Dolcezza Gelato & Coffee
Dolcezza serves gelato, coffee and espresso at 1704 Connecticut Ave NW, just north of Dupont Circle. Google describes gelato handcrafted from local ingredients, and the shop has a 4.6-star Google rating across 1,223 reviews.
Reviewers single out the range and quality of flavors, such as Thai coconut milk, dark chocolate, hazelnut, pistachio and peanut butter chip, and staff who let customers sample freely. Coffee drinks and pastries like almond croissants also get mentions. The common caveats are that it is a bit pricey, often crowded, and that some find the gelato very sweet.
