A summer season staple. A great place to stop for a quick treat or a hang for the whole family. Lovely flavors and awesome location.
What can I say about this place? Wonderful product, great and inventive flavor combinations, and a solid outdoor patio. Its a little more than the typical trip to an ice cream stand, but as a special treat is fully worth the trip.
I love, love love ice cream but Dojo Gelato is even better!! Ive tried the unusual and the traditional flavors and recommend having a scoop of each. Such as Vietnamese Coffee with Shivas Head Band or Vanilla with Chocolate, Cinnamon & Cayenne pepper! Take a walk in Wesleyan Cemetery while your there.
Accidentally drove past the parking lot (across the street next to the convenience store). Great service, fun music, and a good range of flavors. They do catering too. Cart, truck, or a bucket.
I absolutely love Dojo!!! This place has the best gelato in the city. I have never had a bad thing from here. The staff is super friendly and will help you find the flavor of your dreams! I highly recommend checking them out if you havent yet or if youve been thinking about it.
Excellent homemade gelatos some very different textures and flavors that are just amazing Im always excited to go here they do everything on site and house is just amazing truly is
Omg! The best customer service ANNNNNNNDDDDD Ice Cream Ive ever had. I was visiting Cincinnati and this place was recommended. Love. Love . Love!!!!!!!
TASTY TREAT!!!! HOMEMADE WAFFLES.. NICE OUTDOOR SITTING AREA.
Delicious. If youre a coffee fan, highly recommend
Northside is such a cool neighborhood anyway, Dojo Gelato is the cherry on top. Just dont expect a milkshake!!
Great service, friendly helpful in choosing options for my 1st time friends. :)
I really want to like this place but Im always disappointed. Maybe Im ordering the wrong things? Got a $6.75 root beer float last time and it was just okay. Maybe if it werent so expensive. I might go back someday if I just happen to be walking past.
Great Location for us. Delicious and friendly
Best Ice cream in Cincinnati, just sad that they close so early in fall!
I love the different flavors. Such a fun place.
Well distanced & Covid conscious. Great gelato. Cute little corner of the neighborhood. Love it!
Love this place! The sweet tooth gets satisfied hete. Unique and Deelish!!
Delicious gelato and casual outdoor space to enjoy the treats.
I have always loved Dojo, but Northside is my happy place! This location has their social distancing and sanitation down to a science. It has been my sweet escape during the pandemic-summer and I’m so glad they’ll be staying open into the fall. 🍨
Me and my friend went loves it
Love this little local gelato place. I would strongly suggest the tahitian vanilla or the vietnamese coffee flavors. When its there, there is a turmeric ginger flavor that you would think sounds awful, but its heavenly.
Dojo is the best for unique flavors and sundaes. They are consistently putting out new exciting flavors and the quality cannot be beat. I only wish the Northside location stayed open all year.
Delicious gelato. Had the coffee and gooey butter cake flavors. Staff did a great job with pandemic setup and service. Beautiful spot to sit and enjoy a cold treat on a hot day.
Nice outdoor seating area and nice employees that seemed happy to be there. The Dutch chocolate waffle cone is my favorite! I will definitely be going back.
Loved the convenient parking, wide array of flavor choices, and quirky options. I had the apocalypse cow sundae and my boyfriend had a gelatowich--both delicious! We look forward to stopping back the next time we are on town ♥️
Terrible whipped cream and cherry. Want very gelato like in my opinion. Wouldnt hurry back
So good! The price was right and the menu had some great options.
This place is a gem! It was absolutely and truly delicious! So rich and flavorful, and they were fantastic with us when my grandson accidentally spilled his shake today. We will definitely go back and explore the variety! I recommend checking out this local treasure!
First time an we was pleased with both orders the gooey butttercake an the affgato...a nice blend of cake an icecream..didnt like the little spoon lol..would definitely try other flavors
I have food allergies, including dairy. I went here with family and wasnt really expecting to get anything. They had sorbet, though, and washed out the scoops and pulled from a different part of their sorbet container to make sure I could have dessert with my family without any risk of a reaction. The man behind the counter even went back and double-checked the ingredients to make sure there wasnt anything on my list that I couldnt have. He recommended another sorbet when there was an issue with my first choice. (Yes, multiple choices!!) So he saved me from anaphylaxis, which Ill always be grateful for, and then there was the sorbet itself.I got strawberry balsamic. Intense true strawberry flavor (none of this fake syrupy taste) - made with real seedy strawberries. Just enough edge of balsamic to make it complex and interesting without overpowering the strawberry. REALLY good stuff. Cant wait to try their watermelon!
Fantastic ice cream, coffee, aesthetics, and vibes. Definitely check it out
That is on par with Graters, the flavor is amazing. We are lucky in Cincinnati to have two amazing brands.
Best Ice Cream Gelato in town
Very nice staff very nice place to eat love the environment
Nice old-fashioned style ice cream parlor. Great staff and delicious ice cream. Fun spot!
This place has the best frozen dessert around! They keep flavors rotating but always have the classics. I love their vanilla with hot fudge and a cup of espresso!
Delish! Local favorite with unique offerings and friendly service.
Quirky and cute. Ice cream is da best. Pineapple soft serve has a different texture than typical vanilla soft serves (probably vegan?) Nonetheless, its still good.
I enjoyed the pineapple and raspberry vegan soft serve twisted in a cone. Its fantastic! I appreciate that you offer vegan options. Thank you.
This place is a local gem, we are so lucky to have them!
Yumm
Gelato is one of my favorite dessert treats and Dojo does it right! Tucked away in a nook of Northside, there is a lovely outdoor patio for you to sit and enjoy your treat, both during the day and into the night. Theres also a lot dedicated for customers so you dont need to worry about street parking. If you make it in before summer is over, I highly recommend trying their summer vibes sundae - made with olive oil gelato, cherry compote, almonds, whipped cream, and of course a cherry on top. Though, you really cant go wrong here - everything Ive ever gotten here has been good!
Fantastic gelato, excellent service, and homemade hot fudge. Whats not to love? My new favorite ice cream stop in Cincinnati! Worth the price to support fresh ingredients, unique flavors, and local business.
Such a great addition to the neighborhood! Locally owned startup that has grown without forgetting its roots. Quality product! Always something new on the menu. Attentive staff and close to many other great spots. Not to be missed!
The Vietnamese coffee gelato was stunning! It was so soft and flavorful. There were even flecks of real coffee bean! So good!
First time going we went to the farewell to summer event. They had live music and Elis BBQ. The pulled pork sandwich was delicious and the gelato was rich and very tasty. Was a great event with plenty of people in attendance. Awesome way to end the summer. Looking forward to this years.
I love strolling through town in the summer and stopping here. So amazing
This is a great place to hang and enjoy something sweet on a summer night. Great vibe.
Never been there, but have eaten off the truck at events. The place looks fantastic, a great place to chill. Product is very tasty and very pricey!
Very tasty! Worth the stop!
Yay, wipipo eating ice cream! Gentrification at its finest! Loud venue with customers blocking driveways to get a parking spot in a mad rush to slurp down some frozen swill. Complete disrespect and lack of consideration for families that have lived in this community for many years. Trendy food stand, only going to stay around until the next housing bubble, then leave another blighted building in their wake.
Lack of parking gives this pretty awesome spot a 4 star. Gelato is pretty good overall, some could use a bit more pop flavor wise, but still some good flavors here.
This is a real treat. You can taste how the natural the ingredients are. Also staff is very friendly. Will recommend and will be back for more!!
Ive been going here for years. Delicious, interesting flavors, fun atmosphere. Its a great place to get Gelato
5 stars for the Gelato and the variety and the courtesy and professionalism of the one person staffing when we went. 4 stars for no indoor seating in the oppressive heat.
Quaint, pretty and clean. Great cherries! Good coffee, ice cream is good. Priced fairly and Starbucks like prices.
Been visiting Dojo Findlay nearly since open. Love this location, as it gives you a bit of room to sit, relax, and watch the cars go by. Excellent gelato, amazing affogato, and Im always excited to see whats on soft serve. Dont miss out, get you some.
Amazing gelato at such a cute corner spot. Free parking across the street.
I like their flavors a lot! Excited for Gelato weather.
A refreshing break from the bike ride...
There is life pre-DG and post-DG and post-DG is so much better. Im thinking about moving into the broom closet so I can eat this everyday. The staff is hella cool. Go here or die trying.
Love this place, so glad that they are expanding. This is a good spot, nice and chill, looking forward it being a destination for rides.
Great gelato, super shakes, and awesome affogato!
Absolutely delicious with too many to choose from! Great location in Northside.
Amazing vegan flavors!
It is a trendy hip place that sells pricy gelato. I like the unusual flavors, but I really dont like the extreme price for what you get. I got a large soft serve, it was $4 and it was only about 3 above the top of the cone. I would hate to see a small, what is that, even with the cone? PS they were out of waffle cone, but I saw a waffle cone maker, so either they were not making them, or they are out of the mix. Bottom line if you have slick back hair havent shaved or showered in weeks and think a taste of Belgium is a good restaurant, then you will enjoy Dojo Gelato. If you are no to any of the above, then skip
A bit pricey, but high quality delicious!
Family favorite partly because we can walk there but mostly because of the great ice cream!!
Dojo Northside is my very favorite place. I wish I could go every day. The gelato is incredible. They also have vegan gelato and sorbet available. The fresh hand-rolled cones are amazing. Their espresso is perfect. I love the patio,its almost like being in Europe.
It is a good place to get something a little different.a
High quality, artisanal ice cream. My favorite flavor is the butter cake, but bourbon cherry and chocolate are delicious too.
Some of the soft serve
Lovely Northside staple
Great espresso and the Gelato was amazing!
So many choices, and every one is amazing. Highly recommend the Cinnamon Honey Latte, the Dutch Chocolate gelato, and the Sea Salt Caramel gelato.
Superb flavors balanced and wholesome delivered with just enough attitude.
I dont know i migjt have to go back to check out the service again but the ice cream was wonderful and i got my moneys worth i bought a waffle cone of something wonderful i forget theflavor but i rember it was 😋 yummy
The gelato is as good as I can eat in my home town in Italy
After seeing this place on Yelp my husband and I were super eager to try it. The guy working was hesitant to let us sample the gelato which was disappointing. I really wanted to try more than one flavor. I got a large sweet cream soft serve which was pretty good but awfully small. It was only two swirls above the cone. They also didnt have waffle cones which was sad (even though they had the waffle cone maker there). My husband got a swirl cone but when they first tried to put ice cream in it just liquid was coming out. They finally got the gelato to come out but his cone was super soggy. Pretty disappointed in this place. Also thought it was kinda pricy for the small size. Wont be returning here.
The only place I have ever found Nutella gelato in the states!!! So delicious, beautiful outdoor patio!
Tasty Northside go-to for both low and high brow ice cream.
A favorite of mine when my wife and I lived downtown. I was so excited when I saw this location being built on the corner of Colrain and Blue Rock since we were in the process of buying a house in Northside. Not as good a greaters but a great local ice cream place.
I’m super excited to have this place in my neighborhood! I’m glad that awesome businesses are continuing to open and that Northside is really becoming a great place to hang out. This place isn’t on the Main Street of Hamilton so you’ll get to explore a book you might not have gone to before!While I can’t say I was super into any of their scoopable gelato, I really enjoyed their blueberry soft serve! It was uber creamy and not over sweet. They always offer vanilla soft serve, this blueberry was seasonal and might not be available when you visit.I recommend topping whatever you get with some of their house-made hot fudge or caramel. And probably some sprinkles for a crunch of sweetness.
Try the ginger gelato, and honey... So friggin good!
Excellent Gelato glad they opened up a place so close to home
Delicious gelato and fun atmosphere!
This place .... @dojogelato is the REAL DEAL... Ive been to Italy and there is nothing that takes more patience then GELATO. That Soft Serve Gelato Tho.....#Low-fat #Rich #Creamy #BoldFlavor #ItalianGelato #ItsRealInTheStreets#Gelato #Cincinnati#Northside #dojogelato #LuvDlux
Funny place with delicious gelato and amazing and unusual sundaes
Always good. Better in the Sun !
