We ordered a mochaccino, Italian iced tea, and shared a slice of chocolate cannoli cake. We were warmly greeted when we arrived and service was great. Our drinks and cake were delicious.

Arrived in the afternoon during a busy weekend and decided to take out for desserts. My first visit and was underwhelmed by the service received. Rushed and transactional. Packaging was very sloppy and my napoleons were shoved to the side, making the clear clamshells very messy when I arrived home. If only the desserts were saving grace, but was left disappointed as well. As others have mentioned, the pastries do not taste fresh. The ricotta cream in the original cannoli tasted warm and gritty, the shell was stale. I noticed these were sitting out. The puff pastry in the Napoleons were soggy. The cream puffs shell was stale and chocolate topping was super sweet, unfortunately these were far from heavenly. Maybe another day, Vaccaro.

Fantastic Gelato made by a locally sourced dairy farm…read more My wife & I stayed at the hotel next door and stopped in for a late light treat. The gelato I noticed was very fresh and had a large selection of flavors. It seems like a neighborhood spot, inside was packed and outside people were sitting and enjoying their gelato. I'm staying in Baltimore for the week and after dinner I walked to Pitango Gelato for dessert. There are lots of fruit flavored but I was craving their hazelnut gelato made with imported Piedmontese hazelnuts. Heavenly! Those ladies scooped me up something that's free of artificial colors, flavors and preservatives. I mean, grass fed cows are providing the organic milk for this Baltimore staple. I'm just passing through town, I made a stop to try the best gelato in town.

I didn't order the black sesame flavor, but I tried it after placing my order, and I really liked it! If I had another chance, I'd definitely get this flavor. The staff is very nice, and the space is bright and cute! It's a great place to grab a cup while taking a walk around Fells Point, which is a beautiful harbor area in Baltimore.

The Dubai chocolate crepe here is to die for. I shared it with my girlfriend for desert, and my…read moreonly regret is not getting one for myself. We got here shortly before closing, and there was a long line at the self-checkout kiosk, but that was mostly due to people taking a while to figure out what they wanted to order. It also took some time for our crepe to be ready, but that mostly seemed to be the result of the store being understaffed and getting slammed shortly before closing.

The ice cream was also yummy. The night we came it seems to be a little slower than usually but that's probably because there were so many people. The shop looks so cute and quaint but there are a lot of dirty tables. Other than I think it's probably because it was just a bad night. Everything was good regardless

Jaydein's lovely personality infuses the whole place with his positive energy. He loves their cookies and gelato as much as I do and is still excited to suggest new flavours. Of course their Pignoli nut cookies are still my childhood favourite, but tonight we were wowed by the slim round Raisin Walnut Cookies located on the top shelf to the far right. I also love their Biscotti, my favourites being the pistachio and the one with dried cranberries. We ate a bunch in store to try them out and then bought another large box to go. This is a must stop if you love Italian cookies.

The shop itself inside isn't too big but there is also some tables set up outside for those who are willing to brave the weather depending on the season. Staff was helpful but not like overly friendly or anything like over the top. The store is cashless. They have soft serve, handmade hard ice cream, shakes, sundaes, flurries, and even an ice cream taco. They also have wayyyy too many flavors to chose from (a good problem to have). Every flavor we got was great with varying levels of intensity and richness so there is definitely y something for everyone. For the quality and quantity of ice cream you receive, I think the value is pretty good especially when compared to some of these franchise big name brands. When in Bmore, make sure to stop by for some licks!!

It was poppin'!…read moreThere were two lines going (one for inside and one for outside); we decided to go inside so we can sample (not sure if outside can sample too, first timers here). The line went by quickly and were able to sample and few flavors and got our ice cream(s!) in a reasonable time. There were a lot of staff and all of them are professional and polite. The ice cream shop is super cute and has great aesthetic for photo ops! Glad we stopped by during our trip and able to walk by all the cute vintage row homes neighborhood. As for the ice cream, they were one of the best homemade ice creams I have had. I got the strawberry cheesecake (hard ice cream) and vanilla malt (soft serve). The strawberry cheesecake was one of the best I've tried. The vanilla malt was a bit too sweet but taste great overall. They can also make any flavors into floats and milkshakes but I already personally ordered two ice cream so I didn't get those.

From around 20 flavors, we chose cookies & cream, with plenty of small cookie pieces, and one of their chocolatey ones. They also serve shakes, banana splits, sodas, ice cream floats, and water. We walked across the street to eat at one of many benches in Broadway Square. They have a fun bright décor, with cute cones on the wall behind the display, and a conga-type drum in a wildly colorful corner inside the Broadway entrance! We would like to see their current flavors posted online. But we Loved these cool treats! Perfect location while walking around Fells Point!

In fact while we were there they greeted every customer and said goodbye to every customer. Since we were first timers they went over all of their offerings. They had a variety of ice cream flavors in addition to soft serve (in addition to snow balls and food). My wife and oldest daughter got soft server (vanilla and chocolate), my youngest got strawberry cheese cake and I got black cherry. I really enjoyed mine as it was very rich and creamy. The ice cream was so good that there was very little sharing going on. I got a single scoop and I was a little surprised about how big the portion size was. The shop was decorated really nicely and had a cool vibe. Overall we had a really great experience and would highly recommend.

I ended up waiting a few minutes, but there were others in the back standing this whole time. I asked to try 2 flavors, and this person who had finally walked over said ok two scoops? I said no I'd like to try, they responded saying 1 sample per person (but it was the tone that turned me off). I tried the flavor I was most unsure about and moved on. They do give a good amount of ice-cream, and they said something about it being the only _____ dairy ice-cream in Baltimore. It was decent ice-cream but I dont need to go back. Otherwise seemed like a cool spot, with a few meal deals and specials.

Super kind and patient staff and I assume the owner too who we talked to that was super excited for us to try hers.

Toppings in the bowl include mochi, mango jelly, and mango cubes. On top is some mochi, mango slices, and a scoop of passion fruit sorbet. There is mango sauce and condensed milk throughout the bowl. The staff spent a lot of effort to make the bowl pretty and did a nice job of mixing the ingredients so that you don't have toppings on top only. The shop seems cute and there seems like there would be more things available when the owner is in. They have lunch boxes that look good. They also have takoyaki on the menu but the machine is currently down. One thing that I didn't like is that the item was different from the menu description. I was expecting mango snow and mango ice cream or sorbet. It's not the end of the world but I picked this one in particular because it was supposed to be mango snow. While the bingsoo is large enough to share, I also feel it is priced a bit high for what it is. Might be because there aren't many other laces like this in the area but bingsoo is usually bigger or less pricey. Overall, a decent stop for dessert if you want something a little different. Street parking was not that hard to find when we went.
