They were good, but just a tad too sweet. The consistency was good though. There was ample seating in the two story parlor, but it was a bit warm as if the air conditioning was having trouble keeping up. There were also TV screens playing the local news so it made for some fascinating watching. This place also had restrooms, which was a welcome sight after walking Palermo SoHo all afternoon. Tudor was a solid 4 star experience, but less sugar would help the flavors come through a little more. The restaurant itself was pretty nice too- great atmosphere albeit a little warm.

That being the case, I wasn't very impressed by the classic dulce de leche flavor. It was rich and sweet, a little too soft, but mostly just didn't have enough dulce de leche smokiness. Some of their other flavors were excellent. Try the Tramontana - with streaks of dulce de leche in a vanilla base, and chocolate-covered biscuit balls the size of almonds scattered throughout. I rarely go for fruity flavors, but the Merengatta was also terrific, extremely creamy (could it be mascarpone-based?) and swirled with fresh, bright-tasting strawberry. The doorknob to the ground floor restroom had broken off, so I felt like I was going to fall to my death when going up the spiral staircase to the other restrooms. Shoddy construction aside, the space is very bright and clean. Worth a visit? It shouldn't be first on your helado tour - especially considering that they're noticeably more expensive than other heladerias. But if you come across a Persicco branch while walking the city (and you probably will), definitely go in and try some of their signature flavors.
