text: Good gelato at a high price.\n\nMercurio's is a neat little gelato place located in the heart of Shadyside. The atmosphere is very classy and feels very much like a place where adults would enjoy a sweet treat. The selection is great and the flavors all sound very delicious. I was a little confused by the menu located behind the freezers, which may have contributed to the high cost of my gelato. Ultimately I ended up buying the medium-sized, two flavor gelato... which can range in weight up to 3oz (or $2.50) depending on how the server decides to scoop it.\n\nWhile the gelato is excellent, it is overpriced in my opinion. I don't think I can justify spending $6 on a tiny dish of frozen goodness, no matter how good it may be. This place will be an occasional treat but isn't likely to be a frequent stop.
