    Cranberry muffin and strawberry hot tea...yummy
    Eleni O.

    The cranberry muffin is great. Soft and very tasteful. I'm having the strawberry hot tea. I've never had it before and it's delicious.

    What a cute addition to downtown Westport! Stopped by here with a friend on a hot summer day. We each got a large gelato - I picked three flavors: almond, Nutella and gianduja. The gelato was delicious and I'm definitely glad I opted for the large size. Staff here was friendly and the location is great. LOVE the little private alcoves where you can sit with your friends/family etc. There's plenty of seating in front as well. They've also got a great selection of pastries, cookies, tea and coffee to take home. Can't wait to go back!

    La Fenice is a cute gelato shop is downtown Westport. I don't usually have gelato, it just isn't as common around here as ice cream. However, I have tried some of the dreamiest gelato when I traveled to Venice, Italy a few years ago. I know what true gelato tastes like. I've also had some excellent gelato here in Connecticut. Unfortunately, I have to say I was extremely disappointed with the gelato from La Fenice, and it could be just the particular flavor I got that was flawed. I got the hazelnut flavor, it sounded like a great classic choice. They also have about a dozen delicious sounding other flavors. I got the smallest size. The cups are tiny and they're $5.00. I thought that's a bit steep for how little the cups are, this size is usually considered kids size in most ice cream shops. But they call it one scoop here. I suppose it's fine since this is gelato. This gelato was very odd, it had a grainy, sandy texture to it, not like chocolate chips or something that's typically in gelato, like something wasn't done when processing the ingredients and mixing them. There was also a weird flowery under taste to it. I don't get it. My friend got the pistachio flavor, hers was much better, but not the best pistachio I've ever tasted. This little shop also offers a variety of pastries, smoothies and coffee. They have the most adorable little intimate booths for two with beautiful images of parts of Italy. I've only tried the gelato, I can't comment on their other offerings. I'm sorry to say this was the worst gelato I've ever had. If it tasted as it should, had no weird under taste, or texture, I'd still question the $5.00 price tag for such a tiny amount. Maybe if I visit in the future I'll try one of their pastries and a coffee. For now, I just can't recommend La Fenice.

    On a random afternoon I stopped at La Fenice for gelato. Mango and lemon was nice-medium was $6. Not cheap. Lots on the menu which I missed- sweet and savory crepes! Nice time!

    This place had amazing gelato! The service was also really good and it was a cute little shop. I would definitely go back and I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a wide variety of fresh gelato. There was also only only flavor containing gluten, which I really appreciated that the staff knew instantly what I meant when I asked if any flavors were gluten free.

    Service was awful, took forever, the crepe had so little cheese i thought they forgot to add it. I ended up sending it back.

Savory crepes are offered Breton style using buckwheat flour. These galettes bretonnes are light and crispy with an earthly toasted flavor, the ideal counterpoint to the fillings that accompany them such as hearty European cheeses, charcuterie, tangy pickles or spicy arugula leaves. Among them, galettes Choupette (fig, arugula, prosciutto, goat cheese), Ractiflette (potato, watercress, Raclette cheese, charcuterie) and Complète Jambon (Gruyère, organic egg, country ham) are super delish and totally worth a try. Sweet crepes, made with whole wheat flour, are the soft fluffy crepes we are more familiar with around here. Personal favorites include the Traditionnelle (butter, sugar), Hugette (pear, dark chocolate, almonds) and the Amour et jalousie (Nutella, banana, strawberry). Lots of beverage options here! The coffee is great, as are their ciders and their freshly squeezed (orange or grapefruit) juices.

It would not have been such an inconvenience if it wasn't raining and there was no place to stand for 2 hours. I hopped back on the subway as my only option as I was hungry, cold and wet. After taking the wrong direction to Marcy Ave and getting back on track decided to come back. Got here and asked for the NY Cheesecake crepe with Carmel instead of chocolate and he said he has to CHARGE me for Carmel instead of chocolate. Huh! I explained that I took the subway twice $3 each way because when I got here, the food delivery truck was outside delivering boxes and the sign said opening a 1 pm. Mind you I already said it was my second time here today when I walked in. Really!?! Terrible customer service!!!!!! I'm from out of town but yikes!

Being only a few blocks away and rated fairly high, Creperie popped up on my search so I knew I had to stop by on one of my evening walks back from the office. Although a rather tiny little shop, Creperies manages to still have some very limited seating right outside. As well as counter space inside the shop if you don't mind standing and crowding with other people waiting for their orders. I ordered the Strawberry and Banana crepe as it seemed to be a popular option. Size-wise, this crepe is pretty hefty and filling. Comes in an aluminum container so it's much less messy to grab and go. Although sweet, I felt the crepe itself was just ok. Nothing about it really stood out nor made it particularly memorable. They offer both sweet and savory crepes here if you want to make a meal out of it.

Good break to take a short stroll outside while waiting. The store was full with many people waiting, mostly students. One Crêpe can be shared by two medium built people after dinner because it's very filling. The chocolate nut party was a party in my mouth- gelato was good, mouse truffles were great, nuts were sufficient and the Crêpe itself very fresh. The syrup on the gelato was avoidable. Pocky sticks are fun too. Definitely going to be back here to try the savory versions, and I wish they open a store near Hartford.
