Nestled in the charming town of Nizza Monferrato, Da Mimmo - Via Carlo Alberto is a true gem for ice cream lovers seeking an authentic Italian gelato experience. This delightful ice cream shop stands out not only for its superbly crafted flavors but also for the warm, inviting atmosphere maintained by its friendly, multilingual staff.
From the moment you step inside, you’re greeted with a vibrant selection of artisanal gelatos that burst with fresh, natural ingredients. Faces light up at the mention of signature flavors like the hazelnut-chocolate, which one customer fondly declared "the best I’ve ever had in my life." Every scoop reflects a masterful balance of creamy texture and intense, pure taste — whether it’s the rich Sicilian cannoli, decadently dark extra fondente chocolate, or the refreshingly tropical coconut and melon varieties. And if you’re in the mood to indulge, try your gelato "con panna" (with whipped cream); as verified by regulars, it’s fresh, fluffy perfection—not the canned stuff you find elsewhere.
The vibe here is friendly and relaxed, making it the perfect stop after exploring the charming streets of Piedmont. It’s easy to see why travelers and locals alike rave about Da Mimmo’s affordable prices and consistently excellent quality. This little gelateria is cherished as a secret treasure, one guest even mystifying it as a place the locals want to keep off the tourist radar. Yet, every visit convinces you more that this is truly some of the best gelato you’ll ever taste.
Beyond just the taste, what truly makes Da Mimmo special is the genuine care of its team and the warm buzz of a community gathering spot. Whether you’ve been biking through the countryside or strolling through town, this is the ideal place to refresh, recharge, and treat yourself. It’s no surprise that many visitors end up coming back for seconds—and thirds.
If you find yourself in Nizza Monferrato, a visit to Da Mimmo on Via Carlo Alberto isn’t just about ice cream—it’s a small, sweet celebration of Italian tradition, flavor, and hospitality that leaves a lasting impression.

Been riding my bicycle around Piedmont for a week, best gelato I've had. Particularly enjoyed Sicilian canoli and chocolate extra fondente! Make sure you try with whipped cream (con Panna), it's fresh made, not from a can!

I truly don’t understand how this place isn’t on a lonely planet, michelin, or gambero rosso guide yet. I think the only reason they’re not is because the locals have a conspiracy that this place remain a secret . Any flavor they make is going to be out of this world good, but their Fior di Panna is incredible. I strongly believe that you can tell which gelateria is the real deal based on the taste of their most simple product and Mimmo’s have nailed it! If you’re ever in Nizza Monferrato, even if it’s the dead of winter, go and try their gelato. The gates of heaven will open and the angels will start singing hallelujah the moment their tasty creations hit your taste buds!
