THE BEST GELATO IN TURIN. My friend ranted and raved about this place and their signature 'Cremino'…read moreflavour and when we finally made it there after weeks of walking by and drooling ... I fell in love. They have a wide variety of flavours to choose from and you could sit there tasting all day in order to choose, OR, you could just start with cremino and call it a day. They are all made right there and both of the locations that I know of are small and therefore do everything with extreme care. The portion sizes are amazing and every bite is beautiful. If you make it to one gelateria in Turin let it be this one!

Amazing gelato!!…read more I've been traveling for months, looking for high quality vegan gelato and finally found it. Sara was extremely kind, helping translate and letting me try multiple delicious flavors. I got Pistachio, dark chocolate, hazelnut and almond; they all rocked my world. Definitely worth a visit!

A lot of locals hang out here for a late night snack…read more This is a fun spot, and the gelato is great!

From the owner: A due passi dal fiume Po e ai piedi di Superga, nell'aprile del 1998 apre a Torino la Gelateria…read moreCiacci. Il nome Ciacci è sinonimo di qualità, gusto, tradizioni e simpatia. Nel laboratorio annesso al locale, vicino al banco vendita, i Ciacci producono il loro gelato artigianale. A breve distanza dal centro storico, sulla strada che porta verso i verdi parchi della collina, una sosta golosa è consigliata per gli amanti dei più tradizionali gusti alla frutta e alla crema o dei tantissimi gusti novità e diverse interpretazioni della crema nascono così Ciaccissimo, Pazzo, Quello, etc... Assolutamente da provare le torte vellutate di Giorgia Ciacci che con arte sopraffina inventa ricette nuove tutti i mesi dal 2000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Un'abitudine gustosa. Un pasto completo, nutriente, naturale e sano che aiuta a migliorare l'umore.

Of all the cafes in the square, this one was by far the busiest, though that might have had to do with the fact that it was the sunniest on a November afternoon.

They have frozen lemonade here! After a seven mile walk around Torino, I was hot, sticky and in…read moreneed of some energy. Having spent some of my years in RI, the memory of a Dell's Lemonade on a hot day is enough to bring on the cravings. This frozen lemonade was a nice combination of tart and sweet. Not quite the Dell's experience, but it certainly brightened up my afternoon and helped cool me down! They have a selection of ice creams (Gelato!) you can order from the side street window, or step inside and order a coffee, other beverage and a snack. There were a few locals sitting at the out door tables. The owner was very jovial and thoughtful. I would definitely come back on my next visit to Torino.

This gelato shop came highly recommended by Turin foodies. We came here around 2 pm for an…read moreafternoon sweet treat and we were surrounded by locals, including a man with his young daughter, two ladies who had been out shopping, and an elderly grandma. That's the point I'm trying to make: everyone loves ice cream! The shop is tiny and there are only a few high-top chairs for sitting. The employees didn't speak English but if you know basic Italian you'll be fine. Everyone, even the patrons, were extremely friendly and welcoming. We got a small cup to share. This place reminds me a lot of Grom, only much smaller. All of the gelato is homemade and it is delicious. You can't really go wrong with gelato in Italy, and Alberto Marchetti is a great stop if you're craving the cold sweet stuff!

Part of the Piedmont slow food movement (and a few of the flavors are identified "slow food" on the…read moremenu). And while I can say the gelato here is solid, the richness of the flavor still feels lacking from the true slow food amazing gelato experienced out in the countryside of Tuscany, out near the Ferragamo villas. Nor does it beat some off the beaten track spot in Roma. And while the extra dark chocolate is fantastic - it's comparable to the boutique gelato shops I find in Milan. However, unlike all the other gelato spots everywhere else I've visited in Italy - the service is quite terrible. Rushed (ironic for a place marketing slow food), presumptuous (yes, I look petite but I like to eat so don't automatically assume I want the small and stop looking annoyed that you have to put the small cup back when I order medium so I can add an additional flavor, and please add my flavor without grunting and sighing - I can handle the calories thank you), and irresponsibly dismissive (when I ask politely in Italian whether the extra dark chocolate is GF and you say ALL flavors are gluten free, no, I see Tiramisu and other gluten-ful flavors and know I'm taking a risk) Summary of the flavors tried: Fior di latte - sweet enough it tasted a bit bitter Pistachio - flavorful Extra dark chocolate - Very rich and flavorful, and the right balance of sweetness Overall, I found the place to be a bit of a hype and for what I can find else where with much friendlier staff and service, and more importantly, safety in getting the right information for actual dietary restrictions that impact my health, I will not be back.
