Luckily we…read morecame at the dinner time so there wasn't a line out the store and down the street as warned by the locals and reviewers here. The gelato was creamy and light, so it delivered the flavor but not too heavy that sat in stomach. We ordered the award winning flavor - Mandorla Affogato (a twist of Affogato) which has bits of caramelized almond within the creamy vanilla background. I didn't get a strong espresso flavor as it would have, but the ratio of almond bits and gelato was just right - occasionally crunchiness hidden within the creaminess of gelato. The second flavor we ordered was the poached strawberry with balsamic vinegar. The acidity from balsamic vinegar and strawberry was muted yet complimented the gelato base. It was not too sweet, yet there's a hint of the balsamic vinegar and strawberry. We were too busy getting into the gelato before taking a picture, but check out this place if you are nearby. Here are some pictures of the store, which also offers coffee and cakes.

We got lucky because after we waited to order, there was a huge line behind us. They have a variety of ice cream flavors plus other items on their menu like cakes and teas. The staff was very patient with us as my sister wanted to order a milkshake which is different in the States compared to Australia. My sister wanted to make sure that what she expected in a milkshake would be understood and reciprocated to the staff. Even though they don't normally make a milkshake like the States do, they did their best. I enjoyed my ice cream and it was perfect to end the night.

One of my favorite places for gelato in Sydney. Always a line, but also well worth it.read more

Honestly, when it comes to fancy ice cream, these folk hit the bullseye more often than not. At the…read moreworst, it's been nice ice cream but a bit weird. Usually, I would try one of their many tantalising experimental flavours that'll make your tastebuds dance. I stuck with an oldie but a goodie.. choc orange. It was without a doubt the absolute BEST choc orange ice cream I have ever had. The chocolate was not too dark and not too sweet, and the orange had a depth of flavour that complimented the choc perfectly. The waffle cone was delightfully crisp. The only problem is that if it's available next time I go, I probably won't have something different. Not a bad problem to have really!

Well went there 3 weeks ago girl said sorry we are a new store cannot make crepes come back next week seemed weird but not to bothered went a 2nd tome guy said ohhh we are a new store come back next week we will have waffles and crepes at this point I'm annoyed sounds like a broken record I have since been back twice and the store is now closed. I'm not a inconsiderate person understandably everyone is going through hard times but excuse me don't accept my money if you cannot honour your end of the bargain great news they expire in 2 weeks and I gibe you not worth the travel or hassle.

When I studied abroad in Sydney, i-Creamy was one of the dessert places on my radar that I knew I…read morewould have to try! (And this review is dedicated to all you fellow Americans, as I found out that Australians prefer using Zomato over Yelp. I, for the life of me, could NOT get used to Zomato, so hopefully this'll just be one more review to help you out.) When we went on a weekend afternoon, the wait was actually okay. I've heard that people have waited over an hour just to get their gelato flower, and all I can say to that is YIKES. At the end of the day, it's only pretty looking gelato. It's delicious but not worth a wait longer than 20 minutes in my opinion. Now as for the ever famous gelato flower, they LIMIT what flavors you can order for the flower. They'll have about 20+ flavors in the case that you can order regular scoops of. But if you want the gelato flower, you have to pick your flavor(s) out of a pre-set menu of less than 10 flavors. Their gelato is very creamy, and they do have a bunch of different flavors like black sesame and young coconut! i-Creamy easily served me the prettiest looking gelato I've ever had, but there's definitely better and cheaper gelato places out there in Sydney. If you're a foodie looking for a good picture, this is definitely the place to visit (they also offer an impressive looking 9-scoop gelato platter!).

Very famous gelateria in Sydney with multiple locations around the city…read more I love that at 11 PM there was still a long line out the door of people on a date night getting gelato afterwards. There was something so sweet & simple about that. I wish you would see that more in the states. The gelato flavors change what seems like every day or every few days. I came here a few times during my trip and every time there were new specialty flavors on the board. Overall, most of the gelato flavors were too sweet for my liking but I was able to find a few that were palatable - bounty being one of them. The only reason I give it three stars is because of that, most flavors were too sweet. If that's your thing then you may love this place. I love that they stay open really late as well. In a city where most stuff closes early compared to what I'm used to, I did appreciate being able to get late night gelato especially because I love ice cream!

Like those Japanese temple thingys?" "Yeah but with a T, so no" I'll admit, I'd had a few by this stage so I was slur spelling. Pagoto has the very familiar two rows of gigantic tubs of gelato that exists at every good gelatician (I'm sure I just made that up but whatevs). Tubs of delectably designed decadent creamery that is impossible to resist - though I did manage to just get one scoop as flashbacks to the spin bike and how many revolutions each scoop is worth sizzled my senses. Watermelon and Feta... I spied this and my buddy told me to get a taste. How can I describe it? You know that face you pull when you first bite into a grapefruit? Got it? Ok... there you go. I finally settled on a burnt caramel crisp which was damn fine I might add. This is really great gelato, and there's clearly a lot of passion behind this place, with murals adorning the outside walls, whilst the interior is classy and suits the bizzo. Loved it, could be back... if I ever return to Oz.

(Even though it was only about 930p). Wound up trying a supposedly famous ice cream sandwich (aka gelato slider) but was quite disappointed. The cookies were pretty hard, so when you bit into the sandwich, the ice cream just oozed out. I have no problem getting a little messy, but think a true ice cream sandwich should have cookies that are a bit soft so they envelope the ice cream instead of compacting it. The nutella smear was a nice addition, and the flavor of the cookies and gelato were pleasing, but the quality of the cookies and overall experience left a lot to be desired. Would certainly try another dessert here, but can't recommend the sliders if you are an ice cream sandwich aficionado like myself!

Patagonia South American Ice Cream in Coogie, serves an extraordinary number of ice cream flavours and after much debate with my tastebuds, I decided on a thick shake with a mix of pana cotta, Snickers and Mars ice creams, the result was a delicious blend of creamy sludge. I think think shakes which could burst a rib from suction and this shake was thick, there must have been more than four scoops overall. The ice cream of South America has a different texture to what Australia considers traditional ice cream, it sits somewhere between ice cream & gelato, I assume that water replaces some of the milk quantity in the recipe. I personally prefer creamy milky icecream to the gelato style, but none the less this was very good.
