    Had a fabulous date night at Chocolate! We sat inside on the benches and it was a lovely romantic atmosphere. The cocktails were strong and intriguingly delicious. The chocolate mezcal martini was smoky and sweet, definitely recommend it! I got the Amarillo chicken mole and my partner got the chocolate orange bbq pork. Both had such a depth of flavor that can only come from low and slow cooking. The Amarillo mole was rich and deep and the chicken it was served with was cooked perfectly. I loved that every entree is served with a salad, I think it's perfect for summer. We were able to take our time eating and drinking and the staff came by just at the right time between drink and entrees. I believe the owner served us our cocktails and I have to say that he's an incredibly sweet man! I highly recommend paying them a visit!

    Everything was amazing! The food was amazing, and the hot chocolate and desert is also amazing!:) The outside patio is a vibe (especially if you love people watching), and the service was also amazing, our waitress was very attentive of our table, and very polite!:) I am definitely coming back here, especially for the chocolate!
