Anita Gelato has become something of a phenomenon. From the bustling heart of New York to the sun-kissed avenues of L.A., long lines filled with eager fans – from everyday folks to A-list celebrities – are a common sight outside its locations. And it's not just the locals; Selena Gomez, Carly Rae Jepsen, and Stranger Things prodigy Noah Schnapp have all been spotted waiting for a scoop of what's quickly becoming America's favorite gelato.
With a strong foothold in two vibrant NY locations and a sunlit spot in L.A., the insatiable demand for Anita Gelato's unique flavors shows no signs of waning. In fact, the brand is gearing up to spread its wings further. The vivacious vibes of Miami are soon to get a touch sweeter with a new Anita Gelato spot. New York isn't being left behind either, with two more locations in the pipeline, including a glamorous spot in the ever-pulsating Times Square — all ready to open their doors this fall.
