    Ambiance: it's a hidden gem in the area, located in a small plaza right behind the gas station, small and packed inside, good for takeout orders Service: super friendly, patient with questions and packed food properly Food & Drink: simple menu on the wall for donuts, pastry and coffee drinks Chocolate Chips Donut - **** rich chocolate flavors, recommend Cinnamon Twist - **** very crispy and filled with chopped walnuts, recommend Donut Holes - *** complimentary with the order French Vanilla Latte - *** average taste Price: very affordable prices and less than $10 for the entire order

    Assorted dozen

    What a great find! If you're looking for a donut spot in Culver City, head on over to Donut King! Pre-ordered 3 dozen assorted donuts the day before for pickup and considering this was our first time, we were pleasantly surprised by the service. The donuts were ready on time and we paid when we arrived. One dozen for $15.99 and they even threw in some donut holes. The donuts were light, fluffy and not overly sweet. Yummy! Thanks, Christine!

    Half dozen donuts - SO GOOD!

    These are the BEST DONUTS in LA! Amazing price and really friendly people working there. My family and I went here for several years of my childhood in the early 2000s. Just revisited last month and then today and it's still SO DANG GOOD . Also had one of the best bacon egg and cheese bagel sandwiches from here, it's perfectly toasted and has a little bit of jalapeño in it if you ask for it, for $6.

    First time at Donut King on 1/6/24 and it won't be our last! The awesome reviews are deserving of this place. Yelper's got this one right! We were greeted with a nice welcome when my daughter and I walked in. This nice lady behind the counter was friendly and helpful. We started pointing at the delicious donuts for our dozen and a half order. The donuts looked fresh and delicious. It is a small place with a couple of tables for those who want to enjoy their donut and coffee onsite. The box of donuts were beautifully packaged. So glad we found this gem. We brought the donuts to my son's basketball game and everyone enjoyed every piece. They are located on Sepulveda and Washington Blvd next to a Thai restaurant. Parking available in the plaza and on the street as well. They close early so make sure to check Yelp for hours before driving over. They also have lotto tickets and scratchers for those who like to play. Next time, i'd like to try their boba drinks.

    We love Donut King. I am not sure if this is part of a franchise or just has the same name as other places. Regardless, it is great. The donuts are always fresh and the coffee is hot (very hot, beware). My grandson picked this donut shop on our way to a play. He is very picky about his donuts. He loved it. They have a great selection, their prices are great and parking is easy. It is located right off the 405 freeway on the east side of the street on Sepulveda near Venice Blvd. The service is fast and super nice. They also have a huge selection of drinks and some other items. This is so much better than some big chain. Go there. Cash only.

    Sprinkled deliciousness!

    By my second visit they had my order memorized. This isn't your typical chain like "Yum Yum," which I'm not knocking, but this is by far the best quality and pricing combination. Their latte's are delicious. The vanilla sprinkled donuts are superb. Love it.

    Background On Shop/Owners: Artelice Patisserie was founded by two brothers Farid and Saeed back in…read more2017 who wanted to share their passion for desserts and pastries. With their unwavering dedication to their customers and their commitment to using the best ingredients on the market, Farid and Saeed have raised the bar for quality seeking foodies in Los Angeles. By constantly challenging themselves to create the most delicious works of art, they have taken their love for the craft to a whole new level (From their website). Background On Visit: I was primarily going to RWT (Pokemon Card Shop) Collective on the second floor of the plaza, Something about the line and a average of 5 stars on their yelp page made me want to patronize the shop. So I did. Credit Cards: They're accepted. Restroom: Didn't see a restroom. :) Wait Time: Can be long. Luckily, I didn't wait long when I patronized the shop. Location/Parking: Located in a plaza on the NW corner of Sawtelle Blvd. and W. Olympic. There's a couple of shared 15 minute parking spots in the parking lot, paid parking structure, or meter parking along Olympic, Sawtelle, or surrounding streets. I did find a secret place with free 2 hour parking on the NE corner of Purdue Ave. and Olympic Blvd.. :) Ambiance/Decor: Neat ambiance with a few modern furnishings to sit, eat, and enjoy ones company. Service: Service was great! Tera (staffer) was very nice, attentive, offered great suggestions, and was quite informative about the shop. She also informed me that I was able to get two complimentary macarons. Patisserie Of Choice: 1) Blossom: Consisted of vanilla mousse, pistachio/red berries insert, pistachio crunch, and pistachio sponge. It was too pretty to eat, but I ate it anyways. So good and soo yum! 2) Roche: Consisted of hazelnut mousse, house made praline combined with soft caramel, hazelnut sponge. Taste like a Ferrer Rocher! It's very dense and sweet, but great to eat. Not something I'll have all the time. Macarons Of Choice : I got the Cookies and Cream and pistacio. They were both good. Artelice Patisserie For Thought: Wouldn't mind coming back. I'm coming for you almond croissant.

Chef Yang Soon began developing the reimagined classic Helms Bakery twelve years ago but could not have anticipated the huge changes that were to hit the dining landscape with the Covid pandemic. The decline of going out / dining out, changes in spending habits and the rise of delivery services made this Art Deco styled concept bakery financially unsustainable. Helms has a fascinating history. In 1932 their bread, Olympic Bread, was declared the official bread of the Olympic Games. This led to worldwide recognition. Delivery wagons, or coaches, brought bread, doughnuts and other baked goods to Angelenos' homes with their slogan, "Daily at Your Door." Helms was the bread that astronauts in Apollo 11 took to the moon. World Famous. I've sampled many items in my several visits (driving all the way to Culver City from the SF Valley.) *Breakfast burrito, $14 *Prosciutto/Persimmon sandwich, $17 *Coffee Cake, $5 *Cherry Pie slice, $12 *Nutella-stuffed cookie, $7 *Oat & Medjool Date cookie, $4.50 *Corn & Caramel cookie, $5 *Pistachio & chocolate cookie, $7 *Pecan Molasses, $5 On previous visits: *Olive Oil Cake *Corn Cake All of the above were made with high-quality ingredients, and thus sold at a high price point. All well-crafted and extremely delicious in my opinion. I will miss this place tremendously. I sincerely hope that Chef makes good on opening a Helms bakery in another location in the near future. I'll drive across town for that! R.I.P Helms original, 1931 - 1969 Helms reimagined, November 2024 / December 14, 2025
