Gelato By Patrizia runs the gelato program inside Eataly NYC Downtown, serving Italian-style gelato made with high-quality ingredients and classic Italian techniques. Guests stop in between shopping or after work for dense, slow-churned flavors that taste closer to a neighborhood gelateria than a typical mall dessert counter.
