Gelateria Gentile - West Village — Restaurant in New York

I went to get an ice cream for me and for the child I am watching excitingly yesterday around 3pm-3:15pm when the lady in the counter was out of the blue so obnoxious towards me. The lady that was in front of me motioned me to go ahead since she was not decided what flavor to get yet. I stooped to looked at the flavors since I am not using my eye glasses instead I was using sunglasses since it was like 80 degrees. I am just so sad since we loved the ice cream shop and it is just close to my employer’s house. So sad that out beautiful day was ruined by a bad attitude of the salesperson!!! I would like to get the attention of the owner of this shop since this person does not belong to this great shop. Please if you have a camera please check. I can’t believe there still people with that kind of attitude towards their customers. There were more exchanged of our conversations that does not need to be publicly announced! I am so disappointed… Hopefully the owner will look into this employee. I will come back tomorrow since I forgot to take a photo of this woman. She also closed the store after I left, that too I was surprised since there are people lining up outside…. ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

I could have rated it 5 star but I ended up throwing the ice cream! I am just...

Among best Gelato in NYC, perfect temperature, density, not too high in sugar, dark chocolate, hazelnut, pistacchio, etc all delicious. Update 6/20/2022, fiordilatte (milk cream) was too sweet / high in sugar, the nocciola (hazelnut) was perfect, and the fondente (vegan dark chocolate) was also perfect and had a nice flavorful bitterness to it and lower in sugar. The yogurt is among the lowest in sugar and an amazing flavor and the best gelato flavor anywhere. Pistachio is the 4th of my favorites. Some of the other flavors are too sweet. Gelateria Gentile use local fresh milk, and other ingredients are from Italy and very fresh and high quality. The staff are very friendly and helpful and professional and will work with you to take home your ice cream cone or scoops in your own zero-waste container ! 3/20/2023, Monday: I had a larger cone of fondente (85% dark chocolate) and vegan nocciola (hazelnut), and the portion was a bit small compared to Venchi, but the flavors were delicious with the bitter and sweetness of the almost black dark chocolate, and the extra nutty flavor of the hazlenut beyond what you find in the traditional whole milk based hazelnut gelato. Pictures from today below of the hazelnut and...

During my recent visit to Gentile Gelateria, I indulged in their exquisite offerings, beginning with their delectable brioche bun paired with almond-flavored gelato. The experience was nothing short of exceptional; the gelato exhibited a remarkable creaminess, with prominent notes of almond that melded seamlessly into a smooth texture, delivering a delightful and nutty sensation with every bite.

Equally captivating was their dark chocolate gelato, which stands as a personal favorite. Its rich and intense flavor profile, coupled with a luxuriously smooth texture, left an enduring impression.

Additionally, I savored the pistachio tartufo, a decadent treat bursting with flavor. This delicacy showcased a harmonious blend of chocolate, pistachio, and coconut, resulting in a truly indulgent experience that left me thoroughly satisfied and enamored with its richness and complexity.

Overall, my visit to Gentile Gelateria was a culinary delight, marked by exceptional flavors and impeccable quality that truly surpassed...
