Date of visit: May 26, 2025 While I wasn't necessarily hungry, shakes fill in the cracks, right? This place was hopping as I walked by so I was pretty sure it had to be good and it did not disappoint! I snagged a small pistachio bar for mom, who demolished it! For me I went with the fior di latte, which translates to flower of milk. In English, we could potentially equate this with our saying of "cream of the crop." It was a flavor that I had never experienced before, not milk per se, but also not vanilla. At any rate, it was delicious. I only hope I can find it again outside of Italy and relive the experience. read more

Great gelato, in the dream setting of Bellagio! I tried two flavors; pistachio, and raspberry chocolate, both amazing. I just wish I had time to try everything! read more

My husband the gelato connisour said that this was the best gelato he had on our whole Italy trip. Small shop in bellagio nestled among all of the tourist shops, but hands down his favorite! read more

This was arguably the best gelato I had while visiting Northern Italy. We stayed in an Airbnb right next door to this place and didn't decide to visit until our last day in Bellagio. Safe to say I had fomo for passing on it the first 3 days of our visit!! read more

Smooth Operators - Strawberry & Cream Gelato - Bellagio, LC

We arrived into Bellagio and wanted to start our vacation off with a gelato, so we stopped at the first gelato shop we came across. Smooth Operators was busy but the line moved fast. Unfortunately, the lady behind the counter was not very friendly, but we decided to stay and order anyway. We ordered two cones with a scoop of hazelnut, we were hoping for coffee flavored ,but they didn't have it.This gelato was fantastic and the waffle cones were fresh and oh, so yummy! It was a warm and beautiful day in Bellagio which meant we had to eat it fast as it was melting quickly. Definitely worth a stop while strolling the beautiful cobblestone streets of Bellagio. Enjoy! read more

Utterly amazing lemon "popsicle" made from real fruit, not sweet, not sour, but just-right-tart! Refreshing & only €2.50. Located a very short walk from ferry terminal. Perfect for a light treat, when gelato is just too much. Several fruit flavors available. read more
