"Pistachio and the Amalfi ice creams are the best Large tub for 5EUROS. Ice cream wasn't too sweet, delicious. Self service but seating inside. Great service even though there's a queue. Highly recommended"

"Amazing place to have a tasty ice cream. The girls who were serving us today were nice. I loved the lemon and pistachio flavour but the other ones looked amazing! All the pastry and cookies looked amazing too but we didn’t try them today. We had a coffee which was delicious too. Clean and tidy place. If you are around pop in!"

"A nice little gelateria. Plenty of flavours to choose from, with generous servings for the price. It requires you to pay first before ordering, but this process was pleasantly explained to us by the friendly staff. Highly recommend grabbing some Gelato from here before your walk along the coast."

"If you can consider a gelato place "up-scale," this is it. The prices are a bit higher than average, but the flavors are like eating the real thing and the servings are generous. Pistachio and stracciatella are particularly delicious."

"When I'm in Barcelona , the dessert I eat the most is gelato . So when in Italy , what else could I have? After our last lunch in Napoli , we headed to a parlor nearby, Desio Gelato & Pastry, located on the ground floor of the Royal Continental Hotel. The venue is nice but we decided to have our gelato to go and keep walking towards the city center. Each of us had a 2⃣-scoop cone. One of the cool things in Italy is that gelato is cheap so we don't need to share a 4 or 5 scoop gelato to save money. This one in particular wasn't too cheap compared to other places in Napoli (or in Italy , in fact): €3 for a rather small cone. But in Barcelona , this would be something like €5 nowadays... The flavors I tried were good, except the Nutella and peanut one maybe, but that's understandable... have you ever had cold Nutella? That's not great. The cream wasn't too sweet and its texture was good although it melted pretty fast... and it was still Winter! Overall it was a pretty satisfying experience but... what about the presentation?! I've never seen such terrible scoops. The only explanation I see is that it was the clerk's first day serving gelato . What a mess! Quality & taste: 8/10 Quantities: 6/10 Atmosphere: n/a Originality: 7/10 Ratio price / quality: 6/10 Service: 3/10 How I felt afterwards: 7/10"

"I can’t say enough wonderful things about this gelato shop! I’ve been coming here almost every other day during my stay in Naples, and it has quickly become one of my favorite parts of the trip. The gelato is absolutely incredible — Lotto is a true standout, but honestly every flavor I’ve tried has been amazing. The staff makes the experience even more special — they’re so friendly, welcoming, and always greet you with a smile that makes you feel like a local. It’s the kind of place you leave happier than when you walked in. I also love that they’re open until midnight every day — perfect for a late-night gelato run after wandering the beautiful streets of Naples. If you’re in the city, this is a must-visit spot. Sweet, authentic, and full of joy!"
