Gelato Di Riso

Stopped by this shop after the science museum. The gelato was amazing and the neighborhood is great for walking too. We plan to head back next time we are in St. Louis! The iced coffee was also delicious!

Not the friendliest employees, but the gelato more than made up for it. This is our favorite spot now since we first visited in January.

Like ice cream - must visit this Gelato place on the Hill. Plus, beautiful La Fontana Della Famiglia Frisella is next door.

I love this place. The ambiance is different from the rest of the city. I haven't been to Italy yet, but if this is what it's like, I'm afraid I may not leave! They had a wide variety of flavors: I tried the chocolate hazelnut. I walked around back with my gelato to sit around the fountain - it was peaceful.

Delicious Gelato. The employees offered a bag of ice, so I could buy a couple of pints for a dinner in OK. The pumpkin and Hazelnut gelato was delicious. Was hoping for pistachio. Perhaps on my way home next Sunday

Beautiul and spacious outdoor patio in the back. It overlooks the wonderful Piazza Imo park. Awesome gelato. Good variety of flavors, including some fruity ones and some chocolate and other traditional ones. The espresso one and pineapple flavors were excellent. Fast and friendly service. Love this traditional location on the hill.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND... Went there twice the first time They recommended the blood orange and lemon gelato second time with lime because they did not have lemon due to they are constantly changing flavors, and both times it was over the top great combo. I also had a Americano with a shot it was fantastic these guys are very friendly. I hope they remember to try the coffee my friend Glenn recommended to them.

Wonderful place for a cool treat. Nice courtyard in back to enjoy it. Parking can be a bit of a problem, but if one needs to park further away it is the perfect excuse for more gelato as you can walk it off.

This gelato tastes exactly like the gelato we’ve had in Italy. The fruit flavors are our favorite (strawberry, blackberry, cherry, and blueberry were had on our latest visit)! Very clean and staff are friendly. We always go here anytime we are near The Hill. Can’t go wrong!

Awesome little gelato shop! My family and I loved it. We'll definitely stop by again on our next trip to St. Louis.

Never thought Gelato was anything special, let alone comparable to ice cream, but this is better than most ice cream I've had!!!

Staff was also pretty nice. Definitely will visit again.

I LOVE THIS PLACE!! I am lactose intolerant so to find a dessert that is water based is amazing! All of their fruit flavors are delicious. I highly recommend trying them out!

From the time you walk in, you are greeted by friendly staff offering you samples of homemade Gelato. The amazing choices and favor combinations is incredible! I would highly recommend having a small serving so you can go back for more!

Incredible gelato and really good coffee/espresso. Even open late!

At this point I’ve been here 3/4 times and I love the fruity flavors the best. I think raspberry is my favorite. They are so fresh and you can tell they are made with fresh fruit!
The coffee is also delicious, so good and open late which is hard to find local coffee open late!

Cute gelato and coffee spot. I had the strawberry gelato on a waffle cone, it was sweet and flavorful. Gelato Di Riso is an ideal spot to relax on a warm afternoon in St. Louis. I also ordered Biscotti, which was delicious. I highly recommend this place to anyone who appreciates gelato.

How did I not know about this place until today? Great Gelato and its in the middle of "the Hill"! Very appropriate for the neighborhood and this place is living up to expectations. Looking forward to making this a frequent stop for us. In Saint Louis, there aren't many good options for quality ice cream, but Gelato Di Riso, Jenni's, and Clementine's give me hope. Be sure to check out the lovely garden behind this location for a place to eat your Gelato by a fountain surrounded with trees, benches, chairs, and board games.

In the mood for a light tasteful dessert, then the family owned Gelato Di Riso is definitely for you! When you walk inside, you are immediately greeted with a warm atmosphere of the restaurant. The employees are very kind and nice! They inform you on all the flavors and allow you to try them all, until you pick your favorite one! The ingredients are selected from authentic businesses in Italy to ensure authentic flavors, color, and texture in each scoop of their gelato. I tried the lime gelato and found that it had a great kick of flavor and sourness. It tasted like I was actually eating a lime and it was delicious! Another one that we got was blood orange and just like the lime, it has an intense flavor, with a citrus taste. Both of them are very good and light, which doesn't leave a heavy feeling in your stomach. To finish it all up, I tried an Italian cream soda, with vanilla. It was just as great as the gelato. With the carbonation and vanilla together, it makes for an all new experience that is delightful and delicious all together! For anyone who wants a great, light treat, then go to Gelato Di Riso!

My boys were overwhelmed with the choice of flavors so they were kindly offered a taste. One tried the espresso, the other the apple, both liked the flavors so much they decided to get a cone full; and, boy, do they fill those cones up! I ordered a small hazelnut, which they stacked with a very generous portion (hey, I tried to be good! Haha!). Everything we tried here was amazing, the service was spectacular, and my boys have found their new favorite place in Saint Louis. Highly recommend. Also of note, my husband and brother ordered coffee and said it was very good. We will be back next time we're in town. My boys will make sure of that!

I’m not a huge fan of Gelato but this place changes my mind!

The blood orange flavor is bomb and the lemon lime is refreshing. By their powers combined on a hot summer day, it’s a match made in heaven.

My friends also ordered a dark chocolate that was rich and delicious. I’m not huge on dark chocolate but if you’re into it, it’s calling your name.

I’ve been to Italy and this gelato tastes just like how I remember. The ambiance is really nice (indoor and outdoor seating) and they also serve espresso. Perfect place to enjoy coffee in the evening and take a walk around the area.
