    Another hidden gem in the JV area. I had La Argentina bookmarked for a while, my husband and I had a date night and were headed home from dinner, we decided to stop by since it was on the way home. Greeted by a sweet young lady, she asked if we would like to sample any flavors to let her know. I sampled the tiramisu and the pistachio flavor which were both excellent. I ordered a small affogato with the pistachio gelato. The hot espresso was rich and bold; the pistachio ice cream was nutty and creamy. When the hot espresso melted the gelato, it had this gold-like toffee color and tasted delightful. La Argentina also served food and coffee, I checked the food menu and intrigued to try their empanada and quiche. The place is kept clean and is in tight niche. I cannot wait to come back to try different flavors of gelato, pistachio coffee and other food items!

    Tasty pastries and creamy gelato. They usually have at least 20 fresh gelato flavors, including seasonal option like a Grinch flavor. A small is 2 scoops/$6. You can also order your favorite gelato as a base for a milkshake, specialty cup, or a brownie sundae. The perfect spot for something sweet before a show at the neighboring Good Friend Theater, or get some aggression out at Tex Axes.

    Amazing coffee and delicious desserts! It was our first time here, and the guys behind the counter were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about their drinks and pastries! We really appreciated their advice. I got the pistachio latte, and my baby ordered the tiramisu latte. We customized both with coconut milk, and they were so good! We also tried the super dulce de leche gelato and it was so flavorful and absolutely delicious. Plenty of parking and the place was spotless inside. We'll definitely be back! Check out the photos below and see for yourself self.

    Cute and clean little spot. Barista warmly greeted us, and because it was our first time here, took the time to go over our coffee-flavored options. I ended up getting the Tiramisu and my husband got the pistachio late. Mine was delicious! Have to come back to try the gelato!

    Beef empanada, ice cream, affogato is so good with salt caramel ice cream. We are glad to find this place and love their empanada and ice cream selections. Although, I wish their empanada is a bit bigger. Service is quick fast and friendly. Store is clean, nice, and new. Overall, we cannot wait to try more ice cream flavors here. My favorite is their tiramisu, pistachios, and salted caramel.

    Super clean and quaint gelato shop! Came there closer to closing time but they still had all flavors available. Service was quick too. I ordered the Belgian chocolate and a peanut butter flavor. The gelato was a nice consistency and tasted great.

    I found myself on the other side the city today for business. But when I was done, I was very interested in trying new businesses around the area. One place that stood out before I drove home was La Argentina. I believe a friend briefly informed me of it in conversation plus of the items to try. Initially walking in, the store is bright and a nice layout that is very fitting of a coffee and gelato shop. I was greeted and observed the menu plus their offerings. Through a suggestion, I chosen the affogato and empanadas. The affogato typically has vanilla ice cream but was creative to instead go with the super dulce de leche. That was a great choice. The empanadas I chosen one beef and spinach with feta. They were hot, crispy and the filling was flavorful. Also having the chimichurri on the to add on was perfect. Overall this was a very pleasant experience at La Argentina. My friend from Chile actually recommended I visit. I was surprised I had a moment today and had a flashback of that conversation once I saw the name. The staff are very friendly and informative. I appreciated the recommendations when I was there but also were the choices my friend told me too. My only issue with La Argentina is location. I do not live close by the business and I would love this as a great neighborhood local cafe with Argentinian passion and flavor. I may not be within the area but if you are in Cypress on Jones Rd, you have to stop in. I have one word for it: excepcional

    Great local spot for coffee and treats.. so many good options it was hard to decide savory or sweet. Went with the savory and tried the chicken and beef empanadas and was deliciously delighted. Will definitely be going back next time I am in the area.

    Strawberry Cream gelato
    Wendy H.

    Came in with a coworker for a sweet treat. The cafe is very pretty, there's quite a bit of seating options as well. The barista was very helpful and friendly, she let us sample all the flavors we wanted. I ended up ordering the Strawberry Cream gelato and it was very good. My coworker had a caramel latte and she said it was good but slightly too sweet for her. They have a pretty large menu and some food options to try. I'll definitely be back to try more things!

    Strawberry & Mango Gelato
    Bryan V.

    Needed a refreshing sweet treat after some athletic activity... I opted for the mango and strawberry flavors. Good sized scoops and both flavors didn't taste artificial. I think I preferred the mango over the strawberry!

    Latte
    Matt B.

    The wife and I have been driving past this place for a couple of months waiting for it to open. We noticed the now open sign last week and decided to hit them up this morning. Walking in we noticed how bright and clean it is. Plenty of seating and space. We were greeted by a couple of friendly faces behind the counter who took our order and went to work on our drinks/food. I had the latte and my wife had the cappuccino. We also got two empanadas (beef and onion/cheese) to share. Everything was delicious. We look forward to coming back in the near future to try some of the dessert offerings.

    Gelato, empanadas, coffee and more

    This family owned business is a must visit! The coffee is great, the empanadas are delicious. And the gelato is out of this world! The store is hidden a little off Jones in a strip center next door to Fred Astaire.

It was very exciting to try this ice cream spot and it did not disappoint. I was more creative than usual to try something new and it was perfect.

    Rocambolesc has great but pricey soft serve gelato…read more Trying to escape the Houston heat, I decided to drop by Rocambolesc because I had heard so many great things about their location in Spain. The chain is headed by a three Michelin star chef Jordi Roca who is believed by some to be one of the best pastry chefs in the world. While this is not necessarily pastry, I wanted to see what he would do with desserts. When you first step in, there is definitely a childlike whimsy to the decor of the place. They have plenty of seats inside as well as outside. I was hoping to see unique flavors, but I did like the few flavors they did sample. Beyond the soft serve gelato, they do have coffee and few prepackaged sweets to buy. When you order, you do get the soft serve gelato with unlimited toppings, which I wish I knew that so I could better select the combination. I did get mango passionfruit (4,5/5) which was super smooth and creamy with the right amount of tartness from the passionfruit and sweetness from mango. The fruits and nuts I got to add were a nice combination. My favorite was the nutella drizzle on top... smooth with little crunchy pieces. My only complaint was the price... While I did enjoy it, I am not sure it was worth the cost... The service was pretty friendly. Located in the Uptown Park plaza, there was parking readily available when I went on a weekday, but could vary depending on how the plaza gets. Overall, Rocambolesc offers great soft serve gelato with unlimited toppings but may be reserved for a special occassion.

    BEST gelato I've had in Houston!…read more There's a wide array of Asian-inspired flavors such as black sesame, taro, and Vietnamese coffee. They have lots of unique flavors I haven't seen anywhere else, such as goat cheese with sage oil and sea salt, and my personal favorite, SWEET CORN WITH RICOTTA! Be sure to sample it if it's in rotation, it tastes just like movie theater popcorn! The workers are very patient and accommodating, I probably asked for a sample of every flavor that was available! There's not too much seating, definitely more of a grab and go unless you have less than 6-7 people in your group! Note to the owner: If you see this, PLEASE put pandan, pandan coconut, or pandan matcha in rotation!

According to a sign in the store, the gelato is made in house, which is cool. There were lots of unique flavors and I should have taken a picture of the case, but alas I did not. They offered samples and Mark sampled the Lemon Pie (or a similar name) and loved it. He ordered two scoops - one lemon and one coffee. I tried both and WOW, the lemon was fantastic! I ordered one scoop of Tiramisu, which included alcohol. I almost passed on it because we don't drink, but I figured it couldn't be any stronger than 'near beer'. I'm glad I got the Tiramisu. It was delicious. I would never suspect there was alcohol in it. Because we would be heading home after, we decided to have a seat and eat it in the shop, which is very clean and cute. There are three two-seat tables in the shop (it's small), so be aware. There are a few tables out front. There's nothing not to like here. I want to try every flavor! It was absolutely delicious!
