Yogurt Works

Damn Im way behind on reviews. This shopping center used to be filled with great stuff which is fast turning over. THe Jewish grill and now this too. Im always looking for a solid Green Tea yogurt and the works had a good one. Sorry to hear it’s closed RIP

Yogurt Works was good!
One of the better yogurt places that I’ve tried since there seems to be one on every block now!
I usually stick to the plain tart, mango, and pineapple. All were very delicious here!
I tried the mango balls… it was a little strange to me at first. A burst of juice when it pops! It was interesting, but still strange to me! So try it if you’re daring enough! :)
I love mochi, strawberry, and cream cheese cake toppings!

Read about their «do it yourself shaved ice» so my Daughter and I made it and was told that they do not have the damn machine today because it is being used at a special event.
I don’t care.
It’s like a sandwich joint w/​o bread!
Never. Again.

5 Stars for Dole Whip — that’s all I care about.
Oh, that and they have a self-​serve shaved ice machine. Pretty cool, I’ve never seen that before.

After taking the kids to Cupertino Memorial Park I was in the mood for some fro-​yo. Somehow we ended up on El Camino and hubby decided on Yogurt Works. I was game to try a new place.
It was pretty empty when we arrived late afternoon on a warm Saturday. We weren’t really greeted and I was fine with it. We walk around and browsed the flavors they had to offer. There was lots of toppings to choose from.
Hubby had raspberry, mango and orange. They were all very tasty but I think orange is his favorite :)
I had lychee tart with mango popping boba, passion fruit popping boba, assorted jelly and mango. I realized that I’m not a fan of tart fro-​yo during this trip.
Shaun had artic tart with a little bit of every topping they had. He was a happy camper.
Evan had pistachio with fruity pebbles, cheesecake bites, mango and kiwi.
Madi had shaved ice with rainbow flavors.
Overall the place is pretty cool. There were arcade games for .25 cents. Store is clean. Service was alright and prices? Kinda pricey to be honest. My go to fro-​yo place is still Yogurtland.

Lately I have been on this froyo kick. I’m sure it’ll pass but while I’m on this aforementioned kick, I will frequent this establishment. Here are the reasons why:
cheap. 35c an oz. Most places are bout 40 +
lots of options. 16 flavors
good options. The arctic tart is AMAZING. Vanilla’s not half bad either
lots of toppings! The only thing they didn’t have was peanut butter chips but that’s ok. They had dark chocolate caramel cups. mmmmmmm
Clean. The place is clean and well kept.
This place will be the death of my waistline. *sigh* Somebody save me from my addiction!

SOMEONE do something about these f*cking kids re-​using their tasting cups in the machines! Does no one (obviously not those dumb kids/​teenagers) understand the contamination they leave for the next person when they lick their tasting cups all over and then dip the same one back on the machines!!! GROSS!!! Put up a sign and leave out more tasting cups or something!
Besides that potential biohazard environment, they have awesome toppings, great varying flavors, fun looking arcade tables to sit at, and a K-​CUP coffee dispenser!!! I think they have wi-​fi as well.

One of the best yogurt place I have been to. I Love Love Love their vanilla custard!!! They have great toppings! My Favorite are these mango beads that looks like fish eggs… They burst in your mouth with mango flavor!!! They sometimes have it in passion fruit flavor to.
A must try!
The place is fairly clean and I love the funny utube videos they play but it seems to play the same thing every time :(
The staff are ok… Sometimes I don’t see anyone working the counter until minutes later!!!

I lovvveee that they have different types of tart flavors! Arctic, lychee, mango and pomegranate. Mmmm. I’m in heaven! The dole pineapple is yummy too. I’ve never tasted anything like it before! It’s very smooth, light, and not too sweet. I definitely recommend trying it! The yogurt always comes out smooth too. I suggest using the mini tester cups to check the yogurt’s consistency and to sample the flavors.
They have a pretty good selection of toppings also. I especially like the mango and passion fruit «bursting balls» as my friends and I like to call them. Haha. They are tasty and fun to eat. They even have lychee jelly! My favorite (: I also like how they chop up the fruit.
They also play funny/​interesting YouTube videos, which are all very entertaining. They recently added a Keurig coffee maker and a fridge with some ice cream in it. Random, but useful I guess! The workers here are always very friendly also.
This place is definitely my favorite yogurt place by far!

Not too bad.
3.5 stars
Came here with my beau to visit a friend who came to Santa Clara for his interview. It was a last minute thing to decide to go visit him. Never would have gone to that area if it wasn’t for him. It appears to be a huge Korean population in that area. The yogurt was decent, lots of cool flavors, and you can try them all! I definitely hit up 90% of it and did end up on getting the choc and vanilla combo, maybe a dash of pumpkin. Pretty lame huh? But they even had taro flavored froyo as well. Prices were fair.
I’ve been lagging on my updates so its time to catchup. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to but I’ll sure as heck try!

Came here on a whim after receiving decent reviews by my boyfriend and I was very very disappointed.
The good things I can say about this place is that it’s very clean and spacious, other than that the yogurt was not good.
I tried multiple flavors with the sample cups and I ended up getting mango sorbet and Artic frost? Normally I love tarty yogurts, but all of them were very bland, too icy, and too watery. Spoon after spoon it felt as if my yogurt was losing it’s flavors.
If you’re craving yogurt, your money will be better spent elsewhere!

Having just spent a week on Oahu and craving DOLE WHIP, I searched Unilocal and ran across that Yogurt Works has Dole Pineapple. So off we go in our car to check it out.
I have to admit, this isn’t the same DOLE WHIP from the islands, but IT COMES PRETTY DAMN CLOSE!!! It wasn’t as creamy but it had the right flavor and the right consistency, so perfect enough to satisfy our Dole Whip Craving. So if you’re missing some Dole Whip from Oahu, come here and peep out the Dole Pineapple to satisfy that craving. Your tummy will sing for joy!
Been here other times before my need-​for-​Dole-​Whip fiasco and their yogurt is quite good. I’ve tried the mango lassi (very good), cookies and crème, kiwi strawberry, and blueberry pomegranate and they are all very tasty.
It’s in a newer Korean shopping plaza right next to a smoke shop. It’s safe to park away from the cars cuz. um. they can’t drive in that little parking lot. ;-)

Frozen custard! The mint yogurt was nasty, but the chocolate custard made up for it. Next time I’m just getting custard.
I wish they had had mashed up Oreos, not just mini Oreos. Oreo dust is the way to go.
I probably would have gone in here ages ago except the place is not visible from the street. Self-​serve rules since I only end up paying about 2 bucks every time I go to a self-​serve place. Custard at the Willow Glen place costs like $ 4 and even the smallest serving is too much for me to finish.
I want more custard.

Yogurt Works works for me! :) I was pleasantly suprised that their fro-​yo was very flavorable, smooth, and consistent. I tried their new flavor… Pomegranate Blueberry, which I absolutely LOVED! I also tried their Dole Pineapple and it was… magnificent. They have 14 other variety of flavors that I’ve sampled, but the Pomegranate Blueberry and Dole Pineapple are my favorites.
Like many other fro-​yo shops, they offer a large variety of toppings including fresh fruits, cereal, chocolate, and candies. The fro-​yo is sold at 35 cents per ounce.
Overall, the fro-​yo was delicious and service was friendly. If I ever visit California again, I would definitely come back!

When I walked into this place, and saw all the flavors they don’t have at Yogurtland, I was ecstatic. «Oooh, Mango-​lassi? Arctic Tart? Pistachio? Blueberry Pomegranate?» And then I looked up at the price. $.35 an ounce. Minus one star. Then I went ahead to try a few flavors. While the Vanilla Custard was really creamy, they were inconsistent with the rest. A few tasted «icy» including the Honeydew Melon. Minus another star. And what’s up with the Arctic Tart tasting just like Plain tart? Here I was thinking that I was going to get some kind of *zingy* taste in my mouth, like I was breething in cold arctic air in the North Pole. I was disappointed when I slurped my sample cup and all I tasted was plain old tart. On the bright side, the Mango-​lassi tasted just like «Langka» flavor, or Jackfruit (English translation.) I was also disappointed that they didn’t have any graham cracker crumbles. Instead they had Teddy Grahams. Bummer.

Don’t play with my FRO-​YO.
GOOD, but NOT great.
I tasted all the flavors and I was impressed with the Mango Lassi and the Snickerdoodle. Not too sweet and not too bad.
Toppings are basic, but I would kindly suggest to add jack fruit please. Afterall, you are in an Asian Plaza Mall, right?
Quality and flavor-​wise, my vote still goes to YogurtLand.
RECOMMEND if you’re just cruising on El Camino K-​Town and craving a fro-​yo quick fix.

YOGURT WORKS… I HATE YOU, I HATE YOU, I HATE YOUUU!
Why do you have to be sooo good? You have the power to lure me here after a FULL lunch. Not to mention, trying to recover from food poisoning the day before. AUGH! Now, I have to pay the consequences. However, I cannot blame you; I can only blame myself and my overbearing cravings.
At 35 cents an oz, this place is pretty standard with their pricings. What I love about this place is the 16 different flavors of frozen yogurt. YUP, SIXTEEN! That’s FREAKEN AWESOME!!! Besides Yogurtland, I have not been to another place like this. I ended up with Taro, Artic Tart, Passion Fruit, and Pineapple. Since you can taste all the flavors before purchasing them, you cannot go wrong. YUMMMY!
The topping was a little disappointing to me. I always eat my FROYO with WALNUTS and LYCHEE but they didn’t have it :(I had to substitute it with almonds and mango jelly instead. Yea, I’m a bit dramatic, but a girl got needs :) Other then that, they have all your usual toppings: fruits, cereal, candy, etc. Since, I work close by; I dub this as my froyo joint of choice from now on.

After reading some great reviews, we decided we had to check this place out.
The variety of flavors, (including custard and sorbet intrigued me.)
I tasted all the flavors, and found some of them to be way too icy, and thin, (i.e. snickerdoodle.)
Although, I did love the pineapple sorbet, and with some strawberries it was really good.
The guy working there, (I think he may have been the owner) was very nice, and friendly without being too in your face.
There is a pretty good assortment of the usual toppings: different candies, cereals, and fruits.
I also noticed that there was a girl running around cleaning everything, so the place was pretty spotless when we were there.
There was nothing really wrong with this yogurt shop, but nothing that stood out enough for me to go out of my way to come back.
I still favor Sip, and it’s much closer to my house.
If I’m going to go to Santa Clara for fro-​yo, it will still be for Frozo’s.

29 cents after 10pm on these hot summer days. good deal indeed. you would see a mob of kids rushing in right at 10pm. it’s actually pretty funny. Otherwise 34 cents buddies!
I came here to study. check out a new place… all i can say is. not a place to study! even though there is WIFI
Venue: Pretty small area. Good amount of tables and chairs. They have some seats right outside of their shop also.
Hours: Closes at 11:00pm
Yogurt: It was a mix of tart and creamy. The yogurt melted pretty fast though. The dispensers were kind of hard for me to press down. I actually had to use my non-​existent muscles to press down and empty out what left there is of the flavors… I was overwhelmed with the amounts of flavors they provided! The flavor tags were pretty small but descriptive so i had to take my time to read each and everyone!
I had the green tea, lychee, and peach flavors. My favorite was the green tea. I love how the flavor was so strong it made me think I was actually eating the ice cream. authentic! The toppings were arranged in neat compartments. but I had to go on my tippy-​toes to read the labels!!!
They had 2 arcade tables. I thought that was pretty neat. Otherwise. If i happen to be in the plaza or area, I would pass by. but i still have more of a preference of pinkberry, yogurtland, and etc!

Solid self-​serve yogurt here… and a whopping 16 flavors to choose from, including tart, sweet, sorbet, and sugar-​free options.
The store was spacious and clean. The girl here was totally sweet also. Unsurprisingly, there is only one cup size available – huge. I grabbed my huge cup and put in tons of flavors because I am a very indecisive and greedy person. I want it all.
I ended up these flavors:
–Arctic Tart: «Arctic» stands for «icy.» This was icy, tangy and mildly sweet original yogurt. I happen to like the icy texture but not everyone does. It needed a bit more flavor in my opinion, but was good. Would eat again.
–Taro: Not the best I’ve had, but good and creamy.
–Green Tea: Pass.
–Pomegranate tart: Didn’t taste like pom, but not bad.
–Passion fruit tart: Got the flavor down.
–Mango sorbet: Good.
–Pineapple sorbet: Went great with fresh pineapple!
Some of the yogurt went *plop plop plop* rather than flowing down slowly and elegantly, to my dismay.
Yogurt Works lacks a bit in the fresh fruit department. The aforementioned fresh pineapple was great though. I also liked their Asian mixture topping – red beans, coconut (or lychee) jelly, and other Asian things. I think their red beans were a bit small and hard though… never had red beans like that before. That topping plus taro yogurt makes for an amazing combination.
Of course, I meant to get a small snack but ended up spending $ 5 and filling myself to the max. Here’s my creation:

The only thing stopping Yogurt Works from 6 stars is their factory-​purchased mochi. Too sweet and overly floured, but they make up for it in (scary) quick service.
I didn’t realize at first, but they are wired like a Swiss bank with security cameras — I counted at least FIVE cameras, which explains how the cashier knew exactly when I needed another sample cup. (And how she also probably knew I used my original 2 sample cups to sample 6 different gigantic samples).
I love that the tart is icy and tart, not too sweet (read: yogurtland), not too melty or creamy (aka red mango). Also, they have a ton of flavors, even the non-​tart ones are good, so theres something for everyone. And how can you argue with 29 cent/​ounce Mondays?!
