The Best Gelato Shops in San Francisco

"This gelateria and mini-grocery store hybrid in the Marina serves ultra-smooth, mostly Italian flavors like stracciatella and tiramisu, as well as fruit-forward vegan gelato. Of course, you can get your scoops in a cup or a cone, but you could also get them stuffed inside bread. Ask for a brioche bun that’s been split wide open, and filled with a big scoop of your choice of gelato. No matter the approach, we always suggest ordering a filled-to-order cannoli on the side and grabbing a seat by the window to count how many passing dogs are wearing fitted jackets." - patrick wong, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
