Waka Waka Gelato — Restaurant in Petaling Jaya

Best best gelato in PJ 😉🤌🏻

A frequent visitor of the shop and have tried most of their flavours !!

Please come out with more unique flavours as I find dragonfruit mango sorbet soooo satisfying!

Their pistachio, chocolate chunks and Biscoff are three best sellers as well

Came at a dessert timing (7pm) and there were a very long queue. Thought it would be fast as I come quite often before. There were two new faces serving the ice cream and one of the male worker were very very slow in both responding to customer, scooping ice cream, or working at the cashier. It was so slow, majority of the customer waiting were annoyed including me and 6 of them left. I was asking one of the female worker to help with the line as she was making new batch of ice cream while watching 13 customer waiting.

This visit was so horrible, I wasn’t able to enjoy my ice cream, I don’t even want to try any new flavours because that would hold up the line even more. The new male worker were very very inexperienced and could tell that he did not have proper training prior to working the shift.

He was confused on how to fix two flavours in one cup, sp he would take almost 5 mins to finish a cup, kept fixing the “spilled out ice cream”into the cup or back into the tub… it was very unhygienic and I saw that it got onto his hands and continued to scoop that part of ice cream into the tub…. I was quite speechless in fact everyone isn’t the shop saw because of how slow he was.

when it was my turn, I was waiting for him to “perfecting” the ice cream, and he was very lost and asked me “ anything you want?” I was like … “ for my ice cream that you’re holding?”

Hmm not sure if he was tired or anything but he clearly wasn’t trained for working...

A Hidden Gem for Gelato Lovers! 🍨✨

A gelato shop that serves their flavors in two ways—one from a standard freezer display and another from traditional steel barrels (pozzetti-style storage). Let me tell you, the difference is night and day!

The gelato from the steel barrels was unbelievably smooth, creamy, and full of rich, deep flavors. It felt fresher and had a perfect consistency—almost like it was freshly churned right before serving. The texture was velvety, and the flavors were well-balanced, not overly sweet or artificial. Every spoonful melted beautifully on my tongue, making it a truly indulgent experience.

On the other hand, the freezer-displayed gelato from the same shop was decent but just didn’t hit the same. It felt a little firmer, slightly icy at times, and lacked the same depth of flavor. It’s still good, but when you’ve tasted the steel-barrel version, you can immediately tell which one is superior.

If you visit, definitely go for the gelato from the steel barrels! It’s worth it, and you’ll understand why traditional storage methods make such a difference in taste and texture. Highly recommended!

⭐ 5/5 for the steel-barrel gelato! ⭐ 3.5/5 for the freezer gelato.

This is my 2nd time trying already, will comeback to try more flavors in the future. Oh by the way, I took pistachio flavor and it melted in...

Came by on a Tuesday after some time. There was 2 parties ahead of us, a couple & a group of 5. I remember while looking for parking it was the same 2 parties. Took quite a while just to serve the couple.

There were 2 ppl behind the counter, a guy and a girl. Girl was doing OK but guy seemed to be struggling quite a lot. Seemed a bit blur and messed up while scooping the ice cream. The group of 5 eventually left (thankfully) so I don't have to wait 30 mins for my ice cream. Would probably drop to 2 stars if the group of 5 were still there.

Hope they improve on this front. Probably needs more training. It's just a regular Tuesday, can't imagine a packed weekend. Finally got to try out waka waka after eyeing it for so long. Came here on a random Wednesday evening and it was quite quiet. Deserves more customers for the value of the ice cream!!

Their flavours are different from the usual. No fuss, just RM 8 for 1 scoop and RM 13 for 2. Consistency wise, was expecting a little more... idk how to describe it 😅 and it could be a little less sweet for me. Anywho, portion was amazing and value is definitely there. Would definitely come back to try their...
