Gelato done right! The fact that they're constantly pushing out new, fresh, and fun flavours earns them the 5 stars. I haven't had a chance to try anything else but I loved the smooth taste of their ice cream. I got the corn pop cereal and tiramisu double scoop. Yeah, if you remember Corn Pops, you have to try it. read more

Came here and sampled just a salad and gelato! Wasn't able to try the other options, but I just say that the entire place smelled like freshly grilled pizza, and I was immensely captivated by the people sitting on either side of me who had a fantastically, slightly charred pizza with amazingly thin crust. I ordered a small salad, and was upset with its size. Although it cost exactly half the amount of the regular size, its portion size was less than half. It didn't even fill up the space given by the bowl! Taste wise, the arugula salad was decent, though they did go quite heavily with the parmesan. My friend ordered the vegan spiced coffee and salted caramel gelato. We loved the salted caramel, but the coffee one was a tad strong (true to its name!). There are definitely a variety of different gelato options to choose from, so go to town! The service there is okay, but my waitress was an absolute gem. She had a sweet smile and, upon knowing of my gluten sensitivity, kept rushing over to tell me possible options I could eat, and checking up on me to make sure everything was okay! read more

Sweet!? The Gelato maybe a little too sweet for my taste? All I remember was sweetness, maybe it is a good thing?! I do love the set up of this cafe and of course the awesome Yelp Check In offers for the free upgrade! Staff is nice and patience as my friend just could not decide on what flavours she likes and after a few I kind of phased out..... I will be back again when I am in the area and give this G For Gelato a try! And I will find a flavour I will like! read more

So sad this place opened after I moved (I used to live at Richmond and Jarvis). Fortunately, I still work in the area! I stopped in here last week as it was a beautiful day and I wanted some gelato. I couldn't believe how many flavours they had! So many to choose from. I decided to get strawberry banana. So tasty. I started talking to the cashier and she told me how the gelato is all made in house by an authentic Italian, so I knew it would be delicious and it was! I was browsing at the food menu as well. They had a lot of tasty selections, with daily specials. I would love to come there for lunch one day. A bit on the pricey side, but so worth it. The best part about the location is that it's right across from a park. How awesome is that on nice spring/summer days? read more

1 star for the service, 4 stars for the gelato. The gelato was delicious - soft, creamy and true to the flavor. It's definitely a nice place to pop by when you're in the area, especially since there's a nice little park nearby. However, the service as absolutely horrible. My friend wanted to try the smores ice cream and she's pretty soft spoken so when she asked to try it and pointed at the case, the server said: "Which one? this one? The smores? You know, it would help if you actually said the flavor instead of pointing at the glass." Then when a line started forming, she refused to let the customers behind us try gelato flavours until they paid. Thankfully, we didn't need their service for much longer after we got our gelato. Maybe I'd come back for a quick visit, but this experience leaves me with a bad aftertaste. read more

A decent sized gelateria. Kind of out of the way from the major main streets, but good amount of seating and would be a nice place to relax and catch up with friends. Flavour-wise, you have the usual standard selection with some neat ones mixed in, like Ontario sweet corn for example. Also heard there is avocado flavour but did not see it during my visit. The weirder flavours are a bit hit and miss - the corn one being neat at first but the taste gets tiring after a while. The usual flavours involving chocolate/vanilla/pistachio are great! The gelato here is creamy and very flavourful. I wish they would improve on their cups (cheap looking, and not nearly big enough for their generous portion size), and also the cones (kinda like the ones you get at supermarkets). The gelato here deserves better vessels lol! Overall, it's a good place. read more

In the aftermath of a snowstorm, I walked over here for some gelato because, when the craving hits you, and you find out about a delicious gelato spot in downtown Toronto, might as well grab some, right?! First, location. It's located at the southeast corner of Jarvis Street and Adelaide Street East, just across from the northeast corner of St. James Park. Second, make sure you 'check in' on Yelp. This spot has great offers for those engaging in the 'check in' option, including 25% off breakfasts or size upgrades for gelato and coffee (the options change). Third, the menu and ambiance. It's very clean, relaxed, and casual, with modern décor. It looks like they have a number of options on their menu including pastries (their Nutella brownies looked amazing!), sandwiches, and their specialty pizzas. And of course, their gelato - they have some really interesting flavours available like Vanilla Rosewater, Kit Kat, Coffee Crisp, and a number of others. I had a Small cup of the Vanilla Rosewater and Coffee Crisp, and I loved both - the Coffee Crisp wasn't as sweet as I anticipated, which I liked. And the Vanilla Rosewater was so, so fantastic! Great flavour and aftertaste - it literally tasted like rosepetals! It's not for everyone, but it's a unique flavour that you should try at least once! Lastly, service was so friendly and sweet. When I visited on a Tuesday around 12PM, I was informed that they actually have a Tuesday special where you can get 2 flavours in a Small cup (instead of just 1 flavour). They were so very patient and welcoming, and really made you WANT to come back to their establishment! For my Small cup, I paid around $4.00. I also had a bit of a friend's pepperoni pizza, and it was delicious. I will definitely and certainly back - a great first-time experience. read more

This was my first time trying out G For Gelato. I got Maple Pecan & Coconut Almond + Blueberry Lavender. Heard mix review about the customer service but when I went the staff were so friendly and so helpful of what gelato to get. Very generous on letting me sample a few flavour so I could decide on what to get. Ps they also severed pizza but I came mostly for the gelato. The gelato just melt in your mouth with a burst of flavour would totally recommend trying them out Bonus - They have a gelato made for doggies called "Puppy Paws" read more

I passed this place often enough I once stop in past for their Gelato and from memory so I need lunch and decide i should stop, They have their fair share of selection from breakfast (that end at 11am) to sandwiches to pizza to cake and gelato. To date I have only had the Gelato and it was really good, and tasty, I had the white choclate fudge gelato first while I waited for my chicken parmesian panini. It was heavenly and so good and creamly (thou i dont know the difference) its all good to me The panini was had a great toast to it, the chicken was tender the cheese was nice and melt, and the vegetable of pepper and mushroom top it off like you would expect Great meal and great dessert, got to try to pizza, or there breakfast (sandwiches) I'll be back (No i am not quoting him) read more

I love love love the gelato!! This place has the best gelato I have ever tasted and their flavours are far from conventional! I definitely recommend the London fog and the almond stracctico! Also they do have some gelato infused with alcohol which is very cool in my opinion. This place actually does brunch that I was not aware of! I will definitely go check it out! The pricing is $4 for a small, $5.50 for a medium with two flavours and you can pick a bowl or come! Personally I prefer the Cone. Waffle cones are $1 extra! read more

G For Gelato - Desserts instead of their usual large assortment of gelato - Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt Near Me - Scarborough, Ontario

Yeah for coupons! Found this place randomly and really like it, a lot of different chocolate flavours to keep chocoholics coming back for more. They let you taste test to see what you might like so you don't have to worry about picking something you might not like. read more

I have been to this location twice now, and if I were more a fan of frozen desserts I would be here a lot more. I must say, our last experience there was very pleasant. There was no line up (not typical - it's just the dead of winter) and were greeted by a very friendly girl behind the counter who offered us countless samples. She was informative, bubbly (but not too) and really made our experience better. She even told us to just relax with our gelato and pay on the way out. The two flavours we got were - Ferrerro Rocher and Mixed Berry (separate dishes of course). Both were very good. Not disappointed at all. We were wishing we had ordered two scoops! (The struggle is real) The Good: 1. Staff. Very friendly and really look to create an experience for you rather than hate their lives for serving (here's looking at you, Tim's!) 2. Taste. All gelatos I've had here are very good. 3. Hours. This place is open late which is great for those late night gelato or otherwise cravings. The Bad: 1. Variety. For a gelato place, there are not THAT many flavours to choose from. I was actually a little surprised. Recommendation: Ferrerro Rocher with a scoop of something else because one is not enough and two scoops ($5.50) is a steal. read more

After trying to get gelato at Kekou and realizing that they were closed for renovation, we came to G For Gelato because it's close to some cheap parking lots (King St and George St). We were excited to find this gelato shop nearby. They have a large array of flavors to choose from. We were fortunate that the person behind the counter was very patient with us while we were deciding on which flavors to eat. Eventually we decided on coconut, pineapple sorbet, and peanut butter. Each of the flavors were really tasty! If we're ever back in this area, we'll have to come back for more. read more

I was originally drawn to this place because of its gelato (heard good stuff), but didn't end up getting it because I got too full from the salad. Food is pretty good, my friend liked her roasted vegetable panini. This place definitely has the hipster feel to it. Tl;dr: Came for the gelato, didn't get the gelato, got the salad, salad was great. Everyone was nice, would come again to get the gelato. read more

Really cute little gelato place just a little bit east of the downtown core. They have a pretty decent sized selection of gelato flavours (around 16 maybe?) and some of them are very interesting! I got a medium sized cup with two flavours ($5.50 + tax), and tried pistachio as well as strawberry sorbet. Both of them were really, really good! In particular, the pistachio gelato was sooooo smooth and creamy and tasted really fresh and natural. I would very much recommend it! Strawberry sorbet was also tasty but not quite as exciting. I also tried some of my friend's gelato, which was sourberry and mango banana. I think the sourberry was okay, although it didn't leave a very lasting impression on me. The mango banana was a lot heavier on the banana flavour than the mango, so I wasn't too crazy about it. My friend and I also split a pizza, and got a pizza margherita, which was their special of the day. They have a different pizza special every day, which is apparently around $10 and comes with a drink, so it's a pretty good deal! I thought our pizza was alright, but it was pretty plain, just lots of tomato sauce and basil leaves. I did like that it was a thin crust pizza though, and it did taste pretty good. The people working there were all really nice and the environment was very comfortable and relaxed. The amount of gelato you also get is a LOT, like the cup was pretty much overflowing so I definitely felt like I got my money's worth! Would definitely come again to try other flavours! Also, I checked into this place on Yelp and then got a deal for 1 free brewed coffee with the purchase of any breakfast item :D Edit: for some reason now the deal is different and now it's upsize your gelato, which is kind of better :P read more

You guys are definitely my go to office lunch place. I'm on the other side of the country in our Vancouver office and I can always count on you guys to get the order right, on time, with great customer service, and everyone is always pleased with the quality food. You even were able to add bottled water to my order just before delivery when the city shut off our water to the office, in time for the client lunch meeting. I really appreciated that. I did have lunch and breakfast there while in town for work. It might seem like a little thing, but you poached the breakfast eggs for me, even when you didn't offer poached eggs on the menu. I know it takes longer and is a bit of a hassle to poach eggs if your kitchen isn't prepared to do that, but you never made me feel like I was inconveniencing you for that request. Again, excellent customer service. The eggs were done perfectly as well. I am a regular here, for sure. read more

Saw pictures for this place on Instagram so I decided to check it out especially when I realized that they served pizza as well. I ordered a Calabrese pizza. It was hot, flavourful and the crust was perf! I couldn't eat it fast enough. As far as the gelato is concerned, the rich taste and creamy texture of my salted carmel and OMG mix definitely started a party in my mouth! Would I go back again? Absolutely! The portion sizes are good, the service was great and my taste buds were more than happy on the first time around! read more

Omnomnom. Pizza: thin crispy crust, but they were dripping a bit too liberally with oil. Flavour was good, if a bit salty. Priced about $12-16 I believe. Gelato: very nice. The dark chocolate sorbet was exquisite (the best chocolate frozen dessert I've ever had), and I also really enjoyed the Bailey's flavour. However, their pistachio&almond gelato were a bit too oily. Food vs price: 4/5 Servers were ok, but it was busy so I can't judge. It's a nice, sunny space though, and the manager is very sweet. Service and ambiance: 4/5 I will come to kick back with friends on happy summer days. read more

I tasted Blueberry Lavender (Non Vegan) and London Fog Gelato. But ended up buying Vanilla with Rose Water and Pineapple with Mint. I LOVED both! Will go back for Pineapple Mint if I am in the neighbourhood. Just a little aside - It was really hot in there. The setting sun hits it straight so it gets really hot inside. read more

I've been a little obsessed with gelato lately. Partly from being obsessed with Minions from Despicable Me who also love gelato, and partly from having discovered G for Gelato that is a two minute walk from my place!!! Can you imagine how much my quality of life improved the night I found it!?!? I nearly didn't make it in the first night, because my gelato-obsessed partner got off work late and was to meet me there before closing. Don't be alarmed, their hours are decent - she just didn't get off til nearly 10. I called ahead of time and begged that they stay open til we get there at around 10pm. We were a few minutes after 10 and the guy who had answered the call said to us, "oh, I thought you guys would be even later!" Super awesome. They also have free wifi, plenty of seating and homemade pizza, soup and salad as well so I can last a day of studying surrounded by gelato and food :D Lots of gelato flavours - the pistachio is amazing! I am not usually a pistach girl but this one is A-OK! Next time I am trying the ricotta pear because the sample of it was delish. And, just for you, I'll let you in on the perfect gelato threesome... 3 scoops: Strawberry Lime + Pistachio + Ferrero Rocher! You're welcome. Extra thumbs up for check-in offer for free size upgrade (coffee or gelato)!!! [Edit] I forgot to mention amongst all the things they do well that the reason I took off a star is because it is not the best quality gelato as some yelpers have already mentioned. But given all other reasons I would keep coming back here! read more

Man, that funghi (aka mixed mushroom) pizza...it's WONDERFUL. I came here on the recommendation of my boss, who lives in the neighbourhood and comes frequently with his family - he even has the weekly specials memorized, lol. Of all the pizzas, he highly recommends the funghi pizza - mixed mushrooms and a bit of cheese, no tomato sauce (it's a white pizza), and they put fresh arugula and drizzle truffle oil over it after it comes out of the oven! I LOVE truffle oil! I visited on a Friday because it's when the funghi pizza is discounted ($14 and free drinks, when it's normally $17). The wait was reasonable, especially since they make it fresh, and when it came out, it smelled amazing. I loved this pizza because there's a great variety of mushrooms - I believe there's even shitake! And the truffle oil really adds something extra savoury and fragrant. The arugula cuts through the pungent mushroomyness of it all. And the cheese they use is really nice - it's rich but not heavy and doesn't compete with the mushroom flavour. I once had gelato here on its own and found it to be a smidge too sweet for me. However, I found that the gelato was perfect right after pizza. The pizza was quite savoury and salty, so the sweeter gelato balanced it out perfectly. This is a great, casual-but-nice place and it'd be a good place to take a casual date! read more

This a great hangout location with amazingly delicious Gelato. The good: Staff are super friendly and let you try the flavours before ordering. If you're eating there and it's quiet they even let you pay after you finish your gelato. Great tasting Gelato of course! Quiet during the winter so makes for a nice date place. Decor is very modern and loft like. The not as good: The location gets quite busy during the summer time. Sometimes they only have a few Gelato flavours to choose from. I've been numerous times and will definitely be back. read more

The gelato was the best in the town!! I went there at snowy morning on February but I felt warmed because of the amazing food. I ordered a frittata and gelato in pistachio and chocolate. --The green pistachio was so delicious, smooth, fresh and any beautiful words in the world. Even the chocolate was not that good by contrast. --The frittata was hot and tender. It served with Parmesan making it taste better. The stuff were all so friendly and I almost fall in love with the girl who made the gelato!! Noticed that pizza are only available on the lunch time but a gelato for morning is enough. read more

Halooo Blogstees!! We're extremely excited as we're about to tell you about our very first Zomato event! We felt very blessed and honoured to be invited by Zomato. The meetup was held at G for Gelato and Espresso Bar. We were told that it was going to be an interactive evening with gelato making demonstrations and the opportunity of making our own gelato. We didn't know what to expect, who we were going to meet, and how the event was going to be but we were very excited and couldn't wait to meet everybody. As we can tell by its name, G for Gelato's main focus was on their gelato. They strive to bring customers the tastiest, freshest, and finest gelato in Toronto. Although they keep their menu true to the classics, they aren't afraid to explore new flavours.. In addition to gelato, they also provide gourmet thin crust pizzas, paninis, salads, and much more... When you step into G for Gelato, the first thing you'll notice is the friendliness of the staff. They put their best effort into making sure every customer is satisfied and leave with a smile on their face. Here's a look at their pizza oven standing at the back of the café =) Fridge filled with variety of drinks - both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Ice Latte - one of the simplest drinks on the menu, yet it was one of the best ice latte I ever had. The amount of coffee they put in was just perfect. Best drink for the hot summer. We started the night with some Lemonade to freshen up. Then we had Ceasar and Caprese Salad. The Caprese was garnished beautifully with mozzarella cheese and tomatoes. Extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar was drizzled on top for added flavours. For our entreés, we ordered six pizzas =9 It might seem like a lot, but we finished them all without any problems =D A closer look at our pizza, .Pollo al Pesto - pesto sauce, mozzarella, grilled chicken breast, caramelized onions, roasted red pepper, fresh basil .Funghi - assorted mushrooms, fontina cheese, topped with arugula shaved parmesan, truffle oil .Calabrese - tomato sauce, mozzarella, spicy soppressata, roasted red peppers, black olives .Prosciutto Contadina - tomato sauce, mushrooms, mozzarella, topped with arugula, prosciutto and shaved parmesan .Salsiccia - fior di latte, spicy italian sausage, caramelized onions .Pizza Primavera - tomato sauce, goat cheese, mushroom, diced tomatoes, roasted eggplant Here are our Gelato tickets. To purchase gelato, there are three simple and easy steps. 1. Choose Size 2. Pay & Get Tickets 3. Pick your Gelato Flavours & Enjoy! Yellow Tickets = One Flavour Green Tickets = Two Flavours Red Tickets = Three Flavours G for Gelato offers over 30 different flavours of gelato. They have the classics and modern flavours (like Kitkat, Nutella, Bueno, etc..). Depending on the season, they also offer refreshing fruits and vegetables flavours. All of their ingredients are purchased from local farmers and markets. As expect, they did a phenomenal job in their gelato - very creamy and smooth. The flavour was rich, yet not overpowering. My favourite was the Blueberry Lavender. The colour was beautiful and the flavours compliment each other very well. Later that night, we had a competition on making the best gelato. Iris, myself, and other Zomato users were divided into three teams. The owner of G for Gelato, Sean, was our judge. Before making our gelato, the staff gave us some samples to taste so we would have an idea of what flavours compliments each other the best. There was pistachio, nutella, peanut butter, liquid graham crackers, coconut, and much more... Here a look at their gelato lab. Three racks of wet and dry ingredients that we can choose freely to create our very own gelato. Iris and I have the idea of making a breakfast flavour gelato, which consist of the taste of coffee and pancake. Here is our ingredient list~* .espresso .liquid graham crackers .maple syrup .blueberry syrup .nutella & rice crispy mix The power mixer is used to mix all the ingredients together before putting them into the ice cream machine. Two ice cream makers aka "John & Joe". One of the staff demonstrated how to extract the gelato from the ice cream machine. It looked easy at first, but when you're actually doing it, it required lots of energy and skills; folding and pushing the gelato in the tub. After extracting our gelato from the ice cream machine, Iris and myself added blueberry and nutella syrup for more flavour. When we were satisfied with the additional flavours we can put in, and started swirling to make sure the flavours were blended in well. Crushed waffle cone is added for some crunchiness and more cookie flavour. Here is it! Blogsters very own gelato - "The Morning After"!!! There it goes into the freezer for 10 minutes! The final products of the night... "The Morning After" "Blueberry Summer Spritz" "Nutty Irish Surprise" WE WON!!! THE MORNING AFTER WON!!! Sean liked our gelato the most as it reminded him read more

Great food, terrible service. I walked in here to meet my mom for a simple dinner. I had ordered the Thursday $10 Calabrese pizza and pop special. For those that don't know Calabrese is spicy. So I kindly asked them to split the pizza - half pepperoni, half Calabrese. I gladly paid for the extra topping. Not knowing if the Calabrese was the pepperoni or vice versa, I had kindly asked the waitress, Julia which one was which. Based off her irritated body language, she wasn't happy about my question. She walked around the counter and made me feel stupid that I even asked the question - "this is obviously pepperoni." Obviously, I wasn't happy about Julia's attitude and was very straightforward how I felt. Julia eventually walked back to me and forcefully apologized and explained that she, "can't believe people ask these kind of questions, it's common sense" and then said, "did you not see pepperoni before?" I explained to Julia I'm not one to judge anybody's situation or why they act a certain way as I worked retail before and understand some people don't treat "workers behind the counter with respect", but for the people that do show respect and treat them like anybody else, she should acknowledge and do the same. Don't let one bad apple ruin it for everybody else. She was rude, maybe it was the lack of a/c or maybe she had a bad day. I understand the latter, but she shouldn't make a respectable client feel like that. Totally embarrassed and ruined a dinner with my mom. Worst service I ever encountered in a eatery spot. Sorry to say, because of my experience with Julia, it ruined my perception of this place. Great spot for pizza or gelato though - just make sure you take it to go. read more

Just like some of the other reviews have mentioned, the gelato at this place is pretty damn good. Lots of favours to choose from and they change it up quite a bit during the week, so that's great! However, their service is terrible to the max, especially one of the blonde female server. She's rude beyond belief and gives you crap attitude. Honestly, I'd only come here on my good days because I don't want to start a fight with her. If the owner/manager is reading this comment, please fire her! You'd have much more businesses with her gone. read more

Great service and my new breakfast spot. The breakfast wrap is made fresh with delicious Italian sausage and red pepper mayo.

G for Gelato + Espresso Bar has quickly become one of my favourite gelato and coffee bars in the city since it's opening back in 2011. Located at the corner of Jarvis and Adelaide, across the street from St. James Park, it is truly a neighbourhood gem serving by far some of the best gelato in the city! G is a family run cafe which serves authentic Italian fare, including pizzas, panini's, various desserts, a wide array of coffee including espressos, americanos, lattes and cappucinos, and most importantly the gelato which is made in-house with natural ingredients. What's unique about G is that not only do they offer all of the traditional gelato flavours including hazelnut, chocolate, strawberry etc., but they are not afraid to experiment with new flavours. Upon each visit, I have noticed new flavours being introduced including apple pie, chocolate coconut, peanut butter and jelly, pina colada, and even maple bacon. Although I haven't been brave enough to try the maple bacon flavour myself, as I am more into the sweet tasting hazelnut and coconut flavours, these guys really know their gelato and I wouldn't be surprised if it was on its way to becoming a classic flavour soon to be served and enjoyed by patriotic Canadians across the country ;) Most recently I've noticed a contest they've been having which invites their customers to provide their ideas on what the next flavour of gelato should be. It is clear that G is passionate about what it does and truly appreciates its customers, and I don't doubt that's why this place is always so busy with both new and repeat clientele! If ever in the St. Lawrence Market, I encourage you to visit G for Gelato + Espresso Bar, as there is something for coffee drinkers and gelato lovers alike! The cafe's open and bright space, along with the friendly faces are sure to draw you in, and I guarantee you will not be disappointed! read more

G for Gelato is a great place to grab a coffee and maybe do some work on your laptop (they have free wi-fi). I have never actually had a meal here so I can only comment on their coffee and gelato. Definitely go for the Blueberry Lavender Gelato and the Watermelon, Peach + Passion Fruit Gelato - they are amazingly good. The espresso here is pretty decent, but not the best I've had. Pastries such as croissants, macarons, and muffins are also available at the counter. Check in on Yelp for a free upgrade in size on coffee or gelato. read more

Another drop in to G, and another deceptive service experience. This place could be 4.5 stars based on it's gelato alone. And I'm not a picky person when it comes to service, my yelp reviews are almost always based on food quality alone. But I've gone from apathetic to fed up with the service at G. To summarise: - On our first visit, the sign out front advertised 'now serving pizza' and when we asked for pizza they wouldn't serve it because the oven wasn't set up. - Another time the server recommended a pasta dish as an alternative to the pizza they AGAIN weren't serving yet (but let me pay for), claiming that the pasta was 'just cooked out of the oven now'. They brought me a lasagna that was still frozen in the middle, and short changed me for the pizza originally ordered (the pasta was less expensive and I had to point this out to get my change back). - One time we went in and pointed to the sign on the counter for fresh squeezed juice. Again, they were advertising juice when they hadn't set up the juicer yet. Maybe wait to put the sign up? So I let this slide as growing pains as the business was in it's first 6 months for all these incidents. And now, the straw that tipped the scales of my patience. My partner tried to buy an iced cappuccino, which they didn't have in stock. Ok. So he orders an iced latte instead. The server charges $4.75. He points to the fixed menu behind the counter clearly stating $3.40 for an iced latte. She refused to let him pay the fixed price, saying the price has gone up and they haven't changed the board yet. I'm sorry, but if the board hasn't changed then neither has the price. When he asked to speak with the manager her only response was 'sorry'. I will come back for gelato, because it's bloody good and across the street, but I would never bother to try anything else this establishment has to offer purely because of the confusion the servers always have about what they offer and how much it costs. read more

Very excited to see a new option open up for lunch. After what feels like an eternity of waiting for this spot to open, stopped in for lunch today and wasn't disappointed. It was pretty obvious that they weren't 100% up and running (lack of menus, empty refrigerators, a bit if disorganization) but given that they haven't officially launched yet I will cut them some slack. The place itself is nice - sleek and clean with a decent amount of seating. I Ordered a margherita pizza, it arrived quickly and was delicious. The crust was delightfully crispy, think more Terroni than Libretto, and ingredients were fresh and tasty. They had a few panini's, salads and frittatas also available, but I'm sure the menu will expand once the place is running at full steam. read more

I came here under a recommendation from a friend who has visited several times and lives near by. I did not have any food rather, only got to experience the Gelato. The Gelato itself was good, tasted fresh. They have a lot of unique flavours and combinations that you dont really see at many Gelato places. You can mix and match flavours, cup or cone & the prices are really good for the portion sizes they have. The gentleman who served us, Im going on a whim here and suggesting he was the owner, was funny, helpful and I would return just for his charming behaviour and being patient with me and the couple buddies I brought along for the first time. Only complaint really was it was warm inside, the Gelato wasn't as cold or frozen, as I would have liked it to be. It began melting as soon as I got my cone. But it was delicious! read more

"This is really awesome ice cream, eh!" says random guy sitting on bench outside this shop while waving his cup of gelato in my face. That, and the number of people spilling in and out of this shop was enough to convince me to wander in... even to pay $4+ for a single scoop of gelato on a cone. It certainly looked good. I asked for samples of the mango and coconut. Both were way too sweet. I asked for a third sample: raspberry. The woman behind the counter gave me an exasperated look. Fine. After deeming the raspberry edible, I decided to have the raspberry on a cone. I was sad because coconut is always my go-to flavor for gelato and ices - this was just far too sweet, despite the flakes of coconut in it. Maybe I'm just spoiled for choice, having lived in NYC with L'Arte and Laboratio. After leaving the store, I bit down into the cone to find it hard and stale. Yuck! My litmus test is always the cone. This cone was hard, old, and downright inedible. The reason why this review is 2 stars instead of 1 is because of the Americano my boyfriend ordered, which was very nice. If you want good gelato in Toronto, I recommend Dolce Gelato - yes, it's far, but everything I've had there is delicious. read more
