“ There are many culinary musts when in Italy like getting amazing pizza and pasta, but not many are absolute needs like gelato. On a hot day in Venice, there are few better ways to cool off than by stopping by Suso for some of the best gelato you can possibly find. The line was long in the busy little alley in front but went by fast as the service was quick to match. I got a marostica cone which is pistachio gelato with almonds and Amarena cherries. It was rich, creamy, and made absolutely fresh. An absolute highlight of visiting Venice and a must stop on a sunny or cloudy day alike. ”

“ Seeing this all over socials I thought it was going to be all hype. Its not. They have a great variety of flavors with a good mixture being traditional and more artisanal. I'm more traditional with my choices with my favorites being pistachio and lemon. But on one trip (yes there were many trips here) I notices one called sepa. It's a lemon/chocolate mixture of some sort. OMFG I've dreamed about it everyday since I've been back in the states. I wish Suso would open here. ”

“ Suso is probably the most instagram famous gelato spot in Venice so expect a line, but they do move quickly and the unique flavors are quite worth it. You can look up the flavors on their website (qr code posted right outside the shop) before you get to the front of the line to help keep it moving. I chose maybe an incompatible flavor combo- one scoop Suso (toffee/caramel) and one scoop cheescake without really thinking that they would eventually blend together, so if I ever go back I would try to choose flavors that work better together. That being said- the actual gelato was great, very creamy and delicious. There is not really anywhere nearby to sit and enjoy it though, you have to get it to go and eat while walking. ”

“ The gelato was very creamy and flavorful. It was not too sweet! There was a semi-long line when I arrived, but it moved fairly fast. Due to the hurried nature of getting through the line, it felt rushed once you got up front, so I'd recommend looking up the flavors beforehand. ”

“ Unbelievable fig gelato! Very hard to find fig gelato and they had it. We also tried the chocolate and cheesecake. The cheesecake was very good too! All servings are served in a cone or cup made out of a cone. There isn't any seating inside, enjoy your gelato outside or on your walk. ”

“ Incredible gelato, came here twice on our trip. Loved the opera and the pistachio-hazelnut flavor most. Would eat this for breakfast. ”

“ There are long lines for this place all day, but around 9pm, it was much less crowded. We got the classic pistachio and also a dark chocolate. We were told the true test of a gelato place is the pistachio, but the dark chocolate was the highlight - intense and rich but not overly sweet. The texture was great. The cup it comes in is actually a sugar cone, but you can upgrade to a nicer cone, as well. In the case, you can also get wine by the bottle if you need a beverage! They also had some packaged biscuits and jarred sauces that you could get as gifts. Multiple locations are in the city. Cards accepted. ”

“ **Review for Gelatoteca Suso** Rating: While vacationing in Venice during the hottest time of the year, I desperately needed something to cool me off. I stumbled upon Gelatoteca Suso and decided to treat myself to some creamy gelato. I went with the Opera gelato on a recommendation and it did not disappoint. The flavor was reminiscent of a Ferrero Rocher--rich, nutty, and utterly delicious. Did it actually cool me off in this sweltering heat? Not really, but it was tasty :) I'll definitely be stopping by again before I head to my next destination in Europe. If you're in Venice, Gelatoteca Suso is a must-try for any gelato lover! Welp...onto the next! ”

“ I stopped in with a few friends because it was highly recommended. Oh my goodness. What a great decision. There was a line out the door but it moved quickly. The employees were friendly and super helpful. The place was clean and brightly lit. And then the gelato. Oh my goodness. So so good. I had two scoops. One tiramisu and one coffee flavored. I look forward to coming back really soon. I highly recommend it. ”
