Super leckeres italienisches Eis.

What a delicious stop. Our restaurant didn’t have any desserts but recommended this place. A wonderful variety too. They have sorbet as well. The staff are fantastic too! I was able to taste a few to make sure I made the right choice.

It does feel a little odd an cramped inside though. The original pictures gave such a simplistic and beautiful feel. Currently there’s so much stuff.

There are two cases to view with choices. Which you almost miss if you do not walk around to the other side.

Excellent ice cream! I like that you always get three flavors, independent of your chosen size. I always take Pistacchio since you need a good quality of nuts to make outstanding icecream with this flavor - and this place did not let me down. Very bold, but smooth texture. Fantastic and highly recommended!

Incredible variety of flavors and the guys behind the counter were so kind and patient. They have plenty of seating and all in all, you're certain to have a happy experience with loads of delicious ice cream 😄
Shoutout to young Ali, who was so kind, patient and happy while taking our order.
Thank you Gelato Love, we will be back for sure!

Lovely place for after dinner espresso. Or before dinner, or whenever!! I just love that they were open late. Authentic, welcoming, delicious, cozy. So many Gelato flavors to choose from, so creamy, so delish! A few non dairy options as well. Best part, they have oatmilk for their coffee/espresso!! And the cups are so cute and authentically Italian.
The lady working was so ALIVE and engaged in the customers experience, but, not overbearing or pushing us to decide. Amazing service! The gentleman working with her was the same. I felt like they cared for what we wanted.

Thank you for allowing such a wonderful place and experience to catch up with good friends on a Friday night.

Very good! You can choose up to three flavors in one cup. I had two dairy free options and they were both so delicious!

Disclosure: I used to make French pastries for this place years back when it was still Gaia Gelato, before the original owner Cristina left and went back to Rome. She used to make REAL authentic gelato with authentic recipes, using fresh REAL ingredients and fruits. Well this was my first visit in years and I was absolutely astonished, absolutely TERRIBLE QUALITY. Came on a Friday night to have Indian food and after the group decided to try the 'new' gelato. We saw the new owner walk by about 30 minutes prior with a cart, presumably bringing in fresh gelato from their satellite location. So we expected a nice selection of gelato, but instead we were shocked to see the whole front display was completely empty. The remaining small display had 3 flavors that were sitting empty and the rest looked, well, sad with a strange looking texture. I warned the group it did not look good, but they tried a 'small' anyway (which is more like an extra mini). OMG, absolutely the worst tasting gelato or frozen dessert I've had in my life. My message to the new owners: if you new product with fake sugar does not have a great shelf life, PLEASE toss it and replace with new product. Do not sell something that is not edible. The mango on its best day would've been inedible. It had tiny cubes of something in it that WASN'T mango, I don't know what it was. Tasted absolutely terrible. The cookies and cream tasted so odd, whipped like it had lots of air in it, barely sweet and the texture was even worse than the mango. This place has gone DOWNHILL in a major way. Even the once simplistic European-like decor and furnishings is now gone and has turned into a cluttered mess. The place is a hard NO for me.

Oh wow! The gelato here is really yummy. I've been to Italy and had some real tasty Italian gelatos and this place brought back the good memories of my Italy trip.

Try the double chocolate and the Carlsbad strawberry (from local strawberry farms btw). I always get these because they make them the best here!
