Gelateria Maximo: Reviews & Ratings
It was so good I visited 3 times in 3 days. One of the best gelatos I had in rome during a recent visit and reasonably priced. I tried the vanilla, pistachio, coffee, and lemon flavours, and they were all good, but the vanilla and pistachio were on another level. Would 100% recommend if you are in the area.
Great flavors. 3.50€ for 3 flavors 4.50 for 4: we loved the salted caramel, dark chocolate full of bits of chocolate, the berries-vegan and the pistachio almond and orange almond. Come and enjoy after visiting the colosseum and forum. No tourists cited here
Went to rome last week and ordered some gelato with my friend because it's too hot. There's a sweet guy who treats us very well and gave us a lot of recommendation, he's very kind!! The gelato was delicious and refreshing, also light and i like it very much, does not have any artificial taste. Thought it was one of many gelato store that we accidentaly found but turns out i never found the same delicious gelato around italy and i kept dreaming to coming back
It was super hot in Rome yesterday, so we stopped by for some gelato since this place was nearby. The ice cream was delicious and totally hit the spot!
A great gelato at a good price! We really enjoyed being able to get two flavors on the small size.
Excellent taste with high quality service! It’s one of the best in Rome! Highly recommend
Absolutely amazing gelato! The peanut one is great and they have vegan options as well -Pistachio and dark chocolate are highly recommend too.
