Great gelato, and always friendly staff! I always recommend this place to anyone in Omaha, especially when they're looking for Old Market destinations. I love that they're always experimenting with new flavors and varieties, and still have classics available. Never a disappointment whether I want novelty or "tried-and-true." read more

Truly a 5 star experience even when door dashed! The bananas foster crepe was excellent! Highly recommended as a traveler visiting Omaha for the evening! read more

Loved the pistachio and the coffee flavors. They had a good variety sounding the neighborhood again, I'll try the tea flavor. The woman working at the counter was very friendly and there is plenty of seating outside to people watch. read more

My daughter and I have been to Centi a few times and they don't disappoint. We usually get a crepe but have tried their gelato. Pretty much everything you can get from here is good. The crepes start around $10 and go up from there. The employees are always really nice and accommodating as well. My daughter absolutely loves this place so we will be going back very soon. read more

Absolutely FABulous DAH-rling! The place was cute, service was great, staff was friendly, and there are dairy free options for those of you who might need it! Staff helped by explaining flavors, walking us through our flight options which was nice. The recommendations were spot on too. The place was clean and VERY well maintained, the staff was knowledgeable and friendly, the food was very good and a bit on the price side but nonetheless very good. Is it worth a stop if you're on a date? Yes. Random Tuesday and you've never been here? Also yes. read more

I am always impressed with the high quality gelato at this place! My favorite flavor has to be their London fog. I'm not a huge tea person, but this is delicious. The space has limited indoor seating but they have several tables outside. They have a great set up and team behind the counter. read more

The service was really good, very friendly very nice. It was really cool to see them make the crêpe right in front of your face. Taste just as you would expect it. I love me some crêpes. The ambiance is cute and small. read more

Centi - Nutella crepe w strawberry - Desserts Near Me - Omaha, Nebraska

Centi is such a fun stop in downtown Omaha! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by friendly staff and a bright, welcoming space filled with greenery and natural light. It's a cute little nook! Definitely more of a grab-and-go spot with limited seating, but perfect for a quick treat. I ordered the classic crepe and it was delicious. Fresh strawberries and so much flavor. We also tried the tres leches crepe and lemon curd ice cream, both of which were amazing. I really appreciated the simplicity of the menu, which made choosing easy, and our crepes came out incredibly fast. Overall, a great experience and I'll definitely be back! read more

Such nice addition to the Old Market. In business for a little over you know, Centi offers a European Café experience including outdoor seating. We were pleasantly greeted by the staff and treated to walk-through of their menu. Everything made in House, including their coffee ice cream, which is caffeine fueled from their own coffee! Prepackaged gelato is also available to take home for a midnight scoop! Waffle, cones, cookies, crêpes, or just a cup of gelato or coffee to perk you up. The entire business has a very European feel and flavor. If you looking for a special desert, or refreshing beverage, Centi is open daily and starting a little earlier on farmers market days. Metered street parking or a nearby parking garage is available. Enjoy a treat and walk the market or simply relax with one of Centi's offering as you catch up on your people watching. Check out Centi!! read more

Gelato is a different kind of ice cream that uses less fat. It's churned slower mixing less air resulting in a smoother, denser, silky texture allows stronger flavors. It also will not melt as fast. And you can get more citrus flavors. Centi is a small shop serving a few flavors. Service was spot on. You can get a single cup for about $4.00 scoop. They're about half the size of a regular scoop of ice cream. This scoop does weigh about the same as ice cream because gelato is denser. I chose lemon basil. It is my go to for trying gelato. And I must say this was refreshing as early spring. You can taste the over bearing lemon with the basil present. It was great. I sat outside watching people go by to the different eateries in the area. The sun was in its golden hour bringing the vicinity to a rich warm glow of colors. It definitely made eating my gelato better. read more

hate the price but LOVE the flavor of the cajun salmon crepe and the chorizo crepe. I didn't add cream to my salmon crepe bc of lactose intolerance, but the ladies were flexible and spoke spanish which was fantastic and made me feel at home.

Wonderful! I love it when I find a place where excellence to the craft is carefully pursued. This is a super chill place. Both times we've been, all our servers have been so friendly and helpful. Thank you. The tiramisu crepe is fantastic. The tiramisu-cake studded mascarpone provided the rich texture and sweetness of the classic dessert, and the mini chocolate chips were the perfect size to balance it out in the crepe package. I would have preferred a stronger coffee flavor to this dessert, but I will 100% order that, again. If you're looking for something a little simpler, the lemon crepe sounds plain, but is out of this world with fresh lemony flavor. All of Centi's syrups are made in-house, and it shows! Delicious. Paired with the lemon gelato, it's a citrus lover's paradise. The savory crepes are fresh and robust--the gruyere in the Cheeseburger crepe is a wonderful nutty addition to the hamburger and bacon. The Chorizo con Huevo was spicy and flavorful, and freshly prepared when ordered, so everything tasted great. The kid got it without the arugula, but the lemony-peppery flavor of that would be great if you also like the green. ;) The savory flavors play really well with the crepes, and there's a good balance to all the ingredients. The coffee here comes from Archetype Coffee. The espresso is pretty good. It's got a citrusy, lemony overtone, but it didn't have a biting acidity, and was smooth. The horchata is a refreshing complement to either sweet gelato or a crepe, not too sweet, and lightly balanced with cinnamon, plays well with others. The star of our visit was the iced London Fog (unsweetened). The tea was strong and so aromatic, with a lovely floral tone; the overall effect was enchanting and so tasty! The London Fog gelato is not so strongly flavored, but sweeter, and pairs great with the tea. The gelato is way awesome, by the way. The taro tastes exactly like the taro flavor you find at most Bubble Tea places, and the watermelon and the roasted banana taste exactly like the fresh fruit, but in gelato/dessert format. The peach mascarpone was a bit heavy on the mascarpone and light on the peach flavor--still good, but be advised! The vanilla bean was perfecto, with the little, crunchy vanilla bean pieces. Super refreshing. If you aren't sure what flavors to pair together, the vanilla and the lemon would complement most other flavors nicely. OH! And they even have little frozen treats for the doggins! Definitely recommended for a quick treat, or to stay and vibe awhile in the beautiful outdoor seating area. read more

This place really blew my family away. We came back to try this berry brûlée crepe. So surprised how they packed in so much flavor. From the billion berries, to the wonderful creamy custard. And the top it off with the sugar brûlées shell. The crepe itself was so good. It was a little thicker than other crepes I've had, but I think that is why it held up to the filling. I will note that it took a bit of trial and error to figure out how to eat it out of the handheld container. I used a spoon and plenty of napkins. The seating area was outside, which with the hustle and bustle of downtown was not my fav. Luckily, this treat was made to travel! read more

Gorgeous little gelato, crepe, and coffee shop, located in the heart of downtown Omaha! I am putting this place on my Omaha Coffee Tour for sure! The default milk is Oat and I love that as it makes the coffee taste better (in my iced oat latte loving opinion). The syrups are all made in house, which always makes them better! The Sweet Lemon Crepe was very yummy, I would have liked for a bit more substance within the crepe but I am not a crepe expert or very familiar with how they are made so I might be wayyy off with how I would have liked it to be stuffed. I enjoyed how it tasted overall and how the crepe was made right in front of me! The service was wonderful and the staff seemed to be loving their jobs, I got the coffee flavor recommendation from the worker. The cardamom rose flavor was perfect for a nice afternoon drink! I highly recommend this beautiful business! read more

Best gelato in town!!! This is the real premium stuff. They do a great job rotating in new flavors so there is always something new to try. Heads up - they max you out at 1 sample. My favorites are the matcha cookies & cream, lemon curd, and cookies & cream! Folks working are always really sweet and great at giving recommendations. There is no indoor seating but a little bit of standing room if it's too hot outside. Otherwise there are a few tables and chairs outside. It's a corner in the old market so great for people watching! read more

Crepe was nice and light. Very tasty. I got the Elvis. That was from my husband. I had the brown sugar rosemary, iced coffee. After I stirred it up it was delicious with the light refreshing flavor from the rosemary. The service was great. They were very friendly and helpful. This was a a great little afternoon treat. read more

"Cool vibe, mid-tier gelato." Stopped by CENTI in the Old Market for some ice cream during the College World Series weekend. The place was packed, and the overall ambiance was great -- music playing, people everywhere, and that classic Old Market energy made it a pleasant place to sit outside and soak it all in. As for the gelato, we went with the flight and tried Cookies & Cream, Absolute Chocolate, Pistachio, and Raspberry Sorbet. It was decent, but nothing that blew us away. What kind of took away from the experience was the strict "one sample per customer" rule -- makes it tough to choose when you're looking at a wide variety of flavors and want to explore. Another odd moment: we asked for water, and they pointed us to bottled options for sale. When we asked again, they filled two small cups with warm sink water -- no ice. Also, the inside had a weird smell -- maybe bug spray or paint -- not exactly inviting. All in all, CENTI has a great location and the outdoor vibe is hard to beat, but the gelato and service don't quite live up to the setting. It's okay for a one-time stop, but I wouldn't make it a go-to. read more

Delicious gelato! The Sicilian pistachio is so good. No alone flavor which is pretty common in pistachio flavored ice creams. Every flavor we had was great. Nice and creamy and very flavorful. Prices are on the higher side for small portions but similar to high end ice cream shops. Customer service was good. No inside seating that I can recall. read more

What a fun addition to the downtown area! We needed more dessert places so I'm glad to see Centi doing well. We stopped in on a Saturday night for a little sweet treat. It's a small space so the line was a little cramped but nothing like other places around. The person scooping was quick and friendly and the person checking us out was also warm. The menu has plenty of options to cure your sweet treat, including caffeinated options like an affogato. We opted for the birthday cake and the coffee stracciatella. Both were smooth with a lot of mix ins. The birthday cake base did leave a little to be desired as it didn't have a ton of flavor. It was basically a vanilla flavor with sprinkles. The coffee was almost the opposite with the base coffee flavor being a little too strong. However the chocolate pieces in it were plentiful and delicious. We just wanted a small treat but $3.95 for one small scoop (what they call kids sized), I was hoping for a tad more for our money. It was probably a quarter cup of gelato total for that price. We did sit outside, and being a corner spot in the old market, there was no shortage of people watching. Overall not my favorite experience but we'll be back to try something different when we're in the area again. read more

We went to Centi for a midday treat and WOW i'm glad we did. One of their crepes was just what I needed, and i'm still thinking about when I can go back again. I got a crepe with Nutella, strawberries and bananas. It was delish, served nice and warm so the Nutella was warm and melty. l went back again for gelato and was a little disappointed. I was between flavors and asked for samples of both, and was told 1 sample per customer. I don't see the point of giving out samples at all if you can't compare them. I was pretty bummed about that. All of the other ice cream/gelato shops in Omaha seem to be pretty generous with samples. read more

Went to Centi to get their yummy Gelato and ended up getting their creme brulee crepe. I saw someone eating it and had to get one myself. I looove creme brulee and this was delicious. The creme brulee is in a crepe shaped like a cone. It had berries throughout! It was so creamy with the delicious burnt sugar top. It is in Old Market. We sat outside to eat and it felt like we were in Europe. Def a must try and a place you need to bring someone who is visiting Omaha. read more

I'm so happy that Centi has their own brick and mortar location now, and it's so cool inside! I first tried Centi at a Yelp Elite event (which is the awesome part of the Elite Squad, getting to try new places or new to you places). At that event we got to try little flights of mini gelato scoops. Their gelato is out of this world delicious, so as I said - it was so amazing to drop in to their new physical location. My favorite flavors I've tried are: -Lemon Curd: I love lemon anything, so this was my fave. It was tart, sweet, and creamy all in one. -Vanilla Bean: This was light and airy, but with a little "kick" of it having the vanilla bean and not just vanilla by itself. A nice, light-tasting option. -Taro: This was super velvety and had a taste of both sweet and almost a bit savory, with a sesame type flavor in there. If you're a fan of non-cloyingly sweet gelato, this one is for you. -Lucky Cereal: This tasted exactly like the milk that is leftover after you eat your cereal (if you did that as a kid). So sweet and filled with little marshmallows! They have so many other flavors too, so definitely stop in and try them out (or go back for new flavors, if you've already been!) read more

After eating dinner across the street we needed a sweet treat. Despite it being nearly 30* outside we opted for some artisanal gelato. Cute exterior and interior with brick walls. And despite it being a gelato spot it was nice and warm inside. I was sad they didn't offer samples though. I would have liked to try a flavor before committing. I asked the guy behind the counter the popular flavors and went with the coffee stracciatelli and the strawberry horchata. D2 got the taro Pandan and the matcha cookies and Mr got the mint stracciatelli. Everything was very good and smooth. read more

I go crazy for Centi. I really do. Their crepes are sooo good and are my favorite sweet treat downtown. Everyone who works there is really nice and they always do a great job. The only annoying thing is that you can only sample one gelato which is kind of pointless if you're trying to decide between two flavors as I often am. Still love them though. read more

Located downtown this spot offers more than just delicious gelato, they offer sweet and savory crepes, and a fun vibe.

Can't wait to come back and try more flavors. I really enjoyed their vanilla, its not like your average vanilla, its just so good! read more

Really yummy affogato! I got it with smoked marshmallow ice cream flavor. They had a great range of flavors both vegan or dairy free and regular. I tried a London fog flavor that was fantastic! I did deduct one star because there's only one sample allowed and there were too many good flavors to try! I do respect the eco friendly nature of not having a million little sample spoons wasted daily, but maybe having reusable ones would let people be able to try a couple flavors before settling on the one they want. The service was good, we had a larger group and we were in and out fairly quickly. The gal making my espresso was new and had help making it so it took only a tad bit longer to get my affogato but I'll definitely be back again. read more

So happy that Omaha has a gelato place! I'm a huge fan of gelato and really enjoyed their gelato. They have a variety of unique flavors like taro, red bean, pandon, and more which I was so happy to see because not a lot of gelato/icecream place really explore with these flavors. My favorite flavors were the taro and matcha. The staff was amazing and their location is nice just make sure you find parking because it does get busy down town. They also serve crepes and will definitely have to try those next time. read more

If you're going to have a ridiculous one sample policy, you should at least make it very clear before giving the first sample. You lost a sale today because we didn't like the first sample, and without being able to taste a second flavor, we weren't going to buy any actual scoops. read more

I don't even have words to describe how amazing this scoop of bourbon vanilla gelato was. It's a small scoop, pretty soft...you might not be impressed by looking at it. Absolute bliss to eat. This place will be very popular soon. It's in the heart of the Old Market. There's a little patio there or you can sit on the big circular planters and watch all the Old Market sights. A scoop was $4; or you can get 2 scoops for $7. Waffle cone is available for $1+change extra. My husband wanted to try one but there was going to be a short wait so we just got dishes. I think the cone would just be a distraction here. I will definitely be back. I have a plan to try everything on the menu but I might end up getting the vanilla every time. My husband got the Vietnamese coffee. I tasted it, and it was great, but the vanilla was better IMO. read more
