I've searched far and wide to find pistachio gelato with the same full flavor as the ones I've tried in Italy. Well, I've found it here. Don't be put off by the bright green color (normally a marker of sub-par pistachio gelato - in Italy it's white), this is the real deal. I was speaking with the staff and they import the pistachios from Turkey (which, according to my wife's research, produce the most flavorful nuts, along with Iran and Sicily) and make the gelato on the premises. My teen and tween both had some type of double chocolate gelato and said it was very good. The waffle cone was nice and crisp.
Nice gelato place on queens quay. Great variety. We tried the peanut butter and jam and the taste was spot on. Just what you would expect. There is a tiny park with benches nearby as well.
Good flavors! Pistachios was amazing! Smooth, creamy and the nuts just give the gelato texture. The biscotti was a little confusing flavor. But the rest taste great!
They offer a variety of mouth watering flavours. I tried vanilla, banana, mango cheesecake, peanut butter and jam, roasted marshmallow and chocolate until now. Will try the remaining in my upcoming visits. The rates are so reasonable approx $7. Yummy!!!
The my main comment is that they don’t have much options displayed.
Or even if there was! There was four us and It was not clear to non of us that there was more options, we had no idea!!
No one even bothered from the workers to mention that you have more flavours.
“Also don’t get Oreo it’s not good in my opinion.”
When I say my opinion about a flavour that is just my opinion, and I have the right to say however I feel about a flavour! I don’t care if it took 100 hours to make, or whatever ingredients it has, I simply didn’t like it, and I gave my opinion.
I give reviews to summaries my experience at the store. I’m not obligated to do a research!
I don’t think the reply to the review was appropriate.
That’s called poor customer service
I don’t think I’ll go back!
However,
The location is nice
The decoration from the inside is very nice, they only have take out
Prices are in the picture included
Parking is hard
Washrooms available

Great place and great customer service.
Note that this is a Gelato shop and the flavours are a bit different but delicious.
The chocolate hazelnut tastes exactly like Nutella .
And the lavender honey is a better version that the one we get at Lavender farms ..
You have the option to taste the flavours before you buy so try it out before buying since every taste bud is different!
On Weekends they are open till midnight which is a great option considering it’s pretty close to the lake ..
When they say a scoop it’s more like 2 scoops ..
for $5 it’s really good ..
Highly recommend ✌🏻

I really liked Lick It Gelato!!!
I don't know what it is but, even though it is chilly outside, I still crave eating some ice cream, especially gelato.
The location is great, really close to the lake and the harbor and marinas in Toronto.
The locale itself is small, but they did the best with the space they have and make it tool very welcoming on the outside and cozy on the inside.
As you approach the place, there is a chalkboard with the days' special or a nice message. Once inside, the same chalk is used on the walls. To the end there is a set of couch love seats waiting for you to enjoy the frozen treat.
Some flavors are very original, or at least not found everywhere, such as Mascarpone and Black Grey English tea, which by the way, it really tastes like it.
I gave it a 4 star because, being as cold as it is in Canada, even if we're in spring, if you have a machine to make specialty coffees, then you ought to have some tea to sell, which was what my wife needed instead, as we were about to go back to the hotel to call it a night. But hey, just something to think about.
But your staff is friendly and helped us by offering tastings until I reached the combination of flavors my mouth was looking for, which was strawberry (sorbet) with mascarpone.
Keep it up!

Lemongrass sorbet and lemon ginger sorbet are of the hook! Yeah, not cheap but consider the location and c'mon, after you tasted that lemongrass sorbet on a hot summer day, you will go back and would pay twice as much to get it again.
