    Strawberry and biscotti cookie
    Michelle M.

    I was a fan of their Bischoff cookie gelato even though the cup it was in was leaking through the bottom. They add a triangle treat of some sort to every cup. Service was not a problem. They have an assembly line going. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Parking can be a challenge because it's on the main in Los Gatos.

    Delicious gelato spot to check out if you go to Los Gatos! There's many flavors to choose from (can also sample) and the serving size is very generous. Love getting different flavor combinations each time I go! There's not much seating here but it is nice to walk around this area!

    Non-ice cream options.

    Really good gelato in the heart of downtown Log Gatos, offering various flavors, including some rotating selections. It's a good place to cool down during many warm days. People were friendly. Quick to help and serve you either ice cream or coffee based drinks. Unfortunately, it's a very small shop without a restroom.

    affogato with cappuccino chip gelato
    Anna H.

    You know it's good when they take a KitchenAid mixer bowl filled with whipped cream out of the fridge to top off an affogato... I came after 4 miles on the Los Gatos Creek Trail. The cappuccino chip gelato was so rich and creamy without feeling heavy! If you love coffee, you will love this place. I'd love to try the espresso gelato. The only thing is just that the espresso will melt the gelato faster than you expect.

    Cute shop in the middle of downtown Los Gatos. On a hot day, Italian ice cream is a treat. The prices are what I'd expect in Los Gatos. The service wasn't ok. What was unexpected, however, was that the store was a little unkempt. There was trash and spills everywhere. Just keeping it real, sorry. I think Dolce Spazio is cute, and I've been there several times. I hope it stays around for a long time. I think there can be some minor adjustments, like offer a larger variety of flavors and have staff clean more during their shifts. I understand it's hard to do that when it's busy, but I was there when there wasn't a line. There shouldn't have been messes everywhere.

    Holy Cannoli Gelato
    Miranda L.

    I came here on a Sunday with a friend at around 4:30 pm and there wasn't a line but the inside seating was all taken in the small space. They had a good selection of flavors, some with creative names and I think you can sample before ordering. Holy Cannoli - The name and the ingredients were all very enticing out of the different options. The gelato pull was impressive and the consistency of it was so creamy and whipped. The cracker on the side was flakey, nice to scoop the gelato with. The ricotta and sweet cream flavor mixed with the crunchy pistachios and chocolate chips were a great balanced combination of sweet and lightly salty. Such a cute shop to get high quality gelato in the Los Gatos area. I would definitely come back to try some of their other flavors next time.

    Strawberry Champagne Sorbetto in the smallest size
    Derah M.

    Came in on the Fourth of July. It was somewhat busy, but the service was super quick and friendly. I sampled two sorbettos: one tropical flavor (can't remember the name, but it tasted like mango and wasn't my favorite) and the Strawberry Champagne, which was so much better. The Strawberry Champagne Sorbetto was creamy, soft, and incredibly refreshing. It was perfect for a hot day. I got the smallest size and was surprised it came with about three generous scoops. Definitely a great value and worth a stop if you're in the area.

    Uno cup with menta chip and strawberry and cream.
    Dave D.

    Dolce Spazio is a South Bay institution. It's been here since I was a kid and the place looks the same decades later. It's clean yet rustic and charming. The service is very fast and friendly as it always has been. The value is pretty good as a decent size cup of gelato is about $7. The gelato itself is decent. It's kind of sticky and gummy but it has good flavor. My favorite flavors are the menta chip and strawberry and cream.

    Michael L.

    This place was really good! They have quite a few non-traditional gelato flavors which honestly I liked quite a bit. The staff is also super chill and friendly, plus, the portion sizes are easily the best that I've seen at any gelato place around. They'll let you put (technically) as many flavors as you want, even into the small cup! I had the small cup with the butterfinger and biscotti gelatos and it was so tasty! This is a strong 5 star review and deserves a visit from anyone who happens to be in Los Gatos downtown. I have found my new go-to dessert place in LG downtown!!!

    While grabbing dinner next door, we couldn't help but notice the stream of people stopping by Dolce Spazio for gelato. With the heat, we knew we had to grab a scoop. There was a short line, but it moved quickly. I went with the tiramisu gelato on a cone -- super creamy with rich, well balanced flavor. They've got a great selection of unique flavors too; I sampled a couple others, and they were just as good. Dolce Spazio is a solid spot to cool off on a hot day or you're just looking for some high quality gelato!

    I love this place! The chocolate flavor is amazing. It's very rich and intense. It's definitely my favorite.

    Almond Gelato 4.8/5. Love the chunks

    Creamiest gelatos in town. Texture was similar to the ones that I've tried in Italy. Friendly cashier. Price is affordable for portions.

    This place is worth the wait- in line- there usually always is a line. I love the mint chip, the cappuccino chip, the espresso, and my kids love the strawberry cream gelato. They give samples and the prices are super reasonable. They have kids scoops too. There is some indoor seating and outdoor seating. There's usually live music next door so grabbing a gelato and sitting outside is a real treat in the summer.

We had to see if they had any, and luckily there was exactly one left! We bought it to have for breakfast the next morning. I'll admit, I was a little nervous because it was packaged in a bag and I wasn't sure how well it would hold up overnight. But the next morning, we basically fought over who was going to get the biggest piece. It was still flaky and delicious, and there was chocolate in every bite. The chocolate was in strips through the middle rather than spread throughout the entire pastry, but there was still enough that we never had a bite without chocolate. It ended up being such a sweet way to start our last day in town. They had so many other pastries and desserts that looked absolutely amazing, but we had just eaten lunch and knew we were heading back out for the day, so we didn't want to risk buying something that might melt in the car. If you're in Los Gatos and love chocolate croissants as much as we do, definitely stop in! And if there's only one left...don't hesitate. Grab it!

    I've been here a few times, and I honestly don't know why I haven't reviewed this place yet…read more The moment you walk into Manresa Bread, you're greeted right away. The space has a modern yet warm feel with beautiful natural wood finishes, fresh loaves of sourdough lining the shelves, pastries displayed in the case, and a mix of large communal wood tables, regular seating, and high-top tables. It's the kind of café that makes you want to slow down and stay awhile. The staff was friendly and helped us choose both a pastry and our toast. They were also happy to customize our order--we asked for the levain sourdough toast with butter instead of the usual olive oil. That toast was absolutely divine. The sourdough had the perfect balance: chewy without being too sour, with a crust that was crisp but not so hard that it fought back. Easily the best sourdough toast I've had in the Bay Area. If you come here, this is the one thing you have to order. The only disappointment was the butter. They serve French butter, but for an extra $2, the portion was tiny and honestly nothing special. I've had better butter from Whole Foods. It didn't take away from how incredible the bread was, but it wasn't worth the upcharge. Their Kouign-amann is also one of the best I've ever had. Instead of the typical flat, flaky style, theirs is taller with countless buttery layers that create an amazing texture. The cappuccino was another highlight. It had subtle notes of orange peel, whiskey, and cardamom, making it unique. The latte art was beautiful too. Overall, Manresa Bread is one of those cafés that makes you want to sit down with a laptop or a book and spend a few hours there. The only downside is there are no power outlets, so come with a full battery if you're planning to work. Must orders: Levain sourdough toast with butter and the Kouign-amann. Both are worth the trip.

It's best to get a double and share, IMO. The extra cost for a big extra scoop isn't that much, versus getting two single scoops. If you know the other person well that is. Love to come back again.
