The best gelato! You won’t find it by searching for the name in google maps nor the Unilocal map. Just punch in the address, then you’ll find it easily. The ricotta with honey & sesame was really good and unique. Also ask for a biscuit!

In my opinion, the best gelato in Italy! On our four city vacation to Italy, we tried about 10 different well-researched gelatterias in Rome, Florence, Cinque Terre and Venice. Our research was based on Rick Steve’s guide book and personal recommendations from foodie friends. After getting lost in the streets and canals of Venice, we stumbled upon a small but clean gelatteria and decided to give it a try. We were amazed at how delicious the black cherry and tiramisu gelato flavors were — creamy, true to the real flavors, inexpensive. Truly an undiscovered gem that is worth finding your way to!

I have found it. I have found the best gelato in Italy, nigh… the world! No, I am not overstating. By this point in the trip I have probably eaten 10 gallons of gelato, so I would consider myself a bit of an expert. After our sightseeing trip to Saint Mark’s Square we decided that an afternoon gelato would be the perfect way to end our day/start our evening. After much searching we found this place tucked away down an alley. The shop is small, and they don’t have any indoor seating — although, honestly they might. I was so enamored with the gelato case I don’t think I would have noticed an elephant standing in there. I went with the Amarena(yes, again) and the mascarpone with apples and cinnamon. It was undeniably the best gelato I have ever had. I am writing this review upon my return and I still think it is the best gelato I have ever had. The flavors were wonderful and the texture amazing. It was just all around, incredible. I would have gone back again and again if we had stayed in Venice any longer, but we didn’t. If you are looking for the best gelato in the world — you have found it. It does not get better than this! *How does this place not have more reviews?! People, this is the best place to get gelato!!!

Our first authentic gelato experience in Italy was at San Stae… and let me tell you, this place is awesome and the people are really friendly. We weren’t exactly sure how to order in Italian, but the people here were helpful and let us try several flavors. My husband loved the fragola(strawberry) and I loved the pistachio. They were both excellent and the value was good as well — single scoop 1 euro.
