Sweet Venezia is brand spanking new. I want a new Gelato shop to do well that is this close to home. Sweet Venezia isn't ready for prime time yet. They have a nice space, they have parking, the place is clean.
However, they need to make their refrigeration colder, the gelatos were all soupy and melty. My fudge gelato was grainy as if there was a powder base and frankly... I drank it. Now we did stop in for drinks as well, but that wasn't what I had in mind. My partner ordered the Jungle Jolt and the person there wasn't sure how to make it. The other person cleaning wasn't sure either. They made a float, it worked and my partner liked it well enough.
I wasn't happy with the consistency or overall quality of the gelato, but they are brand new and it might take them a bit to get their chill on properly. Maybe I'll check them out in a month or two and see if things are better, but I'm still in love with Arlecchino's and they aren't much farther away.
