SOOOO FUN! I'm…read moreusually not a sweets girl, more savory but my friends found this place nearby and so we went right around opening time and before dinner. The decor was very fun and sexy. Wish we got a couch versus the normal boring chairs, but it was fine. The server was very friendly and knowledgeable. We ordered the boozy versions of course. The ice cream flavors were amazing! I honestly can't remember them all, but I think the zulu was my favorite of the night. The portions were PERFECT. Such a treat, they even had the world cup playing so bonus points for them. Highly recommended for a night out!

This place is so cutesy. Such a cool concept for a restaurant. Ordered the franchi$e (lemon pie…read moregelato, citrus cookie, lavender drizzle, violet sea salt, lemon zest, whipped cream) and the Zulu (coconut gelato, cherry drizzle, shaved dark chocolate, toasted coconut, black cherry). The sundaes themselves were amazing. I would say the Zulu is a little better but I am an avid coconut lover so I could be biased. However the espresso was terrible. So bitter. It kind of ruined the sundae I wish I didn't even pour it on. Really should work on that considering it's an affogato place.

If I were rating atmosphere alone- 3 stars would be generous…read more I am rating product and service because adding "ambiance", would do those who work here and their product a disservice. It takes a while to get your order because of low staffing. That said, when you get it of course it's beautiful and tastes great. Sitting just around the corner from Bourbon St. and the hustle and bustle energy that you walk thorough to get here- walking in was disappointing. It's a large open space with seating- and it's QUIET. No background music. It gives late night diner vibes and honestly, that's too bad. Adding music, upbeat- doesn't have to sound like a club but music and having more energy between staff and customers would greatly improve the experience and I believe, increase business. If there were some Fats Domino or 90s R&B flowing out of speakers and staff were smiling, upbeat, dancing etc. it would give more "legendary" experience verses midnight diner vibe. That alone made me not want to come back. Not everyone wants to drink alcohol so stopping to sit for a well made artistic milkshake is a great option. The energy brings down the vibe and experience. Match the ambiance, service and vibe to your menu and 5 stars all day.

TL;DR - Despite how popular and what a tourist stop this is, you still HAVE to grab your beignets…read moreand coffee here, at least once. You do that, you may be stopping more than once. Longer: So I was a little hesitant to go to CDM, because it's such the tourist stop and the first joint anyone mentions when they say "beignet". But this was our first stop, morning of first day. The beignets are piled in sugar, they are warm, crunchy and crisp on the outside and soft, warm and delicate inside. I gotta tell you, the texture is just a little different than Cafe Beignet, the Four Seasons, and even the other CDM in the park we tried a few days later. To me, this is the best one. Now, as a coffee person, their black coffee is strong, rich, and a good compliment to the real show - the beignets. But I did not pick up on nearly as much chicory in their chicory coffee as, say, Cafe Beignet's version. Also, I have to let you know the other location in the big park serves a non-chicory version (in addition to NOLA chicory) that is head and shoulders the best coffee we had in New Orleans. But this is the joint. As a bonus, it's colorful, has consistently great street musicians, and has lots of walkable sites as you struggle to waddle around after too many beignets. Gotta go!

This is a must-do if it is your first time in NOLA. But are the beignets tasty? Only if you like…read moresugary powder over fried dough! Don't be deterred if you see a long line - that's for takeout only. The tables are first come, first served. Portions are quite large so good to share a plate (3 beignets) between 2 ppl. Service can take a while if they happen to be taking a break (that was the case for us). And you are expected to pay when the orders are delivered (cash only). Make sure to tip extra because it is one tough job.

Review: Angelo Brocato is a classic stop if you're looking for great sweet treats. The Spumoni Ice Cream was incredibly good, and the Baked Alaska definitely didn't disappoint either--both are highly recommended. We also tried the Rum Custard; while it was perfectly fine, it just didn't quite live up to how great the other items were. On the upside, the prices are very reasonable for what you get, and the service was quick and efficient, meaning you won't have to wait long to get your sugar fix. Cons: Parking is highly limited and can be quite difficult to find around the shop. Thumbs up / Thumbs down: Thumbs up (Definitely would go back!)

The place is very simple inside, not a ton of tables but that adds to the simple feel. They did have a garbage bin that was overflowing which took away from the look. But the ladies behind the counter were pretty busy. I got a triple chocolate brownie and an affogato with the espresso ice cream. The affogato was a good serving size but it was a struggle to eat. The satisfying taste I associate with affogato wasn't there and the Gelato just wasn't smooth. The brownie was okay, I was expecting something more decadent. Serving: You order at the counter.
