The staff was very friendly and welcoming, and they even offer small samples so you can try different gelato flavors before deciding. My son couldn't choose between the chocolate and vanilla chocolate chip gelato, so the kind employee offered to combine both flavors into one cup for him. Such a sweet gesture and excellent customer service. I tried a few bites myself, and the gelato was rich, creamy, and amazingly delicious. They have a small seating area as well. They also have a beautiful selection of fine Italian chocolates available both in-store and online. You can purchase elegant gift boxes or create your own custom bag of chocolates. I also noticed they offer a free rewards club, which is a nice bonus. Next time I definitely want to go back to try their crepes and coffee. A wonderful spot for anyone with a sweet tooth!

Now they even have Dubai Pistachio chocolate flavor !!! This time we had the Dubai Pistachio chocolate and Blueberry Creme Brûlée !!! One scoop each - total came out $12.34. And the scoops are not that big !!!!! Though we do come here occasionally, I am all for the soft serve at Grand Ice Cream .... All because I am a huge fan of soft serves than gelatos.

However, what keeps me coming back is their high quality dairy-free gelatos. I am lactose-intolerant, so I am always looking for options that taste delicious and have the right texture. The coconut vegan gelato is my favorite! For those who can tolerate dairy, there are a wide variety of delicious-looking flavors.

Went there on a beautiful day, a perfect day for ice cream. Going in here is a huge hike for us being that we live 40 miles away. It's always a highlight to go, and we always order large cups when we go. Keep in mind this place is not a bargain, you generally get what you pay for and this place has always been worth it except for this trip. And with all my excitement, I neglected to see how much gelato was left for one of the flavors I ordered, and it was the bottom of the barrel-instead of the young gentleman talking me out of the flavor, he gingerly scraped up with all his might whatever was left in the bottom, then proceeded to ask me if I wanted a flavor that was similar to it... Shame on me I said no, and he proceeded to give me the other flavor I had asked for which is a chocolate brownie. As he scooped, I said you know what give me some of the cappuccino please-he huffed and puffed and arrogantly told me he could no longer do it... Why? You've only done a couple scoops of chocolate what's the big deal. Asking him a question it was like I was asking him a life ending favor. He then huffed as he took my husband's order. As we both ate our ice creams we were very mystified that it was lacking the flavors that it once had. True, we both had tried new flavors that we never had before, but it didn't have the same texture and it was overly sweet. Secondly, my husband got their waffle cone. Now let's talk about how the boy neglectfully scooped that waffle cone... He didn't put any ice cream in the cone only slapped a ball on top - that was it. The ice creams came out to $16 and honestly the waffle cone was flavorless! My husband wound up throwing it away as it probably was one of the worst waffle clones he's ever had. Maybe we need a break but we definitely need a break from that young gentleman who took our order... He needs a little polish refresher course on how to be a little more cordial and Little accommodating. Thank God for the tip cup! As for the parking, it's hell, absolutely satanic but that is not reflective of the rating. You are at the mercy of street parking and not easy to find.

Any problems of this nature should be addressed in real time. 2) The shop is certified green, so metal spoons (washed everyday just like in a regular restaurant) are used. 3) There is no liberal signage, only ones that promote environmental awareness. 4) Overpriced? Everything is fresh, locally sourced, and priced accordingly. You get what you pay for! 5) Portions are quite adequate! If you want GREAT ice cream, go to The Blue Pig!
