Sara's Review of La Argentina Gelato & Coffee

I thought this spot was just alright. What a hype. Location wise, it is not the easiest to spot, tucked away in a corner of an area that is typically not frequented. In regards to customer service? It was hard to navigate the conversation due to language barriers. I passionately had a few questions in mind.. but was not able to clearly articulate them due to said obstacle. Bit of a small spot with few gelato flavors to pick from.. The gelato was just okay... even worse... the alfajores was downright awful. Hard in taste.. and the dulce de leche interior was hard as well. When I imagine alfajores.. it is tender, melt in your mouth, with the dulce de leche being of a very sweet and creamy interior. This one felt short of how the cookie should crumble.. or rather it just disintegrated into dust. Shortbread cookies made with love are awesome.. this one wasn't. Perhaps it was the time of day we visited.. towards mid-evening. I'll have to revisit in the future certainly.. as I'm a huge fan of frozen treats.. especially gelato. I also understand that South American gelato is different than Italian style gelato.. as I've tried it before through my travels overseas. I want to give their gelato one more try next time around and perhaps pair it with their coffee which seems to get mad reviews. I would stay away from the cookies though and focus on their frozen treats. Here's hoping our next encounter will be a sweeter one.
