It's a tiny shop right next to the church in the center of the square. There was a little bit of a line but it moved quickly. We both got two flavors with pistachio being one and we both loved it. I had chocolate with mine and my friends was a fruit flavor that I don't recall the name of.

Apparently it's a super known place, old and appreciated in Valencia. They won some award and they are also famous for creating some original flavors like paella, gazpacho, salmon.... Well I'm not so adventurous and as I said I wanted something sweet so I choose something more basic : blueberry ans mango. My enthusiasm ended pretty soon, at the first bite actually, this is just not tasting good...you can barely recognize the flavor because of a strong taste of cream and sugar. I should have guess that seeing the colors ot it, too pale to taste like the real fruit. So, this is more that disappointing...I was really speechless looking at all those people enjoying their ice-cream and I was thinking to myself "Am I too demanding?", it may be because I lived in Italy and had the best ice-cream there...then I try this one another time annnnddd nope! This is just not good at all, I coudn't finish it and it ended in the trash... Conclusion : make yourself your own opinion, and don't trust the crowd, some people just has no taste :)

It wasn't even a hot day but I knew I had to try what Amorino had to offer and I wasn't disappointed. I'm no connoisseur; I just enjoy gelato as much as the next guy. But the gelato that Amorino makes has the selection of flavors I have come to expect and, of equal import, the texture. The real thing that make this place special is the care with which they dip up the cones. Instead of simply slapping gelato onto the crown, the gelatistas carefully craft gelato flowers, layering "petals" in and around the cone. It's really something to behold!

We stopped in to try out their famous horchata, fartons, and churro & hot chocolate…read more When you walk in, depending on the size of your party, one of the waitresses will point you to certain tables to sit at. When we went it was busy, but we were able to get a table right away. Since they are known for their horchata and fartons, it was easy to know what to order. The horchata was refreshing, not overly sweet and not heavy on the cinnamon like it is back in the US. The farton we dipped in the horchata. It was light, airy, warm and fresh. It doesn't have a ton of flavor but it's still tasty. On our second visit, we got the churros and chocolate. We only tried a couple different ones on our trip but the churros here were my favorite. Crunchy outside, soft on the inside, and the chocolate was the perfect level of sweetness for me. Overall, a great spot for a quick dessert, and would definitely eat here again if I was back in Valencia

I was going to another recommended Horchata spot and our Hotel changed my mind and insisted…read moreCatalina was the best one to visit. As I approached, it was clear this was the spot. They were busy with multiple people taking pictures of the entrance. They have two levels but only the 1st level was being used. I was seated immediately close to the entrance. I didn't see any outdoor seating. Beautifully decorated with Valencia/Spanish tiles throughout. I ordered the specialty Horchata and Bunuelos. Horchata is served cold and is dairy free (although it seems like it has Dairy) and was a bit too sweet for me but definitely one to try. Bunuelos was tasty and had more of a donut texture. They also had Churros and a few other pastries along with Hot Chocolate and Ice Cream. Service was quick and friendly. A good mix of Locals and Tourists. Definitely a must Valencia stop!

The cone itself was pretty terrible and it could have fit much more gelato then it actually did! I tryed mango and some sort of cookie, the mango wasn't terrible but the cookie was!

For our order, we wanted to eat our gelato in a cup but we were unable to because the staff said there were no spoons. When we finally got what we order (which was one strawberry, one Violeta and one melon) they tasted absolutely terrible. The melon tasted like water and aspartame, the strawberry tasted super sour, and the Violeta tasted like Chapstick. The cone tasted better than gelato!! We paid €10,50 total and it was definitely not worth it. Would NOT recommend to anyone.

Caramelandia is not only my favorite heladeria in Valencia, but in all of Spain...and dare I say…read moreit? All of the world. There is no seating area; just a stand along the street where one can order from about 15 flavors of ice cream or purchase an inexpensive soda or bottle of water. I'm very honest when I say that this is my favorite heladeria. I could be on the outskirts of town, but I will trek to the center of town (working up quite a sweat!) and stop for a cone. The flavors are very typical of what you may find in Spain - turrón, nata, trufa, Rocher. I love the intensity of the flavors and how smooth and creamy the ice cream is. It makes even the richest of ice creams in the United States seem as though they were made with skim milk. My favorite combination is one scoop turrón (the best I've had and I've eaten A LOT of turrón ice cream - it tastes like biting into a piece of Jijona turrón) and one scoop trufa (a vanilla-based ice cream that has an abundance of chocolate shavings; you cannot even see the vanilla base. The shavings look as though they were made with a pencil sharpener!) Although there is no seating, there are plenty of benches near Plaza de La Reina (a short walk away).
