Hazelnut gelato and cake batter
KayAnna S.

Although Golden Spoon does not do self-serve yogurt, ordering it through the team members works just as well. Be aware that they will fill your cup past the brim, so if you want less, make sure to let them know or order a cup size down. You don't pay by weight, just size. It does make it worth the money especially if you typically add heavy toppings. I ordered three different yogurt flavors with some of my favorite toppings. I chose salted caramel, cake batter, and cookie butter for my yogurt flavors. All three were delicious, but I tried the gelato hazelnut after choosing my flavors and it was SO good! All of them were delicious really. I added mochi, yogurt chips, heath bar, and nonpareil chips as my toppings. Obviously I loved my choices, but they have a variety of almost unlimited topping options!

Golden Spoon offers a wide selection of yogurt and ice cream options. The place is very clean and the staff is cheerful and everyone seems to work hard. The yogurt is not overly sweet which is nice and the prices are fair

First visit great yogurt, can't wait for coconut! I really liked that is was clean. Service was a little slow one staff member with a line. Still good.

Strawberry froyo + gummy bears
Katie R.

We love coming to golden spoon. They always have great flavors and the staff is always kind and gives us as many samples as we ask for. Hopefully they always have strawberry or my daughter might flip a table. Their tart and dole whip are both so good, surprisingly not every place gets these two flavors right. They have several tables if you'd like to hang out and have your yogurt on site and I like that they decorate for most major holidays.

I ordered a large frozen yogurt here and the portion was mediocre at best. For a large, I believe the whole cup portion should be filled with froyo and then the swirls to the top. I think this is a miss for roughly $8. The flavor is the best which is why we love this GS, but the portions should be better when paying for a larger size.

Was expecting a regular froyo place where you make your own cup and then they weigh it. Not here. Here your order everything at a counter. Flavors are ok. Price is good for what u get.

Staff was friendly. This is not a self serve yogurt place, the staff will do it for you and let me tell you, they will load it as much as they can. I wasn't expecting a lot but it was high and packed in the middle too. They will also offer a lid if you want to take it home. Clean place, well kept, you can tell the place is taken care of. Highly recommend, we will be back to try more flavors.

In general it was a great experience the yogurt was good quality! A little different than the usual self serve, the store was clean and the gentleman in the counter was very hospitable!

The coconut frozen yogurt is my fave, but we will be back to try all the flavors, and all the fixings you can add in are fresh and clean.

Very pleased with my first visit to this spot. Love the nostalgic look and feel…read more Small banana split with marshmallow cream instead of pineapple was delicious. Not enough banana. Served in a cute boat shaped container. Green tea ice cream is very good and not bitter like matcha. Blueberry cheesecake shake was excellent. Real blueberries! Served with a regular straw. Needs a spoon or a wide diameter straw like a boba straw. Peeked around the corner and saw there was a hot food window too! Very decent fries--crunchy outside, fluffy inside. Awesome chicken nuggets. Is that celery salt sprinkled all over? Excellent ranch dressing!! Not the industrial junk out of a jug. Service was good all around. Is the donut shop/florist next door related to this establishment?

Who would give less than 5 stars for this amazing, 'historical' (?) nostalgic place? Mom and pop's…read morerun business since 1960. Yeah, it's old, food is "ok' (3-stars but it's preliminary an ice cream place), it's a bit 'ghetto' and you need to pay attention as to when your order is ready (they won't call names, only orders) but it's Vista's institution! Serving perfect old fashioned soft serves, shakes and a variety of very affordable frozen treats (4 stars). Kids love this place. There is always a line and a bit of a wait. Service is mediocre at best. But... 5 stars because that's the local businesses we need and can't let go away: Vista greedy city hall is about to let it be demolished to build condos... Huge plus for: burger with special sauce, fresh fries, soft serves and banana splits!!!

Stella Jean's new seasonal flavors, Matcha Yuzu and Banana Turon, are seriously so good and 100%…read moreworth seeking out. I ended up going twice just for the Matcha Yuzu and got a scoop on a cone each time. It's such a great summer flavor, super refreshing with a nice citrus kick from the yuzu. The matcha isn't too in your face either, which I really liked! The Banana Turon was a little harder to track down since it kept selling out, but luckily a friend grabbed me two pints when it restocked and honestly it did not disappoint. Those caramelized turon crunch bits are so addictive, I could easily finish a whole pint by myself no problem. I also tried making a matcha float with the banana turon and the flavors worked together really well, highly recommend giving it a shot. The staff is always super friendly and the service is quick. There's also plenty of seating if you want to hang outside and enjoy the sun, or you can grab your scoop and take a stroll around Carlsbad. Either way you really can't go wrong!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Stella Jean's Ice Cream is a California-based ice cream shop that focuses on small-batch,…read moresuper-premium, and locally made ice cream. While most of Stella Jean's locations are in San Diego, there is also a shop in Orange County inside The LAB in Costa Mesa. This specific shop is located inside the Cottages near Carlsbad Village. [Parking]: There's a parking lot right next to the Cottages, but it can be challenging to find available spots. Other public parking and street parking options are available in this part of the neighborhood. [Menu]: The staff lets customers sample various ice cream flavors, but the top Yelp highlighted flavors are Ube + Pandesal Toffee, Brown Butter Pecan, and Sweet Mango Sticky Rice. *** Ube + Pandesal Toffee (kids scoop - $4.95): It was solid, but I can't exactly say it was the best ice cream I have ever had. It did melt pretty quickly. *** This is a nice spot with outdoor tables for customers to sit down and enjoy their ice cream.

I was in this area of Oceanside in the valley and was looking for ice cream. Upon recommendations,…read moreI came across Ocean Rainbow ice cream parlor. Remotely hidden in the back of the shopping plaza on El Camino Real & Mission Ave, is this gem of a small ice cream shop, Ocean Rainbow. One could easily drive right past them because of their small signage on the exterior. The shop is very small and see maybe 10 people. Yeah, very friendly service that is excellent and fast to greet and offer a free sample. This ice cream shop has a very large variety of flavors that are native to Mexican culture. They have ice cream scoops, milkshakes, water-based popsicles, sherbets, sundaes, chamango, banana splits, icicles, elotes, esquites, Tostilocos, popsicles, shaved ice and a whole lot more. You can find flavors like guava, rice, pistachio, coconut, Oreo, cookie dough, rocky road, mango, mamey, cactus fruit, pine nut, MAZAPAN, chamoy, tamarindo, burnt milk, Gansito and even tequila. There most popular item is the Fresas Con Crema. Prices are very reasonable and I got a 3-scoop chocolate waffle cone for $8. They also have fresh-made aguas frescas that are made to-order and esquimales too! I highly recommend checking this spot out the next time you have a sweet tooth!

Love this place. Most ice-cream shops may have 1 or 2 non-dairy options but this place has at least…read more10 non-dairy real fruit sorbets. Watermelon, Guava, Mango, Strawberry, Tamarind, Passion Fruit just to name a few. Got the Chamango with 4 different sorbets and real fruit mango topping. For $9 its a great value. Service friendly. They sell other things too like agua frescas and popsicles and snacks. Definitely a fam favorite in the area. 5 Stars.
