Amazing Pinatas

I am sorry to have to review them poorly today, but I went in this week to order my yearly piñata and was told they may not be able to do it in time (3 weeks notice). I asked for the manger Lorena to call me and let me know for sure. After calling her 3 times since the beginning of the week I have given up. I guess they do not value repeat customers. I understand if they have many orders and cannot complete mine in time, but all I asked for was a call to let me know if they could…

Great selection, great prices, but parking is limited. The staff is also very friendly/​helpful. It’s a fun place to look for a piñata.

TERRIBLE service, rude owner. They made a custom piñata and di EXACTLY what I asked them NOT to do (make it look like a halloween decoration– they made it all halloween colors– I had asked for bright like purple, blue) The young man (he is sweet) acknowledged that perhaps he had not told the people making it that part… and I told him we had talked about it. When I asked if they could simply add some color to it I was told the piñata maker was leaving. at 11 am. ???
They slapped a terrible sticker on it, unevenly, then told me I was supposed to «go home, get a box cutter, slice it open, pack it and tape it up».
???
WHy am I paying YOU $ 85 dollars? SO i can ruin it? ISnt this what you do?
The owner came in. WHen i told her I wasnt happy with the design and told her what we had spoken about, she said «You dont have to take it. I have other people who want this one».
???
Its my sons 2^nd birthday (she knew that, he was with me) and I should just drive my butt to downtown to turn around with nothing? SHe didnt apologize she didnt offer to change it, or give a discount, nothing.
and to top it off when I asked that THEY at least cut the opening so I wont ruin it she told me «in our culture you cut them yourself.».
FAIL.

I placed a custom order for a piñata for my son’s 1^st birthday and the piñata was better than the photo I showed them. Also, a very good size. The price was decent compared to other shops I visited in DTLA. The candies sold in bulk are a decent price. Everyone that helped me was accommodating. I will be back for future parties.

Truly amazing selection!

I’ve been getting custom piñatas here for the past 3 years and let me tell you «THEY ARE AMAZING»… Their prices are great! The work is Amazing! I recommend this place it’s awesome

Coolest piñata shop of all time! Spotted a giant Lego dude, Witch of the Wicked West, Maleficent Witch, a black crow, giant watermelon and strawberry piñatas! Greater selection than the basic shit found at other nearby shops.

Got a super awesome motorcycle piñata for my boyfriend’s birthday. There were two options/​colors to choose from. The guy pulled one down and it was pretty dusty but the shape was perfect and it was only $ 13. Only sad part was that the handle bars fell off before I got it to it’s final destination, so I wish it was a little stronger.
Our friends erupted in cheers as everyone rushed in to fight for their loot. I would definitely go to Amazing Piñatas again, but maybe make sure to pick a less fragile shaped piñata.

I’ve been here twice and never experienced such terrible and unwelcoming service before. The first time, I basically got strung along by this rude lady who apparently is the one that decides which pinatas will be made. I was looking for a custom piñata for a birthday party, nothing crazy just a skateboard logo and bcuz there was a pentagram in the logo I was sent away. The second time I went, that lady was not there and therefore the guy called this same lady who had such an attitude on he phone. She was talking to me as if I already knew piñata design lingo. I left due to a disappointment in their service skills. Never going back and would never recommend unless you want to be turned away, belittled, and be treated like a second rate citizen.

Really cute place with really amazing pinatas! We went all over looking for a ninja piñata and this was the only place that had one. They also had a really really cool Darth Vadar, an impressive Cat in The Hat, ninja turtles, a gun, an amazing zebra that seriously looked too nice to bash. This seems to be the best quality piñata place on Olympic. Plus nice staff :)

1^st time there and it was pretty fun looking at all the different piñatas different shapes and sizes! Being the deal hunter iam I suggest everyone shops 1^st because chances are you can find it cheaper that’s how I found this place ! Candy were pricier ! Lol don’t buy candy the 5^th stand from the corner of Olympic had the cheapest and believe me I looked ! Lol

Horrible customer service. Called ahead to make sure they had a fire truck piñata, mind you I live far, so that’s why I called. Was told by the lady that they did. I said great! «So they’re $ 15 dollars?» Since I saw on Unilocal that someone bought one for $ 15. The lady then answered, «yes.» Go there to buy it and I’m charged $ 20? I tell the cashier what I was told and they lady behind the phone then starts to argue with me saying I was lying. I had the phone on speaker so my mom heard her say it was $ 15. Poor lady, I feel sorry for her trying to cheat her customers. I guess times are tough. I’ll NEVER come here again. She’s a liar and a thief.

This place really does have amazing pinatas! High quality, lots of variety, and very affordable. You will not be dissapointed!

Great customer service, wide variety of piñatas to choose from and most of all great prices!!! Totally worth it!

I decided to give this place a try and at first they seemed friendly with pricing. I was originally quoted one price and after trying place an order, they gave me another price. I was surprised since they had said my piñata was so basic it wouldn’t be more than $ ²⁵⁄₃₀ outsourced or about $ 40 in house plus taxes of course. Now all of a sudden it’s about $ 15 & $ 25 more. It is a big difference and there is no rush. My piñata is not needed for about 17 days and it seems like the usual turn around time is 5 – 7 days. So I have to ask, «why the up charge??»

This place lives up to its name and their piñatas are VERY amazing: p
I was in Yorba Linda today and was not sure if I wanted to make the drive to DTLA. I called a place in Santa Ana that makes custom piñatas but they did not have one available and would have to order one. They required a deposit and the cost was $ 25 for a really large one. I was also looking on Amazon and they were $ 13 including free shipping but I figured they were the smaller ones and would not be sure what I would be getting.
In the past, I’ve purchased medium/​small sized piñatas at Party City/​Target for $ 13-​$ 15. There are inexpensive but the selection isn’t that great, mostly generic ones.
I needed a fire truck piñata which I discovered is a really rare one. A lot of these piñata shops do not answer their phone but Amazing piñatas did and said that they had a few.
When I arrive, they had two left and the piñata was ADORABLE. They told me up front on the phone that it was $ 15. They had so many other cute ones, I even thought about buying a few for future parties but they are pretty big and would not all fit in my car.
They had a lot of unique and custom piñatas. One was a GIANT big rig ($ 150) and I saw a lady walk out with a BEAUTIFUL turtle piñata ($ 18). It was the last one left she told me.
They charge tax here except for the candies but they have the BEST prices and designs. The party supplies they carry are very overpriced although I got a red rectangle tablecloth for $ 1.50, a piñata stick for $ 2 and the fire truck piñata for $ 15.
There are a couple spots for 1 hour street parking in the front but pay caution because this is a high ticketing area: o

Great customer service! I read the reviews and decided to come here to look for a piñata for a birthday party. My bf went next door to check out the competition and then in here while I parked. When I was finally able to get in there, an older gentleman came right up to me and kindly asked what I was looking for. He showed me all of the piñatas he had already showed my bf and told me the prices each time I asked. He was patient and not pushy. They have all sorts of party supplies here but obviously the piñatas are what I was here for. The party supplies (decorations, plates, napkins, etc.) seemed overpriced. When I need a piñata I will come here again!!!

Amazing Pinatas really is amazing. I ordered a specially made piñata with a Team Umizoomi theme and it only cost me $ 30! And it was ready within just a couple of days. I am so happy with them. I will definitely be coming back for more pinatas in the future.

Amazing Pinatas is awesome! They are so helpful and knowledgeable about pinatas and filling them and playing with them! The prices are so much less expensive than a Party City too. And you can choose any shape you want! They need about 5 days to make a custom shape (you can do anything from characters to beer cans!) or you can go in and pickup some awesome ready-​made ones. A 3′ tall #1 piñata was only $ 15 and a larger 4′ mermaid piñata is only about $ 35 – 40 I believe. And they are always a hit with adults and kids!
Note: parking can be hard, there are 3 spaces in front and some street parking.
