“first time visiting here. Gelato was very creamy and light. ingredients seemed fresh. I got pistachio since so many positive reviews but I found a strange aftertaste. I would not order it again. also got almond biscoff which was very good with bits of candied pecans i believe! hubby tried stratchiatelli which was just ok , a little bland, did not taste a vanilla flavor IMO. I would go back to try other flavors. Gelato cookie sandwiches did look very good.“

The fries were the crispiest crinkle cut fries I’ve ever had. (I normally don’t like crinkle cut fries as they are never crisp enough for me. ) I give them a five star rating ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
