The piles of gelato can be seen through the window, calling you inside. The menu has a few staples and a few seasonal items. They forage for the seasonal ingredients or work directly with local farms, we love supporting small local businesses! They also have a dairy free menu, so lots of options for everyone. Everything I've tried has been exceptional and super flavorful. You can really taste the flavor, even something as subtle as blueberry. They often have combinations of fruits and herbs which are fun to try. Despite loving everything I've tried, I get the same thing every time. I get chocolate and hazelnut, the perfect combination. The chocolate is dark and rich, but not too sweet. The hazelnut is nutty perfection (and I'm not really a nut person). The combo is absolutely divine - think nutella or baci. You really truly can't go wrong here, we are so lucky to have this in our city!

It's the end of July and a stack of April's issue of Portland Monthly's still in the window, so I…read morekind of figured they were closed. I just hoped that wasn't the case. Change comes for us all, and just because I can remember a time when Esparza's still made chile rellenos on the corner of Ankeny, Tapalaya served up nachos etouffee, Montelupo was a dive bar without a name (some called it Red Flag), Fonda Rosa was the lone margarita place, and the only pizza shop handing out slices was a Pizzacato next to Starbucks that was never open after Chopsticks karaoke, that doesn't mean it all had to stay that way. But I was convinced the families would keep Staccato Gelato around forever. Personally, I loved having a place to come after a movie or dinner where I could pair scoops (was really liking a stracciatella/pistachio combo, with birthday cake/cookies and cream a close second), get an espresso without waiting in line (even City State backs up a bit), or sample the most underrated little donut in town--the star of the coffee beer & donut festival each February. But this one wasn't about me. This was about the families who came here after school or events and made the place feel like its own corner of the neighborhood. It was groups of parents who had a place to corral kids for a bit, packs of pre-teens and teenagers learning to navigate neighborhood stores... and a ton of people running into each other when they were back from various trips during spring, summer, and holiday break. It was a lovely little community, and I'm sure losing that had to hurt. I thank the owners for giving this corner of Portland a decent third place to call its own. We'll get coffee and gelato again, but you gave people a cozy little home that's going to be hard to replicate.

As much as I like their gelato they are so darn unpredictable when it comes to openings.

They should be open according to yelp from noon to 10pm, I was here yesterday at 2pm and today at 3pm. Closed! And that is also stupid since the fifty licks store just a couple blocks down closed for good. Means if they are smart with advertising they could get those customer. Well for that you would need a reliable time frame to be open so that even regular customer not scrapping their nose on your windows. Disappointed so much I'll take two stars off from my regular five star rating for them.

But it was different today. We had some extra minutes on my parking meter, so we walked a block down here to get some gelatos! Let me tell you, I am quite surprised on how cute and spacious this place was. I had imagined it to be a small shop for grab and go ice cream. To my surprise, there were plenty of tables and chairs available for you to just chill and hang out with your group of friends. Nice! The two flavors we ended up with were dulce de leche and salted chocolate (kid size - 2 flavors $5.50, regular size - 3 flavors $6.50). There were many other flavors that we tried such as the brownie and coffee, Mayan chocolate, salted vanilla, matcha, etc. They have rotating seasonal flavors as well, but I can't remember what they were. The gelato was very tasty and smooth. We liked it a lot and spent about 15 minutes in there hanging out. Service was good too; she was super patient with us while we took our time to decide what flavor we wanted and then we asked for a handful of samples before deciding. If we were around the area, we would consider coming back here. Parking is still very discouraging. A good place to stop by after a meal. ! Feels like price is a little high for the kid's size, but then again, it's gelato. I also liked that this place was quiet and there were no lines.
