The
decor
is
five
stars
but
I
cant
say
the
same
for
the
desserts.
I
ordered
a
pistachio
and
cappuccino
gelato.
When
I
saw
the
colors
of
the
gelato,
I
was
already
concerned
because
the
pistachio
is
very
bright
green
which
is
not
traditional,
but
I
went
ahead
and
ordered
it
anyway
because
I
wanted
to
see
what
it
tasted
like.
Having
been
to
Italy
numerous
times
and
after
spending
three
months
in
Europe
last
year
I
have
eaten
a
lot
of
gelato.
One
of
my
favorite
companies
in
Europe
that
makes
the
most
amazing
gelato
is
Amorino,
but
I
have
also
had
gelato
from
many
different
companies.
In
California,
Gelato
Paradiso
in
Laguna
and
Newport
is
fantastic.
At
Stam,
I
tasted
the
pistachio
first,
and
it
tasted
absolutely
nothing
like
pistachio.
I
don't
know
what
flavor
it
was,
but
it
definitely
had
no
pistachio
taste
at
all.
Then
I
tasted
the
cappuccino
which
did
have
a
distinct
coffee
taste,
but
there
was
also
an
after
taste,
and
it
did
not
taste
fresh.
I
literally
dumped
most
of
the
gelato
out
into
the
trash.
I
tried
to
get
rid
of
most
of
the
pistachio
and
just
eat
the
cappuccino
but
then
I
gave
up
after
a
few
more
bites
of
the
cappuccino
and
I
realized
the
taste
didn't
merit
the
calories.
I
then
tasted
three
different
types
of
chocolate,
which
were
not
bad
but
not
great.
I
wound
up
going
back
in
the
store
because
the
gelato
was
literally
the
worst
gelato
I
have
ever
tasted
and
I
hate
saying
that
because
it's
a
cute
little
shop
but
I
feel
like
if
you're
going
to
charge
that
much
for
gelato,
it
should
be
authentic
and
it
should
taste
good
and
it's
really
very
unfair
to
the
customer.
So
I
talked
to
the
owner
about
it
and
she
offered
to
give
me
a
refund
which
was
nice,
but
I
told
her
no
it
wasnt
necessary.
Unfortunately
I
can't
return
as
a
customer.
I
hope
this
company
changes
the
recipe
and
starts
putting
out
authentic
gelato
because
there
is
definitely
a
need
for
it
in
the
area.
