La Athenian Gelato on Jones Road was such a great find. The service was awesome -- warm, friendly, and welcoming from the moment we walked in. I got the iced tiramisu coffee, and it was incredible. It literally tasted like drinking tiramisu -- soft, creamy, sweet, coffee-flavored clouds of tiramisu. Such a treat. The empanadas were also awesome: warm, flavorful, and the perfect savory bite to go with the coffee. Between the service, the coffee, and the food, this is definitely a place I'd come back to. read more

Came in on a rainy Tuesday afternoon so we got serviced pretty quickly. I was genuinely amazed with how much they had to offer from gelato to churros and muffins! The worker who attended to us was super helpful and allowed us to try a few different flavors before I settled on 1 scoop of the tiramisu and a churro. The churro was warmed to perfection and really balanced the coolness of the gelato. A very good experience read more

I tried a 2 scoop serving for $6.90 and my flavors were super Dulce de leches and Daniel's chocolate in a cup. Both flavors were rich in flavor and made with quality ingredients. I enjoyed my visit to La Argentina with its attractive interior, quality products and friendly staff. I am sure that all of their coffees and other drinks along with the sweets are very good tasting. read more

Today was our 1st visit and we will absolutely come back!!! We tried the ham & cheese and onion & cheese empanadas and they were delicious! We also tried ice cream and it was creamy and very flavorful! Definitely recommend the dulce de leche with chocolate. read more

Another hidden gem in the JV area. I had La Argentina bookmarked for a while, my husband and I had a date night and were headed home from dinner, we decided to stop by since it was on the way home. Greeted by a sweet young lady, she asked if we would like to sample any flavors to let her know. I sampled the tiramisu and the pistachio flavor which were both excellent. I ordered a small affogato with the pistachio gelato. The hot espresso was rich and bold; the pistachio ice cream was nutty and creamy. When the hot espresso melted the gelato, it had this gold-like toffee color and tasted delightful. La Argentina also served food and coffee, I checked the food menu and intrigued to try their empanada and quiche. The place is kept clean and is in tight niche. I cannot wait to come back to try different flavors of gelato, pistachio coffee and other food items! read more

Tasty pastries and creamy gelato. They usually have at least 20 fresh gelato flavors, including seasonal option like a Grinch flavor. A small is 2 scoops/$6. You can also order your favorite gelato as a base for a milkshake, specialty cup, or a brownie sundae. The perfect spot for something sweet before a show at the neighboring Good Friend Theater, or get some aggression out at Tex Axes. read more

Amazing coffee and delicious desserts! It was our first time here, and the guys behind the counter were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about their drinks and pastries! We really appreciated their advice. I got the pistachio latte, and my baby ordered the tiramisu latte. We customized both with coconut milk, and they were so good! We also tried the super dulce de leche gelato and it was so flavorful and absolutely delicious. Plenty of parking and the place was spotless inside. We'll definitely be back! Check out the photos below and see for yourself self. read more

Cute and clean little spot. Barista warmly greeted us, and because it was our first time here, took the time to go over our coffee-flavored options. I ended up getting the Tiramisu and my husband got the pistachio late. Mine was delicious! Have to come back to try the gelato! read more

Beef empanada, ice cream, affogato is so good with salt caramel ice cream. We are glad to find this place and love their empanada and ice cream selections. Although, I wish their empanada is a bit bigger. Service is quick fast and friendly. Store is clean, nice, and new. Overall, we cannot wait to try more ice cream flavors here. My favorite is their tiramisu, pistachios, and salted caramel. read more

I found myself on the other side the city today for business. But when I was done, I was very interested in trying new businesses around the area. One place that stood out before I drove home was La Argentina. I believe a friend briefly informed me of it in conversation plus of the items to try. Initially walking in, the store is bright and a nice layout that is very fitting of a coffee and gelato shop. I was greeted and observed the menu plus their offerings. Through a suggestion, I chosen the affogato and empanadas. The affogato typically has vanilla ice cream but was creative to instead go with the super dulce de leche. That was a great choice. The empanadas I chosen one beef and spinach with feta. They were hot, crispy and the filling was flavorful. Also having the chimichurri on the to add on was perfect. Overall this was a very pleasant experience at La Argentina. My friend from Chile actually recommended I visit. I was surprised I had a moment today and had a flashback of that conversation once I saw the name. The staff are very friendly and informative. I appreciated the recommendations when I was there but also were the choices my friend told me too. My only issue with La Argentina is location. I do not live close by the business and I would love this as a great neighborhood local cafe with Argentinian passion and flavor. I may not be within the area but if you are in Cypress on Jones Rd, you have to stop in. I have one word for it: excepcional read more

Came in with a coworker for a sweet treat. The cafe is very pretty, there's quite a bit of seating options as well. The barista was very helpful and friendly, she let us sample all the flavors we wanted. I ended up ordering the Strawberry Cream gelato and it was very good. My coworker had a caramel latte and she said it was good but slightly too sweet for her. They have a pretty large menu and some food options to try. I'll definitely be back to try more things! read more

this place is such a gem. coffee is consistently delicious--smooth, flavorful. the space itself is always spotless, with a bright and welcoming vibe the staff is incredibly friendly, helpful, and genuinely seems to enjoy being there there's always a rotating selection of creative flavors for gelato ( affogato is a must!! ) --highly recommend checking it out if you're in the area. read more

Friendly service, area looks well kept and clean. Our Server was super friendly and let us try multiple samples. We ended up trying the flavors they recommended which was the Dulce de leche. Absolutely fire. If you're familiar with those Mexican dulce de leche lollipops with that smiling cow you're in luck cause the taste was almost exactly like that but in gelato form! The Mexican Vanilla was good too. Overall this place was pretty good and have no complaints. If you're in the area looking for some gelato look no further. I'd imagine their coffee/espresso must be good here too, all the people seated had at least a cup or two so that's something I'll look forward to on my next visit. read more

The wife and I have been driving past this place for a couple of months waiting for it to open. We noticed the now open sign last week and decided to hit them up this morning. Walking in we noticed how bright and clean it is. Plenty of seating and space. We were greeted by a couple of friendly faces behind the counter who took our order and went to work on our drinks/food. I had the latte and my wife had the cappuccino. We also got two empanadas (beef and onion/cheese) to share. Everything was delicious. We look forward to coming back in the near future to try some of the dessert offerings. read more
