Gelato Firenze

The gelato itself is just okay but I expected a lot more hazelnut flavour & sweetness to the guava. The shop operates through a window so there's no way to taste test before you order. 3 stars for the prices maybe, they do 1-2 flavours for smallest scoop too!

Afraid to share bc we don't want long lines. Only posting this after a few years bc we want this business to stay. Bottom- quickly. Better- mister green bubble. This place- super good. My son also gets the Oreo smoothie- comes w whipped cream and Oreo dust.

This place is my go to spot for boba! I get the milk teas and they make it perfectly every time. No seating. This is a walkup window kind of spot; parking is easy; the owner is friendly and the lines move quickly.

The best boba milk tea and the best avocado smoothies I've had. Ice cream (gelato) is good too, I've been told.They have it boarded up since the riots and kept it boarded up during Covid, but you can order at the door. Even though the state of emergency is officially over for Covid, they still have the best touch-free transaction I've seen anywhere.If you choose to give a thumbs-up or not, I hope you found my review helpful!

I LOVE boba. I stopped drinking caffeine last year which impacted my usual order. I asked the woman working here what was good that didn't have caffeine. She suggested Taro. She described the flavor as "extra creamy." I don't wanna say this changed my life but low key... it did haha! I will never stray from taro flavor even if I went back to caffeine. My order: taro boba milk tea- regular milk, regular boba, 25% sweet. It is always still plenty sweet like that. Another amazing option: make it a smoothie! In summer time a smoothie just hits different. This is by far my favorite boba place. I feel like it must be family owned because I always see the same person working. If you love to support small/family owned businesses, go check them out!

Nice boba spot right by Lake Merritt and the Grand Lake theater. Very COVID compliant now. They talk to you via microphone and push the credit card machine to you via this stick box contraption they created at the window. Same with your drinks. I was pleasantly surprised how seriously they took their health. I guess it makes a lot of sense too, it's a highly trafficked area especially on the weekends!Got a soy boba tea with red bean and it was pretty good! Fresh and chewy and fast! Their menu is huge too, they can make anything and even offer smoothies and gelato and ice cream. Definitely a great spot to visit before walking around the lake.

Came here on a Friday afternoon after I picked up the boys. Boys wanted some ice cream on a hot day and I had a craving for some boba. We ordered through the window. Kids got some Thai tea ice cream and I ordered boba. Everything came out very quickly. The staff here is very nice and courteous. If you guys are around the area and need something sweet please come by here and try them out

Food and drink*** A whole in the wall business that serves Gelato and bobas. I had a chocolate Gelato that was ok.Ambiance**Not much Ambiance. I know they are doing their best to be safe. The server is way back, wearing a mask and using a creative contraption to collect money. Accessibility****This easy to get to with a wheel chair. Street parking can be difficult but you can park in the Trader Joes parking lot.Cost***average.Service**The person behind the mask serving the ice cream felt robotic, and she didn't seem interested in relating to me. She was not friendly. When I asked about the Gelato, she just pointed to the sign.

Cheap, friendly tea doesn't taste like it's powdered, quality taste. The cashier is quite friendly too!

Food: 7/10Service: order and pay at counterValue: 7/10Portion size: medium Wait time: less than 5 minutesHubby and were walking around the lake and decided to cool off with some Gelato! This place also has boba milk tea as well, which I will try next time.We got the toasted marshmallow and thai boba milk tea Gelato flavors. Both were good! The toasted marshmallow Gelato had real marshmallows in it. It also has a yummy realistic marshmallow taste and isn't too creamy (what I love about gelato). The Thai boba milk tea is also very good and tastes like Thai tea. The boba was a little mushy and too melted for me. But maybe its hard to keep boba frozen in ice cream. I do love all the fun flavors of Gelato. I have never seen so many Asian flavors before. Like I said, I do wanna try their boba drinks! I saw a cool grapefruit orange drink that looks super refreshing during hot summer months! Can't wait to try it!Also everything is still covid safe! They have an iPad on a stick and a plastic screen to protect workers and customers.
