Caffe Gelato offers a mixed experience, with some customers enjoying the food, decor, and friendly service, while others find the service lacking and the food not meeting their expectations. The atmosphere is generally pleasant, with beautiful decor and private dining areas available. The menu offers a variety of dishes, including pasta bowls and delicious tortellini. The extensive wine list and special bourbon dinner events receive positive feedback. Overall, customers are divided on their experiences, with some recommending the restaurant for its good food and attentive service, while others felt let down by slow service and issues with food timing.
