Share |


After six years of owning and operating a gelateria in Athens, Greece, brother and sister, Ilias and Venetia Iliopoulos, brought to New York City their passion for classic Italian gelato.

Fresco Gelateria, located in the heart of the East Village (138, 2nd Avenue, tel: 212.677.6320), offers a modern twist on the traditional slow churn process by combining quality ingredients and progressive flavors, such as goat cheese, rosewater, fig, watermelon etc.

The beach shack interior evokes a Greek island sensation while showcasing authentic benches made of wooden planks from the Coney Island boardwalk.

Fresco Gelateria opened on August 1st and serves fresh gelato, produced onsite along with daily baked pastries and an assortment of espresso based drinks.
