We were strolling through the West Village tonight when a craving for gelato struck. We decided to give this place a try, and the guy behind the counter couldn’t have been kinder—he suggested the cherry and the lemon, and even offered samples. Both were delicious, so we grabbed a cup and sat outside. My husband, who swore he didn’t want any, ended up eating most of it. The gelato was clean and refreshing, yet creamy without being heavy. With every spoonful it just got better....
DELISH!! Walked by this place on the way home and its small authentic look drew me in. This gelato was unbelievable and the owner was so friendly! The flavors my group tried were the hazelnut, chocolate cinnamon, and vanilla with lemon zest. All of them were so true to their flavor description, rich, creamy, and the perfect end to the night!
There aren't many flavor options, and to be honest, the best one was the hazelnut. It has a light taste, a good texture, and isn't overly sweet. The place is quite small, so don't expect to find it easily!
