I have a visceral response to whenever someone suggests The Chocolate Bar. I have yet to have a good experience here. In the most recent visit, I ordered a Bourbon. I asked for it neat: literally bourbon in a glass with nothing else. After 15 minutes and as others from my table received their drinks, I had still not gotten my drink. The server asked if I really wanted that drink. Seriously.
25 minutes into the meal, I got it. Poor service aside, I still question the quality of the chocolate. To me, it's chalky, and bland - far from the velvety, rich, and vibrant chocolate that is in many other dessert and confectionaries in the area. Volume chocolate seems to be the name of the game here.
The Chocolate Bar just is simply not my thing.
