Icy, lack of genuine flavor and overly sweet. Just an awful experience, sometimes I wonder if most trip advisor contributors are wowed by the city rather than the food because this place sucked! The service was polite.

I was sampling dairy-free (and gluten-free) options: amazing soy vanilla they had! They were especially helpful with making sure I didn't get gluten-contamination from cones in my ice cream.

We visited 6 different ice cream shops in Rome, most recommended by other Trip Advisor users. This was the only one that was not up to our expectations. Most flavors were not so tasty and Nutella ice cream was definitely not Nutella and had even some ice crystals inside... not bad, but nor worthy of going either.

The lady serving us was very nice we tasted and could not choose everything was perfect, the chocolate and pistachio are so nice they must be sinful

We are gelato addicts and we have tried a lot of gelato (including san crispino). This is hands down the best we had in rome - florence and venice! Incomparable! The beautiful server makes excellent suggestions and we tried the one called "purgatorio". She mentioned a lot of ingredients that went in that gelato mix and in the end it... More

We had a gelato in here after eating locally. The prices were very reasonable, compared to the main gelato shops in the main tourist areas. Choice was limited but the quality of the ice cream was amazing, very tasty and melts in the mouth. Would recommend.

I walked into this place after being disappointed by Frigidarium and San Crispino not living up to all the hype, and it was just perfect. Authentic gelato, great service.

I visited Gelato per Passion by chance back in 2009 right after it opened and immediately became my favorite ice cream shop in Rome and in the world. Since then I've been there several times (I live in the States but visit Rome often as I grew up in Italy) and sent tons of friends there. Everybody agrees that the... More
