Just found out the hard way in Europe when you have a euro with a rip in it some venders won’t accept it, which almost happened here, but I stood my ground. The shop attendant was totally rude about it. We had been coming here...almost daily and he ruined our experience.More

Good selection of gelato, plus yogurt gelato. Reasonably priced. Small but nice sitting area. Both English and Italian. I would recommend it.

This shop was very close to our AirBnB, so we stopped for a gelato every night we were in Rome. Absolutely delicious gelato, reasonable prices and such a wide assortment of flavours to choose from.

Just had the most amazing gelato at the Gelatist in Rome! 🍦 When in Italy, indulging in this creamy delight is a must. The flavors are out of this world! I had to dark chocolate and mint chocolate chip scoops in a cup. Tasty!

We’ve been to at least 20 gelato shops all over Italy so far this summer. This one was by far the best! The fruit flavours will trick your mouth into thinking you’re eating the actual fruit. I recommend the limone, coconut, peach, mango, kiwi-lime.

Multitude of new flavors as well as classic gelato flavors. Smallest cup still allows for greater than one flavor to be chosen.

I have had my fair share of ice creams in my 25 years, but The Gelatist have the tastiest, creamiest and all round phenomenally tasting ice cream. I would HIGHLY recommend the Hazelnut Cream - get a medium. Large size if ridiculous and may be...sickly, so I kept to the small portion (which was huge)More

Very good company. Very nice frozen yogurt and the small one is for 2 people and it cost 3.5€. Ice cream also is very tasteful... Recommended place to be in Rome.

One of my foodie goals for my trip to Rome was to try gelato, and I'm so glad we picked The Gelatist, a little shop next door to our hotel. We chose two different flavours each - I picked the Strawberry and Mango Cheesecakes, and...Mr E had the Kinder, and the Cherries with Nuts (the vendor's personal favourite). While I really liked my selection, I did get to taste the Cherries one and she's right - it's amazing. Very reasonably priced, and don't be put off by the "piccolo size" - the scoops are generous. They take contactless/card transactions, and there's some seating indoors, but we chose to go for a walk with ours. Grazie! A lovely treat before we fly back tomorrow.More
