About:
Via della Maddalena 20, Rome, Italy 00186
Gelateria Della Palma is a large place near the
Pantheon. On the menu, there is a large selection of sandwiches and an array of
drinks, including cappuccinos and espressos. The interior decor somewhat mimics
a 1950s American Soda Shop, but the Italian flair is still abundant. This café
has the largest selection of gelato, with so many flavors you can't begin to try
them all!

della Palma
Near Giolitti is a contender
for the crown of "best gelato in Roma". Della Palma doesn't have
those ubiquitous sign cards telling you the flavors; they simply
put a sample of the flavor item on top of the tin. For example
the orange is topped with orange slices, the frutti di bosco
with blueberries, wild strawberries and raspberries. Just
figuring out what some of the items are is fun.

In thirsty
summer days in Rome, there is no better place for me to visit
than the fabulous gelateria “Della Palma”. Just a few steps away
from the dome of the sacred Pantheon square, this cosy,
traditional place exhibits a dazzling display of dozens
and dozens of “gelati” of all kinds and top quality…. an
astonishing variety of cool tastes, flavours and colours
to be found nowhere else! The secret of its unchallenged success
lies in the expertise of the house lab, whose master gelataio,
Sandro Proia, often enjoys to serve personally old and new
clients. My family has been a steady client
of “La Palma” for three generations, and for more
than one good reason.

Whenever I have a little time off, I make
sure to visit “Della Palma”, a consolidated tradition in Rome as
a meeting point during all seasons. It’s by far my favourite
establishment in Rome, because it features the absolute greatest
choice of top quality gelati in all flavours, sorbetti and
mousse creations, all superbly prepared by “chef” Sandro Proia.
Every cup or cone I buy is always personalized at least two or
three different flavours – the fruit ones, especially, are
divine! Plus, I can enjoy my gelato while standing, sitting in
or outside the premise, or even continuing my walking in the
streets of the Eternal town…

| When my grandchildren
deserve a reward, I like to walk them to “Gelateria Della
Palma”, just behind the Pantheon Square in the old center of
Rome, to treat them to a choice of their favorite gelato.
They cherish so much the colorful sight of so many flavors
of “gelati”, the exquisite pleasure in licking their cone,
and also the envy for the large sized ones that I always buy
for myself. Not only do I think one can’t find a more
appealing looking gelato in Rome, but I am positive no one
can find a better tasting one - I love that I can taste the
fresh fruit or the authentic chocolate in every bite I take.
Also, it makes me feel good that my grandchildren are eating
natural, healthy ingredients, rather then chemical
substitutes or additives.
Sandro Proia is keeping high the
flag of tradition!

I am passionate about
gelato artigianale, which luckily I have the opportunity to
enjoy almost all year long in Rome, thanks to its mild
climate. My absolute favorite gelateria in Rome is “Della
Palma”, near the Pantheon, located in a wonderful corner of
the ancient city. There, I can find countless varietes of
gelato, among which, my favorites are the most creative
ones, such as sacher torte, millefoglie, amaretto and
passion fruit, “kisses” and so on. No other gelateria offers
a similar variety of flavors or a quality that comes close
to that of “Della Palma”. Since I am a regular customer
there, I have had the opportunity to meet Mr. Sandro Proia,
who has explained to me how he personally creates, every
day, such an incredible array of flavors, which, according
to me, are the very best in Rome.

I am often downtown Rome
for business or pleasure and I often times I go out of my
way to make a stop at the gelateria “Della Palma”, to taste
a few of the over one hundred, extraordinary flavors
available. I can honestly say that I have never been
disappointed by the quality or the variety that I can find
only at “Della Palma”! I never fail to recommend it as a
must-go place to all my friends, whenever they visit me in
Rome.

I am a student of Art
History and I have been visiting the Della Palma Gelateria
for ten years now, a spot where people from all over the
world gather for one and one reason only- their gelato; it’s
the absolute best and this is true art in the kitchen. If
people had a chance to express their opinion by casting a
vote, not all the numbers in the world would be enough – it
is that good !!!!!!!

I am a patron of the famous gelateria “Della Palma”, located
in Rome. I can personally guarantee that this gelateria is
the very finest in all of Rome, both for the quality of its
products and the creativity. They offer more than one
hundred flavors. This is not my opinion only but that of
many others. I am more familiar with the dietetic gelato
because I am an athletic type of person.
Hooray for Della Palma |
I am writing to recommend
my hands down, absolutely favorite gelato in all of Rome. I
grew up in this city and ever since I was a child I have
been making regular visits to the famous Della Palma
gelateria with my parents. Now that I have a child of my
own, I would like to continue the tradition, to let my
daughter enjoy the BEST gelato Rome has to offer.
