Momento Gelato and Coffee

Made several visits to get gelato while in Detroit and this place was super convient to where we were staying in Corktown. Service was always great and there were slight variations to the flavors offered. The gelato was always creamy and good and a staple flavor for me on each visit was pistachio. I also tried other flavors that we rely good also - chocolate, butter pecan and Michigan strawberry.Coffee, tea and baked goods are also available. Seating inside is limited but there are a number of tables the adjacent area and outside.

This is a perfect date night spot if you're looking for high quality and delicious gelato. I have been here twice and I am always impressed with the handcrafted flavors they have. The gelato is not overly sweet and you can tell that it is made with love. I highly recommend getting a flight, if I recall correctly, it's around $9 and perfect for sharing. The staff is always friendly and more than happy to let you sample the flavors before choosing. I will definitely be returning soon!Check out my Instagram for more @hangry_detroiter

I do appreciate trying to bring some authentic gelato to Detroit. The space is really cute. There is a fun counter with stools to sit on one side then a small room with tables and places to glance out of the window while studying or socializing with friends. There is a small case with baked goods, the almond cake with a scoop of gelato did sound very tempting and they offered a nice coffee drink selection. The server was helpful and cheery, told us all about the product and offered tastes before we decided. Overall a very positive experience. There was also a nice small steam of customers which is good. Personally though, I am not sure why the gelato was not displayed like your typical style where it is laid out in the case in a rectangular bin with the toppings to show the different flavors. It cannot be because they do not do that in Europe, because that is the traditional way to display gelato there and most other places. The ice cream was good but had some icy spots and did not have any chunks from the toppings.

So great when you can get authentic gelato in Detroit! The pistachio is amazing, as well as the other flavors. Always a great spot to hit up while downtown. Get some affogato and have a good time in Detroit!

I've been craving good gelato since Italy and this hit the spot! They have a great flavor selection. The gelato is creamy and tastes so fresh. The texture was a bit different from gelato I've had from Italy and was melting quite quickly. They sell pints to take on the go and some baked goods. They have a nice indoor and outdoor seating area.

I know there's inflation and I don't eat gelato frequently but this seemed quite expensive. All the flavors we got were delicious though. I'd go back to try more but it really has to be a special reason why.

The gelato here is very tasty, and it's such a welcome addition to the Detroit dining scene. But I have to say above that, the staff here was beyond friendly. Just incredibly personable, helpful, eager to offer up any samples we wanted. With the downtown dining scene, the service is very hit or miss. There are a lot of apathetic, and/or disaffected hipsters that seem pained to be there. And I know how awful being in the service industry can be; as that was my job for many years. But I still think it's better to air on the side of friendly and polite, especially in a tip-based position. And this is something that's been fomenting for years, long before the pandemic. But they have a great staff here, and it was just a fun and nice experience overall. Which is what going out for gelato should be.

I found this place in a seemingly rebuilding neighborhood amongst a surprisingly scant Detroit dessert scene. They have a substantial indoor and outdoor space to sit for a while. Their main attraction is gelato, but some pastries and paninis are available, and their coffee operation fairly extensive as well.The gelato was packed away where you couldn't see it, which makes things a bit tough as desserts are sold on appearance, but doing that preserves the flavor better than having an open display, and speaks of their commitment to quality. I wasn't thrilled with the flavor selection, which had basics like chocolate, pistachio, and caramel, but no mint and nothing especially creative. The most interesting one was a chocolate chip coffee flavor, which I sampled and bought with my other flavors. They had a respectable sorbetto selection for those wishing to avoid dairy.The gelato was quality stuff, though it starting melting quickly on an unseasonably warm day. The price was quite high, the selection not quite what I was hoping for, but if they're new here I think they have a chance to do well.

Place is just amazing when you walk it, friendly service, wife and I have gone there for date night treats and it never disappoints, some original flavors made in house that are just amazing.

Started good but the counter girl was snotty and rude when we questioned the portion of the affogato. $8 for a tiny scoop and expression. Clearly she has not learned about customer service. Sad because this was a gem in Detroit. Sadly no longer a good place to spend money.
