Pappalecco

I still give the gelato edge to Bobboi in La Jolla, but this place gives them a run for their money. Could see this place having the best gelato in Little Italy. Tiramisu was also good.

This place just got a brand new face lift! On Wednesday they have a special, 50% all paninis ! You can make it a soup/salad combo. The staff is super sweet and the coffee is super strong!

Best gelato and best espresso/coffee you'll find in the city . One location in hillcrest and also in little Italy. Often you'll find Italians there, very authentic . My very favorite coffee shop !!!

This is place is my favorite to visit in San Diego. Great decor, amazing service, and food is to die for. Authentic Italian feel and people are so nice!

I could get addicted to the food, the hospitality and the sound of Italian. Get an extra side of balsamic glaze for your breakfast potatoes .

The best gelato I've ever had! 3 flavors: papalecco's, pistachio , and hazelnut . And also a perfectly dry double cappuccino with almond biscotti !

I had the best breakfast ever. Coffee and gelato absolutely great.

Top-notch gelato . The pistachio and the pappalecco are must tries! A small cup is $4.50 but well worth it. Avoid the strawberry .

Arguably the best gelato in San Diego but DEFINITELY the best gelato in Little Italy. Do your taste buds a favor, avoid the inferior product on India Street and stop in here. You'll be glad you did.

This is a true Italian experience. Pistachio is the test of a great gelato place: theirs is perfect. The espresso is Danesi, so it has robusta. Therefore, you need milk : macchiato or cappuccino .

The Pistachio gelato is AMAZING! You cannot go wrong with this flavor! Your tastebuds will thank you :)

Gelato was the best I've ever had. So authentic and a wide variety of flavors! Will be back to explore more !!

Everything is amazing here. Try the paninis (with extra balsamic glaze ) and the gelato ... The pastries are great too. Oh and don't forget to get some delicious coffee !!

Authentic Italian gelato ! Can't go wrong with any flavor.

Great gelato , good strong coffee , excellent service

Loved the veggie focaccia and the crostata Nutella . The passion fruit iced tea is mild yet delicious.

Best Gelato in San Diego . Plus, the atmosphere makes you feel like you are truly in Italy. Molto delizioso!

Best pistachio ice cream/gelato I think I've ever had. Wasn't impressed with the dark chocolate though - tasted like sorbet .

#frutti di bosco is so good! And the ppl here are so friendly ! Also the #zucca is pretty darn good too!

Gelato , coffee , Italian a pastries . The place did not disappoint.

Italians can't ask for more.. Definitely recommended for those who love the true Italian gelato !

Strawberry Gelato here is really good, and probably the best customer service we've received in a while.

Nutella gelato is special. I cant say the same for other flavors, especially fruity ones are not consistently well .

Delicious gelatto!!!! After you pay you can try all flavors before you decide.

Gelato , coffee , Italian pastries , Canoli 's.

Cute spot with fun flavors of gelato . They employees are super nice.

The ice cream is so good, and the italian coffee latte is outstanding

Need to learn Italian...it's a verbal challenge each time...I freakin love it????????

There's more than just coffee and ice cream . They also have delicious sandwiches (including breakfast)

Coffee + Chocolate gelato is simply bomb

Try the Mare Breakfast - Salmon , fresh mozzarella , zucchini , greens, eggs , potatoes & Italian bread . Yum.

Absolutely the best gelato in town . Discovered it last year and remembered to return this year. Fabulous! Closes at 9:30 pm.

Pappalecco flavor is basically tiramisu , it goes well with pistachios ????

Italian sodas are good and the gelato .

Really good ice cream for a reasonable price! (2 scoops for 5$)

One of the best gelato I've had this side of the Atlantic!

Awesome gelato , the nutella was a bit rich foor my blood, but still delicious!

Amazing coffee and canoli . Great for breakfast

I got the perfect breakfast ???? scrambled egg with baked salmon .

Affigato is a great caffeine & sugar fix in a cup!

Great ice cream in the town loved coffee flavor .

Iced Chai tea latte is awesome with almond milk !!

Must try the marocchino... espresso , nutella & frothy milk amazingness!!!

Beyond the expectations! It has European style in everything!

Friendly staff and delicious gelati !

Gelato on a croissant . I would have never thought of it, but it's fantastic!

Awesome service! And Amazing Delicious Flavors

Probably best gelato I've ever had!

Small, quaint and true to all things Italian!

Gelato heaven! Hazelnut and pistachio were delish.
