    Gelati Celesti is a go-to in my family. From the insane amount of flavors to choose from (even though I almost always get Chocolate Decadence). I absolute love their mint chip and amaretto flavors too. We've even ordered a 6-flight of ice cream this past Valentine's Day and it was the absolute best V-Day outing. Everything is made fresh and in house. You really can't beat a visit to Gelati Celesti. The service is always friendly and they always recommend trying any flavors to see what you're in the mood for! We always end up eating our ice cream at one of the many tables inside or outside. It's a great spot with multiple locations! It's the perfect place for dessert or a sweet treat any time of day! I love Gelati Celesti.

    We are frequent fliers at Gelati Celesti and I have yet to have an experience less than 5 stars. We are always welcomed in by friendly employees... I mean, who wouldn't be happy working at an ice cream shop?! I love the variety of flavors - including dairy free options! We usually come about once a month to try a monthly release. You can taste as many of the options as you like, which is great if you're undecided! Staff is always patient while you're deciding (which can take a while if you're 5 years old and like everything that has chocolate in it)! The store is bright, clean and inviting with plenty of seating. They also have an outdoor area with tables that is perfect on nice days. They offer to-go options already packaged as well as other sweet treats like ice cream sandwiches and cakes. Price point is pretty high when compared with purchasing in the stores, but absolutely worth it for an occasional sweet treat unlike anything you can get in a grocery store!

    This is a large and very nice GC location. I love the decor and there is a ton of seating with a water station and two unisex restrooms. Staff were exceptionally friendly when my friend and I stopped in for a sweet treat after dinner next door. They were happy to let us sample until we made up our minds and were really patient with the group in front of us whose daughter probably tasted every flavor they had. Haha. My friend is allergic to soy so she was thrilled to see the allergy info listed for every flavor and included soy! I got cookies and cream and mint scoops in a cup and she had a Dulce de Leche milkshake. Both were delish.

    Just Ask

    I'm obsessed! Staff is friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable about the products. I've visited a lot in the last two weeks. My go to is a waffle cone with chocolate decadence - very rich chocolate like brownie batter, just ask - vanilla ice cream with crushed cookies and peanut butter ribbons, and my absolute favors vanilla chip - vanilla with big broken pieces of chocolate The restaurant is always clean. There is outdoor seating on the side of the building. Also a walk up window to order from. Special mention to Mia* for not judging my multiple visits. Stop by and check this place out!

    So good

    Love this ice cream!! Has to be my fave in the area. Inside is fresh and modern. I love how they also have a rotating set of special flavors to try. My all time favorite flavor has to be their banana. It's so fresh and real and not a fake banana flavor. The staff is friendly and will let you taste whatever flavors you want. Anytime we are in the area we always have to grab this ice cream.

    I highly recommend the butter pecan and the cherry vanilla! Some of the best I've had ever. The icecream has a great flavor and such a nice consistency.

    One of my favorite spots to satisfy my sweet tooth! I'm so glad they opened a spot closer to us in Town Center! The staff is friendly and their gelato flavors are fresh and flavorful. The place is always so clean when we come by and the staff is welcoming. I'm always looking forward to coming here and seeing what new flavors they have available. So far, my favorite is the almond amaretto! Next on my list to try is one of their ice cream cakes!

    Apple crumble with caramel
    Traci B.

    Good gawd this stuff is good. Got the apple crumble with caramel. Just ask is amazing. The cookie chunks are huge!

    Kara M.

    Absolutely delicious. Everything was clean and pristine inside. We also took some ice cream cookie sandwiches to go. All of the cool flavors were awesome. We were able to try as many as we wanted! We will definitely be going back. The fact that the ice cream is homemade, makes this place even better. I don't think their are cake cones were homemade, but possibly their waffle cones. I'm really happy I found a new ice cream joint. Definitely recommend for those who haven't stopped by yet.

    Coconut cream
    Mary R.

    Hello. My name is MG and I am an ice cream-aholic. Not only did I partake at an awesome yelp event at the Chesapeake location prior to lunch. I also decided to check out their First Colonial location to try their (Post) Melone flavored ice cream after lunch. Now, don't get me wrong. I had the coconut cream topped off with the coffee and cream flavors at the Chesapeake location which was energizing and tropical all at the same time?! I didn't know whether I should start cleaning my house or add a paper umbrella to my coconut cream flavored ice cream and relax! You know their ice cream is something to scream about if I went to 2 different locations in one day! Hahahah

    Small scoop of Just Ask
    Thiane G.

    I've heard great things about Gelati Celesti so I'm glad I got to try it out. The staff was very helpful and patient as my family and I tried different flavors. I got a small cup of the Just Ask flavor. I think it was cookies and cream with peanut butter. It was very tasty. My only feedback would be maybe making the peanut butter pieces smaller. Looking forward to trying other flavors there soon as the weather gets warmer.

    Outdoor seating with take out window
    Yoonie L.

    So excited that Gelati Celesti (GC) opened a location in Chesapeake! They are just inching closer to us and we couldn't be happier. Don't get me wrong, if we had to drive to Town Center or Hilltop, we'd do it without hesitation. It would be worth the drive, but this makes it even more convenient to indulge. This store is located in the newest construction zone across from Summit Pointe. Love that they are in the same complex as Aldi. Makes multi-tasking easier, another win. Same layout as the one in Town Center, slightly smaller. However, Town Center has the covered outdoor patio, but in Chesapeake, they have the takeout window like the one at Hilltop. You can find all your favorites: 24 regular flavors and 12 rotating flavors. I have had most of their flavors, either from ordering a small cup or getting a milkshake or simply with a sample. My fave is the coffee & cream. The best! And then, if I'm lucky, they have a cheese flavor like blueberry ricotta or ricotta and chocolate. Today, I had the blueberry cheesecake in the form of a milkshake. The consistency was smooth and creamy as usual. They give you a boba straw with the milkshakes which are perfect for this milkshake because there were blueberry bits and cheesecake chunks! So good! My kids got GC's sorbettos and have yet to be disappointed with their choices! Service is always courteous and helpful here, which is consistent with their other locations. So happy they are closer to us! Stay safe, Friends!

    Chocolate Decadence
    Nicole H.

    Gelati Celesti has the best ice cream! I found a new amazing flavor-chocolate decadence. It is a very rich chocolate flavor that is AMAZING! Staff is always so happy and enthusiastic. I like the lavender and Oreo mint flavors too that I got to sample. They are very generous with sampling. Thank you! Place is spotless and organized all the time. Decor is great and provides for great picture opportunities. Parking is easy and location is across Summit Pointe. I always have a great time at this Gelati Celesti.

    This was not gelato. Fine ice cream but the name is misleading. The fruit selections looked good but were overwhelmingly sweet.

I was impressed by the number of different flavors that they had available and they all sound delicious!! I ended up getting a Salted Caramel Butter pecan scoop in a waffle cone and my girlfriend got the banana pudding in a cup. Both were smooth and creamy and not overly sweet. I can't wait to go back and try some of their other flavors. Our total was about 12 dollars. The place was nice and clean with several places to sit and the young ladies that were working were kind and polite! Make sure you try it out and let me know your fave flavor!!

    Sundae Scoop is really amazing! I'm not an ice cream lover. But I love Sundae Scoop…read more Leaving a doctor appointment in Chesapeake early this week I was excited that I would pass Sundae Scoop on the way home. I pulled into the shopping center & found a locked door at the shop. Peeping into the window I saw that it was definitely closed. Disappointed I turned to leave. A man wheeling in what must have been today's prepared ice creams asked me if I wanted ice cream. When I answered in the affirmative he unlocked the door & turned on the lights. I learned that during the winter they don't open till 3. Asking if he was the owner, he confirmed that he & his wife were. Going to the back while I got my two pints of Ube Ice Cream from the cooler, he returned with three complementary containers of flavors that I hadn't tried. Sharing with him the fact that I wasn't an Ice Cream person but loved his, he asked if it was the Ube. I told him that flavor was my favorite but it was because his tasted different & so much better than other Ice Cream. Mentioning that other Ice Cream was just too sweet. He confirmed that was the biggest mistake people made preparing Ice Cream. He certainly knows the best way to prepare the deliciousness. Somehow we also even got on the topic of NFL Football. Don't I always? It's wonderful to learn that one of my favorite spots is owned by such a friendly & nice person. He didn't have to unlock the door so I could buy Ice Cream. But he did. So I left the store with a bag full of my favorite treat. If you haven't yet tried Sundae Scoop you've missed the best Ice Cream in Coastal Virginia. Even if it's not in your part of the Metro, make a trip there. You won't regret it.

Since then, I have retired and moved from New York to Chesapeake, Virginia. This particular frozen dessert location is found on Volvo Parkway just off Battlefield Blvd ( North). Parking isn't an issue and the store is located amongst in a strip of stores. This establishment was relatively clean and offered several flavors. My wife and I had their no sugar added cheesecake frozen yogurt. They also offer a wide variety of dry ingredient toppings. The only negative I can relay isn't strictly against this location specifically. It's a bit expensive. So just keep in mind that prices are based on weight.. so loading up your dessert may cost you. Otherwise, it's a very refreshing dessert location.
