Gelato a Roma! Così tanti tra cui scegliere, ed eccomi qui basato su un'alta raccomandazione con ottimi risultati! Con una varietà di gusti che corrispondono alla loro descrizione, ho scelto un sapore di vino rosso al doppio cioccolato abbinato a un sapore di crema allo zabaione. Situato in un piccolo e facile passaggio, fai attenzione a questo negozio! Gelato in Rome! So many to choose, and here I am based on a high recommendation with great results! With a variety of flavors that match their description, I went with a double chocolate red wine flavor paired with a eggnog cream flavor. Located in a small and easy to pass by, be on the lookout for this shop!
Deliciousness in a cup. Pure flavors and wonderful creaminess. Large selection of cream and fruit based gelato flavors. They let you sample as well.
A very popular spot- meaning it can be somewhat busy, but the line usually goes pretty fast. Honestly, this is not the best gelato you can find in Rome, but it is still very very good, and where it really shines is the variety of flavors. Some, like almond (mandorla), you would have trouble finding at other shops. They also have specialty flavors that they switch out every few days- if you're a fan of floral flavors, their rose and raspberry is delicious. A must stop for those who like adventurous flavor combinations!
Excellent gelato. The service was great. I loved the melon and fig flavors. The raspberry and prickly pear were also tasty. They offered a couple of different types of cones. The heard us speaking English and started speaking to us in English. I look forward to coming back.
Wow. This is the best gelateria in Rome! The milk chocolate, strawberry sorbet, hazelnut, mint chocolate chip, pistachio, and coconut were delicious. We tried a few other gelato place and this is definitely the best!
You should turn around and head to Frigidarium immediately where their gelato is 1000x better. Got the pistachio and chestnut flavors here and the first tasted too chalky but still better than the chestnut, which tasted absolutely artificial and overly sweet. Had to throw it out immediately and walk over to the nearby Frigidarium to have gelato there to cleanse my palette.
Came here right before midnight and wanted to quench my thirst with something fruity so I elected for the pineapple mint and cactus pear. Pineapple mint was good. Cactus pear just tasted sweet. I couldn't really identify the flavor. It's a little pricier than Giolitti but I don't think it's necessarily better. The flavors are a little more unique but if I had time for just one Gelateria, it would go to Giolitti.
Located at Via dei Coronari 65, not far from the river, Gelateria del Teatro is considered to be one of Rome's best places for Ice Cream by some, a reliance on fresh Ingredients yielding some forty flavors daily with seasonal specials changing frequently. Offering guests the opportunity to watch Gelato being made through a large window, both this location and one at Lungotevere dei Vallati open from 11h30 until 24h00, guests are unfortunately denied a taste before making purchases, which thus encourages a reliance on past favorites. Also selling various Chocolates and Candies, questionably made on-site, three scoops were added to the top of a yeasty Cone for a bit more than Rome's average, the arrangement not particularly eye-catching but Base luscious and creamy with good flavors of Pine Nut and Pistachio, though less from Torrone.
All natural and you can taste the quality. Good but had better. Still happy I tried it. Some different flavors like honey and rosemary
Rome is a town in which gelato can literally be found on every block. You'll never get to experience even a fraction of these, so it's Yelp to the rescue! We had heard that Gelateria del Teatro was the best, so we put it to the test! Why not a 5? Because the Frutti di Bosco flavor at L'Orso Bianco was the best flavor I tasted in Rome and nothing else can compare!!! They certainly offer the most inventive flavors in all of Rome, separating itself from the thousands of gelaterias in the city with clever concoctions. The white chocolate and basil is very good, but the lavender and white peach is where it's at!!! The proof of extraordinary freshness is not merely in the taste. You can actually watch the gelato being made from scratch in the front window, or on live video feed in the dining room. The store is very bright and clean and features a beautiful ceiling with wooden beams. Upon entry, don't forget to take a ticket from the machine at the door or you'll be passed over!

We loved the gelato here! Tell-tale signs of authentic gelato: flat tubs (the big puffy gelato you see at other places means it was pumped with air), natural colors (for example, pistachio gelato here is more of a brown color, at the tourist traps it is usually green), and seasonal flavors (this place tells you where the ingredients are sourced). There is a window next door which shows the adjacent room where they make the gelato on-site. You can see lemons, oranges, etc. on display, Fresh ingredients! I loved every flavor that I tried but my overall favorite was pistachio. So good! We came here twice. The first time we went, the person working there was very friendly and helpful. The second time, the gentleman behind the counter was more quiet. read more

This is the third time I've been to this gelato restaurant. This time I took my daughter because I was so impressed with it the first two times. Now she's also extremely impressed with the flavors. She also knows the difference between fresh made and factory produced gelato. We ordered three flavors and loved them so much that we went back for two more scoops of our favorites. There's definitely a difference between gelato that is made with organic ingredients, freshly made on site as opposed to in a factory. The flavors are so much more intense when they're freshly made. I think the guy thought we were crazy when we came back in so quickly but I told him it was too delicious not to have more. Both guys behind the counter just had big smiles on their faces. read more

Take your ticket before walking in! It gets busy and they call out those numbers. It'll be back of the line for you if you don't have a ticket. Sherbet all on the right side and Milk ice creams on the left, you choose. Both our outstanding in terms of texture and natural flavors. This is my second best Gelateria in Roma (second best because they only have a hand full of flavor choose from in the milk side). Nice sitting area in the back of the shop or nice neighborhood to take-out and pick a spot to sit. Love it! read more

This was our favorite gelato This was the best gelato we had in Rome. It came by way of a recommendation from a friend who spent a few trips in the city. Why? 1) amazing selection of flavors. Not just what you'd expect. We were there for Halloween and had pumpkin chocolate ice cream. They also had ricotta cheese and fig! 2) the gelato was smooth and authentic 3) the cone tasted great. It was light and delicious. Make sure u try it instead of the cup 4) they're very organized. Take a number at the door. They respect the deli counter number system. As an American traveler I'm annoyed by Europeans cutting in front of you because you're a foreigner. They really respect the queue. Follow us on Instagram @sebastianfashionicon read more

TAKE A GODDAMN NUMBER AND WAIT!! Once they call your number you can order. Incredible gelato place. This place was a 30 second walk from our hotel so we stopped by nonstop, towards the end of our trip they recognized us. Should have just opened an account. A small cup or cone is 3 euros and can hold two flavors. Please stop sampling so much and order because the line is long. Below is my quick summary of flavors we tried and remember. Flavors we tried, Pineapple Mint - must try, true pineapple flavor but made lighter with the mint Garden Sage and Raspberry - good, unique. Bits of raspberry stuck in and sage flavor and scent is incorporated into cream of the ice cream. Lavender and white peach - good, loved the bits of peach. Pistachio - very good, nutty & creamy. Café (coffee) - must try, had this multiple times. Also think it has a bit of caffeine, had this one night, couldn't sleep. Stracciatella/witih cacao nibs - must try, this was two different flavors, one with chocolate chip and the other with cacao nibs. I preferred cacao nibs. Milk Chocolate - simple, straight forward, good. Mint Chocolate - must try and my fave. Mint was strong and chocolate was not only chocolate but cacao nibs which gave a much more satisfactory crunch. Peach - Very peachy had real chunks of peach, yummy. Melon - True to flavor, I'm not a fan of melon flavors but husband chowed down Lemon Granita - soo refreshing and good. Slightly tang, slight sweet. Lemon Ginger Granita - Just like above but with a subtly added heat of ginger. Felt detoxifying lol. Overall, would highly recommend the freshness and quality of ingredients really shines through in each flavor and you can also see them make the gelato through the window from the street. read more

Come si dice 'HOLY MOLY' in italiano? Sacro moly? This is the gelato that you came to Italy for. What, you came for the art and culture? This is a masterpiece right here. Perfect for hot Roman days and sultry nights, del Teatro has some amazing gelato that has garnered a lot of praise. I don't quite remember where I read about it, but it was on my radar and my husband and I saved room for dessert on our first night in Rome and came here just before closing. My eyes bulged just looking at the splash of colors in the different flavors. As usual, I impulsively chose two flavors within two seconds. I always trust my ice cream intuition. Raspberry and sage and a creamy flavor with chunks of cherries were my inspiration. My husband deliberates more methodically, but selected equally as delicious pistachio and chocolate-y something. This is the purest and tastiest example of La Dolce Vita. Fellini would be proud. read more
While in Rome it's more than easy to get your fill of gelato, even if it's just in one neighborhood. The question of preference comes down to the individual and their taste. Given what I've experienced, Gelateria del Teatro features some of the best gelato in all of Rome. The gelato shop is located in a pedestrian only side street not far from Piazza Navona. We discovered it while on the way to the Pantheon. They offer a wide variety of both classic and inventive gelato flavors. The gelateria also makes other sweets like bite sized cannoli and truffles. All of the sweets are made with the freshest ingredients. The proprietor of the store focuses on in season produce to make the flavors. On our visit, I chose a scoop of sicilian wine cream and a scoop of pumpkin, amaretti, and chocolate. The two scoops came in a cone for a total price tag of €3. My wife also chose the wine cream and added chocolate orange. I am amazed at the amount of flavor Gelateria del Teatro is able to pull off with their gelato. The pumpkin gelato tastes exactly like real pumpkin. Each bite feels like the gelato was made fresh just for you. I highly recommend this gelateria for anyone traveling in Rome. It's not only some of the best in the city, but anywhere in my experience. read more

Loved the spicy chocolate gelato at this cute little Gelateria. Also enjoyed the pistachio from Siciliano. My GF said this is the best in Rome. I'm not sure. I feel like we should be scientific and try them all. In the meantime, my junk food stomach is full. read more
I couldn't decide what to order, so I got 2. Yes, two all for me. The mango and mint are my favorites. All ingredients are fresh. I even saw them squeezing lemon and honey into the batch. There are tons of gelato places all over Italy, but I do recommend this place. read more
Without some research it is hard to differentiate a good gelato place in Itlay especially when there is always one round the corner. But after trying so many around Rome I can say Gelateria Del Teatro was one of my favourites serving some of the creamiest and smoothest gelato I've had. The young male staff there was a bit cold and grumpy looking. it looked like we disturbed him half way watching some video on his phone which when we went to sit down to eat, he resumed playing it. He still looked bored out his mind though.However that didn't affect how much we ordered our dessert so I am not going include it in my star rating. Ren ordered the pure chocolate and it was the richest chocolate ice cream I have ever tasted. It so thick, silky and smooth with a shine that almost made it look like a solid ball. But that was only the result of how densely packed it was, with no air gaps but just pure cream. I ordered a mix of Sicilian almond and pistachio gelato which were both excellent. A lot of the previous gelato I've had in Rome had small ice particles in them but this was incredibly smooth throughout. No interruptions to the creaminess or their nutty rich flavours. Curious about their green pistachio tiramisu, I ordered it for novelty and didn't expect much from it. But it was shockingly wowing, so airy and light it was almost like eating condensed air. The addition of pistachio gave it a rounded nutty sweetness to it. Highly recommend. read more

Delicious home-made gelato made from fresh ingredients you can see in the window! Teatro was recommended to by a couple of my Italian friends - so glad we managed to stop by a couple of scoops! Gelateria del Teatro cater for vegans and vegetarians! When you go in make sure you collect a ticket from the machine at the entrance - it gets very busy so you want to ensure you're next in line! There's are a few quirky tables outside - perfect for basking in the sunshine (also seating inside). I tried the [alphonso] mango gelato - beautiful, soft texture and not too sweet. Delicious! read more
