Dolcezza - Blueberry Matcha - Gelato Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Dolcezza has a great selection of flavors. The staff is always incredibly friendly, efficient, and welcoming, which makes every visit a pleasant experience. My go-to flavor is the Stracciatella, but this time I decided to try the Blueberry Lavender. It was definitely unique and more of an acquired taste. I didn't pick up much blueberry, and the lavender was a bit overpowering for my preference. My only real complaint is the size of the cups. They give you a very generous scoop, but the cups don't seem large enough to hold it comfortably. My gelato was already dripping all over my hands before I even finished checking out. I appreciate the generous portions, but a slightly larger cup would make the experience much less messy and let you actually enjoy all that gelato without racing against the melt! read more

I went to Dolcezza to tryout their collaboration soft serve but this location did not have the soft serve option that I wanted. I ended up trying the red raspberry and mango gelato. I liked that I could try two different flavors. Both were delicious and tasty. read more

I love love love a good affogato & this place does not disappoint! For the peeps that may not know what I am talking about it's a shot of espresso with a scoop of ice cream YUMMM! I prefer to get mine with dark chocolate ice cream as it makes for a rich & not too sweet affogato. They have a beverage menu, gelato & sorbet menu, as well as frozen pints of gelato to-go. The three girls working today were wonderful & friendly which was refreshing to see as the last time I came the staff was rather distant & not engaged (miserable). Thanks for a very nice Sunday treat and for your gracious staff. read more

I was walking around the Mosaic District and saw a long line in front of this store. It was a cool summer night and everyone was craving gelato. It is located on the first floor of the Target building. The location is great for a treat after a long day of shopping. I saw a sign outside that they were offering a matcha mango drink and was immediately intrigued. I stood in line and went in to place my order. I ordered the medium drink. It came to about $7.50 for the drink. It came out in a normal cup with a bright mix of green and orange. I love matcha and mango so I had to go for it. The drink was very tasty. You had a brief taste of matcha and the sweetness of mango. They both mixed very well. I would have ordered another drink but I didn't want to drop another eight bucks. The gelato seems to be very good but I didn't get a chance to try it this time. read more

Cool vibe, good gelato, steep prices. I had peanut butter chip. The flavor was good, the texture was nice, and it cost $8 for a small. Yikes. read more

Their fruit tea is a bit overwhelmingly sweet, but a great variety with seasonal options. This location gets a bit busy, especially during the weekend when everyone is at Mosaic District. A bit of a tight interior when there's a line or crowd. read more

Dolcezza - Dolce de leche - Gelato Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Stopped by for some gelato. I love the flavors here and the location is great when in this area. It is right below the Target on the street level. They have so many flavors. I believe they offer to let you try a sample. Today I ordered a berry mascarpone with stracciatella. You can pick two flavors with a small scoop in a cup. There isn't much space inside but I think there's a bench outside. Unfortunately you can't see the ice cream to get a visual but definitely ask for a sample if you're interested in a flavor! read more

The gelato here is super yummy and definitely a treat, though be prepared for long lines since it's a popular spot. We tried the lemon opal basil sorbet in a cup, which was so refreshing and unique with that citrusy-herbal twist. On the waffle cone, we went with pistachio Siciliano and stracciatella--both were rich, creamy, and full of flavor, with the pistachio standing out as especially nutty and smooth. The cone itself was crisp and fresh, which made it even better. Overall, delicious gelato with really creative flavors, but just know you'll need a little patience before you get to enjoy it. read more

It is on the first floor of Target building. They have good amount of selections and honestly everything was pretty good. My favorite was mascarpone & berries. If you like pistachio, you will love their pistachio gelato. The only thing is that the space is very limited and the AC is not working enough, that gelato melts pretty quickly even if you eat inside. read more

We've gone here as a post-meal treat/dessert for years! What I like about Dolcezza is their consistency over the years. The service is always pretty quick, and they're happy to provide samples of their flavors. They also have plenty of coffee, and tea options. Their black sesame latte is really delicious if you're into that sesame flavor. Today I got the pistachio and gianduja gelato and it was truly the perfect combo. The pistachio specifically is my favorite but these two flavors worked amazingly together. I do wish they would bring in more season gelato flavors, because I typically see the same flavors. Some added variety would be great! But overall, solid dessert choice that stays open fairly late compared to other options in the area! read more

I really like this place, not a lot of seating inside but it's meant to be that way. It's an order your ice cream/drink and walk around mosaic to look at the other stores in the area. The service has always been fine, when it does get busy they are usually well staffed, so I've never experienced a very long wait. I recently had their pistachio flavor, thought it was delicious! My friend also likes their affogato here too! read more

Still the best in town. The Thai Coconut and Giandulja are incredible. They recently refreshed their shop as well. I always love their affogato as a pick me up. read more

Cute gelato and coffee shop on the corner- I've always seen people go in and out but first time trying it on a Monday night. Parking on the street or in the garages nearby (all walking distance). No line when we went it. They kindly greeted us and asked us if we wanted samples. I went with the small size (you get 2 scoops), and I chose pistachio and the black and white cookie batter. The black and white cookie batter was a fave (my friends tried some of mine). Not much seating indoors or out but we were able to snag a bench right outside. But in the pricier side but it was good! Would I come again? If craving gelato or suggested by a friend, sure! read more

Best. Gelato. Ever. It's truly some of the best ice cream I've ever had. Tips to make your experience even better: 1. Grab an alfajore on the way out (they're amazing) 2. Honestly I'd spring for a fresh packed pint or get a cup of the ice cream in store (sometimes the pre packed pints are a little eh) read more

Dolcezza - Dulce chip and banana split - Gelato Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Very casual place to get your fix of Coffee or Ice Cream.. or both really. It was a hot day when I visited and it was just perfect. Walking in, there's one big corner where to your left there's the gelato portion and to your right, the coffee section. Like any ice cream place, you can ask for free samples as their flavors are really unique.. What is a Avocado Honey Orange? Or a Roasted Strawberry? Interesting flavors to go by here. Luckily, I picked the one that appealed to me. Coffee & Cookies may sound odd but don't knock it until you try it! For the price you pay, you might as well get the 3 scoops but for this review I only got 2. It's a dollar upcharge for three scoops and I did regret not getting that. Portion size, it's small but I guess that's why the small spoon is there so you don't finish it right away. The Coffee & Cookies flavor is amazing. It's like what you expect. Regular coffee that's mixed with Cookies. The coffee taste is very light but sweet as gelato should be. Very delicious for sure. I think if I were to come back here, I'll have to try out the other flavors. Spicy Honey is a flavor? I'll have to try that one next. read more

This is a cute little gelato shop that also does coffee. I didn't have any gelato, but I did get to try a latte. The latte was pretty standard . Although it's not on the menu they do have different flavors that they can add on to your espresso beverages. The seating area was quite small and it felt like the place was really meant to come and get your ice cream or coffee and leave. The service was standard overall as well. I think this would've been a better experience with a more complete menu that really showcases what they actually offered along with more thoughtful seating/walking areas. read more

I've been to this location twice, and both times I had a great experience! Service is fast and great. Ambiance is very casual-- best to go to just pick up a scoop of ice cream, as there are not many seats available! I definitely recommend trying the clementine sorbet-- it was amazing! Super refreshing, juicy, and tangy so great if you're not feeling something too heavy. The sesame ice cream was really unique-- definitely worth trying if you want something new! read more

Dolcezza - Sesame, clementine - Gelato Near Me - Fairfax, Virginia

Small ice cream store with some changing flavors. They let us taste samples which helps a lot when deciding which flavor to get! I am a little sad as I had asked for the coconut dulce de leche but I think they gave me the cookie. It was still good and I had already eaten a lot of the banana foster by the time I started on the dulce the leche so I felt bad if I asked the worker about it. So from my sample coconut dulce de leche 3.5/5 a bit strong on coconut flavor but sweet and yummy Cookie dulce de leche 3/5 very sweet but the cookie is airy and easy to eat! A bit too sweet since I think the coconut balanced it a bit more refreshingly but still yummy Banana foster 3.75/5 nice strong but not overwhelming banana flavor in creamy gelato read more

Why does this place have to be so good, yet so expensive at the same time? It is always packed so expect to wait in a short line. I do like that they let you try the gelato flavors if you cannot decide what to get. A small cup is about $7 and you can choose up to two flavors. My favorite is the hazelnut crunch. So smooth and creamy with that nutty hazelnut flavor. I'm not even sure what the "crunchies" are, but they stay crunchy in the gelato You could also buy pints for $10 each. read more

The service here was great! The location is great! However, this gelato tastes terrible. My daughter and I stopped in tonight. We tried four different flavors. We were not blown away by any of them and actually ended up throwing our gelato away. I spent like $16.50 for two small cups. Definitely wasted that money. And no stracciattella? Come on. Flavors: cinnamon doughnut (gross and overwhelming cinnamon), chocolate fudge (like cacao mixed with coffee), pistachio (tasted like peanut butter) and the cake batter chip (fine.... But not worth the calories) read more

I am in shock. At the farmer's market, in Mosiac's, where we are almost weekly....... I have seen the "Mom & Pop" signs... but I didn't realize it was a coffee place. The line was long on a Sunday morning, but it moved fast. Pastries piled high, mostly croissants. While standing for coffee... and shout out to the coffee makers... they go none stop, they look like they have an incredible system and they just go go go....... Why is there a fridge jam packed with Dolcezza gelato!!! It is one of our fav brands to grab from the grocery store, stracciatella peanut butter is magic. Ok, sorry, back to reality... why is there a fridge stocked with packages of Dolcezza? I start scanning the room... and realize it says Dolcezza in several places. What is going on! We had absolutely no idea they had stores, and why am I ordering a coffee when there's gelato! So one, that would be my only complaint, I could be blind, but I didn't see any sign of Delcezza gelato until I was on the other side in a corner, waiting for coffee. I would have for sure, been unable to resist buying some! My coffee was good, kid complained there was barely any Nutella in her Nutella croissant, but she would still order it again. We will return. read more

Dolcezza is one of my favorite dessert spots ever, hands down. i cannot say enough good things about this place. The flavors are so unique and delicious!

The small cup with two flavors is definitely the way to go. There are so many unique flavors for both gelatos and sorbets. I ordered the Strawberry Terragon sorbet which was DELISH! The touch of terragon complemented the strawberry so well. The gelato I tried was blueberry & lavender ... which also completely blew me away with how tasty and fragrant the flavor was. I could describe the flavor as "pretty". There is a bar to sit at and enjoy the ice cream, but also nice to walk around Mosaic with your ice cream too. There are also benches around you can find. The staff is very nice, and I was able to sample flavors as well before making my decision. Highly recommend stopping here to try some unique flavors! read more

Love the flavors and how smooth the gelato is. The people are usually very nice. The only problem I had was the service the last time I went. We had a little quail with who paid what. The cashier/ person in charge had an attitude and was not helpful. I tried to accommodate so that everyone was happy and to understand the situation but the cashier did not communicate well at all. I understand that there was a lost of communication by the amount of people trying to talk and the line forming but overall the situation was not handled well. I would still go back the gelato though read more

The best thing this place has going for it is location. Right across from the theater and the center of the Mosaic district it is a great place to grab coffee or ice cream and hang out on a nice day or night. Lots of fun flavors and you can sample them. A little costly for the small portions, get the three scoop to share. read more

This hit the spot. And I'm still thinking about it. Ordered a small gelato with a scoop of blueberry lavender and a scoop of black and white cookie batter. Thought it would be just two small scoops but the worker really packed it up for us! And good thing too because we demolished this so fast. The consistency of the gelato is thick but feels light, the taste sweet and refreshing. The cookie batter had soft bits of sugar cookie and dark chocolate chunks, and the blueberry lavender was fragrant with a hint of sour. Fantastic experience! read more

WOW! So far the best gelato spot we've been to! We got the black sesame and coffee & cookies. We loved the coffee & cookies and even contemplated getting a pint of this afterwards (then noticed a sign that said pints were sold at whole foods). Recommend if you love coffee flavor! Our friend got the mascarpone & berries and dulce de leche flavors which were also very indulgent! Flavors are so rich, creamy, & delightfully sweet! Long line, but goes relatively quick. Limited seating. Ask for samples if you're unsure which flavors to choose! read more

Cute little gelato spot in the Mosaic District right next to target. They offer a wide variety of flavors from vanilla bean to coconut dulce de leche to black sesame. See also several dairy-free sorbetto options - blueberry lemon thyme, strawberry tarragon, and grapefruit campari when I visited. I tried the dark chocolate (dark, creamy, comfort in a bite) and grapefruit campari (refreshing, fruity, the sorbet equivalent of a mocktail). The line seemed long, but the space is small and moved quickly. Will be back! read more

Absolutely popping spot for gelato + coffee! We went around 5pm and there was long line but it moved quickly! The gelato texture was amazing here, and would definitely come back to try more flavors! However I was surprised how small the scoops were for the price (3 scoops, $8.80) Gianduja 5/5: would rate 6/5 if I could!! Imagine Nutella but 5x more flavorful! Mascarpone and berries 4/5: decent flavor, wish it had more berries Thai coconut 3/5: mostly just vanilla flavor with a hint of coconut aftertaste. Definitely room for improvement for coconut flavor but texture was still very good. read more

I'm a sucker for gelato, so was happy to learn that while in the Mosaic District, there was a Dolcezza. Dolcezza is a gelato shop with a full espresso bar. It has an assortment of different gelato flavors worth checking out, including seasonal ones. We checked out Dolcezza in the afternoon on a weekday and had the whole place to ourselves. This shop is located along the main strip of the Mosaic shopping area in Fairfax and serves more so as takeout than a place to hang out in. Samples are encouraged! I was able to try a variety of flavors, and decided to get two scoops of the dark chocolate and coffee and cookies gelato. They were delicious and light, and the flavors complemented each other. I'd recommend trying if you lean more towards chocolate flavors than fruity ones. Overall, this is a solid place for gelato or espresso or both! read more

I have always loved the Mom & Pop coffee shop that sold Dolcezza Gelato in pints. I happened to stop by Dolcezza for National Ice Cream Day and they had an awesome deal of buying one getting one small ice cream cup for free! Dolcezza always has rotating flavors that are unique and interesting to try! I love that we can try samples before ordering and could have two different flavors for a small-size cup. We got Dulce De Chip/Coffee in one cup and Blueberry Lavender/Berries Mascarpone for the second cup. My favorite was the coffee and Dulce De Chip! I am not sure if it was for how busy the gelato shop was on this Saturday but the workers looked irritated and annoyed. The service was subpar, which is the reason for 4 stars but the gelato was rich and creamy for this hot day. read more

This is our spot at the Mosiac to grab some coffee, pastries, hot drinks, and gelato after a nice dinner, or for an afternoon snack. My kids love this place. The service is usually friendly (my husband usually wants to sample every new flavor) and quick. They get a lot of traffic at certain times and they do move the line. Best part, the gelato is very good and we have really enjoy several of the seasonal flavors. Lattes here are also good. Now they are serving hot chocolate and hot cider for the winter season and both are delish! read more

I love this place!! I always go here when I'm in mosaic. There is plenty of parking in parking garages nearby. It is right by the target in mosaic center. This place gets extremely busy especially at night. Lines can get long but the employees do a good job at moving the line quickly. It is super cute inside but there are only like 4 seats along the window area. Their gelato is delicious! I love gelato and that's what I always order here. My sister enjoys their coffee and teas that they offer. They have plenty of gelato options to choose from. They even have multiple varieties of sorbet! I always get the coffee and cookies with the banana fosters. Their dark chocolate and black and white cake batter is delicious too! Their gelato is so flavorful. It is expensive but it is so worth it. If you're in the mosaic center I definitely recommend giving this place a shot read more
