"Gelateria sulla via Emilia, ma con un bel spazio interno. Gelati e torte gelato, anche su ordinazione. Il gelato è buono, gusti decisi e ricercati. Poco cremosi secondo il mio gusto."

"Gelato molto buono, personale molto cortese. Onestamente non capisco le recensioni basse per ‘buono ma costoso’: i prezzi sono indicati, quindi si sceglie consapevolmente. E per qualità e quantità, per me il prezzo ci sta tutto."

"Sono spesso di passaggio da Bologna e un'amica mi ha consigliato questa gelateria in quanto amo la granita siciliana che di solito prendo solo a Reggio Emilia da una sola gelateria per di più. Secondo me, in questo caso, la qualità della granita parla da sola, basta vedere la consistenza che ha. Dove le granite tradizionali si sciolgono nel giro di 5 minuti, questa è finita ancora prima che si sciogliesse e ci ho messo all'incirca una mezz'oretta se non di più. In bocca è un'esplosione di sapore, veramente buono. Se sanno fare le granite così bene, sono sicuro che anche il gelato non sia di meno. Inoltre, personale gentile è un plus oltre che alla chiara pulizia del locale. Super consigliato, una fermata d'obbligo soprattutto se amate la granita siciliana come me."

"Ci siamo stati varie volte e ormai abbiamo provato tutto. Dal gelato alla focaccia, dal frappè alle "granite siciliane" quelle vere con la frutta e non con lo sciroppo della Fabbri come fanno la maggioranza delle gelaterie e baracchine di Bologna e dintorni. Il tutto è artigianale e con una particolare attenzione alla qualità. Nota di merito anche per le dimensioni del gelato che sono come Dio comanda.. sembra di essere in Riviera! ..e su quest'aspetto senz'altro si distinguono dalla massa. Il locale è sulla via Emilia vicino al centro di San Lazzaro e si può trovare parcheggio 50 metri prima oppure poco più avanti dove c'è il Conad e poi si torna indietro a piedi un paio di minuti. Se si vuole rimanere dentro non c'è molto spazio, ma davanti (meteo permettendo) ci sono delle panchine, mentre in estate nella piazzetta di fianco hanno vari tavolini. Nota di merito alla cortesia delle ragazze :)"
