Canarino's
Description
Nestled in Edmonds, this gelato café draws crowds with intensely flavored sorbets and gelatos — from silky vanilla and tangy mango to intriguing ruby chocolate and dense, smoky dark chocolate. Friendly, fast staff keep lines moving; the interior is spotless and a small courtyard with ample seating makes it family- and night-owl–friendly. Good prices and mixable flavors keep customers coming back, though the shop enforces a strict 10 o’clock closing time.

As a night owl, I'm always on the lookout for a cozy spot to settle in, whether it's to chat, write, or simply enjoy a treat. This place is ideal! The staff is exceptionally friendly, the interior is spotless, and there's a fantastic selection of tasty options. It's also family-friendly, with plenty of seating available, and they stay open until 10 AM!
However, the real highlight was the incredible sorbet and gelato! Each flavor was bold and delightful. I had the opportunity to try the vanilla, mango, ruby chocolate, and a dark chocolate (the exact name escapes me). The vanilla was incredibly creamy—probably the softest and richest of all the flavors I tasted. It had a buttery texture and flavor that was truly fascinating. The mango was refreshingly tart and tasted just like biting into a ripe mango, which I loved. The ruby chocolate was intriguing; I couldn't quite figure out what it reminded me of. I found myself eating more just to discover its flavor. It was reminiscent of milk chocolate but had a hint of fondant to it. Finally, the dark chocolate, which may have been my favorite of the night alongside the ruby chocolate, was rich and slightly smoky. It was undoubtedly the thickest and densest, evoking the texture of a brownie. Overall, I was thoroughly impressed—everything I tried was luscious and delicious! I will definitely return and can't wait to sample some of their new flavors!
The gelato here is fantastic, and the service is excellent! Just a heads-up about the closing hours, though—when they say they close at 10, they really mean it. Even if you're waiting for a while, they won't let you in after that time. Last night, there were about 15 people ahead of me in line, and when it hit 10:00, they politely informed us that they were closing.
Great place for Gelato on a hot day. Family friendly. Sugar cones with a single bowl is not quite $5. Friendly staff. Beautiful small courtyard for outdoor seats. Some interior seats too.
4.4?! Heck no. Their gelato is right up there with the real deal. The sorbet was so delightful and so creamy?? It’s obvious why there’s always long lines. The young ones working the counter rock. Edmonds keeps surprising me.
