Amorino Gelato Reviews Summary

Gelato Quality

• "The dark chocolate was a bit too sweet for me."
• "The ice cream is also creamier in London - here tastes more watery."

• "Very very rude staff, before I buy usually I prefer to try a few new flavors, but this time I've been told to buy an ice cream first (without trying anything)."
• "It was my first time in Amorino and I was so excited to try but the female worker was so rude to me."

Presentation and Ambience

Pros:

• "Loved the presentation for signature cone."
• "If you go for just the gelato, get it in a cone so they can serve it in petals - I'm convinced it tastes better that way."
• "This place has one of the best tasting gelato in the city and the technique that goes into creating the flower shape on the cone is outstanding!"
• "The rose petal presentation is prime for IG and blog posts, and it's just straight up fun to eat."
• "The ice cream creations looked absolutely amazing and were undoubtedly a feast for the eyes."
• "They do a beautiful job making a flower of the flavors."
• "Each scoop was artistically arranged in the shape of a flower, creating an eye-catching display."

Cons:

• "It’s a tiny spot, so not a lot of seating but it’s a very full ambience."
• "Not very many but in store seating available."
• "Here not sure but the flower doesn't resemble anything which the brand stands for, pretty loveless the ice cream petals were clasped on."
• "The layout is tough, you order your size and after paying you can try flavors and build your dish, while the 10 people in front of you do the same."
• "The flower ended up making me feel like I couldn’t savor the flavors separately, so it’s all about to combo!"
• "It feels an old and deserted place... Avoid it if you can... It must be a franchise, not owner and managed by corporate."
• "Given what they charge here, you get a hollow cone and some ice cream on the top for a classic cone?! Pretty disappointing effort and a rip off."

Value

Pros:

• "A bit pricey considering I got a small cup but seems like you get more for less money as you get bigger sizes."
• "This is a good place to get gelato at a decent price."
• "Amorino is a little expensive but it’s a nice treat with family."
• "It is $10 for a large flavor with a macaroon."
• "The items are reasonably priced (NYC standards), the portions generous."
• "The value for the price seems fair to me."
• "Loved this place! Delicious gelato and sorbet, beautifully presented, at a reasonable price."

Cons:

• "Overpriced, as these places usually are, but the kids love it (and I do too)"
• "When u buy a small cone, its advertised that you can add all the flavors on that one small cone, but it's a scam."
• "Gilatto was ok but the audacity of pushing for tips was a bit much."
• "It's a bit more $ than downtown."
• "Slightly expensive but worth it."
