| - When Chocolate Bar first went into this space, I was stoked. I spent most of my weekends downtown and this was the perfect place to grab a drink and a reasonably priced food. However, their downfall was always slow and poor table service.
I hadn't been here for dinner since those first few years of opening, so I thought I'd try it out. I was disappointed to find that the service was exactly the same - SLOWWWWW. We came here on a Monday night, the place was dead, and it took way too long to get a drink and an entree. On top of that, the server was not attentive and never came back to our table with the empty martini glasses to ask if we wanted another. We were fully prepared to get another, but by the time he asked, we were already asking for the check.
While the service is unfortunate, the food is okay. For the price you are paying, it's a pretty good deal. And the only redeeming element of this place is their extensive drink and dessert menu. I'm pretty sure there were over 25 types of martinis and over 10 types of spiked hot chocolate. And the martinis were pretty scrumptious. I didn't get dessert on this occasion, but I've got it enough times from here to know that I have never been disappointed by their sweet treats. If I were to ever come back here, it would only be for drinks/dessert.
