Frost Gelato

Store front is inviting & clean! Inside Melissa, Sandra, and Sarah were some of the sweetest and most helpful workers we encountered on our vacation. They truly are a great assets to your team and full of energy. The gelato, sherbet, and bon-bon-style ice creams were unique and absolutely delicious. We sampled several flavors, and the team guided us with such grace, even sharing some of their personal favorites and recommendations.We ended up buying six ice creams and bon-bons to take home for family, and would definitely be regulars if we lived closer! Frost Gelato, please consider expanding to Colorado (Elizabeth/Parker area), Boston, MA, and Lake Havasu, AZ--all of these places would love your specialty ice cream experience!Five star deliciousness & service!!

I found myself craving ice cream after lunch here in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We just had lunch at the sawmill market and I asked my friend, Where can we get some awesome ice cream?My friend says she knew a place. So without telling me where it is, not that I know anyway, we drove about a couple miles or so, we ended up here at Frost Gelato. My expectations for ice cream are quite low, since most places if not, I'll have straight chocolate ice cream without any additional toppings. Just pure hundred percent chocolate ice cream. Upon arrival, the store was empty. There was one lady that already had checked out. I was leaving the store when we came in. So I did like the ambience since it was quiet on a Wednesday afternoon around 2 PM. It was quite nice to be able to have ice cream in the middle of the day in the middle of the work week. Then again I was on vacation anyway. Do you overall experience talk about 15 minutes or so since I knew exactly what I wanted. The prices here were more less on par with what I've known for ice cream over the years. It seem to be tracking upward because of the 2020 COVID-19 inspired inflation. In the end, I decide to take a court home with me back to the hotel of here 100% chocolate ice cream. 25 It was pure magic for sure. I ended up paying for my friend who got a cup of something. I forgot what it was. It was a nice treat at the end of 6 mile run before I had to do a 50 mile run in another state three days after this visit. I guess ice cream helps with marathon training. Maybe.The overall experience here at Frost Gelato ice cream shop in Albuquerque, New Mexico was great and casual at the same time. I enjoyed the fact that they have multiple flavors of ice cream in the display freezers. I always liked handmade pints versus pre-packed pints where they just grab it from the nearby freezer. Freshly scooped pints are awesome versus pre packed. That's just me though, but I prefer hand scooped. The service here was definitely friendly and I think they enjoyed having us there, especially on a Wednesday afternoon at 2 PM. There was a couple of tables here, but we didn't stay since my friend had other obligations that day and we had to head back. ice cream shop was clean and very meticulously scrub down pretty much. It seems like it was relatively brand new construction for this store. For the most part though, it was definitely a nice treat for both of us since we ran 6 miles together on a public paved trail. And so, if you crave ice cream as much as anybody, like me, consider coming to frost gelato ice cream shop here in Albuquerque, New Mexico. It is great anytime anywhere for sure, even in the winter months as well. Definitely recommended if you're in the area and you can mix flavors if you want to, but I usually stick with chocolate, since that is my absolute favorite. Not sure if they do toppings here, but I didn't ask. Maybe they do maybe they don't. I don't know. Maybe you will know when you get here and ask if they do.Frost Gelato ice cream shop is located at 2201 Q St NE in beautiful Albuquerque, New Mexico. They accept major credit cards as well as cash. On this day, though, I forgot my wallet, but my friend graciously paid for me at the moment, while I repaid her back the same day Back at the hotel afterwards. As far as parking goes, they have limited spaces for anybody and everybody who wishes to come here for a treat. If this parking lot is filled up, there is always street parking nearby, wherever it's available. If you like me, though, I am with my friend in her private vehicle, so as bad is to get local friends who are running to pick you up and drop you off. If you're not that lucky or fortunate, best bet is to have a car of your own, rent a car, or even better contact an Uber or a Lyft. They can help you get to where you want to go in a heartbeat. With that said, I had a wonderful time here, even though it was short and sweet, literally in a ice cream shop. Not sure if they have Wi-Fi here, but you don't really need to have it anyway. If you're here in the Albuquerque area, I'm envious because you have the ice cream everybody's raving about. Ice cream was delicious and definitely enjoyed it immensely. The court was so big that I had to split it in two sittings. It was that rich and ginormous at the same time. So so good, I would need to come back here and get some more if future travels permit for me to do so. Thanks to my local Albuquerque friend who recommended this place to me.5.0 stars for the overall experience.Support local!A+

My spouse loves gelato so we made the stop. Located near ABQ Uptown and Winrock area, Frost Gelato is a great spot to stop for a sweet treat. Service was quick, establishment is clean, and we enjoyed our scoop.

It's been awhile since we've been here - probably close to 2 yrs. Just like any business the prices have increased to reflect the increases in ingredients, labor & rent. The gelato is still delicious and nutritionally better but it is nearing $2 more than a similar size scoop of ice cream. The other thing missing are the pirouline cookies that used to be that used to be included. It started with a whole cookie, then 1/2, now gone. This 3 cent retail is a small piece that we miss.

Frost breaks the cardinal rule by heaping their gelato into mounds - a clear indicator to buyers that Frost uses artificial flavors. I don't see other gelato options in ABQ, though, so if you care less about quality than a sugar fix, this place is for you. Cashiers keep the line moving, so no need to be discouraged if the small shop is packed when you walk up.Think I'll just stick with regular, high-quality ice cream. Recs welcome!

One of my favorite places to go in Uptown. I had the Blackberry Cabernet and Lemon Sorbet which were both delicious. The gelato ingredients are imported from Italy and made fresh daily. My sister had the sugar-free chocolate gelato and she said it was good. Our server Donovan was great! He was friendly and helpful and brought us a cup of water without us asking for it. The ambiance is quint. There are only a couple of tables so it's ideal to sit outside and eat which is not a problem because there's plenty of places to sit outside in ABQ Uptown. I would highly recommend Frost gelato!

It's open and delicious! Fresh house made gelato, they even carry some sugar free options.

First time having Gelato , not a bad experience taste wise. The inside was a little cramped but they do have outside seating. Only bad thing was the bathroom wasn't in service lol I didn't have to use it, but others tried ‍

The gelato itself is a 5 however the staff it's a 1. Not a single smile, all serious unpleasant faces at a gelato shop. They seemed bothered to serve customers, I asked if they were replacing some of the flavors that were out they said no, but as I was leaving they brought out the flavors I asked about. Every time I come the staff seem bothered to do their job which is unfortunate because the gelato is amazing. I came in around 5pm today.

Their gelato is amazing. I've tried just about every flavor and go at least once a month. Service has always been great and friendly. Location is clean. I just which they had a lot more indoor seating! I hate going from their nice indoor environment to a cold slightly dirty environment outside! Sometimes I have to eat in my car before taking off which I don't like to do.
