"In einer kleinen Gasse gelegen befindet sich diese kleine Gelateria. Das Eis war sehr lecker und die Preise moderat für vier Eisbecher to-go haben wir 12€ gezahlt. Gegessen haben wir es direkt nebenan auf einer Treppenstufe, da es keine Terrasse und Stühle gibt. Die Eisverkäuferin war leider nicht sehr freundlich und eher wortkarg aufgelegt, aber da wir wg dem Eis und nicht ihr da waren gibt's volle 5 Sterne."

"Hello Guys, this was clearly the best gelato in Arenzano. I tried the flavors sorbe basilico, pistachio, fiore di latte and limone. All of them were top notch. The price was 2,50€ for a medium sized cone or cup. Even though the offer is small, the flavors are amazing and the ice cream is served out of silver cups with a lid which is a good indication for a high quality ice. Highly recommend it!"

"Piccola gelateria di Arenzano, lungo i vicoli del centro. Pessaggiando non è difficile non trovarlo. Credo sia una gelateria artigianale. All'esterno espongono i gusti dei gelati disponibili della giornata, si viene serviti da fuori attraverso una finestra, come fosse un chioschetto. Si può gustarlo tranquillamente passeggiando o sedendosi lungo i gradini vicino al locale. Gelato molto buono e gustoso. I prezzi nella media e direi accessibili. Personale gentile e disponibile. Non ho visto dei tavolini per sedersi (o probabilmente ci si può sedere dentro ma non ho fatto caso ) 5 STELLE per il gelato li merita tutti"

"Il locale in sé è piccolissimo, non presenta tavoli esterni e i gusti non sono molto. Il gelato però era davvero ottimo, consigliato per chi vuole un ottimo prodotto artigianale."

"It really deserves the rating! Might be the best gelato I've ever tried. You should also consider getting traditional flavours like basilico and capriccio. Gelso is amazing too. If you're in this town, you should definitely come and taste at least once. Small:1.5€ and Medium:2.5€."
