| - I feel compelled to leave a review about the service at g for gelato because my friend and I were there tonight, at the same time as the man who recently left a negative review.
we have a LOT of experience with this place, as we've been going here once or twice a week for several months, to have their surprisingly good pizza and gelato (my favourite is captain crunch) and study. it's perfect for us because there's lots of seating and you feel comfortable being there whether you're just having a cup of tea, or having a whole dinner.
as a result of being there for up to 4 hours every week, we've now seen pretty much every server in action, often during VERY busy periods. I have never seen any of them - including julia, who I think is the brunette - be anything other than courteous, and have never seen any conflicts. (most of the servers' vibes are overall more chill/calm than bubbly or high-energy, but I personally prefer chill/calm servers, so it suits me fine.) I did, however, hear that man shouting some pretty domineering and demeaning things towards the server... my friend and I were both shocked. then he turned to us and tried to start aggressively ranting at us about her, from two tables away. my friend had to order him to stop talking to us. it was honestly bizarre. I sympathize that he felt slighted but we overheard the whole thing and it was obviously a minor misunderstanding... it certainly didn't call for such an intense response.
this is all to say that the low key, reliable service at g for gelato is one of the main reasons my friend and I keep coming back. the brunette, the blonde, and the lebanese (I think?) guy have all been really kind to us. for me, the only thing that could stand to be improved is the air conditioning in the summer months - it can get pretty warm in there.
