We stopped by for a break and were blown away by the four different types of tiramisu they offer. The pistachio and chocolate strawberry flavors were especially fantastic--such a treat after our time at Tre Mountain. The service was incredibly fast, and they even provided us with water, which was much appreciated. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot to relax and indulge in something sweet. Overall, a must-visit if you're in the area! read more

Delicious gelato. A nice treat to cool you down in this Italian summer heat. I had more gelato than one can count on my two week trip but Don Nino outshined them all. Nearly 3 months later and I'm still thinking about this treat. read more

Don Nino - Gelato Near Me - Rome, RM

There are no prices anywhere and when they know u are a tourist they charge u double or more. They change the price everyday and they are extremely rude. So has we didn't pay, we just walked out when we realized they were trying to scam us! read more

I can understand why people were dazzled by how beautiful the decorations are, you feel like you are in a boudoir or a royal palace but I felt I was all immaterial to what's it's all about. Unless you have a sweet tooth, this place is not for you, the ice cream is so creamy n so sweet just like in America so what's the point of having an Italian delicacy? Gelato in every gelateria I have been to in my 12x to Italy is very subtle it's in between a sorbet n an ice cream. They literally have mashed mango so fruity n delicious, limone is so refreshing especially if you have it in Sorrento where the gigantic lemons come from. All fresh ingredients n usually 6 euros for 3 scoops. I told the guy I wanted sorbet but he gave me ice cream, I was exhausted n didn't see this place didn't have sorbetto, the mango was ok, the lemon was too sweet then he put a tiny amount of whip cream n charged me 50c extra. The cannoli was so sweet n the filling stuck to my teeth, it was really gross it was like CRAZY GLUE not a joke. The bill came out to 14 euros about 17$, cut throat pricing. 15 months ago I stayed in the hotel in front of the pantheon n there was another gelateria right 3 doors from Don Nino, it was a sit down ice cream parlor, this place is a tourist trap, I like chandeliers but I prefer no chandelier but good gelato. read more

One of the best gelato places in Rome. Beautiful interiors and lots of goodies to chose from. I always get the chocolate mint gelato and this one right here was the best one. Just the right amount of sweetness. Yummmm. They have So many cookies and specialty drinks that makes it hard to chose from. We also got cappuccino and apricot cookies to enjoy while taking a break from walking. If you are in the area stop by, you won't be disappointed.... read more

My last gelato of my vacation was one of the best! I ordered a melon and coconut cone, and it was amazing. The cantaloupe flavor was perfect. Everyone in my party remarked how good the flavors were. This shop is very close to the Parthenon and definitely worth a stop. read more

TOTAL RIP OFF!!! DO NOT GO HERE!!! They basically don't have prices. They ask you cup or cone. They make you pick 2 flavors like a sundae. This cost 15 euros! They didn't ask is if we wanted single or double scoops. Staff was very rude. We paid 60 euros for 4 sundaes. read more

Solid gelato, Don Nino didn't stand out much from any of the other dime-a-dozen gelato spots in Rome. However, this is a really good option and would recommend it if you're close by. They also have pastries and macaroons too! read more

Passed by here a few times before stopping to get gelato. It was good, and I liked that it came with a wafer on top. I got the hazelnut and lemon flavors, I wouldn't recommend mixing these two as they do not go well together, but they tasted good separately! read more

We loved the service and they had the best flavors. Great choice!! Appropriate pricing. Choose Don Nino!

Don Nino, by the Spanish Steps, scammed me. I went here and ordered the "Continental Breakfast" off the menu for 16 Euro, which included pancakes, toast, yogurt, and coffee. I was only given toast and coffee, and when I asked about the pancakes and yogurt, the waitress said the menu was wrong and it doesn't include that. And then I showed her the menu, saying it clearly DOES include pancakes and yogurt, and she said she'd make it for me. 1/2 an hour later the pancakes did not come, and I left after sitting there for almost two hours. I paid 16 euro for a small cappuccino and toast. Don't go here. Scammers and horrible, slow service. read more

When in Rome... Popped into this super cute dessert spot after visiting the Trevi Fountain and it was just what I was looking for. Visually appealing with lots of colorful dessert and gelato options. Reasonably priced and super refreshing on a hot summer day. Definitely looking forward to a return visit. read more

Cute little pastry shop located just outside of Pantheon, I didn't realize it was a chain until I walked throughout Rome but either way, I enjoyed my Caffè latte and mini lemon cake from Don Nino today. The service was ok (they forgot to bring me my lemon cake after I ordered and had to ask for it again a few mins later lol) but my Caffè latte was yummy and there was free WiFi and bathrooms were clean so no complaints there! read more

We stumbled upon this place while visiting the Trevi fountain and pantheon areas. I can literally not stop thinking about the pistachio croissant!! It tastes like fresh pistachio peanut butter, I wish I could have ordered a tub of it and brought it home with me! The cappuccino is okay. The orange juice is pulp heaven. The inside is adorable. Service is good. read more

I came here for the gelato, my wife for the sweets. Neither of us was disappointed. She had a delicious apricot pastry, and I had a combo peach and lemon gelato. The gelato was excellent: delicious, fruity peach and a tart lemon. One concern: I asked for my gelato in a cup, and did not specify a size. Turns out I was given the $5 size - a little sneaky. Make sure you precisely identify the size you want. Minus one star for that. read more

Read the reviews so we decided to try this place on the way to the Pantheon. The cannoli was was way too sweet and the gelato melted way too fast. Not as creamy as some other places. read more

This place is adorable! We got the lemon & yogurt gelato and both were phenomenal. The lemon gelato is extra tangy and is perfect for those who love strong flavors. The yogurt gelato was my favorite! It tastes nothing like the American frozen yogurt - those are forever ruined for me now thanks to this spot. read more

We have tried several gelato shops in the area and this is simply the best. Both in quality and service. They always make it look so beautiful, the staff are playful and so kind. They gave my toddler several free waffle cookies and spoke to us in both English and Italian which I loved! Many other places will only speak to you in English even if you attempt to speak Italian but these guys are so patient and helpful and we have yet to have a time when they didn't make us laugh of crack a smile. The best place for dessert or gelato and coffee in Rome! read more

Amazing cannoli's!!!! My family and I were specifically looking for a cannoli and I stumbled across this place on Yelp. It was very easy to find and we were looking to explore the Pantheon as well! We ordered two cannolis and profiteroles. The cannolis were filled right before our eyes and dipped in chocolates chips! We also ordered a cup of tea and bought two juices. We LOVED the cannolis. They were amazingly fresh and so so tasty!! My mom loved the profiteroles as well. The juices were also very good. We didn't have any gelato here but it looked amazing! Please check this place out for a yummy treat! read more

Every single thing in this place looks absolutely incredible. I walked in from the street after the chocolate croissant caught my eye, but instead was recommended to try the pistachio croissant. Absolutely delicious!! It was overflowing with pistachio cream, and I would say it was the best pastry I had in Italy. We went early in the morning at a time when gelato didn't seem appropriate, but from these pictures I will have to go back and try gelato and a cannoli. read more

Obsessed obsessed obsessed. Wish this was back home nearby, but I'll take every day I spend here in Rome. This place has pleasant prices for exquisite desserts and gelato. The service is fantastic, so is the location. Don't confuse this place with any haphazardly gelato place near the Pantheon. This place looks like you would find it in Provence, France. It has lids on the gelato and gorgeous desserts on display. LOVE LOVE read more

Don Nino - Wow! Fantastic! - Gelato Near Me - Rome, RM

Cute place for dessert by the Pantheon. Don Nino cake was delicious, as well as the tiramisu and the profiteroles. Coffee was good but pricy for the small size. Also they add 7 euros to the bill for eating in rather than taking away. read more

This place is so adorable! I'm so glad we decided to stop by and check this place out (no yelp required this time, I know, shocking!) haha. They have gelato and pastries like pistachio tiramisu and Sicilian cannoli made to order to order for optimum freshness and crunchiness of the shell. I had the pistachio tiramisu and it was heavenly. My boyfriend got the half pistachio half cream cannoli which was recommended by the very kind workers there. He loved it so much, he finished it once we just got outside and went back for another. WOW! Must definitely check this place out if you're near the Trevi Fountain. read more

People - three words for you: pistachio filled cannoli. Add hazelnuts on one side and dark chocolate chips on the other and you have one of the most delicious desserts ever. This place is incredible. My husband and I stumbled upon this place after walking around for a bit and we may have intentionally stumbled on it the next day as well. OK, yes, we went twice. Don't judge. (And you won't after you've been there.) Also don't miss the sfogliatella (lobster tails). These have the perfect amount of ricotta filling and that crunch is divine. Did I convince you to go yet? Do not miss this place. read more

Located right next to the pantheon, this bakery is a must stop. They have other locations in Italy, but this specific one has a pistachio croissant that is to die for. It's flakey, buttery and filled with a sweet pistachio cream. I wish I could have brought it home! read more

My first and last experience with cannoli. Besides being pricey, it was extremely sweet. I had the pistachio nut cannoli that looked wonderful on display but over bearing in taste.

A very nice looking place. Unfortunately one of the pastries did not taste fresh. Like from the other day. Staff was not very friendly. The prices shocked me the most. 14 Euro for two capuchino and two pastries! This is triple the amount you pay every else!! We would not come back..... read more

We visited this local chain multiple times in two locations - near the Pantheon and Trevi Fountain. Both times, we had pastries. The Trevi Fountain location does not have Cappuccino, but the Pantheon location does. Great food, great pastries and coffee for reasonable prices. The service was fast and friendly and the lines were short. Everyone spoke English and didn't seem annoyed with the Americans! I will definitely seek out Don Nino when I am in Rome again! read more

This place is a bit expensive but the service is great. I got a waffle cone with pistachio and chocolate covering with gelato and it was so filling, had to share it. We also tried to the tiramisu which was very good. I spent 13 euros total I think but it was well worth it, wish I had the room to try more of the desserts! read more

I want Don Nino to open up a store in my neighborhood in San Diego, California. But, only if it's next to my house cuz I'm selfish and super obsessed! This was the only place my boyfriend and I visited three times during our 5 day stay in Rome. Out of all the cappuccinos my boyfriend tried, he liked Don Ninos the BEST. And that's saying a lot considering we tried the "best" cappuccino places in three cities. Me? I am traumatized by their pistachio cannolis.. I dream of them, if I could, I would marry them. They stuff the cannolis on the spot and roll them in different toppings (pistachios,nuts,chocolate chips). I didn't care that I gained 5 pounds during my trip here and proceeded to come two days in a row back to back. People..please come and eat here so I can live vicariously through you once I'm back in the US. I beg of you! read more

We spent the holidays in Rome, and having an excellent cannoli was the only thing missing from the experience. Finally, on the way to the Pantheon, the smell of fresh pastries called to us. The pistachio cannoli was made fresh, and was very good without being over sweet. read more

I have to politely disagree with the reviews before me as I found the gelato overrated and overpriced compared to other shops around Rome. Agree the interior is cute and very "IG selfie ready," but the flavors we tried were bland and uninspiring. I requested the smallest cone possible and chose pistachio and vanilla. The vanilla was boring and too sweet and the pistachio was my least favorite in all of Italy with no nutty flavor or taste of pistachio whatsoever. Also, the pricing was really ridiculous, 4 euros for two tiny scoops. My husband ordered chocolate, strawberry, and something else that was forgettable. The chocolate tasted like I was eating whole scoops of pure unsweetened cocoa powder at every lick, ugh. For three flavors his total was a whopping 7 euros, yikes! Together we regretfully spent 11 euros for takeaway gelato that turned out to the worst of our 17 day tour of Italy. There are so many better and more affordable options for gelato in this neighborhood, stay away. read more
