"After a day exploring Osaka, Gelateria Circo D'oro feels like a treat: the owner trained in Italy so the Italian-style gelato is incredibly fresh and made daily, with Sicilian Pistachio as a popular flavor, a citrusy yuzu sherbet made from wild yuzu from Umaji village, and an affogato that Xu calls 'out of this world.'" - Kim Kay

This is my most favorite gelato shop in Osaka. The owner of this shop is very friendly and talk about his gelato history in Sicily. I recommend pistachios, rum raisin and affogato. :))

A gelato store. Eating inside is prohibited because of Coronavirus, and only one group is allowed in. The rest of us have to wait in line outside.
I ordered the Creamy Pista for 620 yen. It is pistachio and milk gelato. The pistachio tasted like soybean flour.

Best Pistazien icecream. I traveled a lot. But this shop has pistachio on point. Amazing.

The most over price for what you get ice-cream I've ever had in my life. ¥450 for a cup (the size of my thumb) of plain ice-cream with some Carmel sauce on top. Disgusting.
The only ice-cream shop I know that doesn't serve cones either.
Not worth it! Konbini ice-cream is better!

Very flavoursome ice cream, the pistachio especially was very good. The owner was super friendly, welcoming and very patient while we chose. I would happily go back.

The best pistachio I had in a long time! Also, the attention was incredible. They were lovely with us and even shared a bit of the shop story with us :)
I really recommend this place
