Nani's Gelato

Nani’s Gelato, located just a block south of Yonge and Bloor at 6 Charles Street East, is a haven for dessert lovers and adventurous foodies seeking high-quality, freshly made frozen treats. Founded by Parry Sohi, this flagship shop blends traditional Italian gelato-making techniques with diverse, nostalgic Asian and Indian flavors. Every morning, the staff produces fresh gelato on-site, offering a rotating menu that changes every two weeks. This biweekly rotation features inventive creations like Kashmiri Chai, Matcha, and Mango Saffron Cheesecake alongside classic options.

The shop caters to various dietary preferences with both dairy and dairy-free options, served in formats ranging from cups and cones to milkshakes and take-home pints. Customers appreciate that they can combine two flavors for the price of a single-scoop cup, allowing for creative pairings like Vietnamese Coffee and Biscoff. Reviewers frequently praise the perfect, smooth texture and note that the gelato is satisfyingly balanced without being overly sweet.

As a quick-service, grab-and-go concept, the cozy Charles Street storefront does not offer indoor seating, meaning guests will need to enjoy their treats on the move. However, the opportunity to discover limited-run, heritage-inspired flavors makes Nani's Gelato a rewarding stop for anyone craving a premium frozen dessert.
