The Taste SheriffMarch 11, 2016The name stands for "The Greek Women" in Italian. Here you can find probably the best gelato in downtown Athens. All the flavors are mouth watering, you really can't go wrong. Open till very late too!Upvote14Downvote
Giwrgos MegremisAugust 16, 2017One of the best ice cream shops in town. Rare flavours, genuine pure ingredients. Gianduia chocolate is smooth and fascinating. New flavour salted caramello is to die forUpvote13DownvoteUpvoted 3 weeks ago
Kyriakos G. 🍺 🍔October 1, 2016So fresh and creamy gelato ice cream with many extraordinary flavors. Surely the best pistachio flavor I've ever tasted!

Iraklis PatsialosAugust 4, 2019Tasty gelato in a range of flavors using only quality, fresh, local or imported ingredients. Open until late at night at weekends. You have to try the menta stracciatella.

Spiros TheocharisApril 24, 2017An excellent shop with delightful ice cream flavours which are not usually found in other shops of its kind. Also ,they use natural Greek products to make their ice cream.Upvote1Downvote
Avi SimonMarch 31, 2019Very nice selection of ice creams divided into four categories (see picture). Some flavors are amazing others standard but all without artificial stuf. Great place for an ice cream recharge!

Upvote1Downvote - George ErotidisNovember 10, 2018Have a taste of authentic Italian gelato in this small ice-cream shop downtown. They make excellent sorbet but for something more unusual try the mascarpone with figs flavour (recommended)!UpvoteDownvote
Giannis AnagnostopoulosMarch 23, 2019Simply the best ice cream in the center of Athens!!!P.S.: During the summer months don't forget to take a break with an ice cream from Le Greche... 🍦UpvoteDownvote
Maria BakNovember 1, 2014If you love Italian places like I do and you search for them, this a must-place on your list! What I love about it: you can choose the ice-cream flavor you prefer for your affogato! Mine is cookies!Upvote2Downvote
The best (italian style) ice cream place downtown Athens. Unique flavors fro. The best ingredients. Dont forget to try sandwitch ice creams and cannolisUpvote1Downvote
Best gelateria in the area. They only use seasonal, fresh and natural ingredients so they regularly update their flavours. Definitely try their pistachio and various sorbets!Upvote9Downvote- New entries:gelato caramello salato and cubano sokolatìna!!! Ask for a nocciolino (amazing coffee with hazelnut)!Upvote1Downvote
Vaso VynichakiJuly 22, 2016All ice cream wonderfull but quite expensive. I also ordered a freddo espresso with little sugar. I paid 2.50 even if 2.20 was designated in the catalog. Most important, i got a very sweet coffee.Upvote1Downvote
Can MOctober 20, 2015Just like a Greek yoghurt, this ice cream is rich in flavor and texture. Creamy goody, don't miss the mascarpone with figs and an European must; the pistaccio.UpvoteDownvote
Great ice cream! Unique flavors. I tasted Ricotta with bergamot & aperol and I couldn't believe how much I liked it!

Athina 👄👅💔👌September 25, 2015Best interesting flavors of ice-cream, different than the others... I tried pavlova flavor, was good, but I will come back to try chocolate flavors. However, the price could be cheaperUpvoteDownvote

Stamatis DiamantasMay 12, 2015Try the lemon-spermint sorbet if you're a sorbet lover otherwise I advise you to taste the cream and cookies gelato or the Guanaja Valrhona chocolate!!!UpvoteDownvote
annlouMay 3, 2017Delicious ice cream. First time i had the chocolate with prunes and rum - too strong chocolate taste for me. Second time the hazelnut - amazing.UpvoteDownvote

George YannarosMarch 17, 2015First time here and because of the cold weather I tried only a small stick on the go. It was delicious! Next time I will have ice cream scoopsUpvoteDownvote- Stelios MakrinosAugust 12, 2016The Valrhona Chocolate here might be the best chocolate gelato/ice cream I have ever had...and I've had quite a few!UpvoteDownvote
Best ice cream in the area - to say the least. Try any of the Valrhona chocolate varieties or chocolate with rum and prunes.Upvote2Downvote
Very good ice-cream and it seems that they use good quality ingredients, but it's not something special. I liked the hazelnut flavor, but I didn't like the ricotta bergamot. Staff could be friendlierUpvoteDownvote
