    Nani's has the best pistachio gelato I've ever had, not at all artificial tasting unlike most pistchio flavoured foods. Would recommend the tiramisu and biscoff gelatos as well as the lemon sorbet. There's no seating and the store is very small so I'd try another location if you're looking to dine in.

    Tried them on my last visit to Toronto. They let you try samples of up to 2 flavors, so choose carefully! The cone comes with two scoops, and you can mix and match flavors, so I went with the Ontario Blue, which is Plum, and another which I forgot the name but had Cardamom in it. The ice cream was tasty, with lots of flavor. I preferred the plumbing since it tasted really natural, like eating plum. I wish it were a tad sweeter because the tartness didn't work well in contrast to the other flavor, but overall, it was a great place to stop for a quick treat! Parking was tough to find other than a paid lot adjacent to them and no seating as far as I could tell, so it's an eat out on the block type.

    This place is a gem. The gelato is incredibly smooth, rich in flavor, and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. Every scoop feels like a little luxury — from classic flavors like pistachio and chocolate to more unique ones that change seasonally. The staff is super friendly and happy to offer samples if you're having trouble deciding (which you probably will — everything looks amazing!). The shop itself is clean, cozy, and has a great vibe. Highly recommend if you’re a gelato lover or just want to treat yourself to something special.

    This is the first time to try their gelato as there is always a long line. I ordered roasted coconut and salty pistachios, pistachios is the winner, I can taste the chunky nut very fresh and yummy. Love to go back again just for the pistachios. It seems they rotate the flavors by-weekly. They have instagram account we can check before going. I have included their instagram code here for easy checking.

    I love Nani’s Gelato, I wish I was Nani’s gelato. They also have such an amazing g rotation of flavours AND you’re allowed to mix two flavours in one scoop so lovely. Do note you cannot sit inside this location , it’s more of a grab and go place
