Always delicious !!! I got avocado ice cream . I kinda expected it a little more avocado flavor and greener. But it was delicious . Tony sopranos favorite ice cream . Next time I’ll try the cherry vanilla

I drove all the way from nyc to try this icecream. Its cute inside. I cant believe its open 86 years. Historical and iconic. The watermelon ice was the best I've ever had. Memorable. The peach icecream had real peaches in it. Fantastic. I tried so many flavors. All amazing. I had the tartufo. It blew my mind. The chocolate was elegance in the mouth. Id drive over the bridge and back into the congestion zone for that any day. Greatest staff. I need to try a cake next time.

Hands down...one of the BEST homemade ice cream parlors EVER!! The cherry on top is the attentiveness of the owners and their commitment to customer care. I appreciate Frank, Dean, Victoria, Gabriella and the rest of the Nasto family owners for always taking time to make me and my family feel welcomed, valued, and cared for. Your generosity, attention, and accommodations for my son's allergy needs, especially, have been beyond appreciated. Again, thank you for valuing your customers that value you. That's the best scoop ever! Everyone, if you haven't already, give Nastos a try!!

Nasto’s is a legend, a beacon of light, an anchor in any storm. The ice creams—in a very of Italian and Latin flavors—stun, but I can never resist a reginetta or a tartufo. Each is a handsome meal, or at least a hearty snack. It’s been going since 1939, and I hope it goes forever.

Nasto’s is a great place to get ice cream of many flavors. In the summer they have lemon ice with lemon peel bits. My favorite is pistachio ice cream. They have ice cream cakes and logs at reasonable prices. There are sidewalk tables. I brought some friends from New York who were happy for our visit and loved their ice cream. They once provided me with first aid in the form of plain ice after a hit and run accident from a pickup truck a block away. I always try to get there!!
