Tutti Frutti Frozen Yogurt

This is my favorite frozen yogurt, and I’ve tried them all (and all across the country), from Pinkberry to Yogurtland. It’s tucked away and doesn’t look like much, but it really is worth your time. They have rich, creamy milk-​based flavors and fresh, flavorful fruit blends. The sorbets are vegan, which is a great find for those of you out there craving something sweet. The gummy bears are amazing! PS — it’s super cheap!

They have a few tables and not alot of space also getting parking is a mission you have to be lucky to get a spot like I was today. But it taste good and better than Pinkberry with an emphasis on better than, Pinkberry.

It’s always a sad day in the yogurt world when there is an opportunity for froyo greatness that falls quite short.
Yes, I’m talking about you Tutti Frutti near USC.
Of course, a vacation means a froyo exploration. I couldn’t resist going basically just downstairs to try out this location.
Disappointment.
Flavors — disappointing. I love the sweet flavors and all the flavors were fruity or boring (I’m talking to you chocolate and vanilla).
Toppings — boring.
Location — small in size and number of machines.
Froyo dreams — melted.

Four stars for this reason: the small size limits the number of machines and therefore flavors offered. Other tutti fruttis out in LA offer double the amount of yogurt flavors.
The only other con is this: why is there is a field for gratuity on the receipt? What is it that the employees of Tutti Frutti would do for customers which deserves a gratuity? Now I understand a server takes your order, transmits it to someone else, and then brings you the food. But what does a yogurt sales clerk do that is analagous to that?
I don’t know. Do you?
When you go to another retail establishment, they sell you products, and the clerk is a medium. They don’t ask for gratuity. That is reserved for services. I find it awkward to see gratuity fields on receipts, which then require me to put $ 0.00 or an X in the gratuity field. This extra little action on my part makes me feel uncomfortable and strange, especially because it is for a job that doesn’t provide a service. All you do is weigh the yogurt and charge people, and answer their yogurt questions. If you can justify a gratuity for that job, then you can weasel a gratuity for pretty much ANY other retail job. If you wanna piss people off even more in retail, start offering the gratuity option on ALL retail receipts, whether or not a service is provided.
My rant is now finished.
By the way the yogurt was great and so were my toppings

Found this place while shopping near the fashion district. It got super hot so I found refuge with some froyo and AC. Thank you God!
Oh and great staff and service!

Ok, so in full disclosure, this place is ok. My rating is based on a single employee, who has so much of an attitude that I’m going out of my way to write this. The frozen yogurt is decent here. Not as good as yogurtland, but I like to switch it up. The vanilla is best, but it’s often jamming up or super runny.
Let me be clear that I’m not someone tasting flavors frequently (truthfully never) or giving attitude, then buying 4 oz. I go in and buy a few large cups full for myself and friends usually. I’ve spent up to $ 25. Most of the staff is kind and pleasant. One girl (young Asian w/​glasses) gives me hateful looks every time I go in. She monitors as I add toppings, and gets pissy if I spill anything (which is somewhat inevitable w/​self-​serve). I actually make a point to clean up, too!
Five star card has a system where you get points for each purchase, and at 10 you get a free 10oz. All of the other employees say it is 1point per (10?) oz. This girl insists it is 1 per cup… Which is a rip off if you get big cups. I checked the five star site, and it does say 1/​yogurt, but another employee told me it was 1/​10oz of yogurt since the free yogurt was 10oz off. This complaint is not over the # of points I get. This is over an employee having an attitude like she owns the place and doesn’t need any customers. This has happened before, and many times I’ve stopped going for up to a month just because of this girl. Today, I asked to speak to a different employee about points and she said no, he wasn’t the manager. I asked to speak to the manager and she said no. I wasn’t about to hold up the big line behind me, but that is not alright to refuse to let me speak to a manager. Plus why would every other employee say something incorrect?
When I left, I made a point to say thank you five times… The first time or two, I thought maybe she didn’t hear me. By the fifth, it was clear that she was continuing to exude b****y sass.
I hope management takes this to heart and does something about this girl. With the number of frozen yogurt places around, they can’t afford to lose business over an awful employee. At least keep her in back, so customers aren’t walking out angry or hurt. Even though she seems to have special vengeance with me, she isn’t cherry blossoms to other customers
Will I be back? Yes, since I have points saved. But if I see this girl in there, I will turn around from now on. Their yogurt isn’t worth the attitude received.

So nice place and clean! Yogurt is so healthy and fancy. Tutti Frutti is the best. The atmosphere is so kind!

This Tutti Fruitti is deep in Trojan territory. It’s a compact fro yo location, but it had a wide variety of flavors and toppings.
Bf and I had the taro, which is our favorite. The chocolate was decadent despite it’s fro yo character.

Visited this place randomly when i was in town. Extremely satisfied with the location and staff. Great yogurt, good prices and always friendly staff. Couldnt have asked for more during my visit. I dont often eat frozen yogurt, but my girlfriend like it more than icecream, thus we stopped in and glad that we did.
Keep up the good work, will come back next time we are in town.

I would have rated it higher if it wasn’t for the sourpuss face cashier and the fact that it is hard to find parking… overall just an ok experience for a $ 5 cup of yogurt. Attention cashier, if you really hate your job that much, you should quit! You are ruining the experience for everybody else. Otherwise, the flavors are good and they have great selections of toppings. If you can get over not ever being greeted or helped by an employee, then this is the place for you.

Tutti Fruitti in general is my favorite frozen yogurt chain in LA, I like the texture and flavors the best and the price is good as far as froyo prices here go, but as for this particular location:
Pros:
+Great selection of toppings
+Always delicious stock flavors
+Some really good rotating flavors — Honeydew isn’t there often but it is my favorite frozen yogurt flavor ever anywhere.
+Five Star cards rewards, I’ve gotten a few free through mine already
Cons:
–Not a lot of flavor options available at a time as this is a very very small Tutti Fruitti
–It’s not really eat in friendly, there’s 2 tiny tiny tables but I never like eating in here and there’s no outdoor options in this strip mall.
–parking — the strip mall parking lot can be a mess (if it’s full just park on a Fig at a meter)

There are only 6 flavors.
The yogurt station is super small and only one person can get yogurt at a time. The chocolate was good but everything else tasted icy.

Omg best frozen yogurt ever I love this place! The staff is really helpful and sweet my first time in there omg they really helped me lol we didn’t know it was self serve when we first went in so they showed us how to work the machines by giving us free samples (that wasn’t a perk if you want to test it b4 you buy it they let you) and I don’t know why it has 2 dollar signs this place is really affordable I didn’t even get a large I got a medium and it still lasted 2 days for 5 dollars and the don’t go by what size you get it’s by the weight (i added allot of strawberries and cherries) you can’t beat that and all the toppings were super fresh tell everyone you know about Tutti Frutti!

I LOVE this place. It is clean and the yogurt is super good… not too sweet. They have lots of toppings to choose from and the price is very affordable. not expensive at all. I normally spend $ 2.50 and come out with a lot of yogurt and a little bit of topping. I’m not too big on having a million toppings so I am sure if I got more toppings it would be more expensive.
I actually like that it is not insanely crowded there, it is a pleasant experience. Parking can be difficult if you go around lunch time because of the restaurants surrounding the place. I would avoid going during lunch.
I am a frequent customer of this place and if you are, you can take advantage of the buy 9 get your 10^th free card that they give you. I live here in the summer.

Such a bummer that this place is not getting the attention it deserves since USC students prefer Yogurtland and 21 Choices for random reasons ranging from preexisting fan base to being located in a more convenient shopping mall.
I was pleasantly surprised and impressed that Tutti Frutti had wonderful tasting yogurt. They were by far the most fresh and smooth that I’ve had in the area. Their six flavors are limited but each of them could beat any of their competitors’ options. I’ve had Taro at other frozen yogurt places before and have never liked it but the one here was wonderful with very subtle taro tastes which was very tasty and easily mixed with most of their other flavors. Definitely would recommend.
Their fruit toppings looked very fresh and they also had a smoothie option for $ 3.95 which sounds amazing. USC students get an additional 10% discount with their student IDs.
Full disclosure: I would probably rate this a strong 4 or 4.5 if I were honest but with this being only the seventh review of the place, I went with the 5 so that more people will come here before it turns into USC’s thirty-​third Yoshinoya.

wooowwwww i never seen anything like this before. i felt like a little kid in a candy store when i first walked in. I have not been to any other location the store is actually far i wish there was some closer. because i absolutely love this place. Great customer service they have a clean establishment and are very helpful. before trying the yogurt i had wanted a sample. :(they don’t give samples. But the workers like to make there customers happy so they found a way to give me a sample of each yogurt. The yogurt is not expensive and is very reasonable, they also have there toppings with the choices of either having fruit or candy i am a very picky eater so i usually don’t like to try none if the extra topping things. oh yeah by the way the yogurt comes out really thick but melts really fast so you have to hurry and eat it then i want more… but this place is awesome…:)

Very clean, not to expensive and the fruit selection is pretty good

I really like the yogurt flavors here, especially the fruity ones like strawberry. It never really bothered me that they don’t have as many flavors as Pinkberry since I rarely get more than 3 flavors in one cup.
Pros:
–Nice selection of toppings, plenty of yummy strawberries
–They give out stamp cards so if you go there enough you will earn a free yogurt
–USC student discount
Cons:
–The yogurt seems to melt really quickly! Even on not-​so-​hot days
–A bit more expensive than Pinkberry (by ~5 cents per ounce I think)

Enough toppings, clean, and nice staff.

Since I’ve never actually been to a Tutti Frutti I was pretty interested being the only self serve froyo place by USC. Too bad it kinda sucks.
Just opened, right next to La Taquiza.
Here is the run down:
–Have only 6 flavors of yogurt, taro was ok, the rest were soooo tarty.
–Have very little toppings, and no mochi!!! (They said they would be getting it soon hopefully, but they don’t really have space for many toppings anyways.
–They illegally have a $ 3 limit for credit cards.
–Don’t list their price (will probably put it up soon?), but I think it was about 30 cents an oz from the cost of my stuff.
–Small and cramp space.
Only if I am very desperate will I go back here again, other wise I doubt I’ll go.
