    8/10 Taste was so-so good. Was surprised and impressed. Waffle cone to gelato ratio is not great, waffle cone bottom did not get filled so was left with just waffle cone halfway down. Atmosphere was cozy, good for a lowkey night if going during the evening. Two dates happening when I went! Cute

    What a great place if you are craving for some ice cream. It's such a cute spot to have dessert, they have different flavors and other options like affogato, hot chocolate, coffee. The place is small but they have seats inside and outside. The service was great. I tried the Chocolate flavor with ricotta honey pistachio and was SO GOOD! I'll definitely come back to try more!

    I think dolce neve has decent gelato, albiet its not my favorite in Austin. I'm also a major waffle cone girly, and dolce neve's cone is straight up not good- it tastes stale and flavorless/not buttery. On my most recent visit, I got the buttermilk strawberry and chocolate hazelnut flavors. I think the flavors are good, but the texture isn't as creamy and full bodied as other high quality gelato places. I also sampled the pistachio, which is normally my go-to here. I think dolce neve used to be better when I was still in college, but this spot is still a staple and nostalgic gelato place to go to when in Austin. The service is pretty good- they tend to each person and let you try as many samples as you want. Interior is small and parking lot is small, but isn't this the case everywhere in Austin LOL

    I visited Italy a few months ago and have been on the hunt for gelato that comes close to what I had there--and this place is probably the closest I've found so far. The pistachio flavor was incredibly creamy, decadent, and nutty, with just the right touch of sweetness. The matcha was on the milder side and lacked a strong matcha flavor, but overall, this is probably my favorite spot in town for pistachio gelato. I'm definitely coming back to try more flavors. The shop has both indoor and outdoor seating, with a cute and cozy interior. It's a great casual spot to hang out with friends after dinner. The service was excellent--staff were friendly and eager to help.

    This is the cutest little shop! It feels like a tiny little home. I love the vibe - cute & quaint. The gelato is solid. Decent portion sizes too! They have different flavors at different times. For example, as we were leaving, they put out a pineapple sorbet. I would definitely go back to continue trying new flavors! The shop also serves coffee. It's a cool place to do work or study. They have wifi, but I would come with a charged device as I don't recall there being too many outlets.

    Pint of 3 flavors of Chocolate 100%, Stracciatella, and Coffee!

    My husband and I came to Austin for work and decided to spend the day here and was craving something sweet. We stopped at the right place, we got the pint that came with 3 flavors. We didn't even leave the parking lot before we dug into it. Definitely recommend it, we sampled a few others and another flavor I enjoyed was Jasmine Tea! Nice taken care of establishment. We will be back to try some more.

    We walked over for dessert after having dinner nearby! The lady working was so sweet with conversation and suggestions. They offer a lot of unique flavors. It is on the more expensive size given portion but it is tasty and fresh! They have a few tables to sit at or you can take to go. I recommend checking it out!

    One of my favorite flavors in general is pistachio and this is the place to get REAL pistachio gelato, not the artificially flavored, green kind (: Paired the pistachio with vanilla and 70% chocolate. Would recommend trying this spot! Added bonus: they also have pistachio butter for sale!!

    I love gelato and had to finally come try this place and it did not disappoint. We sampled the almond custard, orange peel chocolate and peaches and cream and all were delicious. Ended up going with the chocolate orange peel which had proper orange peel pieces in it YUM and almond custard which was nice and smooth and lightly flavored almond. $6 for a small which is kinda steep but I'll definitely be back to try some of their other flavors.

    My family and I visited Dolce Neve. We drove around to the side and back of the building for parking. When we walked in we were kindly greeted by two young women working behind the counter. They both answered our questions regarding the flavors and explained a little bit about what will be coming soon. When we asked about the flavors they told us that we could try some on taster spoons. I chose to get a small cup which you can get two flavors in. I decided to try the Crema Dolce Neve which is a custard with lemon zest in it. I also tried the vanilla. Both the custard and gelato were good. The custard with lemon zest was flavorful and not overly citrusy. The custard and the gelato were smooth and creamy. The inside was well lit and there was seating available both inside and outside. It was a cool place to try a cold treat with good service and good gelato.

    Stopped by Dolce Neve on a warm January afternoon after lunch. The parking lot was completely full, there is only room for about 4 cars, and there was a bit of a line inside as well. There was only one person working in the front, so it took about 15 minutes. I noticed there was variety of flavors, some pretty unique too. Overall, I did really enjoy the gelato/sorbet here, the hojicha tasted like sweetened green tea, but not too sweet and not bitter either. The grapefruit sorbet was really refreshing with the perfect amount of grapefruit bitterness that it tasted authentic and still enjoyable.

    Great little spot to grab an after dinner dessert. Parking is in the back. The lady that helped us was really sweet. We tried lots of flavors before landing on cappuccinos + stracciatella/vanilla from Madagascar. The gelato was creamy and delicious.

    Clockwise from the top: organic mint gelato, goat cheese and pecan gelato, and yellow watermelon sorbet.
    Wendy W.

    Amaaazing freshly sourced gelatos and sorbets with daily rotating flavors. I spotted this place while taking obligatory touristy photos with the "Greetings from Austin" mural nearby, and stopped by on a whim thanks to the ridonkulous heat. They had freakin' yellow watermelon sorbet (!!!) so I already knew I was in for a treat, but as I kept sampling, it got harder and harder to choose. But I got the medium size and was able to pick three different flavors, so I also went with organic mint and goat cheese and pecan. Each flavor was so tasty and struck the perfect balance between sweetness and highlighting the fresh ingredients. The yellow watermelon sorbet was so refreshing and light, and the goat cheese and pecan gelato was right up my wheelhouse: creamy and a bit savory/tangy. I wish NYC had a location! Our frozen-desserts competition is stiff, but Dolce Neve honestly became one of my favorite dessert spots from this visit alone.

    Never thought I would be a fan of Americanized ice cream (always way too sweet), but Lick proved me…read morewrong. Touché. The three of us each grabbed three flavors (F, E, D--haha, funny, right?) and rated each one with sugary zeal. Roasted Beets & Fresh Mint (F, E) - delicious, subtly minty, with a very creamy, mild beet flavor. I never had such a refreshing ice cream that wasn't sorbet. The mint really made a difference. I'm a huge fan of places that curate exotic flavors (a vegetable, really?) into their menu, which only increased my opinion of this place. Hill Country Honey & Vanilla Bean (E) - one of the smoothest vanilla bean ice creams I've had. It reminds me of a traditional ice milk soft serve. It wasn't the most impressive vanilla ice cream I've ever had, but it was still very good in its own right. Dark Chocolate, Olive Oil & Sea Salt (E, D) - such a great balance to the sweetness of the rest of the ice cream options. I always love little chunks of salt in sweets to cut through the sugary intensity, so this one was an instant favorite. GOAT Cheese, Thyme, and Honey (E, D) - a complete 100% hit. Probably my top, alongside the beets. My BFF said it tasted too much like a meal rather than a dessert and couldn't give it a high rating, but as a charcuterie fan, I know there are plenty of "dessert" cheeses. I mean... cream cheese, for example? But is that really a cheese...? Uhhh. Very Strawberry (F) - a clean strawberry flavor. A bit artificial, but still so great. It far outweighed the Sweet Cream w. Strawberry flavor we tasted later. Cookies & Cream (F) - I never liked cookies & cream before, but this changed my mind. It hits so hard when you get a full spoonful. Probably the only cookies & cream I would eat. My BFF's #1. Chocolate Chocolate (F) - love chocolate? Get this. That's all you need to know. Coffee & Cream (D) - oooh, reminds me of the keto coffee ice cream I had once. Would get again. Coffee notes are always great in ice cream. Was this a STRONG standout? No. But did it do its job? Yes. Sweet Cream w. Strawberry (D) - too creamy for me, not enough strawberry. My top flavors by far are: 1) Roasted Beets & Fresh Mint, 2) GOAT Cheese, Thyme, and Honey, and 3) Dark Chocolate, Olive Oil & Sea Salt. All three were unique flavors that I would absolutely get again. We sat on the little barstools watching the line get progressively longer as the night went on. It was really interesting to see how many people came in for a sweet treat at 11 PM. The atmosphere was pleasant, parking was pretty easy, and while it never got too crowded, the place was surprisingly popular.

Quite busy at 8:15PM on a Sunday! About ten people ahead of us and only two people working so it took about 10-15mins with people asking for samples and such. While we were there, it was always a packed line so it definitely gets really busy from 8-9PM! We got three larges for a total of twelve flavors, a little bit of overlap: Mine: Dark Chocolate Olive Oil and Sea Salt - Really liked this, the bitter saltiness offset the creaminess really well. Coffee with Cream - A very light but roasty coffee, like a light coffee. I liked this!; Goat Cheese, Thyme and Honey - The herbal flavor is more subtle than I expected! Not too sweet, liked this one Sweet Cream & Strawberry - this one didn't stand out much to me Others: Roasted Beets and Fresh Mint - I really liked this one! The beets and mint hit on the back of your tongue, yum Chocolate Chocolate - Very intense chocolate, not too crazy about it though Cookies & Cream - Surprisingly good! I liked this one Very Strawberry - way more strawberry than the sweet cream. I'd recommend this over the sweet cream and strawberry Hill Country Honey & Vanilla Bean - Pretty light, a classic. Thought it was okay. If I had a tier list it would be: 1) Coffee with Cream 2) Goat Cheese 3) Dark Chocolate Olive Oil 4) Roasted Beets and Mint 5) Cookies & Cream 6) Very Strawberry 7) Vanilla Bean 8) Chocolate Chocolate 9) Sweet Cream & Strawberry Overall, a few hits, a few misses, but it was a fun tasting experience. We paid via inKind with no issues, which made it a pretty solid value.

I would NOT eat Amy's under any circumstances. To be clear, I've only been once. Ambience leaves much to be desired, but the ice cream which is the main event does not even taste good. It has about 3 to 4 times as much sugar as it actually needs. In fact, I was physically ill from eating it. Not only does the ice cream itself taste too sugary in the flavors are too cloyingly sweet, but they then want to mix in additional candies and sugar items which blows my mind. I humored them and tried an ice cream with mix ins and was greatly underwhelmed. Everyone who likes Amy's raves about the Mexican vanilla but honestly, that is also way too sweet and tastes like drinking vanilla extract. I can only surmise that there are a lot of folks with unsophisticated palates in Austin, otherwise there would not be so many positive reviews and this place would not be in business. On top of it the whole mixing thing so gimmicky and annoying it just makes the lion go way longer. Anyone who thinks this is great has not ventured out and tried anything else because they're literally 10 other ice cream places that I can think of that are actually great. Looking forward to the day that this place churns to become something else that's actually tasty because it's prime real estate.

There's a good variety of flavors and things they serve from italian ice to ice cream and shakes. We opted for a strawberry italian ice with condensed milk on top. From the first bite we were in heaven. The flavor is very thorough which is not always the case for Italian ices where it can sometimes be a bit muted. Every single bite of this was packed with flavor. They also carve out a bit of the middle to put the condensed milk which makes every bite much more equal than if it was just placed at the top. This was by far one of, if not the best, Italian ices we've ever had. We would very much recommend it to anyone in the Downtown area looking to cool off.
