Service is terrible. Especially one bitter and obnoxious woman (ironically wearing a beanie with a smiley face) who could hardly be bothered to help customers. She cursed. She slammed things. This was a Willy Wonka on steroids twilight zone experience. read more

Delicious chocolates and candy, make excellent gifts! When you walk in, everything smells both delicious and clean. Your eyes immediately grow larger than your stomach because there's something (multiple things) to satisfy any and every sweet tooth: chocolate truffles, peanut butter chocolate, mint chocolate, licorice, sour candies, chocolate covered pretzels, Jordan almonds, themed goodies (holiday, sports, cars, new baby, etc.) The folks working there are so nice and offer excellent service; they'll gift wrap any box beautifully! I almost want to gate keep this spot as my go to gift shop, but I have to share as I want the business to do as spectacularly as possible read more

Top quality delicious beautiful wrapped chocolate at competitive prices! They even have these great sugar-free candies that rivaled their non-perils! Great for a gift for all occasions ! read more

I always love stopping by here whenever I'm in the neighborhood. I feel so nostalgic, truly like a kid in a candy store feel. Thankfully you can relive that part by coming here. Candy stores nowadays are hard to come by, especially ones that have real homemade treats. Here you can find nearly all your childhood favorites. The quality of chocolate is so good here! I love getting a small box of milk chocolate nonpareils. A true guilty pleasure. Every corner is filled with speciality chocolates. You even get candy that is allergy safe. There are just so many choices. Great for gifting and holiday treats. Service is always welcoming and helpful. read more

Great little chocolate shop in Roslyn! Delicious product and the perfect place to pick up sweet treat gifts for teachers, colleagues etc. we usually end up grabbing some non-chocolate treats too (strawberry licorice laces!!) Items are definitely on the pricier side, but it's high quality and it feels good to support a small business! read more

Chocolate is phenomenal with many choices for chocolates and candy as a gift or for yourself. No complaints. read more

Lazar's Chocolate - Neon sign for Lazar's Chocolate with a chef's hat illustration and the business name in bright blue. - Candy Stores Near Me - Greenvale, New York

I love peanut butter cups and theirs has to be the best I've ever had. Would recommend anything from them

Had to change a delivery date and time of delivery. The recipient was not going to be home at the time and date I designated. Sent an email and BOOM the answer was no problem we will send by messenger no additional charge. In this day the answer is so often NO but these people said YES. A breath of fresh air. Thank you Jeff ! read more

One of my favorite chocolatiers! Luscious. Well priced. Always fresh with seasonal specials

I was in the area and saw Lazar's and just had to get some chocolate. The store has a good selection of different hand made chocolates. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I ordered some orange peel and marzipan both dark chocolate covered. The candy was really good and was exceptional. Only problem was that the price is very high 32.50 a pound is outrageous in cost. Most of the places around my area charge anywhere from 18-22. Definitely worth a trip especially if cost is not a factor. read more

I have been buying chocolate from Lazar's for as long as I could remember. They have the best chocolate I've ever tasted and to add their consistency is on point. I love their chocolate covered gummy bears and chocolate pecans with caramel. Honestly, anything you get will be worth it. It can add up a little but it's worth it. read more

Happened to stop in on a whim ... more like forgetting Valentine's Day for hubby Pleasantly surprised by the array of yummy goodness they sell. It was CRAZYYYY busy that day, despite the fact I was in and out in less than 10 minutes. I would call that a successful trip! Plus the chocolate was SOOOO good. Will be back for sure read more

Amazing hand dipped chocolates and a variety of candies. Boxed chocolate gifts were really appreciated by friends. Very friendly service and care taken for Covid. read more

If you want choclate this is the real stuff. get this choclate and your life will CHANGE !

Walking into the place, it smelled of delicious fresh chocolate. They had so many choices and a lot of great gift items too. I ordered a couple of pieces. The lady behind the counter was very friendly. The chocolates with the nuts and caramel were amazing. Needless to say, half of what I ordered did not make it home, as I ate them in the car. They also have Kosher products, if you're looking for Kosher food or gifts. I will definitely return. read more

This is unquestionably some of the best chocolate I have ever had in my life. Lazar's has a wide assortment of fresh milk and dark chocolates sure to please any chocolate fan. I frequently visit to make selections for myself as well as for gifts for friends and business associates. The staff and the owner is always very kind, courteous and helpful. Highly recommended! read more

As soon as you walk I to this store your mouth will begin to water. It is clean, easy to see what is available and everyone who works here is so nice. I got custom chocolate bars with a laser printed color picture of my son for his 8th bday and they were a hit! The bar itself is thick and plentiful. I will definitely be back! read more

The pecan, walnut clusters with caramel, enrobed in dark/milk chocolate are a real treat. It is a mom-and-pop shop, or perhaps, more precisely, it is now a mom-and-pop-and-sons shop. There are other sweets- gummies, licorice, etc.- if you're looking for something besides chocolate. The service is always top notch. The issue is that the price is very high, as someone else wrote. The pecan clusters are $32.50/lb. This is quite possibly is a good thing, I won't buy too much at once and the waistline won't have to suffer the consequences. read more

Chocolate and candy are among the most important things in my life. Being honest, they are right up there with my family and friends in terms of how happy these things make me. Above both by far in terms of how comfortable I feel in their presence. Is that a problem? I don't know, I'm not a doctor. So, when I opened the door to Lazar's for the first time last week I was like young Charlie Bucket the first time he saw Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. I'd never been left alone in a chocolate store like this, so I needed everything. And everything I did get, without any other terrible fictitious brats to get in my way. I was maybe too unrestrained. I sort of longed for the child safety tether/leash thing my parents kept me on until age 10. But really, I don't miss that thing. The chocolate is unreal, just so homemade and fresh. The more traditional stuff is delicious, as are the more fun ones (think chocolate dipped oreos). Special shout out to their turtles and dark chocolate covered caramels...omagawd. Fortunately there are no oompa loompas at Lazar's behind the scenes, just a really cool family who is hand making all the delicious stuff that's there to eat. Unfortunately they didn't have the golden ticket program and I didn't win the store itself, but on the bright side, I walked out with a pretty sweet truckload of chocolate. Most of it I have devoured, but I shared a little bit at my office, and now even my coworkers like me. Thanks Lazar's!! read more

Terrible staff, terrible product. Fits the stereotype of entitled Roslyn. There are so many other business news selling chocolate with superior product and actually appreciate your business. Avoid this place. read more

This is the best chocolate store in the area! They have super rich and delicious chocolate and candy. They are a little expensive but it's worth it. Great for gifts or desserts for a party! Many choices of different chocolates and candies! read more

Went the day before Mother's Day and even though the store was crowded, the service was excellent. The employees noticed me right away and I keep myself busy eyeing all their chocolates before being helped. The employees were friendly and very helpful and their chocolate was fantastic! Great gift for any chocolate lover! read more

Went in on my lunch break and bought the chocolate covered popcorn with drizzles of white chocolate it was awesome! Talk about melting in your mouth. They have really cute gifts too! I'll be back soon! read more

Lazar's Chocolate is awesome. Seriously awesome. They have something for everyone here, even if you don't like chocolate they have other candy. My personal favs are the peanut butter cups (I'm a sucker for anything peanut butter) and the chocolate covered Oreos. Seriously their chocolate covered Oreos are the things dreams are made of, so good. My only complaint is that they close at 6pm. Since moving from the area it is almost impossible to go there during the week. read more

Ordered Fruit Slices (as in 'Boston Fruit Slices' candy). I'm giving one star for the shipping which was speedy. However, this 'mixed box' came almost entirely filled with 'lime' slices (least favorite of anyone I know) as well as jumbled up inside a flimsy box with a tiny piece of tape on one side that broke. Upon opening the box, the sugar flew everywhere and a fat crumpled piece of tissue was jammed into the corner (not on top or around the candy to protect it). Looks suspiciously repackaged. Never again!!!! read more

The chocolate is very the good the problem is they don't wrap or present the box to showcase the product. The seam is on the bottom denotes that the box was flipped and disturbed. For the price per pound the should learn how to wrap. The French do it without tape only ribbons u tube can show https://youtu.be/TRrC_jhyCvs read more

The fact that this place has sat right under my nose by where I work made me skeptical to try it. I figured it was just some stuffy candy shop with a dull artificial assortment. But wow, the chocolate really has a homemade touch to it, their caramels have earned them a rightful place near the top of my NY Chocolate crawl this summer. Prices are a little high, but less steep than the assortment at Whole Foods. The store is a little claustrophobic, but not too terrible. read more

Absolutely love this place. Not only do they have the most amazing chocolate, but everyone who works there is super helpful and nice. This is a family run business and you can feel that from the moment you walk into the store. Everyone is super friendly and warm. The homemade chocolate is delicious and they have something for everyone. Highly recommend stopping in whether you simply need a few chocolates because you had a bad day or a gift for any special occasion. read more

I absolutely LOVE this place. I have been coming here with my family for years and we all are in agreement that this is the best chocolatier on Long Island, probably in the entire state. The store is family-run and it has that great homey feel, where the staff is always welcoming and super helpful. I personally recommend the chocolate covered graham crackers (dark or milk chocolate, you can't go wrong) as well as anything with their house made caramel. This place is the best! read more

The best dark chocolate covered halvah ever! I must add the best dark chocolate covered coffee beans ever! I ordered this online from the website at www.lazarschocolates.com and the only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars was I believed the shipping charges were a bit excessive. But then again what I got was darn worth it. Rich dark chocolate taste tells me this is at least 40-50% cacao for their dark chocolate novelties. If you want a chocolate orgasm, this place is it. Mail order delivery is quick and package arrived in perfect condition. read more

The chocolates are incredibly good--especially the dark chocolate peanut butter cups. However, the prices are ridiculous.

Their chocolate is top tier and the absolute best. I don't bother to buy Godiva or the other brands in Roosevelt Field Mall and the like. Only recommendation for improvement is friendliness of customer service for minorities. There's a slight undertone of preferentialism for non minorities in the store in terms of degree of enthusiasm in greeting customers. Major improvement they made over the years is hiring a non white as a customer service employee behind the counter. She is Asian and I applaud Lazard's for recognizing the changing demographic of Great Neck in terms of the conspicuous increase of Asian Americans in the area. However, I would recommend that the business be aware of and make an effort in addition to adding race diverse personnel to its staff to be aware of customer sensitivities to how they greet customers - make non white customers feel like other customers who the store apparently knows on a first name basis so that non whites don't feel the slightest undertone of being treated like a second class citizen. Otherwise, their chocolate is the most delicious chocolate I've ever tasted and the people who I gift their chocolates to appreciate their chocolates as well as being an exquisite treat. Given that Godiva and other over-displayed brands in retail stores are way over priced, the price point for Lazard's chocolates are priced just below the rip off prices of their competitions but not by much and are still "somewhat" expensive. So in light of the above, I give Lazard's 4 stars. Great product but customer service could be friendlier and more enthusiastic to non whites and price is competitive but not by much. read more

Love the chocolate but yesterday as I was paying for a retirement gift, I could see a girl making up a cornucopia arrangement with her long hair loose and only one glove and she was using two hands. I have hair in food issues, really who doesn't, and this grossed me out. Hair confinement and gloves are part of the basic food prep 101 rule/law. Come on Lazar's. read more

As someone who has eaten a lot of chocolate, I can safely say the Lazar's is easily the best I've ever had. It all tastes like homemade chocolatey goodness. Their stores are welcoming and smell like heaven. All around, great experience. read more

Lazar's is a family owned business that goes above and beyond to uphold the quality of their service and products. As a chocolate lover you can bet that I am somewhat of a snob when it comes to specialty chocolate. I have bought various dark chocolate items (pretzels, espresso beans, plain pieces) and have ordered custom arrangements for special occasions and holidays. I have NEVER been disappointed with the service or the quality of goods I have received. I would HIGHLY recommend Lazar's for anyone near and far for your next occasion or sweet tooth craving. read more

I have lived in Great Neck for over 20 years and Lazar's chocolate is a convenient place to go for a nice gift. They have seasonally themed chocolates (for Hanukkah, for Xmas, for Easter or Passover) and also great birthday ideas. You can even bring them a picture and they print it on one of their chocolate bar wrappers, along with a personalized message. Also, they gift wrap your chocolate bars or chocolate gifts with pretty paper, appropriate for the occasion. My only complaint are the prices. Everything is very expensive so this is not the place to go if you are looking for an inexpensive gift. Other than that, service and quality are very good. read more

This chocolate store not only has chocolate that will make you sick, but the management is rude and unprofessional. When I came into the store, the owner was there with his newborn baby on the counter. When I asked him a question, he completely ignored me to tend to his baby. Then he changed the baby's diaper on the counter. This is disgusting and unsanitary. After finally getting the attention of a different worker, I got mixed chocolates. When the worker served my chocolate she used her bare hands to put the chocolate in the box, without even washing her hands or wearing gloves. One pound of chocolate is 32$, which is a complete ripoff for below average chocolate. There were chocolates sitting in boxes on the shelves that were clearly very old. There was a white film on the chocolates in the boxes from being so old. Between a rude, unsanitary owner, and overpriced, disgusting chocolate that made me sick, I would NEVER go back to this place and would never recommend it to anyone. Stick to Lindt or Godiva. read more

Great chocolate variety for all occasions...and my little kids love all their chocolate lollipops. Perfect place to go prior to hitting up starbucks in the same shopping center...kids eat their lollipops while daddy enjoys his coffee. read more

I stopped by last Saturday hoping to find chocolate with chilis. Spicy chocolate isn't one of their products, but the cashier encouraged me to try the almond bark. Delicious and chock full of almonds. Can't wait to stop by again! read more

I bought chocolate gift boxes and bars for Yom Kippur to bring to a friends house. It was a bit pricier than purchasing a cake or cookies. Needless to say, the chocolate was so fresh and delicious and it especially made a hit with the kids who enjoyed the solid milk chocolate bars. Having grown up in Great Neck and now live in Roslyn, I am thrilled to patronize this family owned and operated establishment. I also order my holiday gift baskets to send to clients. Oh and did I mention I also bought a box of chocolate to take home! So amazing! Worth every penny read more
