"I saw the decades-old Argentinian gelato shop Cones thank customers for 25 years in a note on the door as it closed, teasing a possible comeback with “We’ll have some good news soon. New place, same cones,” and remembering it for unusual flavors like cinnamon with honey, sweet potato with brie, corn, dulce de leche, and sweet potato gelato." - Luke Fortney
"A New York Post article from 1999 hangs in the window at Cones in the West Village, and we have a feeling nothing has changed about this place since then. The 32 different flavors might feel overwhelming, but think of it as a dying art that you can’t take for granted, like hailing a yellow taxi cab, or long menus at diners. You can’t really go wrong, but we like the mint chocolate chip, and once had a pleasant corn flavor. The homemade hot fudge is a very good idea, but we probably didn’t actually have to tell you that." - Carina Finn Koeppicus, Bryan Kim, Kenny Yang, Willa Moore, Sonal Shah
"A New York Post article from 1999 hangs in the window at Cones in the West Village, and we have a feeling nothing has changed about this place since then. We mean this in the best possible way. There’s fluorescent lighting, red and pink walls, and large posters hung up that say things like “Ice Cream Attitude”. The 32 different flavors might feel overwhelming, but think of it as a dying art that you can’t take for granted, like hailing a yellow taxi cab, or long menus at diners. You can’t really go wrong, but we like the mint chocolate chip, and once had a pleasant corn flavor. You should add the homemade hot fudge to whatever you get, but we probably didn’t have to tell you that." - Willa Moore
"Anyone who has visited Buenos Aires knows that Argentine has its own distinct gelato flavors, and this type of particularly creamy product has been on display in Greenwich Village since 1998 at Cones. Though most of the flavors will be familiar — berry, dairy, nut, chocolate, and citrus — there are many South American flavors not to be found other places, such as corn, mate, sweet potato-brie, and dulce de leche." - Melissa McCart, Robert Sietsema
