The espresso is THE BEST!!

Visited today and I was truly impressed. Two employees just getting after it. The lady doing the gelato was running it and handling two registers while another employee making sandwiches and subs. Hard working employees give there's two a raise. The gelato was also Good. I would give this place 2 thumbs up.

Cute old fashioned italian shop and gelato - gelato was delicious and service was prompt.
