Solid gelateria with bold flavors, but room for improvement in texture and service. The pistachio and caramelized peanut flavors were particularly delicious - rich, nutty, and well balanced. That said, the texture of some catemelized peanut flavour could have been a bit creamier. Service-wise, things were a bit underwhelming. The staff got the job done efficiently, but weren’t particularly friendly or welcoming. All in all, a worthwhile stop for flavor-forward gelato, especially if you’re a fan of nut-based varieties. With a bit more warmth in service and a tweak in texture, it could be really great.

Dopo la cena in taverna dove abbiamo saltato il dolce... Abbiamo deciso di andare in questa gelateria artigianale... In una traversa del corso (sono anni che ci vado alla fuga del bove, e non sapevo Dell esistenza di questa gelateria, soprattutto xké rimane un pó nascosta)... Ambiente molto carino e servizio velocissimo... Tantissimi gusti.. Dove c'è sul serio l imbarazzo della scelta. Un gusto ed una consistenza di cremosità eccezionale. Con 3 euro... Un gelato che qualcuno.. Ha faticato a finirlo. Ottimo... Da non perdere.

Also das war seit langem das beste Eis was ich gegessen habe ... und wir sind seit einer guten Woche auf einem Roadtrip durch Italien. Ich kann die 4,1 Sterne nicht nachvollziehen. Freunde, Geht in diesen Laden und esst Eis! :D Dieser Laden sollte mindestens 4,8 Sterne haben. Wir sind auf die Empfehlung eines Einheimischen hier her. Wirklich, wirklich gut und sehr freundlich. Achtet nur drauf, dass ihr die Waffel bekommt, die ihr am liebsten mögt. Es gibt verschiedene.
