    Shameful behavior. After buying ice cream while it was raining, I went to sit at the place’s balcony with my wife and baby boy to eat it. When I entered again to order coffee, I was asked to leave because we didn’t order enough. I even offered to pay, so I don’t have to go out to the rain, and they refused. The place wasn’t full at the time. Even though They weren’t rude, It’s always about people, and in that respect, they failed miserably - at least in my experience.

    Good and fast service. The cakes and spaghetti ice cream were tasty. A bit too much whipped cream on some of the deserts (for my taste at least). Overall, friendly staff and good value for money.

    One of the few places where there was outdoor seating in a beautiful day in March. We just had Tea and some cake, which was quite nice. The apfelstrudel was warm, but unfortunately not crispy (5.20 euro). Prices are moderate for Viennese standards.

    The most disrespectful and horrible experience I ever had in any restaurant. My kids couldn’t wait to order ice cream at the counter while myself and my husband sat down to order more icecream and coffee for the 4 of us, so my kids wanted to order again at the table. The waitress literally kicked us out because my kids sat at the table with take away cups, even when I told her we will order for 4 at the table she continued to remove the menus and rudely kicked us out. Before I leave I tried to give the shop manager a feedback and that what happened isn’t right especially in the service industry, but he was more rude and even pulled my arm, while trying to breach me about respect. I really can’t believe how a shop like that is still open in a city like Vienna where hospitality and good customer service is everything. Really beyond shocked.

    Bumped into this haha. Super fresh flavour. Pistachio and strawberry are always a standard for me to judge on. Highly recommend

  • 5/5 Csilla N. 11 months ago on Google • 136 reviews
    It is a fantastic place. The waitress was very kind, and the other staff too. The only problem was to choose from the menu, there were too many amazing ice-cream creations. The raspberry ice-cream was amazing and the coffe is good too. The service was extremely fast. The terrace is truly moody although can be a little crowded.

    My experience at this gelato shop left much to be desired, as it fell below my expectations in terms of both the quality of the gelato and the level of service provided. What particularly struck me was the owner's disrespectful and unprofessional attitude, which was evident in their responses to customer reviews. It is disheartening to encounter such a lack of care and consideration for customers. When assessing the gelato itself, I found it to be lacking in flavor and overall quality. The taste did not live up to the standards set by other exceptional gelato establishments, such as Gelateria La Romana and Paolo Bortolotti. These renowned gelato shops have consistently impressed me with their wide range of delectable flavors and impeccable texture, making them clear examples of superior gelato craftsmanship. Furthermore, the owner's choice of words and belligerent demeanor served as a direct reflection of the subpar experience at this Eissalon. The use of profanity and rude behavior not only creates a hostile environment but also reveals a fundamental disregard for customers. It is disappointing to witness an individual who does not understand the value of providing excellent service and creating a positive customer experience. In conclusion, I would advise seeking out alternative gelato establishments that prioritize both exceptional flavors and top-notch service. Gelateria La Romana and Paolo Bortolotti are just two examples of establishments that consistently deliver on both fronts. It is unfortunate that this gelato shop fails to meet the standards set by its competitors, with its underwhelming gelato flavors and poor customer service. RESPONDING TO THE OWNER: Veramente deludente da parte tua, piccola bambini. Rispondi in modo scorretto a tutte le recensioni e sembri incapace di accettare feedback negativi. Piuttosto che sprecare tempo ad insultare chi critica, sarebbe meglio che cercassi un corso su come gestire le recensioni. Ce ne sono molti disponibili. Spero che tu possa migliorare il tuo approccio commerciale. Resto in attesa di vedere eventuali progressi. Mi siederò presto ai vostri tavoli e vedrò se quella regola è ancora in vigore.

    Very good gelato, not really on par with the hand-made ice cream you can get in Italy, but still one of the best in Vienna. What we particularly liked about this place was the fact that the owners allow you to sit down at a table even if you ordered an 'on the go' cup, provided there's still place and it's not a crowded day. They let you feel welcome and don't push you out. You should also definitely sit down at a table and grab a bite or try one of their ice cream specialties and a perfect espresso, as it's located on a rather quiet street, a couple of minutes from the Stadtpark. It quickly became one of our favorite places to go in Vienna.

    Our place of choice for wonderful drinks, ice creams and cakes. Sisi and Luca have a little gem of a place here and are perfect hosts. Can't wait for our next trip!

    We saw some nice ice from a distance. The seats were good though. We left before he could tell us to leave, we almost had a chance to order something. It tells me a lot if a restaurant cares more about scaring other customers away over serving their current customers.

    Felt unwelcome and staff was rude. I am wondering why the place choose to sell ice cream when their "professionals" are incapable to handle customers with children. You can not pay with card here. At least the ice cream was good.

  • 1/5 Robin B. 9 months ago on Google
    There were 3 of us who ordered large ice-creams. Service was extremely poor and impolite as we were attended by a man whose face-expressions made clear he did not want to be there. After we payed we went to take a seat in one of the 6 or 8 tables they had in the terrace (only 2 were being used - other tables were empty). Few seconds after we took a seat with our ice-creams one the waitress came to tell us that we could not sit down as the terrace was just for sit-in orders (we were not informed about this policy while ordering). Therefore we had to stand up and leave and eat of ice-creams on the go. Very disappointed.

    I recently tried the pistachio ice cream at Ice Cream Shop, and I was absolutely in love. The ice cream was creamy and smooth, with a rich, nutty flavor that was perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the cream. I would definitely order again.

  • 5/5 Ia T. 1 year ago on Google
    The best gelato I have had in several years! Pure and strong flavours and smooth texture ❤️I tried the Coco with lovely chunky bits and the passion fruit with it's freshness, and had a taste of the classic stracciatella with smooth milk and krispy dark chocolate. Yum! Classic is amazing when it's done right!

    Everything was wonderful! The staff was kind and welcoming. Pizzas are perfect for when you’re not too hungry but still want something savoury. Gelato was incredible especially the pistachio which is my favourite. 5/5 Highly recommend!
