Founded in 2005 in historic Fairhaven, Washington, Sirena Gelato was started by our family to strive to produce the highest quality product available, made in the heart of Bellingham. In 2011, we opened our second location in beautiful downtown Kirkland, Washington. We had a 3rd generation gelato maker from Italy train us in the art of making gelato.
Most of our fruit flavors are fat-free, dairy-free sorbets made from delicious seasonal favorites. Our dairy-based flavors are made with exotic ingredients, including Turkish imported organic hazelnuts, premium black cocoa chocolate, and slow roasted pistachios. Every batch of our gelato is made the old-fashioned way, hand scooped and hand decorated, one pan at a time.

Services
They make perfect gifts for your teacher, children's birthday party, school bus driver, grandparents, boss, bridal shower, office party, cousins, neighbors, baby shower, mailman, best friends, babysitter, or as raffle prizes and holiday gifts. Did we forget anyone?!? You can email Robin directly at: sirenagelato@comcast.net and give her your mailing address and phone number.
Sirena Gelato uses a local dairy for our milk, free of growth hormones, as well as seasonal fruit purees. We also make dairy-free flavors. The creaminess of our product comes from density instead of fat. Most ice cream on the market contains upwards of 18% butterfat, but our milk-based gelato flavors contain only 4-8% fat, and our fruit flavors less than 1%.

My favorite Gelato place to go to I'm always excited to go here knowing their Gelato is some of the best i've ever had. Didn't except to much when my mom introduced me but when I tried their lemon gelato I knew i'd have to come back soon. Everything is great, the service, the cleanliness, sometimes I do admit there's a bit of a line but it's all worth it for a taste of their delicious gelato!

Kirkland’s neighborhood dessert spot. The folks that work here are wonderful no matter how busy they get. They can have spurts of long lines and impatient customers, and they still hustle to get you what you want. It’s a great date spot while walking around. It’s great for families.
This was one of our go tos for summer evening desserts.
My favorite flavors are the Italian chocolate chip, Thruline espresso, and salty caramel. If 3 scoops is too much, sometimes I ask for a split scoop.

Perfect cute ice cream shop right in downtown Kirkland! We ordered a kids scoop of pistachio and black cocoa. It was a perfect size since we were pretty full from dinner.
Came around 8 on a Friday and there was no line, but no seats also. There is also puppy gelato with different flavors. Overall, really liked the gelato and will definitely come back to try the other flavors!

Emh... this Gelato place leave much to be desired. It is like a meat lover eating a tofu Bahn mi, it is edible but yeah.. you know you are not satisfied with it.
I personally do not like the texture of their Gelato. It is not smooth but rather slimy, and sticky. We ordered a small with Espresso/Tiramisu and both are equally unimpressive. The flavors are very watered down and we actually decided not to waste anymore sugar quota on them. I hate to waste food, but these are so bad I need to discard them.

This has been our usual pit stop after a swim in the lake all through the summer. They have interesting seasonal flavors. Mango was a hit with the kids all through summer. Now they have pumpkin pie. But my go to here is rose petal, pistachio and coconut! Don't forget the waffle bowl! Refreshing and delicious!

I am SAD because I just haven't been impressed by Sirena Gelato :(
My boyfriend and I live in the area, and we frequently take walks around Downtown Kirkland. We walk by Sirena a lot, and we have tried it two or three times. Their gelato isn't bad, but I didn't think it was great. It sits somewhere in the middle. I'm a huge fan of pistachio-flavored anything, and I was really disappointed in their pistachio gelato. It didn't really taste like anything. It did have chunks of pistachios in it, which I appreciated. I feel like maybe a got a bad batch because I see a lot of

The store was clean and friendly. Workers had a nice demeanor despite us coming in late towards closing. The gelato itself was not overly sweet, something I'm sensitive towards, and had that pleasant gelato chewy texture.
If i recall, the many unique flavors were all locally sourced as well.
For the quality of the gelato, the price was nice as well. If you're looking for good gelato at a decent price, this is the place.

Best gelato ever!! Would come here again with my friends, love this place. The flavors are fantastic and the employees are super sweet as well. There was a “karen” in front of me who was complaining about samples but the employee handled it with a lot of patience which I could’ve never done. Make sure to tip well when you go! All in all, 11/10 stars from me :)

There's a constant line for this gelateria, but people get served really quickly. There's a lot of seating area nearby if you wanted to sit down and enjoy your gelato. When it comes to gelato, I typically get fruit-based non-dairy options and was really surprised that this place didn't have any. The limited options and the fact that I've had better gelato elsewhere knocked a star off my rating.

I was in the mood for some Gelato while in Kirkland, WA and Sirena Gelato came up in the search so I decided to check it out.
Here are my ratings based on different criteria:
Quality of gelato: Great. I base my rating of gelato with how good (or bad) the pistachio flavor is. A good rule of thumb that I learned in Italy was that if the pistachio flavor gelato looks too green then it's fake. I was happy to notice that at Sirena, the pistachio gelato was only mildly green. I was really sold, however, after taking the first bite. The gelato had tons of chunks of real pistachios! This was a welcome

Tasty gelato and great selection!
It’s summer time and gelato is a great little treat on a hot day :).
We got the medium size which comes with up to three flavors, which for us were hazelnut (my favorite), pistachio (close second) and coconut. They all had little pieces of nut/coconut which added a little crush and a lot of flavor. The medium size was good to share for two.
One of my favorite gelatos in town!

Cute little shop located in downtown Kirkland. You can take your gelato and walk down to the water front because its close enough to the parks nearby. The gelato was tasty and not too pricey. The person working there was really friendly and nice.
My only issue was that I wish they had been more specific about the ingredients in their cones. I think their sugar cone had dairy or eggs but she didn't mention it even though I told her that my kid had food allergies. My daughter broke out with some hives soon after eating the cone... or there could have been some cross contamination. Despite

Great little place in the heart of Kirkland. I love the way the street is open to pedestrians and no cars so you can walk back and forth between stores. The Gelato was heaven. The best Pistachio we have ever had. Tried 3 kinds and they were all great. They have dog gelato made from dog friendly ingrediants, (ask and they will tell you what it is) and my dog never eats treats but actually almost bit me trying to keep me away from the container once I put it on the floor, so I am guessing it's great. Will definitely go back.

Nothing I mean absolutely nothing beats Sirena Gelatos cookies and cream gelato. My entire family craves that deliciousness!
Nothing beats a beautiful walk on a sunny day in downtown Kirkland with a fresh scoop of Sirena gelato topped off with a library stop to pick up some books and a quick park trip with the kids.

Wow this place is one of my favorite places to get gelato around the Kirkland area. It's located a few streets down from the waterfront so perfect to grab and eat while watching the sunset. The staff is super friendly and usually let you try as many flavors as you want. Because of Covid no samples are allowed but I promise you can't go wrong with any flavor!
I usually like going for one flavor with some kind of chunks in it and one w/o chunks. I got one scoop of the chocolate chip hazelnut and one pistachio gelato and they both just hit the spot after a long summer night ya know? The

OMG hands down the most incredible geltato place ever! Takes me right back to my travels in Italy. Its so fresh, creamy and spot on with all their unique flavor options. My absolute favorite flavor is their Thai Coconut! It has the perfect balance of coconut, creaminess and ice cream goodness. I've gone back 2 days in a room for the coconut. Guilty pleasure! Definatley need to get a pint to go next time! My mom tried the pistachio and peach flavors and is in love too. For the price of $5 you get a generous portion of 2 flavors of your choice. The staff here is always so welcoming and helpful

In a cozy downtown, close to beach and on a rainy or shiny day, this is the place you much visit. They make authentic tasty ice cream and yummy milkshakes. I tried ice cream with one scoop of Thai coconut, another scoop of organic Turkish Hazelnut and pistachio milk shake with light whip, they all are AWESOME !!! Must try.
