This is my new favorite place of all time with all of my favorite culinary delights. The gelato is so good no matter the flavor. I also tried the chicken empanada and it was perfect. My hubby tried the ice caramel latte, it was so authentic. Everything was fresh and the prices are great especially since it is all made from scratch. The service was amazing and it’s such a friendly and cozy atmosphere. I wanted to stay there forever!

Definitely felt like a small business, familial vibe and was happy to patronage this gelato shop. Everything was very attentive and I had that “genuine “come back again” feeling that keeps business coming back. The kids definitely enjoyed it and everything was homemade. Definitely take your time to visit if you’re apart of the community or visiting.

Homemade gelato was delicious. Too many good flavors to choose from. Owner let us try a few and told us all about the ingredients. Lots of dairy free options, too. We will be back.

There are so many wonderful things I can say about Bambino Scoops! First and foremost, everything is homemade and super delicious! Seriously! THEN! Manny and George are what the American dream really is. They came from Venezuela and opened this shop. They work and appreciate what America really is about 🇺🇸!So, on to the homemade peanut butter, Venezuelan Dark Chocolate, Mermaid, Lucky Charm, Coffee Choco Chip gelato ( psst, theres white wine in this one) and then Guava Fruit, Flash, Berries Citrus Tutti Fruiti and Summer Lemonade sorbet! Beef Empanadas, Chicken Empanadas (YES HOMEMADE EMPANADAS) Tequeños, Lattes, coffee...then... the cakes..Carrot, Red Velvet, Rainbow, Oreo Cheesecake, Limoncello, Chocolate. And please... dont forget the CONNOLIS AND MACARONS! Heaven help us all...just do this place! Seriously!

The American dream is still alive! Incredibly nice family that owns this gelato business. Fresh, baked in-house goods, the gelato is made in small batches with incredible flavors by Manny and I believe they even have espresso. Everyone enjoyed their scoops. I will be telling all of my family and friends about this little shop.

We went for the first time today, visiting from out of town, saw the reviews and decided it was just what our day needed. Delicious - creative flavors - their chocolate, chocolate chips was thick, rich, and oh so good. I also had their banana ice cream which was a great compliment to the chocolate. Will be back for more next time we are in town or maybe tomorrow:)

We found this local gelato shop on Google with very high ratings.  We drove 15 minutes and were extremely pleased that we did.  The owner was behind the counter and explained each flavor to us and then let us taste.  WOW!! Every flavor we tried was fantastic, rich, creamy and very flavorful.  Deciding which ones to buy and eat were the hard part.  You cannot go wrong stopping by this great gelato shop. When we come to Jacksonville in the future this will be a destination stop for us.

Go here! Unbelievably great homemade gelato. Too many flavors to decide, all made in store with real ingredients. Cakes also looked great, and the coffees are great. Plus two of the nicest guys youll ever meet own the place and work all night to make everything. Again, nothing to think about, just go once and it will be your regular place

First let me start off by saying the customer service was wonderful. This was my first time visiting Bambino Scoops. I goggled locations for cannolis and found this place close to my current location, and I was glad I stop in. The owner was very friendly and ask if this was my first time in and gave us a overview of the flavors of ice creams, sorbets and other items that he offered. I tried the Margarita Sorbet and got some cannolis and everything was delicious. I will be returning because I have found a gem.

We stopped at Bambino Scoops while waiting for our take out order from a nearby business. Such a wonderful experience! Yes, we did end up eating dessert first…but you gotta live a little, huh!?!? The owners are so friendly, the gelato is made in house and is so fresh and delicious! And the limoncello cake was AMAZING!!! Bambino Scoops is our new weekly treat spot!

A yelp find! Hidden in a Public strip mall lies this unassuming ice cream shop. Inside are many flavors of homemade gelato AND sorbet. I got the sweet potato flavor after a sample. Its got a good texture, a flavor that reminds me more of taro than the typical american sweet potato, and came with a waffle round. A delicious experience and one I will revisit again soon!

I love the local “at home” atmosphere this place promotes! The service is amazing and the gelato is delicious. I tried several flavors (non dairy and dairy) and settled on the cookies and cream. It was sweet and rich! I love it. When it comes down to an ice cream shop Bambino’s is a the top of my list.

Review №48

We were looking for an Ice cream shop to support but wanted a small business and not a big chain place. We are not disappointed with googles suggestion of Bambinos.It is a small hole in the wall type of place and it has a great small town, ice cream shop rite of vibe. They serve gelato, not ice cream, but it also still tasted great. There were lots unique flavors all made in house. I had the Choco chip coffee/white wine with a brownie, whip cream and chocolate syrup. The brownie was warm and delicious. The gelato didnt have that weird wine taste and the flavors blended great.The owner (manni) is very friendly and you can tell he has a passion for what he does.

Visited this establishment while visiting Jacksonville. We were greeted and welcomed by sweet Isabella. She is friendly and so helpful when picking a gelato or sorbet flavor (I had a scoop of each!).The shop was very clean. We were able to sit inside and eat our treat while watching it pour the rain. We met the manager as well and again he was very welcoming, so nice and appreciative of our business. If youre in the Jacksonville area and wanting a sweet treat I highly recommend this shop! Easily found via GPS and plenty of parking as well as outdoor seating.

Omg..ok, where do I start? This place is Amazing. The owners are thee most courteous and kind people Ive ever met at a business. Very polite, explained flavors, without me having to ask. Offered samples, without me having to ask. Offered suggestions and explained other options if what they had wasnt enough. It was plenty. The sorbet/Gelato was stupendous. The birthday cake ice cream was sooo good. The toll house was even more delicious. My family and I WILL be making this a weekly thing for us. We loved the desserts and the staff. Also, the Avengers poster was a Win for me from the start. You will not be disappointed. Thank you for such great service and great ice cream.

I was on a lunch break looking for a smoothie place around and found this adorable little place.If it wasnt so far from where I live Id make it one of my once a weekers. As soon as I walked in it smelt amazing. Im assuming the owner, was who made me feel comfortable in a new place and helped me figure out what smoothie I wanted.. While I was waiting for my delicious smoothie i looked around and found all kinds of goodies. Milkshakes, gelato, cannoli (which I bought one of), paninis and cakes! 😋 I wish I could have had one of everything! Definitely recommend stopping in. Everytime Im on that side of town, I will be.

Went in today at 8:20 cause we didn’t know they closed at 8. The owner was just shutting down but still welcomed us in, took his time with us and gave us a great experience. The Gelato and the Cannoli were great, but the hospitality was by far an experience itself. We will definitely be back. Thank you for taking us in.
