Qwelli - L'art du gelato

Open until 9 pm

(28)

Anjou-St-Léonard, Montreal-East

Ice Cream Desserts & Sweets

Review Summary

Overall, Qwelli - L'art du gelato receives praise for the orange sorbet and a wide range of flavors, but several reviews note understaffing and occasional delays, especially at the cafe area where only two workers handle both sections, including at the Galeries d'Anjou location. The gelatos are described as impressive, with grapefruit sorbet a standout, though the pistachio gelato is perceived as too sweet and the pistachio flavor not very noticeable. Cleanliness is mixed, with some tables not clean. Servers are friendly, and some reviewers would return for sorbet but avoid the gelato, reflecting personal preferences rather than a uniform verdict.View restaurant profile
