    I can't really really judge this place yet, but I am going to anyway. I went on their 3rd day somehow and added it to yelp. Somehow amazing places find me sometimes. It must be the yelp elite in me that attracts them. I was craving coffee at Avalon. I walked in and it was crazy busy, but it wasn't really because at first I thought that the window was actually a door to their dining area where you can sit down. Later I realized that's ANTICO! Antico was crazy jam packed and this place was not too bad. Caffe Gio's gelato looked amazing, but it seemed too decadent for my taste at that moment so I stuck to just coffee. I wanted to get a million different coffees, but the menu was very limited due to the fact that their syrups shipment hasn't come yet. I couldn't try their affogato (where they add ice cream to the espresso) and I couldn't try their lattes with nutella. Caffe Gio just kept teasing me with their menu. So I'm just going to truly review it when I come back and try these amazing sounding things and just say that this is a cute coffee shop at Avalon. Avalon needed a coffee shop since it's an awesome hang out place otherwise. I think Caffe Gio, a European style Italian gelato and coffee venue, filled that need nicely. PS: Their cappuccino is amazing. It's cute and simple, but great quality. If you're looking for something sweet, I wouldn't get it, but if you're a coffee lover, I would definitely try it.

    Eh. Service wasn't super friendly. I was able to sample two things while the sign stated only one sample per person. The pistachio and strawberry gelato were good, but it wasn't awesome to any degree. With these two flavors, my friend and I shared the large cup--$6. There was a good amount of spaces inside and some tables outside as well. Aim for the movie theater, and this place is to the left of it.

    I came here to satisfy my sweet tooth while shopping, and I was not let down. They made my cannoli fresh and filled it up with cream and chocolate chips. The cannoli was crispy and rich just like it should be. My brother got the cookies and cream gelato, and he really enjoyed it. The only reason for 4 stars was because it was quite expensive for a relatively small portion. Definitely give the cannolis a try.

    Needed to get rid of my garlic breath from Antico so went next door for coffee and gelato. My friend is a huge fan of their iced coffee - I try to avoid caffeine so I got gelato instead. I was so happy when they said I could sample the different flavors - their midtown location does not. I asked the very friendly staff for their favorite flavors - one said Stracciatella (chocolate chip), the other said Nocciola (hazelnut). I tried both. I also sampled Pistachio b/c I've always been a huge Pistachio fan. All good flavors. The single is $5, and double is $6. I asked if I could get two different flavors in the single - they said no, you have to get the double. So I got a double: one scoop Stracciatella, one scoop Pistachio. Turned out to be too much for me - and it melts rather quickly. I looked at my review of the midtown location - last time I shared the double w/ a friend, and got Caramel and Pistachio. It appears I forgot the Caramel is very good. I'd recommend getting at least one scoop of Caramel ... actually that's more a note to self :)

    Best espresso hands down OTP. The gelato was incredible. About 10 types to choose from. Friendly staff, seating is tight and limited but the place has a great feeling. The red ceiling sets it off and it just feels comfortable. I had pistachio gelato and one scoop was more than enough. I couldn't even finish it. Can't wait to go back.

    Iced latte!

    I'm basing this review solely on the coffee; they also have gelato and other things on the menu that looked quite appealing too. Came here hanging out with my friends at Avalon for the day and stopped by to get our usual coffee fix. The place looks great, right next to Antico pizza and Regal cinemas. I went for the iced latte, they serve it without sugar so that you can sweeten it at your own taste, the latte was good and the staff was very friendly. Nice place to catch up with your friends for sure, I would like to come back soon and try their gelato next time. All in all a nice visit. P.S. Can I just mention the fact that it seems like finally is easier to park in Avalon compared to last time I visited haha, definitely a plus.

    Pretty good and authentic Gelato in a cute atmosphere. Right now you can sit outside by the heaters under the Christmas lights with a view of the ice rink. Honestly, that alone can't be beat. I had the Stracciatella (average) and the wild cherries gelato (delicious!!). They also have a few cannoli and illy coffee.

    Cute presentation and didn't fail the taste buds:) def back to try more

    Friendly staff and great gelato. Reasonable pricing and the staff member also gave my daughter a free scoop as she doesn't need much:) we def will be back for more yummy gelato!

    This place is nice and casually trendy. The decor is very nice and looks expensive. The menu is not that big. They serve gelato, pastries and good coffee. I've tried the pastries. They are not too rich or too sweet. The creme brûlée is not really creme brûlée it is mainly flan consistency with espresso coffee. It is good but not what you would expect. A must try item on the menu is the Affogato, gelato served in espresso. It is served in a beautiful latte glass. It is dessert and coffee in one! They only have 4 coffees on the menu. I wished they had more options. I always ask them to make my macchiato (shot of espresso) into an Americano by adding hot water to it and they honor my request. I always get coffee and dessert here every time I'm at Avalon.

The inside is very spacious and they have a lot of seating. I really like the little booths; they are such a cozy feel.

(normally I would get a Yemenis chai, but it was tooo hot). It was an interesting take on the drink because the strawberry flavor comes from strawberry milk instead of strawberry syrup. & the matcha creme is very sweet. I really liked this drink and it had such a rich flavor, I will defiantly try it again. They were also very nice, and made the drinks quickly.

We got it and it was very clean and modern. They have a space theme, but it seemed like that's what the initial idea was and it dropped off along the way. The setup is very similar to other cafes and their ice cream display was very nice. They have some interesting flavors like Hokey Pokey and we were able to get some samples which were all good. Myself and another opted for the 2 scoop cup and i got Hokey Pokey and the hazelnut chocolate (forgot the real name) and they were very good... but I was put off by one thing. Both of us got 2 different flavors and were charged a dollar more for it. That seems like a rip off and honestly left a bad taste. I thought it'd be a good option compared to Jeni's, but not with pricing like that. The scoops were also considerably smaller than Jeni's and Jeni's is a better deal and a better ice cream in my opinion. I'm not a fan of getting nickel and dimesd for something that shouldn't cost more. I'm sorry it took so much effort to scoop from another flavor. I won't do it again.

    When I say this ice cream is the BEST I've had in the cityyyyy…read more We tried so many different samples and had such a difficult time picking which ones because they were so delicious. Service was great! The workers were so polite and gave us little tidbits about all the flavors. I recommend trying the seasonal flavors first because they're only there temporarily (you won't be disappointed). The ambiance/space is clean and well lit and there are little games at each table that you can play while you wait or while you enjoy. Will definitely return when I'm in the area.

The interior was adorable but what impressed us the most was their approach to coffee. We had no idea there were so many different ways to process coffee beans so we ended up looking them up while enjoying our drinks. Once we learned more about them, we were so intrigued that we actually ordered some coffee online afterward! It was easy to see why this cafe is so popular. The line kept getting longer and longer the entire time we were there. It's a fairly small cafe so seating was pretty limited as well. I ordered the Latte with Caramel Cardamom and it was delicious! My husband got the Coffee Shot of Chamomile Pink Bourbon from their "Coffee Nerd Drinks" menu. He was especially interested in it because of the brewing method. I'm usually not a black coffee drinker but I tried a sip and was surprised by how much I liked it. There were still so many drinks we wanted to try but since this was only a weekend trip, we didn't have enough time. We'll definitely be visiting again the next time we're in the area!

I usually get a vanilla latte as my litmus test but I just had to try the girls breakfast. Which was fabulous. The cinny cold foam was A+. Also the baristas were very friendly!

That aside it is made to look European but theme is all over the place. German/Austrian interior, with Italian and French food. The language tape in the bathroom is however teaching Korean and Chinese... I dined here about half a dozen times. It is a nice place with mixed results. Sometimes it is really good, other times not so much...in particular I could say Hummus is good, White Hot Chocolate, Bosco cake is delicious (imported from Italy). Service is good and servers are polite and friendly. Management is not great. If they are busy they will have a wait which could range up to an hour. In my experience one hour wait could turn out to be 10 minutes. Other times 40 minutes wait is actually 50 minutes. As I live close by I have attempted to call and put myself on the wait list and arrive when they are ready but management would not budge. This will be on their terms with zero flexibility... They also sell cakes but cakes are always turned away from the customer...I have not seen this anywhere else...it really points to the fact that management has little experience in hospitality industry.... Lastly this place does not accept cash. Not sure why since they are located in super safe area. Consequently a 5-star review is really a three star and perhaps I am being very generous here...
