Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Best gelato. Made there and you can totally tell the difference. The owner is very nice. Best crema flavor I had in Italy. Oh and the view can’t be beat. Best in Riomaggiore."
"This gelataria has some gelato flavors. Rightly prices. Right next to great views of the Cinque Terre. What else do you need. Enjoy this place and great flavors."
"Best gelato I had in Italy!! The pistachio was creamy, tasty, and just perfect! Wish they were open later in the night so I could have had more after dinner."
"best gelato in cinque terre!!! so unassuming but seriously so good the strawberry was magnificent - sooo creamy and smooth and just perfect"
"We went as a group and tried nine flavors between us. Every one was outstanding and tasted like the fresh real ingredient (melon, strawberry, lemon, etc). The creamy flavors were delicious as well. Even the Nutella flavor wasn't too heavy. The only downside was that it's a small place on a narrow popular street, and there are very few places to sit nearby. The view is spectacular though (pictured)."
"Great little shop. We ate here a couple of times during our visit. Plan your time around sunset, great view and dessert."
"Not sure why the reviews aren’t higher - classic flavours with great flavour! I got pistachio and milk and they complemented each other so well. The price is 3 euros for a small cup, with 2 flavours, which is super reasonably priced. The shop is along the stairs by the marina :)"
"Very nice gelato, lemon is deliciously sour. The melon and pistachio are also very good. Highly recommend. So good I had to get a second cup!"
