When you call something "The Gelato Shop", it's got to be the place to get your gelato fix. Well it definitely is in San Pedro Square! It is tucked away in one of the entrances right next to the ParkSJ garage, with the tempting ice cream displayed front and center.I opted for the Sicilian pistachio and cookies and cream to get a taste of the classics in both countries. The pistachio was probably one of the best I have ever had. It wasn't too sweet with a strong pistachio flavor, giving it that perfect balance. The cookies and cream was solid, but took away from the feel of eating a smooth and creamy gelato. However the quality of the gelato itself felt really nice.I will definitely frequent this place as the gelato place whenever I'm in downtown. I'm a huge fan!

Honestly, I tried many of the flavors and am not a fan of how the gelato is made. The service was very good, where they were open to tasting as many flavors as you wanted to find the right choice. I liked that it was located in San Pedro Square which is very convenient and energetic. Maybe my tastes are spoiled by gelato in other spots like in Valley Fair

Excited to see this cute little gelato shop open by the front doors of the food hall in San Pedro Square Market. With a decent selection to choose from, they really prioritized the quality and taste of their products. I was able to sample some flavors and ended up picking the hazelnut chocolate crunch and coffee chocolate chip. Both flavors were really rich and delicious- the strong coffee taste paired well with the chocolate and the tiny bits of crunch in the hazelnut gelato was so satisfying. Great pick me up after a meal and I'm excited to go back again when I'm in the area!

I ordered an affogato. It came with two small scoops of ice cream of your choice topped with a shot of espresso. I went with the vanilla. The gelato was okay, not very creamy compared to other spots like Eataly or Venchi. Espresso was good and paired well with the vanilla. Tasted a lot like the coffee ice cream without the artificial aftertaste you get from some brands.

I made a stop at this inviting spot to cool off after a spicy meal nearby. The Tiramisu gelato was great. The guy working here was super nice. I had a question about a neighborhood spot and he spent a lot of time looking it up on his phone so he could give me guidance.

Was curious about this place after noticing a couple of times as I pass through San Pedro Market, so I decided to give it a shot. There's not much ambiance as it's tucked away in a specific corner of San Pedro Market, so you either see it immediately or potentially gloss over it entirely depending on which entrance you take. The server didn't notice me initially as I was looking at the flavors, but once I finally got around to ordering he seemed friendly. There only appears to be one person working at a time, and they appear to rotate through different people.I decided to try out "Spumoni" as I had never heard of it before, and found out that it's a combination of fudge, cherry and pistachio ice cream. The fudge goes well with the cherry, which had a strong cherry flavor that just barely managed to avoid tasting like medicine, as cherry-flavored things tend to do. The pistachio was much weaker but it was likely because the other flavors were much stronger, but I'm unsure if this is normal for spumoni or not. Either way, it was a good experience, and the server made sure I was getting my money's worth as he had added an additional scoop when the first one wasn't big enough. One scoop totaled to exactly $5.50, which I'd say was probably decent. It's a nice place, and I might consider coming here again to try a different flavor if I'm with a friend.

I live less than a mile from here and walk to The Gelato Shop more than twice a week...I really wish it were consistent. The bad- Closing hours are not as posted. We've come several times where the shop is cleaned and closed 15 minutes before closing. Most recent example was last night. We made sure to arrive around 8:50p (20 minutes before closing @9:15). San Pedro was very busy for a Tuesday and all the stores were booming and open. Not the Gelato Shop. Lastly, not all scoopers scoop equally, especially if a flavor is running low on a busy night. The good- good gelato and great coffee. Great location. Dog gelato (hella expensive tho)

Nestled inside San Pedro Square, with its bustling food stalls, there's a new gelato shop. The staff were friendly. I recently tried the gelato from San Pedro Square and can confirm it was a good experience! I chose lemon and mango sorbet.The first few spoonfuls were bursting with delicious mango and lemon flavors. You can clearly taste both flavors, and they don't clash with each other. The texture was soft for a sorbet and not icy and the flavors were bright and tasty. If you're in the mood for a tropical gelato with the warm weather approaching, I recommend trying these flavors.I would definitely return here!

They're supposed to be serving affogato ( ice cream with espresso) but coffee machine wasn't turned on so the wait will be 10 mins. Mind you, they opened at 11 am and it's already 1 pm. I'm a bit disappointed. No ambiance here.
