Still one of my favorite flavor combinations from here is the chocolate (I think specifically it's Chocolate Hazelnut) and the coffee flavor in a single size. Really anything you get here is going to be amazing but I am just basing that on personal preference alone. The owners are always really nice. As to be expected it can get busy in the summer so we swing by here on cooler days and not blazing hot ones.

Amazing flavors. Our group tried a bit of everything- pistachio, banana, cherry, tiramisu, …read more.. loved all the flavors.

When you do walk in here, you feel like you're in a fine-dining like area with dim lights yet it also has the feel of a cafe where you can sit and relax with whatever you get. Since one of my friends knew I haven't been here before for desserts, he decided to take me and out other friends here to try their gelato for the first time. I got a scoop of their marionberry swirl and had a taste of my bestie's salted caramel gelato. Both were really good though my marionberry had a lot more taste and wasn't as sweet as the salted caramel. Staff up front were very patient with us when we asked to try several of their flavors at once.

It makes me sad to write this 2-star review because Bottega Italiana has been my favorite gelato…read moreshop in Seattle for the past 15+ years. As you can see from my review years ago, when my hubs and I came back from a trip to Italy, we wanted to find a gelato shop that had the same quality as the shops in Rome. Not all the gelato and sorbetto we had in Italy was good, some flavors tasted artificial, and during our time there, we learned how to tell the good from the meh. When we returned to Seattle, we were happy to find great-Italy-like gelato at the Bottega Italiana in Green Lake. After that shop closed (still sad about that!) we started going to their other shop by Pike Place Market. For years, this place featured delicious, fresh, quality gelato and sorbetto that tasted like the flavors they were labeled with--so strawberry tasted like eating real strawberries and so on. But on a recent visit, I got a small cup with strawberry and raspberry-dragon fruit and the first flavor I got when I tasted it was sugar. As I ate more of it, it started to remind me of Jolly Rancher candies, not totally, but enough to turn me off. They use just enough fruit to make you believe it's the flavor that it's labeled with, but the amount of sugar and other things added makes their fruit flavors as meh as the not-so-good shops we learned to avoid in Rome. Alas, I think my favorite gelato shop in Seattle has fallen prey to profit over quality. Why, Bottega Italiana, why??? It makes me and my hubs very sad. The only reason I am giving two stars instead of one is because the service was friendly and efficient, and my hubs's dairy-based gelato flavors were all right--not great but all right. Over the years, we've tried all the other gelato shops in Seattle and none of them measure up either. I guess it's time we take another trip to Italy.

I ended up getting a small with vanilla and pistachio, and the pistachio (literally called "The Best") lived up to its name.

However, there are standout flavors like waffle cone that I had to get, as well as the more traditional flavors like pistachio. I sampled the pistachio as they claimed it was the best in town but was a little disappointed since the flavor was not too apparent and it's not the true pistachio hue that I usually see for natural pistachio (it was more green). The flavors I ended up getting were the waffle cone and strawberry rhubarb. I liked the quality of the gelato but it was more on the icy texture than smooth. For the price of $6+tax, it is one of the pricier options around for the portion. If this was the best gelato in Seattle, I'd have written the price off as a premium for quality, but I've had a few spots that in my opinion are better in texture and flavor.

You'd think that peanut butter would come through in the Reese's, but no. And the caramel coffee has no coffee flavor at all. I felt bad for the young woman soloing the empty front of house.
