Saturday at noon is an ideal time to visit. There are no long lines, and the gelato is incredibly rich and flavorful. They offer a wide variety of flavors to choose from. I particularly enjoyed their blueberry gelato. It wasn't too sweet or rich, just the right amount of flavor. read more

BDL is a really sharp looking café with upmarket offerings eg Affogatos which are excellent. The location is great just a block east of the 3rd st Promenade. I really enjoy the coffee and ice cream sorbet. I subtract one star due to the awkward small seating area(there are a few outdoor tables though), high prices=below avg. value and sometimes the service is not on point but never bad. Recommended. read more

My friends and I stopped by this place last night to get some gelato ice cream since we were in the area. This place also close late so it worked out for us. When we walked inside, they had a line but it wasn't too bad. I got the creama and biscotti which is the cookie and cream in a pint cup. My friend who was the birthday boy got the Giandujotto which is the hazelnut and chocolate. My other two friends for the tiramisu and strawberry cheesecake. We all chose the cup instead of a cone because we saw how fast the gelato melt. One of my friend also got a black coffee to complete our order. We sat inside of the place and enjoyed our ice cream. The gelato flavors we chose were amazing and the customer service was excellent. I used the bathroom here as well, you need a code for the door. read more

Stumbled on this gem on the 4th of July late in the evening. The overall esthetics are clean and simple. But the desserts are anything but. The staff were friendly, helpful and provided exceptional customer service. We tried several of their gelatos and a giant cookie and both were spot on. If you have a sweet tooth or many sweet teeth then this is for you. Parking is a bit challenging and worse so for holiday windows or events. The interior seating is adequate and extremely clean. If I am in the area again I would definitely go out of my way to stop in again. read more

The ice cream was absolutely incredible! The pistachio crunch was so delicious and full of flavor. Their sorbets are also really good, especially if you love something refreshing. I did order a large Americano, but the coffee was quite small. Maybe they simply don't offer larger coffee sizes. Service was good read more

Stumbled upon this place while walking around the 3rd Street Promenade, and I'm so glad we did! We were able to sample a few flavors, and my husband and I ended up choosing the strawberry shortcake and cookies & cream custard. Both were absolutely delicious, with a super smooth and creamy texture. Definitely a sweet treat worth stopping for! Staff was welcoming and friendly as well! read more

Enjoyed their gelato selection and got Crema Torino and Chocolate Pistachio Crunch this time. Pistachio gelato is usually hit or miss for me, but I really liked the one they had. They're located just a few steps north of 3rd street promenade, so it's a nice cozy place if you want to escape the crowd. I also love how they're open late. It's really popular and can still get a good amount of customers at night, but there's plenty of seating. read more

The atmosphere here is sweet, literally lol. The decor is elevated, not your typical gelato spot. We were spending a few hours in Santa Monica and wanted something sweet. As serendipity would have it, I saw Bacio di Latte in the distance and knew it was going to be our choice! I saw it come on my timeline a few times but didn't know when I would get to the West side. Our lucky day!! Service was great and KUDOS to the staff for asking us if there were any allergies....which there were...peanuts‼‼‼ So THANK YOU!! Our choices we selected were soo decadent and smooth. Couldn't ask for better. Now I have learned that there is a location in Encino. Perfect read more

This is a company that has stores all around the greater Los Angeles area. There are lots of flavors to choose from. They are in long trays and they scoop it out for you. I had half chocolate and half coffee flavor. It was totally delicious and I ate every bite. The one problem is that it starts melting and dripping, even while it's in the cup, so be aware and put a napkin around it. The flavor was wonderful. That consistency was just right and smooth. It was really a treat. read more

This was our first time at a Bacio di Latte and the gentleman was so kind and patient. We tried the flavors we wanted but he also gave us some combos to try. We enjoyed our gelato. I did get a brownie cookie that I wasn't too stoked about but I want to come back to try and affogato. read more

OMG. If I could have an affogato everyday, I absolutely would and I would have it from Bacio di Latte. We shared a pistachio and salted caramel affogato. Both flavors provide a bit of saltiness that pairs so well with the sweet ice cream and the bitter espresso. By far my favorite sweet treat of the year. read more

First time at Bacio di Latte. The place was very cute with a decent amount of seating inside and a little outside. A lot of foot traffic and at times the line got pretty long. I got a Crema Torino Affogato. I liked it. The gelato was sooo good, it was way better than the espresso, which was strongly bitter, but... Of course it's a gelato shop. I can't say much about the service because I sat and held a table while my friends went in line and ordered for me, but the table was a little dirty and after telling staff at the counter, one of them came right away and cleaned the table. Overall I liked it. Everyone. In my party was happy with their gelato orders. I would come back for sure. read more

Amazing service ! Lovely, clean, atmosphere. A friend and I went to All'Antico Vinaio's Grand opening, then we went across to finish the night at Bacio Di Latte ! Amazing service, we tried all the flavors. We were served by: Jared, Lexi, and Yvonne. Wonderful and attentive staff. They made our night after the festivities. All the flavors were beyond phenomenal. The service we received was patient and attentive. They gave great recommendations. We got four flavors: tiramisu, cherry yogurt, caffe, and salted pretzel. The flavors taste natural and pure altogether. We got feedback on what many customers say about the flavors. We received personalized assistance based on what flavor profiles we fancy. Baccio di Latte is the tried and trusted premier gelati choice in LA. Cheers ! read more

Bacio di Latte is consistently great! While they are a bit pricey, the gelato is worth it. The staff is incredibly friendly, welcoming you in, thanking you, and saying goodbye. They offer samples, which I appreciated, though I was a little shy and only tried two. I ended up choosing three flavors I knew I would enjoy. Best sellers are clearly marked with yellow signs. I opted for the Regular Cup ($8.95), which allows for three flavors. I chose Pistacchio (Pistachio) - an all-time bestseller, Stracciatella (Chocolate Chip), and Raspberry Sorbet (vegan, made with local raspberries!). Brie was very helpful and checked in to make sure I liked my choices. Great gelato and service! read more

I'd been to Bacio in Westfield Century City and loved it but first time to be here. I go to Santa Monica and Venice so it's not that Bacio opened a new location here. I have always love the Excellent quality for the gelato, sorbet and vegan flavors It was busy when I came in around 5pm. There was a line but it moved really fast because there are four people who are assisting customers. I didn't even do tasting of any flavors in consideration of the people behind me. I just went ahead and ordered half scoop of pistachio and half scoop of something with pretzel. Both flavors were so good. I really enjoyed licking and scooping it with gusto until it's all gone. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area. read more

Could not resist the sweet gelato fragrance as we passed by so we went in and got a piccolo cup of tiramisu and pistachio gelato. Tiramisu had more coffee notes, and the pistachio had a salty aftertaste at first but it grew on me and loved it even more. The workers were kind when serving us samples and we chatted about local events during checkout. It was so cute inside with small, round tables and natural lighting. No photo of our cup because it was so good! read more

She let us try a few samples and was super patient and friendly the whole time. Between the great service and the delicious ice cream, this was such a great stop. read more

Bacio Di Latte is my favorite LA gelato. The rest don't make them like they do! My go-to is pistachio! Delicious nutty flavor with pieces of the pistachio nut. Very creamy, perfect on a warm day in LA! The pistachio mousse gelato is a bit more sweeter not to my liking. I came on Wed. 25th of June for their free gelato day! I got a free piccolo sized cup, benefiting Children's Hospital, they matched every donation. I chose chocolate hazelnut and pistachio. Perfect pairing but I may be biased :) Super friendly staff. You can try samples and enjoy the indoor seating. Coffees, iced lattes, other sweets and pints also available. General parking lots available on 4th street, free for the first 90 min. Delicious gelato supporting Children's Hospital... cannot get any better! read more

I think I may have found a new favorite Gelato place. Bacio di Latte is a charming Gelato shop with cozy vibes. We went there on Sunday afternoon and the shop was busy. They have indoor seating. We scanned the QR code to read the menu. They have delicious and unique flavors of Gelato, in addition to Affogato bar, coffee , espresso and cookies. They use organic milk and organic cream. We ordered, -Bacio di latte and pesca -Stracciatella and bacio di latte and cioccolato belga -Caramello salato and crema Torino and bacio di latte The service was fast. The server was such a sweet and friendly young gentleman. My husband enjoy his Pesca Gelato. It was a refreshing peach sorbet.His second scoop was Bacio di latte. It had creamy texture with nutty hazelnut combined with light chocolate flavor. Stracciatella was light ,smooth and silky with chocolate pieces incorporated in the Gelato. It gave such a delightful taste. Cioccolato belga had extremely rich flavors and it is perfect for chocolate lovers. Crema Torino was full hazelnut experience as they described. It was fresh, silky and rich. Caramello salato had a nice balanced salted caramel flavor. Overall, their Gelato's flavors were excellent. We also ordered two drinks Iced sweet bacio latte and Iced caramello latte. The drinks were refreshing but they were not the best drinks I tried. I got pecan pie bar because it looked so good. I was glad it tasted delicious as it looked. We had great time and we enjoyed high quality and fresh ice cream. read more

Transport me to Italia! The gelato is delicious. Period. It was so good that we ended up going there 3 times in 2 weeks taking separate groups of friends who all loved it. It's always a fun experience to sample the different flavors. The Giandujotto (hazel nut and chocolate) tastes like a Ferrero Rocher while you can't go wrong with the classics like Straciatella, Mint Chocolate Chip, or Salted Caramel. For all the coconut fans, get the Cocco Rio - it hits the spot! They use organic milk and cream and make the gelato fresh daily. They have both indoor and outdoor seating and is a great dessert spot that I predict will win local awards shortly! read more

It's a Bacio di Latte - of course it's amazing! These shops have been popping up all over LA and each is as good as the last. This location is mere blocks from the Promenade. It's fairly small but there is seating indoors and a few small tables outdoors as well. The staff is helpful and friendly, and the gelato is as delicious as you might expect. We loved the new Cocco Rio flavor with the crunchy bits. I have no doubt that we will be back read more

Bacio di Latte was introduced to me several years ago at Century City mall where I vividly recall really good gelato and maybe staring at Drew Scott from the Property Brothers a little too long. Color me surprised to see it in Santa Monica this time around. Looked at the menu and while I toyed with the idea of getting two flavors in a piccolo, the affogato was what called to me, specifically the pistachio one which matched my outfit today no less. The affogato comes with one giant scoop of gelato and a freshly pressed espresso for you to pour over if you dine in, which you should try to. There are limited tables but I do feel like it turns over quickly. The presentation was top notch! The flavor? Equally delicious! It was also not shy with the pistachio which I really appreciated! Highly recommended! read more
