My boyfriend and I stopped here to get some Gelato for my birthday while visiting Venice. It's a little street shop along the road. It was near our hotel and had a good variety of flavors so we decided to give it a go. There isn't any seating, so we took ours over to the base of the bridge and sat on the steps by the water. This was our first Gelato experience and I must say I was tickled pink! So yummy! We both decided to get ours in cups, although there is an option to get it in a cone. We got the three scoop option, but there were smaller sizes available if wanted. Naturally, I got three different flavors (gotta take advantage of the three scoops!) - a dark chocolate, mint chip, and a cream/orange flavor that tasted just like a creamsicle. I knew I'd like the chocolate and mint regardless, but wasn't so sure about the orange flavored one. It certainly did not disappoint! My boyfriend was not as adventurous as I however, and just got a chocolate/nutella flavor. He said it was super good though. I think we both ate ours in a matter of minutes. Cost is based on size. I think it was 5 euros for each? Worth it!
I am writing this review post trip. I made it a goal to try Gelato in each area I visited during this vacation including Venice, Florence, and Rome. I'd honestly have to say this Gelato stand is a gem and takes the number one spot. Definitely don't miss out! -

This is by far the most incredible gelato I have ever tasted. It was so good that me and my three grandchildren at at it three times in one day! The dark chocolate, oh my god, I could just eat it every day for the rest of my life. My grandchildren had the chocolate chip, the lemon and the coconut and couldn't get enough (as well as the dark chocolate)! I also had the pistachio and it was just as amazing!
This is most definitely a five-star establishment, but a certain rude employee brought it down. For the first four times I went there (3 in one day!) the man working allowed me to pay for two of the larger cups (2-2 scoops) instead of four small ones. It saved me almost a Euro which was very nice of him. When I went back the fifth time I was charged individually even after telling the person how I was charged before. He was rude and unhelpful and wouldn't allow me to do that same thing and I didn't go back after that, unfortunately.
I hope that you won't let one crappy employee keep you from enjoying this treasure, I just couldn't bring myself to go back after that kind of service. -

This place had cheaper gelato than the other ones I tried, and it was good for the price! Who can ever complain about gelato? In sum, I wasn't disappointed. It had all the flavors I wanted and nice service.

Inexpensive with a large variety of flavors - I'm in love with marron glaces and crema de Venezia. Definitely worth dropping in and they saved my night after the terrible dinner I just had. Thank you, Gelateria il Golosone.
