Pan au gelato… is just a scoop of ice cream in a lukewarm stale hamburger bun lmfao. Made by a dude without gloves. We have had pan au gelato and it’s fantastic. This was laughable.

But I must say the gelato itself is fantastic so that counts for something??

It’s been a while since I’ve been to D’Ambrosio. I have to say that the interior remodel isn’t my favorite — you can no longer dine in ( and we are a few years out of Covid), but man is their gelato still top notch.

I believe there is a smaller selection of flavors, but each remaining one is so good that it’s hard for me to choose a favorite. That said, you can never go wrong with pistachio.

Having recently been woefully underwhelmed at neighboring at Salt & Straw, if you are looking for truly delicious ice cream / gelato, this is the place. As good as the best gelatos I experienced throughout Italy.

Absolutely wonderful staff and amazing gelato. The absolute most fresh and delicious gelato I have had an a good while. The staff are all so friendly and provide great recommendations. Prescooped containers for take out and great prices! :)

No greeting, no hello, we were clearly bothering the girl helping us this evening$7+ tax for a half full cup of gelato, you must be joking.

Didn’t like this place during my first visit so I was careful with my order this time. They offer free samples, so definitely make good use of them.Ordered pistachio, hazelnut and fior di latte. Pistachio was good- not very strong on the flavour like most middle eastern sweets. Hazelnut was very nutty and a little strong flavour but I liked it. Fior di latte was very interestingly new to me and would recommend at least sampling for taste.

This is the most expensive tablespoon of Gelato I have ever gotten. My daughter asked for a kid size, she litteraly got a tablespoon of Gelato (I am all for reasonable size ice cream but this was a joke, 1 oz max) and we paid......4.95!!!!!! Honestly this is ridiculous, I felt scammed when I left. The place was empty and the lady seemed bored and lonely.

Gelato for ants, or cockroaches, maybe snails. Otherwise small creatures. Also if you give for SSN, you can get 50 cents off your cone.

Just went for the first time since they rebranded and it’s completely different. At least half as many flavors and it appears they moved every size up a price level (they used to be pretty dang generous with their scoops). I used to love this place, the pistachio was freaking amazing, creamy and rich nutty flavor. What I just ate was not the same at all, not as creamy, kinda tasted artificial, and I recall the green color of it being way less vibrant before. Honestly kind of devastated right now.EDIT: wow, did a little digging and it appears their current smallest sizes is just about the same price as their previous largest size. Whoever ruined this place should be ashamed, twice the price for half the quality.

They killed their golden goose - the amazing pistachio flavor is no longer amazing.Before, their pistachio flavor was amazing. Like as-good-as-Italy amazing. Having tried it just a day or two after getting back from Italy. As of December ‘23 they seem to have changed their recipe or ingredients..We came in, got a scoop and a pint of pistachio as is our normal thing to do. We tasted the pistachio scoop and it was very ‘off’ - smelled chemically and artificial. We asked to return the pint and they refused. So docking points for service.I hope I am wrong and they just got a bad batch of ingredients, but I am worried they changed their recipe.
