Rating: 3/10 Date Last Visited: 5/3/2026…read more We ordered the Triple Scoop ($8.25) with Mutabbaq, Blueberry Sour Cream, and Watermelon. The mutabbaq is good, but the fruit flavors were not good. Blueberry was alright but I couldn't taste the sour cream at all. Watermelon was artificial and bad too. They also don't let people sample, which is weird for an ice cream place. Overall, I would not recommend this place because paying $8+ to take a random chance on ice cream flavors is not worth it at all. At least let us sample first...

Unfortunately, they had a sign posted saying they weren't offering samples, which was a bit of a bummer since I wanted to try some of the more unusual flavors before deciding. I ended up getting a single cup with two flavors: Thai tea and Vietnamese coffee. Both were delicious and had strong, authentic flavor profiles without being overly sweet. Service was quick, and while there is some seating inside, it's fairly limited. Overall, I enjoyed my visit and would come back to try some of their other creative flavors. My only real complaint is the no-samples policy, especially with so many unique options on the menu.

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.

All good things! 1. Appearance of the Venue This spot has a really cool, old-school ice cream parlor vibe. It feels traditional, welcoming and exactly what you want a neighborhood ice cream shop. 2. Service The service here was great and very friendly. We were traveling in a large group, and the staff was able to accommodate all of us in a very timely manner. Which we really appreciated since we were on our way to a destination and had other family members meeting us at the metro station. Thanks to their quick service, we didn't keep anyone waiting. 3. The Ice Cream As a Wisconsinite, I am a bit of an ice cream and custard snob being from the dairy state! While it doesn't quite match up to Wisconsin's Custard (IYKYK), I will say it was good ice cream and definitely tasted better than some I've had in other states. This made the spontaneous stop worth it. They offer several fantastic flavors of hand dipped ice cream. I ordered the salted caramel in a cake cone. The ice cream was really good. It was rich and flavorful. Not too salty either. It is wonderful to find a great local spot while traveling as I always love supporting small businesses. Here you go asking me again, will I return? Yes! The ice cream was really good plus the service was fast and friendly.

But this time, we purposely skipped dessert at the restaurant and had ice cream instead. They have a ton of really cool flavors and you can try them before you pick. I tried the mint chip and the darkest chocolate. The darkest chocolate was so good that I ended up with two scoops of it - that's how much I wanted. It's hard to find a solid, not too sweet chocolate, so this was perfect. I had it in a waffle cone, which was so fresh and so crispy.

As always, the quality of both the ice cream and service were excellent. There wasn't as much space outside for sitting and enjoying, but the interior was comfortable and welcoming. Since there are no Jeni's near where I live (yet), I have more reasons to visit local stores that carry their pints.

The ice cream is made with A2 dairy so it didn't hurt my stomach as a lactose intolerant girlie. The shop is super cute, especially outside, and makes for a good photo op. They have a good variety of flavors and allow you to sample before committing to a scoop! I got a small with the Americanaki Cookie and the Mint Chip Mou. If you eat it wanting a super creamy/rich ice cream, then you will be disappointed because these scoops are super light and almost reminiscent of Italian shaved ice. It is creamy but not in a heavy way. I would definitely recommend Yala if you are looking for something sweet after a heavy meal!

During my visit, I sampled Ego Thelo Strawberry (a refreshing Mediterranean strawberry sorbet), Aegean Sun (Greek yogurt ice cream with sun-ripened apricot jam), and Mornings with Thea (creamy Greek yogurt ice cream swirled with traditional orange preserves). Each flavor was incredibly smooth and flavorful, but Mornings with Thea completely won me over. The tangy Greek yogurt paired perfectly with the sweet, citrusy orange preserves, creating a unique and refreshing flavor that kept me coming back for more. I loved it so much that I ordered a small two-scoop cup and even took home a pint to enjoy later. The only downside wasn't the shop itself--it was the unpleasant odor outside while we were enjoying our ice cream on the benches. It took away from what would have otherwise been a perfect outdoor experience, but thankfully the quality of the ice cream more than made up for it. If you're looking for something different from traditional ice cream, Yala's Greek yogurt creations are absolutely worth trying. I can't wait to come back and sample even more flavors!
