This place and experience was so amazing! From the aesthetic to the treats, there is so much to like. I had the double salted caramel brownie and vanilla bean gelato, which were both delicious. I was also able to sample many flavors and they were ALL delicious. Amy, the owner, is so awesome, answering all my questions with a smile on her face! Definitely coming here again!

This is such a charming shop and you are guaranteed to have a great experience anytime you walk in. The decorations are so adorable yet cozy and the desserts are delectable. The Italian Ice is crafted with care and there are tons of flavors to choose from. We had the Pina Colada, Mango, and Guava and they were all refreshing and sweet. The waffle bites were wonderful as well. Definitely worth going if you are around the area!

Yummy-YUM-YUM!!! Amy the owner makes her icies all from scratch using real fruit. She has 15+ flavors to offer. I love the kumquat, lemon and lavender blueberry. She is super friendly, kind, and generous. And she has a mobile truck where she can do events and boat docks & marinas. If you get a chance to go, your tummy will thank you! A great treat For the whole family all year round.

We had the best time at Concetto’s Italian Ice!! The Italian ice flavors were so fresh, without the artificial taste that a lot of other places have. They also have dye free flavor options. The Mermaid water craft Italian sparkler was amazing and refreshing! The atmosphere is so fun and cozy, there is a kids corner that my kids had so much fun with. We can’t wait to come back!

We got a double of passion fruit and mango and another double of salted caramel brownie and vanilla chip!
No complaints, both were extremely delicious. Really friendly and cordial staff, they allow you to sample beforehand. Worth a visit if you’re in town.

My family and I had an absolutely delightful experience at Concetto’s! I drove almost an hour just to try your vanilla chip, and it was well worth the journey. Reminded me of my home in NY. The staff was friendly and patient, making us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. The owner, Logan, took the time to chat with us, and his kindness and welcoming nature truly added to our visit.
The shop itself is clean, bright, and cheery, with charming decor that creates a warm atmosphere. It was a pleasure to speak with you, Amy, via email before our long commute, and I appreciate how attentive and kind you were.
Thank you for providing such an amazing experience for my family and me. We can’t wait to come back and try more of your delicious flavors! And thanks so much for the merch!

Such a cute shop! There was obviously a lot of attention to detail put into the decor and menu. The magic fridge is such a cute idea and the photos in the bathroom…
The owners were chatting with everyone and giving out free samples when I went in. This is the atmosphere you look for when shopping local!

Cute decor, clean seating, super friendly owner, and so many flavors to choose from! Way more than the lemon, cherry, and rainbow at my neighborhood pizzeria back in Queens! The only thing missing from the NY style Italian ice experience is the paper cup that melted away if you took too long to eat. We’ll be back!
