| - Heard the frozen hot chocolate hype so had to try one with half oreo and half mochaccino flavors. It tasted like chocolate ice milk with whip cream and a couple coffee bean candies and some crushed oreos on top ... which is fine.... but to me the atmosphere ruined the whole experience. The tables seemed too close together and small ... at least where we were seated (directly across from the kitchen). It also seemed a bit on the dirty side. There was such an overwhelming scent of ketchup in the air, it ruined my desire for anything chocolatey. Also, I wanted to wash my hands before eating and had to go outside of the restaurant, pass the patio area, and down some cavernous cement hallway to use a restroom. I was expecting an elegant, old-timer ice cream parlor feel, but this place is no where near that. I can't imagine buying the $1000 sundae here. There were a bunch of teens hanging around a cash register by the door which was confusing because the waiter who just left the check didn't specify if he was going to take the payment or if we were to pay at the cash register by the door. Sooo after waiting around awhile, we stood by the cash register while they asked us what our waiter looked like and then gave the payment to him. No eye contact, "thanks", "come back again" from the waiter...so we just walked out. Overall I felt like I was just at a fast food place, but with exorbitant prices, grumpy waiters, & pretty plates.
