Is pricy but love the chocolate dipped cones and cups. The chocolate is so rich and great paired with a vanilla based gelato. The mago gelato was a bit syrupy but the raspberry was tart and refreshing. Delicious! The hazelnut was also good. read more

I like this place a lot and it's fun to get gelato in the summer (or anytime, really) but wow the prices are very high. My husband went in for a hot chocolate on a cold night last week and it was almost $17. I was like, "Dude, we're going to go buy some Swiss Miss and make it at home!". Now of course Swiss Miss can't hold a candle to the rich chocolately deliciousness that is embodied in the Venchi hot chocolate, but be prepared for sticker shock if you try it. The staff members are all very friendly and they keep the lines moving so five stars to them! read more

Only gelato/ice cream place which closes late in the area on the way to the 57th St train stations so happy about that. Need to order/pay first. I do have favorite flavors already like the Azteco (darkest chocolate), chocoviar and Mango Passionfruit. Wish they were consistent with the portions of gelato though, which depends on the staff member. One week I was satisfied, then the next week it was empty at the bottom of the cup. read more

Went here after going to Italian dinner for something sweet and did not disappoint. They have a number of different gelato's ice creams candies chocolates and the line was around the door. Waited for over 20 minutes. Wanted to go back the next day as well but anytime we went the line was constantly around the corner definitely worth it. Definitely packed and I see why must stop. Must go to especially if you got a sweet tooth. read more

It was a warm Tuesday, and ice cream (or gelato in this case) sounded like a great idea. Though, I would eat ice cream anytime. There wasn't a line, and I was able to order quickly. I got a single scoop of the chocolate hazelnut flavor. It has a specialty name that I do not recall. It was excellent though. Service was pretty quick and friendly. I was then able to find a small table outside to enjoy my gelato. I would come back! read more

Chocolate and ice cream...what more could you ask for? The clean lines of the interior, spacious surroundings, comfortable discretely situated on the sides leads to inviting atmosphere. Ice cream on one side with a number of selections to be on either a cup or waffle cone. Waffle cones can be dipped in chocolate and sprinkles which is a treat. We opted for caramel vanilla and a version of birthday cake. The cream was so rich and smooth. Waffle very crunchy at every bite. Chocolate selections were displayed wall to wall and priced per pound if you wanted to try different selections. Pre-boxed was an option. Pre-packaged another option ranging from $16 dollars to $60. The service is very good with staff offering samples of chocolate or olive oil fudge. The draw to buy and spend more than you thought you would. Great place to get gifts. Definitely not cheap. However, very tasty! So it's worth it. read more

I stopped in Venchi to grab a hot chocolate because I knew I'd be outside waiting for a while! I opted for the hazelnut hot chocolate ($8.50) which came with hazelnuts and whipped cream. Overall I'd really recommend! I love a hot chocolate that tastes strong, less milky and more chocolatey, and this one is the perfect balance, and with a taste of hazelnut which was a great complement. It wasn't too busy when I popped by around 3pm, and the staff members I talked to were all very kind and helpful. The inside was bright, clean, and had a pleasant atmosphere. I'll be stopping by again next time I'm craving a hot chocolate :) read more

This was my first time at Venchi at the Columbus Circle location. I finished up a movie at the AMC and wanted a treat for dessert. There was a long line outside of Venchi so I decided to tag along. The staff comes up to you and takes your order so they can pay in advance. I decided to go for a two scoop gelato in a cup. There are several delicious flavors so make your choice quickly. I chose the tiramisu and hazelnut flavors. The scoops are a decent size. You can order it in a waffle cone with a hazelnut spread for an upcharge. The gelato was good. The tiramisu lacked flavor. I was expecting a strong espresso kick but sadly I didn't get much. The hazelnut was more flavorful than the tiramisu. Overall it was okay. The total came out to around $9 for everything. Very expensive for gelato in the city. However, it is a great treat for a warm summer day. read more

We had a very disappointing experience. My family and I were denied a single sample, which we were told was against policy, even though we saw other customers get samples before ordering. We felt we were treated unfairly and immediately left. If a "no samples" policy truly exists, the staff needs to be trained consistently to enforce it with all customers. It's a shame, as my parents had great experiences here in the past, but the inconsistent customer service was a complete turn-off. We will not be returning, as there are many other gelato shops with better service. read more

The ice cream was rich, creamy and delicious. 3 stars because the serving was small for a large cup and it was $10 for that size. I could get the same quality of taste and flavor somewhere else. read more

Love the gelato here. My favorite is the dark chocolate. Staff was not friendly though which was strange for a chocolate place. read more

Going in I knew it was going to be expensive $7.40 for a small cup. The flavors were extensive from a few leaning savory (parmigiano or olive oil) and all the favs. They also sell chocolate in bars, packs, and individuals. The Iine can get long which maybe was why the cashier was so annoyed at me for taking time to figure out what I wanted. You can get cups or cones and you can have it lined with chocolate. So many choices to try. read more

I am used to seeing Venchi with long lines around the world so I had to stop when I saw nobody there. Perhaps it was because it was a cold January night late on a Monday evening. My gain. The gelato was sensational. read more

Absolutely excellent gelato! It's always busy (a good sign!), but the staff keeps things moving with a smile. The flavors are creative, the cones are made in-house, and the gelato is the real deal. You can tell they know exactly what they're doing -- everything tastes incredible! read more

Meh, we only had the chocolate but of the 4 types we tried .... Very average and stupidly expensive for what it was

I usually come here because it's a convenient location for me, but I don't love it. The place is small, when you're in line you have to be mindful of other people passing by, cutting line and more. Moreover, about a year ago a homeless man stole the tip jar and kind of threw coins everywhere while I was putting a dollar in it. Anyways. Service is as fast as it can get, the gelato is good, the chocolate is nice and stored at a good temperature. Their prices are somewhat high but the quality justifies it. read more

Darn good Gelato. Tastes like creamy goodness that was spun with care, love, and lots of flavor. There isn't really much about the place to talk about, the service was great, the staff there were super friendly, they answered our questions with a smile, and while our kiddo was trying to make up their mind, we saw the wall of chocolate... which honestly is overwhelming and enticing all at the same time. We walked out with two large cones of goodness and it was the prefect after item from walking Central Park. The ambiance is simple, bright, shiny, clean, and for the fact that it wasn't busy, specious. Good stuff, go for it, not cheap, but some things aren't anymore. read more

My only issue with this place is because of its location, the lines/wait times can get quite cumbersome on the nice days! However, the staff handles it incredibly well and keeps it moving the best they can all while keeping a smile on their face and offering exceptional customer service even with a line full of kids demanding immediate gelato in their hands. The gelato here has been consistently great both in flavor and texture and that's important to point out because I've been to other gelato places in the city and they do not compare in regards to staying consistent visit-after-visit. They are known mainly for their hazelnut varieties, but what do you expect from a true Italian gelateria :) My favorite is the cremino and mango in a gourmet cone! It hits the spot every time. I love that they put a complimentary piece of dark or milk chocolate in your ice cream every time too! Speaking of chocolates, those are definitely worth picking up while you're waiting in line. You can grab a bag and make your own mix and buy as few or as many as you like. I have yet to find a flavor that hasn't been good! read more

Venchi is an Italian gelato place that has a location in Manhattan. This location is usually busy with tourists. Their gelato is good but is a bit pricey. You pay for a certain number of scoops and cones. Then you give the receipt to the next worker who scoops the exact flavors you want. You can get a free chocolate either dark or milk added on top. Service is quick but there is almost always a line. The gelato shop looks very cute and photogenic. They also sell chocolates and other treats. read more

No matter what Venchi you visit, you'll always receive quality products, quick service, and never an empty eatery. This Venchi is in one of the best locations. It's perfectly located in the heavy pedestrian traffic of Central Park South and always has long lines. The gelateria is not large, but it is packed with amazing gelato, outdoor seating, assortment of chocolates, and other sweets. I really enjoyed how they sent a staff member outside, with a tray of some of their products, for people on line to try. The actual gelato is creamy, they give hearty portions, and I saw every customer smiling with satisfaction. You will definitely enjoy Venchi and enjoy your inevitable smiles. read more

I was happy to have visited the midtown Vinci location. I had taken my husband and my mother-in-law here, they were overwhelmed by the amount of chocolate options to try. We did get a couple of samples, but ultimately decided on a couple small pieces instead of buying a really big box. They had excellent espresso, which we all enjoyed. The line wasn't too long, but you should definitely expect to spend 20 to 30 minutes in here even to purchase one item. read more

Great customer service! And lots of flavors. I recommend getting the double scoop cone and if you're like me who can't decide wether I want "sweet or tart" put the sweet at the bottom and the tart flavor on top. Trust me. I was missing the sweet flavor I added a list of the menu so you don't have to choose when you're on line. :) read more

Had this in Italy (Florence I think) and it was amazing. Tried it here and it was also just as delicious! I dropped my gelato on the ground.

Wow! The beautiful store front caught my eye the first night in NYC. We finally went on our 3rd day after pizza. Great choice! The gelato is so good. I had the tiramisu because it is my favorite dessert. It did not disappoint. So good in a waffle cone. My son had mango and strawberry and was in heaven. My husband had a dark chocolate scoop which was incredible. My son and I ate ours while looking at all the amazing chocolates. There was even a staff member giving samples. I can wait to go back and get chocolates before we leave!! read more

Super tasty gelato! I ordered a baby sized cone with tiramisu gelato. It was amazing and packed with chocolatey, espresso flavor. The gelato came topped with a piece of chocolate & was served in a crispy sugar cone. There was quite a long line when I visited, but the line moved pretty quickly & efficiently. The staff was attentive and friendly. The only issue with the atmosphere was a lack of space for the crowd! We did find a table outside, but it was a table for 2 and we had 3 in my party so I stood at the table. The shop itself was very cute with a fun ice cream cone wall in their windows, walls of nice chocolates & candies for sale, and pretty easy-to-read digital signs. Worth a visit! read more

This place has gelato like I've never had before! The workers there were super nice and welcoming. Samples were passed all around and made sure that we had the best experience possible. I had two flavors: Piedmont Hazelnut- Not super nutty to the point were it was overwhelming, which I thoroughly enjoyed, smooth, yet creamy. The hazelnut was extremely aromatic with each spoonful as well. Tuscan Cream- This was absolutely delicious. Smooth, and custardy. I really enjoyed the fragrance of the gelato for this one as well. It had a very comforting aroma to it. It was as if I wanted to be put to bed by the gelato. It was THAT good. read more

the best hot cocoa ive ever had. it literally tasted like melted chocolate; it was perfectly hot, rich, and the perfect bit sweet. the cream on top tasted fresh, light, and was perfect to cut through the rich hot cocoa. ive known venchi as a popular chocolate and ice cream spot, but i had never heard of their hot cocoa beforehand. the cups are on the smaller side but i didnt mind at all because it was so rich that i was only able to drink half and brought the remainder home. inside of the shop is stunning- theres beautiful chocolate displays and its very cute to browse around. the staff was very kind and helpful. theres a handful of seats by the entrance. i will definitely try more of the desserts from here! read more

Hard to order here because the shop is more interested in turning and burning the customer then providing quality customer service, in particular the 3 female employees that were helping us today. Allan made the experience a little easier to tolerate by providing the "manager rescue" because I was ready to walk out of this place especially since the young ladies were laughing at us when we ordered the wrong way and we decided to change (mind you this was our first time, and the girl was rushing us at the register); secondly the girl Karol got an attitude with my daughter when she was pointing to the flavor she wanted and Karol couldn't see what she was pointing to and she told her hurry I have a line. The actions of these ladies Left a really bad taste in our mouth. Aside for the service the gelato was tasteful. read more

Food Try as many flavors as you can. Pricey for average or slightly below average gelato. It's too sweet and it unique enough flavors Service If you survive the long line, the service is pleasant because you have a lot of staff that speak a second language and they pronounce flavors as they are meant too but it's a messy situation. You gotta repeat your order 3 times. To the first person you are paying and getting a ticket from. To the person pinning your ticket. And then to your actual gelato scooper Ambiance The locations looks luxurious with mirrored walls and fun with ice cream cone plastic decor but the experience is a hot mess especially at smaller locations read more
