They are thoughtfully decorated and there are so many options to choose from. I was getting some for a gift for my father birthday and chose a medium variety pack that has 14 spaces where I was able to select each one I wanted . The person attending made suggestions and then wrapped it up nicely in a gift bag. I'm excited to gift this to my dad. I will update my review when I know how they taste. Up to this point 5 stars.

We tried a few but my favorite was the butterscotch. I also got some gelato. The employee said the salted caramel coconut flavor was her favorite so that's what I went with. It was good, different, but not my favorite. Hopefully I'll be back soon to try some other flavors!

Update 2/2026:, Le…read moreChocolat du Bouchard is still, after all these years, one of my favorite places to indulge in something wonderful. What began in my mind as a temple of decadent desserts has evolved beautifully. The Bistro now serves inspired French fare, Croque Monsieur and Madame, baked French onion soup, sweet and savory crêpes, and other thoughtfully prepared dishes. It's no longer just about chocolate, though let's be honest... the chocolate still reigns supreme. This time I visited with a friend and her absolutely adorable 2.5-year-old -- a tiny human with a very serious devotion to chocolate. Watching her delight in each bite might have been sweeter than the desserts themselves. Elegant, cozy, timeless. A place that manages to feel both special and familiar at once. And yes, still a little dangerous for anyone who claims they'll "just have one bite."

My daughter lives in Las Vegas. I live in Sacramento. On a recent trip to Naperville, my daughter…read moreand her family came here for lunch. She called me as she was leaving the restaurant that afternoon to share with me what a wonderful experience they had and that she wanted very much to bring me here. The European konditerei ambiance she declared was exceptional. She described how the owner brought samples of her chocolates to their table and when my daughter exclaimed how much her Mom (me) would love this, the owner sent some truffles with my daughter to share with me! My daughter described how delicious the French onion soup was. So we made a plan to fly in to Chicago today and meet up at the airport and with so much excitement we were headed to Le Chocolat du Bouchard. We were late for our reservation but called and were told they would hold the table which they did. We sat down, the owner was sitting at the table in front of us. My daughter saw her and told me that was the owner who then saw us looking at her and asked "do I know you?" My daughter was so excited and said "yes, I'm from Las Vegas, my family and I were here a few months ago and you were so attentive to our table. I couldn't wait to bring my Mom and here she is." The owner made it clear she had no memory of my daughter or that experience at all. She showed no interest in meeting me. She then picked her phone up and definitely let us know that conversation was finished. She never looked at us again or thanked my daughter for coming back in. I ordered a beet salad which was lettuce, beets, and mandarin segments completely dry. No dressing at all. After we asked for salad dressing, we began noticing 4 or 5 of the employees pointing at our table and snickering which continued throughout our dinner and even as we got up to leave. The server brought our bill never asking if we would like dessert (it is a patisserie after all). When we questioned him, he really offered no explanation. Just that we could order it now if we wanted. To be treated in such an unwelcome manner in a business establishment was entirely disturbing. My daughter was mind blown! She literally raved about this place for 2 months and when we left, her disappointment was painful. We are just thoroughly confused as to why. If they were frustrated that we were late, why not be honest and let us know they were unable to hold the table.? Instead, we spent $240.00 for an extremely uncomfortable evening! My first ever yelp review, btw!!! As a Mom, to watch my grown daughter's enthusiasm turn to shock and disbelief was unbelievably disheartening! I cannot imagine any excuse for the owner and her personnel that could even begin to explain tonight's experience!

You can't go wrong with whatever you decide to get here. I've tried almost everything here over the years. And, I can honestly say that it's all delicious! I will definitely be back to continue trying everything here. Everything looked divine! I will definitely be back! Everything is a true work of art here! And, everyone is super friendly.

We ordered the iced pistachio latte as the refreshing conclusion to the chocolate feast. A delectable treat in Geneva.

It was a pleasurable experience, perfect on a rainy Saturday spring day. The service was fantastic!! Starting with reservations, which was a "comedy of errors" to the moment we left. Esther's friendliness and attention to our comfort and taste elevated our experience. We started with the light, flakier tasty warm classic scones. Then we moved to the delicious, satisfying, variety of finger sandwiches - the traditional cucumber was perfectly refreshing to clean the palate before the sweet phase of our meal. In the mix there was a spinach-cheese tart which it would have been tastier served warm. I selected a violet dark tea which was lighter than I expected, perhaps it would have been stronger if would have let if brew a little longer. The assortments of pastries/sweets were delectable and mouth-watering - macaron, sponge cake, coconut chocolate drizzled macaroons, custard, and a truffle. All inviting, succulent, and scrumptious. I will be back!

With a small space, they've done a creative and beautiful job. This being their grand opening (second day open), people are already visiting and tasting mouth watering pastries. Cathy Bouchard, the owner, and Jody Michalski, the General Manager, greeted me with a smile and enthusiasm. The women behind the counter were helpful as they learned more about each pastry. What a delight! I was privy to a short education on the new drink that exploded with a tropical fruit taste and a hint of chocolate. You've got to try that and when they begin selling it, buy it, you won't be disappointed. They have a delectable mini key lime pie that is seasonal and to die for. Go and check it out, you'll love it. Buy some sweet pastries and let them know Keith sent you. Don't be shy, you never know what you'll get.

Now that I got that out of the way, the owner is so so friendly. We had a Turkish coffee while deciding on which Turkish delights we would have. All of them were really good and I can't wait to go back for more. I thought the box would last us a week but it was barely half full by the time we made it home! It's such a pleasant experience and there is so much to learn if you haven't had any of these treats or the coffee (and how it's made) that it is worth the visit just for this, and the interaction with the owner, of course!
