Velebit is an unassuming gelateria in Hell’s Kitchen that opened 4 months prior to the NYC trip. The selections had classic and interesting options. I chose a small 2 scoop of Stracciatella and Pistachio. The Stracciatella was silky and delicious—exactly what I expected from a quality gelateria. The Pistachio was a surprise. The color was tannish, so no food coloring. The flavor was rich and complex, closer to cookie dough with hints of pistachio. I’m glad I ate my gelato while walking away because I might have ordered seconds or maybe fourths.
Believe the hype! Very high quality treat!Brownie cheesecake is heavenly! The lemon basil is unexpected delight!Shop owners were super friendly and helpful!
Great quality, super fresh ingredients and really intense flavors. Everything you need from a great gelato place. And the staff is super friendly too! Lemon basil is a must.
One of the best gelatos Ive ever had!!! They are made with the highest quality ingredients, the flavors are varied and very Italian. Glad to have this GEM in hells kitchen. The owner is super friendly and attentive.
The place was terrific. Its a very clean and well decorated environment, the owner was very personable and great to talk to, and the gelato flavors were very unique and delicious.
One of the best gelatos Ive ever had. Many flavors and many vegan options available. I had the ferrero, double chocolate, and peanut butter. All were amazing, flavorful, and refreshing. Customer service was superb. The owners were very nice and helpful.
BEST GELATO and COFFEE in the Western hemisphere!!What a wonderful establishment! Kind, courteous, and really knowledgeable staff. The establishment is clean and delightful. I really enjoyed the accent of the man behind the counter!
Got the dark chocolate and lemon basil. Surprisingly good on the same cone! Really nice place.
First rate gelato, with a tasteful array of baked goods (baked on premises). The owners and wait staff take pride in their work and it shows. Try a taste of simply pure and ingenious combinations of the freshest flavors yourself.
Great gelato-vegan options were amazing! Had the coconut vanilla and strawberry.
Velebit has an average 5 stars on Google for a reason. My partner has recently gone vegan and I am vegan curious. I was skeptical that vegan gelato could be done right. Nevertheless, I was extremely, pleasantly surprised when I got a cheap quart of dark chocolate, water-based gelato. Finished it in two days. Unbelievably delicious. And the owner is so kind! Will make this a regular stop in the neighb!
Best gelato I have ever tried ! The quality is top and the stuff is super friendly ! Thank you ! Will be back for sure !
The owners are super nice. Great place to relax with family and friends or to just chill on your own.
Best customer service Ive had In a long time, the owners are lovely people. Great gelato too!
Delicious icecream and awesome coffee! And the owner is friendly! A must when you stay in New York! ❤
Great coffee, friendly service. Try the Açai with peanut toping! Best Gelato in town!
Tried a croissant and it was one of the best I have had, anywhere; and Ive been looking for a good spot that could match what Ive tasted in Europe! Also agree with the other reviews: the service is friendly.
Their gelato is to die for! Beautiful, albeit small, artisan gelato shop with really nice gift items. We tried most of the amazing flavors before deciding. I went with lemon basil (YUM). My 11 yr old daughter got lemon basil & brownie cheesecake, and my 14 yr old son got pb and brownie cheesecake. Both of the last two flavors were extremely rich and decadent, and sooo good. The cheesecake has actual mascarpone in it, amazing! Good to note that they have non-dairy options, including a couple of seemingly dairy-free flavors that are actually coconut milk-based. They also have gorgeous macarons, and sell some other food and drink items, too. Do be aware theres no seating, so its grab and go. We will absolutely be back! If youve ever been to the gelato place in Chelsea Market, thats one of the places they source from. Best gelato in town...run, dont walk!
YUMMY!!! Great quality gelato. Owners are lovely as well.
