Gelateria I Caruso In Roma

We stumbled upon it by chance on our first day in Rome. We tried others but came back here because they were truly the best. The pistachio and straciatella are simply delicious.

Great gelato and macaroons, fair prices, kind staff, totally worth a visit.

I've been going here forever. Without a doubt, the best ice cream shop in Rome!

Very big portions like a nonchalant BBC

Hands down the best gelato I’ve ever had! The flavours are incredible – there’s such a wide range to choose from, and every single one tastes fresh, rich, and absolutely delicious. The hospitality was just as impressive; the staff were so welcoming and genuinely passionate about what they do, which made the experience even better. Everything about this place is top-notch – from the quality to the service – truly a 10/10 gelato spot. Highly recommend!

Tantalising gelato I must say, finest gelato in Italy thus it is of most importance for one to try the impeccable variety of gelato on offer.

I had an incredible experience here and it deserves the highest praise possible. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at ease – the owner greeted me with genuine kindness and warmth, making me feel more like a guest in a family home than just another customer. That kind of hospitality is rare and really made a difference. The food itself was absolutely outstanding. The portions were huge, generous, and great value for money. Every single dish tasted fresh, carefully prepared, and full of authentic flavour. You can really tell that the ingredients are chosen with care and that a lot of pride goes into the cooking. It’s not just food – it feels like a true expression of Italian culinary tradition served with heart and passion. One of the highlights was the authenticity. The flavours were rich, balanced, and exactly what you hope to find when coming to Italy. Nothing felt generic or mass-produced; everything tasted homemade, traditional, and deeply satisfying. It was the kind of meal that leaves you both full and genuinely happy. On top of that, the atmosphere was lovely. Relaxed, friendly, and unpretentious – the kind of place where you can sit back, enjoy your meal, and feel at home. The owner’s happiness and friendliness were infectious, making the whole experience even more enjoyable. I’ve eaten at many places while travelling in Italy, but this one truly stood out as something special. It wasn’t just about the food, but the entire experience: the welcome, the service, the flavours, the portions, and the atmosphere. Everything came together perfectly and left a lasting impression. If you’re in the area and looking for somewhere to eat, I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Whether you want a hearty meal, authentic flavours, or just a genuinely kind and welcoming environment, you’ll find it all here. It’s a gem that deserves to be discovered and appreciated. Easily one of the best places I’ve eaten at in Italy. I will absolutely return, and I encourage anyone reading this review to give it a try – you will not be disappointed.

Very lovely gelato, especially the pistachio and hazelnut. Friendly patient service. Took time to help us in English and let us decide. Reasonable prices too, definitely recommend!!

Outside of the touristic area so not crowded, I don’t even like gelato very much and I loved it. The pistachio is the best one!!

The other reviews are completely right. This is some of the best gelato I’ve ever had in my entire life. It’s a local spot that’s been around for 20 years with an owner who is truly passionate about what he does. We got the special pistachio gelato and the flavor was to die for. So so fantastic. Then, he had us try a nutella flavor (incredible) and a blood orange sorbet with a dark chocolate gelato. If you can, make this stop in Rome.
