“Amazing ice cream and even better service!
The ice cream here is absolutely incredible — rich, flavorful, and clearly made with care. What really stood out, though, was the service. The young man working in the afternoon was extremely kind, friendly, and helpful. He made the experience even better with his great attitude and attention.
Highly recommended. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Abuela María is my favorite. Will visit more often now that they are open..“

“Visited salt and straws this past Saturday and was pleasantly greeted with a nice friendly smile by Sam, she offered me various samples of the limited addition flavors, she told me to combine creepy crawly critters with honey lavender which to me was the perfect combination i’ve ever tried on this extremely hot and humid day, store very clean and waffle cones were perfectly cooked and crafted, Special and Big Thanks to Sam for your lovely, warm, and infectious energy that made a day feel so special, giving me the boost of energy to motivate me throughout my busy day.“

“This place is amazing. We are regular now. Delfina was amazing. She sowed us different flavors and helped us to make the best decision. We had the Dubai chocolate with vodka ice cream plus a dubai chocolate bar and a flight to go. So so good. We will come back next week to try the new flavor of mezcal with mango! Sounds amazing!!!! Oh and the new packaging with Brito design is so beautiful“

“Great paletas !!! Lots of flavors“

“A new favorite for our gelato-loving family. We tried several flavors and it's hard to choose! All of them were great. You can't go wrong with the Dulce de leche. The coconut is great, too. The lemon is so refreshing and the texture is meringue like, totally lovable.
They serve wafer cookies freshly made in store. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I wish I lived closer, I would become a regular. If you love Argentinian style gelato, you have to give this place a try. Parking (street and public garage) around the block.“

“Really neat little place, friendly people, delicious treats!“

“Yes, they are expensive….but soooo good that you will want to come back.“

“delicioso helado para adultos, el local, muy bueno.“

“My 2 kids and my wife absolutely loved this place!! Highly recommend. We chose this over Gelato and didnt regret it. This pic is- the cookie monster cookie top with cookies and creme ice cream and a brownie bottom for under $11. You can add sprinkles or chunks of candy bars or broken up cookies for extra fee. Bathrooms were super clean.“

“Refreshing to find ice cream in Miami. Everything is gelato. The flavors are traditional and unique. Good flavors with a good creamy texture. Tells me a decent quality. We had three scoop bowls with hot fudge and various toppings. Comfortable seating and plenty. Overall a good ice cream spot in a world of gelato. The prices a bit steep but it’s a treat.“

“The best ice cream ever!!!!“

“The ice cream is very very delicious would come Again if I was down here very very respectful and polite customer service. Gives samples before you buy. Highly recommend“

“Absolutely amazing experience! I had the best gluten-free and vegan cones of my life here! The belgium dark chocolate gelato ice-cream on top was divine and just the right amount of sweet! The owner of this place has the warmest soul and such a strong vision for this place! The customer service and assistance he provided us with was absolutely premium! Cannot recommend this place enough! Must try place if you visit Miami!“

“The best gelato in the 🌎 🥰“

“So delicious omg that purple potato yummy yummy“

“If you're in Miami and battling the heat, craving a delicious ice cream to cool down, Cielito Wynwood is the perfect spot. They boast over 46 flavors, including Dubai chocolate, mint lemonade, lime pie and more. I personally tried the pineapple with jalapeño and tahini, and it was absolutely delicious! Come check them out – the prices are fair, and the place is super cute for photos, right in the heart of Wynwood.“

“We stopped in with our two kids and they were very patient and offered a number of samples. Did not feel rushed at all and they were very kind. All the flavors we tested were super tasty and creamy. Offered us a little water bottle for the kids too. And the iced oat latte was amazing! V impressed :)“

“I recommend that place for the family .nice place ,they have variety of food,we tried the pizza and the panini was delicious. My kids tried the rolled ice cream ,everyday now they asking me to go there !“

“Great ice cream and very friendly staff.“

“This is not your typical ice cream shop. It’s a haven for experimental ice cream connoisseurs—the kind of place that turns ingredients that should be forbidden in ice cream into something unexpectedly fabulous. Their seasonal menu is always an adventure; only Salt & Straw could make an elote ice cream with cotija cheese and corn taste genuinely delicious.

They let you sample every flavor so you know exactly what you’re getting into. My personal favorite is the Salty Donut guava and cheese, and another standout is the honey lavender.“

“Delicious bubble waffle ice cream that was made and presented beautifully by Brianna. We got the berry bubble waffle, thai tea with boba, and lychee lemonade, which I would skip next time. The thai tea boba was great though and waffle with ice cream was incredible“

“Martina exelente Anfitriona fuimos muy bien atendidos“

“Took my daughter to Florida for her birthday and came across this place“

“Love Japow! The Strawberry Daifuku flavor is exceptional. One the best shaved ice I've ever had. It's so delicate, creamy, and delicious. The quality of the chocolate, the fresh strawberries , and mini mochi take it over the top. It's nice they use natural flavors. Loved the service. We had no idea what to order and the lady there helped us figure out what we should try by asking us if we preferred fruity or creamy flavors or both. We decided chocolate and strawberries would be best, and she was right! Best choice! This place is special. Whenever in Design District will be back for sure.“

“Wow! I can’t beleive how good the ice cream is and service was spectacular I loved Yesenia’s willingness to help me choose. I’ve never been and now it will be my new favorite ice cream spot . I couldn’t wait and ate my ice cream before the photo it was that good.“

“Excelente Gelato italiano“

“Best mexican paletas in Miami. I always stop here when in town. They have a huge selection of paletas. I don't buy anything else other than the paletas. The family that runs it are so sweet and polite. FYI cash only so come prepared. The price is reasonable too.“

“Clean and very nice friendly service as I I highly recommend it!!!🙂👍👍“

“This place is just WOW. I was just walking by the Espanola way and craving an ice-cream.
I found “THE PLACE”.
Marcelo was amazing, kind and patient and let me try a lot of flavors before choosing my gelato.
Thank you guys.“

“Hot Friday in Miami Beach. Wish to cool off with something cold and delicious? Try Rita's just off Lincoln Road on Collins.there is a lovely manager I met a couple days ago. She requested a Google Maps review so The Universe delivers. She also likes to read and is reading Spiritual books. I turn her onto Metaphysics Leadership & Politics and she suggested I get it published in Spanish. Great idea to manifest! My favorite is the mango Italian ice. Delicious!“

“I've tried many gelato places in south beach and so far this is the best one.
Some of them melt right away and some are a little too sweet. I tried hazelnut and kinder and the creamy texture and sweetness was perfect, also I did not notice it melting right away while eating it outside at around 76° in December. This is not a problem for me, but it's just different than the other places I've been to. I tried a different place the day before that had a 5 star rating and the ice cream was too sweet and it was melting right away. This one should have a 5 star rating so now there's no point in going anywhere else for gelato.“

“Very good place to enjoy a delicious ice cream and have a good time with your children.“

“I took my mom here for ice cream on a random afternoon. I was pleasantly surprised by its prices and just old school charm. We had soft serve in cones nothing fancy but just as effective (and very affordable) on a hot Miami day. We sat outside (they only have outdoor seating) on one of their little picnic tables and enjoyed people watching. All in all, I'm so happy a little place still like this still exists in Miami.“

“I love this place! There is such a wide selection of ice cream its overwhelming! In a cool way obvi. But the best part was probably my server Maria. We went during an art festival and it was extremely busy but she handled it so precisely. She walked us through our options with the utmost patience and humor. I would definitely go back there just for her.“

“This is what you call an immaculate business. The attention to detail, variation, customer service is top tier. I’m not glazing I just never have seen a gelato spot have this much specialty. My experience proves why they have 4 plaques of best gelato in Miami“

“Tried the vegan, lemon gelato popsicle at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden today & now I need to stock my freezer!! So refreshing. Just the right tartness.“

“einzigartig und extrem leckeres gerolltes Eis mit Zusätzen wie Kinderbueno oder Walnüssen und Brownie, auf jeden Fall probieren!“

“Very cool way of making ice cream. Person working gave some great recommendations.“

“As usual, Pura Vida is awesome. Today we not only got lunch but also ice cream and we were lucky to meet Kim and Dani. They were great. And of course Cami is always soooooo sweet to my 6 yr old daughter. We love this place and the people they hire are awesome humans.“

“Always great ice cream and great customer service! You can try a bunch of flavors. They have decent sized gluten free menu (recommend googling online), vegan options, and dairy-free options. The location is also fantastic because you can walk Lincoln Road after grabbing ice cream which is always a lively activity.“

“Stopped by Freddo on Española Way and it definitely hit the spot. The gelato was super creamy and packed with flavor — the strawberry tasted fresh and not overly sweet. You can tell they use quality ingredients. The texture was smooth and rich without feeling too heavy.
The atmosphere around Española Way adds to the experience too. It’s a great place to grab something cold while walking around and people-watching. Service was friendly and the portions were fair.“

“I stopped by this Dairy Queen Treats and got an Oreo Blizzard, and it really hit the spot. The ice cream was super creamy and they didn’t skimp on the Oreo pieces, which I loved. Everything tasted fresh and well mixed. Service was quick and the staff was nice, and the place looked clean too. Definitely a solid choice if you’re craving something sweet—I’d come back for sure.“
