BEST GELATO IN SD! I have yet to visit Europe, but I'm assuming Bacio Di Latte is as authentic as it gets. Sooo many great flavors and the opportunity to sample them. I tried the pistachio chocolate crunch, pistachio, torta paradiso, bacio di latte, blueberry ricotta, and tiramisu. The flavor and texture of each are top tier. I got 2 flavors in a cone that was dipped in pistachio cream (aka liquid-ish gold). 10/10! Also tried the oatmeal lace cookie with maple cream. Definitely coming back!
I was really excited to see a new gelato shop open in this plaza and the store is really aesthetic, but unfortunately the gelato was just alright imo. I really like hazelnut, and I got 2 hazelnut flavors so the taste itself was pretty yummy, but the issue was that the gelato was wayyyy too melted even right when it was served. I wish it was a lot more frozen. Also it is really pricey for the small portion size. The small was almost $10 :/ Also, if you get a waffle cone, you can only get 1 flavor in the small versus 2 in a cup. Nice to try for the first time tho, and they let you sample the flavors!
Crowded even at 9pm . Very friendly staff even though there's a crowd and the line moves fast. It smells so good in here, lots of seating inside and outside. Ice cream is on the melty side, I really like the crunch in the ice cream being distributed evenly as they scoop
Came here cuz the storefront looked so cutsie. Wasn't expecting much but all the flavors I had were pretty good. The service was perfect and helpful. Feels like a chill vibe the time I went. I passed by one time and it was packed.

Many ice cream and gelato spots have opened up in the area over the last five years but Bacio Di Latte is a pleasant addition. The double scoop and cone were worth it as they really packed it on there. There's many flavors to choose from so there's something for everyone.
Ugh this place is so good. Get the belga gelato . It's like a party in the mouth. Cute location. Fast service.
Yum! Loved this new spot! Sampled the chocolate chip, mint chip and lastly carmel with peanut butter and chocolate. Mmmmmm, all so good! I decided on the small with mint and peanut butter/carmel/chocolate. Loved the latter!!! The taste and texture, amazing!! My mom paid but it was slightly expensive but worth it! The staff was very kind, the place was very clean and has a restroom and there was a good amount of people there coming in and out.
This cutesy gelato shop is one of a kind. It offers unique flavors that I haven't seen elsewhere. When you're inside, it has a warm, charming and inviting atmosphere. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They offer you samples to help you make your selections. I was blown away by the high-quality fresh ingredients of my Liana's Shortcake...sooo deliciously rich and creamy yet crunchy. Mmmmm!! Oooh yeah, I will definitely be back. Highly recommend it to the Yelp Community! Enjoy your gelato :-)
They had really good service. I think the staff was very patient in letting us test out a few gelato. I ended up gettting pistachio dipped waffle cone with salted caramel and pistachio gelato. My partner got hazelnut and coffee one. The gelato was good but my only complaint is that it melt so fast. It started dripping when they hand it to me. It's been awhile since I got gelato so this hit the spot. The pistachio cream that they dipped the waffle cone with is pretty delicious. Place seems pretty popular with a constant inflow of customers. I'm glad they were open late.
This is my third location of Bacio Di Latte that I visited throughout California. And I can tell you that there is quality consistency from one location to the next. Each location offers a solid experience with great staff and a high-quality product that you will be glad that you stopped in for. The gelato is so fresh, as its made daily. And the choices are plentiful and all of them sound so yummy that its hard to just pick one- thus make sure you sample to truly get appreciation of the array of flavors that they offer. The ambiance is light and bright! The shop is super clean and well organized to provide a good flow in around the shop. This location has only been opened for a month, so if you need a bit of sweetness, come out and try. There is a big parking lot in front but during the holidays the area can be quite busy.
If you're craving ice cream and especially authentic GELATO, Bacio di Latte in La Jolla is absolutely the place to experience. Their gelato is made fresh daily with the finest ingredients, and you can truly taste the quality in every bite. There are so many delectable flavors to choose from, but I decided on the Strawberry Cheesecake in a pistachio cone and oh my goodness... it was heaven. So creamy, so smooth, and perfectly sweet, and honestly one of the best gelatos I've ever had. Yes, it is on the pricier side, but the flavor and freshness make it worth every penny. The atmosphere is just as charming as the gelato. Inside feels like a sweet little Italian kitchen with adorable décor and vintage-style Italian photos lining the walls. You can enjoy your treat at the cute tables outside or relax indoors, and they serve coffee, too! It truly feels like a taste of Italy right in La Jolla. If you love gelato, don't walk... RUN. Come get it!
SWEEEETTTTT!!!! So happy!!! Was looking for dinner, found GELATO -LOLOL! Yes they're new, yes they're sparkly and clean, but best of all...they offer excellent friendly service with quality products! Not only did she let me try different flavors, she recommended her favorites, and BINGO she nailed it! Trying to decide if I should have dinner now or go back for seconds, quagmire. Giandujotto -rich chocolatey delicious Cioccolato Belga -can't go wrong Belgian Caffe & Caramellatte -My favorite coffee Tiramisu -slight crunch Chocolate Pistacchio Crunch -more chocolate than pistachio Pistacchio -Another favorite! Great taste!! Make sure you dip your cup or cone in Pistachio creme. Definitely brings out the flavor of the ice cream. They're NOT cheap, but quality is worth it. Can't wait to return for their Affogato in the day. Buon appetito!

I've never been to Flower Hill Promenade, but it was an enjoyable time. There was lots of parking available. My aunt recommended Bacio di Latte to me, saying it became one of her favorite gelato spots. I had to come try it out! First look, it's very clean and pretty. The interior was great, but they could open up the space with more seating if they took away the thick border edge around the windows. I thought it was interesting how they had +5 security cameras in the shop as well. The gelatos were all so vibrant and delicious looking. I made sure to taste a sorbet flavor, the raspberry, it had great tart flavor and not icy at all. Next time I'd try more flavors, although I wasn't sure how many was ok to taste. In the end, I ordered Pistachio Gelato on a Waffle Cone. The waffle cone was delicious and it had a slight amaretto or almond? flavor to it. It reminded me of pizzelle. The pistachio gelato was reminiscent of salted pistachios. It was fresh, smooth, and flavor was spot on. Tasted real and not artificial in any way! I really enjoyed it. However, the price was on the expensive side. They use real ingredients and make it fresh everyday which is great to hear. The cookies looked delicious in the case, the price however was not justified. The cookie is thin and the $6 price was just insane. I tried the chocolate chip one which had great dark chocolate notes. And I had the oat lace covered in chocolate with maple cream sandwiched inside. That one I was excited for but it was really disappointing. It tasted borderline burnt & the maple interior was very oily. I've had better chocolate lace cookies from Trader Joe's. Overall, I'd recommend the gelato & sorbets if you want to splurge on a dessert! They also had affogatos if that's your thing. read more
I believe this corner suite at The Shops at La Jolla Village used to be the home of a cellular phone carrier. An upscale gelato shop, Bacio Di Latte, is now the current tenant despite the fact that a popular ice cream shop was just around the bend in the same part of the plaza. The chain has become a rapidly expanding business with two locations in SD County and several more throughout the Southern California region. For a frozen dessert place, they did have quite a bit of seating with about a dozen small round tables scattered across the room. Nearly two dozen gelato flavors were on display next to the service counter. You could request taste samples as I did during my visit. Some cookies and other baked goods were also displayed in a case next to the register. Three gelato serving sizes were available along with three different kinds of vessels (cup, waffle cone, sugar cone). You could request split flavors within each serving size which was what I did. The Blueberry & Ricotta was a new flavor so I chose that and the Strawberry Cheesecake for my small (piccolo) cup. Both fruits were quite sweet as expected while the gelato base was smooth and creamy. The prices were a bit higher and the portions were smaller than what you can get from local ice cream shops. I guess at the end of the day, you're paying a premium for a premium product. read more

What an indulgence!!! This place is a problem. So glad I have to drive 25mins to get to it or it would be a deliciously bad habit! Sarah took my partner and I on a flavor tour and we loved absolute everything. As the manager, she was extremely knowledgeable about the flavors and processes used to make the gelato, something my partner and I appreciated. It was hard to choose what we wanted in our cone. Somehow she convinced us to get 3 flavors each in a bowl....I did not need three scoops of ice cream but couldn't argue with the manager - it was definitely worth it!!! Everything here, especially the sorbet flavors, are made with love and simple, high quality ingredients you can actually taste. I wish I was a spokesperson so you could be like "she's getting paid to say this".....no. This spot is legit. And the product sells itself. Enough talking. Go get you some gelato!! read more

A little pricey but THE BEST GELATO hands down. Staff help with little taste testers to help you decide. The affogato is very nicely presented: you get to pour your own espresso. Not a lot of seating options inside but worth the visit and wait. Flavors are all delicious. An equal mix of families and couples on dates, the evening we went. If you like gelato and ice cream you will love it here. read more
Wow! Grand opening today! Our favorite gelato place, now in La Jolla! Right in the plaza where they have Nordy Rack, CAVA, Whole Foods, Snooze The staff here are very friendly. They have a variety of flavors and one Vegan Belgian Chocolate flavor that is my go-to!! read more

From the moment we walked in, the experience was fantastic. The lady at the counter was incredibly kind and patient with my party of four while we debated our choices and sampled flavors. She never rushed us and made the whole process genuinely enjoyable. Honestly, I don't think you can go wrong with any flavor here. Every single one I tried was rich, creamy, and perfectly balanced, which somehow made choosing even harder. I ended up getting the holiday biscotti and hazelnut (the full hazelnut, not the hazelnut-chocolate) with pistachio cream. It was insanely good. The hazelnut was deep and nutty, the biscotti added a warm, cozy flavor, and the pistachio cream tied everything together with a smooth, indulgent finish. Every bite was luxurious and satisfying without being too heavy. Someone else in my group ordered the matcha affogato and couldn't stop raving about it--they highly recommend it as well! Amazing gelato, excellent service, and a must-visit spot if you're craving something truly special read more

Bacio Di Latte is a new gelato place that just opened up in the La Jolla area and all I can say is wow. Upon walking in, I was amazed at the variety of flavors that they had on display and the staff were very kind with letting me try all of the flavors that I wanted! The cream-based flavors were very decadent and the sorbets truly tasted like the fruit itself. The store has both indoor and outdoor seating with plenty of tables for those looking for a nice area to study in as well. I will definitely be back to try more flavors that Bacio Di Latte has to offer and give their coffee a try as well. Come here if you're looking for a yummy dessert! read more

YO THIS IS THE BEST GELATO!!! I got chocolate pistachio, and then the hazelnut -- Actually in heaven, the atmosphere is so cute and I've been to Italy a couple of times and this might be better... the Nutella cup was DELICIOUS OMG!!! Service so sweet too :) definitely want to come back read more
Clean, modern, quality. Beautiful relatively new gelateria/coffee shop at Villa La Jolla shopping center. Exudes quality. I went there after having some tacos at nearby rubios and ordered a capuccino. It was delicious but only the price is a bit too much $6.50. very comfortable seatings and super cute tables. I will try the gelatos next time. Today I got a sample of pistachio one and was very rich and great taste. read more

Got a Piccolo Belgian Chocolate and Pistachio. Chocolate is rich and pistachio is nutty, not too sweet! The sweetest thing was the service. A kind young woman with a white headband served me around 7:00pm Wednesday, April 29th. I didn't get a name but it's always nice when your server works with a big smile. Speedy service and yummy gelato! read more

New gelato spot in La Jolla village. It's right next to Nordstrom Rack. It's in a very busy shopping plaza. They give samples if you want to try some flavors. The gelato is pricey but it's very smooth and creamy. I always get pistachio. It's always a classic gelato flavor. I do like that in the gelato there are chunks of real pistachio nuts. The waffle cones look really good too. read more

The best gelato. The Tiramisu, Chocolate Pistacchio Crunch, and Strawberry Cheesecake were so good. Love how they use organic ingredients and have vegan options. The service was great, and the gelato cafe's atmosphere was clean and welcoming. read more
Great gelato spot! I tried a few samples which were all good and decided on the fragola (strawberry sorbet) and crema & biscotti (cookies and cream). Both flavors were delicious. The strawberry sorbet was fresh, not overly sweet or tart, and you can really taste the strawberry. The cookies and cream was nicely sweet and I enjoyed the crunchy cookie pieces inside. Lots of gelato options and friendly service. Clean, cute and bright inside with a good amount of tables. I would be back! read more
Very pretty and brand-new gelateria in the La Jolla Village market place near UTC. The display of gelatos is gorgeous with all of the bright colors on full display. Prices are a bit high, but the rent is expensive, so not out of line. The do offer a couple of dairy-free options, which is great, although they were a bit too sweet for my palate. But who doesn't love gelato! read more
First impression, "Bacio Di latte" the name itself sounds cozy, expensively delicious and beautiful". It's a sweet treat! Lots of really good flavors to choose from. What caught my eye was the strawberry cheesecake, the regular pistachio, the chocolate pistachio crunch, and the tiramisu and of course, I fell in love with the tiramisu! It was yummy! Although, they have a brownie cookie I was hoping for them to have crepes, that would make this a perfect place to hang out. The affogato sounds really good too but personally I am looking for regular coffee. They have a rewards program, and it is so easy to join. I don't usually like joining rewards programs at most establishments because they have a lot of steps/questions and it's annoying, but with them, all you got to do is provide your phone number and done. Super quick and easy, so that's nice! Their staff were friendly, nice and attentive. They have plenty of different Gelato flavors to choose from for a nice indulgence after a long day of doing errands. It's sweet! Thank you! read more

Love visiting this place! Go there at least once a month. The flavors are so diverse and gelato is so rich! Have tried their dipped cones and they are so good! The pistachio gelato and their Bacio di latte original flavor is my favorite to pair with any of their rotating flavors! Staff is so welcoming and the space is so accommodating to enjoying your gelato there without feeling overcrowded! read more
