I ordered peach/blackberry cobbler, chose to forgo the ice cream. It tasted like "store bought" pies crumbled into a small paper cup. The peach tasted exactly like canned peach pie filling.

I have to say, this is absolutely a worthwhile experience. If you have kids with you during your…read morevisit. Our son absolutely loves his place. The ice cream and different product offerings are usually fantastic. Their presentation is always on spot. Service is a bit hit and miss, our order taker last week seemed genuinely uninterested and not welcoming at all. Everyone has an off day, and it is the end of the summer season, so I'm sure there's some fatigue there. This is a safe, clean and comfortable environment that I don't think twice about letting our teenager go in by himself and dine in if we are walking around the shopping center. The ice cream served up in the glass Mason jars is an absolute must do, cannot recommend enough. It's absolutely overpriced for ice cream, however, you do get what you pay for I think. Overall good experience.

My family has visited Gelato Joe's for many years. The first time we went the food, service, and…read moreatmosphere was incredible. We were welcomed like family. Over the years we have seen a steady decline in the upkeep of the restaurant, the service staff checking on customers and the food quality. The one item that has gone up exponentially is the cost of everything on the menu. We have continued to spend money here out of some false sense of nostalgia in hopes to see this place rebound. The picture I have included is a broken dish our food was served in. Luckily it was noticed before anyone in our party cut their hands on the protruding shards. The only reason I am giving this review 3 stars is because the live music performance by The Heat at the time we stopped in kept us there. I highly recommend looking them up and planning a night out to see them.

Amazing Place!! If…read moreyou're looking for great Italian food, Gelato Joe's is a must! Our server (John) was fantastic. I ordered Joes Lasagna and it was so delicious. I selected the strawberry salad which was also terrific. Our family loved this place. For dessert, they had a dozen plus flavors of gelatos and pastries. We also tried their cannolis. There was one chocolate dipped cannoli left and I fully believe no cannoli should be left alone. If you've never had a chocolate dipped cannoli in your life, you'll experience the same life changed moment I went through after taking my first bite. If you're in Foley or nearby, this is the place to eat at if you're in the mood for Italian food. It was worth every penny we spent.

We walked in and at the time that we went in was about 1130 and nobody was there. When we walked up to the counter, The staff that was present seem to be either a little annoyed, or perhaps a little overworked. The person that took our order indicated to us that due to building restrictions, they no longer carried hot food. So the menu is now consisting of cold sandwiches, salads, potato chips, and drinks. I ordered a egg salad sandwich and order a pasta salad and an iced tea. My grandson ordered hotdog plain with just ketchup and potato chips and a soda. Although the food was very tasty, I just cannot understand why the items that I had ordered totaled $26. The bread was good and fresh, but it wasn't toasted, and the pasta salad lacked a lot of the ingredients I am accustomed to seeing in a true pasta salad. I gave this four stars, as the food was very good, but again I thought was much pricier than what we received.

There was only one employee there at the time we stopped by. She got behind a bit as they also sell coffee drinks (including frappucinnos).

We bought a couple small things as treats for friends and family back home. We each tried a Heath Mocha frapp which was good, but pretty basic.
