating on the inside. I also really like how there are samples if you go in the morning which has persuaded me to try some new flavors I wouldn't have gotten. Yes its a bit pricey, but definitely worth it as the taste is amazing. My only feedback is on Too Good to Go orders. PLEASE allow there to be a separate non-meat/vegetarian option. Since if you order through the app, sometimes they may have a maple bacon donut which I don't eat meat so anything that donut is touching I also throw out which is a waste.
