If you leave hungry, you're nuts. I had spaghetti and meatballs, my wife had eggplant ? parm. Excellent food. We have bookmarked this in our GPS. We were going to have some Gelato, but we were full. $20 for the Parm, and $18 for Spaghetti. You walk in and it smells amazing.Parking: Not a huge lot, but we we didn't have to wait either. We ate at 4 pm on a Saturday. There is outside seating as well. Manga!Wheelchair accessibility: Wide doors and ramps to outside seating ?

Went to lunch today with some friends. As usual the food was out of this world!!! But what made today’s experience be the best it could be, was our waiter! A wonderful young man named Kolton took care of us! And took care he did! He was very attentive to our needs. Drink refills happened without prompting from us and it seemed like no matter what he was there with a smile! And what a smile! Thank you Kolton for being so great! And thank you Gelato Joe’s for having such great a great staff, and incredible restaurant!

This is our stop before heading to Gulf Shores. The service is always wonderful. Ask for John or Kolton!

We dined here while we were on vacation. Kolton was our server. He was amazing and so was our food. We would definitely go back.

I am a long time customer and LOVED Gelato Joes. Ate there last week and all the food had changed. Bang bang shimp appetizer had cold sauce on the side instead of on the hot shrimp. Broccoli salad that I've always loved had mandrin oranges in it??? It was awfulThe Ruben sandwich had sauce on the side instead of on the sandwich like it use to be. The Ruben was still good.....just different. And the chocolate cannoli had chocolate chips all thru the center Sweetened Ricotta instead of just on the ends. I Love the way it use to be. Is Joe no longer the owner? Our waitess was very very nice!

Drink's were good, appetizer, side, and entree were delicious. No complaints about service. Our party of 4 ate on the deck. Super noisy with the big over head fans running. Would choose to dine inside next time if we ate there again.

This is a go-to joint when I am traveling from Mobile, AL to the Foley/Gulf Shores area. My favorite item is the trio salad plate, of which I usually choose fruit salad, chicken salad and seafood salad. I also like the Italian sandwich, the lasagna and, of course, the gelato and other desserts. The service is always great, wait staff is always fun. It’s a little tight insight as far as seating, but they have an outside covered deck area that is nice. That’s a nice time with live music if the weather is good. Overall great restaurant.Parking: Plenty of parking, but don’t forget about the spaces behind the restaurant.

Daiquiri had no ice, tasted watered down. Ordered chicken cord on Bleu which was very dry. Fettuccine was cold. Would not recommend this restaurant.

The lasagna was amazing but over priced in my opinion. My husband got stuffed raviolis with Alfredo sauce. It was a small portion and didn’t have very much sauce. Not even enough to coat the pasta let alone dip the bread in. The broccoli salad for a side was delicious. Pricey overall. We would go back for the lasagna and spaghetti which we saw people eating and it looked good. All of there sided are homemade

For the prices, the food was just okay. I got a pasta dish for $17 that was supposed to have garlic in it and it just tasted liked buttered noodles. My daughter and husband enjoyed their homemade lasagna, but the chicken fettuccine Alfredo was just okay and portion size was not great for $23. There was not enough Alfredo sauce (it was fairly dry) and they charged us extra for more. Service was good. The food just wasn’t worth the price.

I ordered fettuccine alfredo.l and a strawberry margarita. The margarita was very bitter. The fettuccine alfredo was very dry. I ordered a salad they gave you one little cup of dressing and charged you 50 cents for another little cup of dressing. To go to dinner and purchase two items and spend $40 is crazy. I would have much rather spent $40 for the gentleman singing them for the meal because it was not appetizing at all. Very disappointed!!!
