Linz and Vail: Delectable Gelato in Evanston

Who doesn't crave scrumptious gelato to temper these hot summer days and evenings? Linz & Vail in Evanston is just the relaxing Italian ice cream gem you seek, with its inviting chocolate-brown and bubblegum-pink walls, happy service, and real-deal gelato. When traveling around the world, Linz and Vail owner Susan Dejanovic loves indulging in gelato. She especially loves how gelato merchants customarily welcome their guests to select more than one flavor at a time, as deciding on just one is so difficult. Susan's stores carry on this tradition by encouraging you to try new flavors and select two or three for your cone or dish.

Chocolate is Linz and Vail's bestseller, but Tastybeat's favorites are Nutella and Pistachio. Exceptional! With over 10 flavors of daily-made gelato to choose from each time you visit, you'll want to return. And Linz and Vail now carries gelato-style frozen yogurt! The refreshing key lime is wonderful.

You'll find Linz and Vail in two locations. The small Noyes Street store is just a few doors down from featured Tastybeat gem Al's Deli and across from the Noyes Cultural Center, which houses the well-respected Piven Theatre, Next Theatre, and Actors Gymnasium. Linz and Vail's other Evanston location is in the center of the bustling shopping Central Street shopping district.

Be sure to check out the update on past gem, Amidei Mercatino.

Happy Licking!
