The staff at this gelateria not only make their own gelato, but they also decorate it by hand every morning to entice customers. Varieties change daily, but options include California Craze blackberry drizzled with syrup and fresh berries, or the tiramisu speared with cinnamon sticks. Besides sweets, this laid-back cafe also offers Intelligentsia coffee, smoothies and panini, which you can snack on at one of the small tables or couches. Due to an influx of families snacking in the afternoon, one of the two flat-screen TVs is almost always tuned to kid stuff, but you can usually catch the news on the other set.

"Best Gelato Around"
By Joannana from Evanston, June 15, 2009
The gelato here is amazing and soooo pretty!!! It's like stepping into a little Italian gelato shoppe in Florence. The service is amazing and flavo...
