It's good, but for Italian ice cream, it's not up to scratch.
The straciatella is bland. The peanut-banana ice cream has a lackluster texture, and it's not just the peanut powder in it; the problem is the ice crystals, as if the freezing wasn't even, as if the gelato hadn't been stirred well during freezing. (I should add: regardless of the method that led to this result, the texture is unpleasant, and you can't really taste the flavor. It's not up to par with other Italian gelato shops.)
The pistachio ice cream is good, but it's made with pistachio cream, so it's a bit too sweet. It's creamy, not bad, but not 100%.

Just walked by and noticed it was busy, so we decided to give it a try. The gelato was good — creamy and not too sweet. Not my favorite, but I’d be happy to come back and try other flavors if I get the chance.

This gelateria was recommended to us by expert guide Elizabeth Jones. Just as she told us, the gelato is superb. The Paganelli family has been making gelato for just about 100 years. Francesco is the third generation. As Elizabeth told us, if a gelateria makes fresh gelatos from local fruits in season, that is a tell. Over two visits, we sampled hazelnut, fig, Sicilian orange, American grape and melon with szechuan pepper. All outstanding. Highly recommended. The Paganellis are as nice as their gelato is delicious.

Amazing gelato with several unusual flavors, yet refined and never banal. You can immediately taste the passion and expertise behind this gelato, spanning generations. Highly recommended. Prices in line with the quality and... Milan.

This is a tiny ice cream shop, but I recommend everyone to visit it because it's truly special! You can taste the quality of the ingredients, and always remember to ask for their cream, which is truly amazing!

The flavors are always new and change frequently, and they're definitely very original and innovative. Prices are a bit high, but they're in line with Milan these days.
