Donna's

Donna'sOne of my favorite neighborhood bars in all of LA County. The manager, Erin, and her staff ('Rel, Lisa, Deb et al) provide great service to customers old and new. Strong inexpensive drinks (my Bombay Gin 'n Tonic is less than $9), sports on several screens, and occasional food make this a very pleasant way to spend an afternoon or evening. It's a sports bar, with lots of Dodgers and Lakers fans, Rams and Clippers too, even a few Raiders fans will come here for games. There's a regular who's a Niners fan - don't forget to ask him about the 2024 Super Bowl. $2 off shots for touchdowns & homeruns by the home team. Very diverse crowd, representative of Gardena. Several older customers during the day, then it skews much younger in the evening. There's a pool table, several dart boards, you can play keno and the lottery at the bar. They occasionally have a dj on weekends and a karaoke night during the week.Saturday and Sunday days are swell times to spend here. Customers occasionally bring food to share with everyone. The Saturday through Monday day bartenders (Lisa, Rel & Erin) are great to hang with. If you're a regular, they'll remember your drink as soon as you enter the bar.There's parking in back, and most people enter the bar from the back. Open every day until 2 am. Definitely stop by if you're in the area.

Donna's is the best local bar in the southbay! You can't go wrong with any bartender there, they are all great and very welcoming anytime I'm there. I love coming during Lisa's shifts, she always has amazing customer service and is friendly to everyone I bring here. She also has customer potlucks, so if you're looking for a place to eat and drink Donna's is the place !!

4++ kind of a locals/dive bar, and I mean that in the best way possible. Good options for entertainment. Like the jukebox and dart boards. Decent selection of spirits and beer. The prices are great here and the service is very friendly. Oh and you also get free popcorn! I came here relatively early on a Friday night with some folks who grew up in the area. So it was really chill and I really like the vibe here. I was told it can get really busy later in the night. The drinks were reasonably priced and you get two dollars off shots when the Dodgers get a home run! Gotta love it. I really like this place and I definitely would love to come back if I'm in the area.

I had told my friend to pick a spot for some late night drinks and he picked this spot. At first, we rolled up and the entrance was in the back. I haven't been to a dive bar in a while and I loved the layout of this place. They had a good selection of both beers and cocktails they can make. The two girls behind the counter were super friendly but should also check on the people at the counter more. There pool and a juke box for a good time to hang out. We came here on a Wednesday night and there was some people but not a lot. I've been in the area all my life but never noticed this spot! If you're looking for a super chill bar to hang out with a group of friends this is the one to come to.

Donna's has the best women's restroom. My cousin told me their restroom was nice for a dive bar and I thought nothing of that comment until I went to use it and was transported to Hawaii! If you identify as a lady, you should check it out. There's no food and parking is around back but it's limited, but that shouldn't deter you from visiting. I've found parking on the street before. I'm not even a fan of bars and I don't even live close by but I love the vibe here and the music! The times I've been here (mostly Friday's) they play 90's/early 200's R&B/Hip-Hop and it's a fun time. Relly is my favorite but Lisa, Jade and Kai are all great bartenders and keep everything running smooth! The regulars are also really cool as well and this bar is really diverse which I think is another factor as to why it's a great spot.

Amazing service!!! Great place to see all of the sports events. Drinks are amazing!!!

Came here after an event nearby. Donna's has such a vibe. I love it. It has all the staples of a dive bar:Beer, shady (but very polite) regulars, very dim lighting, and pool tablesPLUS: Free PopcornTip: the entrance is in the back. Don't wander around like we did trying to open facade doors.

The Gardena equivalent of Cheers, where everybody knows your name whether it's your first or 100th visit. Karaoke on Tuesday nights, potlucks on Saturdays, whatever the occasion, Donna's is the place to be! Pool, darts, TouchTunes jukebox box. Make sure you visit Lisa Thursday and Saturday afternoons as well as Tuesday, Wednesday, and Sundays!

This local Dive Bar is the place to stop by in Gardena. Everyone is welcoming and the bartenders are amazing. Especially Lisa she is always tentative to customers!!

Lived in the Southbay area for so long and never went to Donna's! Man what a great place! Love this bar, great vibes and drinks! Staff and other patrons are cool!
