Editorial review from Citysearch 2/16/2014

If you can handle the parking situation then this is the best choose your own adventure ice cream place around. They always have a line for good reason. Flavors like Snickerdoodle Crunch, and Rosewater Ripple will entice. more

Mmmmm.... 3/21/2011

Best ever build your own ice cream place. They have a large variety of ice cream that you can select from here and toppings as well. Like cereals, candy bars, and fruits. There is usually a line at night though even on cold days. What you want to order here is up to you! but whatever it is i would recommend adding a twinkie to it! It makes the ice cream creamy! So I recently came to this place and made myself a: Vanilla twinkie rice crispies oreo This was super delicious! more

Makes both your tummy and your heart happy 1/12/2010

Inspiration for Cold Stone? This place is the original! With all the frozen yogurt places popping up all over, you'd think 21 Choices' business would be lacking, but it continues to boom. People line up for this organic frozen yogurt because, simply put, it is the best! For starters, their flavors like ""white butterfinger magic"" and ""lemon cookie bar"" already have toppings mixed into them. And it gets better once you add your own mix-ins the same way you would at Cold Stone. They have pretty much every topping you could imagine so be prepared to experience some major indecision-but in a good way. If the frozen yogurt itself wasn't enough to put a smile on your face, the staff here is so incredibly friendly, it's near impossible to leave in a bad mood. Pros: Friendly staff, best frozen yogurt, organic Cons: Traffic to Pasadena=no fun more

Best Fro Yo EVER. 7/3/2008

I love this place. I live in Downtown L.A., but I have no problem making the drive down to Pasadena for this delightful treat. The frozen yogurt is always the highest quality - very light and creamy and smooth, with no weird aftertaste or that sour yogurt flavor. It's impossible to believe this stuff is a low-cal treat. The flavors change daily and are posted on their website. The best I've had there is Cookies & Cream, but it's impossible to go wrong, even with their standard Vanilla. The best part about this place is the endless array of mix-ins. The combination possibilities will stretch your creative culinary muscle. Try pairing banana and macadamia nuts in Valharona Chocolate, or add animal crackers to Vanilla Bean. They have every mix-in fathomable, from fresh fruits to cereal to Twinkies. The only drawbacks are its location, parking (downtown Pasadena can get crazy at night), and the fact that there is ALWAYS a line. But the line moves fast, and the wait (and the drive) is totally worth it. Pros: Great frozen yogurt, large selection of mix-ins Cons: Location, parking, line more

Cold Stone without the calories!!!! 5/28/2008

I love this place!!! My friends and I have definitely gotten into the southern california forzen yogurt craze, but I often find myself missing the real desserty feel of ice cream with mix ins (cold stone?), 21 choices fills that void without the high calories of ice cream! The yogurt is alot creamier than other frozen yogurt places, but still not too filling. I love that they give you a decent sized portion of mix-ins and actually mix them in like cold stone, not just place a few on top like other frozen yogurt places. Its fun to try their daily made flavors and they have TONS of mix-ins which give you endless creative options. On top of all this it is great that they use biodegradeable bowls and spoons and use organic and fresh ingredients. Its totally worth the wait or the slightly higher cost. Pros: Great flavors, good portions, awsome service Cons: usually a wait more

the best yogurt, period 5/16/2008

creative. friendly staff. worth the wait. there will always be one flavor you are in love with for that day - and if all else fails, there's chocolate and vanilla! more

Healthy Yogurt 7/25/2007

It is very creamy yogurt. Check out for the daily special. It should be your first time to check out when you step in. more

Dreamy Fro Yo 1/5/2007

Even though the place is tiny and always crowded, I love the variety and creamy deliciousness at this place. It's kinda like Coldstone in that they mix in different toppings, but it's better because they change the flavors of their treats periodically. It's like the proverbial box of chocolates...you never know what you'll be able to get! Pros: Friendly service and really good frozen yogurt Cons: VERY small space, nowhere to really chill and enjoy your dessert more

Great yogurt and customer service! 11/22/2006

Located on a corner near a bookstore and some great eateries in Old Town, this 21 Choices is a great place to grab a cold treat after lunch on a warm sunny day. The staff is very friendly here and have made some great recommendations. more

Pick up a cold treat 11/20/2006

This is a great place to pick up your dessert. While there's not a great place to sit with your fro yo - you can get it and walk around old town pas. They will mix any toppings you like into your choice of yogurt just like coldstone. They also have ready made flavors that are extremely tasty! My favorite is Cookie Parade, which is vanilla and mothers cookies - and something else that I can't really identify, but it's yummy none-the-less. \r more

Awesome Frozen Yogurt! 11/16/2006

I never went in there because it always seemed so crowded, but now I see why! It's amazing! The staff was super friendly and knowledgable. They let me taste my creation before I paid to make sure I was totally satisfied. And needless to say, I was. :) Pros: Great Fro Yo Cons: Sometimes crowded more

Good FroYo 10/8/2006

I got a small with half vanilla and half peach pineapple sorbet. Portion was good and it was really yummy. I like the vanilla frozen yogurt because it had nice flavor not like the vanilla extract flavor. The texture was awesome too. You can get topping and they will mix it for you similiar to coldstone. I didn't get any mix ins since I don't like melted ice cream or frozen yogurt. They change the flavors of frozen yogurt from time to time. That day I went, they had vanilla, peach pineapple sorbet, root beer and chocolate. However, the place seemed kinda dirty. The staff's clothing and apron had chocolate and other mystery stuff all over. The frozen platform they do the mix in seemed kinda icky (that's why I skipped the mix in). Fortunately, I didn't get sick from eating it so I think you'll be fine. :) Pros: Frozen Yogurt Cons: Slow Service, Cleanliness more

Delish Frozen Yogurt! 6/6/2005

The frozen yogurt here is out-of-this-world delicious! There is a variety of tastey flavors, you can even design your own flavor. A must vist place if you live in Los Angeles or are visiting! Pros: Flavor Variety, Healthy, Customer Service Cons: No parking more

Great yogurt! 3/21/2005

This place has fabulous yogurt that comes in many flavors. The best part about it is that you can pick your ingredient and they will mix it into a vanilla base. The mix is delicious and you can definitely taste everything you mix in. more
