Description

The shop's lineage traces back to Michele Gentile, a descendant of pastry chefs who began making sweets in 1880. Beyond gelato, the counter serves artisan baked goods. The gelato itself is notable for a dense, decadent texture that departs from standard ice cream, featuring profiles like almond, hazelnut, and a mix of rum, chocolate chips, and sponge cake. While patrons note the menu is on the pricier side, the shop maintains a relaxed vibe where you can sample flavors before committing.
