Don't let the name fool you, you can get delicious Gelato and lunch food (burgers; fries and chicken bowl) for your preferred flavour profile. They have hot honey chicken and Nashville chicken. Additionally, they serve some Afghani dishes. The place is a good size to host 30+ people. The ambiance is nice. The staff is great. With fast food prices hiking up and portion sizes decreasing (McDonalds; Wendy's etc), I recommend trying this spot.

Food was okay, Just felt like it was way too saucy. The decor is really nice and the place is clean which is something I appreciate. The service was also not bad. However the food tasted very weird. They put way too much sauce in the burger so much so that it was dripping on the tray. Overall food was okay and the Gelato is also mediocre

The waffles were really good. Highly recommend going and trying worth the money for sure. Sneh was the lady who served me and she was very helpful and nice. The waffle was big and every bite was amazing.

September 2025 Gelato Shack has been a long-standing establishment, recently rebranded as Royal Gelato Cafe. This halal outlet is located at 1725 Kingston Rd, Pickering, ON L1V 4L9. It retains the same ownership and staff. As one of our top recommendations and a personal favorite, this outstanding spot is frequently visited for its irresistible wraps, sandwiches, savory snacks, steaming tea, and a wide variety of ice creams. We highly recommend stopping by to indulge in its culinary delights. Please note, however, that patience is required when ordering, as this restaurant focuses on providing high-quality food, unlike fast-food establishments that prioritize speed.
