  • Here's to Messina they're true blue! Gelato Messina opened up this week at Downtown Summerlin and this Australian-based gelateria is churning out some incredible gelatos & sorbets! Messina offers proper coffee, gelato cakes, a few specialty products, but at their heart they are a creative and refined gelato/sorbet shop. They have about 40 gelatos/sorbets on hand at any one time including many standards and a few feature flavors they rotate. Feature flavors come out for a couple days and are then removed to make way for a new flavor from their library of about 200 flavors you'd experience if you came in every day...or every other day technically. I've only sampled around 50 of these flavors at this point, but Messina can only get better in my mind. I have greatly enjoyed several of their flavors, but in the end none of them have outright surpassed a couple of my favorite gelatos that were until recently available here in Vegas. That being said, Gelato Messina may be the best gelato currently available...time and another 50 flavor samples will tell as they have some stiff competition with a couple recent additions. Messina's gelatos have a great, but slightly atypical texture--they're using "real cream" that hasn't been altered or supplemented with any additives and is pasteurized on site (apparently significant effort was required to even locate a reputable source to supply said product). Many flavors are a tad on the sweet side for me and I found myself drawn to sorbets more than normal. The Salted Mango Coconut and the Pandan with Coconut were a couple of my favorites right off the bat. These vegan options are the best sorbets I've experienced! Messina's bestselling gelato back in Australia is Salted Caramel and White Chocolate--simply looking at this flavor increases you chance of developing diabetes by a factor of 10, but it still wasn't the sweetest flavor I tried here. I really enjoyed So Wrong It's Right with cream cheese and caramel gelato smashed with white chocolate potato chips, smothered in duck fat caramel...but in the end I opted for scoops of other flavors as this was too rich for my blood to enjoy a whole serving. The bottom line is that Gelato Messina is a fantastic addition to the Vegas frozen treats scene. They blow away any other frozen desserts in Downtown Summerlin (I'm talking to you Cream) and are in contention for the best in town. Come here for outstanding, inventive Gelato! Come here for some of the best sorbets around! Come here if you want the best dessert in Downtown Summerlin! Come here for Proper Australian coffee! Come here for gelato cakes! Do make a point to come here!
