Back in late November 2025, I was in Albuquerque, NM, fulfilling my loved ones' Christmas shopping…read morelist wishes. Before leaving town, I headed to the Eastside for Chocolate Cartel. The name certainly intrigued me, but their slogan did too: no fluff . no flair . the best cacao . I was in! While I didn't experience any "fluff," I thought that their chocolates actually did have some flair. They do have items for those bougie friends. Lol. I ordered a sample 6-pack truffle box ($19) that my daughters and I split together: Bee Pollen, Lavender Vanilla, Flowers of Italy, Green Chile & Salt, Pistachio in White, and Peppermint. I really should have gotten a bigger box after seeing how excited my girls were about this. Next time... I also enjoyed a discounted (due to it being broken) green chile and salt chocolate bar. They outsource other niceties: air fresheners, candles, and gelato. I wish I had stomach space for the gelato, but next time! Very nice, helpful service on the 26th. Overall, it is chocolate done maybe a bit simple yet exceedingly well.

I think the Cartel needs a more current review, so I am adding mine…read more I have been buying my specialty chocolate here since they opened the Albuquerque store in 2009. I have tried almost all the other local chocolatiers, and while they are all good, I keep coming back to the Cartel. Nuff said.

Do not purchase the gift cards! Took my kids to use some birthday gifts. They refused to honor them…read morein account of "changing to a new system 2 years ago." Staff claimed they could not check them, honor them, refund their value, or reload a new gift card, which struck me as strange. Cards have no language about an expiration. They needed an original receipt, which odd in that it wouldn't validate current value, and seems like an easy excuse. One would assume a better customer policy would be considered, versus it feeling like a cash scam. They have a lot of signs up about buying their new gift cards too. Generally not one to review a bad experience but the sunk $50 and interest they have in gift cards felt worth reporting....Otherwise, the boba is fine. Added some photos to save other holders a trip

After a vanilla latte and a caramel latte, all was right with the world. There was a bit of a wait for our drinks because several folks beat us in the door.
