I usually go for a mix of flavors and it's always fresh and flavorful without being overly sweet. The rose-shaped gelato is cute, but honestly it's the taste that keeps me coming back. Price is a bit on the higher side, but worth it for a treat. The staff is always nice and patient even when there's a line. Parking can be a little annoying depending on the time, but I've usually managed fine. Definitely one of my favorite dessert spots in Tampa.

Even better is that they have chocolate hazelnut, and I'm always on the lookout for anything hazelnut, which seems to be something of rarity outside of Europe. Suffice to say, Amorino's gelato did not disappoint! Smooth, creamy, refreshing, with that distinct hazelnut flavor mixed with the bold complex taste of their coffee gelato (i got two flavors in one cup). The girls behind the counter were very nice and helpful and managed to swipe my card since I'm not able to pay via app??!! (you have to order and pay via kiosk) and it was overall not a problem. They have cute little outside tables that are shaded to give you more of that European sidewalk cafe feel. My ONE regret was getting a cup that was maybe a tad too small. I can't remember if I can size up, if so, I'm getting a bigger cup.

Terrific place for gifts!…read more I got an email from Yelp recently, telling me about places I should go visit. I saw this Chocolatier in Carrollwood and knew I needed to visit. Located on N Dale Mabry, in the same plaza as Burger 21, Peterbrook Chocolatier is open most days until 8 or 9 PM (except Sundays). This is very convenient for a busy person like myself. I rolled in around 7 last night, and was warmly greeted by Pam. I told her I was looking to get some gifts to show appreciation for some folks and she showed me the most popular items, and then gave me freedom to wander and collect. These folks cover so many things is chocolate. Potato chips, Oreos, Graham crackers, espresso beans, malt balls, raisins, gummy bears, toffee and so much more. They have a very large selection of ready to go baskets full of goodies for Valentine's Day, or you can have one custom made with treats you know your sweetheart will adore. They also have a case of beautiful chocolates you can have boxed (they have heart ones for the holiday!) and Gelato for a yummy snack. I bought a few extra things for myself, and I must say, the chocolate is delightful. I tried the dark chocolate covered candied oranges and they were fantastic. Highly recommend visiting this place for a tasty treat for yourself or someone else.

Paciugo is very much a "walk around Beach Drive with a gelato and suddenly life feels cinematic"…read morekind of place. The second the Florida heat becomes unbearable, this is where everyone ends up. And honestly? Valid. The gelato is actually good, not just cute-for-Instagram good. The pistachio and dark chocolate flavors deserve their loyal fanbase, but the real danger is the free samples because suddenly I'm standing there trying seven flavors like I'm a professional gelato critic. The vibe is peak St. Pete at night. People walking by with their dogs, couples on dates, groups lingering outside way longer than planned. It somehow feels both lively and weirdly relaxing at the same time. Also an affogato here after dinner just feels like good decision making.

Even with how busy it was, the staff kept things moving and the wait was well worth it. We tried the coffee gelato and it was absolutely incredible. The flavor was rich, creamy, and tasted like real coffee without being too sweet. Every bite was delicious. The prices are a little on the higher side, but I love supporting local businesses, so it is worth it to me. The quality speaks for itself, and I can see why this place stays so busy. I will definitely be back to try more flavors.
