I am a big fan of Pistacchio gelato - and believe me when I say this was the best gelato I ever had! Ever. We ate at a restaurant two doors down and he recommended this and right on the spot! Absolutely brilliant - with real pistacchio flavor and pieces! Highly recommended

I really like their fruit flavors and the flavor with salt! Amazing!!! One of my favorite gelaterie in Trieste! After buying the gelato, it’s a nice street to walk around! And there’s a park near! Sometimes the staffs speak English!

Amazing! All natural ice cream and so many vegan options. I got a pistachio ice cream and it was so good with little bits of nuts in too. And all the staff were so lovely and kind.

Good icecream with special selection. The ginger flavour was really great and other more typical ones taste great too! You can choose your cupsize and then mutliple flavours that this cup should be filled with. You pay for the amount that fits in the cup and not per scoop. Really great if you like to mix and match!

They have a good enough vegan gelato, but not too many options in general. I am very pleased with lemon one! Refreshing and not tasting like some lemon detergent, fake.. You can also ask to try a taste with spoon. Price is similar as everywhere else this season, 2€. You can also do half-half, which is great and a rare around here! No seating places, but it is right in front of Hortis park .. Update after a year: flavors remain the same and aren't many, think they've added just lemon with mint which was refreshing (while kept usual lemon too, not adding sth new instead). Prices also remain the same!

excellent, natural gelato! In the last three years we come here when we visit Trieste. I’ ve tried almost every flavour. Amazing. The prices are very nice! Especially comparinv to Croatian gelaterias where the medium size cup is 10 euros and here is 4 euros!!! And for sure the quality is like in San Giminiano’s famous gelaterias, I am not exaggerating. Definitely love this place and recomend it to all gelato lovers and vegans too.
