“Cold front is back open! While possibly on the pricey side for just a cone this isn’t regular ice cream! This hand made gourmet gelato with lots of interesting and unique flavours - even for those who are vegan! Definitely worth a stop! You can even get pints or have them delivered! I’d highly recommend! Or have a sit down in the warm store. It’s never too cold for ice cream!“

“Original Post Early 2023We went to Milano’s two weeks ago and we were disappointed. We have been there dozens of times but this time it was terrible.The special was very small portioned along with the calamari appy was cold and was the smallest portion I have seen for the place. At $16 it added up to almost a dollar a piece. The chicken was advertised as two pieces of breast meat but I didn’t expect them to slice one small breast in half and call it two. I also don’t like the fact they charge the MSP tax even though they have raised their prices and made the portions smaller.It is time to find a new favorite restaurant.Update April 2024We have given them another chance and they have returned to the top of our restaurant list in Nanaimo. We have been back twice now and are very happy with them again.“
