Minimalist and affordable ice cream and coffee place. I often come here for the 2.50 CAD espresso. P.S. The gelato is subpar, I have to admit. I would rather them have fewer flavour options, but better quality.

XO Gelato is a gem! The gelato is creamy, rich, and full of flavor—definitely made with care and high-quality ingredients. I tried the blueberry cheesecake and passion fruit, and both were absolutely delicious. The staff was friendly and patient while I sampled a few flavors, and the shop had a cozy, welcoming vibe. Perfect spot for a sweet treat. Can’t wait to go back!

Here's a nice little spot, tucked away in North Toronto ( Mt Pleasant) where you can get some nice tasting gelato. Lots of flavours, that one of them is bound to be a hit. My first taste of gelato was my usual pistachio, but I wasn't too impressed as it was more sweet than pistachios taste. Luckily, I didn't give up and tried another ( salted caramel) and much to my delight, I did happy dance and imaginary back flips. Lesson here: if you don't like the first taste, don't give up, there's countless more to choose from. A double scoop in a cup as all I needed to have guilt free pleasure. Shout out to the gentleman behind the counter for good customer service and patience. I look forward to trying other flavours when I'm in the neighbourhood again
