Massa Cafe Italiano

Smack-dab in this North Avenue strip dominated by Italian-American eateries, you’ll find this casual café. Pizza, panzerotti, sandwiches and salads are available, but we stop by for a scoop of gelato. At least two dozen flavors are offered daily (a combo of mainstays and rotating options), and each is made in-house from a base that’s imported from Italy. Flavors such as hazelnut and pistachio are solid picks, but branch out and you may find a delicious new favorite.
