Very charming coffee and ice cream shop. They make their own desserts and gelato. Coffee is amazing and the service is very good. There is wine available and indoor as well as outdoor seating. Highly recommend this restaurant.

I have been to this cute dessert shop twice. Once for coffee and once for gelato. Both were DELICIOUS! The Salted Caramel Gelato was creamy and flavorful. This is a cute authentic Italian cafe, mini-store, and wine shop (see pics). Will definitely be back.

Parking: There are about 10 street parking spots in front of the store.

Cute place. We stopped in for a quick dessert to go. The salted caramel cheesecake and macarons were delicious.

Coffee and croissants are delicious. This is a lovely place with good decor and vibes. There are plenty of pastries ,baked by themselves everyday in the morning, and Lavazza Italian coffee. 100% recommended. For sure I will come back.

This is my favorite coffee place in southwest Florida! Maritza the owner is from Southern Italy and she makes the homemade chocolate croissants, pastries and cookies everyday. They even make their own gelato. Can't say enough good things about it.

My sister and I tried this place today. We were extremely impressed. We got the strawberry gelato and the lemon gelato, they were very creamy and the flavors were phenomenal. Easily the best gelato we’ve ever had. I also tried an organic mango smoothie and it was fresh and delicious.

We got a piece of chocolate mousse cake to go, and it was so rich. We also got a mixed berry cheesecake to go and it was super creamy and good.

The environment was extremely clean, welcoming and beautifully decorated. The lady who got our food and drinks together was extremely friendly and wonderful to talk to.

This is a hard review for me. I love the exterior...it is so cute. However, the coffee is awful. I'm sorry, but if you're saying you're authentically Italian and you can't even make an espresso. The coffee is so bad, it should be fined. I've tried it four times now- each time getting a different drink and hoping it would be better. NOPE.
The chocolate croissants are delicous, unless you get the girl that burns them when she heats them up and then YUCK...it tasted so bad, I wanted a refund, but I kept my mouth shut.
They need to invest in a espresso machine and serve some good coffee. Also get rid of the pasta and cookies in boxes...weird
decorations and noone is buying them.

Ahhh I wanted to love this place SO badly.
But the gelato was NOT good. I am not sure , it was just off. Creamy but flavor was very off , both the chocolate and the vanilla. I would like to go back and try their coffee, and baked goods. But as of now...not really worth it to me. Place is cute, the building cant not be cute. Young ladies working that evening were very helpful and pleasant.
Going to try and get back there soon to try more.
