They let you sample flavors before committing. I got the single cup so I could get two flavors. I wound up getting the dan tat and the pandan. The dan tat is what they're known for. Genius, everyone likes dan tat and everyone likes ice cream! Everyone working there was friendly and efficient. It was Christmas when I went, so there was a tree. Not much seating, but you can take your ice cream on a walk around the block.

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.

I was able to try multiple flavors, and decided on two for a single split scoop. - Banana w/ dulce de leche - the banana flavor is very strong with a splash of sweetness.

The service was great and I really appreciated the enthusiasm of the young gentleman helping me. There was a sign saying the temperature of the freezers was quite high, which is why their ice creams are so creamy, but I guess creamy means they'll melt as soon as your handed your treat. Overall, it was quite messy and felt like the ice cream was minutes away from becoming a milkshake. For $7, I'll pass and go buy a pint.

Combining Italian ice with frozen custard was a lovely indulgence, and they even provided calorie ranges to input into the My Fitness Pal app to remind me how much I've actually consumed. A range of 250 to 450 calories is really not bad for the $5.99 Small Gelati I ordered, especially when I requested the Root Beer ice be combined the Vanilla Frozen Custard (Photo 3).

Mocha almond fudge: I liked the texture and that it's not as sweet due to the coffee and chocolate combo, it's a good flavor if you like some crunch. Matcha: It doesn't have as strong of a savory and slightly bitter taste as some places' matcha ice cream, but it was still pretty good. They give you pretty large scoops, so price is pretty on par with ice cream nowadays.

I can't believe how they come out with new flavors every Wednesday- that's an enormous amount of creativity!

Bummed that they are no longer operating in the Bay Area, but glad I was able to try Basuku earlier…read morethis year before they moved away. And yes, the cheesecake is great - probably the best rendition of basque cheesecake I've had. I love that it's not too cream-cheese-y in flavor, and the texture is smooth and creamy.

Basuku has the most decadent basque cheesecakes in the Bay Area. I've been a fan for years, and…read morethey recently posted that they'll be leaving the bay to pursue other locations (Japan/Taiwan). 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.
