Styo Dessert

My son is now so into the waffle dessert thing. We were walking by and the words «frozen yogurt» and «waffle» caught his eye. We had to come back and eat dessert before dinner. This is a great Asian fusion place. They have frozen yogurt/​waffle combinations that make your mouth water, as well as some very interesting yogurt parfait creations. I would have gone for the green tea/​red bean combo myself, but my kids wanted marshmallows and chocolate. They loved it of course. My husband and I scored bites. The waffle was just a waffle, but we were impressed with the flavor of the fro yo which was of the less sweet more tart variety.
The waffle combos are quite expensive. We bought it as a special treat, but I can’t say it is worth the money.

Good yogurt, but the portions are laughably small for the price. Kids size is $ 4 without a cone or any toppings and the add-​ons are $ 1+ so it would add up fast. Makes Menchie’s seem reasonable by comparison!

Highly recommend this place, it’s rarely busy and the workers really take their time on placing the toppings on the correct way. Beautiful interior and the ice cream was really good

First time trying frozen yogurt parfait, and I have to say I’m quite impressed! My friend and I tried the special — Twisted Pop, which is a green tea and original flavour twist with popcorn, strawberries, blueberries and a chocolate wafer. The yogurt was very milky tasting and it was overall quite good. I got to watch one of the girls make the parfait, and the attention to detail is incredible. Definitely recommend!

Small portion alert!
We decided to try the green tea and original mix…
Ordered medium but it felt like mini…
Unlike the parfait, the create your own is like a joke.
Also, the waffle fingers took forever to make this time…
Even though the froyo is still tasty, the consistency is quite bad…
If this small portion equals to medium, I’m not sure if I would ever have the urge to come back again. Just head to the nearest yogen fruz or pink berry!

Came here 2 days ago after lunch. Was a warm day so kind of craved something for dessert. Since I was in the area, I stumbled along here for some froyo.
It’s a modern and clean looking space. Was in a rush so service was very prompt thankfully. I ordered the «Chocolate Devil» which has the original froyo with chocolate pearls, brownie, banana, and wafer stick.
I guess it’s the norm now with these new froyo/​ice cream/​soft serve locations to have pretty small portions. The concoction itself was pretty tasty, interesting combination of chocolate with yogurt but I did not think it was worth $ 7.95 before taxes. Personally I think it’ll taste better with ice cream or soft serve. But nevertheless it was satisfying on a warm sunny day.
Would I be back? Highly unlikely. But would I recommend it to others? Possibly. with caution.

3.5
Clean space with chic interior. Limited seating is available for sit-​ins.
There was only one person working on a sunny Sunday afternoon, which meant service was slowwwwww.
The blended frozen yoghurt and parfaits are yummy but it was a tad expensive for my liking. Portions are on the smaller side (sizes are on par with Soft Peaks).
Useful tip: If you check-​in using Unilocal you get discount coupon for your next purchase.

Visited Styo this evening with my daughter. We used a voucher and the staff was extremely friendly. Usually when one has a voucher, service sucks, which is stupid because you put out the voucher to get customers in. I would never have popped in if it weren’t for the voucher. It’s great to be able to try a new place without worrying about the prices.
I had the Fruity Rainbow and my daughter had the Strawberry Kiss. We both really enjoyed our parfaits. They were delicious and well presented. Because of the voucher, we tried this new place and we will definitely be back. I do have to admit that the prices are a bit high.
(I didn’t rate it five stars because of the high prices.)

SOCIAL SHOPPER! SOCIAL SHOPPER! SOCIAL SHOPPER! Did I mention Social Shopper?
Frozen yogurt and ice cream places are popping up all around the city and it’s no wonder why. This city LOVES frozen dairy and just can’t get enough no matter what the season is. Yea… Vancouverites are NUCKING FUTS! But, admittedly I am one of them (FROYO IS MY JAM)
I came across Styo on. you guessed it SOCIAL SHOPPER! The deal was pretty much a buy one get one free for yogurt parfaits and at $ 7 each regular price the coupon was totally worth it. Is it bad that I gave it as a gift to my GF for Valentine’s Day? LOL… Anyways, It’s a nice bright place with a few different pre-​determined flavours or you can choose your own. They also have smoothies, sandwiches and coffee but I think the parfaits are their biggest draw. We tried the Green tea harmony and the Chocolate devil. Both were very good and tangy as a mofo but nowhere near worth the regular price so do yourself a favor and get a… SOCIAL SHOPPER if it’s out there still.
Wow…you’d think I work for SS or something after reading this… but really I just want people to be able to save money while trying new things: P

Styo (Stahy-​oh), is a stylish and fashionable-​take on the typical frozen yoghurt. They have items (protein smoothies) to address the yoggie/​gym fanatic crowd a the casual dessert-​seekers.
We came at 9:00PM on Wednesday and there was only 1 staff working, however the customer service was still top notch. We were greeted with a friendly, welcoming demeanor. We had a social shopper for 2 savory waffuls and 2 fronados. Typically (with these groupons) we are greeted with reluctant staff but she was still enthusiastic explaining the choices.
The store itself is very modern chic with an open feel. It felt so clean and hygienic that I didn’t find myself worrying about the food preparation (even though it is visible). Definitely recommended as a post-​date coffee/​dessert, good for the family and nice for take out (to be continued on a walk down towards English bay).
We had the Tuna Melt and Turkey Mozzarella Wafful. The fillings are baked right into the waffle batter, so it was nicely warm and melted. The pastry itself was flaky and butter (without being soggy due to the filling). A very heavy but absolutely delicious combination of sweet and savory. The yoghurt is made with fresh dairy and very little sugar, so it’s quite tart. It was an excellent palate cleanser and quite refreshing. We have the green tea twist and mango syrup. The green tea portion was far creamier, edging on Menchie-​level creaminess. It was a nice compliment to the tart original. Whereas the mango syrup added the sweetness to the original, it didn’t taste artificial but we also found no chunks of actual mango (a very through purée?).
The waffuls are filling for someone who eats small portions (like myself) but for a regular person, they might find themselves still a bit hungry. The fronado’s helping was expected, not exactly generous but «hits the spot» for what dessert *should* be.
As froyo seems like the new «it» thing, you can’t expect a cheaper price than market value. If it weren’t for the social shopper, it’d be hard for me to fork out that meal on a student’s budget. It is however a very nice treat =)

I had ordered their green tea harmony and had enjoyed it, the two others I had gone with had ordered customized froyo dishes but had received regular yogurt instead of the green tea flavored.
The design of the building is very nice and clean and the item I had ordered had satisfied my taste, but because of the mistakes makes in the service I couldn’t give them a higher rating than a 3 star.

Came here with a groupon, and honestly, I think that would be the only time I come and have their products. The menu is expensive for what you get I think. I had the ham and swiss filled waffle (which is NOT a waffle, but a version of a croissant) and a small frozen yogurt. I loved the yogurt but it was «mango flavoured» and honestly… I didn’t taste ANY mango. I will be back to try the parfaits (with my groupon) but aside from that probably wont be back on a regular basis

I checked out Styo for the first time after purchasing a 2 for 1 Groupon for 2 small yogurt parfaits.
The service was AMAZING. Every staff member was extremely friendly and happy. They even had a lady who opened the door for me on the way in! With such great service, I really wish I enjoyed the dessert more…
The froyo flavor was a bit odd– a little too sweet and lacking in creaminess.
And It didn’t really ‘hit the spot’ as far as desserts go.
However, the portions were quite large and the fruits, cereal and flavorings made it a lot better.
I ordered the green tea parfait and my date ordered the mango.
The green tea was definitely better– it had a more creamy flavor and didn’t have that sour yogurt taste that cheap froyo often has.
Regardless, even with the 2 for 1 deal, I dont think I’d go back any time soon.
I didn’t try their smoothies at all– hopefully those are more appetizing.

My sister and I tried out Styo using out social shopper deal. The parfaits looks exactly
as the photo shown on there website and in store. The parfaits are on the expensive side in my opinion, ($ 8.25) each. We had the Green Tea Harmony and Mango breakfast, I know this isn’t the season for mangos so we can’t complain. The green tea harmony is quite nice, but because this place is focused on there frozen yogurt, there frozen are not creamy enough, when we were eating it, it was quite icy. In this case I have to say Menchies, Yogen fruz, Qoola, Pink berry and including Ikea Frozen yogurt is better in flavor and texture. If they fix up there frozen yogurt, I think they have a pretty good concept.

Clean new frozen yoghurt place. This place is pretty small and could do with additional seating.
We had the chocolate devil, strawberry frozen yoghurt, green tea harmony and a chocolate wafful.
When we ordered the wafful we expected a traditional waffle with chocolate sauce on top. But what we got was a little different: the chocolate is stuffed inside the wafful and the texture of the wafful is similar to a croissant. It was decent.
The frozen yoghurt is good but they only have two flavours: green tea and vanilla. Also I would prefer more toppings and less yoghurt in their parfaits.

With so many frozen yogurts places and ice cream joints to choose from this place has tough competition and they have failed to convince me it’s worth a return visit. Yogurt was mediocre and the fruit toppings were nothing better than what seemed like canned fruit. The bananas were fresh but that’s about it. The blueberries were mush and the pineapple wasn’t very good either. Two people can easily cost $ 16 and it definitely was not worth that for the poor quality of the product. Save your money and skip this one.

Is Froyo the new cupcakes in town? I’ve booked marked this place since December 21^st since I saw someone else review this (appeared on the front page of Unilocal).
I really wanted to like this place, however, clearly it was an off day or the person at the til/​maker was unable to handle herself.
First they ran out of Strawberries, therefore, the guy I am dating and I settled for «The Rainbow» which was supposed to be a mix fruit medley, however, the fruits that were listed weren’t in our parfait. They should’ve just called it «season fruit mix.»
The guy I am dating and I were the first in before the rush, however we were the last to be served. The lady served everyone else but forgot about us? When she did get to our order not only did she forget what we wanted but she gave us the wrong size to start.
There was a huge rush that came in all at once and then dead, therefore, I can understand if it is not worth it for them to hire an extra hand until summer, however, she was clearly disorganized.
As for the froyo itself whether you got a large or a small it is swirled in a way from the outside only which means that it is hollow in the inside, the illusion that you’re getting a lot of froyo for the high price when really you’re not.
Place is large, modern and clean. A little pricey.

Went there with a social shopper coupon. the lady was friendly and the yogurt parfait was good too. I am not a fan of frozen yogurt, and I rarely go for it. According to my friend, she thinks it’s pretty good compare to other stores. Their taste is much better and you can see it’s not cheap quality. I would say it’s kinda pricy for me if I paid for the regular price. But my friend said if you compare to other stores, it isn’t that pricy as I think. Overall, it was good! So get the deals while it’s still on! Nice experience!

Just walked by with a couple of friends and I had the mango and my buddy had a fruit one.
I’m not a huge fan of parfaits but this one hit the spot. Friendly owner too. I think he was the owner at least. Nice guy.
The price is a tad pricey but given the location and rent, it’s justified. At 8.25 regular price, we Had a 15 percent discount so that was nice. Compared to froyo on cambie, I’d come here instead.

There’s a new frozen yogurt joint in town. It’s a shame they couldn’t capitalize on the warm summer months Vancouver was having but if you’re anything like me, cooler temps is no excuse to skip out on a tasty treat.
The place was having its soft opening so it was immaculately clean. Great service as well.
I got the coffee dose fro-​yo and it was alright. There wasn’t enough coffee taste for me to warrant points on delivery but if I wasn’t expecting coffee, it definitely delivered on what it is, a decent fro-​yo.
The concoction included a generous serving of frozen yogurt, some banana slices, coffee syrup, chocolate, a small ladyfinger, cereal & cookie crumb dusting. Cost was $ 7.45 for that getup (a tad steep) but I’ll definitely head back for one of their berry options at a later date.
