This may be the best location for a frozen yogurt place. Right across the street from the zoo, it's the perfect end to your day. There's nothing too special about this place that sets it apart from any of the others. There are sorbets and some interesting flavors, the toppings bar is limited, but it does the job. read more

Stopped by FroZenYo after a hot day at the zoo. Perfect location for a quick sweet treat. They had standard flavors ranging from both milk based and fruity options. The topping selection was standard but I did really enjoy the chocolate peanut butter crispy topping, reminded me of a nutter butter in the best way! Added a great crunch to the bowl. The price is definitely on the higher side compared to other froyo places. Also, they didn't offer complimentary tap water which is needed when having a sweet treat like this, only bottled water. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Seating was mostly available outside with very limited seating inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was very hot outside so we only stayed for a couple mins and took it to go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, a standard froyo spot read more

Nice treat on a warmer day! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small shop with typical froyo self service model.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I appreciated the variety of nondairy options and went with a combo of strawberry lemonade and mango sorbets both of which were really good. I prob did a little too much with the two flavors and all the tops since it got pricey pretty quick but it was worth it after walking around all afternoon. read more

Nice selection of froyo flavors and ice cream. We bribed my son to walk around the zoo, instead of being carried, with ice cream. This was right outside the zoo so we stopped by here before going home. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There are only two seats inside that have two seats each, not useful for a family of four. Luckily the seats outside were shaded so we grabbed one table (there are four).[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were a steady stream of people getting froyo before and after us, but there were always enough seats. Enough people grab it to go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's 85 cents per oz, which is on the more expensive side, but being there's no other options so close to the zoo they can definitely charge that price. I got tart and added mochi, chocolate chips and cookie dough. There aren't a ton of toppings, but they have all the standards. My kids got orange ice cream in sugar cones. The scoops were huge so they were happy. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's no restroom, luckily we had water to pour on napkins to wash their sticky hands.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If you're going to the zoo, I'd recommend coming here instead of getting the zoo ice cream. read more

After I was introduced to this place, I could not stop coming back. It's very nostalgic to childhood and probably the only froyo place I know that's open. They have a lot of different flavors and a wide assortment of toppings. My highlights are the syrupy walnuts, popping boba, and reeses. The price is also reasonable, it's by weight but it's what I'd expect going to an ice cream place. read more

On the pricier end, their frozen yogurt does taste great with plenty of options and toppings. There are only 2 tables of seating inside, but they do have games of Jenga one can play! Outside, there are four tables to dine at. In terms of flavors, they have plenty of options with non-dairy sorbets as well (Watermelon and Mango) and one of the coolest topping bars with an angled mirror showing all the toppings from above. Its proximity to the Smithsonian Zoo is quite helpful, especially on warm summer days. read more

Popped in yesterday afternoon after a quick visit to the zoo. Wasn't familiar with the area and my small family and I were famished. We saw a sign at this location advertising fries, chicken wings and tenders so we ordered. Hot food at a frozen yogurt spot? We ordered wing and chicken tender platters. There was a small issue internally which caused a delay in our food but the food was quite tasty, well cooked and they provided decent servings. The place was clean and the counter person was courteous. It was a very nice surprise to find some quick hot food at a frozen yogurt spot! The froyo was quite enticing but we didn't have time-we were in a rush and had. Along drive ahead of us. Definitely stop by this spot if you are in the Area. Nice variety and nice seating out front! read more

The taste of the frozen yogurts, and selection of toppings was great. I had chocolate and cake batter, and I'd get both again in a heartbeat. The issue was the machines... you'd pull the lever and everything came flying out. Thank goodness the kind soul behind the counter understood and let me scoop out some of what I didn't want. That's sad because it was wasteful, but I didn't want 15 dollars worth of frozen yogurt! I'd give it five stars if the machines were fixed! read more

Frozen yogurt places often have these self serve machines which you pull the lever and fill your cone or cup. I like getting things myself. Sometimes this isn't always a good thing. A lot of times yogurt machines are broken. They also seem to be expensive for a portion. I thought it would be nice to come in on a hot day to get a cup. It has a very good location. We had just been walking around the zoo. Everything there is a ripoff so we waited until we got somewhere else. This was not any better and in fact was more expensive than many things at the zoo. I had a cup of the watermelon sorbet. This can be topped with many things like cookies, fruit, and whatever. It's about $7 for a large cup. They weigh it after you put everything on, so be careful and watch yourself. Simply sprinkling on a few things makes it much heavier. The stuff isn't even that good and nothing special. Be careful how much you fill a cone or cup. It seems like a ripoff. Toppings are mostly dried up. read more

Well... this place is convenient for a quick yogurt ice cream if you are around DC Zoo (also I think there are only few Frozen Yo left around the city). However, they mixed the ice cream business and the concept of Frozen Yo with French Fries!!! I believe they are only looking to diversify their revenues, the bad thing is that both business are very incompatible... When you go inside looking for yogurt ice cream and something fresh there is a very strong oil/frying smell... terrible! I don't think they will be able to sustain both business together going forward, very unfortunate. read more

I've tried other DDL lattes from other coffee shops around the city and this one is by far the best. It's good hot and iced. The seasonal strawberry matcha is also very good. This place is great for the seasonal drinks and gelato flavors using local ingredients. My absolute favorite seasonal flavor is the Blackberries and Cream gelato. I ate it so much last summer that I could see the color of the gelato get darker as the season progressed and as the berries reached their peak. I got a few hand packed pints to keep in the freezer but they didn't last long. The mascarpone & berries is my favorite classic flavor. I've been to every Dolcezza location in DC and my favorite is the DuPont location. The baristas are chill and somehow their drinks taste better than the other locations. Not sure how that's possible but I notice a difference. I think it has something to do with how the drink order is entered at the register. At another location, I noticed my DDL latte was entered as a latte with DDL syrup and it was noticeably off. Not sweet at all. When I asked the barista he said there was no DDL button but at DuPont the drink is perfect every time. I'm not usually focused on nitpicking but if I'm paying $10 for a coffee, I expect the taste to be consistent regardless of location. Back to DuPont. This location has decent seating but definitely isn't appropriate for longer study sessions during busy times. There's a large communal table and bar style seating along the front window that is great for people watching (or construction watching). It's conveniently located, about a 10 minute walk away from the DuPont metro. Is Dolcezza expensive? Yes. Will I continue to use my discretionary income on $10 coffee and gelato. Yes, because it makes me happy and it's an act of self care.

Honestly just getting the basic gelato in a cone with or without a chocolate or a macaron is better. The location has two floors, and you won't hear the honking so much upstairs.

Stop scrolling, you won't regret choosing this spot for tonight's dessert…read more I've lightened up on my sweet treats so when I do delights, I try to make it count Dolci Gelati had such wonderful flavors-we tried a few flavors before opting for the marscapone fig, Amarena cherry and toasted almond. All were perfectly creamy and not overly sweet. Chefs kiss! I appreciated that they offer mini scoops for $3 in a cup with a cone- just the way I like it! Their gelato display was also beautiful. They have an array of non-dairy sorbets on hand as well with fun flavors like lemon lavender. I'm a sucker for hard to find and clever flavor combinations. The cherry on top? Friendly staff and clean space. Highly recommend!

The pistachio sundae was amazing. I hope they bring that one back! I love that they use locally sourced ingredients and have a portion of their menu focused on seasonal ingredients. It's also cool that they collaborate with local restaurants to come up with very unique items. The H street location is conveniently located between Whole Foods and Solid State Bookstore. I usually stop here after grabbing groceries. They share a space with The Apollo apartment building so you can sit in the apartment's lobby, which is beautifully decorated, or sit inside Dolcezza itself. The ceiling in this place is stunning. The staff will gladly give you samples of the gelato if you're stumped on what to order.

The Red Velvet Cake gelato is my favorite and I left with a pint of it. They have March specials going on: Banana Foster, Soft Serve Matcha, White Rabbit Sundae, & Grapefruit Campari.

I was able to observe the baristas making the drinks and the quality seemed inconsistent among individuals. Milk was poured heavily. I ordered the coquito and it was practically milk instead of the expected Puerto Rican eggnog. The coffee was brewed weakly, so I was dissatisfied by the lack of fragrance and caffeine. It needed more warm spices and a nutty base to justify being one of the most expensive beverages on the menu. I would not visit Dolcezza again, even though it was convenient. I would rather walk nearby for a decent cup of joe.

Cold brew with pumpkin spice ----- delicious!

My friend who used to live in Baltimore told me her and her mom loved Pitango. She is gluten-free and pretty much all of their gelatos are gluten free. They also had a large selection of dairy-free options too. It's a tiny shop, but there are what feels like over 20 flavors to pick from. The person who was working there was extremely kind and let us try whatever wanted. I tried the dark chocolate and bacio flavors and ended up choosing those as my gelato for the evening. The smallest cup was a regular and came out to able $9 with tip. There was a lot of seating options outside. I'd recommend this spot for a sweet treat.

This place is kind of at the end of the Wharf and was not as crowded as the bigger, non-local chain…read moredesserts nearby. They had a larger than expected non-dairy selection so I ended up with two such flavors in addition to one more conventional gelato flavor. All of them, including and almond nougat creation that was new to me, a bitter chocolate sorbetto, and a kiwi flavor with little fruit pieces, delivered amply on flavor. The price was more eye-watering than mouthwatering. I suppose it's both a premium location and premium quality, but that was a small cup for over $10. As an occasional indulgence, I do recommend it, and given that it's a Baltimore brand whose original location is near the water, there's something appropriate about it being on the wharf.

We tried again. Stood inside and were completely ignored. It wasn't busy. I'm not sure who they cater to but, it's not me. I'd never try to go here or to their restaurant next door. Absolutely rude.
