Momento Gelato and Coffee

Nakul Gandhi a month ago

Great tasting gelato! It’s funny, I had the gelato once from a grocery store a couple years ago and thought it was the best gelato ever. Think it was a lemon custard. I randomly stumbled into the shop late night and ended up being that same gelato. They have such good flavor and richness. Highly recommended! The chocolate almond amaretto is great too!

A good friend of mine recommended this place. He was on target. Fellas & lady's, if you want cool points with your special someone. Take them here, then walk over to the newly renovated Train station. It's a nice quiet shop with great options of Gelato. I took my family in for just Gelato & they were very satisfied. They have inside space to sit & chill. I also saw an outside area as well. We will be definitely going back.

Delicious late night find! So happy I stumbled upon this place. Seating is a little weird as people are coming in and out, you need to move your feet, but great to take on the go. Also, great to get a bigger size and share!

My fiancé and I stopped here early afternoon on a Saturday. Neither of us have had gelato since moving to Michigan. I had the Amarena Cherry Custard Gelato, and he had the Salted Caramel. Both were phenomenal, but the cherry should be award-winning! We can’t wait to come back and try more flavors.

Momento is known for its coffee and homemade gelato. Its most popular item, the affogato, features both. Located near Michigan & Trumbull in Corktown, it’s a great spot for both social gatherings or solo visits. The staff is friendly and efficient. The affogato lives up to the hype. Not only does it satisfy a sweet tooth, it’s also a nice pick-me-up. The gelato flight is a great option for sharing. $17 may seem steep, but it’s cheaper than ordering multiple individual cups. Of the five flavors I’ve tried, the pistachio is my favorite. Momento also offers baked goods and sorbet. I’ve had the lemon and raspberry sorbets, and personally prefer the lemon. While the baked goods are outsourced, the croissant I had was delicious. I’ve also tried the lemonade. It was too sour for my liking, though I’m hoping it was just an off batch. There are also some savory options, like breakfast sandwiches and paninis, I plan on trying one day. In the few times my family and I have been to Momento, we’ve always left happy. Gelato isn’t especially common in the Metro Detroit area, so having a solid spot like this in one of the city’s most happening neighborhoods shouldn’t be taken for granted.
