So delicious. The pistachio was nutty, the strawberry tasted like pure strawberries, the chocolate was heaven, the salted caramel was decadent. Real gelato at a great price.

Ordered three scoops (Crema Veneziana, Stracciatella, Alla Crema) with a large mango and lemon slushy. The ice cream was excellent—rich and full of flavor one of the best I have had. The mango slushy, however, wasn’t quite up to taste for me, though my wife enjoyed it.

Great little shop located on the water front. The slushes are refreshing and well worth a visit or THREE! Prices are extremely reasonable too; €2 for a small is a great value these days!

GREAT gelato and outstanding prices. We had gelato all over Italy from Rome, to Florence, Cinque Terre and Venice. This little shop was right up there with the best of them. Smooth creamy gelato, not ice crystals! Great service and always a small line up of people! Literally the best we found in all of Venice! We tried several gelato places near San Marco and the Rialto bridge but tossed their gelato in the garbage. It was not surprising to see people walking here from all the more touristy areas to get truly great gelato! Well done! I highly recommend the pistachio and coconut!
