Alessa is a gelato and coffee place that offers much more than that. They have desserts, macarons,…read moresavory snacks and different drinks. The place is spacious with a modern, minimalist decor. We ordered coffees, a pistachio gelato and a raspberry ice cream that was molded in the shape of a rose, on top of a cake slice with chocolate sauce. My coffee had doce de leite and whip cream. It was delicious. I was a little disappointed with the gelato. They didn't taste of fresh raspberries and the pistachio had a strong pistachio essence taste. The service was friendly and the ambiance was pleasant.
