"11 Best Gelato Shops in Rome: Gelateria La Romana - It’s all about the ingredients at La Romana, a blend of chic farmhouse and Italian patisserie. The standout here is the white chocolate tiramisu atop a milk-chocolate-filled wafer cone. The gelato is whisked up from the downstairs laboratory, freshly churned, and poured into silver tubs before your very eyes."

Cristina Vurchio

"This is a gelateria that pampers me once a week during my lunch break. Creamy gelato, quality ingredients and a good price, I would say that we have everything we need to enjoy gelato with a capital G. I recommend trying the flavour "bacio di dama" or “croccante della nonna” and for a final touch panna allo zabaione."

Billy Couchenour

"Gelateria La Romana had some of the best gelato I have ever had."

Shelley Lee

"The constant and never ending line-ups outside of Gelateria La Romana were surprising, even in a country where ice cream is almost a religion. That is until I had my first taste - a triple scoop of gelato so divine - it could only be called spiritual."

Michaela Tornaritis

"If you're around Rome please give it a visit because the ice cream is incredible and they add a little bit of melted chocolate goodness at the bottom of the cone."

Melissa Rivieccio

"With 3 locations in Rome to serve the public, La Romana is a sheer delight… unbeatable creamy goodness every time. As if La Romana’s awesome gelato wasn’t enough, they’ve got a white and dark chocolate fountain used to fill the tip of your cone with if you’d like and three different kinds of whipped cream to top off your gelato: coffee, zabaione, and cocoa. Yum!"
