With a rich, smooth taste, all natural flavors and 70% less fat than ice cream, gelato is God’s gift to women. It’s perfect for a sweet treat and a little walk on a summer evening. We have been going to Paciugo Gelato and Caffe for so long that the owner knows the names of all our kids.

…for GELATO!
Taste: From deep chocolates to light fruit sorbets, Paciugo keeps us coming for more. The natural flavors and 70% less fat provide a worry-free treat that we are happy to introduce to our children.
Presentation: Their frozen case is filled with bright colors and tasteful garnishes. Gelato is not only dessert for the taste buds, but for the eyes as well.
Originality: Gelato is a big deal in it’s native country of Italy, but there are very few caffes in the Kansas City area. We are glad to have found a great place to get our fix!
Service: Customer service is top-notch. Very friendly folks work here and in the five years we have been regular customers, we have never had a bad experience. They know our names, the names of our kids and are always helpful with samples or getting us a little glass of water to rinse all that sweetness down.
Appearance: Although Paciugo is a little small, it is big enough to serve our purposes. It’s not a terribly beautiful place but comfy and clean.
Value: A small cup of gelato (up to 3 flavors) is about $4. I have never gotten a size bigger than this one because it is just the right amount of sweet for me.
Restrooms: Always clean, and painted in one of my favorite shades of orange. 5 stars!
