one of the best pistachio gelatos in milan!! the gelato has actual bits of pistachio that provide a lot of texture. with every purchase of ice cream, you get a waffle chip and get to pick between the chocolate sauces to dip it in. they also have a sit-down option where you can order a Cappe Speciali, like an elevated sundae. The issue was that our order came out looking nothing like the image with its various toppings, yet after informing the waiter, they took it back and added the additional toppings. read more

Awesome place to get some espresso fix. Its the thing. Morning commuters flock to places like here to get some coffee and bite to eat. I got the matcha tiramisu which was advertised at the outside corner. It looked awesome. Actual one inside the paper cup, nah. Need to come back and try other things. Cannoncini looks very good and at awesome price. read more

Date of visit: May 25, 2025 After a wonderful meal near La Galleria, we needed something sweet and found this lively spot to score some gelato and a piece of cake for my non-dairy husband. Lively isn't halfway describing this place, madhouse is more like it! You start at the kiosk and you don't pick your flavors of gelato, just the type. Then you wait in line for them to call your number and people are jumping in front of you as though that will get their number called first (spoiler alert: it doesn't). But it is quite hectic and if you ordered cake too, that's at a separate counter and takes a crazy amount of time for a piece of semi-dry cake. The gelato itself is very good, it's just small for the price and the wait. read more

Nothing screams Italy quite like gelato. And when it comes to the gelato game in Milan, Cioccolati Italiani is top tier. It's giving fancy, creamy, and ultra delicious! Stopped by for an after lunch treat and Cioccolati Italiani did not disappoint. It's located right behind the famous Duomo cathedral, so it's a touristy spot that seems to always be busy. But, don't let that steer you away from a visit. This is one spot that that's far from overhyped! When you enter, you'll place your order at the kiosk. There posted menus with pictures and descriptions inside of you aren't sure of what you want. They have a ton of pre-made concoctions to choose from, but you can also keep it plain Jane or customize your gelato to your liking. Since I was there, I had to order something fancy because... well, why NOT?! Ended up going with their Bell Italia which consists of pistachio, custard cream, and hazelnut gelatos topped with a dark chocolate mini cone. When I tell you that this concoction was amazing! This was something out of a gelato dream. Seriously. First of all... those flavors, though! Could not get enough of the pistachio and hazelnut. It was so creamy and delightful. And that dark chocolate topping was like the icing on the cake! I actually spilled some of it on my shoes, but it was so damn good that I wasn't even phased by it. Word to the wise; it can get messy! When in Milan, Cioccolati Italiani is the place to go for some mouthwatering gelato. read more

This location is right in the heart of Milan right by all their shopping. I've been here in the past and I recently came back with the intent of getting gelato. But they also offer drinks, cakes, pastries, and lots of gift options as well. You order at one of their kiosk and they will print out a receipt with a ticket for you. I came on a busy day and waited about 10 minutes until my number was called. I got a small two scoop of gelato in their smaller cone. I got their 75% chocolate and hazelnut gelato. Both were good but the hazelnut gelato was the star. I also have tried their pistachio gelato before as well which is also pretty good. Oh and I love that you have 3 different chocolate options to coat the inside of your cone. I always get pistachio in mine and it is so good! This spot is busy busy busy. They have outdoor seating but its for customers who are doing full service dining I believe. Still worth checking out. read more

A bit of a touristy location, but you have to try a Cioccolato Caldo when in Italy. Not just a hot cocoa, this is a thick, high percentage cocoa beverage that will absolutely change your idea of hot chocolate. Located on a corner they have two outdoor seating areas. Have a seat and a waiter will be with you soon. Scan the QR code at the table for the menu. The first nine pages are in Italian. Pages ten through eighteen are in English. They offer coffee drinks, coffee and chocolate concoctions, cold chocolate beverages, gelato of many flavors, cakes, regular coffee, crepe and waffles. Their version of Cioccolato caldo comes with pistachio, hazel nut, strawberry or whipped cream on top. Whether you get your cioccolato caldo here or elsewhere, you have got to try it while in Italy. This is a convenient location for a sweet treat. read more

Dark chocolate gelato, Nutella and strawberry crepe, and iced coffee. Everything was tasty as it should be.

This spot is located a couple blocks away from the northern edge of the Galleria Vittorio Emmanuelle II building. After seeing the high prices and reading mediocre reviews of the gelaterias in the gallery itself, the reviews for this spot seemed more promising. The shop interior isn't too big, though large enough for 20-30 people to squeeze tightly into the space while ordering and waiting for their order numbers to be called. Simply put, the place was PACKED. Placing your order is easy enough--there's number on your receipt that they call when it's your turn (and an electronic sign showing the current number on the wall above the gelato counter). Maneuvering around other people as they were being called up to the front to select their ice cream flavors, then trying to make their way back toward the exit was a chaotic dance. I'm not sure why they don't just employ a regular line where you place your next order when the prior one is fulfilled. There were plenty of staff scooping, I counted 4-5 though the number of customers was clearly much higher. The gelato itself was pretty good, not the best in Italy but in the top 30% probably. There are at least several other places around town that are better in terms of unique/seasonal flavors and creaminess in texture though the latter is a bit of an arbitrary distinction. They had all the traditional Italian flavors like chocolate, hazelnut, pistachio, straciatella, gianduja, coffee, milk cream and a handful of fruit sorbets covered. Price was decent €4.50 for a small size which included 3 scoops/flavors and was much larger than the size small at Amarino. They also carried a variety of specialty cones, espresso drinks, affogatos, crepes, waffles and pastries. A sign in Italian listed out potential allergens. After picking up my scoops of pistachio, dark chocolate gelato and raspberry sorbetti I made my way outside to a seating area for a little less than two dozen people outside at small tables. Was lucky enough to grab a seat for 10 min while enjoying my chilled dessert. read more

Solid gelato place multiple different unique things to try. Felt like the last time I've been here it has gone a little downhill. But still a must visit place. Gelato flavors are not too many, lines are long, the chocolate fountain it's only used for a very little portion on your overall products. But the staple must visit and try while you're around the Duamo area read more

Very mid gelato: way too liquid--started melting out of control almost immediately--and the flavors were not super strong. The brownie crepe was pretty good but way too sweet. However, it does have a bathroom, a valuable commodity next to the Duomo. There's also outdoor seating, but there's not much of a view since it is on a side street, and a seating fee. read more

Yum yum gelato in a very strategic place! Visited this gelatieria on the day we were doing our own food tour around the duomo. We got ourselve a cup of stracciatella and pistachio gelato and a cannoli. The gelato was delicious, rich. The cannoli had some pistachio pieces on one end and candied orange on the other, of which im not a big fan of. I'm more of just sweetened ricotta. We went in late november, so it wasn't the warmest, and people were sitting outside. They've got decent amount of tables out. read more

My friend and I came here for cappuccinos with chocolate drizzles. It seemed like we couldn't get a table, but the waitress ushered us to the side and squeezed us in. At first, we were a bit disappointed when our drinks came because we thought there was only chocolate on the side, but as we drank more, we found there was a ton of melted chocolate at the bottom - delicious! The location can't get any better, as the Duomo is just down the street. Great option for some coffee and/or sweets while in the area. The menu was quite extensive and they definitely had some insane desserts to offer. Considering it's in such a touristy spot, the prices for the drinks seemed fairly reasonable, but some of the fancier desserts were a bit more expensive. Overall, a win in my book! read more

Cioccolati Italiani - Coffee and ice cream - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Milan, Michigan

Funny thing is that I don't even like ice cream... But in Italy, the ice cream tastes so different that I cant and won't say no to it. So the gelato is quite lovely whichever flavors you get. But I would recommend getting one of the chocolate combinations. They have other desserts like crepes and coffee drinks but they are famous for their gelato. This place is right near the duomo and for me right near the hotel we are staying at while visiting the city of Milan. They are extremely busy in the day time but the line moves fast. You pay first for what you want and then you get into another line to pick up the dessert you got. They close most nights at 11PM but on Saturdays they are open until 12 at night. They have seating outside. One of the best places to get gelato in Milan. ~ read more

We had a few goals for our overnight layover in Milan and gelato was one of them. Let's face it. Any gelateria in Italy is miles above and beyond what we have in the US. Cioccolati was such a treat and worth the wait if you happen to be in Milan. Stand in line, order what you want at the register, get a number, wait until they call you. You can order one of their specialty varieties or make your own. Either way, you get some freakin delicious chocolate poured inside your cone before the gelato comes on top. The gelato was smooth, silky, amazingly flavorful. It didn't stop there. The cone was absolutely wonderful with the melted chocolate! This is definitely a touristy destination but don't let that stop you! read more

Insanely bustling location. Located right by the Galleria in Milano, this spot has a lot of traffic. Went there after eating some pizza and was craving something sweet. You order from a Kiosk, and then show the receipt to the workers behind the counter. I ordered a the tiramisu and the hazelnut flavors, was top notch. The nutella on top of the hazelnut was a great touch. I also tried the pistachio, and it really does taste like your'e eating pistachios. Great Gelateria if you can bare the long wait time. read more

Can I just say the pistachio with its bits of nuts and the dark chocolate had me wanting more even after I finished my own?! Even the small size gets two flavors-- as you can see from my pic, it's plenty. Hint: need to go directly to the cashier to purchase your choice of dessert, and you are given a number. Once you are called, approach the counter and you may ask for samples before deciding. read more

The gelato is lacking. The wild cones and extreme concoctions are there for tourists and Instagrammers. If you want delicious gelato, this is not the place. The staff is unusually rude, even for Italians who are not particularly warm toward tourists. read more

As they might say back where I grew up, "This ain't no Drumstick!" It was our first Gelato stop when visiting the touristy Duomo in Milan. Our kids were jet lagged and hungry (or maybe Hangry at that point) and we thought it would be a nice late afternoon treat. It was packed in here with tons of locals shopping and also tourists. The line snakes out the door but is always moving. You place your order, get a number, and then wait until they call it. Then you watch them make your cone in front of you. I got to sample both a chocolate temptation and happy cone from my kids and both were excellent! Nice blend of chocolate, white chocolate, nutella, hazelnut. It melts fast so get on it once you pick it up. PROS: great flavor for chocolate lovers, conveniently located near the Duomo. They speak English here and take credit cards. CONS: long line (but steady). It's about 5 Euro per cone. BOTTOM LINE: why don't we have Nutella cones off the street back home? It was a hit, I'll be getting my own cone next time. read more

I typically hate going to places with so much tourist hype, but after seeing so many pics online, we thought we might as well give this location a try. Overall, I'd have to admit they have some pretty good gelato. However, due to its close proximity to Duomo di Milano, expect MUCH longer lines (full of locals & tourists), as well as PREMIUM prices. Nothing to go crazy over, but the quality is definitely there. They also offer some fancy €7.5+ cones that apparently tourists can't get enough of. read more

Cioccolati Italiani - Dark Chocolate + Pistachio [3.6€] - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Milan, Michigan

Definitely my GO TO ICE CREAM SPOT! I Love the ice cream here. And it's a cool experience watching them prepare it

The Cioccolati Italiani was our go to dessert option on our week long trip to Milan and it's regional areas. This place was located steps from our hotel entrance right in the smack middle of central Milan. When we took the free Milan walking tour this was one of the stops we took a break at and I immediately indulged in a chocolate hazelnut cone. The ice cream is awesome and tasty and they always have a line all day. The only thing is that they don't have any indoor seating and the outdoor seating is very limited hence you got to get your ice cream and walk and enjoy eating it. We also tried the hot brownie with chocolate and vanilla scoops that was absolutely our of this world. 5 star all the way. If you are in central Milan near the duomo do not leave without trying their ice cream cones. read more

Chocolate cafe with chocolate infused coffee and gelato (among other things). Right in the heart of the touristy duomo area but reasonable prices and amble outdoor shaded seating. Both of our cappuccinos (dark chocolate and chocolate lovers) were as advertised but we left wanting more chocolate infused in the drink. Most of the chocolate in the chocolate lovers cappuccino was what you see on the rim. Would still return to try more drinks and their gelato! read more

Cioccolati Italiani - Cappuccinos with chocolate - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Milan, Michigan

Been here twice now and this gelato is definitely different (in the best possible way). The gelato is extremely fluffy, you can choose to customize your gelato or there are preset options. The line is intimidating but it goes by /relatively/ fast. You order in the line for the cashier and then wait for your number to get your order made. I got nutella on mine and it was GREAT. Be careful with the cone because there is a lot of chocolate at the bottom and both my friend and I spilled the chocolate - surprised that it was there. I think this gelato, while not the best, is REALLY good. It's definitely unique and worth a try. One thing that did bother me was that one person didn't wear gloves (I guess he was the head gelato chef). He bumped someone's ice cream on someone's shoulder but proceeded to still give it to the customer. Otherwise this place is amazing!!!!!! read more

THE BEST GELATO I HAVE EVER HAD!!!! I tried the "Obsession" which included pistachio, chocolate, and I forgot the last flavor but it was probably vanilla. It was this pretty cracker to top it off. Anyways, the texture was so smooth, creamy, delicious, magical. This is definitely a place you want to visit if you want to be mind blown. HOWEVER, LET ME WARN YOU.. the line is EXTREMELY long. I probably waited 30-40 minutes for these 3 scoops of gelato only to inhale it in 5 minutes. Either way, the wait was well worth it and I would still recommend everyone to go here. I probably had 10 servings of gelato in the 2-3 days I was in italy (I truly am not exaggerating), and this was by far my favorite spot. read more

Cioccolati Italiani is where sweet, sugary dreams come true! Located just five minutes outside of the Piazza del Duomo, this chocolate emporium offers some of the world's most decadent gelato and chocolates. Ignore the massive lines that pour out of the door. *Just make sure that you pay for your cone first at the register. Once you have paid you'll receive a number to stand in line for your gelato. The line moves quickly and the gelato is well worth the wait! During my visit I ordered three-scoop waffle cone with crema, pistaccio and white chocolate gelato. Since the gelato is made fresh daily many of my favorite flavors were already sold out by the late afternoon, but I was still very happy with my selection. The gelato contains no artificial colors and flavors and is made with organic milk and eggs. Life really does not get any better than this!!! Cioccolati Italiani goes one step further to perfect the already perfect cone of gelato. They pour your choice of white, dark, or milk chocolate into the base of the waffle cone. I'm not sure who the Italian mastermind that came up with this heavenly idea, but angels must sing his praise every time a cone of gelato is created at Cioccolati Italiani! TIP: Do not order your gelato in a cup or you will completely miss out on the freshly made waffle cones with your choice of decadent chocolate in the bottom of the cone! read more
