Steve G.

I've been devouring Critchley's thin mints since we used to sell them as a Little League fundraiser 50 years ago! To this day, I still think their chocolate is among the best I've had anywhere around the world. Yes, around the world. The chocolate is smooth and just the right level of sweetness; totally addictive. And, the mint in the Mint Oritani's (thin mints) is also perfectly balanced. I've had other similar looking thin mints, and the mint is always overpowering. Any time I'm back in NJ, I make it a point to stop by and stock up, and if I'm gone too long I have it shipped to me in MN. The current owners, Steve and Leslie, couldn't be nicer too. Reminds me that it's time to place an order ;-)

A MESSAGE FROM STEVE THE OWNER!

********UPDATE; THE OWNER HAS MADE FAKE ACCOUNTS ON YELP AND GOOGLE REVIEWS. This can be confirmed by verifying the email used on their "business" website & by the LOVELY message he left me. Steve, if you believe that your behavior was composed, then I am genuinely concerned for the safety of your wife & children for when you're upset. Your behavior was disgusting and NJ has no room for bullies - especially over something like this. Shoppers, keep this in mind before you give them your business. You're better off going to Edible Arrangements or Mindy's Munchies.

Venchi Chocolate and Gelato Paramus, NJ - Chocoviar Mango Gelato in a small cup

Amazing service and gelato!! wow!! From the very start, they made us feel welcomed. beautiful…read morestore, too.

I'm a sucker for a sweet treat, so I was excited to grab a cup of gelato at Venchi. If you're not…read morefamiliar with this Italian brand, it has more than a century and a half of history! They started out as a gourmet chocolatier in 1878, and later expanded into artisanal gelato in 2007. The store is located on the first floor of Garden State Plaza near the food court. You can't miss it because the interior is absolutely STUNNING from top to bottom. It looks like a designer boutique, decorated with ice cream cones, walls of chocolate products, and floral wallpaper. Even the packaging is beautiful and feels high-end. Luxurious, darling~ I stopped by on a Friday night and was greeted warmly. From the colorful walls of chocolate bars to the stainless steel counter lined with a rainbow of gelato flavors, I didn't know where to look first! I made a beeline for the gelato. It's freshly made in small batches every day. They offer classic Italian flavors like tiramisu, pistachio, and hazelnut, along with fruity sorbets and more chocolate heavy options. The staff generously let me sample as many as I wanted to. Most are also gluten-free and vegan. You choose a cup or cone, pick your size, and even upgrade to a gourmet version if you want to add a chocolate spread + toppings. Prices are steeeeeeeeep, so I just chose a small cup of the Chocoviar Mango ($7.95)-- a mix of mango and milk chocolate with crunchy white chocolate pearls. Many ingredients are imported from Italy, and they pride themselves on using natural ingredients without artificial flavors or coloring. So naturally, the gelato was delicious! I loved the silky, dense texture. The mango was tangy and refreshing. My favorite part was the milk chocolate bar topping-it had that creamy, melt-in-your-mouth sweetness that cut through the tartness of the mango. Don't forget to browse their selection of gourmet chocolates, gift boxes, and hazelnut spreads. There's no doubt I'll be back to satisfy my sweet tooth! Yes, it's pricey, but that first spoonful made it feel worth it! I should've gotten another scoop. LOL.
