When I eat gelato, I always feel like I'm eating a special style of comfort food…read more When I saw the listing for GIO-Gelati at Jingletown Eats, I had to try it. I ordered chocolate because it's my favorite flavor. It was delivered in a tray-like container, which makes it look like more than a pint. Gelato isn't frozen like ice cream, it's semi-solid form makes it easy to eat. The chocolate flavor is distinct and close to perfection. The smooth texture and clean taste, creates a great frozen dessert. It's like someone took ice cream, and made it better. I'll have to try other flavors soon.

Disclaimer: Used Grubhub for both orders…read more Was excited to hear a place offer Sachertorte gelato, based on the Austrian dessert cake with the same name. Unfortunately, I've tried ordering the Sachertorte twice now; the first time they called back 15 mins to let me know that the choice was out, and if an alternative choice was okay--- and that was absolutely fine as we got the vegan raspberry gelato. The vegan raspberry gelato was incredibly delicious. A deep red/purple color, it has raspberry seeds and is not overly sugary, and holds a sweet tartness. As there is no dairy used, the texture is as expected; not creamy, but similar to sorbet. 10/10. However, the second time I tried ordering Sachertorte, they sent me Cremino al Caffe instead of Sachertorte. A little sad because I'm not a fan of coffee and that I've been looking forward to trying Sachertorte for a while now. I might just need to go to the Oakland Food hall and wait in line to attempt one last time! Friends enjoyed the Cremino al Caffe. As I used Grubhub to order, and the gelato themselves were wonderful, I'll be giving them 4/5 for the unfortunate mishaps. Would try again.

SO GOOD. Loved all the flavors I tried (minus the Cookie Milk & Cookies--for some reason I wasn't a…read morefan). Every ice cream, including the vegan options, was so creamy and soft. Highly recommend the Pandan Hojicha (not too sweet--very rich in tea flavor), Ube Flan (sweet and ube-y with milky flan swirls), and Banana w/ Dulce de Leche (fresh and sweet banana flavor with caramel). They do charge $1 for any kind of cone FYI Will defo be returning!! Especially to try Breakfast Brownie & Cantaloupe (both were sold out when we went). Super close (barely a block away) from Fox Theater with a solid amount of metered street parking around

The moment you walk into the shop, you'll notice the current flavor offerings displayed on colorful ice cream-shaped signs across the wall to the right. I could spend an eternity studying each flavor, but there's limited space to queue indoors so really gotta decide on a flavor and serving style fast in order to keep the line moving. Among the flavors were some classics, fruity/floral mixes, and dessert-inspired ones too, a whole range so there's something for everyone. I got the Breakfast Brownie and it was unforgettable! It tasted creamy and delightful without being overwhelming, while the cornflakes mixed inside added a satisfying crunch to each bite. I came back a second time before a show at Crybaby, a smaller venue across the street. Grabbing a scoop here to-go has naturally become part of my pre-concert routine at this point and I plan to come back again next time to explore more flavors. If you're ever heading to a show nearby, I'd definitely recommend stopping by beforehand for a lil energy boost and treat.

It was my first time visiting Tucker's and it was packed the brim. Good. My expectations are up there as I look at the line. A few flavors caught my eye, mainly the marble raspberry.

There was a pleasant hubbub inside and a bit of a line but enough people behind the counter that it wasn't that long a wait. I got a cone that was terribly decadent and found a table out of the way to enjoy it. I'd decided on a chocolate dipped waffle cone, because why not? They were freshly dipped -- the chocolate hadn't even dried yet! That made it an extra treat because I was able to lick the chocolate off. Because I was being indulgent, I got chocolate peanut butter as my scoop andi must say it was quite generous as a single scoop! The ice cream was delicious; maybe not top five for me, but I'd have it again! It was a lovely treat for a summer Saturday!

Unfortunately it's usually super late when we finish eating and Tom is always closing up last minute, but he always makes time to serve us ice cream before he fully closes. Definitely always tipped for his kindness! This is an alameda staple besides Tucker's on park street and has been around for the last couple decades. Their Ube flavored ice cream is still one of the best flavors out there. Recently discovered my next favorite which is the champagne sherbert and it tastes just like a pink starburst!

I won a Bad Walters gift card in a white elephant exchange. I was initially fighting for artisanal…read moreolive oil but decided to let my uncles have it. They own an apartment in Paris and I didn't want to offend them with my usual guerrilla tactics. I'm known to fight dirty and conspire with others during this game and everybody hates me because of it, and I didn't want to be banned from their apartment, as Paris in the fall is lovely. Thus my journey with Walter began. One thing about me, is I respect a place that knows flavors. I don't want basic vanilla, give me some weird and strange and flavorful that will tantalize my palette and ignite my senses. Give me salty and sweet. Give me TANG. Give me these things and DONT give me gas. Bad Walters cracked the code. All flavor, real dairy, no lactose, no gas. Each week they have a different batch of flavors, so there's always something new to explore. There's like 6 flavors to choose from at once and they let me try them all before I selected my choice hehe. I tried to sample 6 flavors at Cold Stone and they took me out back and shot me, but here, nobody was mean to me. Mr. Potatohead is the flavor I landed on--brown sugar custard with peanut butter swirl and chocolate covered potato chips. The chunks of chocolate covered potato chips were lodged in the ice cream and I felt like an archaeologist excavating ancient rocks as my spoon lifted the potato chocolate chunks out of the creamy custard into my mouth. I bought a pint. The Mick Jagger was another joy, with its salty caramel and Oreo chunks. They're lucky Peaches Christ was sold out because I might've lost my mind for a peach cobbler ice cream! They wouldve had to drag me out by the back of my neck like a rabid dog! Maybe next time. All in all, tasty ice cream. Would recommend.

We have been extremely loyal customers ever since. They rotate flavors, but through many months and many visits I don't think I've ever tried a bad one. The flavors are also very fun, not your typical cookies and cream, cookie dough, etc. Although they do have a plain version sometimes. The employees are very helpful and kind letting you sample the flavors. Our absolute favorite is tinky winky- ube flavored ice cream with honey comb pieces. They also sell points to the side- take advantage. You'll want more when you're done! The ambiance and vibe of bad Walter's is perfect. Bright colors, disco ball dripping, fun sayings on the cups, the whole 9 yards. The take home pint we got has Reddit "hate" comments and their responses, it's hilarious. This ice cream store is way more of a vibe than any marketing agent could dream of. Who would've thought I wish I could be a rep for an ice cream company? Oh and they also do a stamp card when you buy pints to get a free scoop. You bring in the containers so they can recycle them. It's a win win for both sides, loves it. Best ice cream ever!!!

If you haven't tried them yet, go before it's too late! I've been lucky enough to try four of their flavors, and each one showcases their signature silky texture and deep flavor. All are not too sweet! My personal favorite is the Kyoto Matcha - the matcha is high-quality, with a vivid green color and rich flavor that balances beautifully with the creamy cheesecake base. The Original is a classic for a reason with deeply caramelized top and creamy interior. I also tried the Iribancha, a roasted green tea flavor. It's intense, smoky, and unique..maybe not one I could finish in one sitting, but definitely memorable and recommend for those who want that earthy/smoky taste. The truffle was also a standout, adding just enough umami to round out the sweetness. Preorders drop via Instagram (@basukucheesecakes) and sell out lightning-fast. Otherwise, plan to line up for slices! Wishing Basuku all the best on their next chapter. Fingers crossed for a return to the Bay someday! Until then, don't miss your chance to try what might be the best cheesecake you've ever had.
