I stopped by Donut King 2 for the first time this morning. It was a pleasant experience. 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. read more

If you've ever wondered what it feels like to be spiritually tackled by a 24/7 donut shop, well.....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. read more

Oh Donut King II, where have you been all my life? All this time I've been going to Rainbow donuts. only to find a very limited selection most of the time. After an Angels game, we decided to try someplace different since we didn't want to pay about $23 for a bucket of chocolate chip cookies at the Stadium. I was looking on Yelp and realized I'd never tried Donut King. So what the heck. My wife and I drove over there and even though you can't see the selection inside, when we asked the clerk about what donuts were available,the selection was amazing On top of that, the donuts were delicious. Much fresher than what we've been getting at Rainbow. We've decided the Donut King is going to be our donut place of choice from this day forward. I'm so glad we decided to branch out and try something new. I recommend DONUT King to anybody in the area. The clerk working the night shift was really helpful and pleasant. He even added a couple of freebies since they had run out of one of our choices. It's probably because it was late and a bit slow but he didn't have to do that and he just made a new return customer so props to him. Prices are very reasonable anyway. No gouging here. The area is a little dark and quiet after 9pm so you'd probably be better off doing the drive thru than standing at the window. It seemed like there was adequate parking in back if you're there during the day. We can hardly wait to return and try some different donut than what we ordered that night. Definitely an independent shop that deserves support from the community. read more

This is just your typical no thrills donut shop, don't come expecting review crushing donuts but they were tasty for a morning treat. I came to grab 6 donuts left with 8! We got a lot of things, but the attendant was responsive and kind. She repeated our order out loud and made sure we knew what donuts we were getting and all of our random food editions. She even threw in the 2 extra! This is a drive through or walk up spot only. read more

If you are lazy and want convenience you don't even have to get out of your car to purchase some donuts or whatever treat you are in the mood for. They have a double drive thru at this old school gem. We picked out a lemon cheesecake donut and a cinnamon roll plus gambled by buying a Lottery ticket. The two sweet treats were fresh and delicious. read more

I'll admit, it's been a while but not so long that I've forgotten. I had to give this spot another chance. This time through the "Too Good Too Go" App and again, they didnt disappoint. It's a blessing that they are on the app as good as their donuts taste. read more

This place is awesome the best and freshest donuts around. Everyone is so nice here. Been coming here for many years. Thanks for all the donuts and memories!! read more

Tried their coconut rose milk tea and it was too sweet. Do not recommend without making adjustments (if possible). Very small parking lot and is also a drive thru. read more

I don't know why it took me so long to come here. An Asian American donut book and movie reminded me though. Open all the time with a drive thru and a giant donut up top, which is wonderful. They didn't have the biggest selection (mostly classics and no specialties) when we went in the evening. Apparently all the breakfast egg sandwiches come with bacon as a default and you can get even more meats. It was freshly made so it took a second. The sandwich was delicious on a croissant with melty cheese. Donuts came quickly. Raspberry jelly donut, blueberry and chocolate twist were all great. Milkshake was wonderful too. Seems like you might occasionally get an extra donut. Other reviews mentioned mold. My donut had discoloration on the bottom but it didn't grow over two hours so it's just discoloration (see picture) read more

Donut King 2 - The thing I suspect other people are calling mold. It didn't grow over twenty four hours, just appears to be discoloration - Donuts Near Me - Gardena, California

The food and service are quick and their prices are reasonable. I love this place. T lot is small and backs up during the morning rush but moves quickly. read more

This is my fav donut place by far but the only things that bothers me about them; they ain't give you no discounts for stale azz donuts like some places! When they are fresh; they are second to none. When they are stale; they still charge you top prices which is some BS! read more

I was draw in by the big donut sign, but it was just sort of ok. The building and the exterior is kind of gross. It's also not appealing that you can't see the donuts on display. It's mostly a drive through, but the windows are so covered with signs you can't even see the people that work there. Just a hand coming through a hole to take money give donuts. The donuts didn't seem that fresh or tasty. One of them was a chocolate old fashioned donut, but kind of tasted minty, which was strange. read more

Hard to compete with a 24/7 donut shop with a drive thru window. Not the greatest location nor the prettiest. Ordered two assorted dozens around 6pm and didn't expect much of a variety, but I was pleasantly surprised. Great selection, excellent service and fresh donuts. Maple is the way! read more

Love this place the red velvet is my favorite and I never had a bad donut always fresh service was good too

Love this place especially because it's drive thru and the only dessert spot in my area open late! I have gone here a few times and tried their donut holes and breakfast croissants which are pretty good. One time we went around 1 am and asked them what they had left or freshly made and they said butter bars. We went ahead and ordered a couple and they were the best!! They are best when warm and glazed. I love that sweet, salty, and warm combo. We were impressed! The times we have come here, we're always greeted with a great interaction. Sometimes they throw in an extra donut! I love it read more

Donut King 2 - Butter Bar. 10/10 especially when glazed and freshly made!! - Donuts Near Me - Gardena, California

my kids love glazed donut but they were not fresh and they couldn't eat ,krispy kreme is way better

What is going on in the world where 3 donuts (regular donuts) cost more than $5. As a chef & pastry chef I do enormous amount of pastries on a daily and it's not like this place is buying rare chocolate or vanilla. It's all comprised of flour, milk, eggs, sugar, yeast or baking powder, butter, and salt. So again why so high? Was a time you could come to this place and purchase 3 donuts and a small coffee for that amount. This was a cool go to spot but I know of 3 other locations that are just as good if not better that prices doesn't fluctuates but maintain prices in a minimal fashion. read more

I've been here for as long as I can remember and this place doesn't disappoint. Last time I was there I got some donut holes I think the chocolate ones? Well, they were delicious for sure. Another time I got a glazed donut also delicious. But also the ice cream here is sooooooo good! Specifically, the bubble gum ice cream. I don't remember a time where I went here and didn't get the bubble gum ice cream.. and thats because every single time I came I got it. The workers are nice and theres nothing to complain about. This place is a drive through, by the way, and it's not crowded. Very chill here. 5 stars deserved. read more

Great donuts! And they're awesome, they threw in a couple extra love this place and their service

This place has some of the best hood donuts that I've had in quite awhile. They're always fresh and gooey with just the right amount of icing. Their giant glaze is my favorite. It's enough for three people, but I admit that I ate that whole thing myself and enjoyed every minute of it. They have many donut choices, from the iconic glaze and maple bars to specialties like orange glaze cake and honey wheat cake. They also have ice cream in many flavors like strawberry cheesecake and matcha green tea. Ice cream can be made into sundaes and you can choose many different toppings like chocolate or caramel drizzle or sliced bananas or crushed Oreos. They also have muffins, croissants, cookies, fresh juices and smoothies, in addition to milk teas, iced coffees, and other drinks. Besides donuts, they offer breakfast and lunch options in the form of sandwiches and bagels. I've had the cheesy egg sandwich, which was delicious. I did take it home and added bacon to it for added pizzazz! The lunch options come with a bag of chips and a soda. I went there and completely forgot that I didn't have cash, but was very happy to see that they do accept visa, Mastercard, AMEX, and Discover. You can also get your lotto scratchers and tickets here! read more

Very rude and nasty Chhakvy N was the cashier her face was screwed up the minute I rolled my window down. I asked for a cup of ice water with my donuts, she walked off while I was talking. I asked again & she barked "We don't have that! Only bottled water". I said "Then add a bottled water". Wow. I will NEVER go back there. Horrible service read more

Top tier donuts and breakfast sandwiches. The coffee is okay could be stronger. The donuts are very good and soft the service is really good. Try the fruit punch or shakes with real donuts in it. read more

There is one older lady that always has a poor attitude. We're talking eye rolling no greeting or thank you. I was given 2 blueberriy muffins on my last visit that were harder than a week old biscuit. It would be my 5th visit over a 3 year period. Only to find out I have friends that were treated the same way. I'm done there. read more

Love that this Donut King 2 has not changed one bit. It's just as I remember from when I was a kid. The service is amazing. Everyone is polite and patient and always greets you with a smile. I've been hooked on their donuts and donut holes, but recently, the croissants are my new favorite. We'll, today I tried some amazing cookies! I got 4 cookies and I can not choose a favorite. I got Oatmeal, peanut butter banana, strawberry shortcake and chocolate mint. All I can say is OMG!!! So delicious and not once have I been disappointed! They're fresh, soft and the flavors really come through! I shared with my sister and she said that she liked the crunchy outside and chewy middle. These cookies won't disappoint. Sweet and so yummy. Thanks Jackie. read more

AMAZING. Really this is all I would put for here. Nothing else I can say that's better in words. I have never thought i would give a donut place a 5 star! The drive thru was fast and quick. I ordered 2 Glazed Donuts, 1 Cinnamon roll and ice coffee. Glazed donut $1 each - MUST TRY IF YOU HAVEN'T And i dont even like donuts but this please opened my eyes!!! (So warm and fluffy and soft like a cotton candy) Cinnamon roll - Could have been a little better but was still one of the best ive tried. (It was a little hard and not to warm) Coffee - eh. Its a donut shop so ill stick to reviewing donuts not coffee. If you must know? it was ok. I wish they had this place in Atlanta. I would so go there every day if i could. Must stop by when your in Gardena Ca. Don't just take my word for it, go try it out! read more

Checked the reviews on Yelp and decided to try since it wasn't too far from where I was. *Classic glazed donut: I'm a classic glaze lover! So I only try a glazed donut at any donut shops. Glazed donut ($1.25) here was a good size and very fresh. Not like fluffy but mixed with fluffy and a bit of chewy texture which I like! *Iced green tea: I ordered a iced green tea with boba and it was only $2.50 (as of 6/7/22) but it was just okay.. boba was not good at all. It's far from chewy texture that I normally get from other boba places. It's a jasmine green tea but didn't taste fresh like other tea places. However for the size of it, I guess it's a good price when you want something to refresh your mouth. I didn't like the boba at all so I just drank the tea. *Drive through and Walk up window only: I wish I can see their entire donuts in stock and presentation but there's only Drive through and walk up window. The day I went, there's some cars were at the walk up window so I was very confused which window I needed to go. Therefore there were 2 different lines for drive through and walk up window. *Menu: if you go drive through, I recommend to check their menu here on Yelp and know what you want. read more

Really good donuts Way better and cheap then Krispy kreams. Took some to my students and they loved them read more

A hard working family is always in here on duty so I try my best and support a local shop. They are located on the corner of Western and Marine and it has a landmark huge donut on top of the location. Their donuts are made in the morning so it is best to come around that time. The later in the evening , they may not have any special donuts. They rotate the special donuts all the time so each day is a donut that may be off menu. Just ask. People come here for other things besides the donut. They also have breakfast sandwiches made to order, as well as sandwiches for under $10. They also have ice cream scoops, shakes and coffee drinks! Best of all everything is drive through and they are open 24/7 to serve the community Lastly this is a great place to play Lotto as it is a lucky location read more

I went to donut king at 1 am and ordered two donuts with a croissant with supposedly sausage, ham and bacon with black pepper. I asked for no black pepper but unfortunately the croissant came with no meat at all. It came with eggs and PEPPER! No meat, I was so disappointed. The staff even confirmed it twice there will be no pepper. I only give it 2 stars because the staff was nice but didn't do their job correctly. read more

They have the best fresh donuts all day. I love there Ham and cheese croissants, perfectly cooked with that flacky crust. I'm telling yah the best. The apple Fritters are perfect, nice and crunchy on the edges and perfectly cooked in the middle. They also sell the best ice cream, coffee, teas and amazing homemade sandwiches breakfast or lunch freshly made all day and night. Oh and for you Lotto fanatics like me, they sell lotto tickets and scratchers Come check them out! read more

This place is a bit far for me to get to. However, whenever I know that my brother is planning to stop by after work. I would request a pastrami sandwich and their milk tea. I get it piping hot and the cheese just melts. One of the best places for sandwiches. Whenever they have their speciality donuts I go cookoo for it. It's not only cute, but delicious. read more

Pulled up to the window and I kid you not the woman working the counter was on a phone call and just kind of blended "can I help you?" into her sentence to the person on the phone. After a moment or two she actually bothered to look at me, and I asked for 1 maple bar 1 chocolate bar 1 plain cake 1 devil's food She repeated the order back correctly to me and slid away from the window. She returned in less than a minute and thrust a bag toward me while saying "3 dollars," and I gave her a ten and looked inside the bag while she got my change. 1 maple bar 1 devil's food That's it. She returned with my change and as soon as it was in my hand she turned to attend to a customer at the other window. I paused, processing what just happened. Should I wait until she notices I'm still there and ask her to complete my order? How annoyed/angry should I be? Especially since she repeated the order back to me and -still- got it wrong? In the end I just drove away, perplexed, annoyed, and disappointed that yet another place with shitty customer service is on my mental blacklist. Their standards may have fallen, but mine haven't, and I refuse to reward that sorry sort of behavior with my money. read more

Happy New year. Too bad it's not new donuts. I bought three via drive through window. On the road back home, I realized there was mold on the bottom of each donut. Greenish black dots that are certain to not be part of the donuts recipe and it's not melted chocolate, matcha or sprinkles. Very distinct mold spots. read more
