One of the good Gelato to have Small shop in a very beautiful San Anselmo town. It was a drizzling afternoon and we just had our lunch. We had been talking about Italy and gelatos over lunch and while we were returning back to car we found the shop and couldn’t resist ourselves. We ordered chocolate gelato and started to speak to Uncle who served us. He was so good to talk to and it just made our day. I would love to go back just to meet him again :) Gelato (while no once can compare to one’s you get in Italy) was good and I would definitely recommend it.

I'll be brief. Fabulous gelato. Great location. Wonderful owner. However, the new hires, especially the guy that worked previously at the bagel shop across the street is rude, pushy and should not be working with people given his unfavorable attitude. I've been coming here with my family for 18 years and now that is in question because of the highly undesirable personality behind the counter, who unfortunately is training a hire right beneath him to be a mirror of his negative self.

Great taste and various flavors. Parking can be tricky and they do NOT accept cards. It is a cash only establishment. I was able to order two flavors in one scoop, which was nice. Coconut Macadamia Nut and Darth Vader Dark Chocolate.

Really enjoyed the cupo misto. Reminded me of the gelato in Rome.

★★★★★ 5.0 Sam Etler · Sep 2024

Visited for the first time and have to admit I was wary because of the reviews. Ended up talking with the owner for a few minutes and he was incredibly friendly. He's been running the place for 40 years. We talked about the history of the establishment and how he got into the gelato business. No rudeness and delicious gelato. The small seating area in the back was very nice for our small group. I would highly recommend it and plan to go back often.
