If I can, I would rate Benino as 3 ½ stars. We stopped by the shop while visiting Comox(home rental in Royston across the water) after looking for something cool to eat. The shop is relatively small, but had a good amount of gelato flavors. I went with blood orange and pistachio(weird combo) for my double cone: the orange was ok, but the pistachio was good(stick with the traditional flavors is always a good strategy). On a sunny day, not a bad place to stop for some gelato.

Rating des Ortes: 4 Comox, Canada
Definitely the best ice cream, ahem ^h^h^h Gelato you’ll find anywhere in the Comox Valley. Not only that but the location is great, inside and outside are airy and nice to relax at, and the employees are uniformly friendly and generous with their scoops(I’m pretty sure that generousity comes from the top). In fact, when we take our daughter here, we need to specifically ask for the not on the menu ‘extra-small’ child’s size ice cream, which is still huge. If you like ice cream you’ll like benino.
