Red Mango

Friendly staff, but Manhattan prices (which takes this down a star, for me).
I had to write a review because I recently tried their peanut butter and banana smoothie as well as their popcorn yogurt.
Can I Just Say… Wowzers!!! TRY BOTH. I know popcorn sounds weird, but this is the most uniquely delicious flavor I have tried in awhile. The peanut butter and banana smoothie is also both delicious and fulfilling!

One of the best yoghurt smoothies that i have ever tasted! Its a must try! So refreshing and healthy!

Small yogurt shop right next to Auntie Annie pretzels and Claires. Its usually really packed on busy days in the mall. Its pretty clean and they had some decent basic yogurt flavors. Nice little toppings to add also. I enjoy my yogurt and they even have a small seating area if its not taken up by shoppers. I enjoy there yogurt.

So I don’t like plan old yogurt but I’m in love with frozen yogurt… I think because it kinda taste like ice cream lol… staten island doesn’t have that much yogurt places to chose from… sadly… But this place is actually pretty descent… I remember the first time ever I tried frozen yogurt was a few years ago in red mango located in manhattan… I thought it tasted like heaven… And I got hooked… even though red mango is a chain yogurt shop does not mean the quality is the same as well… This place Is kinda limited to certain Flavors and toppings… which I could care less, but service sucks… There’s two register and most of the time one register would be open… just one! even though there’s like three/​four people working behind the counter…

The dark chocolate sorbetio is a must try. It looks like poo but if poo tasted this good… Added oreos and peanut butter cups to the dark chocolate sorbetio, amazing.

What’s up pompadours, Red Mango has some great yogurt and toppings except this one is seriously slacking on both. Come later then 5PM and something’s bound to be missing. One night it was fruit, another night it was plaint tart yogurt. Another night it was containers. That’s right fellas, unless you wanted to catch yogurt in your cupped, desperate hand and add toppings one handed you couldn’t get yogurt. Whatever the case, when it’s stocked, it’s good.

Ok. I’m really happy that there’s a Red Mango on the island, because the second-​rate froyo places around here just aren’t cutting it. However, I’m just not a big fan of self-​serve froyo because things get messy and it tends to be a turn off. I do understand though that self serve froyo is very popular everywhere. I guess I’m just a traditionalist since I remember the days when Red Mango and Pinkberry first came to the city and they served and topped everything FOR you. My issue with this Red Mango isn’t the self-​serve, it’s the toppings. What I love about Red Mango is that they have unique and usually healthy toppings, not the generic cereals and sprinkles you see at other froyo places on the island, so I was really disappointed to find that this Red Mango just rolled with the demands of the area and gave a tiny selection of fruit and a huge selection of sugary crap toppings that I could buy at a deli. I guess I understand though since they need to stay in business and it’s better to have a Red Mango on the island than to not have one at all.

I love Red Mango! But I hate self serve. It kind of grosses me out. I also hate that they don’t have smaller cups available. I can never gauge how much I’m taking and always end up taking too little or too much, I want it to be just right! My favorite flavor is the nutty potion, that stuff is ridiculous! I usually stay away from toppings because I don’t know or trust whoever has had their hands in there. That nutty potion doesn’t need any toppings though. So good.

Red mango is one of my favorite froyo places. I’ve been to I think three now. One in boston, one in the city and one in staten island. The one I went to in the city was right next to a pinkberry, literally, 2 stores down. That red mango was self serve and then they have a person standing there monitoring and cleaning and stuff. You can sample whatever you’d like (the cups are on top of the machines, or you ask for one). The one thing I didnt like about this particular red mango is that the little sample cups are hidden behind the counter and you have to ask, and they give you one! There is like 8 flavors, and when they change them from like 4 different ones than they had last time, you want to try them to see if you want to get a new flavor. I feel like it is unsanitary to use the same cup to try the flavors, but I am not going to go up and ask them for 4 cups after each one. They should either ask you how many or something. I just think its unsanitary I can see if they are trying to save money or something with the cups, but really? How much do they cost and how much is the business making? Make sure to ask for a red mango rewards card.

There are soo many yogurt shops all over SI, but this yogurt shop kicks all the others. It’s a self serve shop, with great flavors and fresh fruits and toppings.
It goes by the pound, so fill that cup good.
Try the mango and pomegranate flavor, it’s very yummy. It’s all so good.
They have mango, strawberries, granola, coconut and other toppings that are just great.
If I were here everyday, I would get sooo fat, but it’s yogurt, so it’s all good!!!

A smattering of some of the finest flavors of yogurt? Check.
Excellent variety of toppings? Check.
Friendly staff? Check.
Price that’s in line with it’s competition (as kinda expensive as that may be)? Check.
And still more healthy than Carvel down the block? Sold.
(But the Hylan Blvd. spot is better, more spacious and not located in a packed mall.)

Tried some frozen chocolate and banana yogurt today with cookie dough, oreos, choc chips… NOT good at all. RM claims that everything there is natural and free of chemicals which if true is great, but damn it needs to taste good too. It was watery and the flavors were way off. The banana tasted too sweet and very artificial. The chocolate flavor wasn’t chocolate enough. I walked about 10 feet from the store and threw it into the first garbage can I could find. I wouldn’t go back. Makes me furious they took Mrs. Fields out of the mall for THIS!

LOVE IT! FRESH FRUIT! VARIOUS DELICIOUS FLAVORS! Ask for a free sample if you’re unsure which one you’ll like! Careful though, adding all those toppings will surely increase the price. It’s based on weight. I chose Pumpkin Pie with granola, almonds, and almost all the fruits available! mmmm mmm Goood! Don’t eat it too fast, I know it yummaaayyyy but you don’t wanna get Brain Freeezzzee!
