Vivoli il Gelato 🍨
Vivoli il Gelato brings the feel of a traditional Italian gelateria to Disney Springs with gelato, sorbet, espresso drinks, shakes, and other sweet creations. With roots connected to the
famous Florentine gelato tradition, this little shop offers a nice alternative to standard American ice cream when you want something rich, creamy, and easy to enjoy while exploring The Landing.
🍴 Experience
A visit to Vivoli il Gelato is quick and casual, but choosing what to order can take longer than expected once you start looking at all the flavors. You can stop for a simple scoop, combine several flavors, or choose one of the more elaborate gelato-based treats. It works equally well as an afternoon snack or an after-dinner dessert and is especially convenient when you want something sweet without sitting down at another restaurant.
ℹ️ Info

✨ Atmosphere
The shop has a small, charming gelateria feel that fits nicely into The Landing. It is much more intimate than many of the large restaurants nearby, with the colorful gelato case
providing most of the visual appeal. The atmosphere is casual and inviting, but because space is limited, many guests take their treats outside and enjoy them while walking around the waterfront area.
🍔 Food
Gelato is the star, with a selection of creamy flavors ranging from traditional favorites to richer chocolate, nut, fruit, and specialty combinations. Sorbet gives you another option if you prefer something lighter and fruitier. The menu may also include more elaborate desserts built around gelato, giving you the choice between a simple scoop and something that feels
much more indulgent.
🍹 Drinks
Vivoli also offers coffee and espresso-style drinks that pair naturally with the Italian dessert menu. You may find cappuccino, espresso, and other coffee choices alongside shakes or frozen beverages. Combining coffee and gelato can be particularly appealing after dinner when you want both dessert and a little caffeine before continuing your Disney Springs evening.
🌾 Allergies
Disney is very conscientious about food allergies and dietary needs, and many restaurants have procedures in place to help guests with common food allergies and dietary restrictions. Depending on the location, allergy-friendly menus, ingredient information, or assistance from a chef or manager may be available. Menu items, ingredients, and preparation methods can change, so guests with food allergies should discuss their specific needs with the restaurant team before ordering.
