    I got one scoop of Thai coconut ice cream with sticky rice and mango as my toppings delicious combination, and the mango was perfectly sweet. Service was quick, especially considering there was only one worker on shift at the time. She did a fantastic job greeting everyone and keeping the vibe welcoming. The space inside isn't huge about 10 seats so it's more of a grab-and-go dessert spot. Music was playing in the background but not too loud, which added to the atmosphere. Really enjoyed it. 10/10, would recommend.

    Finally an ice cream dessert that doesn't tear up your stomach we started supporting this company when they participated in the Asian markets . So happy when they opened up shop close by. A bit pricey but delish! Love all of the toppings.

    This is a small place with not a lot of decor or seating but amazing coconut ice cream! I got a single scoop with mango and sticky rice, and it was the perfect size for a little dessert. The coconut ice cream is super creamy and nutty, the mango was perfectly ripe, and the sticky rice was very sticky and a little sweet. The service is fairly quick, though only one person was working so once a line started forming it slowed down a bit. The prices are a bit outrageous to me, as this one scoop with two toppings was over $10, and if you want the coconut bowl it's even more, but it is a very tasty and unique treat!

    So fresh!! We were eating dinner downtown and decided to pop in and try it after seeing a ton of instagram reels about it. People were a little hesitant about the price in other reviews ($17) but it was well worth it! We all split the mango sticky rice ice cream bowl and were blown away by how delightful it was. The fresh coconut chunks had everyone fighting for bites! We will def go back!

    Had Cococello once at a Mega Night Asian Market, & had to go try their new location on Central. With recommendations, I chose the coconut filled with two scoops of coconut ice cream, sweetened pineapple, palm seeds, & peanuts. It was so good and fresh. It's a bit pricey, but it's def so good and addicting and shareable! I will def come back to try more flavor combos! Love this Thai Coconut Ice cream and it's def a must try.

    If you're looking for a dessert spot that truly stands out, this place is an absolute must-try, especially if you're dairy-free. Their Thai coconut ice cream is honestly incredible. Since it's naturally dairy-free, it has this light, refreshing creaminess that comes straight from real coconut, not milk or heavy cream. The flavor is pure and authentic, you can taste the natural sweetness of fresh coconut in every bite. It's smooth, satisfying, and perfect for anyone who wants a delicious dessert without the dairy. I also tried their matcha, and it's one of the best matcha lattes I've ever had. You can tell immediately that they use authentic matcha powder, not artificial syrups or pre-mixed flavoring. The matcha is earthy, bold, and beautifully balanced, with that natural bitterness that true matcha lovers appreciate. And even better: this one is dairy-free too, yet still unbelievably creamy. You can add ice cream to it. What I love most is how intentional they are with their ingredients. Everything tastes fresh, natural, and thoughtfully crafted. They clearly take pride in serving high-quality, real food, and it makes all the difference. Same with the ambiance, really nice! Highly recommend!

    Yum! I'm a big fan of ice cream and I love coconut. The customer servicevwas great, friendly, and informative. The ice cream shop has a sophisticated look but mostly seats set up against the wall, like counter seating. The ice cream had great coconut flavor, it was also creamy but there were some random ice crystals that took away from the creaminess. The ice cream was served in a coconut bowl with stripes of fresh coconut. I went with stixky rice, sweetened pineapple, topped with salted peanuts and I think coconut cream. It was a great combo, the saltiness with fresh fruit and creamy coconut. Island flavors...soooo good. The price point is a little on the higher side so this will be a once in awhile treat.

    Been dying to try this place and had the opportunity on a Saturday evening. The store front seemed to have no working AC so it was very hot inside. The young man working the front counter lacked knowledge of the menu such as referring to a topping as "tasteless and weird" yet admitting to of never tasted it himself. With tip I spent over $20 which I cannot justify as the ice cream itself tasted a little freezer burnt. The decor was very cute.

    I went to Cococello with a friend. I love coconut, so I knew I was in for a treat. The ice cream was served in a half shell of coconut. I chose palm seeds and lychee as my toppings. I thought the ice cream was good, but not worth the price (around $18). As others have mentioned, the seating here is against the wall counter seating. It was pretty busy on the Saturday afternoon that we went. We had to wait a while before ordering so that we could secure a seat. It would be hard to order and take this ice cream to go since it doesn't have a natural lid. Don't forget to scoop up the coconut flesh when you're done with the ice cream!

    This dessert place has been my favorite accidental find so far in STP! We were walking along on a Christmas walk and were surprised to see a bunch of people crowding around inside for ice cream. Everything tasted so fresh and they split up the sticky rice and mango topping for us so we got to try both! Ice cream is fresh and it's presented beautifully. A very light refreshing snack. Service was very friendly despite how busy and stressed they looked, prices are very fair for the quality that you get. Delicious!!

    The Cococello storefront has been going absolutely viral, so my friend and I had to check it out for ourselves, and wow, this place is blowing up for a reason. This was the freshest dessert I've ever had. The coconut milk ice cream was perfectly, lightly sweetened. We both got mango, sticky rice and peanuts on top, in a shell with coconut shavings. Not only was it beautiful, but extremely refreshing, it really tastes as good as it looks. The spot was clean, and our orders were prepared quickly. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was very pleasant.

    This Thai coconut ice cream is excellent--creamy, refreshing, and perfectly balanced, not overly sweet. It's served in a traditional Thai style with a coconut shell and crispy cone, topped with palm seeds and sticky rice and an edible flower, which adds a beautiful touch. (Varieties of toppings to choose from....... Make your own version of Thai coconut ice cream) You can really taste the quality and natural coconut flavor. Simple, authentic, and very well done. Highly recommended if you enjoy traditional Thai desserts.

    This place knocked my socks off! Ice cream was really flavorful of coconut and not too sweet. The toppings were fresh and paired well with the ice cream. Service was really good, the place is so clean and fragrant with the smell of fresh, sweet coconut. Such a gem and so unique!

    This place is insanely overpriced. $9 for a tiny scoop. Ice cream was more icy than creamy.

    Good service, cool options, but $9 for a small scoop of ice cream is insane to me. I ate the whole thing in five bites :(

    Paciugo is very much a "walk around Beach Drive with a gelato and suddenly life feels cinematic"…read morekind of place. The second the Florida heat becomes unbearable, this is where everyone ends up. And honestly? Valid. The gelato is actually good, not just cute-for-Instagram good. The pistachio and dark chocolate flavors deserve their loyal fanbase, but the real danger is the free samples because suddenly I'm standing there trying seven flavors like I'm a professional gelato critic. The vibe is peak St. Pete at night. People walking by with their dogs, couples on dates, groups lingering outside way longer than planned. It somehow feels both lively and weirdly relaxing at the same time. Also an affogato here after dinner just feels like good decision making.

    Paciugo Gelato and Caffe is such a great local spot. We stopped by on a Saturday night around 8:00…read moreand the line was out the door, which was a great sign. Even with how busy it was, the staff kept things moving and the wait was well worth it. We tried the coffee gelato and it was absolutely incredible. The flavor was rich, creamy, and tasted like real coffee without being too sweet. Every bite was delicious. The prices are a little on the higher side, but I love supporting local businesses, so it is worth it to me. The quality speaks for itself, and I can see why this place stays so busy. I will definitely be back to try more flavors.
