    Allison, our waitress, was a delight! She was fun and happy. Everyone should be like Allison with customer service. Everyone made sure my food allergy was addressed. Everyone was friendly. Super experience. Thank you!

    Sadly the Chocolatier just is not good. It’s way overpriced for the area and quality of food. The noise level was high and the ambience is generic. We had the chicken nachos which was ok at best. The chicken was dry and it could use more toppings. I ordered the risotto and it was mush. My husband had the classic burger and that actually was ok. Our server however, was friendly and attentive.

    The food is mediocre at best. Basically an expensive bar food experience with too many “heavy” items. At least half of the menu items are fried. It appeared that the beer, wine and cocktail selection and preparation was the focus. Not the food. Our server was great! Noise level was high as it is deemed a family place.

    A fun family restaurant! A bit pricy, but it is a vacation restaurant, so no surprises there.

    The meal was very good, the room was charming, but took almost an hour to receive the meals, even though we gave the entire group order weeks in advance. It would be very helpful as a motorcoach tour group to have better group menu options and dairy free options for our guests with food allergies. Also, would be nice to have updated information on Google Maps for how to enter as a motorcoach, or even to have been given some instructions via email as a group, since the entrance and parking lot system is so exhaustive. Hope to try again.

    Hi AmyJo, Thank you for your detailed feedback. We sincerely apologize for the issues you faced with the meal timing, menu changes, seating, and parking. We understand the challenges of coordinating a large group and regret that we didn’t meet your expectations. Your feedback is invaluable, and we’ll work on improving group menu options, ensuring better communication for dietary needs, and providing clearer parking instructions for motorcoach groups. We also apologize for the delays in receiving your meals and the seating arrangement. We hope you’ll give us another chance to improve your experience next time.

    Our wait for food and drink was very long. It was very noisy as all tables around us were waiting for food For the price we paid I did not feel that the service and atmosphere aligned
    The Chocolatier Restaurant + BarResponded 6 days ago

We take your comments seriously and will work to improve both the service speed and the overall atmosphere to make sure every guest has a more enjoyable experience. We truly appreciate your honest review and hope you’ll consider giving us another opportunity to provide a better dining experience in the future.
