They offer a wide range of gelato ice cream flavors with free samples before you commit. Staff was nice and patient with us, even when we couldn't decide which flavors to get because they all tasted so good. We ended up going with the tropical fruits like durian, lychee, jackfruit, and soursop, and some of them even had fruit bits in them. I highly recommend this place for ice cream lovers!This place is located in Vietnam Town, so parking can be hard to find during the weekend.

Marco Polo remains to be my favorite gelato place! The ice cream is rich and creamy, not too thick but also not too watery. Service is always good and the ambiance is great! ** I got the ultimate combo: Large Waffle Cone;- Thai tea- Durian- Gauva- Lychee So good!! I've even hauled some ice cream back home to family in Los Angeles, it's that good!

Our fave ice cream spot in South Bay. The durian is a must try. It's one of the best, not too sweet and great durian texture. A must try!With several local ice cream shops disappearing, I truly hope the store will be in business foreverLet's support their business, y'all!

Every friend I've introduced this place to loves it, even the ones who don't care about ice cream/gelato! Marco Polo has yet to let me down. There's a flavor for everyone here, from the fruit lovers to the dessert enjoyers! I recommend sampling if you're on the fence about any flavor. --UPDATED RATINGS--LYCHEE: 5/5+ MUST try! This is my absolute favorite flavor, and everyone who's tried this ranks lychee high too+ Tastes like a fresh lychee, and there's even lychee bits+ Literally pairs well with any other fruity flavorGUAVA: 5/5+ MUST try! This easily became a new top flavor for meDURIAN: 5/5+ MUST try! Literally tastes like you're eating a durian+ I'd say Maven's Creamery ice cream from Costco is just as good, but the gelato is just more stretchy/chewySTRAWBERRY: 3/5+ No longer a consistent flavor for me. Sample this for sure. It tastes a lot icier and very light on the strawberry+ On a good day, it tastes like you're eating a strawberryMANGO: 3.5/5+ No longer a consistent flavor for me. Sample for sure Tasty on a good day, but has a weird aftertaste sometimes+ Love the mango chunks in this!

Marco Polo Italian Ice Cream is the best thing to ever happen to me ever.My sister, a former SF resident, introduced me to Marco Polo many moons ago, and I have been looking forward to going again. We stopped by the SJ location for the first time and. It was worth it. Smooth, creamy, perfect. Instant dopamine. Thai tea ice cream is all i've ever needed in my life. Thank you Marco Polo. #Cream #Ate #ALPHAZ

This is the best gelato store with exotic flavors. So nice to have them in San Jose. We used to drive to SFO for Marco Polo. I got the black sesame and lychee. It was so good. The lychee was refreshing and not heavy and sweet. The black sesame was creamy and delicious. The store was bright with a 3 tables inside and seating outside. Service was very friendly.

If you're looking for a late-night sweet, Marco Polo offers amazing Asian flavors to try. The consistency is smooth, creamy, and a little icy, not your typical ice cream. I love their mangosteen and guava! Like where else can you get mangosteen as an ice cream flavor? UGH, can't get enough.

Came here for a late night sweet tooth craving. When you enter Vietnam Town, it is towards the right side that is closer to Grand Century. Marco Polo offers a variety of Asian flavored gelatos like Black Sesame and Thai. Love the rich consistency.

I bookmarked this place a long time ago, so I decided to try it out today! There are some seats both indoors and outdoors. Their ice cream flavors are unique. For example, I haven't seen mangosteen ice cream before. They have a lot of Asian-inspired flavors like Thai tea, green tea, lychee, and guava.We decided to go with a medium today with three flavors: Mangosteen, Green Tea, and Pandan.Small: 1-2 flavorsMedium: 1-3 flavorsLarge: 1-4 flavorsAll the flavors are very delicious. It's refreshing and light, and you can easily finish the whole cup yourself. Perfect for the summer (or any season, really) or dessert after lunch/dinner. Will check out the other flavors next time, can't wait.
