Il proprietario minaccia una persona per una stella su Google recension per aver raccontato la…read moreverità queste le parole : "Per quanto riguarda, invece, la parte finale della recensione, in cui ci accusa di aver causato a lei e sua figlia, "dolori di pancia e nausea", eh no, qui siamo nel campo della diffamazione. Lei, senza alcuna prova, ci muove accuse pesantissime che danneggiano la nostra immagine. Pertanto, se entro 7 giorni a partire da oggi, non apporterà delle modifiche sostanziali alla sua recensione, rimuovendo la parte diffamatoria, saremo costretti a ricorrere alle vie legali" in quanto nell'unica giornata in cui ho preso il gelato lì (se così può chiamarsi) oltre ai dipendenti con voglia di lavorare sotto le scarpe c'è il fatto che dopo due bocconi ho buttato il gelato ho iniziato ad avere forti dolori e sudare freddo ho dovuto far guidare la mia macchina a mia madre di corsa per andare al primo autogrill perché ho pensato sinceramente di morire dai dolori provocati e mi spiace che il proprietario pensi di essere l'unico a fare il gelato su Roma e non saper ricevere critiche ma quel giorno non avevo mangiato altro se non appunto quei pochi bocconi del "gelato". Non dimenticherò mai quella sensazione ringraziasse che io non abbia fatto nulla giuridicamente parlando. Ma poi seriamente si minacciano le persone senza alcuna conoscenza giuridica per una stella su Google? Auguri per chi andrà a mangiare lì ma sinceramente anche fosse stato l'errore di quel giorno io con un proprietario che minaccia le di denunce non vorrei averci niente a che fare mai nella vita. Nei confronti per altro di una donna anzi una mamma che ha solo raccontato come sono andati i fatti preoccupata anche per tutto ciò che mi è successo. Rabbrividisco davanti a tutto ciò. Si preoccupasse meno del gelato e più di curare l'empatia e la sua umanità perché è così che si perde la reputazione essendo cattive persone.

In the past, I knew of Gelateria Navona, just a few doors up from the actual piazza, and that was…read moremy go-to place for gelato in Rome. Expecting it to be there one year, I walked over to Piazza Navona and Gelateria Navona had evidently closed. I would then get gelato here and there. I then learned that Giolitti is a long standing gelateria and it's also in the historic center. I filed the name away in my head. Then, one day, I happened to walk right in front of it without even looking for it, so I went in. Giolitti is popular and it can be crowded. I'm going to say that I waited about 10 to 15 minutes. You pay at a counter first, deciding on what you want and how much of it, such as scoops and whether it will be in a cup or a cone. Once up at the counter, they don't rush you, which surprised me. I don't take that much time since I don't experiment much, but I still appreciate the courtesy. The price is roughly what everyone else in the historic center is charging. I always opt for the gelato it in a cup so you can "control" the dripping. The gelato - a mix of dark chocolate and two citrus flavors - was "molto buono." That said, just because it's so popular, I'm not going to downgrade Giolitti for it and complain about the crowds. You downgrade gourmet donut places in the U.S. where their fame has gone to their heads. There is also a spacious salon with nicer decor in which you can eat inside. At this point, Giolitti is really the only gelateria in Rome whose name I remember. I would gladly go back and I recommend it.

Legendary Roman Ice Cream…read more * * * La Romana has been around since 1947. That does not make it the oldest gelateria by a long shot. But 1947 puts La Romana in the "senior class" for sure. That means almost 50 years of driving thousands of people insane with pleasure from utterly amazing ice cream. That is a good way to spend 50 years. * * * Most Italian Gelato places are very consistent. If one flavor is good, they all are good. If one flavor is fake or artificial, they all are fake and artificial. That said - despite La Romana's full range, The establishment is known for one distinctive flavor that is very much their signature. Crema dal 1947. Crema dal 1947 is absolutely and utterly insane. It is an eggnog custard gelato subtly flavored with lemon zest. It is the most creamy dreamy lemon cloud dessert every made by any human being. Just to get an appropriate placement within the lemon family, I paired it with a plain lemon gelato. Rome has absolutely amazing lemons. Plain lemon gelato almost anywhere is die-and-go-to-heaven good. Putting eggnog custard creamy dream Crema dal 1947 With bracing in-your-face screaming lemon-lemon-lemon traditional gelato Was like pairing Margot Robbie as Barbie with Amy Winehouse singing her soul out. Both were absolutely perfect for what they are. I want to have that ice cream cone tonight, tomorrow, the day after that, the day after that and every other consecutive day for the next consecutive 50 years. When La Romana becomes 100 years old, I can think about changing flavors. But it is hard to argue with perfect perfection.

If you've had gelato in Rome, you already know the standard is different--and Gelateria La Romana…read moreis one of those places that actually lives up to it. Everything tastes super fresh and creamy, and the flavors feel really authentic without being overly sweet or artificial. What I liked most is how consistent it is--whether you go for classics like pistachio or something more indulgent, it always tastes rich and high quality. It's the kind of spot where you can tell they really care about what they're making. The vibe is simple and focused on the gelato itself, not anything flashy, which honestly fits perfectly for a place like this. Always worth stopping by if you're in Rome and want proper gelato.
