Golden Spoon Frozen Yogurt

Currently watching the employee pick her pimples… this is absolutely disgusting and completely unacceptable.

I’ll give this place two stars because the yogurt tastes good but that’s it. I came here with my two small daughters and yes, I bought the $ 1 mini cups but I added cones and sprinkles. It ended up being more than the $ 1. So as she’s handing it to my 5 year old, my daughter takes it and accidentally drops it right there as she’s grabbing it. So I ask if there is any way I could have another. She says «yeah. The same thing?» And I say yes. She then rings me up for another one! Really?! Fine. It’s $ 2. No big deal. So I get my stamp card out and she says because they’re the mini cups and only $ 1 they don’t stamp for them. But I didn’t JUST get the mini cups… We got toppings and added cones and ended up spending $ 6+. Apparently it’s not monetary amount that is spent but the actual product? Lol. Okay. Whatever. I will be going to the one in Alton square from here on out, which I normally do, because they’re actually normal and reasonable people there.

The consistency of their yogurt is on-​point. I really like how creamy it is. The store and brand overall seems to lack charm though. Nothing special about their stores, décor, design, cups, etc BUT their yogurt quality is really great.

Who is Kim? She said she was the owner. So rude & disrespectful… after decades of not having golden spoon, my friend and I went to get some and encountered this kim character who was extremely rude when we asked to try 3 different flavors not to mention she was glued to her phone when we walked in without acknowledging us & let’s not forget the most bizarre part of it all she yelled at us the whole time, wow never going back to this location!!!
Our conversation went like this: I asked her who is the manager she said «ME. You want to know who the owner is? ME» and I told her «you shouldn’t talk to your customers like this, I can go to yogurt land» and she said «okay then go» I’m still in shock how they are in business if this is how the «owner» is

Horrible Service!!! The gummy bears were hard as rocks, and they refused to change my order. I threw away the whole thing, and paid it full!!! Never coming here again. UgH!!!

Totally not recommended! I ordered the regular size old fashioned vanilla ice cream with gummy bears… The gummy bears were hard as a rock the minute I got my order and I almost lost a tooth! I asked for a new one w/​o the gummy bears but they refused and charged me + extra for the new ice cream… Wow… What an experience at golden…

These guys won’t even accept a credit card, if your frozen yogurt order is less than $ 3.
–Dumb policy —
Plus a very rude female staff with attitude at this location.
I will never buy froyo from this Golden Spoon again.

Let me start off by saying that I LOVE golden spoon… This location however, is awful. The employee I encountered was so rude to me that I ended up leaving without yogurt. So disappointed! Oh well, go to Yogurtland instead! It’s in the same center.

I’ve had Golden Spoons in Buena Park and thought hey this is really good. There really isn’t one close to me so I tend to go to Yogurtland a lot more. However, occasionally when I pick up my brother from school at UCI I tend to visit Golden Spoons. I love the customer service. They are like extremely jolly (like x-​mas Santa jolly).
The frozen yogurt is classic and sweet, filled with a creamy rich texture. I like to go with the classics (strawberry, vanilla or chocolate) tho some of their other flavors are pretty good too (such as the boysenberry). You pay and add the toppings you want, for me just strawberries most of the time. If Im craving something more along the lines of ice cream type frozen yogurt then yeah I will probably stop here.

How can something so simple be SO satisfying? Maybe its because I haven’t had something too sweet for 3 days due to a catastrophic stomach bug incident… or much of any real sustenance really.
Anywho I’d been craving something sweet and creamy and on a typical weekday after dinner adventure my boyfriend and I stumbled into UTC for a usual cup of boba. Tonight I opted to be adventurous. Tonight I wanted to try Golden Spoon. I was literally the only customer and after being greeted I asked what I would think would be the most offensive question, «What’s the difference between this yogurt and yogurt land?» The young guy across the counter just chuckled and said, «I think ours tastes better.» Good enough for me young man! I shall take a mini cup. He offered me a sample before I took the plunge and I tried the Café Latte.
Mmmm. Perfection.
I had to have it. I ordered half café latte and half classic vanilla in a small mini cup topped with rainbow sprinkles. Why sprinkles? Because they make me giddy like a little kid who is handed a puppy with a big fat bow. They make me content to my core. And after 2 nights of getting to know my toilet and bedroom carpet in ways no one should know I needed that kind of joy. I needed those sprinkles.
My mini cup was the perfect amount of froyo for me and I have to say I enjoyed it much more than I’ve been enjoying the yogurtland across the path lately. It was creamy, thick, and silky. The sprinkles made me smile after each little crunch. Overall it was a really clean place and in my opinion had fresher looking toppings than yogurtland too.
Golden Spoon I will definitely be back. To think I went through 4 years of undergrad without ever ONCE trying you! Shame shame shame on me!

I typically go to yogurt land, but decided to go to this location while I was on campus. I am very disappointed in the level of service experienced here. The lady who was serving the yogurt, was very stand offish, and looked at my group as if she would really not be bothered. I asked for a sample and did not care for the two flavors I tried, so wanting to order something I asked to sample a different flavor. She looked at me in disgust and told me no you can only try two flavors. She did not thank any of us purchasing yogurt, and was very short with each of us. With this type of customer service i think I will stick to yogurtland where they seem to appreciate their customers rather than dread them.
As far as food quality, the yogurt is watered down. Not the best choice out there.

Great location in a strip mall next to Ralph’s. Very clean and friendly staff. And they have eggnog for the holidays.

What’s not to love about Golden Spoon? Always reliable and always good. I personally love the coffee ice cream with Reese’s peanut butter cups on it!

Nothing special. If it weren’t for the fact that it is in a prime location, surrounding with other types of eateries like Tender Greens and Le Dip, I wouldn’t normally come here for my tasty after-​dinner snack.
The location can look pretty empty from the outside, but they do have a variety of options to choose from. There is usually one staff person working, so if it gets busy, it can be a pain in the butt.
Currently having a special: $ 1 yogurt (small size) on Monday and Wednesday nights.

Admittedly, I’m not a much of a sweets guy. I’d prefer to get something savory than anything sugar-​coated.
But yesterday was $ 1 froyo monday (for a mini size)… And some friends wanted to meet up there.
I ended up getting pumpkin frozen yogurt with graham cracker (topping was $.55). The yogurt was just okay, but the graham cracker was awkward. It was powdered. I feel it would’ve been better to have some small pieces of crunchy graham cracker as the contrast in texture would’ve been more appealing.
Also, two of my friends ordered the chocolate but tapped out. They said it was way too sweet like a cocoa powder. They both looked down at their half-​full cups and cringed.
Stop by if you want to hang out with friends and get froyo but it’s really nothing special. And avoid the chocolate froyo…

Cake batter :-) and every Monday 2 flavors for $ 1!!! As a college student and a baller on a budget this place is incredible! Enough said loved it :-)

Thought I would give the rather lonesome Golden Spoon a try. Bad choice.
I was rather disappointed — the frozen yogurt was watered down and soupy in a matter of minutes. The espresso flavor is tasty, but salted caramel and chocolate malt are definitely a no-​go.

This place is your average yogurt shop.
I think this place is extremely overpriced for what you’re getting. And to be honest, it’s not the best taste ever, there could be better. Service is whatever too, the guy who helped me barely talked, I had to tell him what I wanted rather than him ask me. I told him it was my first time and he still didn’t talk much. No suggestions or anything. I also don’t like the portions, and when I asked for Kit Kat on top, he sprinkled like 10 crumbs. I didn’t pay extra to merely get 10 sprinkles of Kit Kat topping on my yogurt. This place disappointed me and I am never coming back here again. The taste was good enough, but nothing special.
Try it if you’re craving it, it’s not great though.

I should have read the other reviews for this location before making the trek over here.
Sure enough, I was told by a rude male employee that my stamp card with 8 stamps that said «Good at participating locations» (it didn’t say any specific locations were excluded or only certain locations were included) would not be accepted. When I explained to him that the stamp card did not list any exclusions and was not for specific locations only, he said the manager had said this location was no longer accepting stamp cards.
I was upset but didn’t want to be that rude person who orders yogurt and leaves without paying since he had already made my order.
Very frustrating experience for a loyal customer, Golden Spoon’s corporate office will be hearing about this!

I’ve been coming here since middle school. Back when we saved up quarters and begged our parents to drop us off at UTC so we could grab some Golden Spoon after school. Now that Yogurtland has opened up, I never come to Golden Spoon anymore but it’s still a pretty good spot for non-​tart frozen yogurt.
The yogurt here tastes just like ice cream. It’s weird because I like frozen yogurt but Golden Spoon just makes me want to eat ice cream instead. Anyways, I generally stick with Vanilla and get toppings on it. Graham Cracker powder and whatever chocolatey stuff I’m in the mood for.
Stick with the mini. It’s more than enough :) ³⁄₅
