So delicious. The amount of flavors is wild and they let you sample which is very kind. The Uber and cookies was delicious and they have so many vegan options. Staff is very patient and nice; toppings are abundant. Ambience is chill. Seating outside only; but it's very scenic! Baby comes they are a thing... a delicious thing!Favorite vegan flavor : coconut ! Non vegan: UBE w Oreos

Service: alright Strawberry croissant: very sweet but good with coffee Matcha Latte: not sweetened, feel like just matcha powder plus milk. Lots of ice and the drink spill to the lid (although I am not sure how when the open is small) it is messy when I drink it. Both items came out to less than $10 with coupon. I won't be back. And original price not worth it.

Love IL Gelato Cafe on Lewers in Waikiki!Incredible "Aloha Spirit" and bella taste on Italy on Waikiki! Bravo! Encore!We are in town Breaking Bad dropping our Rainbow Warrior son off at University of Hawaii at Manoa for this Sophmore year. We just back from a day on Queens Beach of swimming, relaxing, soaking up the spectular Hawaii sunshine and needed a special treat. Thankfully my wife spotted @ilgelatoHawaii and we were immediately greeted with a bella smile and Aloha" by Leilani and Joe who guided us in samples and enormous gelato varieties. I am usually a coffee ice cream expert and Leilani convince me to get the Kona Coffee and a chololatr combo. My wife got the Lolikoi and Passfruit. Wonderful!The store is bright, extremely friendly service with infectious laughter and sense of humor! It a MUST stop in Waikiki after a meal and stroll down Waikiki shops enjoying prefection in gelato!Grazie Leilana & Joe! PRESTO arrivederci !!UPDATE: Sunday 8-We had breakfast at IL Gelato Cafe since they had Illy Coffee! Sydney and Joe were very welcoming! We had a latte, Cappuccino, Berry Waffle and Lemon Crepe. EXCELLENT! THANKS presto!#ILGELATOCAFE#WAIKIKI#HONOLULU#ILgelatoHawaii

You can also sample flavors.Overall amazing Gelato spot with great Gelato. We will be going back before our trip is over :)

This is one of their newer locations in the heart of Waikiki. The interior is airy, bright, and very spacious. Aside from selling delicious authentic tasting gelato, you can expect to find acai bowls, coffee, milkshakes, smoothies, crepes, waffles, and other baked goods here. I ordered the Strawberry cheesecake and Pistachio gelato, and quite enjoyed it. The staff here were all very friendly, and welcoming. During my week in Hawaii, there was always a staff member asking people to go in the sample their gelato in the evenings.

If you want creamy, fresh, and delicious gelato with a lot of choices and friendly staff, come here! We've already been here twice in 2 days and after trying many flavors, what we got today was four scoops in a bowl: lilikoi, coconut, pineapple mint, and piña colada! I did not expect the pineapple mint to be as amazing as it was! If you like Mojito, then you would like this is how the person helping us described it and he was right! It's a nice clean store and they don't rush you to make a decision.

Located in a popular shopping area just a few blocks from the beach at Waikiki. Was greeted by a super friendly staff member who helped us to pick some flavors. I opted for the choco dipped strawberry gelato in a small cup. This stuff is dense so a small cup is all I needed. The flavor was fantastic. Reminded me of the choco dipped strawberry blizzard from Dairy Queen but with lots more chocolate. New fave flavor from here!

Not real Italian gelato. So disappointed since a few of the items had gotten awards. It doesn't hold up to an authentic gelato which is so much more flavorful, and creamy.

We were staying in Waikiki at our nearby airbnb and were walking around late night and found this nice gelato spot. I got the ube ice cream which was definitely on the creamier side which I appreciated but serving size was quite small for how much we paid. Very tasty though just wish I had some more.
