Pricey, but Excellent Chocolate with bad customer services 1/19/2010

I LOVE their chocolate, but every time I go I prepare myself for bad customer services. I don't know it's because they are famous, so they don't care or they just couldn't find some decent sales? Oh well, I guess if I want to continue enjoy their chocolate, I will just have to put up with that. Pros: Super delicious chocolate Cons: Bad customer services more

It's as good as you'd expect it to be. Really quality chocolates for pretty standard prices, and a nice location; stop for Grimaldi's first! more

Unpretentious gourmet chocolate 7/31/2008

Jacques Torres is equally comfortable creating 5-star desserts and covering cornflakes with chocolate -- what's not to like? The shop itself is cute and cozy, and you can look through a window at the chocolates being manufactured next door. My ""wicked"" spicy hot chocolate had a few lumps, but nothing a brisk stir couldn't fix. I just hope they don't have to post calorie counts. more

Wonderful chocolate and vibe 4/22/2008

This place is Heaven in Brooklyn. The exquisite chocolates are also great to look at. And when all you want is a piece of chocolate or a crosisant with coffee, this place is hard to beat. Then, the cobblestone streets and the old brick of the warehouse across the street really add to the overall ""ambience"" of the site. I love to bring my kids for an afternoon treat after shopping at Pomme, Half Pint or Powerhouse Books.\r \r Try the simple chocolate-covered nuts. These make great take-home treats to offer to visitors or are great just to snack on. Pros: Everything Cons: Who could find a con with this chocolate! Oh! Long lines sometimes! more

Better than Godiva 11/2/2006

I like this place even the cobble street it happens to be on. Hot chocolate is a must try but so are all the varieties of chocolate. My mom loves it! The kids love it! Chocoholics rejoice! more

Jacques knows his chocolate 6/4/2006

I think I'm the only person who hates the hot chocolate here - so thick, it's like a meal in itself. I go for the unique truffle selection. My favorite is the ""love bug"" - white chocolate with a key lime center, and also the ""Chai tea."" They have about 30 different ones to choose from, in white, dark, & milk chocolate, and new flavors are introduced often. Other yummy treats include chocolate-covered cheerios. And across the street is a wonderful French bakery not to be missed called Almondine. more

Great spot..but not for traditional chocolatiers 5/3/2006

I went looking for vanilla creme chocolates...or coconut cream which were both a no go---they have a non-traditional selection of chocolates, which can be great for non-traditional chocolate lovers...but if you are looking for your favs, this is not the place to go...on the brigth side I did have one of the best chocolate crossaints I have ever tasted..... more

Sublime 8/4/2004

It's pricey, but wonderful. Chocolates the size of a silver dollar, and the thickness of three for nearly a dollar apiece, but so, so good. Worth the occasional indulgence. The person behind the counter was also very helpful in describing some of the weirder creations to us in advance. more

Absolutely Wonderful 2/12/2004

This place has the best chocolate I have ever tasted! I have bought these chocolates for family and friends and they love them. They sell boxes of assorted chocolates you choose. My favorite is one called wicked. They also have the wicked hot chocolate that is the best! The crossiants are great, chocolate dipped fruits nuts, cornflake--they do it all. I tell all my friends about this place becuase it's definitely worth the trip. Its on Water Street behind Grimaldis in Bklyn, so you can you there for L/D and Jacque Torres for dessert! Pros: Nice decor, Quality product, Good Service. more
