What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Chocolada Bakery & Cafe is praised for its exceptional desserts and authentic European pastries, creating a delightful sweet escape. Diners appreciate the charming ambiance and friendly service, particularly highlighting staff members like Antry. While the food, especially desserts and some savory dishes like salmon eggs benedict, receives high marks, some customers have experienced slow service or issues with food presentation.
"I had a delightful experience at this restaurant! The service was impressively fast, and the staff was attentive, making for a smooth dining experience. The ambiance stood out with a relaxing atmosphere complemented by good music, creating a welcoming vibe.
The sandwich I ordered was flavorful and fresh, with quality ingredients that stood out. However, I found the bread a bit on the smaller side, which made it hard for the sandwich to hold together properly. That aside, the presentation was excellent, and the accompanying sides were well-prepared and delicious.
Overall, this is a great spot for a quick yet satisfying meal. Just a slight tweak to the sandwich bread size would make the experience perfect!"

"It's very unfortunate I had such a negative experience at this restaurant. When I entered the restaurant I waited a while before a server came to my table. I ordered my food and immediately was not satisfied because my pita was wet ,soggy, and the egg was tasteless. It took forever for my server to check however I let him know my concerns right away. I told him I was ready for my check, he took my card and did not give a receipt with items marked. The manager came over with the plate of food and asked me to show him the problem. He said there was nothing wrong very rude inconsiderate and nasty no customer service. He could take 50 percent off and looked at me and said he is not doing anything. Threatened to call police for no reason. Not sure if this place welcomes people of color. It was very insulting and I had to call my bank for fraud. Shape on the guy with the glasses he is disgusting. I would never go back based on his actions. The soup was good"

Across the street is Chocolada, a very good Russian pastry shop. It's worth taking a walk around Main Street and Harrison Street and seeing if anything else catches your eye. Hollywood Vine is a nice wine bar on Harrison near Dixie Highway.

I love sitting on the Boulevard and having their tasty breakfast. Their Romanian pastries are sinfully good and the next-best-thing to actually being in Europe. And their live music in the evening is wonderful.
