Francescos Gelato: Reviews & Ratings
I LOVE ice cream shops in general but THIS one, spectacular. Lovely atmosphere and even better service. Pierson was wonderful and so fun to talk to. SERVICE makes or breaks the experience and mine was made. Also, FREE SPRINKLES. Would come again you should definitely check it out. :)
went there with my girlfriend!! LOVE the free sprinkles and color-changing spoons (and free samples). Good variety of flavors and menu items. Ice cream is always yummy and the waffle cones are sturdy and yummy as well. Staff is always very friendly. Prices are kinda high. also it's weird bc their "Single" is actually two scoops, so make sure to clarify how many scoops you're getting \_(ツ)_/
The ice cream tastes clean, delicious, and smooth—not overly sugary or artificially flavored. The service was great, and the friendly staff offered us plenty of samples to try. The peach flavor was especially unforgettable and had a great taste. The shop is nicely decorated, creating a fun and cozy atmosphere to sit down and enjoy a sweet moment with friends.
I am not easily impressed by ice cream places, I’m pretty particular about texture and flavor. From the first sample bite I was blown away by Sugar J’s. I tried the passion fruit honey flavor first—amazing!! And then the lemon meringue—phenomenal! I love lemon flavored things but almost every ice cream shop I’ve ever been to makes lemon ice cream taste fake and overly sweet with hardly any tartness but not this place! This ice cream tastes like it was made with real lemons while also maintaining a creamy texture and it had the perfect amount of tartness. I was so delighted with the quality and excellent flavor. I got a lemon meringue shake, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I’m only in Corvallis for a week but I hope to squeeze a second visit in before I leave to get some scoops of that amazing passion fruit ice cream.
The ice cream is delicious! They were just making waffle cones when we walked in, so it smelled delightful. I had to order one, and it did not disappoint. The waffle cones are perfectly soft yet crunchy. The person behind the counter was super friendly, really great customer service. Looking forward to coming back!
Great friendly service, lots of choices and the best waffle cone I've ever tasted. We had a waffle cone with a scoop of coffee ice cream and a scoop of cookies and cream ice cream. Both ice creams were delicious. The coolest thing is that they have hyper colored spoons. I'm glad we stopped here and can't wait to try all the different kinds of ice cream. I also like that they have plenty of inside and outside seating.
Wow! Absolutely the best ice cream I've ever had. So smooth, creamy and fresh. I didn't know it was possible, because I've had a lot of different types of ice cream over a long period of time. My love of ice cream started while working at Baskin Robbins in high school in the late 70's. I'll be back!
I love this place! We've been coming weekly for a few months now and have tried a lot of flavors, they're all great and taste homemade. Husband is addicted to the banana bread, I love all the fruit flavors. Nothing ever tastes artificial or overly sweet. Waffle cones are fantastic. The interior is also always very clean and nice to sit inside.
