They also have tasty Italian pastries and coffee. The sleeper hit here are the incredible sandwiches. The sandwiches are worth going there alone. They bake the bread fresh and all the other ingredients are super fresh and taste fantastic. This place is destined to be a Mecca for anyone that loves authentic Italian cuisine. All the staff are super friendly including the main proprietor named Mateo. He'll make you feel like part of the family as soon as you walk through the door. Don't miss out on this brilliant gem before the secret gets out that this is the best place around. Make sure to tell them Steve sent you!

If you mention the word Gelato, my first image is Norman Love's Artisan Gelato right off Daniel…read moreParkway next to his Chocolate Shop. Just like his Chocolate, Norman Love serves exquisite Gelati (Gelato in plural). The Gelati were smooth, and superb texture is much better than ice cream! What flavor of Gelato? Well, how about Chocolate, Lemon sorbetto, Egg Nog, Vanilla Fudge Brownie, Mango, Pistachio, Cookies and Cream, Mocha Almond Fudge, Smores, Caramel Pecan Turtle, Peanut Butter crunch, Rocky Road, Cherry Vanilla, Mint chip, and a few that I can't remember! With so many selections to choose from, you can easily look confused at the counter. Well you can spoon off a sample from your friends. Or better yet, come back next time or buy a pint to take home. It is that good! They even serve Crepes and Sundaes! It is simply amazing. A wonderful place to stop by after your visit to the Fenway Park South!

Really tasty gelato and awesome service…read more A little pricy for an every day treat but an overall good value given the preparation and portions.

I can't believe I found this place through instagram haha, It's was definitely worth the trip,…read moreespecially if you are local to the area. We normally don't come around Cape Coral due to the drive however it's definitely an area worth exploring. We had just finished an escape room in the area and this was the perfect afternoon summer snack to have. As you walk in, you are immediately greeted and undecided because of all the delicious pictures of the options they provide for their spaghetti gelato, which they can also make milkshakes. They have so many different options and you are able to build you own as well. Normally I can't ever finish a small scoop of ice cream but this gelato ice cream it's unique and delicious. I personally prefer that it doesn't feel like too much sugar yet it holds the flavor enough for you to enjoy. Our cashier was very friendly and we decided on the Ferrero rocher, Cheesecake, and peanut butter jelly. I don't think you can go wrong with any of them however we went with what our favorite sweet treats are and we were not disappointed. I would definitely have them again or explore others. It was very easy to find, they have a few tables inside to enjoy your gelato, some seating outside as well. Restroom very clean and spacious. Decent amount of parking available in the plaza. They accept all major CC's and the price is reasonable. We will definitely come back again!

It absolutely amazes me how delicious these chocolates are and I wish I lived closer to this place,…read morebut if I did, I think I would go broke from how often I would be showing up to this place! Honestly, probably twice a week, at a minimum! It is easy to find once you are in the plaza and there is a nice amount of parking so you don't need to hunt for any! Along with nice parking, the staff at this location is wonderful and the interior is absolutely stunning! I haven't tried anything other than there chocolates, but they have many different drinks and little foods you can nibble on while you are sitting in there! My latest trip here, I decided to order a box of three chocolates and they consisted of my choices of a cherry pie, mimosa and a shot in the dark truffle. The flavors are out of this world and usually when I try mimosa flavored things, they tend to be overpowering but this one is nailing it every time I am here, knocking me back with how amazing the flavor is! The other two flavors were heavenly as well and I can't stress how amazing they were as well! The chocolates are a little pricey because it is a boutique and small batch style chocolate place, however the price is justifiable because of how amazing the flavors of these chocolates are!

I absolutely love chocolate so I'm glad I came across this place!…read more I ended up ordering a mini box of 3 chocolates. The box had Mimosa, Cherry Pie and shot in the dark Coffee Truffle. These chocolates were stunning to look at as well as their other desserts. I just had to try the mimosa and despite not being a huge fan of white chocolate (usually hit or miss for me) their white chocolate was definitely a hit! I loved how creamy the chocolate was and while eating it you get a tang of an orange flavor. The Cherry Pie was interesting as it was extremely sweet but in a good way! The dark chocolate is delightfully rich. Lastly, was the Shot in The Dark Coffee Truffle. This was possibly my favorite. If you're a fan of coffee ice cream it tastes like that in a rich chocolate form! I know next time I'm buying more of those. The actual store is spacious and extremely clean and wonderfully organized. The chocolates here are delicious at great prices. I will be coming back for a bigger box next time.

Delicious! Must stop for a treat in Downtown Fort Myers…read more We got a sampler pack of 6 different macarons, and each were amazing. I especially loved pistachio, lemon cream, and praline!

* Update- for some reason I can not respond or react to Donna's reply…read more Donna, thank you for the response and input. I was not aware requests could be made. Each time I have mentioned being disappointed no Bday cake was available, no one has mentioned this as an option, and actually tonight, I was told by one of the young ladies that in the 6months she has worked here, she has not seen Birthday cake as an option . PS- there are always lots of options/flavors (sadly nothing that compares to bday cake IMO) and the service is always great, so even though I choose not to get anything on these occasions when birthday cake is not available, my family still proceeds to get their favorites. So disappointing! We are from Indianapolis and our daughter lives in Bonita- we make it a point to come here everytime we visit (which is often)- twice now in April (the first week and this week) we have came here and no birthday cake ice cream! Parrots nest is NOT the same! Birthday cake has literally has been my absolute favorite since coming here in 2020!
