Absolutely loved the Gelato from here. It's a quite popular place. We had to wait for 20 mins to get in. There's a long line but it moves fairly fast. You can ask for a sample before buying. I got the large cone. You can add upto 3 flavors in one cone for the same price! And the portions are quite generous. I would recommend getting two flavors cos I was struggling to finish three. I got the Pistachio, Coffee and Cookies and Cream. I loved the Pistachio and Cookies and Cream. I highly recommend these two. Coffee was alright too. The waffle cone is delicious.
We have been coming here for 2 years, and we drove 30 minutes just to get ice cream. We have been getting a huge amount of ice cream in the past, but today, we feel a bit uncomfortable with the girl behind the counter. She seems irritated, and she seems like she had a bad day.
We hurry up and place the order and pay so we can leave.
Wow, by far the best gelato I have had for a while. It's creamy and tasty. Be prepared to wait about 15 mins and the line looks really long but it goes fast. We waited in line for about 15 mins and it was from the main street. The hazelnut and coffee flavor is my favorite. We come here every time we are in Laguna Beach.
I got my food pretty fast, they had about 3 staff working there. My party of three got served in less then five minuetes I’d say. The smell in there was just amazing. Their waffles cones were definitely great even though I could t finish it. The gelato was so yummy and all of it was very filling!
Often a long line to get into this tucked away, tiny shop off of a little alleyway through a larger building. It's worth most waits for their big selection of sorbets and gelatos. The large sized waffle cone is huge and a delicious challenge to finish before it melts all over your hand.
Grab a frosty treat and take a short walk down to the beach or stroll around the nearby shops.
I've been coming here for years and was never disappointed. That being said, on my last visit I noticed that the cookies and cream flavor had much less cookie in the cream and was oddly watery in the flavor. I have always raved about this spot in Laguna so I was a big disappointed that the flavor was different. I will continue to visit in hopes of the flavor returning to what it had been in my memories.
If you are ever in Laguna you must go here for ice cream. The line is insane but so worth the wait!! it's actually gelato which is way better and creamier than ice cream...and the choice of flavours will have you sampling everything before you make a choice.
Being an “expert” in ice cream. This Gelato stuff was pretty good. Conveniently located off Laguna beach, easy parking and so many flavors to choose from. A+
We recently visited Gelato Paradiso and was blown away by the incredible selection of delicious ice cream flavours. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and patiently helped me navigate the extensive menu to find the perfect combination of flavors for my cone.
The ice cream itself was creamy, rich, and absolutely delicious. I especially loved the hazelnut and pistachio flavors, which were packed with flavor and tasted incredibly fresh. The portion sizes were generous, and the prices were very reasonable for the high quality of the ice cream.
Overall, I would highly recommend Gelato Paradiso to anyone looking for high-quality in a welcoming and inviting atmosphere. The flavors are incredible, the staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and the prices are very reasonable. Don't miss out on this gem of an ice cream shop!
A delicious gelato shop is tucked away in the Peppertree Lane alley (look for the green building on the California 1 highway). They have about a dozen and a half gelato flavors and about eight sorbets available. As a fan of sorbet, I did enjoy their forest fruit flavor which was a mix of different berries and I loved how well whipped it was with very little texture to the natural seeds of the pureed fruit.
Very friendly staff and quick to provide service. This location, however, is extremely busy, with lines often reaching out to the highway. Honestly though it's quite worth it. If you're looking for good parking, make sure you take the time just to find an open lot versus trying to find anywhere along the streets. Also make sure to find some good shade once you get your treat, because the soft (but very tasty) gelato and sorbet will melt quite quickly.
