This was my 3rd time to this ice cream shop. I’ve always enjoyed it, but tonight I feel obliged to make a review as the guy serving me was exceptionally rude, which I have never experienced in an ice cream shop before. I work in a restaurant, and there is a standard of etiquette with which we treat our customers. The guy was extremely short with me and rude to begin with, and when I ask for a third sample, after having prepaid, with no one in line behind me, the guy told me this is not a tasting bar.

He has calibrated the temperature perfectly and his generous portion are sure to make you move up a pants size. If you have a passion for great gelato you must come here. Better yet move to Gracia so you can have...
