Momo Gelato Ipanema — Restaurant in Região Geográfica Imediata do Rio de Janeiro

Nice place for an expensive ice cream, but it is also tasty. They offer a few vegan options, and diet options, which is great. But they do not go the extra mile to offer cones that are vegan.

If you are looking for a relaxing and quiet place, or a place for a friends' catch up, it might not be the place for you.
