The staff was very polite and they have a great selection of gelato. I mixed the dark chocolate with the mixed berry to try both ends of the spectrum (flavor profile and texture). The gelato was top tier in terms of flavor and texture (we eat A LOT of ice cream and gelato) and the price is very reasonable especially considering the quality. I would very much recommend making this a delicious destination in Taormina, your only regret will be you didn’t get a second scoop.

Stopped by Gelatomania and loved it! We ordered pistachio and chocolate gelato—both were delicious. The pistachio was smooth and not too sweet, just the right balance. The chocolate had a deep flavor with a surprise chocolate chunk that made it even better. A great spot for quality gelato!

The first time I tried Gelatomania I got salted caramel and coffee flavours. I was blown away by the caramel, it was absolutely incredible. The next time I had mint and lavender. The mint was a very subtle flavour compared to other countries. Lavender was really a lovely and unusual flavour and I would particularly recommend this and the salted caramel. We have now moved on to Cefalu and I had caramel in a gelateria here. So disappointing. I think it will be hard to beat the caramel from Gelatomania in Taormina

Delicious ice cream! Probably the best I've had in Sicily. I went back twice after the first in one day it was so good. Nice staff who noticed me returning. Really good flavours, the strawberry and raspberry genuinely tasted like the fruit rather than just some sweet flavour. The strachiatella and cookie were rich and chocolaty. Delicious!
