The Gelato Spot — Restaurant in Phoenix

Gelato is a really cool creature - it's silky smooth & kinda has the consistency of Italian Ice, only it's creamy too, like custard, despite having no eggs in it. They have their recipe up on the wall. They have fruit & creamy flavors, & SEVERAL DELICIOUS VEGAN OPTIONS as well - I've added scoops to my order, & yes, they're very yummers!! You're gonna spend a little over $12 for TWO people ordering a THREE SCOOP cup - so you get an idea of the price 😇 This shop is right on the corner of 40th St & Greenway - it's very easy to see from the road & has a Starbucks attached to it...PARK in the big parking lot, as you're also now in a mini shopping plaza...walk in through/around outdoor seating & through the doors. Yay!!! Sometimes this place is very crowded, but around night time closing, they're not!... Which is when I go. The floor is clean, the display case is too, the staff is very nice, happy, & bubbly, who will offer you samples, lots of samples if you just wanna try before you buy. There's fluffy chairs & tables w/ half "booth chairs" & then normal chairs - so several comfy places to chill. You can buy little scoop cups for here/to go, w/ cookies stuck in them & teensy neon colored plastic spoooooooons! Haha you can buy gelato cakes in the freezer where other desert/fancy things are, & bigger tubs/pints of gelato, too (those things are hella expensive - like Cold Stone Creamery prices - gelato is EXPENSIVE, but yummy & smooth!!!!) The bathroom is really really nice & I took pics, lol.

For an ice cream treat that's not dairy cream, lol TOTALLY I recommend The Gelato Spot!

UPDATE!! - 17JUN18 - Visited today, which was great cause Phoenix is waaaaaarrrrmmmm & humid! New flavor for curious & adventurous folk, CUCUMBER W/ LEMON! Omg it basically knocked the air outa my lungs! It's light, fluffy, heavily flavorful, refreshing, but also super weird & trippy. Gelato Spot is always experimenting & offering new flavors, from themselves or...

i came in today and the store was not opened at the time it says on the door. i ordered a milkshake and the drink was leaking out the cup as i was picking it up. i get in the car and put it in the cup holder and the cap comes off and spills in my car. i clean it up and drive to my location when i get there i take the cup out the holder, the whole cap comes off, and the drink spilled all over my car. I called the store and I spoke to the wonderful Celeste who has an attitude and tells me that it’s not her fault the cap wasn’t secured and also said it wasn’t her fault that the caps weren’t good. meanwhile, she was the one who made it and overfilled the cup not caring how it’s packaged thank god this wasn’t a hot drink. she than proceeded to hang up on me before I was done speaking right before saying she would issue me a refund let’s see how that goes 0 out of 10 stars. will not be returning. this was the was the first time it’s spilled before the whole entire drink spilled . Staff needs to...

This is our favorite place to eat lunch or dinner. My guy is picky about his pizza and I'm the same with salad. The Gelato Spot nails both of these for us. The quality and flavor is always the same and the service is wonderful. Shout out to Mario and May who always make us feel like their favorite guests. The place is clean and comfortable and the gelato is great and made on location. They also have gluten free pizza dough and a sugar free chocolate gelato, both of which are super yummy. My go to order: Focaccia Chop Salad with chicken. I request it be super chopped on gluten free bread... the champagne vinaigrette is also made in house and is the best dressing I've ever had... they should bottle it and sell it. ...
