All the flavors I've tried have not disappointed, but my favorites are the Knot your Average Dough, and the S'mores Ice cream. Their waffle cones are the best I've had as well, they are always a perfect crunchy texture and pair nicely with any ice cream.

Awful service. I won't be back…read more The girl at the take out window was rude. I've been to other locations in San Diego and she was dismissive and forgot one of our ice creams. For as expensive as it is I would've expected better. I will not be back to this location again. Love this business. Not the location. I've been eating the ice cream for awhile. It's making me consider the whole company. I know consistency can be difficult. Perhaps management?

My family and I tried Penguin Yogurt Factory for the first time and we loved it! It's located in a…read moreshopping center with Vons, so there's a large parking lot. The frozen yogurt is self-serve with plenty of flavors to choose from. I got the French vanilla and my girls got strawberry, and we topped ours with Hawaiian Hawaiian Delight Sorbet. Everything was delicious! The topping bar had so many choices, and everything we picked tasted fresh. They also have a pretty large menu beyond frozen yogurt, including teas, milkshakes and other drinks and treats, so we'll definitely have to try some of those next time. It was really hot the day we went, so we were glad there was seating inside. There are only a few tables indoors, but they also have more tables outside with umbrellas. The person who rang us up was very nice. They also have a punch card where you can earn $5 off a future purchase after buying a certain number of yogurts or shakes, which is a nice bonus because we already know we'll be back. This is definitely going to become one of our regular family spots!

My grandson and I love cold stone, but I was highly disappointed in Santee's cold Stone store. The…read moreline was wrapped outside the door on a hot day. Everyone knows people are going for ice cream on a hot day. My disappointment is in the management they only have one young girl working all by herself. I'm gonna say there is at least 20 people in line who were behind me. When I arrived, there's probably about 10 people. The poor girl had to keep mixing the ice cream all by herself. I asked her isn't there anyone here working with you? I've never seen a store only have one employee. She didn't even have anyone there to relieve her for a bathroom break. The young girl worked hard and was very accomplished. I give it to Megan for not giving up. I would've walked out the door and told the manager or the owner to get down to the store and try operate all by their selves. Highly disappointed that someone would allow anyone to work there all by their self without any opportunity for a break. Her arm had to hurt, pulling all that frozen ice cream out and having to mix it with all the extra ingredients that everyone wanted. Most of the people in front of us were ordering a pint or more. I saw her shaking her hand her wrist look like it was really sore. She actually has a pretty good Workmen's Comp. case if she wanted. Hire more help and quit being so cheap. Don't treat your employees like this. Very disappointing.. He lost a lot of clientele too. They saw the line and just turned around and walked away. You're losing money by being so cheap and you're injuring your employees putting them at risk. You can't work someone this hard.

At no point were we told that there would be a charge for water, much less two completely different charges. What makes this particularly upsetting is that it was over 100 degrees outside, and this location has no indoor seating, so we had no choice but to eat outside in the extreme heat. Charging customers for water under those circumstances--without even telling them beforehand--is ridiculous. At the very least, we should have been informed of the charge when we asked for water.
