São Gelados — Local services in Olhão

Great tasting ice creams and a large selection of flavors both with and without milk. The portion size is good. The ice cream is stored in metal cylinders, which means they come out very cold and don’t start melting immediately. Of course you can’t see the ice cream flavors but I would rather have it that way. One of us selected the plum and the raspberry scoops, both were full of fruit flavor with the plum being exceptionally good. The other went for the chocolate and the caramel. These were very creamy. The menu is only in Portuguese so you need to do some translation. There are a limited number of outside chairs and tables. It gets busy in the...

As someone with a sweet tooth, I take my ice cream seriously, and let me tell you, this place exceeded all expectations. The best ice cream I've ever had, hands down.

I've had some incredible gelato in Italy, Genoa to be exact, and now I can add this gem to the list.

Owned by a French and an Italian duo, the flavors here are out of this world. The strawberry is a revelation, and the cream is equally divine.

What sets this place apart is the perfect balance of flavors—never too sweet or overwhelming.

Located in a quaint little alley, it's the perfect spot for a sweet stop.

Highly recommended!

I returned for another one...

A little bit underwhelming but lots of potential. I have had a lot of artisanal or gourmet gelato, including elsewhere in Portugal and places like Mexico, and unfortunately, this just does not stack up, especially for the price.

The flavours were sort of watery and lacking. Maybe it was the choice of flavours I asked for and others are better.

Don't get me wrong, it's still good. I just wasn't blown away and would hope for the price for one tiny scoop, it would make me go wow! It didn't.

Owner was very informative and friendly so I will try again next time...
