    Gelato

    Even it has the appearance of being a little touristy, out of all of the gelato places we tried throughout Rome this one was by far our favorite. We even came back again on our last night of being in Rome.

    Medium cup of gelato with pistachio, hazelnut, Dubai chocolate covering, and chocolate drizzle

    By far the BEST gelato store in Rome. We went to a few others while traveling the city but none compared to the quality and experience at Sweet Life. The owner and employees are not focused on just serving whatever you order. They take the time to ensure you are able to try what you want and help curate your order to maximize the taste. The best word I can use to describe the quality of service is passionate. They truly seemed to care about making customers happy with their orders. If you want a unique experience with high quality gelato and excellent service then do yourself a favor and go to Sweet Life.

    Limone!

    Absolutely delicious! I was so sad it was closed the next day when we went back. 100% recommend coming here for gelato! Best we had in Rome.

    Amarena (black cherry) and mandorla (almond) gelato

    This is delicious gelato! So many amazing flavors. My favorite combo is the amarena (black cherry) and mandorla (almond). It comes with a cookie and they also offer chocolate (milk or dark) and panna (whipped cream).Sweet Life is in a great central location, and the owners are very warm and welcoming.

    Many, many options

    Very large variety of flavors, and they let you sample them to make sure you'll be happy with your selections. The service was absolutely fantastic. We've been going to a different gelato shop until now. This is the ONE to go to!

    Friendly staff!

    Variety of flavors AND sweets to conquer those cravings! Great find and staff is excellent and very friendly.

    Very tasty! We were walking along and passed this unassuming Gelateria in Rome, not far from Saint Peter's. The server was pleasant and spoke English, if you needed it. The place was cramped, but clean. There were many choices. I had my favorite, Amarena. It was delicious!

    Amazingly delicious Gelato. They give you a taste to get your final approval.

    Phenomenal Gelato. Small place with extremely limited seating. Very much worth the trip. Note: They don't take American Express.

    Awesome place. Open til 11pm (2300) Great customer service Free WiFi (just ask) Great prices Plenty of dairy free options Gelato is made fresh daily without anything artificial included. Best gelato place in Italy!

    Stopped here for my first gelato in Italy! The owner was friendly and you could easily tell he was passionate about creating gelato with only the best possible ingredients. Everything looked AMAZING so it was hard to choose, but I went with extra dark chocolate and Nutella flavored gelato. Both flavors were absolutely wonderful. I will Be back!

    Just some of the flavors

    Absolutely the best gelato I have ever had! The servings were generous and well priced and the flavors were spectacularly delicious (I tried mint chip, dark chocolate, dulce de leche, milk chocolate, lemon and coffee). If you visit Rome, do yourself a favor and buy gelato from The Sweet Life, you will not regret it (until you leave and go through gelato withdrawal!).

    Mint and Lindt chocolate with white chocolate drizzle

    This gelato is the best you'll ever find. No line, no wait, but the taste is just something to dream about. It's so creamy and delicious. All of the flavors are not brightly colored which means it has no chemicals. I don't think that there is any other place in Rome or near Rome that is as good as here. The prices are reasonable and nothing to complain about. The service is amazing and the woman that works there is very kind and patient. They are considerate, offer you a drizzle of chocolate, offer a wafer, and give you a large amount of ice cream in a small cone. I really don't think that there was any other place with gelato as perfect as this one. I got the mint and Lindt chocolate one. The ambiance is also very calming and amazing.

    There are soo many great places to go for gelato in Rome Italy but Sweet Life is by far the best! From delicious gelato to heavenly pastries to unmatched customer service, this place was worth a visit. A friend and I were in town visiting and in need of charging our phones. We stumbled upon this Gelateria hoping they'd have an outlet to plug our phones in, and they did. The owner was so gracious, and friendly. He insisted we stay and charge our phones and he even gave us the WiFi password without us asking. Lol. We decided to try the gelato, a slice of chocolate cake, and a cannoli... I wish my stomach had been bigger. Everything was sooo good! It was fresh, rich in flavor, and the tasty. The shop was also very clean and cute. Definitely a place I'd go back to during my next visit to Rome.

    Best gelato we've had in Rome. Absolutely excellent! There's also macaroons, chocolates and bakery items. Highly recommend!

    We had a 12:30 lunch reservation at Roscioli and arrived hungry a little before 12:15, hoping to be…read moreseated early. We were surprised to learn that the restaurant did not actually open until 12:30, and found ourselves with fifteen minutes to kill. Luckily, Roscioli Caffè Pasticceria was right next door. We got seated immediately, a relief given both our timeframe and our slight fatigue after a long walk from Vatican City. We got a small table on the cute little patio, and service was prompt and friendly. We told our waiter about our lunch reservation, and he made sure we were able to leave on schedule. We ordered cappuccinos, which were €3 apiece and delicious, thick with foam. I don't drink coffee at home, but after this one, I enjoyed cappuccinos every day in Italy. So cheap and tasty. The café also offers a robust food menu, and seems like a great place to get a Roscioli meal if you can't land a reservation at the popular (and amazing) salumeria. I'd recommend Roscioli Caffè Pasticceria whether or not you're also eating at the restaurant.

    I could not wait to visit this place after Giada De Laurentiis recommended it. Coming around the…read morecobblestone corner, I was met with all sorts of delicious smells. I am a huge pesto fan, so I grabbed several jars of their signature paste. Our group of three ended up trying everything from a red-white sauce; eggplant to prosciutto. The slices being ultra-thin crust just means you can eat more, so it's a win win for all! Really wish I would have tried their other food items though, but it was more of a late night snack.
