This is the best gelato anywhere in Rome. They make the ice cream fresh daily Using high-quality milk, eggs, and other local ingredients. There's no artificial colorings or preservatives, unlike some other shops that will try to draw you in with bright colors. They offer a choice of white or dark chocolate that they will ladel under your gelato and over your gelato. There are a good blend of classic flavors you might expect, as well as some unique ones. Service is fast and friendly -- and prices are super fair. There's no seating inside, so you'll want to find a spot on the street to huddle over your treat. However, if you find yourself in Rome, this is the absolute best gelato you can find.
Gelato goat of Rome, and maybe all of Europe. I came to come il latte 9 years ago on my first trip to Rome and then again just 2 weeks ago. Amazing creamy luscious gelato with incredible flavors! That chocolate at the bottom of the cone is such a yummy sweet treat at the end. Pistachio and dark chocolate is my favorite flavor combo and it is elite and unreal. The pistachio tasted so real and so creamy. The dark chocolate had so much depth and chocolatey goodness. I love how clean and pristine the entire facility is. Definitely a must when in Rome!
Come il Latte was the best gelato we had on our entire trip to Italy. The flavors are incredibly rich and well-made. Our favorites were the sweet grassfed milk, stracciatella, apple cinnamon crumble, and salted caramel. They also ask if you want fresh whipped cream on top and then offer to drizzle chocolate over it with a cookie. Say yes to both. The whipped cream is amazing and takes it to another level. The shop is clean, modern, and beautiful, and the staff are friendly and helpful. It's a bit outside of the busy city center, which actually makes it a great place to relax and enjoy your gelato without the chaos. Truly the best gelato or ice cream we had in Rome. Absolutely worth the trip. Wow, WOW.
Pretty sure that we planned our trip back to Rome just so we could go to Come Il Latte! The shop workers are so friendly and the flavors are to die for. Absolutely worth a trip out of your way!!
Such beautifully crafted flavours. Not sweet at all so you don't feel guilty having 2 flavours. And they offer the classic cream on top or a drizzle of melted chocolate. It's a little bit outside of the main tourist strips (which makes it even better) and well worth the effort. The service was excellent. All items are homemade from the wafers to the tiramisu, ghiaccioco (fruit popsicles), and gentili (gelato sandwiches) and of course all the gelati. We had the following flavours: dark chocolate & raspberry (all vegan), nocciola (hazelnut), pistacchio, caffe, and zabaione (with Marsala wine)
Yummy gelato!!! My favorite was the dark chocolate flavor. Passionfruit was also great. If you're eating outside in the Rome heat, it can get a little messy, so grab napkins. But the staff is very friendly even if you speak to them to them in English. Would definitely come back here again :)
Wow, WOW.... Best gelato/Ice Cream in Roma!!! This place is not in the touristy area of downtown, but very walkable. It is sooo worth it! The first time I went there, yep I did go back again and again, I got a Cup of Peanuts and Crunchy Chocolate, sooo good. After watching others ordered I realized I messed up. You need to get it in a cone!!! They take a sugar cone and pour chocolate in it, look at the video! Then scoop they the gelato on, then they ask you if you want cream on top, then, they ask if you want chocolate drizzled on top of the cream with a cookie, oh yea I do. The second and third time I got Sour Cherry and Chocolate in a cone! One of my favorites! If you are visiting Roma, and you like gelato you must go here! What are you waiting for!!!!
I would give Come Il Latte 10 stars if I could. Easily the best gelato I had during my 12 day trip all around Italy. I spent two nights in Rome so I obviously came here twice! The gelato was rich and creamy and very high quality. You won't find bright green pistachio gelato here that's for sure. They had a large selection of flavors ranging from the classics to some more innovative flavors like ricotta. They offer you cream, a biscuit, or a chocolate dipped biscuit as a topping with every order. The chocolate dipped biscuit was decadent and I loved how the chocolate solidified as it flowed over the cold gelato. It was outstanding. The staff was also incredibly kind to us. It's a small shop so during busy times, be prepared to wait outside on the street. But I assure it's worth it!!
every other gelato place has been good, but better than america because the price. this is the first where it was superior in texture and flavor. the pistachio was perfect and the white peach was so accurately flavored
When I think back on the gelato I had in Italy, I think about Come il Latte. Perhaps recency bias, as it was the last one that I had but I believe it's just that good. The shop is cool and modern. The staff is super helpful and proud of their gelato. I had pistachio and chocolate and the flavors were wonderful. Truly a decadent gelato. They pass the test of having small batches in stainless steel covered containers. More importantly, it tastes amazing!
This is a must on your gelato tour of Rome, and is certainly among the best in Rome. The gelato is silky smooth, and super creamy. The flavors are rich and easy to savor. We went back multiple days in a row to try a multitude. Their cioccolate fondente (dark chocolate) is far and away my favorite. The others, like salted caramel, strattiacella, ricotta and pear, and simple vanilla are also exceptional. Give them a try!!
Really yummy. I had the Giandua hazelnut flavor. My husband had the Arancini peanut butter flavor and the café coffee flavor. The coffee flavor was very prominent like espresso. This was the first gelato place. We tried in Italy that offered you to put some chocolate sauce on top if you wanted it, they didn't charge for this
We had a late night craving for gelato, and it was worth the walk to find this gem. This was by far the best gelato I tasted in town! The flavors are rich, but not too heavy, and service is wonderful. They walked us through their flavors and let us try as many flavors as we wanted. Definitely recommend coming here! read more

Come Il Latte blew my mind! I'm from the US and I honestly didn't think gelato could be any better than what I had already tried in the states. This place proved me wrong and made me a believer that gelato is better in Rome! (Actually, my first experience with gelato in Rome was at a place in the Piazza Navona and it was less than stellar so just be warned that not all Roman gelaterias are created equal.) I went here almost every day while I was in Rome. Every flavor that I tried was amazing. My absolute favorite was the pistachio. It's not even green and tastes nothing like I've tried in the US. It tasted like an actual pistachio!! They also ask you if you want whipped cream. Make sure you say yes. And a complimentary waffle chip that you can have dipped in chocolate garnishes the top. Every component of a cup gelato from Come Il Latte is a flavor explosion that I have not found replicated anywhere else. read more

I had a late-night craving for gelato so walked over to this spot from my hotel. They were so friendly and warm. They walked me through their flavors and options and gave me a wonderful cone that was perfect in flavor and taste. Quality ice cream for sure and great customer service. Price was fair as well. Who knew this is actually one of the most highly regarded spots in Rome? I'll be back and I recommend it! read more

Oh my GOD!! The BEST gelato on our trip so far. The honey almond ricotta was so amazing and the rose guava was refreshing. They also drizzle white or normal chocolate on top (free of charge). Wait staff was super patient and translated the menu to english for us. A cute store with some benches outside. read more

The best gelato ever. No comparison. Used to be a weekly ritual coming here after work lunches. I had the mascarpone with gentilini (small Roman cookies) and nocciola (hazelnut). I have had every flavor variation here and they have all been great. Highly quality gelato. read more

Delicious gelato from a place that feels off the beaten path and away from the crowds. They have house made waffle cones and bowls. You can choose dark or white chocolate to line your cone, 2 or 3 scoops (depending on size), fresh cream, chocolate drizzle and another waffle biscuit on top! You could have it in a sandwich, in a waffle with butter or yogurt. Lots of options! Decadent and sweet! It was a great way to eat after walking off the day's food while heading back to our hotel lol. Not too far from Roma Termini. We had gone to another place with a similar idea, but their gelato was too soft and melted quickly. The lines were long at that other place and the woman who helped me was not nice. I'd come back here again instead! read more

Our second gelato place and just as amazing in it's own way! It's more of a denser gelato and full of flavor. I got pistachio and hazelnut again since I wanted to see if it all tasted the same. It's different! I definitely like the pistachio here! The housemade cone with dark or white chocolate made it even more decadent but I had to! I must say it has it's own creamy delicious flavor. It's a cute classy shop and the people helping us work hard, are respectful and know their stuff! Enjoy! read more
End of a tiring hot summer day, temperature has cooled down.....yelp to the rescue to find some of the best gelato within walking distance of our apartment. There are so many tourist gelato traps that you do need Yelp guidance to find the real deal. Real gelato is an art to make sure no crystals form during the process and the gelato is as smooth in texture as possible. We didn't really see Come Il Latte in it's best light. They had no waffle cones available. The dark chocolate fountain wasn't working. And the gelato was pretty melty, at least compared to the other photos on here. It didn't matter. Plain cone with white chocolate drizzled inside first to jazz it up. Then a scoop of hazelnut and a scoop of pistachio, topped with whipped cream, and waffle wafer half dipped in white chocolate. SOLD! The key was to sit on their bench outside and eat it quick before it dripped all over the ground. Truth is, I sacrificed a few drips of ice cream while I quickly took a photo. The things I do for Yelp. Yes the pistachio is as amazing as everyone says, make sure that's one of your flavors to try. The white chocolate was high quality, so I'm sure the dark is great as well. The memory of speeding through that cone of bliss, trying to protect every last drop before it ran down my hand and dripped on the floor, sitting on their bench at dusk with my family doing the same....well isn't that the reason to go to Rome? read more

As soon as we got off the plane in Rome, we had a couple of hours before we had to get on our night train to Venice. Hubs wanted gelato, of course, so we came here. I got cookies and cream and pistachio, and the hubs got hazelnut and coffee. They both came with a wafer and chocolate drizzle (white chocolate for me, dark chocolate for him...although he asked for both initially ). The gelato was super flavorful, super creamy, and the staff were really nice. I can definitely see why this place is rated 5 stars on Yelp! read more

This is the best gelato in all of Italy. My husband and I spent two weeks in Italy and went to Rome, Viterbo, Siena, Florence, Daone, Verona, and Venice, and no gelato we had comes close to Come Il Latte. The cones are house made and you get to pick between either the dark chocolate or white chocolate fountain to fill your cone. Then you can choose 1 or two flavors (I did cookies and cream and hazelnut, husband stuck with limone). All the flavors were divine. You can choose to add whipped cream on top, and they add a waffle chip to the top along with more dark or white chocolate. This place is way out of the way of all the tourists sites and we only happened upon it because it was around the corner from our hotel. No matter where you are in Rome, you MUST find a way to get to Come Il Latte. We will recommend this shop to everyone we know who will be visiting the beautiful city of Roma! read more

Came here because my wife did some research on where to get the best gelato and this place didn't disappoint. Hazelnut and pistachio were my favorite. Definitly worth checking out or even going a little bit further to check it out. read more

For 5 Euros I was able to get chocolate dripped inside of the waffle cone, two scoops of gelato with vanilla or plain whipped cream and a chocolate dipped waffle cone wafer. They have a large selection of gelato and you honestly can't go wrong with any of them! This was my second favorite gelato place in all of Italy and I had gelato 9 times! read more
I cannot stress this enough... YOU HAVE TO TRY THIS GELATARIA!! Tucked away on a little side street, but the place is as cute as it is delectable. The creamiest gelato we have ever had, and SO FUN to have the chocolate drizzled into the cone prior to filling with your favorite gelato flavor. The staff is awesome, and take such pride in what they serve you. The prices are awesome and the portions very large. There was a line out the door when we left. Make sure to trek over and have some of this yummy treat! read more
Come Il Latte literally translates to "like milk" and I can attest. They've got some of the creamiest treats in town. AND they've got a chocolate fountain to fill the bottom of your cone and drizzle on a wafer to top-off your dessert. Options include dark chocolate and white chocolate. Decadence, because you deserve it. We tried pistachio and nociolla (hazelnut). Loved both.

This gelato spot was by far my favorite one since visiting Rome and southern Italy. We came here on our first and last day in Rome and had a wonderful experience both times. The portion sizes are a bit large so I recommend sharing a cone. My husband and I tasted several flavors but I by far enjoyed the roasted pistachio-it was naturally flavored and very creamy! They make their waffle cones in-house so I highly recommend getting your gelato on a cone. They drizzle either dark chocolate or white chocolate inside the cone before adding the gelato and topping it off with their house whipping cream, cookie and drizzled with more chocolate. It's AMAZING! read more

Great hidden spot for traditional Roman gelato! I definitely suggest getting the dark chocolate inside the cone and the vanilla whipped cream on top. The price was fairly reasonable for a two scoop cone, but definitely not a cheap gelateria. They take card here, which is a plus when traveling in Rome since many places don't. The coffee flavor was not as intense as I would have hoped, but I love coffee and I am a big fan of stronger flavors. The Nutella flavor was very creamy and delicious and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The one downside is the size of the establishment since it is very small and they do not have much seating, but not many places in Rome do. read more
This is the best gelato in Rome! A local recommended this shop to us so we had to try it out. After eating gelato 2x a day the whole time we were in Italy this was hands down the best. The workers are really nice, efficient (considering there was a long line) and I highly recommend this place even if it is far out of the way -- it's totally worth it. Definitely get the handmade cone for a euro more. read more

Fantastic Gelato, fresh, and many flavors to choose from. In the refrigerator they had gelato cookie sandwiches and other treats. Very feasible prices for the quality read more
It's pretty awesome we got to experience this place. Their pistachio gelato ice cream was phenomenal. It's a small place near the Borghese Galleria museum and it's worth making a trip out here. It's a good thing that this place is no where near I live. If it did, I'd be coming here every day and that won't be good to this sugar-addict. read more

The staff, the shop, the flavors, the presentation were all amazing. The gelato was super delicious and they use natural ingredients with grass fed milk for their creme gelatos. I had guanabana and salted caramel, they were both super delicious. It was very nice to see guanabana in Rome because it is not common. They also make fresh waffle cones! The owner is very sweet and chatted with us as well as the employees. The employee that helped us took his time to explain the menu and the flavors to us and allowed us to try many flavors. They also have great prices for the quality and portion. I bought three fresh waffle cones with two scoops each for 13€. I definitely recommend this place! read more

The best ice cream place I've ever been to. I've tried 7 different flavors and none of them disappointed me. You can definitely tell that this is homemade and quality ice cream. They aren't flavorless or full of air. And most importantly, they are pretty cheap. You can get a cone covered in chocolate with 2 flavors for 4€. It is so worth it! read more
