First time here and I loved it. Ive never had gelato before and this was so cool to try; it was like a stretchier version of Italian ice. The flavors were refreshing! The employee was so patient and it looked like he was by himself in the entire store. Hopefully he wasnt but great service nonetheless!

Adorable gelato spot in the heart of Ghent. A locals spot that supports local artist. Gelato was delicious and packed with flavor. They sell single portions and also containers to go. Super friendly staff. Some seating inside and outside.

All of the flavors that we had were delicious. The line was not long, service was quick and the staff were friendly. There is no indoor dining, Im assuming because of Covid.

Great place for gelatto and fresh juices. Their fresh juice beats Cold Pressed hands down. Lucky to have it in our neighborhood.

If your out of pints, maybe next time you offer the cups for the same price even you have scoop 4 cups. Just seems like it would be good customer service. Yes, the ice cream is great.

Went for Gelato. There werent many choices, but the consistency was good. Would go again if I was nearby. A little pricey for the sizes.

The best gelato and smoothie spot in Norfolk, hands down! My family from NJ loves it and makes a point to go here every time they come to visit. So many great flavors. Locally owned and amazing friendly staff :)

Amazing surprise - the Gelato experience you want to through, very smooth texture, vibrant tastes (all 6 we tried were amazing), no ice crystals.Really really good gelato 🍧, highly recommended.Thank you!Btw the Google Maps has incorrect pin for this place. The entrance is from the Colley Ave right in front of the italian restaurant.

Bought my employees gelato and smoothies. Service was fast and friendly, due to COVID you doing the bell and the transaction is outside. My smoothie was delicious and my special request was easily accommodated. Highly recommend.

Very tasty gelato. Fun flavors and good quality. Small storefront in a cool little section of town

Review №31

I really enjoy this place! Their gelato is absolutely delicious! Im never disappointed in what I get. Only 2 (minor) complaints: #1 its quite pricy, a small = 4.50, large = 6,00, & a pint to take home is more than $10. And #2 the flavors change daily, so theres been a few times Ive gone and not really been interested in any of the flavors. They do have chocolate and vanilla flavors daily, but thats not what Im looking for when I go out for ice cream / gelato.

Wonderful little gelato shop in Ghent. Always a good combination of classic flavours along with a variety of seasonal or unique offerings. They always have vegan offerings as well. Service is wonderful. I tried their garden herb gelato. Yummy.

Awesome joint. Had rolled ice cream which was pretty fun to watch made and eat. A ton of unlimited topings. I appreciate the non-dairy option and thought it was delicious. Jerome and Cat did a great job.

Easily the best gelato Ive ever had. The flavors rotate constantly, and I have yet to have a flavor that I did not enjoy. The pints are a solid pickup for dinners or parties. Every person Ive taken here has loved it.

Awesome authentic and homemade gelato. Ricotta fig is my favorite flavor but I always have a hard time choosing what I want because they are all delicious and fresh! Im so happy to have this place in the neighborhood!

Review №48

This place has THE BEST gelato! And sooo many delicious and often creative flavors, along with some staples. Everything is homemade. Prices are fair. The only draw back for me is they change flavors daily, so sometimes when we go, they dont have any flavors I really want, or they dont have the flavor I know I want.

De
Review №49

If youre looking for really yummy gelato, youre at the right place. They have a bunch of different flavors, not just the boring vanilla and chocolate. One of my favorites was the captain crunch one. I recommend getting it in a cone.Prices are very reasonable and they also sell points you can take home. I would also recommend getting a slice of their butter cake. Soooooo good.The place is small inside, but they do have a bench inside and a few seats outside.

I cannot say enough good about the flavors they dream up. Make sure to try the whisky pecan

Review №52

I wasnt very impressed with this place. I understand that they rotate flavors daily, but why wouldnt you post on your website or social media what your flavors will be for that day? I had always heard people raving about their gelato, and we get there and discover there was literally nothing worth trying. I seriously doubt I will return. Too many other places worth trying.

New flavors constantly! Gotta try em all!!! This place is a gem! I highly recommend checking it out. Once you do, you will be hooked!

Review №56

I’d like to say this is a perfect summer spot, but that’s a lie...because I go here year round. Great service and really cool flavors, from your usual chocolate/vanilla to some more out there stuff (lemon basil, fruity pebbles, raspberry mascarpone...banana pudding is my current favorite, but it changes every month I think). An awesome local business that’s totally worth a stop!

Review №57

I love Gelato! So i was really happy to find this place. They dont have a lot of different flavors like the Gelato places I am used to. But the quality and taste of the Gelato is delicious! Definitely recommend this place if you are looking for something sweet!

Review №58

I lived in Italy for several years and have gone back often to visit, so I consider myself well versed in Gelato. This place is as close as you get to the real thing around here. Always fresh and the best service around. Try it as I am sure you will agree. Flavors change daily.

I love the variety of flavors. My husband loves the smoothies. They are not afraid to experiment, but thats why you can sample in case you cant commit to an off the beaten path flavor. My favorite is the vanilla wafer and banana pudding.

I was so pleased when I went here, the service was great, they offered samples, they had a nice variety of gelato and it was really good, they also have good smoothies, another thing they have is açaí bowls you know like smoothie bowls which is also nice, I didn’t realize how small the location was gonna be but it was still nice and clean and inviting, this will now be one of my favorite places it’s like on that same level of sweet frog but without all the different toppings, I definitely recommend checking this place out, it’s great

The gelato was excellent and the staff was absolutely fun to talk to. I had the Eggnog and Gingerbread gelato. Prices arent bad at all. Rest assured, the only way you can blow a fortune here is if youre buying for the whole neighborhood or just really gunning for that sugar coma or Type-1 Diabetes. Consider me a regular customer!

Awesome flavors, Awesome Staff, and how fast the line formed for this little restaurant was so fast it seemed Gelato was going out of business and this was the last day to get it. So it was pretty cool overall.👍

Ive been to this place several times, and each time I have a pleasant experience. Im a big fan of the acai bowls. They are very filling and definitely a meal replacement. They cycle through different flavors of gelato daily, so be sure to come in often to see what they have new.

If youre looking for delicious and fresh gelato or smoothies, definitely give Strawberry Fields a go. The flavor choices range from the safe traditionals to unique and daring. Sample something you wouldnt normally try and live a little! The produce is right there for smoothies, so you know they arent made with syrups or other processed bases. Friendly people and fair prices round out the 5 star rating.

Great service and the gelato is made with real fresh ingredients. However the consistency was icy, almost low fat tasting — not creamy at all. After comparing this with other gelato Ive had, this left me very disappointed.

I dont shop for gelato for myself at this place but Ive heard that they are amazing. They are pretty expensive which is why I dont shop there because Im too poor for that but I deliver for doordash and Postmates and I go there all the time. They have a pretty good selection of gelatos and they do a lot there for the place to be so tiny. I will actually try their gelato when I have a little extra money on me but the staff is very friendly and well answer any question you have.
