This is my first visit to Gio's Italian Ice and it will be my first choice when I come to Viera because I live one hour northeast of this location. I wanted to eat ice cream the temperature was 98F and while looking for Italian ice cream Gio's was only 4.6 miles away from our appointment I decided to try it. Im so glad I did. I ordered a Pineapple gelato with Vanilla ice cream and was happily surprised by the delicious Vanilla ice cream so good WOW!!! Sorry if my picture doesn't show how delicious it tasted read more

They were absolutely PHENOMENAL and the service is a 10/10. I highly recommend this to anybody whether it's for the desserts or their finger foods. read more

There are no bad flavors, do your self a favor and come here for dessert! read more

Best Italian ice I've had since my childhood in Brooklyn! My kids love it too! Friendly service.

I got the Salted Carmel Italian ice & it's honestly the best Italian ice flavor I've ever had !

OPEN ONE WEEK! GIO'S ITALIAN ICE! Gio's Italian Ice opened one week ago in the plaza behind Longdogger's. Coming north or south from I-95 they are off the new exit. (no number yet) Coming east it will be on your left off Viera Blvd. Coming west it will be on your right just past Murell Blvd. They are a family owned business and make everything homemade in their shop. The family is originally from Queen's and Long Island. Service with a smile and a thank you! They make homemade: Italian Ice Gelato (and soon) Soft serve Ice Cream I have been there a couple of times since it's opening and I can tell you it is excellent. Try the Cherry, Peach, and Orange Ice, those were my favorites. I hear the Gelato is excellent too! Please stop in and give them a try, you will not be disappointed. They are presently building a Web Page www.giositalianice.com Instagram: gios_italian_ice Facebook: Gios-Italian-Ice read more

I was just in the area to charge my car and since I had to wait, I walked over to Gio's Italian Ice. OMG!!! I'm so glad I did. Everything is freshly made. The service was great and the Italian ice is delicious. This is a Gem ! Now that I know they're here, I'll be stopping by more often. read more

Great selection and friendly staff. It's a little pricey but definitely delicious. Italian Ice is fantastic. Highly recommend.

I got the hazelnut gelato and it tasted like I was eating leather. The gelato wasn't even creamy, I found multiple chunks of ice in my gelato. My boyfriend who has been to Italy said it was the worst gelato he has ever had. Waste of $12. read more

the lady (owner) was very rude and unprofessional towards me and my family. Also to mention they didnt pay my friend for training after 3 weeks the owner had very nasty and rude attitude about it as well. I do not recomend this place, I regret going here. bad experience. Also do not recommend working here either, since they refuse to pay workers for training and take the job back after a day of working. and for context, it was simply because they "changed their mind" my friend didn't even do wrong. This is unfair and rude. Terrible business. read more

It sounds like a strange flavor for Italian Ice, but the mint chip was so good. We will definitely be back!

According to our four year old, "the ice cream is fantastic and the cotton candy Italian ice is super yummy! One day, you should try some." read more

My dad and I were walking back from dinner and happened to drop in at 8:19 pm (11 minutes before they closed). There was only one girl working and she could have been rude to us for coming right before close, but instead was incredibly sweet and helpful. My dad and I have never had Italian ice before, so naturally, we had a lot of questions and she kindly answered every one. My dad was thrilled to discover that it has no dairy as he is lactose intolerant. We both enjoyed our flavors so much and will 100% be back! I highly recommend!! read more

This was the best Italian ice I've had since leaving NYC; it's even served in those squeezable paper cups. Their gelato is also excellant.

Growing up on Long Island the highlight of my week was always when the weekend would roll around and we would head in to town for a slice and an ice. Larry and his wife (delightful couple from Astoria, NYC) have brought a gift to this area. Everything about their product written in other reviews here is 100% true and correct. A proper Italian ice for sure. I've always been partial to Chocolate ice and theirs is very rich and full of flavor. Tried about a half dozen of the other fruit flavors so far, all winners. There's something here for every taste preference. For me Green Apple is my #1 choice fruit flavor. I met Larry a few weeks ago (it was my second visit) and lamented that they were still out of Vanilla Chocolate Chip which I had wanted to try before. He told me that he would make up a fresh batch. I walked in today and he said `Where have you been? We almost ran out.' Walked in the back and pulled out of the freezer a pre-packed quart they had held aside just for me. It's amazing! Just a touch of cream to hold up the vanilla flavor in the ice and no where near as heavy and rich (or fattening) to eat as pure ice cream. Walked out with my pint of Vanilla Chocolate Chip, a pint of Chocolate and a small Peach ice. Hunter served me the last time I was there, a very nice and pleasant fine young man for sure. Taste a few samples to see what flavors you enjoy the most before you order. Make sure you take home a few pints or quarts with you too! You won't regret it. read more

Great little gelateria. All their gelato and italian ice are homemade. I will definitely return when in the neighborhood.

Gio's was perfect! The service was wonderful and friendly. I had a sweet cream gelato layered with salted caramel Italian ice and it was to die for. Can't wait to go back. read more

Love this place. You have to try the Gio special. The Ice cream is amazing And you can't go wrong with any flavor Italian ice

When getting gelatos, the portions/scoops are way smaller than the price you pay for them.

This place is AH-MA-ZING !!!!! My husband and I stopped in to try this place out and honestly it was the best yet ! I had the passion fruit and he had the mango and the flavors were to die for ! Each bite has a small pieces of fruit mixed into the Italian ice that just gives it what it needs. The owners were very nice . Loving the mom and pop feel,makes me feel back at home ! definitely coming back for more ! read more

Brand new place. We checked it out going in for gelato but got the Gios special instead. Their soft serve was down but that was great because then we got gelato in between the Italian ice layers. Dessert was great, prices are a little on the expensive side read more

Wow! The taste was amazing! I had chocolate softy with cherry Italian ice in layers. I was hesitant to try it but I'm sure glad I did! The Italian ice was one of the best I've had! I will be back! read more

Best Gelato and ice I have tasted out of New York. Larry and his wife were great and the place, service, and product were exceptional..

We have been there twice. It is a closer alternative to Rita's. Got the medium first go around and second go around figured small was big enough. Got the Gio's special which is Italian Ice mixed with Ice Cream. Couples times we have been in there the boys working seemed a little disorganized. Other than that, it's been great read more

Love love love.....best Italian Ice we have had since leaving NY...this is really good and authentic. Lemon, Cherry and in the original paper cups. This couldn't get any better. If you miss East Coast Italian Ice, this is the place to go...We will be back read more

My family is in love! Everything we tried today was absolutely delicious. The owners were so kind and excited to tell us about their product. Everything is homemade with their own recipes. The vanilla soft serve has a special secret ingredient and is the best I've ever had! We had several different Italian ice flavors, they were all very good but the peach and passion fruit were exceptional! read more

Really enjoyed the nutella gelato... it melted kind of quickly, but it's 90 degrees outside. I also tried a Gio Special: Root Beer italian ice with vanilla soft ice cream... great combination. Prices are not bad. read more

Premium quality. Don't miss out on this! Love the gelato mixed with soft serve. Friendly hard working staff.

Stopped in today, very surprised how good the ices are. The ices are the closest thing to getting a "Ralph's Italian ice" here in Florida. I had a passion fruit and pina colada mix. Both excellent, the owner makes all the flavors in store. Definitely worth a visit. read more
