Small gelato and coffee shop with a great variety of flavours including some uncommon options. The amaretto was so good, and service was great. Super happy with our visit and will stop occasionally while in UTC in the future
Bottega Italian is a real Italian gelato and coffee place. Insider and outdoor seatings are available. They use illy's coffee. The gelato is very popular.
Great gelato place in UTC Mall. I like that they have unusual flavors like kiwi cream and marscapone lemon, which were delicious! Their regular chocolate flavor was just okay. They also sell all of the local chocolatier chuao bars!
BEST GELATO IVE EVER HAD! I got the pistacchio and the mascarpone and lemon and it was chefs kiss! Generous servings and great price. Great location! Nice staff! Will be back!
After countless times of passing by this shop, we finally made the decision to stop and check it out. The wide array of flavors they offered made it quite challenging for us to make a choice. However, the staff members were incredibly kind and allowed us to sample a few different options. We were particularly intrigued by their vanilla, which had a surprising black appearance but still delivered a delightfully rich vanilla flavor.
We passed by this shop so many times and finally stopped by. They had many flavors to select from, which made it difficult for us to decide what to get. The staff were so kind that we tried a few different samples. Their vanilla was surprisingly black! (still brought rich vanilla flavor)
Great mochas. Good service. They are located right by the underground parking entrance. They use illy's coffee beans and some good chocolate. As for gelato, we tried a small cup with mango and watermelon flavors. Watermelon was too sweet, but the mango was great with tangy flavor. However, it wasn't as creamy as I expect from a gelato. There is a seating outside.
Would have preferred no basil 🌿 with the raspberry ice cream. Not a great match.
I kid you not, this place did Gelato just right. I have had Gelatos around Down Town and even the popular stores in Little Italy downtown, but this place remain my favorite. The quality is just spot on. Must try flavor: Pear, Coffee, Speciale.
Unique flavors of gelato offered here like passion fruit and pineapple! I have tried hazelnut and mango gelato here. It was creamy, smooth and absolutely delicious! Wish the cups came with lids though! Looking forward to try different flavors next time! :)
