| - Went here for a bachelorette party last weekend. It was not what I was expecting. First, I didn't realize it was a chain until we walked in the restaurant. But once inside, it was so obviously a chain. Everything about it felt forced. The drinks are *extremely* pricey ($10), considering that they don't seem to have any alcohol in them. Also, you have to pay extra ($13) for a regular martini instead of the sugar water that passes for their martini menu, which is nuts. I don't think a $10 drink is that ridiculous, but not for Cleveland, and not for Chocolate Bar. The food was just sandwiches, salads, and flatbreads. There were some entrees that were a bit more, but even the filet minion was $16. What! Clearly, this is not high quality food. It's a weird dichotomy, considering the ridiculous price for the drinks, and how cheap the food is. The restaurant was crowded, the floors were slippery, the service was not great. I guess I just thought Chocolate Bar would be a nice restaurant, so when I walked into Applebee's with martinis I was surprised. There are so many better restaurants in the same area, I couldn't possibly recommend this to anyone.
