    Dubai strawberries
    Liz B.

    Super yummy loved them, great customer service. My order was done at the moment to kept its fresh exquisite taste

    Cafe arabia - 8/10 - Nice coffee flavor but tasted more sugary than coffee like Ferrero rocher - 9/10 - So good and chocolatey, wish it had some chunks of ferrero rocher tho Mango - 8/10 - More tangy than sweet like a sorbet, refreshing tho Pistachio - 9.5/10 - Tasted just like pistachios, really creamy and tasty The gelatist is such a cute gelato spot with nice vibes. Their gelatos were flavorful but some could be more rich in flavor in my opinion. I think they were more on the sweeter side. They do make their gelatos fresh daily so i would recommend checking them out!

    Well lit, super clean and friendly place. The amount of unique gelato flavors is amazing. The people behind the counter were awesome and knowledgeable. I recommend the ferrero roche, strawberry, salted caramel, marscapone with Nutella and Nutella flavors. The gelato is so rich and decadent. You really should sample to make sure you like the flavors. This place also has crepes, croissants, various coffee drinks, cookies and desserts. Would come here again!

    The best sweet pleasure that you don't mind getting a few calories for. Service was excellent, patient and kind. 10 out of 10.

    I love gelato, and on our last night in Texas, our friend Lizzie invited us to this cute little place. She gave us a choice between going to have yogurt ice cream or to go have gelato, Lisa and I chose gelato. I was in heaven because I love to have gelato or ice cream whenever I can. This location was filled with different flavors and very clean and welcoming. The young lady who took care of us was super sweet. She gave us samples of a couple of flavors we weren't familiar with. I finally opted to have a scoop of pistachio and chocolate. My friends had chocolate. It was such a fun place to visit and view all the delicious deserts and flavourful gelatos. A perfect end to our wonderful time in Houston visiting our very dear friend. We would definitely make this our traditional goodbye place on our next visit to Texas.

    We really enjoyed the ice cream at this Gelateria. At first I was disappointed they didn't have my favorite flavors (Mint Chocolate Chip and Dulce de leche). But the good part is that it forced me to try new flavors. It is a true Gelateria (Italian Ice cream) with mostly American flavors and a few Italian flavors. I ended up getting the Dark Chocolate and Reeses peanut butter cup. The place is very new and nicely decorated and very clean. Everyone in there was very friendly. My kids kept asking to try different flavors and they thankfully didn't get annoyed with us. They kept a smile on their faces the entire time. If you live in the area, this is a great place to get great tasting and creamy ice cream.

    Watermelon tasted just like fresh watermelon! Tiramisu was excellent!!!

    OMG!! I understand the hype. This place is absolutely delicious and very clean. The ice cream here was so good, and it is definitely in my top 5 of the best I've ever tasted. The brownie was freshly baked and warm as well. All around, this is my new favorite spot.

    Since this place is new. Thought we give it a try , we really like their ice cream and other desserts. The macaroons is a must try. They have different types of coffees as well, and blended drinks. It's a must try too.

    Ferrero Rochero, white chocolate with raspberry and coconut with hazelnut (?) - omg alll of them were heavenly!!!!
    Carolyn H.

    Wow!!! So happy my husband & I decided to stop here for dessert! We loved every flavor we tried. The gelato is so fresh and flavorful. We loved the little waffle on top too. t's such a cute and clean place inside. The lady serving us was really kind and helpful too. We can't wait to come back for more!!!

Traffic wasn't too bad along Mason and the location was easy to find using GPS. The coffee shop is part of a shopping strip that includes other popular businesses like Aji Ramen and Hoodadak. The ambiance and decor are quite lovely! The cafe is much larger inside than I expected, and it was super clean with good, reliable WiFi. We just stopped by for a few minutes and were recommended the honey nut latte as one of their more popular drinks. We got it hot. It was perfect! Not too hot, definitely not cold, great flavor, strong coffee flavor, and not too sweet. There's also a wall of fancy teas that's definitely worth checking out. (See my photo.) Service was also good! Nice, kind employee and the drink came out quickly. Luckily there wasn't a line when I arrived and only 2 other people in the cafe chatting at the time. If you find yourself on S Mason in Katy and wanting coffee or tea, check out this place!

They have plenty of seating, the AC works, friendly staff, strong Wi-Fi, and great drinks. One of my current favorite drinks is on their seasonal menu, iced strawberry Matcha latte with coconut milk. I'm not ashamed to say that I go every weekend to get my fix lol the first time I had it was probably the best thus far. I'm not sure what the barista did exactly but that was the best Matcha latte I've had. They have some other really fun tasty lattes on their seasonal menu like the lavender chai. There's also a latte made with taro and when that has lavender and rose in it I believe. I'm not a big coffee person so I really appreciate when coffee shops do teas they're just do. This location has restored my faith in Matcha! Until I figure out how to make perfect iced Matcha at home, this is where I'll be every week.

This…read morelocation has tons of parking space as it is located in a strip center with a few retailers alongside. The space inside is moderately sized and has a handful of seats outside on its patio as well. Typically I've seen this location with its garage-like door closed so guests can walk in and have a seat while enjoying these icy treats on especially hot days, and with AC on full blast. As of lately, I've been walking into the shop with open doors and the entire seating area inside and outside are just blended. It makes it hard to sit down and enjoy it during those super hot and hunid days. As for the Italian ice itself, I find that there are many great flavors but I lean towards the fruity ones and the vanilla soft serve ice cream. The jelati are deliciously layered with ice and ice cream, making it a smooth creamy yet icy cold treat. Service has been alright at this Jeremiah's but nothing out of the ordinary. Try sizes from tadpole (the smallest) to large take home containers. Here I come again, enjoying my mango and vanilla jelati or caffe latte jelati with yummy toppings!
