Oggi Gelato Norwalk — Restaurant in Norwalk

Discriminating and rude. Excited to try as it was new. The gelato is pretty good however that does not take away the bitter taste of discrimination that their employees left. Being first time customers we asked if we could try their most popular flavor before purchasing. The girl helping us said there is no sampling allowed while 2 of her fellow coworkers are handing out multiple samples to customers. We didn’t say anything about it at first but it seemed weird. After we checked out and sat to eat our gelato, we saw the same girl hand out samples to multiple customers. I went back to say something and while a gentleman tried to apologize, an older woman with black hair and an accent rudely jumped in and said “can I explain something to you” and proceeded to tell me that they don’t give samples on Saturdays while employees were actively giving out samples… When I pointed out that same employee and others are currently giving out samples, she had nothing to say. Didn’t even have the decency to apologize. It’s not even about the sample, I can pay for a cup of gelato. It’s about equality and decency which they lack. Beyond disappointed, and would not recommend this place if you are any skin color...

I’m so happy Oggi Gelato chose to open their first U.S. location in Norwalk! This is by far the most authentic Italian gelato I’ve ever had in Connecticut! We went the day after their grand opening, and though they were sold out of a few flavors from the success of their event, they were working hard to create fresh batches for the day. We loved how fresh the flavors were, and it’s easy to tell that they use real fruit and high quality dairy in their products! I had the strawberry cheesecake, and my fiancé had the stracciatella in brioche made by one of our favorite local Italian bakers - I’m so glad that they found each other, because it’s a powerhouse of an Italian duo. We also tried a small cup of their peanut butter flavor, and it was so fresh and nutty compared to American peanut butter flavors! They have fresh chocolate on tap, and you’ll definitely want that inside the cone or as a topping! The prices are so reasonable for the quality you get here, and the staff is so passionate about their product. The gelateria is beautiful inside, and there’s also a few tables to enjoy outside. I already can’t wait...

Very tasty ice cream in a cute, small cup with mini spoons. I had the Italian coffee chocolate chip stretcha vanilla bean flavor. It was very calm, creamy, and was a nice neutral base flavor that you could probably add some type of sweet ingredient to of your liking. The tall gentleman behind the counter was cooking the ice cream and he was nice enough to give me the story behind the Italian version of vanilla ice cream. Nice store inside and the Italian techno house music was very lively. I noticed the menu on the wall was in the Italian language. I found that a bit confusing. Would it be possible for you to include English translations next to the Italian words? Or, have the English translations on a chalk board of sorts when you enter your storefront that way the line will move quicker so people can make a decision on the flavors of ice cream before you get to the ordering station? Also, will you ever have a toppings bar like in the frozen yogurt stores with American and possible Italyan candies? Vespa parking outside was authentic and a great experience overall. Highly...
