    A tiny cup of froyo for $5.49, and flies buzzing around the toppings behind the counter? No thank you. Walk a little ways down toward Handel's and get the good stuff.

    Any visit to Golden Spoon harkens back memories of my teenage years when I used to enjoy fro-yo as a teenager. It's hard to believe this establishment has been handcrafting deliciously creamy frozen yogurt using all-natural ingredients since 1983! Kudos to Golden Spoon for withstanding the test of time. The Irvine location of Golden Spoon occupies the corner unit in the food court at Oak Tree Shopping Center. Parking in this center can be challenging during peak hours. A young teenaged girl worked the front counter when I visited with my daughter on her birthday. We ordered two 8 oz regular cups, but I think this size may be too big for one person...I'd recommend the 4 oz mini cup instead. Due to the special occasion, my daughter got to add toppings and she chose sprinkles and gummy worms (IMO gummies aren't the best toppings for ice cream or froyo because they harden and are more difficult to chew). Golden Spoon's menu is ever-changing, so I'll be curious to see if the Georgia Peach flavor is still on the menu when we visit next time!

    Golden Spoon chain is one of the OV yogurt spots. Service is quick and their yogurt is creamy and always tastes fresh. They also have plenty of toppings to choose from. Inside this location there isn't a lot of seating. Just a couple of tables. But there is plenty of seating outside in their courtyard.

    I was really wanting some chocolate soft serve only to discover their chocolate flavored one was down suddenly. I settled with their strawberry flavored frozen yoghurt with cheese cake topping. What a disappointment. It tasted like one of those artificial strawberry fluoride mouthwash you get at the dentist office. It's too bad because it looked delicious and smelled like it would taste good, too. I am not sure why the texture was also off, also. It had a gritty crystalline mouthfeel to it. The aftertaste was awful. Somehow very bitter and just ick. Giving it a 3-stars due to the otherwise friendly service I received and ample free parking. I most likely won't return in the future.

    You walk in and are transported back to the good ol' days. With red tiles, golden spoons and the sweet smell of frozen yogurt. Our service was quick and our cups were full! I'm a sucker for their peanut butter yogurt and mini Reese's pieces!

    Fun social media moment while building customer base!

    Outstanding service on a busy sunny weekend day. It was bustling but service was efficient and accurate. Their frozen yogurt is delicious. Storefront clean, bright and seating inside and out.

    Finally stopped by. Nice experience, we were greeted right away and didn't have to wait. Simple and clean shop with plenty of parking. There are also a bunch of tables outside in the plaza if you don't want to sit inside. We ordered one mini old fashioned vanilla with oreos and a regular mango/pink lemonade swirl with gummy bears. Portions are huge! I love how they put the toppings in the middle versus sprinkling it on top. Yogurt pricing is standard, especially for the portion size but I do think the toppings are pricey. Nice place to stop after lunch or dinner in the plaza!

    As a kid growing up in Huntington Beach I frequently stopped in. Now that there's one here in Irvine I was excited to bring my kids in. We each ordered the mini. It was definitely more than enough. I was surprised at the price of a topping set at $1.79. My daughters and I had cake batter and I also had vanilla. My son had pink lemonade. I can't remember what my husband choose. We all agreed it was just ok and overpriced. We don't plan on returning. UPDATE: since the owner replied to state that the $1.79 includes three toppings I will say I don't think it's states that on the menu and the employees didn't offer up that info. With how high the serving is I can't imagine getting 3. Maybe with a larger size it would work. With the store being new it would be nice if the employees stated it was for 3 toppings. I hope this places does well.

    so happy golden spoon is back in Irvine - grew up enjoying this froyo spot and we don't have to drive out to CDM for it :) the classic chocolate and old fashioned vanilla are simple and delicious. the quality of golden spoon is better than other froyo spots, and though pricey it's worth the sweet treat. workers were sweet and offered samples , and gave plenty of toppings. the mini size is perfect!

    Salted caramel
    Facundo B.

    The salted caramel yogurt is extremely well done! We ended up getting white chocolate chips, cookie dough, and cheesecake bites. It all works perfect with the salted caramel. The cashier hooked it up with extra toppings! Such a fun time. Very delicious. Oh yeah.

    We were delighted when Golden Spoon opened near us because it's my boyfriend's favorite frozen treat. We like how there's a balance of timeless favorites together with fresh seasonal choices. There's plenty of parking as well as seating outdoors (& a couple tables inside). Great spot for an afternoon or evening treat.

    Regular sized cookie butter - a must try!
    Brian Q.

    I haven't been to a Golden Spoon in ages ever since they closed the one in Cerritos years ago, so I was happy to see this new location open up near my workplace. I was torn between getting the cookie butter or coffee flavor, but the super friendly server swayed me to get the cookie butter, and this did not disappoint. It was smooth and delicious, and not overly sweet. It'd be hard for me to pick a different flavor next time, but I do want to give the rest a try. This will easily be one of my go-to spots it this area.

I was slightly surprised that the price is close to $7 for a single scoop of ice cream on a cone, I guess I'm used to those days when ice cream used to be a dollar, but what I did appreciate was that they offered to put it in a cup for us because the portion they give is so generous that it doesn't fit on a cone. I actually wanted something a little healthier when I went so I chose the no sugar added pistachio, which was so good so creamy so delicious and full of pistachio nuts. I'm aware that there are other options nearby such as Dairy Queen at less than half the price of this, but if I had to choose again, I might still come back to Handel's because the single scoop could almost be enough for two people. We went with a few other families and none of the kids could actually finish their ice cream cone, which is actually good because that means you can share.

I got the s'mores one and it was super delicious, with a graham cracker base, chocolate chips and gooey marshmallows. It was also super creamy and flavorful! The blueberry cobbler one is rich with that blueberry flavor, kind of like a blueberry pie. And the strawberry sorbet was not too sweet and refreshing and it's dairy-free. If you're looking for a sweet treat and don't mind having more than one scoop, go to Handel's!

I've been here twice now and tried about five different flavors total, and every single one was gross.

I didn't even finish it; I just threw it away because it was that nasty. * Texture & Taste: It tastes like watered-down diet ice cream. It lacks any of the richness or flavor you'd expect from a specialized shop, especially for how expensive it is. I wouldn't even go back if the ice cream were free. The Location Trap: This place is right on 17th Street next to Sidecar Doughnuts and Pop Pie Co., which is a great, convenient location. I think people only go here because it's a "cool-looking" spot to stop at while driving to the beach or grabbing a donut next door. If it weren't for the location, I don't see how they would stay in business. Final Verdict: Don't be fooled by the convenient location or the surrounding shops. The ice cream is truly disappointing and definitely not worth the price. I won't be coming back ever.
