    Food is ok, prices are very high. Seats outside are above the sewer vents. Service is rather ignorant, not acceptable for this price

  • Bradley Hutson
    05/06/2026

    The line was long, the ordering was confusing (100% touch screen ordering and the flavors weren't clearly displayed when it came your turn to actually order), the staff wasn't very friendly, and worst of all...the gelato was not good. My family and I have eaten gelato for 14 days straight in cities all around Italy and this was by far the worst. Don't waste your time or money, find a smaller gelateria a little further out!

  • Sergiu Voicu
    04/06/2026

    Divine Gelato, trash service. After a day of visiting the city center we decided to get a gelato and rest a bit after traveling with an infant. We chose a table and I went inside to buy sometimg. Once I went outside the waiter basically invited my wife and kid out as the tables were "reserved". I stood in line to buy their product then he invited us out. Why he did not tell us from the start that the tables are for his tips and not for the customers? Avoid if you can.

  • Adam V

    The ice cream was decent but the staff was really bad and a surprise was when the staff told us you can't get a coffee with ice cream outside by the table.

  • Ahmad Mariam
    03/06/2026

    It was delicious. However, I’m not sure about the chocolate drizzled on the outside of the cup. While it looks nice, it seems more decorative than functional and results in some unnecessary waste and mess.

    To go order, ice-cream is decent. But the staff does not allow us to sit at the table, she said it for order only. Italian culture very weird and do not appreciated their customer.

    Abbiamo scovato questo locale, dopo aver cercato tanto una gelateria… Il personale gentilissimo e attento si è fatto apprezzare per i consigli e la discreta presenza. I miei accompagnatori si sono gustati un affogato al caramello super, mentre per la mia dieta, io ho ricevuto un grande bicchiere di caffè decaffeinato shakerato, con dolcificante. Ed eccoci qui a scrivere la recensione, su consiglio di Amir che ci ha seguito nella nostra ordinazione. Grazie, Amir 😉Alessandra, Davide, Alessio

    İyi yorum yapanları anlamıyorum. Mekana gelen ekibin %90’ı turist. İtalyanlar gitmiyor zaten. Turistlerin de çoğu Türk. Duomo’da caddede yürüyüp güzel görünüyor girelim gibi bir hataya düşmeyin. Fiyatları pahalı. Bir affogato ve bir tiramisu söyledim. Affogatoyu kahve telvesini de içine karıştırdıklarından bitiremedim zaten, nimet olmasa ağır konuşacağım. Tiramisu ise İtalya’da yediğim en kötü tiramisuydu. Ankara’da herhangi bir Starbucks’tan alın, bundan kat kat iyi yapar. Çoluğunuzu çocuğunuzu götürmek gibi bir hata yapmayın. Çalışanlar somurtkan, ürünler iyi değil. Tavsiye etmeyin, ettirmeyin. Rezil bir mekan.

    El café y el helado estaban muy buenos, aunque el café algo frío.. y la crepe lastimosamente de las peores.. sentí que estaba hecha de hace días, dura y fría.. solo que la nutella le va a dar el buen sabor. Puedes sentarte a consumir únicamente cosas de ese local, y aunque compres cosas ahí no pueden verte con un agua o producto de otro.

    Einer meiner schlechtesten Service-Erfahrungen. Leider war das Personal sehr unfreundlich und wirkte wenig kompetent. Auf Fragen wurde kaum eingegangen, und man hatte das Gefühl, als Kunde nicht willkommen zu sein. Der gesamte Besuch war enttäuschend und entsprach keineswegs meinen Erwartungen. Ich hoffe, dass der Service in Zukunft verbessert wird, denn so kann ich dieses Lokal leider nicht weiterempfehlen.

    Gelateria che sfrutta la sua fama e la posizione per vendere gelato mediocre a prezzi molto alti. Mi ricordavo fosse buono anni fa, non ci tornerò di certo. Il messaggio qui sotto, ricevuto il giorno dopo la recensione, è puro marketing. Ho scritto al numero e risponde un chatbot che mi chiede cosa voglio...

    Esperienza a dir poco imbarazzante. Appena entrati abbiamo chiesto a una dipendente se fosse possibile accomodarci ai tavoli. La sua risposta è stata chiara: ordinare al totem, ritirare il cibo e le bevande e poi sederci. Abbiamo seguito esattamente le istruzioni ricevute, ritirando personalmente tutto e portandolo al tavolo senza alcun tipo di assistenza. Dopo pochi minuti si presenta il direttore dicendoci che non potevamo restare seduti perché non avevamo pagato il servizio al tavolo. Assurdo. Gli ho spiegato che eravamo stati indirizzati in quel modo da una sua dipendente, che ha persino confermato la versione dei fatti, ma nonostante questo ci è stato detto che per restare avremmo dovuto pagare un servizio che non avevamo mai ricevuto. Quindi ricapitolando: ordini da solo, ritiri da solo, trasporti tutto al tavolo da solo e poi ti viene chiesto di pagare un servizio inesistente. Ancora più grave è l’atteggiamento del direttore, che invece di riconoscere un evidente errore organizzativo ha preferito scaricare il problema sul cliente. Gestione approssimativa, comunicazione interna inesistente e totale mancanza di attenzione verso chi paga. Non è il costo del servizio il problema, ma la pretesa di far pagare qualcosa che non è stato fornito e il modo in cui siamo stati trattati. Esperienza pessima, sicuramente non tornerò e non la consiglio a nessuno.

    Bir puanı da mekan güzel gözüktüğü için veriyorum. Ama onun dılında paranızı harcamaya değecek bir yer değil. Çalışanları çok saygısızdı. Yani bizimle ilgilen(mey)en hanimefendi öyleydi. Yarım saat sipariş vermeye çalıştık ama asla yüzümüze bakmadılar. Göz göze gelsek de tekrar yönüni değiştirdi. Biz de vazgeçip kalktık. Eğer dondurma tatlı alıp oturmadan yiyecekseniz ve başka bir yer bulamadıysanız şans verebilirsiniz ama onun dışında ✖️ Not: haziran (9 ay sonra) ayında geldiğimde tekrar denemek istedim. Tatlıları ve dondurması güzel fakat çalışanları hala kaba ve ilgisiz.
