Overall pretty nice and fast. I see crepes being served but we just got some gelato, espresso and water. It was just a nice shady spot to relax before the science center opened. read more

The scoops of gelato we got here were delicious!!! We tried the strawberry cheesecake and the…read morepistachio and both were amazing and had lots of rich flavor. A single scoop in a cone is 3 euros, and 2 euros with no cone. It was a perfect place to stop at after lunch before heading up to the Pena Palace and Moorish Castle. It's right across from the Sintra Palace a sidewalk away from the main road through the historic centre so very convenient and easy to find! Lots of others were eating gelato from here but it wasn't busy or crowded, and the service was very typical and not problematic.

It was just what I needed. I selected a scoop of the Banana Chocolate gelato and thought it was delicious. The banana gelato didn't taste artificial and there was a good amount of rich, creamy chocolate chunks. Prices are reasonable and there is a large selection of gelato flavors. The cashier was attentive, although a little pushy and impatient. We had walked in a few minutes before close and she made it very clear that we would need to leave right after ordering. She was also pretty impatient with us as we placed our order. All in all, I was happy with the gelato and my only regret was not ordering a larger size!

I was honestly a little disappointed at first, when our tour guide took us here for lunch and I saw…read morethat it was "just" a sandwich shop. It seemed like a bit of a hole in the wall, which I always think makes the best food, so I gave it (and our tour guide) the benefit of the doubt, and I realized quickly that it had steady traffic and a constant line, which is always a good sign. I got the smoked ham and fresh cheese on a fresh baguette - the smoked ham was like a prosciutto and the fresh cheese like a ricotta, with lettuce, tomato, olive oil, and dried oregano. Very fresh, simple, bread was nice and crusty, and the olive oil and oregano were a nice touch. Seemed more of an Italian-inspired lunch to me, but I'm not complaining! Good value, too, at about only 4 euros per sandwich. No outdoor seating and limited seating inside, but there's a washroom and the tap is outside of it, so you can actually even fill up your water bottle here as well. On the left side, when you first walk in, there's also a little section for gelato - not sure if this is part of Puro Sabor or another side shop within, but either way, you can get a sandwich and dessert in the same spot.

I've been here twice now- each time for sweets and sandwiches. Always perfect. Try to pay in exact change- it gets really crowded here and it slows them down if you give them a big bill. Plus it's really cheap, so it's easy to have exactly change. You will be happy with anything here.

Nobody was in front of me so I walked right in the bathroom. The minute I came out the staff started yelling at me in Portuguese.

I explained them there is nothing in the bathroom worth stealing. They would not serve me and kicked me out of the store, and would give me the ice cream my family payed for.

But for them, their ice cream is really good. Dare I say, its one of the best ice creams I've ever had!! They do have a lot of ice cream flavors which is what ai would expect from an ice cream shop. I like that even for a small you cam get 2 different flavors to try. I tried their Santini tart with fruit and jam as well as their honeydew melon. They were both so good. Tasted very natural to me. Each had unique but very pleasing flavors. I loved how smooth the taste was. Not overly sweet. It was so refreshing especially after a long day of walking and being in the sun. My wife got their coconut and green apple ice cream. And those 2 flavors were really good also!! Just so amazing!! I can see why theres multiple shops around town. And yes, their claim of having the best ice cream in the world is pretty spot on!!

Despite the crowd, the service moved surprisingly fast and the whole experience felt well organized. You pay based on cone size rather than by the scoop, which means you can load up on flavors without the guilt of counting portions. I went with pistachio, mango and blueberry cheesecake, and the combination worked beautifully. What really sets Amorino apart is the presentation, the staff shape the gelato into a stunning flower design that almost feels too pretty to eat. I also grabbed a Nutella crepe which was every bit as good as it sounds. Beyond the gelato there are plenty of options to explore including their famous macarons, so it is worth taking a moment to browse before you order. If you are walking through the Baixa area, this is an easy and very rewarding detour.

I frequent the one in the ROD so it was not a shock when I dragged my friends in. It's the exact playbook as the one in Houston. You get in line, place your order and then choose your flavours. I went with my good ole faithful waffle with two scoops (hazelnut chocolate and salted caramel) of gelato and topped it off with hazelnut drizzle. The total was about $6.40 which is way cheaper than it is in the states. It was just as delicious and very much worth it. It's easy to find in you're in the Baixa area of Lisboa. Just follow the path.

AMAZING quality!!! I mean... ONE OF THE BEST I've ever had. It's located in a district that from where we were required a lot of uphill "climbing" (many, many steps!). I would do it again. It's that good. I'm vegan, and being used to choose from 2-3 options, all of the sudden to find such variety is almost surreal. I'm so glad I followed the recommendation of so many vegan TikTokers! The service is friendly and the ambiance is simple, with one small table outside and a few inside. We picked up our ice creams and kept walking. Downhill this time LOL
