It was okay. I've struggled to find any good gelato places in Calgary that aren't super out of the way. I was in Kensington grabbing brunch with a girlfriend the other day and we were both in the mood for gelato. Amato is located in a small plaza with a few parking spots about a ~5 minute drive from Sunnyside station. Walking in there were only 2 other people, and many flavour options including gluten free/sorbettos.
I saw that they had mango sorbetto (my personal favourite) so I paid for a scoop (around $5.50). When the guy put the scooper in the mango sorbetto it had a pudding like texture and he said he "doesn't recommend it" - alright. I went with another sorbetto that he recommended (the exotica? - that apparently is 25% mango with pineapple, papaya and something else). It was still okay, but more tart than I'd like and was kind of orangey. Service wasn't overly friendly and nothing really impressed me unfortunately.
