Yo My Goodness Frozen Yogurt

Great yogurt choices; topping selection was not as extensive as some froyo places, but it was still plenty. Service was great.

We had the best service today at yo my goodness! The manager of this location is amazing, super helpful and friendly. She gave my son an extra color change spoon which is pure gold to a 4 year old. The yogurt and toppings were good, everything clean and fresh, but the real benefit was the service. We come here often and will continue due to the awesome atmosphere! Thank you!

Well I would say this tasted like flavored water, flavored dirty water. We love frozen yogurt but this was disgusting! What a waste of $ 27.

This place is OK. I have only been here once but I was not too impressed. It didn’t look very clean inside and although they had more topping options compared to Orange Leaf, some of them looked like they have been left out for a couple of days. I do like that their yogurt selections are fat free but I wish they had kept their place cleaner and more organized.
They can mix your yogurt and toppings into more of a concrete but I did not want to bother. I ended up picking through some toppings (coconut and pecans) because pieces of other toppings have gotten on top of them.
The service was less than friendly. She took my money after my product was weighed and said not a word the whole time. The highlight of this visit, however, is the temperature-​sensitive color changing spoon and the yogurt was not so bad either. I only wish the place was better taken care of and that they employ people who care enough to say hello.

I have been to this place 30 or 40 times and it’s consistently good. This is 100% DIY and pay by the ounce which is kinda cool. Tons of flavors to choose from but I usually go chocolate and leave the wild experimentation to my kiddos.
Kids really love this place by the way!
Is it THE best frozen yogurt place? I can’t say. I don’t usually get frozen yogurt anywhere else. Is it better than other frozen treat places? Yes, better than some. Beats DQ, and Baskin Robins I think. Not as good as Ted Drewes, or Andy’s. Sort of tied with Serendipity and STL Frozen Custard Factory in my mind.
I recommend Yo My Goodness, especially when taking you favorite kiddos out for a treat.

I absolutely love frozen yogurt, and it’s difficult to disappoint me, but this store did. First of all, it was dirty. Floors weren’t mopped, tables weren’t clean, and even the employee’s uniform had yogurt all over it (literally all over the front). Also, very limited on flavors and there were three spigots out of order.
I’m a stickler on sanitation and was grossed out when the employee sneezed, did not wash hands, then proceeded to put more cookie dough into the topping bin.
Not impressed. Only positive I experienced was the location. The kids I was with enjoyed the color changing spoons though.

About one year ago, I gave the Clayton Yo My Goodness four stars. That particular location was once home to Chill Frozen Yogurt. Perhaps as a result, the Clayton YMG looked a little different from other YMG locations. It was super cute, and they used a different brand of yogurt machines. At the time, I believe they also were the only YMG that was offering frozen custard. It was the only one I knew of, at least.
In that review, I said I’d probably give the other YMG locations three stars. I clearly had lost my effing mind when I said that, and I’m beginning to wonder if I was perhaps too generous with my rating for the Clayton location.
This particular YMG is my closest source of self-​serve frozen yogurt, and I don’t even want it. That says a lot because I love frozen treats, as many of my Unilocal friends can attest.
On my last visit, the machines at this location were serving yogurt, sorbet, fruit purees, and custard. They had several fruity flavors and of course, chocolate and vanilla.
I recall a time when I kind of liked YMG, and to be honest, I enjoy one or two of their flavors. One is holiday nog, which they have in December/​January. Unfortunately, most of their flavors don’t seem quite right to me. Worst of all, the texture is just wrong. It’s icy. I understand most, if not all, of their yogurt flavors are nonfat, but I’ve had plenty of nonfat yogurt at plenty of other yogurt places that has somehow managed to be creamy. When I have yogurt, I want it to be creamy. I don’t want to eat something that tastes like a sorbet.
And that’s exactly how my vanilla sample tasted on my visit last week. It was just this sweet icy stuff. The amaretto flavor was even worse. It was like icy almond extract.
It helps that they now offer custard at this location. The custard is creamy, as it should be. Unfortunately for me, the two custard flavors on my last visit were chocolate banana and bubble gum.
As we left, my husband’s statement summed up our entire experience, «Now I remember why we never come here.»
I don’t know if YMG has gotten worse over the years, or if just seems worse now that we have so many other yogurt places in the area. I’m giving this YMG two stars, and I feel like I’m still being pretty generous with that.

The kids I nanny and I are obsessed. Anytime we pass it they beg me to stop and grab yo my goodness. There are so many frozen yogurt chains and options but this is by far the kiddos favorite. It is always clean, the employees are always nice and patient even when one of the kids dumps loads of m&m’s on the floor instead of the cup. Lots of different options, never disappointed!

I love this place! Sometimes just have lunch here instead of «real lunch food».

It’s super close to us which is the main reason we go. Also, although I load up the «healthy» frozen yogurt with fattening toppings I somehow don’t feel so guilty eating it.
That being said the frozen yogurt is not the best. It will do for what’s nearby and open late. The chocolate flavors are my favorite. The others seem to be pretty watered down.

I was on a froyo rampage the other day (as in boycotting because they didn’t have the flavors I liked) and needed to up my frozen Yogurt game. The boyfriend and I went here and he was already against it.
He says all frozen yogurt has a weird aftertaste but I digress.
I ended up getting a mango with some kiwi mixed in as my topping and he went for peanut butter, granola and peanut butter cups.
I wanted to like it but I wasn’t sold on it very much. It just didn’t have the taste I was looking for and I’m a big fan of fruit froyo so I was sad to see the more standard flavors like wedding cake, and chocolate etc.
I can’t give them a rating too low though because with yogurt it’s all about the times you go back. I’ll try again one day but for now I’m going to have to find my love for this frozen delicious treat elsewhere.

It’s not the best, but it’s…tolerable. The frozen yogurt tastes like its missing something. You can’t go wrong with chocolate, right? Well, actually, you can. Like I said, it’s tolerable.

I tried Yo My Goodness because I heard it has the best fro yo in St. Louis… not so. Tutti Frutti (University City) far exceeds Yo My Goodness in both quality and class. Let’s face it – who WOULD want to buy average frozen yogurt from a teenage girl with an attitude at Yo My Goodness when s/​he can buy a more delicious version from the adorable, health-​conscious couple that owns Tutti Frutti? I will give Yo My Goodness this, and only this – the flavors and toppings are better than Fro Yo.

After a quick lunch a couple doors down we decided to stop in and give Yo My Goodness a try. We walked in and even though it was our first time in the set up looked familiar. In my opinion familiarity is never a bad thing.
We tasted several of the flavors but wound up going with the chocolate fudge brownie batter with some Twix sprinkled on for the added kick.
It was a hot day and the cool goodness from Yo My hit the spot. If I am ever back in the Groves and looking for something cool and sweet I’ll stop back in and see if I can come up with another creation to fit my cravings.

I haven’t been to YMG all winter and was craving FroYo bad, I had to beg the hubby to go (he’s a bigger custard fan).
Today’s flavors were very springy. I sampled the Banana, Fresh Strawberry, Root Beer Float, Blueberry Delight, Cool Mint and Cookie’s ‘n Cream.
The Banana was electric yellow and had the most powerful imitation banana flavor I have ever had in my life, kinda gross. The Fresh Strawberry was good at first but the aftertaste was something more like a red rolaid, much grosser. The Root Beer Float and Blueberry Delight were okay, but not for me.
I ended up going with a swirl of Cool Mint and Cookie’s ‘n Cream. It was a refreshing mint with a creamy cookie ‘n cream twist. I was planning to have my FroYo naked, but the line was pretty long tonight and I was standing right in front of the topping bar eyeing up all the goods. Pretty soon I had dressed up my cup of FroYo with coconut, crushed twix, Andes mint chips, whoppers, cheesecake pieces and chocolate syrup. I don’t know WHAT came over me! The twix was a good idea until the caramel in the candy froze.

As much as I LOVE Red Mango, Yo My Goodness is a lot closer to my house, so about a month ago, I thought I’d give it another try.
Never ever again.
I just can’t get over the highly medicinal taste of this stuff. Makes me wonder how many chemicals they pump into this, because it certainly doesn’t taste natural! Blech.
Sorry guys, this place just doesn’t do it for me. I really tried to like it.

Yo My Goodness is exactly right! It is Yo my goodness good!
Self serve fro-​yo and toppings that is priced per weight. What a genius concept! I recommend the brownie and yellow cake batter flavors! Mmmmm! The place is just so darn cute and trendy inside. I will be back.

I’m really more of an ice cream person when it comes to dessert, but occasionally, I feel like something light and fruity. This is a great place to go, because half of their flavors are usually fruit based, like mango, strawberry, raspberry-​pomegranate, and blackberry, and they have fresh fruit toppings as well. They also have flavors like brownie batter, yellow cake batter, peanut butter, and vanilla, and toppings like Reese’s, nuts, gummy bears, and other candies.
The store is really attractive on the inside, and here’s the best part… you can sample every flavor! If you ask the people behind the counter, they will happily give you as many sample cups as you’d like. I recommend doing so, because sometimes things don’t taste the way that you’d expect them to.
If I want a fruity snack close to home, I head here. However, if I’m in the mood for something rich and chocolatey, I’m probably going to head to Baskin Robbins.

OK, so I’ve had the really tart fro-​yo before — Berry Chill in Chicago totally took me by surprise when I first had it. It’s definitely not the TCBY that I grew up on… So I went in to Yo My Goodness with the same expectations and was pleasantly surprised.
No, it’s not sweet like regular ice cream. It’s definitely got some tang to it, but I also like Sour Patch Kids and lemon anything, so that’s not a bad thing IMHO. Last night I tried a strawberry, key lime, cheesecake combo with chocolate chips and real strawberries. It was a total win! I actually ate the whole thing, which is very unusual for little ol’ me.
So why the four stars? Because they use Styrofoam cups! Big ones! I can just hear Mother Earth crying as I type this! Sad, sad, sad. It would be fantastic if they could serve this stuff in real bowls that could be washed and re-​used. Let the germ nuts go elsewhere if that’s a problem.

Another fro yo place! But this one is close to my home, so I’m likely to go often. They say their fro yo has 80 calories per serving and no fat. Pretty good in my book.
This place opened up with little fanfare since I just saw it driving by rather than reading about it in Sauce, the Webster-​Kirkwood Times, etc. We wandered in this Friday night and concocted our fro yo delicacies.
They had over a dozen flavors, ranging from the standard (chocolate, vanilla) to fruity (strawberry, raspberry pomegranate) to rich (cake batter, cheesecake). They also had a huge amount of toppings, including nuts, candy, fresh fruit, sprinkles and more.
I decided to try a couple different flavors: raspberry pomegranate, mint, and vanilla. I put a little peanut butter cup topping on the vanilla but otherwise just wanted to taste the flavors. The vanilla was good, didn’t care for the raspberry pom (to tart, weird aftertaste), and I LOVED the mint. The next time I go, I will have the mint with some chocolate shavings on top. The mint was really refreshing and summery. Yum yum.
I’d suggest getting a couple flavors in case you don’t care for one of them. Or taking a small bite after putting a little into your cup, just in case. My bf got the cheesecake flavor and no others, and it tasted weird.
They have outdoor seating and indoor as well. It wasn’t too expensive — $ 13 total for 4 of us to get pretty big portions. Not bad at all. It’s in the same building as Robust Wine Café and Jimmy John’s in Webster Groves. Great location!
I will be back!
