La Dolce Vita Gelato & Pastry is one of those rare gems that doesn't just serve dessert - it builds…read morecommunity, connection, and genuine joy with every visit. From day one, the owner has made us feel welcomed, remembered, and truly part of his world, and that level of hospitality is something you can't manufacture. It's real, and it's why this place stands out. The gelato is on another level entirely. I've traveled, tasted, and tried gelato in major cities and abroad, and nothing (absolutely nothing) compares to what's being crafted right here in our growing Ocala. The flavors rotate constantly, keeping every visit exciting and perfectly matched to whatever mood you're in. Each batch is rich, smooth, balanced, and made with a passion you can taste. We've never left with a single regret, only smiles and that satisfied "this hit the spot" feeling. And honestly, the gelato here deserves worldwide recognition. It's that exceptional. But what truly elevates La Dolce Vita is the owner himself - someone who cares deeply not just about his shop, but about the people who walk through his doors. His pride, kindness, and consistency have created a place that feels like home for so many of us. Ocala is lucky to have this treasure. Thank you to the AMAZING owner who has poured years of heart into serving this community. This is a must‑visit, a must‑return, and a place that continues to set the bar for what great gelato (and great hospitality) should be.

My friend went in to order sfogliatelle and a black and white cookie. He said the woman behind the counter was a bit impatient with him as he was looking at all the pastries and actually shook her head in frustration. I took one bite of the cookie and couldn't eat it. Both it and the sfogliatelle had a musty taste, though my friend said the inside of the shop didn't smell musty. I wanted to be one of the ones to rave about this place. Sadly, I cannot.

Our order took 35 minutes for a burger and onion rings. And when we finally got our order, they left the onion rings out of our togo bag. If anyone wants to enjoy Culver's in the Ocala area, skip this one and go across town. Any place this bad should have their franchise rescinded. UPDATE: Team Member Culver's reply to our Yelp review instructing us to log into their website and give details. Our very simple review - our order took a ridiculous 35 minutes. And the onion rings we paid for were not included in our togo bag. This Culver's location sucks. Simple enough? Better Team Member Culver's go radio silent than reply with such a lame request. Your time may be better spent training your folks, or better yet closing down this location.

So I was pretty excited to see this store when it turned up near my mom's house a few weeks ago…read more The outside of the store looks pretty nice and the parking lot is relatively clean so that gets them one star. The interior has more stuff than I've ever seen in a 7-Eleven so that gets them another star. That's about where it ends. So I spent about 20 minutes trying to pay at the pump with the app and it simply didn't work it tried seven times and multiple different credit cards and no matter what I tried it simply didn't work. They have this pop-up in the app that says so sorry this didn't work do you want us to email you, well no I don't. I would like to get some gas please. Moving onto the inside, the prices are insane. Leaving aside the incredibly annoying fact that they don't have lids to fit the big gulp so basically you can get a lid for a different size cup and just sort of lay it on top or you do without in your car which is never a good idea, for instance a 3 inch empanada is two dollars. So the girl at the counter was super friendly at the food section, very nice obviously young and she asked me if I wanted a sample which was very interesting. I will mention that everybody is friendly just like when you go to Moe's they all holler hello when you walk inside. So I go over to the food and I look at the taco options and I ordered the two tacos which is a pretty decent deal for two tacos and two sides although the sides are about 2 ounces each they have the small little spoons and they make sure that they wax the spoon on the side of the container so that it doesn't rise up over the edge of the spoon that's giving you more than the exact precise 2 ounces of beans that you're supposed to get. The tacos looked OK however as I'm standing there the girl asked me if I want queso to which I say yes. She put one tablespoon which she also knocked on the edge of the container to make sure it wasn't too full, on each taco. They also added lettuce and tomatoes. I get to the checkout register and they charged me two dollars for those 2/2 tablespoons of queso. She forgot to mention that they charge for that actually I believe they're doing that on purpose and hoping you don't notice. Some guy comes up behind her and says well it's right there on the sign and he points to a sign that's right next to the register which of course is nowhere near where you stand when you're actually ordering the food so there's no way to know about it until after the fact. So now I'm very annoyed because they literally charged me one dollar per taco for half a tablespoon of watery queso. They're supposed to have like a salsa bar but they take your food down to the checkout register before you can put anything on there so by the time you get all the way down there and wait in line it's just too much of a headache to try to go back and add things to your tacos so it was a incredibly frustrating and completely annoying visit for which I will not make another mistake like that again. The African-American boy behind the counter who was snotty about me asking the girl why they charge me $.99 each for a half a tablespoon of queso dip literally looks at me like I'm stupid and points to the sign which you cannot see from where you order tacos and says well it's right there on the sign. So congratulations Circle K you just lost a regular customer because that's sort of treatment and that sort of nickel and diamond behavior is not something that I'm ever going to support. I'll take my gasoline and my big gulp and my snack needs down the road to the next gas station who doesn't try to nickel and dime me for every single thing. They had so many people working in the place and yet most of the food bins were almost empty, it was crazy how many people were standing around behind the counter, the empanadas and corn dogs and those sort of things in the hot cabinet were all over cooked and looked like they had been there for a little while, I didn't get pictures because I was so annoyed with the girl telling me she's going to charge me almost $12 for two tacos after they are on tax and fees and charges and queso. In a gas station. ridiculous. Save your money the app is more of a headache than it's worth and that store is way too proud of their food to make it worth it.

Seriously, it's a sweet tooth's paradise! After leaving La Hacienda I was craving something sweet. I always pass by this place as I leave La Hacienda and so I had to give it a try. The selection here is insane (in the best way)--so many unique flavors that make it almost impossible to choose. I sampled their Abuelita (Mexican hot chocolate vibes--rich and slightly spicy), Fruity Pebbles (childhood nostalgia in every creamy bite), and Patrón Tequila (yes, tequila in gelato form, and it's as good as it sounds!). But when it came time to make the big decision, I finally settled on Tres Leches and Ferrero Rocher--and WOW. The Tres Leches was a dream come true: velvety, smooth, and perfectly balanced with that classic sweet milk flavor we all know and love. The bites of tres leches cake in between each bite was moist too. As for Ferrero Rocher? Absolute decadence in every bite, with just the right touch of nuttiness and chocolate goodness. Both flavors nailed it on creaminess and texture--it held up beautifully without melting too quickly. And the best part? None of that artificial sweetness. You can tell they use real ingredients. The lady behind the counter was incredibly friendly and clearly knew her stuff. She walked me through the flavors and gave some great recommendations, which made the experience even better. If you're looking for authentic Mexican gelato that's bursting with flavor and texture, this spot is pure gold. Trust me--once you try it, you'll be planning your next visit before you even leave the parking lot.
