I love the 80% dark chocolate ice cream, it's my favorite flavor. It's rich and intense. It's the most successful dark chocolate flavor in Brisbane in my opinion, I wish it's slightly creamer and slightly less sugary

A well-lighted store dominated with white and red colour for the decoration. Came here on Sunday afternoon, the place was rather empty, thus the quick service.
The gelato tasted fresh, with wide variety of flavour, combined with the smooth and creamy texture. The size was also decent; the medium sized cup can cater 2 adults perfectly. For the size, the taste, and the texture of the gelato, it is nicely priced and worth it.
Would definitely come back to have more gelato!
Great gelato fresh tasty and varied weekly. A few outlets but Tenerife is quiet and relaxing. Love the cassata.
After our not so great experience with the West End store, it was refreshing to see that visiting the Teneriffe store was a better experience. Gelato consistency was closer to the ones back home and sweetness level just right. The only thing was again staff, service with a smile would have made the visit a 5/5!
I live on the other side of town and no hesitations when it comes to a 40 min drive to my fav gelateria. Was literally mind-blown when I had their hazelnut (can't remember what their italian name for it is..) flavour, was smooth, rich.. creamy... everything you've ever wanted and more !
This is the REAL place for REAL gelato in Brisbane! Knowing that the gelato is freshly made onsite is a plus!
Gelato: texture is super smooth and the tastes are great! You can expect the flavour by the names of the gelato.
Shop: this Teneriffe shop is always my favourite, with indoor seating (great for hot summer) and outdoor seating (great for big bunch of friends/family gathering).
The only point that needs improvement is the scoop-stacking skills of particular staff, but I believe training will solve this (last time I ordered a double scoop cone and the gelato was collapsing half way and I almost made a mess lol) other than that everything is perfect!
Cute place, flavors were good and not too sweet. Had the dark chocolate bar while the boy had a pistachio + hazelnut combo. Chocolate bar was way sweeter than the scooped ice creams so if you’re a fan of sugar and chocolate, that’s the one!
A popular gelato place mear the valley. Came here and tried some of the favourite flavours. All were really good the tiramisu was really good from what I recall.
That was a hot summer in mid 2000’s we were strolling around in Bergamo, 1 hour-drive from Milano. We kept walking enjoying the sunshine and admiring the fashionable locals on the street until we saw a looong line in front of a gelato joint. Without hesitation, we joined the queue. And my... it was obviously definitely the most delicious gelato I have ever tasted in my life. Fast forward 2016 when I was ‘stranded’ in Brisbane, I went to a few gelato joints in town before finding this gem. I have to say that La Macelleria gelato is the closest to the gelato I tasted in Italy. It’s soft and fresh and you can even still enjoy it in a cold winter night. My favourites are: pistacchio, cioccolato, tiramisù, coffee, cassata siciliana, malaga, bacio and caramello salato. And don’t forget to add a gelato filled cannoli to complete your treat!

This is a must visit when you are in this part of town. You will get quite possibly the best and most authentic gelato in Brisbane.
The gelato is super fresh with the most amazing flavours. I felt bad as I was very indecisive as this was my first visit but the attendant was patient and super helpful talking about the different flavours and offered me taste tests. I ended up getting probably two of their staple flavours - Fior Di Latte and Bacio which had whole (not chopped or “flavouring”)hazelnuts in the gelato which was a welcome surprise.
I found the pricing to be very reasonable, especially for the quality. $8.50 for the large cup which you could have up to 3 flavours, and at first you might think that the sizes are on the smaller side, they are deceptively big and the large would be more than enough for even the biggest sweet tooth.
Overall this was a great experience with the quality food and service but also the shop itself is welcoming, and I love that you can see into the kitchen and watch the making process.
One of the best authentic gelato shops I’ve visited in Brisbane!
From first arrival, the one staff that was on was super friendly and didn’t mind our indecisiveness. I was a bit thrown off that all the ice cream is covered, so it’s a bit harder to visually see what you want. For even the smallest size, you can choose 2 flavours- I thought it was great to get to taste more than one.
For what you get, it is a bit more on the pricey side- and the sizes are a bit deceiving (cup is smaller than outside length). However, I can’t complain because the taste and service was too good. I feel a sense of family and teamwork at this shop, and it makes me too feel welcomed! Hope to be back soon!
Great real gelato.
All the flavours are amazing, we tried the vanilla, hazelnut, chocolate and macadamia, all of them perfect.
You can tell it is made with fresh real ingredients.
Prize is good too. If you are looking for a real gelato, only need a little bit to satisfy you.
Absolutely superb gelati. Bellissimo. Great treat after a show at the Powerhouse. Friendly staff who replaced my ice cream free of charge when I dropped it as I walked out having not managed even a bite. Definitely going back. Have recommended to my friends.
Nice selection of Gelato. Friendly helpful staff!
The shop has very efficient service. It also has two options for seating - inside and outside. The gelato is made locally. However there isn't a big variety of flavours. There are also only 3 sorbetti flavours which are vegan. The prices also vary by cup size (small to maxi) rather than by number of scoops.
Pretty good but not the best gelato in Brisbane. Tiramisu flavour was awesome. The rest two things, strawberry&chocolate, were not my cup of tea.
