The product quality is fine, but the customer experience is absurdly stingy. They enforce a strict rule of one tiny sample per person. In a shop with multiple flavors, they essentially expect you to blind-buy full-priced items on pure faith after testing a single option. It feels less like an invitation to explore their menu and more like they don't trust their own customers. Good quality doesn't make up for nickel-and-diming over a half-spoon of product. I’d rather spend my money at a place that actually wants you to find something you enjoy before forcing you to commit. Won't be back.

Yummy gelato, they had a great selection of flavors. Vanilla was great, blueberry sorbet was underwhelming but still good. Staff was helpful. Happy that sold drinks as well. They have indoor and outdoor seating which is nice. Clean cafe.

A line pretty much all the time but it moves quickly. Not much seating space inside but they have a few chairs outside for those that want to hang out. Downside is that they don’t allow more than one β€œtasting” per person and ask that you save the taster spoon for your actual purchase (never heard that before but hey does reduce plastic waste :-) )

Pistachio is the only flavor I mess with hereβ€”just trust me on that. But fair warning: if you go late, it’s a gamble. Feels like if they don’t feel like grabbing it from the back, suddenly it’s β€œsold out.” And honestly… I don’t buy it πŸ˜‚ thats the only reason for the low review.... drive all the way there, find parking only to be turned away... not cool If it’s clearly the most popular flavor, maybe stock up a little more? Because when they do have it, it hits every time.

This is small gelato shop in downtown Berkeley. We stopped here to get gelato. They have decent variety of flavors. I got a small cup with a mix of coffee and roasted almond with fig flavored ice creams. They were delicious. They also have vegan options as well. They have one table outside to sit and taste the ice cream.
