Vesta Chocolate is one of those places that reminds you how thoughtful food can be…read more We shared a half brownie and a peppermint hot chocolate, and both felt intentional rather than indulgent for indulgence's sake. The brownie was rich without being heavy, balanced, and clearly made with care. But the hot chocolate is where Vesta really shines. The staff is genuinely knowledgeable about the makeup of the drink, not just the menu language. You can choose your preferred milk, and they explain how each option changes the experience. That kind of attentiveness matters. It tells you they know what they're serving and why. And the homemade marshmallows? Soft, pillowy, and quietly perfect. Not an afterthought. A finishing touch that elevates the whole cup. Vesta feels curated without being precious. Warm without being chaotic. A place where craft, knowledge, and comfort meet in a way that feels grounded and human. I'll absolutely be back.

Wanted to get some coffee and sweets with two other people and came across this pastry shop…read more There were a few seating which was available by what looked like a "hallway"(?) but we didnt really mind as there was no heavy foot traffic. their chocolate (opera) cake was really good and their lemon Madeleine too! brought more for home along with their canneles. The raspberry pistachio croissant was pretty but im just not a raspberry fan in general and found the filling to be quite tarty. for drinks, I got their Mocha latte and enjoyed that as well. If I ever stop by again im definitely getting those madeleines one more time!

Yes, mam. i highly suggest you get the espresso milkshake. its not too thick, you do not have to wait for it to melt. the shake itself is creamy. they blend this with 100% italian espresso, not just milk. So if you're looking for that kick, look no further. keep in mind they have other seasonal flavors of the gelato to blend in for the shake. you can also buy tubs of the gelato in the freezer off to the side I also grabbed a red velvet cookie, i didnt hate this, but felt it was a little dry. I will gladly come back for the house made cannolli and another espresso milkshake.

If you're a fan of The Sopranos, visiting Holsten's Ice Cream, Chocolate & Restaurant is a must! This iconic New Jersey landmark is where HBO filmed the unforgettable final scene of The Sopranos, making it a bucket-list destination for fans of the series. The famous booth and nostalgic atmosphere instantly transport you back to that legendary ending that still has people debating what happened to Tony Soprano. While we think we know he was whacked was Meadow the only survivor? Beyond the television history, Holsten's is a wonderful no frills old-fashioned diner with delicious food, homemade ice cream, homemade chocolate and friendly service. I ordered the cheeseburger with the onion rings. My Cheeseburger was juicy, flavorful, well seasoned and perfectly cooked medium well. The onion rings were made of thick cut sweet onions also perfectly cooked in a well seasoned light batter. A must try! The restaurant is clean, welcoming, and full of charm. Whether you're stopping by for a meal, dessert, or simply to experience a piece of television history, it's well worth the visit. Don't forget to order the onion rings and the Orange Fizz they're famous for a reason! A perfect stop for both food lovers and The Sopranos fans alike. 5/5 Location 5/5 customer service 5/5 Prices 5/5 Food Taste and Quality 5/5 Bucket list item ( actually I grew up in the area and I ate there often) .

And it's still there, but now we have one over in Caldwell. Much easier for me to get to, and so now that I have been here all these centuries later, I present you with my unbiased review as follows. Pro: Wide selection. They show some of each up front, and I saw with my order that they've made many more than that on the shelves behind the counter so that they keep their display intact. Con: Very little room to see the displays. When I came in, I was immediately in line. They then snaked us back to the back of the room so I could see everything else, finding the chocolate I was directed to purchase. Pro: Delicious. Long-standing tradition of homemade. Con: Not easy to find this tiny storefront among all the others, overshadowed by Stop & Shop and more. Pro: Nice friendly staff up front and taking phone calls. The person ahead of me was known to the desk lady, who apparently knew her mom very well as a frequent visitor. Pro: The fact that there are many frequent visitors, and a line that kept replenishing at 4:00 on a workday. Pro: My mother loves Bromilow, and it's about to be Mother's Day. The pros outweigh the cons. We have a winner.
