The gelato was genuinely excellent. It had that rich, creamy texture you'd expect from real gelato, & the flavors actually tasted like what they were supposed to. The flavored options were especially enjoyable-mango, cinnamon, dark chocolate, pistachio, & the other seasonal flavors were all delicious.
If you have a sweet tooth, you'll probably love it. For me, though, two scoops ended up being a bit too sweet. It would be great to have a simple flavor like plain vanilla or fior di latte on the menu to help balance the sweeter options.
Overall, a great spot with delicious, creamy gelato & fantastic flavors. I'd definitely come back.

After a great dinner at Ristorante Donato, my wife & I decided to extend the Donato experience with a visit to Donato Gelato a few blocks away. The location is fantastic, right near Westmount Park, making it the perfect spot to grab a gelato & enjoy a nice walk through the neighborhood.

The selection is great, with plenty of options for everyone. I had the pistachio & my wife had the pear, & both were delicious. The service was also very friendly & welcoming.

Overall, a fantastic gelato spot in a beautiful & upscale neighborhood. Definitely worth a visit.

What a great little spot & a wonderful find. The gelato tasted really fresh. Not sure if they make it on the spot but it definitely taste like they do. There was a huge dog inside right near the cash where people are tasting the gelato. It made some folks uncomfortable, It's too bad. Otherwise the staff is also very friendly & there is a nice seating area outside.
