This was our favorite gelato
This was the best gelato we had in Rome. It came by way of a recommendation from a friend who spent a few trips in the city. Why?
1) amazing selection of flavors. Not just what you'd expect. We were there for Halloween and had pumpkin chocolate ice cream. They also had ricotta cheese and fig!
2) the gelato was smooth and authentic
3) the cone tasted great. It was light and delicious. Make sure u try it instead of the cup
4) they're very organized. Take a number at the door. They respect the deli counter number system. As an American traveler I'm annoyed by Europeans cutting in front of you because you're a foreigner. They really respect the queue.

Probably the best gelato we had throughout Italy during our two week trip. This little unassuming ice cream shop is nestled on a corner of one of the most charming streets in Rome. The ingredients are fresh and organic and the flavors denoted as dairy free, gluten free etc. They have an extraordinary selection of flavors that will not disappoint.
When entering, you grab an old fashioned ticket like the kind you find in a deli way back when. The gentleman behind the counter was incredibly gracious. I had ricotta, almond and fig gelato which was unusual and simply delicious. The dark chocolate was great as it was made with red wine and was dairy free.
You will not be disappointed. Worth the venture out of the more touristy areas and amidst a street of local shops and artisans. Yum!!! -

TAKE A GODDAMN NUMBER AND WAIT!! Once they call your number you can order.
Incredible gelato place. This place was a 30 second walk from our hotel so we stopped by nonstop, towards the end of our trip they recognized us. Should have just opened an account. A small cup or cone is 3 euros and can hold two flavors. Please stop sampling so much and order because the line is long. Below is my quick summary of flavors we tried and remember.
Flavors we tried,
Pineapple Mint - must try, true pineapple flavor but made lighter with the mint
Garden Sage and Raspberry - good, unique. Bits of raspberry stuck in and sage flavor and scent is incorporated into cream of the ice cream.
Lavender and white peach - good, loved the bits of peach.
Pistachio - very good, nutty & creamy.
Café (coffee) - must try, had this multiple times. Also think it has a bit of caffeine, had this one night, couldn't sleep.
Stracciatella/witih cacao nibs - must try, this was two different flavors, one with chocolate chip and the other with cacao nibs. I preferred cacao nibs.
Milk Chocolate - simple, straight forward, good.
Mint Chocolate - must try and my fave. Mint was strong and chocolate was not only chocolate but cacao nibs which gave a much more satisfactory crunch.
Peach - Very peachy had real chunks of peach, yummy.
Melon - True to flavor, I'm not a fan of melon flavors but husband chowed down
Lemon Granita - soo refreshing and good. Slightly tang, slight sweet.
Lemon Ginger Granita - Just like above but with a subtly added heat of ginger. Felt detoxifying lol.
Overall, would highly recommend the freshness and quality of ingredients really shines through in each flavor and you can also see them make the gelato through the window from the street. -

We'd heard of this gelateria but ended up accidentally stumbling upon it while shopping on Via Dei Coronari during our vacation in Rome. The store front is super cute, and you can even see the gelato being made through one of the windows - that's how you know it's the real deal! There were so many incredible flavors, and it was difficult to choose! I finally settled on a cone with two scoops - one of strawberry and one of lemon. It was super tart, but so tasty! You could even still see the seeds in the strawberry flavor!

Wow. This is the best gelateria in Rome!
The milk chocolate, strawberry sorbet, hazelnut, mint chocolate chip, pistachio, and coconut were delicious. We tried a few other gelato place and this is definitely the best!
