Gelato Spot

My family and I LOVE this location of Gelato Spot! Not only do we LOVE the gelato but they have several non-​dairy options for those of us with dietary restrictions. The staff have always been extremely kind, patient and friendly. My son has a dairy ALLERGY (among other medical issues) and I am vegan — sometimes this makes for difficult conversations with eating establishments but the bright and kind young ladies who work there recognize him and go out of their way to make him feel important and special. They will purposefully use newly cleaned scoopers to scoop from batches that haven’t had any cross contamination with dairy. We don’t even have to ask anymore because they make sure to do what they can to keep my son safe. They always point out any new fruit, non-​dairy flavors and they offer to make smoothies for him with what he can have. They treat my son’s allergies with seriousness and as much care as possible. I am very grateful for how wonderful they are to him and the rest of the family! Very special people!!! We can find good gelato a few places but we go back to this location constantly because of the caring staff.

Pumpkin mixed with cheesecake!!! My only complaint about The Gelato Spot is that they have ruined all other gelato for me… seriously. it is all gross now except for theirs… It seems like they always have good people working here also, with a genuine smile, and they love what they do :) thank you so much guys, please keep making the freshest best tasting gelato in town!

They have a excellent variety of gelato. They even have some for those that are vegan by using coconut milk. This place does a little decoration for the holidays and is right next to a good pizza place. I have tried a few flavors and they were all good especially the vegan chocolate.

Love this place! I wish the thin mint would be year round! Mix that and chocolate ice cream together — heaven!

Literally I didn’t find any difference between gelato and a normal good quality ice cream. before experiencing I used to hear a lot about gelato and it’s authenticity. But poor me, i couldn’t able to understand the difference. But I love ice cream and they have a good variety so definitely a thumbs up.

Killer gelato! Yum:). Staff was friendly and let us try a few samples before. Def going back!

Amazing and good and will always be my favorite place to go and it’s hard to find really good gelato just like this place

The name definitely does not speak for what they serve. After having authentic gelato, this is merely ice cream. The ice cream had great flavor, but was expecting gelato. Cooled me off though in the summer heat so they got another star for that.

Good place, terrible prices. Great gelato, nice atmosphere, clean bathrooms, nice place to sit… but $ 5 for an ice cream cone

Reminds me of a gelato place in philly. I had straciatello and it was great.

Amazing! Oh, the flavors. Even the «plain» chocolate is richer than haagen daas ice cream — or any ice cream I’ve had, for that matter. If you’re craving chocolate this is what you need.
The raspberry is tart and perfect — real raspberries are evident by the texture Coconut makes all of your dreams come true and I can’t even describe the Stracciatella. Sweet cream gelato with chocolate bits. An extra cookie on top and you’re set!
The cherry on top (pun absolutely intended) is the staff — always efficient, friendly, and happy to let you taste… and taste… and taste each flavor until you finally force yourself to pick just one (or two :))

Came here (a couple times) for a treat for the little one. The variety here is spectacular. Flavours are great. Cool to see how many local restaurants have either created or use their flavours in their restaurants.
A must see

I was in the mood for something ice creamy today, but vegan options are limited in the N Scottsdale area. I was over in this area, so I decided to give The Gelato Spot a try.
Admittedly, I’m a bit of a food snob, so I tend to ignore gelato in the U.S., thinking, «Oh no. I only eat gelato whilst in Italy.» *posh British voice* Well, shame on me! Thanks to the Gelato Wars, they had a Vegan Chocolate gelato with smoked almonds and caramel. It was so creamy/​dreamy and delicious! I’m not a fan of nuts, but their presence in this flavor wasn’t profound, so it didn’t bother me.
They also had 6 fruity flavors, which were all vegan: mango, pineapple, banana, raspberry, strawberry, & lemon. I sampled the pineapple, and it was also very smooth, creamy, and delicious. I plan to get that one next time. It was very fresh too. No freezer burn ’round these parts!
I got a medium-​sized cup and DD got a waffle cone. (I do not yet know if their cones are vegan-​friendly. I’ll update once I get confirmation on that.) My total was a $ 10 + change. I’ll have to keep my eye open for the Groupon deals everyone’s talking about.
My hope is that they keep the chocolate vegan gelato option, and/​or expand their non-​fruity vegan options.
Ample inside seating, including a cozy little area that’s reminiscent of a living room. There are a handful of outside tables as well.
Located in the shopping area on the NE corner of Greenway & 40^th, next door to Starbucks, & across the street from the QT/​Sonic.
Yummy vegan gelato!

This has to be one of the best places around to grab a quick frozen treat. This location is always busy with families and kids running around. the amount of kids can sometimes make for a little bit of a wait to select the gelato you want, but it’s a small price to pay for the sugary goodness that is Gelato.
I tried the Coconut and chocolate salted caramel. Both were simply amazing and super creamy. I have no idea how they incorperate the saltyness into the gelato but when you take a bit you taste every bit of the salt, caramel, chocolate and everything else. the coconut had real flake of coconut inside and wasn’t too sweet at all. Absolutely love this place!

Love Gelato Spot!
The Gelato is delicious, the selection is amazing, the staff is fun and friendly, the location is perfect, and the place is clean. there is outdoor seating, which is great when the weather is nice.
A perfect combination!

Great gelato, my second time I was shocked how good the Sea Salt Caramello was. And they hire the most pleasant people

Creamy, smooth gelato. Great variety of favors and they give samples. Their décor, sitting area, and restroom were a little dirty and beat up.

We’ve gone here a few times using a Groupon. The gelato is definitely good and there are tons of different flavors. It’s really pricey, though, for what it is. Two tiny scoops for around $ 5. With the Groupon it’s a decent deal, but I don’t know that I’d go and pay normal price. They do give you tiny spoons, so it makes you slow down and savor the taste a little, instead of just shoveling.
They offer free wifi, and there are power outlets everywhere for plugging your computer, tablet or phone into. There is plenty of seating, both inside and outside.
So it’s four stars for the delicious gelato with a discount. I’d probably rate it three if I paid full price.

The employees here are proud of their product — for good reason! It’s just so super good, every flavor, every time! If gelato has not yet made it’s way across your lips, the time is now to make it right. Creamy, fresh ingredients are so indulgent you don’t need but a few ounces. My favorite is the sea salt caramel but have also enjoyed choc mint and black cherry cream. As for the sorbet, flavors include pineapple, mango, & strawberry — all refreshing and without the dairy. Treat someone you love today to the G-​spot.

Staff is always really nice and will let you try any flavor to be sure you get what you want. They have Groupons regularly that are $ 5 for 2 medium cups of ice cream — which a great deal, since that would run you about $ 10 if you purchased it the old fashion way.
The plain chocolate is to die for and the fact that it’s better for you than ice cream is just a bonus on a hot Phoenix day!
Overall: A+
