Small ice cream shop with home made ice creams. Have interesting flavors on rotation (like olive oil which was surprisingly good). They have gluten free options too. No sitting inside but bunch of tables/benches outside

The best gelato in Chicago!! Inventive flavors made with high quality ingredients. Excellent sorbet options for non-dairy seekers as well.

Go to spot for ice cream in the neighborhood.
A must after any dinner out.
They switch out flavors every month, keeping things interesting, and always have unique options to try.

No indoor seating, only an outdoor area.
Contrary to the name, being a food establishment, no dogs allowed indoors!

If you are looking for something different, unique. This is the place. Today I tried the Goat Cheese cashew caramel and the Malted Vanilla Pretzel.. I am happy!

Located in the quiet corner of Damen and Iowa, surrounded by residential buildings and nothing else really. There is a nice out door space under shade, very comfortable in the summer time.
The gelato is definitely one of the smoothest and most creamy type that I have tried, almost like a custard but lighter. But the gelato flavors aren't as strong as I would like, the peach and pistachio that I basically just blended in together. I like the fact that they have monthly flavors, but given the short summers on Chicago, I wonder what the winter flavors are like.

Surprising experience, the ice creams are homemade and above all don't miss the cookies!! Perhaps the best ice cream in Chicago?
