Shock Gelato

We ate a late lunch today and weren’t wanting dinner really. So we decided to go out for dessert instead. We tried Shock Gelato for the first time and it didn’t disappoint. The atmosphere was very nice. I held the door for a group of lady customers as I was entering and they were exiting. I heard them say, “I love this place.” A group of young people that came in behind me shortly after were speaking amongst themselves while we were waiting to be served. They were also taking about how much they love this place and how they were here at the Grand Opening or first day open. I knew I had made a good choice. Kenny and Olivia were the servers and they did an excellent job taking care of the guests. The place was busier than I imagined a frozen dessert style restaurant would be on a late Sunda

We stumbled upon this super fun Birmingham spot looking for some quick dessert and lucked out. They were fairly busy with only a short line, but the staff were knowledgeable on their flavors and gave great recommendations with generous servings. The pistachio gelato was incredible and tasted just like a little slice of Italy. The cappuccino was the cherry on top! Definitely give this spot a try.

Gelato is a subjective experience. My experience with gelato began on a trip to Italy. It was absolutely wonderful. Back in the states I have rarely found anything comparable. (Surprisedly, there is an excellent place in Morgantown West Virginia.) We tried 6 flavors. The chocolate was an A. Raspberry and strawberry were a B. Kiwi was a C as was the mango. Banana rated D. Other tasters could be quite different in the ratings. However, the 3 adults in the household agreed on this. I am still looking for Italian level gelato around here.

You absolutely must try this gelato! It’s the most delicious I’ve ever had. Treat your family, friends, and yourself to this heavenly place. I just had a cappuccino here too, with a “Masita” (Argentinian pastry) and it was just as amazing! The staff too is incredibly friendly. I’ll be back!

Shock Gelato was amazing. The gelato was the best I've ever had. The atmosphere was fun and welcoming. Olivia and Kenny provided outstanding service. They were very friendly and patient. Also their recommendations were great. Excellent gelato and excellent service. I'll definitely be back.
