Food: 4 Service: 5 Ambiance: 3 We always love stopping by Golden Spoon for dessert when we're in the area after dinner. It's a small shop, but it's always clean and tidy, and the service is consistently spectacular. It's never overly busy, and even when there's a short line, it moves quickly. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and always serve with a smile, which really makes the experience even better. I love that you can mix flavors and customize your toppings exactly how you want them. They layer everything so nicely, and it always looks as good as it tastes. The frozen yogurt is light, refreshing, and delicious, the perfect sweet treat without feeling too heavy. There are only a few seats inside and a few outside, so it's definitely more of a quick stop kind of place rather than somewhere to hang out for a long time. Still, I highly recommend this spot if you're craving delicious frozen yogurt paired with truly great customer service. read more

Been coming here for years. Glad I was able to take my son to enjoy a cup of their frozen goodness. We submitted a kids creation and one a free mini and got his pic on the wall of fame. Appreciate the goodwill from Golden Spoon. It brings excitement to creating yummy dessert and core memories. Be back soon. read more

Came here for an afternoon treat with my little babe. We both love tart but unfortunately the machine was not working so we settled for the old fashioned vanilla, 7/10. Ethan was very friendly and attentive, he definitely made our experience a 10/10! He greeted every customer with a smile and such welcoming attitude! There are two small tables inside but it is not too spacious. There are also some seatings outside. Hopefully their tart will be back on the menu soon! Thanks again for being awesome, Ethan! read more

Our favorite place! We have been coming for years with our kids. Best customer service - they even remember our orders!! Toppings and flavors are great - highly recommend this place. read more

They do not answer the phone, and their website does not list the daily flavors. Because I live 20 minutes away from Golden Spoon, my only recourse is to move closer to RP or RB or to start my own shop, and neither is cost-effective. read more

I have been a huge golden spoon fan for years and I was so excited to see that there was one in this shopping center while on our way to vons. It is a pretty small location but the service was great, they really loaded on the toppings this time which is always a plus. I know it is not the most popular thing to get but I love getting plain tart with cheesecake bites on a hot day because it is super refreshing! My fiancé went with the strawberry with cheesecake bites and a cherry topping. This will for sure become a regular sweet treat spot for me! read more

Service is always friendly here! To me, this is the most important part! They welcome you in and offer you samples. The yogurt is yummy and flavorful. I enjoy the peanut butter with peanut butter cup toppings (totally over the top!) and also the vanilla with cheese cake toppings. Amazingly, toppings are still $1.10 for a mini (same as two years ago!). The ambience is causal and there is little seating but come enjoy on a summer day and sit outside as there are several benches around the area. read more

Golden Spoon - Vanilla yogurt with blueberries - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - San Diego, California

Excellent little froyo place in Rancho Penasquitos. They do things a little differently than your typical Menchies or other froyo places and don't charge by weight, but you can pick 2+ flavors (a mini comes with 2 flavors + 2 toppings, which was the perfect portion!) I kind of liked this better because you don't have every grubby little hand touching all of the handles and toppings and things You don't really find prices this decent anymore !!! Great for a little froyo fix on a warm day Kris has excellent customer service read more

Myself and 3 of my friends went in this evening because we all wanted ice cream. So happy we went here. Salted Caramel with peanut butter cup topping is by far my favorite! I know this is froyo not ice cream so this is a healthy bonus because it is still soooo good. Another thing, they don't scrimp on the toppings. I couldn't ask for anything better. read more

We stopped by on a Friday afternoon for a sweet treat for the kids. I forgot about this location and how it's hidden in this busy shopping center. This location is very tiny, probably enough for fit about 6 customers at one time. We walked in and there were a couple parties ahead of us. The service is quick and people that come here seem to be regulars and know what they want. It had been years since we frequented a GS since many have closed. The flavors are limited but the toppings are plentiful. I chose a mini coffee with Oreo cookies. My kids chose a mini chocolate with chocolate sprinkles and mini vanilla with sprinkles. My husband got a tart with no toppings. Tax is already included in the prices. If you choose a toppings, make sure you read the fine print because you can get up to 2 toppings if you add one to your order. I believe you are able to get a couple flavors of froyo as well which I totally forgot to do with mine. A mini is just enough and we enjoyed our visit. The young guys who worked there were friendly and inviting. There is only 2 tables inside with 4 chairs. There is one bench outside GS where you can enjoy your treat. Ample parking and located next to Knotty Barrel (separate building from the grocery store). read more

I haven't been to Golden Spoon in many years and I'm happy to say that it's just as good as I remembered it. The froyo is the perfect consistency and they give you a good amount of portioning for the sizes. I love that they put toppings on both the top and bottom so you get the perfect amount. The staff were very friendly and welcoming which made the experience even better. read more

Golden Spoon - Chocolate malt with strawberry banana. Topped with strawberries and cheesecake bites - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - San Diego, California

I'm only posting this for awareness....DOGS (unless trained to be SERVICE ANIMALS SHOULD NOT BE IN ANY STORES ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT SERVE FOOD FOR HEALTH REASONS). You have a VERY CLEAR SIGN stating NO DOGS yet this dog was inside the store! When asked if that person claimed if their dog was a "Service Animal" the person working said no, that he doesn't mind dogs being in the store as long as they behave, which I can understand, however the Health Dept would not. It was hot outside, but there were two people, they did arrive in a car, one person could have easily sat in the car with the dog, or do what I did, leave the dog in the car with the air conditioning running...the parking spaces are RIGHT IN FRONT..nothing is going to happen to the car.... I love Golden Spoon and hope they use this as a training opportunity, b/c what if I had worked or work for the Health Dept and saw this "DOG" in the store...not a trained SERVICE ANIMAL, just a dog....that is a HUGE violation and fine...... *It was NOT the manager working............ read more

Came here for a sweet treat and I was pleasantly surprised. There is a good variety for froyo flavors and they change them up. I like that there is an option for toppings included in the price. The prices are super cheap. I got cake batter flavor and enjoyed it. read more

I've been here twice in a week. My daughter and I are officially addicted. The same guy Chriworks there day and night. He probably has a bed in the back. This guy Chris helped us out both times. Totally cool dude and encouraged us to sample. The product is delicious. Not a lot of room to sit inside but they have a table outside to enjoy. Don't forget to sign up for their rewards program. read more

You know that feeling when an interaction with a customer service rep makes your day a little brighter? Well, that's what "Kris with a K" did at Golden Spoon witho his charming personality.

Amazing frozen yogurt shop with a great selection of flavors and toppings. I want to give a huge shout-out to Kris: he's one of the best service workers out there!!! He always has a smile on his face, asks how my day is, is passionate about frozen yogurt, and treats everyone so well! I don't usually write reviews but wanted to this time since Kris deserves recognition! read more

Friendly staff who gave us plenty of samples . It's not a self serve type of place . They dispense the soft serve and toppings . We loved the abundant toppings . Especially the steam trays of warm sauces (fudge , caramel , etc). We shared a mini raspberry soft serve with almonds and chocolate toppings . Tasted light and refreshing . There's one table inside with three chairs . Decently air conditioned little spot . Would revisit when in area - read more

amazing service from both Julia and Jam! theyre both super sweet and very friendly! 10/10 would recommend going

cute little froyo spot! the workers are really nice and I like the flavors. I would get the mini size because they fill it up to the top.

The best customer service!! They are always so friendly. And I love that they always have a dairy free option!!

A descent place to go to located in PQ by the Vons. My kids loved the salted caramel with Health Bar on top. Good prices, good options, I personally just didn't care for it as much as my kids. I love the fact that you can get a big tub and go half and half with the flavors of your choice, but I do feel they need to mix up their options a little bit. While my kids enjoy almost anything desert-wise, I will still come here, but I won't go out of my way to visit. Keep in mind there are other places in the strip mall where you can get desert, so I recommend trying them all. Definitely worth a shot if you have a craving for some desert and if you're in the area!! read more

Almost every year, my grandparents visit and we come here. One of the workers, Kris, is very passionate and friendly about his job and towards his customers. The yogurt portion is good and enjoy coming here. I recommend this place to any yogurt lover. read more

Peanut butter. Salted caramel. Vanilla. You can't go wrong with any combo of these flavors. Nuts are also a must for your topping choice. You can thank me later :) I got a mini cup of salted caramel. It was good...but would've been better if I balanced it out with a second flavor. (My friend for the peanut butter and salted caramel topped with almonds....it was delish) read more

On Saturday evening we brought our 4 grandchildren here for a treat and what a special treat it was. Kris took care of us and he was helpful polite and a delight. Our oldest is allergic to nuts and said he wouldn't have because there might be nut fragments around. Kris immediately told us not to worry he would be very careful. He then washed his hands thoroughly and for the toppings went to the back to get fresh ones from the original boxes. We felt confident that he had taken all precautions and our grandson would be safe. He gave us full big portions that we all enjoyed. He chatted happily with us. Our experience was a wonderful one. We will definitely come back here again. read more

Golden Spoon - a sign for a frozen yogurt - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - San Diego, California

They sold spoiled yogurts. I bought 3 vanilla and 1 salted caramel yogurts. Then, 4 boys ate a bit in the car on the way my friend's house, they complained all yogurts were sour and wired. They were birthday treats for a son of my friend and my kiddos. After dropping the kids of my friend off at their house, I went back the store to get the refund but they refused it but the store manager insisted those were normal tastes. My friend also tasted one of them, she said it went bad, it should be thrown away! I insisted to get refund all but the manager said he could refund only 2 yogurts and suspected my kids ate all even though I brought 2 yogurts I bought. Anyway I got refund only the half of money I paid. The store manager ruined birthday treats and birthday boy's feeling. read more

We've been in to this location a few times now in the past month or so and the experience has been wonderful. In a time when good customer service seems to have become a thing of the past with most businesses/employees, Kris, who was there each time we have come in, was great! Every time, he welcomed us with a smile, made friendly conversation, was patient with our noisy kids, and helped with suggestions. I don't often write reviews but his excellence Inspired me to. read more

This is definitely the best froyo spot in town! We try to come here once a week. Our favorite flavors are Black Cherry, Blueberry, and Graham Cracker. The guy serving the froyo was extremely patient with very picky customers who were in front of us in the line. There were about 11 of us in line by the time those two finally decided on what they wanted, after trying a few flavors each, of course. The black cherry machine was having issues, so I waited for it to work again, just a few minutes. The guy was so nice that he dished it up (black cherry and blueberry froyo with toasted coconut topping) and brought it outside to me, where I was waiting. Thanks guy!(sorry I don't know your name) I love this place and especially that it's right across the street from where we live and that the service is extraordinary! By the way, they also put your topping(s) of choice in the bottom of the cup... read more
