Amazing. No lie, I can't live without this stuff. I go out of my way to get gelato from here. Try this combo: hazelnut and blood orange. You won't be disappointed.  View Less View More

Rude, snobby, and condescending = Sellwood Staccato Gelato. My family and I live very close to this establishment and, on occasion, we stop by for a treat. However, the last couple of times that we've dropped in have been infuriating, because we feel that we just paid to be treated like second-class citizens.

Don't get me wrong, not all of the employees are rude--there is one girl that is very nice. There is, though, one woman that is so bitter and rude that we vowed not to go back--and to top it all off, this woman is the owner!

On a side note: their products are decent, but not worth the rudeness that comes from behind the counter.  View Less

Snobby servers. I love the gelato and the colorful surroundings but the staff at the NE 28th ave and the Sellwood location are snobby. I took my 2-year-old to the Sellwood location and felt as if we were treated like second-class citizens. No smiles. Didn't feel very welcomed. The fact it happened at both locations is interesting to me.  View Less View More

Gelato is great, even when it's cold. My wife and I are regular customers of the Sellwood shop and while I have to admit that I do not normally share her sweet tooth...I have been won over by the variety of gelato flavors (and perhaps the occasional doughnut). We do enjoy the summertime when we can sit outside with our dog but it's also a great place to hide from the rain, have some tea, and do a little remote work with the free WiFi.  View Less View More

Just can't get enough!. I have been traveling to Portland on business for years and I have a thing for gelato. Every time I make it to PDX, I go out of my way to visit this nice little shop (I hear they have another location as well... haven't been there yet). I chatted with one of the owners (I think her name was Sarah) one morning I was there. She was very nice and quite friendly. We talked about Portland and how nice it was there. It felt very warm , welcoming and casual. Very Portland indeed. The staff there has always been pleasant to me.... And most of them fairly easy on the eyes. I love the tried and true favorite flavors right along with the new and somewhat seasonal offerings like Thai iced tea or Lavender.

I have read some of the other reviews and also would agree that it sounds like perhaps a disgruntled former employee and maybe a few of her friends had written those slanderous remarks.  View Less
