Highly recommend this place for the yogurt!

by isa6xy

i give this place 5-star based on the tastiness of the yogurt, the cleanliness and the freshness of the fruits. The music was kind of loud, so we took a seat outside, which was nice too.

Yogurt is Better than Pinkberry, BUT forget the coffee!

by JayNgo

We've tried this a few times while visiting Little Tokyo. It is located across the famous Shabu Shabu House. The Yogurt is really good, specially the Acai flavor.Their cold desserts are far better than the more expensive Pinkberry--which incidentally is just a few meters from this location.

But their coffee is just mediocre. Twice I ordered and twice I was disappointed (I ordered a hot mocha & a latte). Also, their air-conditioning needs fixing. For the past 6 months, specially during warm days, it was terribly hot inside. May be it's a ploy to get you to buy more frozen yogurt?

But hey, why go to Cefiore or Pinkberry when you can try out Little Tokyo's famous Green Tea Ice Cream on the Ice Cream Shoppe steps away?

• Pros: Great Yogurt--try their Acai flavor
• Cons: Terrible Coffee; Air-conditioning needs fixing

This bright Italian frozen yogurt shop lets customers personalize their desserts with fresh fruit toppings and sweet favorites like Apple Jacks and mochi.

In Short
Bright walls envelop this cheery shop known for its small but tasty flavors of nonfat Italian frozen yogurt. The lively store is decorated with grey-cushioned and bamboo-backed chairs tucked into vibrant red tables, where frozen-treat fiends enjoy flavors like plain, chocolate, acai berry and raspberry-pomegranate, swirled or served side-by-side, in the shop's signature floral pink cups. Customers can top their yogurt with a huge variety of fresh fruit, granola, mochi and other fun options like breakfast cereal and mini M&Ms. Aside from fro-yo, Little Tokyo shoppers also indulge in smoothies with flavors such as green tea and coconut, as well as snow ice with fruit.

Hits: With an energetic atmosphere, this shop exudes a positive vibe. The store also plans on launching a new flavor of yogurt each season, totaling four new flavors per year.

Misses: Flavors are limited, and with the myriad topping choices, it can get a tad expensive. Also, ice cream fans may be disappointed, since there are no typical flavors such as chocolate chip and cookie dough.
