    Apple Cinnamon Taiyaki
    Wanda H.

    A wonderful place! The boba tea was delicious and the Taiyaki was VERY tasty. I'd never had it before and was impressed. Not overly sweet, with just the right amount of flavoring. They have other things I've never heard of before that I'll definitely be back to try. Service was a little slow, but worth the wait. Cute place for being in a strip mall. Prices were okay.

    Went earlier in the day so it was quieter in the cafe. Super clean and the workers were SO nice! The bingsu was really refreshing (probably also because it's been extremely hot out) and the fruit was really fresh too! We got a small bingsu and it was still a lot for two of us. Tons of drink options; we got a coffee (quite strong) and a tea!

    Tiramisu bingsu
    Mishell H.

    Went here since I was in the west county area and wanting a little treat. Ordered the tiramisu bingsu. It was amazing! There have a decent sized menu so it was hard to decide what to get but definitely enjoyed my pick! Service was quick and timely. I was greeted right as I walked in the door. Restaurant is located by a few other restaurants and businesses and has ample parking. It was clean and modern inside. Def a must try and I will def go back next time I am in the area

    Great spot!!! The sweet red bean taiyaki, the matcha boba, and the tiramisu bingsu are all phenomenal. So many flavor options for each. Super cute shop with a good amount of seating so you can stay and enjoy. Fair prices and good portion sizes.

    Nutella Taiyaki
    Kat G.

    2nd here and once again excellent service, food and drink items. The Nutella taiyaki was warm, sweet and had a perfect amount of Nutella. The apple cinnamon taiyaki was a little too sweet 'for me' but very good. The place was packed out tonight, Sunday at 7:00 but we had our drinks and food within 10 mins.

    Mango Tango Bingsu

    I recently took a summer road trip with the family up to St. Louis, where our extended family live. We usually do an annual trip and I've never really experienced great Asian foods, but this trip was very different. I really enjoyed my Spoonful experience! The inside is very cutely decorated for the gram, which I wouldn't have guessed based off the location in the strip mall. They have a cute photo wall and it was very crowded, which tells me the bingsu is on point, which indeed it was. I got the individual sized mango bingsu, which if I recall correctly, their individual size is only available during the week. Every bite was flavorful and tasty. I would definitely come back and try some of their other flavors on our next family vacation!

    I have been to spoonful several times in the last two years. In the past I had their bingsu and I did tried quite a few of their many flavors. Out of all the flavors I have tried. I like the mango bingsu the most, not overly sweet at all. The taiyaki in the past only had two flavors. I did tried the red bean and Nutella, today I saw that they also added the apple cinnamon flavor. Today since I was already full from eating Korean food at the next door restaurant , me and my friend decided to just get bubble tea. Their price on bubble tea is fair. I got the whipped dalgona today and my friend got their tiger sugar. The level of sweetness that I get is seventy five percent here since I like sweet, fifty percent is perfect for my friend since she doesn't like her drink as sweet. The bubble tea is not something I would go here to get if I am not in the area since I had better. However for the bingsu, I will.

    One word: Bingsu! And Taiyaki?!! Yes! Amazing! And the service is quick! Super clean and cute location. Can't wait for it to be franchised!

    Andrea S.

    Desserts were delicious and beautifully served. The service was very slow though. Parking was very easy. Lots of Korean businesses in the area.

    Always a nice stop in to come here after JooJoo's or CM chicken. It's right next door. The staff is always friendly and attentive. As for food and drinks, I prefer getting the taiyaki here. I rarely get the bingso. I always do find a drink! I rotate between the peach tea with lychee and boba or the taro with boba or the regular milk tea with boba. Sometimes it gets really crammed on Friday or Saturday nights, so I wish they had more seating. But honestly people rotate through a lots, so it's not too bad. I heard they have another location in Edwardsville, so I hope to visit that one too!

    Wow! They need a bigger spot for this joint. It's very super busy the whole time we got there & I know why. We ordered Bingsu which I've never had before but I will definitely be back to get more. I had the Biscoff & my husband has the cookies & cream. I'm pretty sure we got the mini but I think they gave us a small. Otherwise- the portions are huge. So cute inside, lots of seating for a group of 2-4 but not good seating for a large party. They offer more than Bingsu. You can find Boba Tea & some small pastry like bites.

    Sara G.

    Bingsu! Give me all the bingsu. I feel less guilty when I eat bingsu. The portions are much larger but it feels lighter to me. Just let me be naive. I don't need to know the truth on calorie counts. lol Spoonful is our Korean dessert spot in St. Louis. The story behind its inception makes me happy. Founder Monica Lee's shares her love for bingsu to our St. Louis community from trying Korean desserts all over the world and bringing them here. The menu, featuring a variety of treats from bingsu to taiyaki and bubble tea, offers something for everyone. We got the cereal killer, biscoff caramel, and oreo bingsus. They were light and delicious! It was packed and these folks move fast! Excellent service!

    Fruity pebbles bingsu (small size)
    Audrey B.

    Such unique desserts! I had never tried (or heard of) bingsu before, so I was excited to try something new. It did not disappoint. I go the fruity pebbles bingsu. They offer sizes small and large, but the small is pretty dang large. It was a little pricey, too. I wish they would call that size "medium" and offer a smaller size. But it was still delicious - basically it is frozen cream that is shredded into tiny ice pieces. You can add condensed milk to it (please do) too. The texture reminded me a lot of Hawaiian shaved ice (like the real stuff in HI) but creamier. Very fun and pretty to look at. We also tried a Taiyaki - basically a waffle in the shape of a fish filled with something. We got ours with nutella inside. The waffle was so good!!! I've been to a lot of places that have waffles but they are really bland; there's was yummy and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Service was fine, the staff working was helpful. They have a little kiosk for ordering but it crashed when we almost finished and tried to pay so we just ordered with the person up front. They seemed really busy and it took around 10 mins for our order. The inside is pretty basic - a few tables for seating and the counter, kind of like a Coldstone Creamery layout.

    I thought it was mid. The boba was good but the boba tea was very mild. The bingsu was very underwhelming.

The drinks were okay! I could barely taste any matcha and it was very milk forward. I think the thai had a better flavor so I would opt for that next time. But food wise, absolutely loved the pho and that it came with fresh mint, bean sprout, and jalapeno. I also loved the broth! My husband's shrimp lo mein was also very good, but he had a lot of carrots in his lol My toddler loves noodles, so he liked both of our meals. Great spot for quick pho!
