I really wanted to love this place, especially since I came in specifically for the espresso, but I left pretty disappointed with the coffee experience.
I ordered a small iced latte expecting what any latte around the world would have—an espresso shot. To my surprise, I was told that only the hot lattes come with espresso, which honestly makes no sense. I essentially got a cup of milk with a splash of cold brew, not what I came for at all. When I asked for an espresso shot to fix the drink, I had to pay extra, which brought my total to $8 for something I should’ve received in the first place. That felt frustrating and unfair.
That said—the gelato? Absolutely incredible. Rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Easily one of the best I’ve had in LA. Worth the trip for that alone.
If I can offer some feedback: please rethink how iced lattes are made here. When people come in expecting an espresso-based drink—especially with your Italian roots and branding—they’re expecting an espresso in their latte by default. If someone wants cold brew, they’ll usually ask for it. It’s a small change that could make a big difference in...
Read moreHonestly, love this little gelato shop. Bacio di Latte is still my favorite, but I would say that Capri is a close second. They also serve drinks and bakery items as well. It’s located on busy Lincoln Boulevard near the MDR and Culver West border. They have a small parking lot in back, but I was able to find a street spot for free right out front. The lady behind the counter was extremely polite and had one of the nicest smiles that I’ve seen in a long time. It’s quite small on the inside, they only have a few tables to eat in, but most people choose to order to go, which is what we decided to do. They have a lot of great flavor options and they rotate seasonally and weekly.
For my first visit, it took some time to decide what I wanted to order because there were a lot of great options. I finally decided on the Sea Salted Caramel and really liked it. It had great flavor and I would definitely order it again next time I stop by. I also want to try some of their coffee drinks as well. I would definitely recommend and plan to be back in the...
Read moreSince season 2 of White Lotus I've had this deep sadness about missing Italy a place I used to frequent. After living in the desert for the past couple of months, we've been far away from good ice cream et al. And Gelato wasn't even a consideration!
Discovering this place today met both my craving for something sweet and warm memories I needed of Italy. The staff was incredibly kind. They answered all of my questions, managed my probably overwhelming or annoying joy (LOL), they were patient with my son and patient with our dog.
They have a flavor, that has apparently won an award, and Im not the lease bit surprised because it is DIVINE!!! Passion fruit and goat cheese - everyone should have the privilege of trying this at least once in their life! I got the medium size so I could have 3 flavors. The others were milk chocolate and pistachio- which probably the best pistachio Gelato I've had since Italy.
The whole vibe in this place was magic much like I feel when I'm in Italy. Grateful we happened upon this...
