    This gelato is wonderful! We got the nutella gelato after deciding between the lemon sorbet. Wow, am I glad that I had a full serving of nutella! They just opened and they already seem to be established well. Super cute walls with ice cream cones and quick/friendly service. Welcome to Astoria!

    What a wonderful discovery. I learned about Aida's Parkside from a local FB group discussion on gelato spots in Astoria, Queens. So we just had to try this little eatery. Aida's Parkside claims to offer vegan gelato, and although I could not tell the difference, their gelato scoops -strawberry and blueberry were delicious. My partner, in addition to the gelato, purchased a piece of tiramisu which she enjoyed . Aida's is more of a takeout eatery, and there are very few spaces to sit. All in all a great success and we plan to be back.

    Banana Nutella Gelato! So delicious!

    This place is a lovey family owned gelato shop! The staff was super friendly/patient and let my boyfriend and I try many different flavors of gelato! My favorite was the banana Nutella flavor! This combination is AMAZING! 10/10 would recommend!! Perfect place to bring your family/friends for a sweet treat!

    Delicious ice cream, a bit pricey. They charge additional for credit card payment. Had the nutella coconut flavor.

    This is supposedly one of the most popular gelato spots in New York. I went once at 6 PM and once…read moreat 9 PM, and both times there were long lines. But the taste is great, the portions are huge, and it's definitely worth it! Pistachio: The pistachio flavor is very strong, even a bit salty. Those who like it will love it, while those who don't might find it strange--for example, my dad thought it tasted like salted fish. No Sugar Added Hazelnut: The best of the bunch. The nutty and creamy aroma of hazelnuts is rich, and because no sugar is added, it's not too sweet. A pure yet exquisite flavor. Strawberry Mascarpone & Ricotta: Amazing! It tastes like strawberry cheesecake! The perfect amount of cheese, combined with the refreshing strawberry jam, is simply wonderful. Cranberry: A very simple fruit sorbet. Most people might find it too sour, but for someone like me who loves sour flavors and had just eaten in Thai restaurant like Tha Phraya, it was perfect. Refreshing, natural, and helps cut through the greasiness.

    Beautiful gelato spot with tasty gelato!…read more My family and I sampled a few flavors before narrowing down our choices. I ordered the chocolate raspberry, which was delicious. My family also enjoyed the pistachio and strawberry gelato. While we weren't fans of all the flavors we tried, I'd definitely return for a cup of the ones we enjoyed the next time I'm in the neighborhood. Perfect way to cool down on a summer day!

    While exploring Harlem, we had to stop by Sugar Hill Creamery for something cold, creamy, and…read moredelicious--and I'm so glad we did! The first thing that caught my attention wasn't even the ice cream... it was the names. This isn't your average ice cream shop with "vanilla," "chocolate," and "strawberry." Their flavors have personality! Names like I Live It, How I Get It, Brown Bombshell, and Andy Griffith (their take on classic vanilla) immediately made me smile. It's such a fun, creative touch that fits the neighborhood perfectly. According to the website, their flavors are inspired by Harlem, local culture, and favorite desserts, which makes the experience feel even more unique. The ice cream absolutely lived up to the recommendation. Rich, creamy, flavorful, and worth the stop. Even with a steady flow of customers, the staff kept the line moving, stayed friendly, and made everyone feel welcome. The only reason I'm not giving it a perfect score is the size of the shop. It's tiny! Of course, that's not really their fault, but it can feel a little cramped when it's busy. Overall, Sugar Hill Creamery is a must-visit if you're in Harlem. Great ice cream, creative flavors, friendly service, and a neighborhood gem I'll definitely be back for. Sorry I didn't capture any pics. 4.5/5 stars

Upon entering, we were greeted by staff. The space is cozy and cute. Lots of calm colors adorn the wall along with beautiful paintings of African American figures. I've been to this location many years ago and I assumed some flavors would be available but I didn't know they switch up thru the seasons. This wasn't a big deal to me as I found it refreshing and an opportunity to see what else they offer. My hubby is a true lover of ice cream and treats it like an experience, so he wanted a sample of everything and the staff were kind in serving him. I decided on the vanilla bean and honey lavender. Both really great! The honey Lavendar is expecially unconventional to me but works well! The Lavendar note hits the back of your taste buds but it isn't strong or overpowering, instead the honey lends sweetness to balance everything out. The vanilla bean was standard but nice as well. Both had a nice mouth feel - they were smooth, creamy, and rich. Nothing like haagen daaz but just right. In terms of pricing, I had a double scoop which came up to $7.75 (before tax). I felt like that was fair for the amount received and type of business. Service was good and the staff were helpful. Finally, the establishment was clean all around, including the bathroom. They also had a small water dispenser for customers to take water as needed. Overall, a nice experience. I'll definitely be returning and I recommend to all at least once.

We walked the 500 feet to the location near the corner of Columbus and 84th st. Noi Due is a cute little shoppe with seating. Not only do they have Gelato, they also have sorbet. There were some flavors I've never seen and the shopkeeper was generous and patient enough to accommodate each person's request for a sample. I settled on the pistachio and the stracciatella while family went with more exotic mixes. We loved this place and I will be coming back this way.

On our way back, our group of six decided to grab some gelato. Since there were a few places to choose from, we picked the one closest to the museum, which had great reviews. It was super clean, but like a typical NYC store, it was pretty small. Luckily, we were the only ones there at first, but it did get busy. Isabela, the server, was super accommodating and encouraged us to try different flavors. I tried Halva Nagela with almond taste, but I ended up picking pistachio for its strong nutty and creamy flavor--oh, it was sooo good! My husband loved the Dulce de Leche. The other flavors we had were crème brûlée and mint chip. We all loved the gelato favors we picked. We highly recommend Noi Due Gelato. It was a super treat for a gorgeous, warm day in NYC.

The flavors are boundless and plenty with a creative twist and I like that they have seating as well. I'm a chocolate gal so naturally always go for chocolate based flavors, and went with the brown bombshell. The blondies and nuts were so good! For contrast I also got a scoop of blueberry cheesecake and it did not disappoint!!

I just popped in for a late night treat on a cold rainy day and it was everything I needed to lift my spirits up. I'm used to the Lenox Ave location so switching it up by coming to Broadway was nice. As usual, the flavors options are extremely unique. I tasted the Thai Noodle flavor because I thought it sounded so funny as a concept and I was pleasantly surprised at how they made something that's typically a dish into an enjoyable ice cream flavor. I landed on getting two scoops in a cone and it was roughly $11. The toppings options are vast but I figured it wasn't needed with the creative ice cream flavors I selected. The blueberry cheesecake was delightful, filled with chunks of blueberry and the occasional (surprising) sour hint to balance out the sweetness. The peach cobbler lived up to the name and I have nothing to say except deliciousssssss. I always appreciate Harlem based businesses that make it clear they're committed to the liberation of the community. Seeing certain community activists/pillars in murals on the wall was such a reflective moment. The server I had tonight was very sweet, patient and inviting. 10/10 experience
