UPDATE 4.29.25- Not sure they will ever do anything about the weird parking but if you come through the back way off of 7th Ave then you can maneuver better. Always delicious flavors. Avoid peak hours and never will I attempt the drive thu lol.
UPDATE 3/26/22- Still busy and parking lot always scary! The drive thru seems to move extremely slow. The outside order line moves a lot quicker even when packed. I still enjoy visiting this place bc they do have delicious gelati and Italian ice, However we do not go during peak hours because outside a mess. Only main issue here is parking. Great new hot spot on manatee Ave west! Prices are reasonable and everything is super tasty! The only issue with this is the location... they are in what used to be a bank and so the drive thru and parking areas(used to be one ways) are very difficult to navigate. My advice is to use 26th st w to turn into the parking area(not the drive thru) or You have to turn south onto 26th st w off of manatee Ave and then make a left to enter although there are still signs that show "DO NOT ENTER" which makes it very confusing because it is the only way to enter to park and walk up! Since it is new is is usually fairly busy, especially...
Read moreWe finally visited this place looking for a sweet treat after dinner. We think we stumbled upon our go-to gelato/ice cream/Italian ice joint in the area! When you first pull up, you can either go through their drive thru or walk up to a counter to order. We immediately noticed how busy the place was. We ordered at the counter, and were immediately offered any free samples we wanted. This was a bonus because admittedly, some of the flavors were hit or miss to us. One of their well-known specialties is mixing ice cream (vanilla, chocolate or swirl) with gelato (choose from a number of flavors). We finally ordered a mango/vanilla combo and an orange smash/vanilla combo. They were both delicious, generously portioned, and not overly too sweet. We definitely weren’t able to finish our orders, but will be consuming it further over the next couple of days. We can’t wait to go back and try other flavors and...
Read moreI absolutely LOVE their pumpkin pie gelati, but this time I got their seasonal (March only) key lime pie. It was delicious! The perfect blend of sour and sweet, lime and coconut, with a crunchy cookie "crust" mixed through. I get a medium and eat half of it then put it in the freezer to finish it later. It's almost as good left over. You just need to let it sit a couple of minutes to soften back up. The cookies stay crunchy and the ice and custard are still delicious.
Addition: They now have these #FrogSquadFlavorites which includes delicious combinations like Mud Pie, Strawberry Shortcake, S'mores, and Peanut Butter and Jelly. They are downright delicious. I think there are 9 of them? I'll have tried all of them by the end of the summer. So far I've tried: Mud Pie ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Strawberry Shortcake ⭐⭐⭐ Peanut Butter...
