Last month hubby and I stayed at the W Hollywood to celebrate his birthday. I thought it would be nice to surprise him with a wine basket in the room. So I contacted the concierge about my request and Fancifull was recommended.
Once on the website, I decided on Terry's Choice, which is a beautiful gift basket. It includes a bottle of Isabella Prosecco, goat cheese with dried apricots, and pecan, rosemary & cranberry crostini. The basket was delivered to the concierge, exactly as I requested. When hubby and I returned after dinner, he was suprised to find the gift basket in our room. Every item in the basket was simply delicious! I'm definitely a fan of Fancifull! -

Kristin helped me order a couple of baskets for same day delivery and was incredibly patient and helpful. She spent quite a bit of time with me on the phone going through the website, describing the contents and appearance of various baskets, finally helping me decide on which one to send. She made everything incredibly simple and easy, which was huge for me considering I gave birth 5 days ago and am still a bit discombobulated! Thanks Kristin, and Thanks Fanciful!!

Need a gift basket, but don't want to send the same old generic overpriced crap you'll find most gift basket places send? Then try Fancifull. I've been on the receiving and sending end of several of these bundles of joy and I can definitely recommend them whole-heartedly.
I've mostly used them for their food and wine baskets, but they also do great baby baskets, Hollywood themed ones and Get Well baskets and gorgeous flower arrangements. Overall they are just soooo great to work with and will specialize your basket to make it just perfect.
It's a proud step up from the boring Hallmark approach, so if you want a little something special, then try them! You won't be sorry :)Listed in: Los Angeles Shopping, Los Angeles Wine Shops

Fancifull Gift Baskets went above and beyond for me. I called from out of country and hoping to get something delivered to someone locally in LA...this was not an easy process until I found Fancifull and spoke with Wally over the phone. He was very knowledgeable and friendly!
I had high expectations and difficult delivery requirements and they we SO accommodating.
Not to mention their assortment of baskets and wines can not be met. Nor their prices in my opinion.
If you need trustworthy, friendly, efficient service or any gift delivery this is your place. I saw pictures of the gift I sent, which was a huge hit by the way, and it looked perfect! Such great quality and attention to detail from this place. -

This is the only place in Los Angeles to get gift baskets. In fact, they ship worldwide and are always desire a new customer! Gift baskets, wines, gourmet foods: this place has it all.
They have served the finest to some of the world's best. Awards shows, television productions, and private parties are just some of many reasons you should purchase their gift baskets.
I am a chocolate connoisseur and Fancifull keeps the best of the best in stock. Very rich, very delicious. You can't go wrong with their imported French and Italian wines as well.
To meet the crew and owner Terry August, make sure you attend one of their famous wine tastings. Every two or three months on a Friday evening, Terry welcomes all to enjoy a delectable wine palette as you journey across France.
Look no further for great food, amazing wine and wonderful service. -

Fancifull played host to a Food Fair and Wine Tasting recently and I met Terry the founder. Because of her, she's awakened the sweet toothed beast inside of me. I can't stress this enough . . . when they have an event going on here, you ABSOLUTELY MUST attend.
Aside from their friendly, gracious, and personable staff locally known for making awesome gift baskets, what really impressed me was Terry's selection in selling artisan cheese, charcuterie and chocolate. In addition, also selling boutique crackers, chips, cookies, candy, sweets, olive oil and wine all of which that is either using the best farming/manufacturing techniques or whenever possible it being organically grown. Speaking to her I came to realize her passion for food and quality which easily was confirmed by sampling some of the goods she had for sale. My tastebuds were on sensory overload. Still, 24 hours later, my palate remains in its refractory period.
Do yourself a favor, come here, speak to Terry or any of her knowledgable staff and see for yourself what this awesome local business has to offer. Look for the homemade chocolate toffee candy or apricot cheese spread would be my suggestions. -

This place is awesome. If you need a gift basket for your loved one or work you absolutely need to go to this place!! First off the customer service is off the chain!! I was confused about what day my item would be delivered. It took them less than 5 minutes to find all the info. And they were so pleasant on the phone. Such a rarity in LA. Second, their selection is amazing. They've got cool items, from wine to candy to deli stuff. And very very reasonable. Way more reasonalbe than places like 1800 flowers. The delivery was seemless and my friend was very happy with his gift. This is the only place I'm going to use if I ever need a gift basket sent!! Yay!!

I love this shop! I came here last weekend for a group wine tasting with friends, and I was so impressed with the awesome selection of wine, delicious cheeses, and other gourmet goodies. The owners were so nice and so helpful!
I feel so lucky to have found this place because I know that I can always come here when I need help choosing a great wine. They also sell and make beautiful gift baskets. I'm always coming here from now on for my wines, and for unique gifts as well. I highly recommend FaniFull, It's a really great place. -

so, my bf been a freaking godsend and has helped me take care of my puppy through these sleep-deprived first few weeks. this morning, he woke up at 7 (two hours early) to walk my pup, play with him, feed him, etc. he deserved a gift. a good gift.
i ordered a gift basket (beer truck) for the bf today. he's a fan of beer, particularly the less common ones. salami & cheese are a cherry on top.
the basket was a little pricey but service was very friendly & excellent (thanks, andrea) and delivery was extremely quick (less than three hours). the process was painless, the whole thing took me less than 5 minutes to take care of.
would i order again? a definite yes. -

i've never actually ordered from them, but i tried a variety of their chocolates (OH SO DIVINE), nuts, and other items at Jonathan's Gold Standard food tasting event and they are SO DELCIOUS.. i loved every piece!!
apparently they have a very talented and unique chocolatier, is what they told me.. I DONT DOUBT THEM
if ever there were an occasion where I needed to buy a gift basket for someone.. I'd definitely trust FANCIFUL to prepare a very enjoyable basket -

I've only spoken to Wally on the phone, but I can already tell these people are just a joy to deal with. I'm heading over there soon to check out the store itself. The basket they sent rocked.

Beatifully presented and filled with tasteful and tasty goodies, these baskets are a treat to send and receive. Their "green gifts" are organic, original and gorgeous. Finally, Fanciful's staff is friendly and helpful - they rushed an order for me to get it out the same day - happy to give them 5 stars.

I ordered a food basket for my Aunt Helen and she said it was wonderful. The owner was very helpful in choosing items that would ship well and be easy for an older person (91) to eat. I also ordered flowers from Andrea, who was very helpful. She even sent me a photo of the actual arrangement, which was VERY pretty, and exactly what I asked for.
These people are truly nice to work with and they are very customer-service oriented. -

The folks at Fanciful - Terry, Wally, Tarah and the rest are so nice and helpful. They have a great selection of gift items and are super creative in putting custom baskets together. Their items are all very high quality and yummy. If you need green or kosher or other specialty items they have them. They also have really cute regular baskets to order too. I have sent the get well basket a few times and it is always hit.

These guys are awesome! I have used them for the holidays for many years now, as well as birthdays, anniversaries, baby shower gifts, actually, for all occasions. I have never been disappointed and receive rave thank yous on each presentation. Their custom gift baskets and floral arrangements are real pleasers and they go above and beyond at all times. Thanks Terry, Wally and crew! You guys rock! :) Mary W

I have to say I am pleased with the top-notch customer service from FanciFull Gift Baskets. I searched online using YELP to find a good vendor in So Cal to send a wine gift basket to a friend who was in Santa Monica for an event. FanciFull's online selections were fabulous and I found exactly what I was looking for at a shockingly low price. Since I work in corporate Marketing, I know how expensive gift baskets usually are. Because the delivery was to a hotel, I was worried that my friend would not receive the gift. When I placed my order, I was assured that FanciFull had experience dealing with the specific hotel I was sending the wine to. Wally called me personally to tell me that the gift was delivered the next morning after I placed the order online the previous afternoon. Thank you! I will be recommending FanciFull to all since they ship/deliver.
