    Chocolate and raspberry cookie
    Devon M.

    TLDR: Solid chocolate shop with delicious hot chocolate offerings and cookies. My wife really wanted some hot chocolate last night and we happened to be near Georgetown. I found this place on Yelp and decided to bring her for a post dinner hot chocolate. I ordered the dark signature drinking chocolate and my wife ordered the milk chocolate signature drinking chocolate. I personally enjoy dark chocolate more, thus I found my drink to be tastier. My wife does not care much for dark chocolate so she enjoyed hers more. You may want some water after you finish your drink because it's very rich in flavor. Unfortunately they were out of the single source chocolate for the day. I assume that it must be delicious if it's sold out by the end of the day. We also ordered a chocolate walnut cookie, however I believe that she gave us the chocolate raspberry cookie by accident. I was not upset because that was my second choice anyway. The cookie had pockets of nothing but chocolate which, for a chocolate lover like myself, were pure heaven. The place is somewhat cozy feeling and has a decent amount of seating for a store in Georgetown. They care enough about the store to have closed off a bench that had stained upholstery. I appreciated that they cared about that because other stores would have just left it and allowed people to sit on it. The parking is typical Georgetown parking so be prepared for it to be a mess. We found parking on the side street right after the chocolate store.

    Glad we stopped in here on our way to our dinner destination. A cute spot with a large selection of drinks and cakes, but also lots of chocolates! The layered coffee cake was pretty good, very similar to tiramisu. My ginger lemon tea was a bit bland, but it's my fault for getting one of the non chocolate drinks. I didn't want to ruin my appetite for dinner though haha. Will definitely bring my mom back here as a hot chocolate lover. Staff was friendly and quick.

    Really enjoyed my stop here for a break from the summer heat. Nice cool inside and the back of the store has a nice seating area with a skylight and window into the back bakery. The coffee was made to order and the beans were sourced from Bolivia this month. Very cute and worth popping in for a hot chocolate or little chocolate mouse bon bon to go!

    Chocolate mousse cake

    Good place to stop for dessert or a quick pick me up in Georgetown. Came here for dessert after dinner and got the chocolate mousse cake which looked to be one of their top picks dessert wise. It was pretty good but nothing special. I had a higher expectation bc I recall enjoying the hot chocolate in their Boston location many years ago. Service was good though and the decor had the typical ambiance of a high end chocolatier. Seating in the front and back of the shop so didn't have any trouble finding a spot. I think I'll stick to the hot chocolate next time but it's a nice place to stop by to take a quick break in Georgetown.

    Matcha White Chocolate
    Cayla W.

    I was walking around the Georgetown area when I came across a sign for a match chocolate. Curious as to what that would taste like, I decided to step in and give it a shot. They had a matcha chocolate and a matcha chocolate with mango. I decided to just get the iced matcha with the white chocolate and it was amazing! One of the best drinks I've ever had. The white chocolate was perfectly creamy, while also tasting not too sweet. The matcha was thicker and very smooth. Even my husband who doesn't like matcha enjoyed the drink and ordered an iced milk chocolate drink that was also delicious. We would definitely come back in the future if we're in the area again.

    Amazing and rich drinking chocolate. If you're looking for hot chocolate, this might be a little too thick and rich compared to hot chocolate. However, paired with some cake and tea, it cancels out and is great! We enjoyed our time at this beautiful cafe. They sell a lot of cute chocolates as well. The cashier was very helpful in explaining all the different types of chocolates from different origins.

    "You didn't get hot chocolate," said my friend who suggested we meet at this Georgetown cafe with chocolate in its name. Rookie mistake. Despite the blunder, my chai tea was excellent- smooth and creamy. To make up for the loss, I got a chocolate croissant. The chocolate is warm, dark, and very rich. The space itself has many places to sit, but no WiFi intentionally. If you go, unplug and connect with a book or friend.

    Definitely not your mall shop, beautiful chocolates in a beautiful shop in the heart of Georgetown. I was craving a cookie so picked up two of the chocolate variety (well duh, I'm in a chocolate boutique). Both were delicious and very good. I'll need to return for that famous hit chocolate.

    Love the at atmosphere at LA Burdick. The place is has indoor seating and outdoors. It's never crowded but parking can be tricky. The pastries and drinks range from $7-$9 depending on what you get. Overall I love going to LA Burdick and definitely recommend after a heavy lunch. But beware from the cakes because they are VERY HEAVY.

One of…read morethe most interesting aspects of the restaurant is how you can't possibly put a finger on the origin of the fare. We asked our friendly waiter, and they stated the chef was from Spain, but they had schnitzel on the menu right next to lamb meatballs, and octopus. It was middle-eastern, Mediterranean, American, and anything else you could imagine. Also, amazingly, the menu was small, and, in my opinion, this is the mark of a great restaurant. Give me a menu where I want EVERYTHING on the menu. Make me regret filling up on the spectacular lamb shank and not have any room left for the 3 things I couldn't possibly try without returning. We had an amazing time. The bar is lively and, if you're dining in the "outside" portion, do not fear the cold. The patio is encapsulated in glass and the heat lamps are turbo-charged. It's difficult to stand out for amazing food in Dupont Circle, with the literally dozens of top-notch choices, and constant emergence of new possibilities. Go to Residents. You'll have zero regrets and vow to return.

I am not sure if it was HH but my food came out cold, like it was sitting for a while. It was more salty than flavorful. I can't comment on the drinks as I only had food. The atmosphere is very cute and I think it's a good place to meet up. I was informed that the spring menu is leaving soon and maybe I will try again when the summer menu drops. Labneh- was just ok Oxtail croquettes- salty and cold. Fish sliders- they weren't really memorable.

My partner and I were in the neighborhood and I was like, let's go here. It was a place that always seemed so fancy when I was barely making enough for rent. The restaurant is not flashy. It's quirky inside with antiques, statues and decorations scattered throughout. We ended up getting a seat on the patio since it was such a gorgeous night. The host was nice about my indecisiveness, and sat us at a table that was technically for 4, but it wasn't a busy night. The wine list wasn't the greatest. But the food was very tasty. The complimentary bread was just so so, a little dry. But the entrees were really good. We got the Caesar salad, risotto with shrimp and the bolognese sauce over rigatoni. Portions were fairly small for the price point. But we joked, it was good for portion control. I'm glad we finally made it to this spot. It is a very nice, neighborhood spot.

My hubby and I really enjoyed it! We arrived 20 mins early and the guy checking us in said that the tour may start early, but looking at his check in list, it seemed like it was bc almost everyone had arrived. There were 2 separate grps & only 20 ppl in ea grp. At 1st I was bummed that the 6 stops weren't places that were only choc, but it ended up being a great experience, getting a taste of other things with chocolate in it, like bread, cupcakes, caramels, and fudge, as well as chocolate bars and bon bons. We also enjoyed our guide, Linda. She was bubbly (but not sickingly), knowledgeable about the area and our stops, careful about getting us to our destination safely, and good about moving us along but not rushing us. Only complaint....1 of our stops was closed for the thanksgiving weekend. Great Food Tour should've either checked with each stop bc if the holiday, and the closed stop should've notified the tour company. We weren't made aware of the closure until near the end.
