Reviews of Gelati Celesti Ice Cream

Matthew

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Delicious flavors but expect to pay for the quality. You get what you pay for and this place delivers on the flavors and variety, but don’t expect a lower class ice cream store price.

Jasmine Austin

The ice cream was creamy and delicious! The staff there were friendly and very informative! They give samples and know all the flavors! I love how the young lady made recommendations and I loved the one she picked. I will go back again!

Jessica Cobourn

The coffee and cream ice cream is amazing. The oreo flavor has huge chunks of oreo, so good! We'll definitely be back.

Isaac AA Jr

This sweets shop is always a must stop when your in the area. The one thing I really enjoy is the drive thru alley thru have complete with lights overhead. This shop sits between the mattress shop and next to Nawab. The shop has a ton of standard and rotating flavors like blueberry lemonade sorbetto, sour cherry marscapone, or almond mocha chip. My best tip is to try a few samples if you're indecisive and get a small cup that you can mix two flavors. Everytime I've gone the flavors never disappoint and the service is friendly. So scoop yourself over for a sweet taste of gelati!

Simran M

easy 5/5 stars!! the people who work there are so nice and the ice cream is amazing! not to mention the interior is adorable (pics included). will definitely be back!

Franklin Hamilton

Let Me Tell You How Great, Well Phenomenal It Is. I just today brought a BUCKET 🪣 of it today for $90. Pow, that's more than enough to justify, to atone for those 5 stars 🌟 🤩 ✨️ up there! …

Nicole R.

Ice cream was delicious and very creamy. They had a drive thru as well. The service was not great. They were cleaning when we walked in at around 8:40 and they seemed bothered that we were there which I didn’t understand as they don’t close till 10pm. Great ice cream just not a welcoming atmosphere. There was also plenty of parking and reasonably priced ice cream. Due to COVID all indoor seating is closed and you’re unable to try the flavors. They had 2 outdoor benches at their entrance which were open and provided an option to enjoy the ice cream without having to eat it in the car .

Wow wow wow! Talk about a great staple in our community. Not only do they sell some amazing flavors and offer to go pints and cakes, but they give back to our amazing community at Hilltop. They announced they would be ordering Girl Scout Cookies from our local girls to make a spring flavor to offer to customers. Can't wait to try the flavor. Got to try them out!!

Tasha Lee

Discovered this place on a Sunday afternoon by fate. I went to the area to visit the Indian restaurant (which was closed). This place is right next door. I walked in, was acknowledged, tested some ice cream, purchased the butter pecan & chocolate ice cream scoops on a waffle cone. My experience was nice. The staff (the manager in a pink shirt who assisted me) is pleasant w/ conversation courtesy, and the ice cream is flavorful. Price is reasonable & the place was clean.

Peach Perrychute

Awesome, creative flavors! Decor inside is fun. They have a grab and take home freezer, too. We also grabbed a giftcard for family friends.

Kirk Tower

Excellent service, delicious products!!! Thanks for your duty and calling to serve, feed people such deliciousness!!! Thanks

Will Bailey

The ice-cream here was incredible. We only got the vanilla but it was delicious. Staff was friendly and attentive. They have a drive through window we may use next visit.

Leslie Rueff

Absolutely delicious. We have tried so many of the flavors and there isn’t even a mediocre one! The service here is beyond attentive and kind, and they were even kind when I sampled 3 flavors on our first visit. The big winners for us are Panda (refreshing coconut, which really surprised all of us!), Espresso Chip (chunky chips!), strawberry (SO FRESH TASTING), and chocolate peanut butter (real peanut butter, yum). My go-to now is the chocolate decadence which is wonderfully rich and full of chocolate flavor. We prefer the toddler size scoop for our family, and we split the toddler for our two young kids.

Michael Brown

The best ice cream ever!!!!! ...My only request is to have Strawberry Cheesecake and Key Lime Pie ALL Year Round...Charge me Extra I don't care!!!!!

Jessica Sterling

Best Gelati Celesti location in hampton roads!!! Love the staff here. Everytime I come in I usually see the same girl and she’s so helpful & nice. I can’t get enough gelati celesti, I’m here on a weekly basis almost. LOL. Love supporting them anytime I have an frozen treat craving :)

Joe Kabatek

Great little ice cream place. Been here twice and was impressed both times. I'll be back again and would recommend.

John Helms

Some of the best ice cream our family has ever had!

DeAnn Walls

This is my favorite gelato place between Tennessee and Virginia Beach. Always so many selections and the option to take some prepackaged flavors home with you.

Perry

First time there and had great service as well as the ice cream. The flavors were plentiful and very flavorful. Will definitely go back there.

Hugh Martin

This place is amazing besides all their wonderful choices of to die for icecream. The amazing staff really sets them apart. As soon as you enter the door. You hear welcome thank you very much for coming in. That alone just is amazing. Whens the last time someone said sincerely thank you for coming in and they are happy to help you in any way possible. 5 stars ...this place is just a little slice of heaven. Guest for life and thank you for all the wonderful experiences.

I love their ice cream themed decor, but the ice cream is good too.

Junius Gregory

Amazing flavors! So many delicious dessert options and combinations! Well worth the price.

S G

Yummy ice cream. And a drive thru?! Yesss! Suggestion: a cone not a cup...you get more bang for the buck.

Danielle Phillips

Absolutely amazon! The best around! Pricing is spot on! Myself and my bf get 3 scoops each an i paid $14 some change. So about $6-$7 . Hands down the best! Service was great! Super friendly! Didnt wait to long in line. Go get some now! DELICIOUS!!!!

John Quinn

Experience was wonderful. A young girl was working alone this afternoon and was really busy. She handled it like a pro. The smile never left her face as she greeted everyone

Madison OHara

The girls working there today were very sweet, the spot was very clean, and I was a little overwhelmed with options. I was leaning towards almond joy even though I don’t like almonds and the girl suggested coconut cream with chocolate chips and it was awesome. My friend was impressed with hers as well. Definitely my new favorite ice cream spot.

Cameron Sy

Bright. Airy. Friendly. Great Italian-style ice cream (Gelato).

Wendy Joy Tuttle

Delicious product!! Excellent variety of flavors, some surprising and creative. Sales personnel were pleasant and attentive. The drive-thru option is a great additional service.

Sea Stories

This is the place to be! Wonderful, friendly service. It's clean and there's a social atmosphere ... people talking inside and outside. They have fun ice cream flavor names and the taste ... whoa! There's always a line and that's saying something ... but their service is fast. Did I mention the taste of the ice cream? Whoa. Delicious!

f martinez

B E S T 🍦🍨 E V E R BAKLAVA ALMOND AMARETTO BANANA RED VELVET OREO I always keep my fridge stocked with gelato. Call ahead to have your order ready for pickup😊

Joseph Morra

At first there is a little price shock, but with the amount of Ice Cream they give you it's really a great deal and the Ice Cream is great. Highly Recommend.

Ray F

Stopped by this place twice while in Virginia beach in August. The ice cream was amazing. The entire family loved it. They also had so many options as well.

Thusha

Can I give you guys 10 stars? Love the variety of flavors we get to choose from! My personal favorites are a just ask, Panda and cake batter!!

Lisa McKinney

Delicious as usual! They had a new.lemon basal sorbert that was fantastic 👏!! I love this place!!! The staff is always nice too! …

Maeleah Mullins

The gelato is amazing here along with the homemade waffle cones. The staff is super sweet. My child has severe food allergies and they opened up a fresh carton of gelato to give her a scoop from. Highly recommend this place! Thanks again

Sean Michael's

Best place for ice-cream with fin flavors and super nice staff.

Ashley Spann

This is our new favorite ice cream place in Virginia Beach. It is a short drive from the oceanfront and it is simply delicious. Extra smooth and creamy flavors are constantly changing and served up with very friendly service. Water based/Italian ice style flavors and pints are available. There is a drive through and benches for outdoor dinning.

Jim Laurance

Great ice cream, friendly staff

Zack Lockard

Honestly the best ice cream I’ve ever had!! Found this place driving home from the beach. Will definitely be back

Judy Harrell

Best Gelati (Italian ice cream) in Hampton Roads (757). Very good comparison to "ice cream" all over Italy. It is better than USA ice cream. The recipes are different & they are kept at a different temperature.

Alethia Tisinger

Took the kids and they loved it. I got the pralines and cream it was so delicious. We will be back to try more flavors.

Kimberly Adams

This is a very tiny place with a small seating area, right next to Nawab's up at the Hilltop area. Their gelato is scrumptious! They have a pretty wide selection of flavors, my personal favorites being their coffee and banana. My wife was delighted with their creamy Turtle flavor (chocolate, Carmel and pecans). You can have your choice of cones: sugar, cake or waffle. You also have the option of getting it in a cup. The smallest size serving is kid, which is still a generous scoop! If you're not into gelato, they always have a couple of flavors of sorbet. Highly recommended!

Anjum Iqbal

Very delicious ice cream 🍦 …

Harris Baloch

This is hands down the best ice cream in Virginia Beach - no in the state of Virginia. It’s soft, delicious and does not feel super heavy. Had the mango and it was clearly made from real mangoes. Definitely recommended ice cream shop.

Harry Sharp

Great spot for gourmet ice cream. Wide variety of flavors and incredible staff.

Terry

The best ice cream in Hampton Roads!

Keith Markowitz

Wow. Really good Gelato with a better selection of flavors. Staff were pretty engaged and enthusiastic. Very clean place. However, closing the restrooms to customers is pretty annoying. I saw a staff member use one, so I know they are working. Health regs aren't forcing restrooms closed...

Annette Hunter

This ice cream is amazing, not kidding. Best I have ever had.

Donny

This is the best Ice Cream that I've ever had in my life!! My favorite so far is the Chocolate Orange Decadence!!😋 Your staff is AWESOME, friendly, professional, courteous and knowledgeable of your Ice Cream. YOU SHOULD REALLY DO SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR YOUR STAFF!! KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB!!!!!

Alannah Ferris

Amazing ice cream and lovely environment!! The ladies working here are so fun and you can tell they enjoy it 💕 will visit again next time in the area. …

Yvonne Boykin

Excellent ice cream & friendly service! Will definitely go back for more!

Emily Elizabeth

Great ice cream and great service - even on a night when they had a crazy line outside! Very dense and rich flavors, cannot wait to come back and try more!

KC Ford

This is by far some of the best ice cream/gelato I've had. The texture is creamy and the flavors are delicious. Wonderful customer service. I will definitely be back before my vacation ends.

Sophia Espinoza

Homeade unique flavors! What more could you ask for?!

Eric Magnell

Absolutely wonderful gelato. We came in right after they had made a batch of waffle cones and the smell was mouthwatering. The gelato flavors were perfect. Just go and try it out.

Nicole Hancock

Legit one of the best places in VB for ice cream. There's a lot to choose from and the flavors taste so smooth. Great job to the ladies that work here at night ensuring good service.

Sammi Collins

ALWAYS delicious! Had a Sundae IND a wafflecone. Decadent deliciousness! 🥰 …

Heather Shannon

1000% the best (IMHO) ice cream around! The flavors are always interesting and delicious....and the chocolate decadence is amazing.

RedBeard 757

Refreshing to go out and get real ice cream! Price was also good too. My only disappointment was I saw a drive thru in the pics but it was turned into outdoor seating. All in all would definitely recommend.

Jenni Salisbury

Another great ice cream location in Virginia Beach! Well worth the drive. Love the vanilla chip. Staff is always prompt and friendly. This location is extremely clean.

Hampered by Homosapiens

Owner is from the same family that started the Gelati Celesti revolution in Richmond, VA. Same quality and standards down here in Virginia Beach. Amazing, friendly staff willing to work with those whom have food allergies. Gelato worth the drive for, and late night hours for those who want it after dinner out. Love the perk of drawing on an old chalkboard.

Brittani S.

I had the 4 scooper. Whoa. I loved every flavor I got. Can't wait to go back to try more flavors! I won't be going to any other ice cream store from this point forward. I'm hooked 🪝

MRB Banks

My favorite gelato place! Soooooo happy it's down here in VB now! Although the nostalgia of driving down Broad St can't be beat up in RVA. The Salted Caramel is THE best! Although I haven't tasted a flavor that I didn't like. I like the design inside too. Everyone was so friendly as well!

Craig Jarvis

Good selections, over priced, small portions. No bang for the buck. Go to the store and buy a gallon of ice cream, and save your money.

Pauline Kaiser

I just tried an ice cream flavor named, "Just ask" ...vanilla base, chunks of Oreo, white chocolate and peanut butter. OMG! Wish I had never found it, LOL 😋 Open Daily 3-9 w a DRIVE THRU service! So YUM 😋 …

Stephen Fadely

I love this place and I love that they have a selection of rotating flavors so it's a fun surprise every time you go.

Darius Pilapil

Clean location, super friendly and helpful staff and simply amazing gelato. We tried a wide variety from fruit-based, to chocolate and caramel, and Mexican street corn! Rich flavors that you have got to try. Highly recommend.

Guillaume Creteau

Fantastic texture and taste. Several chocolate flavors to choose from. Efficient service and the prices are reasonable...a little bit on the pricey side...but way cheaper than the other place around the corner.

Peera Amornkit

Their ice cream is amazing delicious. Staff is friendly. She recommended me Raspberry cheesecake flavor. It is really good. The store decoration is very cute. And it is nice and clean. There are some outdoor seats as well.

Susan

Delicious ice cream!!! Great customer service. We ate there three days in a row while on vacation in VA Beach.

Dave Dillow

Great gelati with even better service. Try samples before you buy and mix flavors in the larger size cups. LOTS of flavors to choose from 👍👍. …

Joan Claire Izzo

I pick up gelato at one of their Richmond locations every single time I visit my family in RVA. So far, the quality and service at the VB location is equally fantastic. I only hesitate to post 5 stars, because I don't want to share!

Joy Presto

Great place. Authentic flavors that are mouthwateringly amazing. And the best part, they keep a list if they did not have the flavor you wanted and call you when they have the flavor again. I love them!

Ali H

Their ice cream is the best I've ever had. The customer service is spectacular. Everyone is nice and helpful. Would 10/10 recommend.

Gelati Celesti was a great stop. The ice cream taste creamy and delicious. I will make it a mission to not stop by here often because if I do, I will start to look like the cow from chik fil a. I hope you enjoy as much as I did.
