The cake that I had (Pistachio) was amazing. It wasn't too sweet, not too heavy on the tummy but just enough. Their gelato was comparable to most gelato places as their prices. They do have a good al fresco location in the plaza though where you can sit, chat and sip your cappuccino. Overall, it was a good experience and can be worth your money.
If you want to go to satisfy your sweet tooth, this would be one of the best places to go to at Venice
Piazza Mc Kinley.
The place is quite small given that there are very few tables inside but oh well you can sit outside and look at the nice view of the area.
Food wise they have amazing cake. Not too sweet and overwhelming. Their gelatos are amazing too. I hope though that they would add some snack food on their menu aside from cakes and ice cream. I think this is the reason why although they have great dessert items, they aren’t visited by a lot of people.
Overall I would recommend this place 100%
The place was empty when me and friends got there. The place was small and the tables were small as well. Though small, ambience is still great. Lighting is good as well. It really looked good on our picture.
Their staff welcomed us with a warm smile. It was our first time here so we asked the staff there what was their bestseller and their recommendations. The staff were good enough to share to us what we should try to have a great experience. They only have small number of choices so it was easy for us to finally decide which one to try.
The gelatos they have are quite pricey but it is just worth it because of its unique taste. Though the texture is not that much the gelato-type, it was still good. They have cute snacks as well that is good if your want to give it so someone.
Good quality of gelato, but is really pricey for a small cup. Too small space, but ambiance and lightings are good. Limited varieties of cakes and gelatos.

I love Chiara’s!
Seating space was small but no one really sits anyway. The store was well lit. It’s a happy place!
Loooooved the speculoos with it’s tiny crisps. The strawberry had real strawberries! And the dark chocolate wasn’t sweet! I picked the perfect combination.
My friend loved the coffee gelato too. And my other friend loved the pistachio which was very nutty.
Not as sticky as real gelato but stickier than the usual Filipino ones 😊
Will come back for the cakes and hoping for more flavors.
Staff is polite and very helpful with our orders. 🤗 I ordered for Foresta Nera as suggested by kuya. This is one of their best sellers for gelato 🍨 Chiara's our go-to cake shop before and it's the first time i've tried their gelato, didn't disappoint. 🤸♀️ I gave them a 4 because when we went there it was really humid. The aircon isn't working 🙄 and it's summer 🙄
I know it's a gelateria but I love going here for coffee and cake. They make very good espresso-based hot drinks. The cakes are reasonably priced and yummy. Haven't tried the gelato though, but I've tried the Amarcord (a mango-based gelato + toast dessert) which was just ho-hum.
Mango almond delight is good, we bought a whole one for my mother's Birthday yesterday night sa Grand Canal Venice Mckinley. Na-notice lang namin kagabe na yung cashier seems to have a problem, hindi sya naka smile. ok lang naman yun pero nakasimongot sya, nakakaloka kahit masarap yung binebenta nyo hindi naman warm and friendly yung staff nyo wala din.
Very good cakes and gelato ice creams. Very exquisite taste. Yet bad service. I wanted to order the whole Midnight Slice cake and asked for the latest expiration they have. One crew said February 28, 2018 po. Today is Feb 25, 2018...im like, really 3 days nalang...wala nang mas late p dun?.... Wala n po maam. And so i decided to take 2slices of it and 2slices of the other cakes and a cup of gelato... After i paid, the cashier said that there was an expiration of March 2, 2018. And So i was really diasspointed with them...(realllyyyy after i ordered slices of it ...now ur saying na meron pala!!!)...maygush. and so i we just ate and enjoyed the cake i ordered at home. Still delish!
Im just so sad that we were not able to buy the whole Midnight Slice cake :(
Chiara's is an Italian dessert shop located right by the Venice canal and the malls own love lock bridge. We don't normally go here as were mostly worried about the tourists obsessing over the canal. But at 2pm on a weekday, we were lucky enough to have the place almost to ourselves.
For a gelato place, they only have 10 flavors and a very small display chiller.They have a display of cakes on the side and serve coffee too.
Our gelato was pretty good. They were very creamy, not icy, not foamy. According to the server their strawberry is a bit sour because they use real strawberries. However I didn't see any seeds on them, so not sure how they used real ones. The pistachio was really good too. But, no nuts in my scoop. My favorite was the ricotta with caramelized figs! It only said ricotta on the display, I had to guess what it was and confirm it with the server. My toddler got all vanilla and she was able to finish a whole cup. I didn't bother to try the other flavors.
They use a small scooper, I love that you can choose 3 kinds even for the small cup, 120/cup.
Their vanilla caffeine-free frappe was so disappointing at 160. It had more milk than gelato, super malabnaw. At least it wasn't icy. But my son was not happy at all. He was hoping his order of a "shake" would yield more ice cream for him. Guess we're not coming back for that.
We sat right outside their store, though they also have tables right by the canal. We were lucky enough to enjoy the cool air conditioning coming out from the mall doors right beside the shop. Luckier that there were barely any people passing by.
