JuliaJuly 10, 2016Love their lychee, pistachios and hazelnut flavor. Best gelato place in the area. Clean.
They have a loyalty card - buy 7 cups of gelato and get one free! Good quality stuff - much closer to what you get in Italy than that other gelato shop in town.
Derrick YuNovember 19, 2015The flavors are unique and change every time I visit. It's impossible to resist the offer of the included chocolate-dipped wafer.
Smilla SaxbergSeptember 4, 2018Their Ice cream is very good especially their pistachio and and hazelnut. A very clean store too and really friendly staff.
GelataioAugust 11, 2014Amazing almond-milk vegan hazelnut. Peach and fig sorbettos round out the vegan selection. Yum!
Andrea CampiNovember 5, 2016Pretty nice actually! By far *the* ice cream place in downtown Palo Alto.
Tastes fresh and delicious. Not runny like Gelato Classico. Chocolate faucets are super cool.
- Suket KarnawatNovember 4, 2014The gelato is all made the same day. Incredibly fresh, and very good value.

We created Gelataio out of our passion for artisanal Italian gelato and our love for the farm-fresh foods of California.
The result is lovingly handcrafted gelato in the Italian tradition, infused with the natural goodness of California and made from scratch in our onsite micro creamery.

"They make the waffle cones fresh behind the counter. Get one in a cup (like a tortilla) if you don’t normally like cones."
