Where there is a crowd, there is a Yogurtland. Yogurtland has strategically placed many of their stores in locations with high foot traffic. A good business strategy in our books. But who cares about business strategy? What we care about is the froyo!
At froyomind we’ve reviewed a few Yogurtland’s and have had hit or miss success. This particular location recently opened inside of the Los Cerritos Mall directly across from the movie theaters, coincidence? Perhaps.
Location:
Los Cerritos Mall
The store occupies an old Sanrio that long closed its doors, as you can imagine the store layout is very cramped. The machines are aligned at the back of the store and when a long line forms be prepared to fight your claustrophobic fears.
In typical Yogurtland fashion, you grab yourself a regular cup or a super sized cup. Yogurtland offers a plethora of flavors from the typical plain to the flavored type for your choosing. Once you have filled up your cups you snake your way to the toppings section. One thing that we have to note is the floor at this Yogurtland location. We understand that when you have customers self serve their froyo it is bound to get messy. But the floor at this location was atrocious, littered with bits of toppings and froyo drippings. My sandals were fighting me the whole time I was in the store.
A good effort was made to keep the toppings fresh and clean and they do get some points for that. Once we finished topping our froyo’s they are placed on the scale for the grand total. At $0.30/ounce two regular cups filled to the brim had a grand total of less than $10.00.
To say utter my disappointment at their frozen yogurt is a bit of an understatement. I could tell from the moment I pulled down the handle that their product was far too icy. The froyo snaked out of the machine and refused to brake free when the handle was released. Opting for my typical plain with mochi and some strawberries. The icy-ness of their product really killed the experience and taste. The Irvine - Yogurtland has far superior frozen yogurt to this location.
The toppings get an okay in our book, the store looks nice and it was very crowded. Perhaps mall patrons are enticed by the novelty aspect of creating their own froyo creations. On the other hand typical mall treats are rather pricey, and at $0.30/ounce Yogurtlands froyo is both affordable and fun. We hope their products continue to improve in flavor for the sake of consumers.

I think that yogurtland Cerritos offers a variety of delicous flavor, some of which are the tart’s which have a different texture I Loved it! yes it may be very bussy which seems to be a good thing right if its bussy It must be Good!!!
I really like this yogurtland. As this review says, the toppings are exceptionally good. However, i dissagree about the yogurt. I’ve been to the Irvine Yogurtland and this one in Cerritos is just as good. It is soft and unlike a couple of other yogurt places, this one in Cerritos does not melt the moment you squeeze it out. It’s also not “icy” and is smooth. This Cerritos Yogurtland is a pretty exceptional froyo store.
Sigh Very Disappointing. Very Disappointing. I mean why so crowded and unfriendly service. Its like they want you to get out of the store as quickly as possible. The spoons aren’t even the real yogurtland spoons. Squeezing the lever as you look around makes you feel like your in a small compact space. Hmm the toppings were good but the unpleasant service from the employees are very noticeable. Now that the new Yogurtland in Artesia opened up i sense trouble for this place.
