I cannot comment on the ice cream. My parents and I stopped in for a sandwich and some drinks. The bread was soooo dry and there was so little dressing on the sandwich that the ...

Authentic! 7/1/2006

I love the Gelato Cafe. You are able to sample a variety of gelato flavors before you decide, and they are able to fit at least a couple flavors into the smallest cup :) I had never had anything comparable in America before moving to Raleigh and eating here....just like the gelato in Italy! Pros: Great variety, open LATE! Cons: Parking is difficult, a little pricey for the amount you get. more

A Real Treat 3/29/2006

We're lucky here in Raleigh to have a place like this. Tasty, authenic Italian gelato in a good variety of flavors. The owner personally makes sure all the gelato is of the highest quality and she makes sure you get the best. Usually, when I go out to eat, I skip dessert, then head over here for Gelato instead! Pros: Tasty, Decently priced, Authenic more

A refreshing taste of Italy in Raleigh 7/12/2005

How flavorful! The gelato here is more taste, less guilt. Everything is good, I haven't tried the food since I have gone here only for a snack or dessert, never a meal. Though parking is less than ideal, this treat is well worth it! If you haven't come by you are really missing somrthing. Pros: flavorful gelato, friendly service, attractive store Cons: parking-not that bad more

Great Food 2/8/2005

Great sandwiches, at least the toscano. Real authentic Italian gelato, try the stracciatella or the tiramisu. Great service, everyone was nice and let me try as many samples as I wanted. Parking stinks, but it's well worth the walk. Pros: inexpensive, great service, great gelato Cons: seating, parking more

Awful food 11/3/2004

I cannot comment on the ice cream. My parents and I stopped in for a sandwich and some drinks. The bread was soooo dry and there was so little dressing on the sandwich that the watered down drinks were required just to swallow. I did notice that no one else got food- just ice cream, so that was probably my mistake. Don't plan on hanging out there, either- 3 teeny tables cramped in a corner inside and noisy traffic with exhaust fumes are outsdie. Pros: Ice Cream Cons: , ambience, flavor more

The treat this side of Italy 9/2/2004

Silvia's Gelato is unsurpassed in this area. I have yet to experience anything quite like her mango, watermelon, or melon gelato. This is an experience for the taste buds. I highly recommend this place and it's open late for a before bed treat. more

8.5- Ridiculously Low Score 6/8/2004

Best Ice Cream in Raleigh, w/o a doubt. Silvia's offerings are always flavorful and fresh. I've been to Italy a number of times and Silvia's gelato and sorbetto are the best I've had in the USA. If you prefer preservative-rich frozen lard, buy Food Lion brand. Pros: Quality, Location, Free samples more
