Sooo good! Some of the creaminess, most delicious sorbet I’ve ever had! The hot chocolate is also creamy, very hot, and delicious. Non-dairy options available.

Super reasonably priced and the baristas are really sweet. What a cute place, I’ll have to come back and sample even more.

The kids’ sized mango sorbet is perfect for an afternoon treat. Indoor and outdoor seating available, good music and vibes.

This is small gelato shop in downtown Berkeley. We stopped here to get gelato. They have decent variety of flavors. I got a small cup with a mix of coffee and roasted almond with fig flavored ice creams. They were delicious. They also have vegan options as well. They have one table outside to sit and taste the ice cream.

Really thankful to Zoe. I lost my phone on the BART train, and she found it and kept it safe until my wife called. When I went to pick it up and tried to show my appreciation, she wouldn’t accept anything in return. So I bought some ice cream from her shop — and honestly, it exceeded my expectations. The pistachio and chocolate flavors I had were smooth, creamy, and delicious — some of the best I’ve ever had. Such a lovely shop, and thank you again, Zoe!

Rich and creamy gelato, coffee, and packaged items are offered in this shop.

It’s just a few yards away from the Downtown Berkeley BART station. There are a few tables and chairs outside. When you walk in, you’ll see some jarred and bagged items before getting to the gelato. The smallest size of container is the Kids size and costs $4.25. The largest container is a pint for $12.50. They have cake, sugar, and waffle cones, which are free, 60¢, and 85¢ respectively. They don’t offer samples. Service was amicable and checkout was quick and easy. I don’t think there is a customer restroom.

I had an affogato with a scoop of salted caramel gelato. The espresso and caramel mingled to produce a bittersweet, creamy, salty, mind-blowing combination. I highly recommend trying it. It costs $6.50 and it’s worth it.

Pistachio is the only thing I get. Just trust. If you go late and they don’t feel like bringing it out from the back they just tell you they’re all out. It seems like there most popular flavor maybe stock up??

This will be one of my new favorite places in Berkeley. It’s a cute hole in the wall Gelato place just outside the Downtown Berkeley BART station. I don’t know how long ago they opened, but I’m glad i know their existence now.
They have just a few tables, but the plaza is a great place for overflow.
It’s only a hop, skip, and jump from the movie theater, in case you’re inclined to treat yourself after a movie.

Overall I am giving them 5 Stars because the place is nice and clean. You can sample before you choose which is good these days you rarely find sampling easy To be honest the staff did not even smile I wouldn’t say they were very nice or wow customer service.
I got mango and strawberry and my husband got chocolate and pistachio and it was really good

Ciao to the gelato! This is probably by far one of the best gelato spots in Berkeley — which was a hustle and bustle area despite the space. A plus is also that they’re open until 11 at night, which boasts a late night snack.

They’re also conveniently located from the Downtown Berkeley BART Station, which is great for a last minute snack if you’re going to travel via public transit.
Me and my partner got the pistachio ice cream, which with the medium cup, was only $7. I admired how creamy the pistachio was, including the texture and how soft it tasted too.

Service was okay. There was a little line after we entered, so we felt rushed and made it through as quickly as possible. As far as the atmosphere went, it wasn’t too bad, although I would be more aware of the surroundings.
