    Cute, clean shop
    Scott N.

    The Gelato Spot is right next to and also accessible directly from Hyde Park. We decided we needed gelato while we were eating our pizza. According to a sign in the store, the gelato is made in house, which is cool. There were lots of unique flavors and I should have taken a picture of the case, but alas I did not. They offered samples and Mark sampled the Lemon Pie (or a similar name) and loved it. He ordered two scoops - one lemon and one coffee. I tried both and WOW, the lemon was fantastic! I ordered one scoop of Tiramisu, which included alcohol. I almost passed on it because we don't drink, but I figured it couldn't be any stronger than 'near beer'. I'm glad I got the Tiramisu. It was delicious. I would never suspect there was alcohol in it. Because we would be heading home after, we decided to have a seat and eat it in the shop, which is very clean and cute. There are three two-seat tables in the shop (it's small), so be aware. There are a few tables out front. There's nothing not to like here. I want to try every flavor! It was absolutely delicious!

    Cool little spot we stumbled across while having dinner a few doors down. Lots of gelato offerings and espresso. Pretty long line when we walked in and it moved rather quickly with the staff in attendance. Great gelato and will be back soon for more

    We were next door and decided to get Gelato and it was delicious! There were good flavors and coffee! We got chocolate orange, mint chocolate, and dreamsicle. All the flavors looked delicious though.

    Came here after dinner at Hyde (owners of Nobi, the Gelato, and Hyde all the same). Walked right in from the inside of Hyde. I loved their spin on Asian flavored gelato instead of typical Italian. Just look at the flavors! Service - was great. It ebbs and flows with a lot of customers, or none at all. When we dropped in, after dinner, we were alone. Friendly lady at the counter let us try a lot of flavors (thank you, kind lady!). I tried the Ube (not too sweet) , chocolate (very rich) , and Happy Accident (very peanut buttery). I settled on the Black Sesame, very savory. We sat and enjoyed our small cups, which was just enough for after dinner, on their couches, that they have. Overall, solid!

    Second time here and it's still delicious gelato! Not all of their fruit gelato's are fresh like the fig mascarpone. It has a fig preserve which made it too sweet for my liking. My only complaint is they shut off the cappuccino machine at 9 but they stay open until 11. Their excuse was because it takes a while to decompress. I ordered a scoop of Ube and a scoop of Black Bear (Vietnamese iced coffee). Both were a delight.

    Why 5 stars? Because the flavors here are ridiculous. --- --- --- After a spicy meal, I generally crave ice cream to cool down my esophagus. Is that good science? I don't know, but it usually makes me seem to feel better, so I'm gonna continue rolling with it. I heavily debated where to go, but eventually opted to visit The Gelato Spot, despite it not being in the most convenient location for where we were at the time. I pulled up to see that it was next to Nobi and later found out it was owned by them. They have some amazing flavors and it totally makes sense that it's a Nobi joint because of choices like taro, ube, pandan, etc. I went with a cone of pandan birthday cake and taro and it was everything I hoped it would be. Heaven on a cone. What's really wild is that with those two flavors being options, I wouldn't think anything would even be within consideration because I love both of those things so much. But to be honest, shame was standing in my way of asking for more samples, because I legitimately wanted to try just about every flavor in the case. With family I often visit nearby, I definitely plan on making a return visit or three in the future to make my way through all the flavors!

    We first went to this spot when they had first opened, and the two of us were satisfied with the texture and flavor of the gelato. The owners and staff were very open to suggestions, whether it was flavor ideas, what was missing, or where to improve. Needless to say, we asked for an Ube flavor and whether or not it was in the works.. they listened and rolled it out shortly after! It exceeded my expectations and I had to take home a pint (~$12.00). I'm very excited to see what other flavors they add to their menu and I hope the Ube is here to stay. Staff: Really friendly and accommodating Gelato quality: Superb Environment: Calm, good music choice

    Not very good. The flavors are very dull and the sorbet was super grainy. Would not come back.

    Shops with a French interior design and decor will always have a special place in my hear. So it…read morewas no surprise that I was absolutely charmed by this shop. The decor is a lovely light mint green on the walls, with sparse but cute French curios. The area is spacious and tidy, with plenty of room to look at the well organized gelato flavors and rows of never ending macaron flavors. The employee at the counter was also one of the friendliest and most helpful people I have encountered in a while. She immediately asked if we would like samples, which was a pleasant surprise. And the actual desserts-PERFECTION. I love macarons, and am therefore a rather critic. The macarons are sold in singles and various sized boxes. I bought a box of 6, red velvet, lemon, strawberry, milk chocolate x2 and biscoff. The biscuit was light and chewy, while the interior was luscious and packed an accurate flavor punch. The Ferrero macaron gelato was a wonder. Somehow this macaron incorporated into the gelato retained their consistency and texture. Overall, a great experience and one I will be recreating!

    They were out of pistachio flavored unfortunately for me. But we were able to try their Birthday…read moreCake and Blueberry macarons. They were pretty good and sweet. They have a variety of flavors and a variety of ice cream too. We sampled a few and they were good. I also liked that they could design the macarons too. That would be great for parties and celebrations.
