| - The best gelato ever!
I've been so addicted to this place that it's almost embarrassing. I've brought my friends and family here and now they're addicted too. I've had gelato at other places and always felt that it was just good ice cream. After coming here I learned what gelato really is. Yes, there is a difference between gelato and ice cream!
Gelato Simply Italian is a modern and sleek place and fills up fast during the evenings. The staff is super friendly, efficient and helpful when it comes to helping you pick out gelato. They have a ton of unique flavors and they do have a nice selection of sorbet. The gelato here is very flavorful, light and not too sweet. My favorites have to be prickly pear, carmelo, tiramisu, chili chocolate, Italian wine, macedonia, frozen yogurt and so much more. You can get a cone or cup. Sizes are small (two scoops- $3.50), medium (three scoops $5) and large (four scoops- $6). The portions are good, nothing too generous though.
Besides gelato, they have a coffee bar. I like their coffee here, very strong and gets me through the day. They also have crepes (sweet & savory), Italian desserts, a fridge with cannoli's and other sweet goodies. I love their coffee granita (semi-frozen strong coffee). Ask for the granita 'Roman style' you won't be disappointed!
The only thing I don't like is that some of the stuff here is pricey and the portions of the gelato can be inconsistent at times depending on who is serving that day.
Overall this place is excellent if you're looking for an authentic gelato experience, lunch or bringing a coffee date. Highly recommended!
