After many visits and knowing I am always going to leave with at least one pint, I finally read the remarkable article about the founder/owner. She studied gelato at university in Italy!! Wow, what a cool topic to study and it shows her commitment, devotion, and skills which all go into the wonderful flavors at SweetCup! She experiments with different flavors, cultural flairs, and combinations. The location has seating inside for about 10 people and outside patio tables with chairs for another 10 people. Free parking right in front is always a bonus. See you there!

Amorino is one of my favorite gelato spots! Any time I am near galleria area craving something…read moresweet I stop by amorino. 9 times out of 10 they are open so it's convenient and good quick self service to order. They are open until 11pm weekdays and on the weekends close at midnight. Your cone can be made to a flower shape. This became very popular and since then has remained busy. The line usually goes fast, if you see a line don't worry it won't take long. Worth the wait & price. Greta variety in flavors and cute indoor but small. The best thing to do is the grab and go walk around.

Amorino Gelato is my go-to gelato place (both River Oaks or Galleria locations) when I'm craving a…read morecold dessert. You can't go wrong with any of their flavors, but my favorites are pistachio and the Amorino chocolate. I tried their hot dark chocolate too, and it was the thickest hot chocolate I have ever had, and it was definitely dark. I would probably go for a milk hot chocolate if you want something sweeter but equally While the quality, service, and flavors from both locations are consistent, the River Oaks/Highland location has a nicer vibe to it, and appeared more well-kept, although it has very limited seating. The Galleria location is located in the middle of the mall, has more dining space, but the seating area was not as clean as the River Oaks location when I visited.

Allowed me to try multi flavors. Shared with me about the speakeasy next door and there new menu and concept. The place is so cutsey, nicely decorated. The parking is limited to a few spots out front. I didn't check to see if there was parking lot in the back. The Gelato itself was fair, but did not blow me away with flavor. I got a Nuttella half scoop. I appreciate they had smaller sizes if you don't want to overindulge. I'm glad to have tried it, and may come back for the speakeasy. But will 'stick to the rivers and lakes" that I am use to for now.

I still have not made it into the speakeasy. No matter. The gelato remains absolutely tops, the…read moreservice is still friendly. Very cute interior and tables outside. Only downside is later parking as it shares parking with the Rossa restaurant next door, which often gets busy. Earlier in the day, parking is golden.

Rocambolesc has great but pricey soft serve gelato…read more Trying to escape the Houston heat, I decided to drop by Rocambolesc because I had heard so many great things about their location in Spain. The chain is headed by a three Michelin star chef Jordi Roca who is believed by some to be one of the best pastry chefs in the world. While this is not necessarily pastry, I wanted to see what he would do with desserts. When you first step in, there is definitely a childlike whimsy to the decor of the place. They have plenty of seats inside as well as outside. I was hoping to see unique flavors, but I did like the few flavors they did sample. Beyond the soft serve gelato, they do have coffee and few prepackaged sweets to buy. When you order, you do get the soft serve gelato with unlimited toppings, which I wish I knew that so I could better select the combination. I did get mango passionfruit (4,5/5) which was super smooth and creamy with the right amount of tartness from the passionfruit and sweetness from mango. The fruits and nuts I got to add were a nice combination. My favorite was the nutella drizzle on top... smooth with little crunchy pieces. My only complaint was the price... While I did enjoy it, I am not sure it was worth the cost... The service was pretty friendly. Located in the Uptown Park plaza, there was parking readily available when I went on a weekday, but could vary depending on how the plaza gets. Overall, Rocambolesc offers great soft serve gelato with unlimited toppings but may be reserved for a special occassion.

I am a tough critic since I am from San Diego, home of the #1 Ice Cream shop in the Nation two years in a row. I walked in and the interior was very clean and clutter free behind the counter. The flavors were very plain w basic flavors. Nothing too exciting. I had a double of Pistachio and Coconut. The first thing I noticed was how small the scoops were!!! Tiny cup with tiny scoops. I did like the flavor of pistachio and it was packed with nuts. The coconut had very little flavor. It was so slight could barely taste the coconut. Disappointing. What I did notice was the soft creamy "stretchy" texture. This was truly unique but the flavors lacked. I am not sure if I would return myself, but for anyone who hasnt tried Booza, I do suggest you try it. Experience the texture and "stretchy" ice cream. The biggest issue is the price point! High price for the portion received!

Came in on Wednesday around 5PM and was helped right away. We sampled several of their unique…read moreflavors like Rosewater and Turkish Coffee but ended up getting a scoop of Hazelnut Chocolate and Pistachio. The ice cream is definitely a bit different from what I'm used to as it is Mediterranean style. It's very stretchy and it melts in your mouth but I don't think I'm used to the texture. It also didn't give me the "wow, this is super good" type of reaction. As for the flavor, the Hazelnut Chocolate was flavorful, delicious, and strong but the Pistachio was the opposite. The ice cream itself was very mild and I think adding pistachio was actually the only thing that made it "pistachio". Other than that, the staffs were nice and I think it was still worth a try. They also have clean tables and a lot of parking spaces.
