Pay up front at the register then take your receipt to the counter where they will fulfill your gelato dreams. ;P Prices were good too (considering we paid a Euro more for a smaller "piccolo" cup on the Main Street around the corner) especially given the higher quality treat at this place. Our two scoop piccolo cups and cones cost us 4 Euros each and they are generous with the scoops. I got their specialty pistachio and coffee flavors and oh wow!!! My son got the lemon and watermelon and those were both really tasty too. Husband chose the Dubai chocolate and cheesecake and thoroughly enjoyed those. We can't wait to come back again tomorrow and the next day!!

They make their gelato with quality ingredients and classic Italian technique, and they've got all the flavors you want, from pistachio and hazelnut to refreshing fruit and even vegan options. The shop itself is simple, with a few spots to sit outside if you snag (but outs table service) for easy people-watching in the heart of the city. It's great on a hot day after exploring the Duomo area. I'd recommend it as a quick sweet stop, great flavors, a friendly vibe, and to take a breather to cool off with something delicious.

My wife and I tried four flavors between the two of us: ananas (pineapple), blood orange, pistachio, and stracciacella -- the first three were 5-star, delicious flavors, while the straciacella was disappointing (3 stars). While the staff was friendly and helpful (and they offer samples, which is great to try flavors, but it also slows the process a little bit), it is a popular spot, so prepare to wait for a few minutes before ordering. There is also limited seating inside, so between the few tables and the line waiting to be served, the storefront can get crowded. One extra benefit that didn't encourage me to visit but is a nice plus: Ciacco has a bathroom available for paying customers.

We were able to get a table right away even though it was pretty crowded on a Saturday morning. I wanted to look at the pastries and order there, but the whole process was a little chatoic. I told the woman behind the counter that I was sitting down at a table, and she told me she would hand it to my waiter. After waiting a bit, our waiter had to come back and ask what I ordered, and it seemed like he wasn't able to find it. Eventually he did come back with the correct order, and he was very apologetic about it. We haven't had the best service in Italy, but our server here was amazing! He was so kind and made the experience that much better. As for the pastries, I got the croissant with vanilla cream and the raspberry maritozzo. I wasn't expecting to like the maritozzo because I don't usually like cream puffs, but this one was so different from the ones I've had in the US! The cream was so light and fluffy, and the brioche bread was the perfect accompaniment. The raspberry jam added a nice tart flavor to it as well. Overall, this place gets a little crowded sometimes, but it's a great place to stop by when you're shopping!

Lively isn't halfway describing this place, madhouse is more like it! You start at the kiosk and you don't pick your flavors of gelato, just the type. Then you wait in line for them to call your number and people are jumping in front of you as though that will get their number called first (spoiler alert: it doesn't). But it is quite hectic and if you ordered cake too, that's at a separate counter and takes a crazy amount of time for a piece of semi-dry cake. The gelato itself is very good, it's just small for the price and the wait.

I like Cioccolati Italiani, I've been to a few stores and got gelato, breakfast, and today coffee…read more I ordered a caffè (which in Italy means espresso) and a marocchino not knowing that they make it special... Their special marocchino is a slightly bigger macchiato served in a glass cup with chocolate sauce inside. In other circumstances I would have been happy of this surprise, but today I wanted to avoid extra sugars and carbs, so i was not as happy as I should have been. I also wanted to limit to he carbs of the other person, but the espresso came with a light cookie. Again, a nice touch, but in the wrong moment. Whatever, those were my constraints, not their fault. Both the espresso with cookie and the special marocchino were very good. Recommended.

My PSL was not that sweet (the Sbux near San Babila station is the only one that has done it well so far...) and my sandwich was not good at all...some of the bread was dried out, which did not make for a meal I was excited about. Eventually when crowds get their drinks and leave, there still seems to be ample seating for people who want to stay and work.
