50 Great Ice Cream Shops and Fro-yo places nearby
"This legit gelato shop is run by an authentic Italian “gelatiere” (gelato-maker) from the old country. Carlo Gattini uses only raw, natural ingredients in his concoctions, so they’re free from artificial dyes and preservatives. Snag flavors like berries & lavender, mint stracciatella, mascarpone & figs, and melon sorbetto, among many others."
"Perhaps the best-kept secret in Dallas is located on Lower Greenville and features gelato that is legit as good as the real deal in Florence or Rome. That’s because the owner, Carlo “Botolo” Gattini, was trained by his grandmother, who owned her own shop in Italy and taught him everything. The overwhelming favorite?"
"When I stepped inside Botolino, I felt like I was in Italy all over again. The authenticity begins with the owner Carlo “Botolo” Gattini. His family moved from Tuscany to Dallas 30 years ago when he was fifteen."
"Get the ice cream equivalent of a Sloppy Joe at this Lowest Greenville joint, where the shop offers up sweet buns stuffed with the cold creamy stuff.

"The Northeast Dallas restaurant is offering its vast menu, including family-sized platters and bento boxes. But our hearts flutter for the innovative “mosaic” sushi: a checkboard of pressed sushi squares with various toppings that might include lacquer-brushed unagi, tamago omelet, or delicate salmon embellished with microgreens, edible flowers, or jewels of roe. It’s almost too pretty to eat."
