    If ya know, ya know. Gelato is ice cream's older brother, maybe a little more accomplished and refined, appeals to the ladies, and generally just does most everything with that extra panache. The flavors are sharper & the milkfat is lower and it's a rather fantastic experience. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Lamonte shares space in the historic Sacred Heart Hospital building and there is ample space in or out at which you can enjoy your treats.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This small business has won 'Best on the Coast' awards and you can absolutely see why! Gelato is almost fluffy, it seems creamier without the cream, and the combinations can seem endless. They even have a variety that is Olive Oil & Fig, which was sampled by a member of our party and deemed fantastic. Our shared cup of Salted Caramel & Double Chocolate did not last long, and when served with a waffle cone wafer, it made for the perfect union. A small cup, in which you can mix up to two flavors, runs you $5.50, and the larger cup will run you $6.50, making it super-affordable for this artisanal approach to a wonderful delight. Lamonte even puts together a fabulous coffee/drink menu, so there is just about something for any time of day. Pro tip: try an Affogato, a delight of espresso over vanilla gelato. The staff is friendly and certainly willing to suggest something for gelato rookies, and you can see why this brand is exceptionally proud of its product.

    Easily one of the best gelato places I've been to in the states. Every flavour I had was delicious, plus the scoops were quite large. And every time I've been, they've been super nice and polite. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The shop itself is perfect. Plenty of seating and has a welcoming classy no frills vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will always hit this place up when in Pcola.

    Was AMAZING gelato!! We all loved what we got and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the inside was so cute as well![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The server was so sweet and let us try quite a few flavors! Definitely come here if in Pensacola!

    The gelato was very creamy and rich. You get quite a bit for a good price. The line to wait was quite long but worth it.

    We noticed this cute little shop when we went out to eat at the Burrow. So glad we brought the kids back to try it out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It is in an old hospital building with beautiful architecture.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The inside is decorated so cute and clean.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff were absolutely amazing and knowledgeable and let us try samples. I had the Belgium chocolate and pistachio- both with amazing flavor- the pistachio was spot on. My kids had mint chocolate chip and Bischoff cookie butter and both loved it. My husband tried a few sorbets and thought they were great. The waffle cookie on top was so crunchy and good! We will definitely be back.

    I love this gelato/coffee shop! The gelato is very creamy and the espresso was amazing!! I sampled multiple flavors and I liked the salted caramel the most! Located in the old Sacred Heart Hospital! Definitely worth going to! Prices were cheap!! Probably one of the better ice cream places in town!

    The Ice cream was the bomb! Service was great and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the atmosphere cozy![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I really can't say anything but it's a great little ice cream shop with a great product. If ever in East Hill on a date night and looking for a great way to end the evening this is it!

    How lucky are the citizens of Pensacola...the only real gelato I have had in the US. Amazing...better than a lot of the gelato in Italy. The Florentine cream is so beautifully balanced and perfect. The pistachio a real symphony. Homemade cones that border on stroopwaffles. I thought that some serious culinary genius was at hand and read later it is owned by a sommelier and a Michelin chef. It all makes sense now. The panini's are amazing as well. Thank you for creating such delicious beauty!

    My favorite Gelato that I've ever had! They have many different flavors for whatever you're craving, and they always keep you coming back with new seasonal flavors. The gelato here always has perfectly balanced flavors and that smooth, creamy texture that you like for. The staff is always very kind and provides service with a smile every time and they also give out free samples if you want to try the flavors. It's located in an old hospital building right next to A Mano Panino, which is the best sandwich shop in all of Pensacola! I'm addicted.

    Hidden gem! The prices of their coffee are the best in town. I really appreciated this! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is decorated so nice[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and the ladies working were absolutely lovely. There was a decent sized line for gelato when we arrived and they didn't make us feel rushed. You have to check this place out! We rode our bikes from our air bnb down the street. & There's multiple restaurants and cool spots attached to this historical building. Such a great find!!

    Yum! Pretty good gelato, but what I really love was the set up of Lamonte. It's in a very unassuming building through a tiny doorway, but is decorated beautifully! The best part was the sweet wafer cone they put on top. Delicious to scoop the gelato with! I will probably get a cone vs. a cup next time so I can get more of that wafer. I would love to come back and try the coffee (they had a HUGE coffee menu / selection) and sandwich. It's definitely worth a try if you're nearby.

If there's one thing that teenage girls will always get excited for, it's ice cream, chocolate, and fudge. We saw the Kilwins and had to come in. Beautiful store. Crisp, white, bright, clean, goodies displayed everywhere. It was really hard picking out what you wanted from the hundreds of available treats. Service was great. Very friendly folks who knew a lot about their wares and helped guide me to what the best choice was for me. I got some sort of buckeye and a Dubai chocolate fudge or something. Whatever it was, it was absolutely delicious. High quality chocolate that melted in your hands if you didn't eat it fast enough. Presumably that means there were less preservatives in there. I can dig that. The visit it was quick, but it was lovely. Pensacola never used to have quality places like this, but I guess my little old hometown is growing up. I'm glad to see it.

If iced coffee is listed as an option, it would help if the staff were more familiar with how to prepare it. Our server had to come back and ask for clarification, and what I received felt more like a flavored iced coffee with a shot rather than a true iced double espresso. I also had to add my own cream, which made it seem like hot coffee might be more their specialty. The food itself was solid, though a bit on the pricey side. The scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, and toast were decent. The poached egg with salmon on grilled eggplant and arugula was tasty, and the home fries were a standout--unexpectedly excellent. Service was attentive and kind throughout, which I appreciated. However, the wait time after ordering was noticeably long, and there was a 3% convenience charge for using a debit card, which was noted on the receipt. I don't typically give less than 4 stars, but this feels like a place that could easily improve with some small adjustments.
