Welcome to Gelato Paradiso, a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Laguna Beach, California. This charming gelato shop offers a delightful array of artisanal gelato and sorbetto flavors that will satisfy your sweet cravings. From the rich and creamy Doppio Cioccolato Gelato to the refreshing Fragola Sorbetto, there is something for every palate.

As a food reviewer of Restaurant World, I had the pleasure of exploring the offerings at Gelato Paradiso, and I must say, it truly lived up to its reputation. The homemade cones are top-notch, and the generous portions make it a great value for the price. The flavors are bold, the textures are silky, and the service is prompt and courteous.

One standout flavor that I highly recommend is the chocolate sorbetto - a true summer treat that will leave you craving more. The dairy-free options are just as delicious as their dairy counterparts, proving that Gelato Paradiso caters to all dietary preferences.

    This was worth the hype! We went on a Tuesday evening while touristing Laguna Beach on a work trip, and there was a short line. It's a tiny little shop in the cutest alleyway. Gelato is delicious and the homemade cones are top notch. I thought it would be more expensive too, but it was great.

    I had a great time at this place. It's at the end of a cute, little street. The line moves fast, and the ice cream is really delicious and creamy. I got three scoops on a cone for less than $8, which is a great deal. I'll definitely be visiting again. It's now my top ice cream spot!

    THE gelato & sorbetto destination in Laguna Beach! Right off Main Beach, totally worth the waiting in the winding line down an aisle to get served in this little gelato shop. Best chocolate sorbetto I've had. Guava sorbetto also very good. A bit underwhelmed with the blackberry gelato & the almond tasted more like vanilla. Very quick service, generous portions, esp for $8. No seating, so plan to eat standing in the alley.

    Excellent gelato if you're looking for a quick summer treat! it's location is in a very cute alleyway right in Laguna Beach right downtown. We figured it must be really good because there's a very long line (that moved very fast). It's always a very good marker if the nondairy sorbetto is as good as the dairy base gelato. Highly recommend the chocolate sorbetto . If you get a large cup, you can get four flavors.
