If you’re looking for a sweet frozen treat, come to Golden Spoon Frozen Yogurt. Located in the Stevenson Ranch Plaza, the Golden Spoon is special, right down to the actual golden spoons! Come on in and enjoy the classic ice cream shop atmosphere. Because so many people go out to dinner in the area, there are always a lot of people coming in for dessert! When you get to the counter, be prepared to make some decisions. There are so many flavors from chocolate and vanilla to additions like fruit, graham crackers and candies (try the popular “red velvet”). Unlike other fro-yo spots that charge by the ounce, at Golden Spoon there are three different sizes to suit anyone’s appetite. And all refills are just $2!

Locals have been raving for fifteen years about the high quality, affordable Italian food knocked out by this lunch and dinner fave. Owner Angie Caruso keeps everything in the family—each and every one of her kids works there in some capacity, which carries through into the welcoming service and fantastic southern Italian food. They specialize in the bold cuisine of Sicily, and are especially proud of their seafood selections, with tons of fresh fish flown in daily for a wide variety of specials. Pasta is made fresh in-house daily, and it’s spectacular in consistency and flavor. Fresh focaccia is also served at every table as a starter, and it’s great. The wine cellar is well stocked with both Italian and California vintages, and the servers are excellent at recommending pairings for your meal. On nice days, eat outside on the covered patio and make sure to finish off with a panna cotta for dessert.

Spumoni is a frozen Italian treat, and you’ll get some of the best at the Spumoni Café. But there’s more than ice cream at the Spumoni Café, you also get a delicious, authentic Italian meal. Located in the Stevenson Ranch Plaza, you’ll like the casual ambiance of the Spumoni Italian Cafe. The Dining area is modern, and there’s also nice patio seating. Pizza and pasta are the menu highlights, but there’s also a “gnocchi bar,” where you can get the doughy treats with any number of delicious toppings. Of course, to end your meal, there’s always the spumoni! But the café also has one of the best cannolis in town. Spumoni Italian Café is open Monday through Saturday.
