They were good, but the outer truffle chocolate shell was not as melt in your mouth as I have had from other truffles. Tried the mezcal truffle and it had a hint of mezcal, just like the bailey & creme. The key lime was yummy and all the typical truffles were good. Disappointed they do not make a chile truffle. The other thing is they just pile them in a box, but no separation of the chocolates & no info provided on what the truffles are. I had to write them down. Still a nice gift.

They actually have a good looking food menu, but our focus was on the amazing chocolates.

This review is based on the mini workshop aimed at kids…read more I'm thinking the high average rating of this place is from the actual workshops that are not the mini one tailored to kids. The workshop advertises itself as a place to "make chocolate"; I guess I interpreted this a little too literally. The workshop consisted of literally pouring melted chocolate into molds and then adding some toppings like nuts or sprinkles to it. While this was very fun for my daughter who is a toddler, I felt ripped off for this experience. Furthermore, that you aren't even provided enough chocolate to complete your molds is a little disappointing in my opinion. Others in my group seemed to agree. The chocolate itself is very pricy, especially for the quality. It was more expensive than the pricier bars I've seen at Whole Foods. However, if you go to the botanical gardens, this chocolate is sold there but for about 25% more than what is in the shop. It also would have been nice to have had dark chocolate as an option for the experience. I think just having one type (milk chocolate) is an easy way for choco museum to improve. While our host was friendly and informative, it felt like a stretch to call this place a museum. I did learn stuff, but it seems you could only access the "museum" if you paid for a workshop.

The area itself is better than many areas in PV The store has lots of good fresh produce - veggies, fruits and herbs. Some of it were at a very good price when compared to Canada. Some berries from Mexico were expensive. They had lots of breads, tacos, fajitas made right on premises. Surprisingly there are lots of vegan milks - oat, soy and almond. Vegan Hotdogs, mock meats, sliced seitan-ham, pepperoni etc. Lots of Tofu, vegan Cheeze, ice creams, burgers as such as well. The store has some hats, beachware and some basic clothes and home stuff as well. Most staff don't speak English so it may be a difficult if you need help. All else service are good.

Tried the tasting menu with drink pairing and couldn't have been happier!…read moreTL;DR: Go for the full tasting menu with the drink pairings Amuse (4/5): a mushroom creation from the kitchen that was topped with a little bit of microgreens. Really surprised by the texture of the mushroom but could've used more of the greens and accent sauce Aguachile (4.5/5): delicious with varied textures - only complaint was that the avocados were a little brown and overripe Tomato salad (3.5/5): not too creative nor memorable but still yummy Octopus taco (4/.5/5): the octopus was perfectly crispy and flavors were well-balanced with the lime and pickled onions. Only knock is the tortilla was a little too oily for my liking Beef tenderloin (5/5) vs Tuna steak (4.5/5) - MVPs: Both of these main proteins were delicious and made even more so by the jalapeno gremolata. Usually I prefer fish but the beef was really perfectly cooked and more filling so slight nod to the beef Avo ice cream (4/5): Not to say it was bad but this dessert definitely looks prettier than it tastes. Although the avocado taste didn't come out in the ice cream, the crumble was a great addition to both texture and flavor. Not pictured (5/5): perfectly paired drinks :) Definitely a pricier meal than other local options but for a celebratory dinner, the value is 100% there! Service (5+/5): Staff was absolutely on their game and truly catered to everything we needed We'll absolutely be back Salud, Loma42!
