SF Gelateria — Restaurant in Redwood City

SF Gelateria – A Sweet Little Scoop of Simplicity

Tucked between the buzz of Broadway, SF Gelateria is one of those spots that feels like it belongs in a quiet European side street—small, charming, and filled with the kind of soft-spoken joy only fresh gelato can deliver.

After dinner nearby, my partner and I wandered in for a post-meal treat and were instantly greeted with warm hospitality and a counter full of colorful temptations. We sampled the Honey Lavender (a bit too sweet for me, though floral fans might love it) and the Rose Saffron, which had a nice mellow finish. But in the end, I went with my heart: Ube and Chocolate. A classic combo with just enough flair to keep it interesting. And honestly, sometimes sticking to the basics is the right move. If it ain’t broke, don’t over-scoop it.

They also have pints ready to grab-and-go, which is dangerously convenient. Whether you’re catching the last of the downtown liveliness or grabbing dessert on your way home, this place makes it easy to indulge without overthinking it.

Final scoop: Clean flavors, kind service, and just the right amount of creativity. SF Gelateria knows what it’s doing—and it’s...

SF Gelateria catered my baby shower on a hot hot day (95 degrees!) and the gelato was a huge hit. Shiao-Ying, the owner, was so easy to coordinate with and thankfully so flexible when I asked to push the start time back to beat the heat. It was a hectic day and I really appreciated how the gelato cart and girl (sorry I didn't catch her name!) showed up on time, set up, and immediately started scooping. She was so patient and so friendly despite being kept super busy, in the heat, for two hours. Hojicha flavor was the star but really, you can't go wrong with any of their flavors. Highly recommend booking their gelato cart for any event, everyone from kids to adults to...

I would trade my three wishes with a genie just for a scoop of their pistachio gelato.

My wife and I have laid destructive despair upon a pint of it at home with no self-control or restriction. Like a nature documentary scene narrated by David Attenborough where hyenas destroy their prey, but its my wife and I huddled around a pint of SF Gelateria Pistachio like twin Gollums from lord of the rings.

The disappointment felt from settling for the competition they have, which if we're being honest is safeway late at night, is truly at the depths of despair and brings nothing but sadness and longing for our true love......
