Gelatissimo

I was craving something sweet after an amazing meal at Sahara next door. I’ve tried other gelato places and also Gelatissimo’s in Sydney but by far, this one is the best.
I was astounded by the variety flavors they carry and was overwhelmed by how appealing they all looked. From my perspective, the staff was incredibly helpful and efficient considering how busy they were at the time. I decided to go with the cookies and cream flavor which was probably the most luxurious tasting gelato I’ve ever tasted. Would highly recommend going there on a Saturday night because of the amazing staff. My husband also ordered a latte and was surprised how good it was considering how young the barista was! Would highly recommend!

I’m not particularly fond of ice-​creams and hate gelato’s even more. Their sorbets are 100 percent fat free, which equals bland in my opinion and their premium ice creams are 97 percent fat free! It just doesn’t taste like a real ice cream, which is probably why they decided to come up with a new name — Gelato to distinguish it from regular ice creams.
With summer coming up, I know I will be making frequent trips to Gelatissimo, owing to my partners fetish with ice-​creams, so I’ve decided to make the most of it. I usually order their coffee’s with a biscotti on the side. Their biscotti’s are delicious. I love the chocolate coated, chocolate filled, just about anything with chocolate on it biscuits, chocolates or cakes.
It’s worth trying something different and now I am a happy customer. I don’t love gelatissimo but I have found things I can enjoy while I’m there.

Who doesn’t love a big, fat, dripping ice cream at the end of a blistering Summer day? I know I do, and whenever I need a fix, I head straight for Gelatissimo in Burwood.
Located at the entrance of Westfield, Gelatissimo offers a tantalising variety of gelato, sundae’s, rich chocolates, coffee and biscotti. For those who have special dietary requirements, Gelatissimo also offer a range of gluten and dairy free products.
I don’t usually bother with the coffee and biscotti, so I can’t say much for the quality of these items, but after sampling about half the flavours on offer, I can safely say that Gelatissimo’s gelato is delicious.
From your traditional Chocolate and Lemon, to the more sophisticated Caramalised Fig and Honey Toffee Malt (my favourite), Gelatissimo’s vast range of flavours will please even the most fussy eater.
Customer service is average and disinterested, but when you’re scooping ice cream all day, I guess there isn’t too much to get excited about.
My only other complaint is Gelatissimo’s prices, which are pretty steep. Three scoops of gelato will cost you about the same as a meal from a fast food joint, if not more, depending on what size you choose.
Gelatissimo has great gelato at premium prices. So the next time you need to cool down, check it out and grab a cone (or tub).
