This is definitely the best gelato I have ever tasted. Every flavor is worth trying, and the quality is unmatched. The staff is also super friendly. Give them a try if you are in the Cincinnati/NKY area!

Come here and taste the care and passion that is put into their team making great house made gelato every day fresh at this local treasure in Covington. Abby and Brayden treat people great, and the free samples will make your choices for flavors tough. It is all good and super tasty. The fun is building flavors that go well together. The bigger the size, the more you can experiment. Try the sorbet, much creamier than you would expect. Expertly made. My favorite gelato combo of all time from anywhere is here at Golden. It is a chocolate/peanut butter gelato: the dark chocolate sorbet mixed with the honey roasted peanut butter in the large size with 2 parts chocolate and 1 part peanut butter. Second is pistachio with espresso chip! The homemade care in the gelato is evident in the textur

You have to trust the reviews because these are the best gelato I’ve tasted my whole life!! Definitely worth it walking across the bridge from Cincy for this.

★★★★★ 5.0 Sam P · Oct 2025

Probably the best and highest quality gelato place I've ever been to. The guy that works there (didn't catch his name unfortunately) always goes above and beyond with friendly service, even when he doesn't have to. All the gelatos you see in the window are made fresh every day and you can really taste it. The banana toffee in particular is out of this world, even the sorbets are great. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone - the whole experience is the definition of the word 'treat'.

Of all the jewels of the surrounding Queen City, the electric rays of Golden Gelato can be felt in the form of 10/10 dairy and vegan gelato, an Italian bar, full espresso service, take away treats and a beautiful place in the community to regularly meet and make friends.
