The various flavors, such as Peanut Butter with Bacon, Salted Caramel, and Triple Chocolate, were just fabulous. They really complimented the beers on tap, too. I will have to visit the store or find where I can get my hands on more Oh Sheila! in the near future.

I contacted Oh Sheila, and she not only delivered it on short notice, she delivered it to our home herself. My husband enjoyed the assorted box for days to come, groaning in bliss with each bite. Oh Sheia! I will never forget your great customer service and how happy your chocolate creations made my husband on his birthday. Thank you!!

The prices are a little steep, but you're paying for quality. They are stocked to the gills with Holiday goodies. So many different options to pick from.

She loves dark chocolate so we came to check it out. Lots of chocolates obviously. Tons to pick from. Def the place to come if you know a chocolate lover and need a gift. We picked few individual ones and can't wait to try them!

Enjoyed the free chocolate tour and then some holiday shopping! The woman who helped me select my…read moreindividual chocolate candies was very friendly and knowledgeable, helping my daughter calculate the cost of each of the items. We went with Euro dark, birthday cake, salted caramel, champagne, raspberry, and root beer! We booked the free tour for our group ahead of time, and I would recommend that, especially at busier times of the year. Parking was easy, and there were plenty of signs offering direction. Our tour lasted approximately 20-30 minutes and our guide was friendly and patient with our excited group of kids who needed an occasional reminder to stay back from the chain dividing the tour group area from the production floor. The kids were fascinated, and it was cool to watch the chocolatiers in action, slicing caramel slabs into squares to be turned into hundreds and hundreds of candies. The sample chocolates at the end of the tour were delicious! We got to choose between chocolate peppermint bars and caramel snowmen. Next time, I'd like to make a stop in the cafe and see what that's about.

The entrance was a bit confusing. The cafe entrance is closer as you turn on the street, and the…read moreactual store and tour facility is the next building down. I parked a bit farther not thinking they were regular spots and assumed they were handicapped spots. The cafe building seems multiple decades newer, and the shop and tour building seems to need updates, it doesn't read luxury or expensive chocolates. Got a few bags of the oops chocolate and a 1/2 pound of the chocolate covered strawberries with my mom. We liked all of it, but the deal finder in me really loved the oops chocolates. We didn't do the tour due to time, I'm curious what it's all about. I do know they give you some sort of free chocolate at the end.

Not your average breakfast! That is what I loved about Telva…read more My friend had the Kunefe - what a surprise! it is a mixture of cheeses with shredded phyllo and baklava syrup - savory and sweet all together. We shared a Chocolate Povitica - similar to a babka and really good I had the Cilbir - very similar to Shakhuka but with garlic yogurt - REALLY GOOD!! We started by seating outside because it was unseasonally nice in the Summer of St Louis, but we moved inside due to rain and both are eclectic (but there is an odd surging of electricity inside) We received our food quickly and we were asked how we were doing and if the food was ok at least twice and very kind servers. PS dont laugh at the pictures...I forgot to take pictures before we dove in

Beautiful space with lots of greenery, great music, and friendly, attentive staff!…read more The food was good but not too memorable. I had the Sloppy Mustafa Tost and it felt like something was missing. The biggest letdown was the "runny" egg, which wasn't runny at all, very surprising for a breakfast spot. The ordering process also takes away from the experience. Waiting in a long line to order and pay, then carrying your own water to the table, doesn't make for a relaxing brunch. My friend also wasn't told they had run out of the somun for the Cilbir until the food arrived and it had already been substituted. Overall, I loved the ambiance, but the food and service details didn't quite live up to the hype.

I hate to leave a bad review, but it was the weirdest interaction.. or lack there of, I guess??…read more The website and the hours on the door say it closes at 10pm. I got there around 8:45pm. As I was walking to the door, I see a man cleaning the tables. He walks toward the door as I'm walking up to it. We're literally standing face to face with the door in between us. I smile, he is stone faced. I go to open the door as he walks away. The door is locked. I try a few more times, thinking maybe it's me. I look around at the hours again, but next to it is a "we're open" sign. I try maybe 3-4 times more before I give up. I walk to the window and he's sitting at a table toward the back, looking at me. We just look at each other, then he looks at his computer. I turn toward my car, then turn back around and he's still looking at me! I sat in my car, confused. He never looked back up from his computer, so I left. Highly disappointed.

This was my second time coming to this place…read more The staff is so inviting and friendly and are willing to answer any and every question you have. They made a fresh pot of coffee and even went the extra mile to go get ice as we came in later in the evening and they had run out. I did tell them they didn't need to, but he insisted which I thought was outstanding. This quaint little café is so charming inside. It allows people to gather eat a sweet treat and have general conversation conversations where you can actually hear one another. They do have outside seating too. The chocolate cake was soft and as a non-cake lover I found this very delicious. Definitely worthy of sharing. I ordered a quiche to go. I had mentioned they didn't have the spinach feta pastry that I had before. The gentleman stated we have some in the back, I'm happy to get you one. So I ordered that too. And although this was only our second time coming, the fact that they'll make a fresh pot of coffee in my opinion is key to a great café. I will keep this in my rotation of places to go.

In Missouri and thought I wouldn't find anything good to ever eat, until we stumbled across this…read morebakery that ended up being an award winning pastery chef and James beard award winner. Got 2 sandwiches for lunch: the smoked pork and the roast beef sandwhich. Still can't decided which one was better because both were DELISH. The focaccia on the smoked pork was sooo soft and fluffy and light, combination of coleslaw with the pork was perfect. I thought there was no way the roast beef could be as good yet once again proven wrong. The challah was perfect and whatever cheese they had with the roast beef sandwhich was perfect. Pro tip: you can ask for the sandwiches to be heated up! As for the desserts: I really wanted a cake sweet treat but my eyes were bigger than my belly could handle. Got the maple pull, chocolate almond croissant , and ham and gruyere croissant. Which I cannot wait to eat tomorrow for breakfast!! Place is busy but moves fast. Side chairs and table to sit along the window.

We stopped by on a whim once I realized how relatively close it was and not in the city. The parking lot is very small and shared with other businesses so depending on when you arrive, it can be full. We were greeted by the team! There is only window seating (maybe 6 chairs total) so majority ordered to go The pastry case was a gold mine of treats and various cakes! While my husband and I thought about our order, they got drinks started for us: an iced tea and a vanilla latte. We ended up with: smoked pork sandwich, prosciutto sandwich, caia (vanilla bean mousse cake), a chocolate croissant, a cheesy focaccia roll. The breads for the sandwiches were great and soft after being warmed up! My toddler loved the caia and refused to share with us. I liked their chocolate croissant and it would have been ideal with a hot cup of coffee. I highly recommend for literally all occasions!
