I prefer the white, so I stuck with it. Price is to be expected for Disney Springs, but they have a large variety of gelato flavors and desserts. The staff was friendly and answered my questions without making me feel stupid (much appreciated!). Only downside is there is no seating indoors, which is rough during the summer. If you're getting classic gelato in a cone, be prepared to eat it fast!

The staff is really nice and they let you sample as many things as you want, but it's hard to find something you're not gonna love. The actual space inside is super modern and fun and reminds me of a true Italian gelato shop. Fun designs, and even a cool wall if you're looking to take a photo. I got the large waffle cone, which includes two scoops and you can mix some match flavors. I got caramel on the bottom and the cherry flavor on top. The only bad thing about it is once it's gone you'll want more. The owners are really really nice and this is a place I would recommend for a date night on Park Avenue or for a treat for the family! Dig in!

From day one, the owner has made us feel welcomed, remembered, and truly part of his world, and that level of hospitality is something you can't manufacture. It's real, and it's why this place stands out. The gelato is on another level entirely. I've traveled, tasted, and tried gelato in major cities and abroad, and nothing (absolutely nothing) compares to what's being crafted right here in our growing Ocala. The flavors rotate constantly, keeping every visit exciting and perfectly matched to whatever mood you're in. Each batch is rich, smooth, balanced, and made with a passion you can taste. We've never left with a single regret, only smiles and that satisfied "this hit the spot" feeling. And honestly, the gelato here deserves worldwide recognition. It's that exceptional. But what truly elevates La Dolce Vita is the owner himself - someone who cares deeply not just about his shop, but about the people who walk through his doors. His pride, kindness, and consistency have created a place that feels like home for so many of us. Ocala is lucky to have this treasure. Thank you to the AMAZING owner who has poured years of heart into serving this community. This is a must‑visit, a must‑return, and a place that continues to set the bar for what great gelato (and great hospitality) should be.

It's got to be me...with all the rave reviews, I was so excited to try dessert from La Dolce Vita…read moreGelato and Pastry. I just don't understand why everyone but me is raving about this place. My friend went in to order sfogliatelle and a black and white cookie. He said the woman behind the counter was a bit impatient with him as he was looking at all the pastries and actually shook her head in frustration. I took one bite of the cookie and couldn't eat it. Both it and the sfogliatelle had a musty taste, though my friend said the inside of the shop didn't smell musty. I wanted to be one of the ones to rave about this place. Sadly, I cannot.

I'm notorious for ordering their cream cheese salmon bagel with capers paired with a café latte.

Both out of this world and like the Reese's old commercial together they tasted amazing.
