Splendora's Gelato Reviews
A wonderful place to get a sweet treat. Plenty of dairy and gluten free options, and the owner, PK, is always very careful when I mention my food allergies. There are classic gelato flavors to choose from that sit alongside unique and really creative flavors for those who like to try new things! We also ordered custom gluten free & dairy free cupcakes for our baby shower that were absolutely delicious and worth every penny. Splendora's is a family favorite of ours.

Amazing gelato! I’ve been obsessed with these flavors even though I live hundreds of miles away. With some incredible kindness and ingenuity from the owner (and a lot of dry ice) two pints drove home with my daughter this week. Loved every bite and can’t wait for the next time I am in Charlottesville to try more.
Amazing, unique gelato, with the best chocolate ice cream/gelato I’ve ever had. It’s super velvety with a strong chocolate flavor. My favorite flavors are the dairy chocolate, caramel, and coconut, but everything else I’ve had has been amazing. Also, her cookies are incredible.

Splendora's Gelato is a charming spot known for its unique gelato flavors and nostalgic 1990's prices. The owner’s kindness and ingenuity are evident, especially through their effort to ship gelato to customers far away. The menu offers both traditional and creative flavors, with many options for different dietary needs, including delicious dairy-free and gluten-free choices. Popular treats like affogato or chocogato are highly recommended, and the hot chocolate is a favorite during colder months. The single employee handles busy times with skill and professionalism. Flavors are sourced from local produce and change with the seasons, making each visit special. The funky decor and friendly staff help it stand out in Charlottesville’s dessert scene. Customers appreciate the welcoming atmosphere, the plentiful and sometimes unique flavors, and the fact that it remains a small business worth supporting.
