    Dario is a cool guy
    Michelle F.

    Venchi was a fun place to get some great quality gelato. Dario let me sample a couple gelatos before I chose my flavors. I tasted the Straticiella which is what I almost always order. Venchi's was okay. I loved the samples of chocolate and hazelnut and dark chocolate. I am not even much of a chocolate fan but these were awesome. I ordered 4 scoops of gelato in a waffle cone. This was only 5 Euros. The scoops were not huge, but still well worth it. I ended up ordering those two scoops of chocolate plus 2 scoops of Straticiella. I am annoyed with myself for doing that since I did not love that Straticiella but habits are hard to break!!! This is a very clean gelateria and I believe they sell candy too although I was super focused on the gelato. Lol

    Venchi is such a lovely gelato spot that has so many divine flavors of gelato and sorbet for you to enjoy. It also comes with many cones. You won't miss it because it is a very lighted and bright place. In this location, there is typically a line as this on is close to the Trevi fountain. I suggest going to this one because there is another one nearby where there are trainees and they don't serve as well. Grab any flavor as they are all delicious and definitely grab a date and take a walk to the fountain or Pantheon!!

    Walked in here for a quick little gelato. I had the hazelnut and also the milk chocolate with chopped hazelnuts on top. The boyfriend got caramel. We both added cream to the top. I like that this place will let you try a couple flavors, that's always nice. Pretty descent selection, left satisfied.

    Best gelato in Rome!!! That is all I need to say! I highly recommend that you try this gelato shop. They have a range of cones and cups and what seems like a million choices of flavor. I recommend stracciella for those who like milk, chocolate or all things deliciously flavored! They also have great sorbet choices!

    The best gelato in all of Italy! The ladies working the counter could have been a little friendlier, though. The gelato was super creamy, didn't melt very fast but not overly sweet. I can't quite remember the exact flavors we both got, but we agreed both flavors were amazing and decadent. Fair prices for the quality and size here. They have a huge assortment of gelatos and chocolates. And their shop is well lit, clean and adorable. I did end up buying some chocolates while in Florence at one of their locations over there for some friends. They are pricey chocolates but heard they're worth it.

    Taste: wonderful Line: long but worth it Staff: unsure if anyone smiled. Overall: would definitely go again but if I only had one place to get gelato ever, I'd pick something that wasn't like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Being from Orlando, it isn't a new concept for us. Always prefer a small family-run place with excellent reviews/service. This was very fun and yummy, however. The "chocolate wall" was terribly fun. The first member of staff we encountered was irritated that we didn't know to tell him 1, 2, or 3 scoops and cup/cone. No one directed us what to do until the moment you get up there with the small sign. Perhaps we missed something that did but couldn't tell. You tell him that, pay, he gives you a receipt which you then shuffle down to the gelato area and hand to the person who will put your order together. If you ordered a cone, be prepared to point to her which one you want and she will prepare it fresh (loved that). So yummy, yet portions are not large at all which was disappointing after that long wait. Fun to go to while in Rome, regardless.

    Fantastic gelato! Lots of chocolate/vanilla/caramel type flavors. A few sorbets available! LOVE that they do the chocolate and nuts/more chocolate dusting on the cone in front of you with a chocolate fountain. So fresh!! Will be going back while we're in Rome!

Expecting it to be there one year, I walked over to Piazza Navona and Gelateria Navona had evidently closed. I would then get gelato here and there. I then learned that Giolitti is a long standing gelateria and it's also in the historic center. I filed the name away in my head. Then, one day, I happened to walk right in front of it without even looking for it, so I went in. Giolitti is popular and it can be crowded. I'm going to say that I waited about 10 to 15 minutes. You pay at a counter first, deciding on what you want and how much of it, such as scoops and whether it will be in a cup or a cone. Once up at the counter, they don't rush you, which surprised me. I don't take that much time since I don't experiment much, but I still appreciate the courtesy. The price is roughly what everyone else in the historic center is charging. I always opt for the gelato it in a cup so you can "control" the dripping. The gelato - a mix of dark chocolate and two citrus flavors - was "molto buono." That said, just because it's so popular, I'm not going to downgrade Giolitti for it and complain about the crowds. You downgrade gourmet donut places in the U.S. where their fame has gone to their heads. There is also a spacious salon with nicer decor in which you can eat inside. At this point, Giolitti is really the only gelateria in Rome whose name I remember. I would gladly go back and I recommend it.

A decent gelato place has fresh, standard flavors like chocolate, pistachio, or stracciatella. A good gelato place has interesting flavors like lavender, basil, or pear.

My favorite Fatamorgana flavors at the moment are: * Rose petals, violet flowers, and walnuts * Lavender flowers and wood strawberries * Carrot cake * Chestnut and myrtle ...I don't even know what myrtle is, but I know I like it.

Our guide said this is his favorite gelato spot, owing to the creativity of flavors and rotating menu offerings. We liked it so much we went back once on our own. They were busy both times, with a line out the door, but the people working were friendly and patient (which was especially noticeable on our first visit, when a group of 10 tourists wandered in after a few hours drinking, eating and drinking our way through the town.) The did have some interesting flavor combos lined up for us to try, but I went with the flavors I craved. Everything was tasty and creamy, and the serving sizes were generous. They offered whipped cream on top of each portion as well, which we passed on, the gelato was yummy and creamy enough without the added cream. The shop is tiny (explains the line) but clean, and they do a good job of labeling each of the vats of gelato they have on display. Definitely a winner, and seemed to be quite popular with locals.

Tucked along the lively streets of Trastevere, this little spot delivers gelato with genuine craftsmanship and flavors that taste as authentic as the city around you. The first thing you notice is the freshness. Each flavor looks vibrant--not overly piled or artificially glossy--and you can tell everything is made with real ingredients. One spoonful confirms it: the gelato is creamy, smooth, and beautifully balanced. The fruit flavors burst with natural sweetness, especially the mango and strawberry, while the classics like pistachio, hazelnut, and chocolate showcase that rich, deep, true-to-ingredient taste that only well-made gelato can achieve. Their specialty flavors are equally impressive--unique without feeling gimmicky--and everything is served at the perfect temperature so the texture stays silky, not icy. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and the cones have that fresh baked aroma that adds an extra layer of enjoyment. The staff is warm and welcoming, happy to offer suggestions, and patient even when you're debating between ten flavors that all look incredible. The atmosphere reflects Trastevere itself--relaxed, friendly, and full of character. Whether you're ending a meal, cooling off on a sunny Roman afternoon, or simply exploring one of the city's most spirited neighborhoods, GELATERIA alla SCALA is a sweet stop worth seeking out. A delicious reminder that some of Rome's best moments come in a cup--or a cone.
