There's usually a line, but it moves fast. One line to go in and one line coming out. Its located right across the ferry. They have seats and benches which was nice. The view is nice also as you get a direct view of the lake. I highly recommend this.

Solid gelato; but definitely not worth the crazy lines. And because they're so insanely busy, they…read moredon't let you taste flavors, they rush you, and be incredibly rude at times. I personally liked Gelab Gelataria and Gelato Crea Lake Como better, because of the gelato quality and being all natural. Andddd way shorter lines because they're not over hyped! In any case, if you do come when lines are short, get 3 flavors at once, and in a cup because their gelato is watery and melts FAST! I liked pistachio, stracciatella, and their caramel hazelnut. My friends liked their vanilla and peach. I admit there's better gelato elsewhere - even in and out of Italy. But sure, this is definitely the most popular spot in Como and near the water. I actually think that's why it's got the longest lines. Location, not quality.

My friends and I were walking down the main street of Como when we stumbled upon this storefront…read more We were craving gelato, and from some of the signs on their windows, it seemed like they've received awards in the past, so we gave it a try. I ordered the Nocciola (hazelnut) and pistachio gelati in a cone. It was absolutely wonderful and delicious. I'm glad to have tried my first authentic Italian gelato here! Although you can buy gelato straight from the window at the storefront, it took a few minutes before one of the workers noticed we were trying to buy gelato. From the outside, it looked like they had a bar and their website says they also serve pastries and brunch. We were able to pay with card, so don't fret if you don't have any euros on you! - You'll still be able to enjoy some delicious desserts from here!

Out of my 3 weeks Italy backpacking trip this was probably my least favorite gelato experience. We…read morecame in after a long day of walking around for a quick treat before our train left. I went with a Bambino size (kid size) for 1.50 euros after sampling one flavor. I went with their pistachio flavor which was okay. The girl behind the counter was rude and kept rolling her eyes at us although we did not do anything wrong. She was very unfriendly. They didn't have many flavors to choose from and their gelato melted fast. There was also no place to sit and enjoy your treat. Since there are so many other places to get gelato, I would not recommend this place.

Their gelato was not as advertised: the sign said mascarpone with pistachio. But what I received had raisins in it! And, it was icy rather than creamy. Keep walking, and try to find a gelateria with covered bins where they cherish their product.

The garden patio in back is cool and inviting, and nicely shielded from the drone of buses. The large combination dish of cacao and zabaglione gelatos that my fiancee and I shared was very good. Looking back with 20/20 hindsight I should have ordered my own dish in order to target the delicious looking cherry flavor. Probably a great place to bring unruly kids, since you can wrangle them all in the garden patio away from the disapproving eyes of stuffy waitstaff... whilst stoking them with more sugar...

Cervo is located along the shores of Lake Como, with spectacular views from our patio-side table. Service was friendly and efficient, and my pesto pasta was quite scrumptious, especially in comparison to the disappointing pastas I had in Milan, prior to arriving in Como. The house-made pesto sauce tasted fresh and dare I say, bold. Mind you, I've had better pastas before right here in LA, but they didn't come with breathtaking views like Cervo does. All in all, Cervo was a hit with our group.
