    We had a reservation and were seated early. They even accommodated our silly request to sit in one of the cute domes that we saw when we checked in. Our server was very friendly, but the food runners were not as friendly and not very helpful. We placed a drink and appetizer (the Ferris wheel appetizer) order immediately, and a short time later ordered our meals. A little bit later we received our meals, never having received the appetizer. We asked the food runners and they told us the kitchen was “working on it” and walked away before I could say anything. I would have said nevermind to the appetizer at the point. We weren’t in any rush so I wouldn’t have minded waiting for the appetizer, but not with our food getting cold on the table. We ended up wasting almost the entire appetizer because we had already eaten. The food was good, the drinks were very good, and our server was very sweet and took a nice picture for us at the end of our meal. The restaurant is very cute.

    Beautiful restaurant and wonderful wait staff. Super disappointed that they removed the cocoa filet mignon from the menu.
    The Chocolatier Restaurant + BarResponded 5 days ago
    Thank you for your feedback. We’re so sorry to hear about your disappointment with the removal of the cocoa filet mignon, it was definitely a fan favorite. We completely understand how frustrating it must have been to travel all that way for it. We’ll be sure to pass along your request to bring it back to the menu. We appreciate your patience and hope to have the filet on the menu again soon for you to enjoy. We’re glad to hear the service and ambiance were enjoyable, and we hope you’ll consider giving us another chance. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts.

    I really wanted to dislike this restaurant because it took 45 minutes to get my beer (apparently, our waitress forgot to put it in and they had to switch the keg). However, the food was quite delicious. Whipped feta was a great appetizer and paired well with my long awaited pint of Troegg’s Grand Cacao. My daughter said her chicken pasta al fredo was tasty. I had the Hershey Berger and it was great. Cooked to medium, well seasoned with thick-cut bacon. Can’t complain about the food. Waitress was off but she was apologetic and kind.

    This was our second time and much improved from 2 years ago. Staff were incredible from trying to seat us with many other families to attentive waitresses. There was enough variety of food to accommodate adults and children and was tasty as well. Visit with Santa was not rushed and atmospheric.

    Great family place to eat, good food, great ambience, wonderful service. However, I would not recommend their milkshakes for 18.00, They are overloaded with slice of pie, full sived cookie , huge chunk of brownie,etc. unnecessary additions to a milkshake. Maybe some whipped cream and a few sprinkles and then you can charge 10.00 to make it more bearable for parents to pay the bill. All that extra sweet stuff was wasted as it was not what we ordered and surely ran up the bill. Just an FYI!!! be kind to families and you will get a larger tip!
    The Chocolatier Restaurant + BarResponded 5 days ago
    Thank you for the thoughtful feedback! We're so glad you enjoyed the food and service, and we’ll definitely take your suggestions on the milkshakes into consideration. We want to make sure families have a great experience without feeling overwhelmed by the price. We appreciate your honesty and hope to welcome you back soon for another fantastic visit!

    High hopes dashed by dreadful food, poor service, and general apathy. It’s an extremely overpriced burger joint. Ask for medium, you’ll get charred burger. The brioche bun on our burgers were so stale and hard they were like a rock. I called the waiter over and tapped the fork on the bun. It sounded like tapping on a plastic bucket. The waiter took my entire plate and returned with a semi-stale brioche bun. Hard around the edges and outer part of the bun flaking off at the slightest touch. Nothing like a Millers Ale House burger. Truly substandard and young waiters with no clue about adding value to the customers dining experience. Ambiance good, food worse than cheap cafeteria food. Overpriced. Desert very good. Love the chocolate.
