Vinci Authentic Gelato consistently delivers a delightful experience, and my recent visit, featuring their Salted Caramel, Cinnamon Biscoff, and Cioccolato Fondente, was no exception. Each scoop was a testament to their commitment to rich, genuine flavors and creamy textures.
The Salted Caramel was an absolute masterclass. It struck that perfect balance between sweet and savory, with the subtle saltiness elevating the deep, caramelized sugar notes without ever becoming overwhelming. The texture was impeccably smooth and luxurious, a hallmark of true gelato. If you're a fan of classic combinations done right, this is a must-try.
Next, the Cinnamon Biscoff was a revelation. It offered a comforting warmth from the cinnamon, perfectly complemented by the distinct, biscuity crunch and flavor of Biscoff cookies. This isn't just cinnamon-flavored gelato; it truly captures the essence of the beloved cookie, making it an incredibly satisfying and unique option for those seeking something a little different.
Finally, for the dark chocolate purists, the Cioccolato Fondente was a dream come true. This flavor is intense, rich, and wonderfully bittersweet, showcasing the high quality of cocoa they use. It's not overly sweet, allowing the deep, complex chocolate notes to truly shine. The texture was, once again, flawlessly smooth and decadent, making each spoonful a truly indulgent experience.
Vinci Authentic Gelato continues to impress with their dedication to authentic Italian gelato. Whether you're craving a timeless classic like Salted Caramel, an innovative delight like Cinnamon Biscoff, or a robust and refined Cioccolato Fondente, you're in for a treat. Their commitment to quality ingredients and traditional techniques is evident in every delicious bite. Highly...
Read moremy family and i take gelato seriously, almost religiously. and we only eat the good stuff. after lots of research and trial and error, i feel qualified to leave this review.
first off, i the pistaccio was the right shade of green, a nice earthy pale green, almost beige as it should be (aka no artificial dyes/flavors). no chunks of pistaccio too, which is excellent. I tried the raspberry, the flavor was good, but way too sweet.
i ordered hazelnut and the sweet cream. the hazelnut is good, although could be much stronger. overly-sweet, but not so sweet as to ruin it. i do not recommend the sweet cream at all. im not sure where they went wrong, but ive never tasted that flavor. there were gelatinous chunks in it, so hopefully it was just a poor batch.
overall: good gelato, authentic flavor and a nice balance between traditional italian gelato (no sugar added) and the american palette.
however, it lacks the charm of the italian gelateria. atmosphere leaves much to be desired, but its an uphill battle given the architecture. this is manageable, as apart of the gelato experience is eating it while walking around. sitting in there for too long would be soul crushing. that combined with the sugary-after taste left in my mouth, i would kms.
i would not go there on a date, the atmosphere is ghastly. but i would go there with friends or family.

One taste of the Brown Butter will send all your cares right out the window -- you'll feel free! Free from worry, from care, free from problems that are weighing you down or pushing your already too small waist pants out. All of your issues will melt away as the smooth, authentic taste of this Gelato goodness tells your taste buds that you are enough and that everyone else is the problem, not you. You think this review is hyperbole? Well its not. Before I had Vinci Gelato, I used to be loosing my hair. And now after I've tasted all the flavors and purchased a pint to take home -- I'm still loosing my hair, but I feel soooo much better about it. Listen... here is the real truth, the facts. This place has Great Gelato. It slaps, smacks, its fire, in fact - its straight-fire. But not really, because it's actually cold ice cream but instead its Gelato. And there's a difference. Do you know what that difference is?? Me either. But my taste buds do, and they are trustworthy. So what are you waiting for? An invitation? Good, then here's one - I formally invite you to get over to Vinci and try some amazing Gelato....
