    Dark Chocolate Mousse
    Victoria K.

    I am so impressed by this little dessert shop; it was SO cute. Everything from the packaging to the mousse itself to the little details (gold-colored straw, tray to serve mousse to stay, and spoon) made this an overall amazing experience. I came in with a friend to sit down and catch up. We were offered samples of the dark chocolate and matcha mousses to try-- I ended up getting the dark chocolate and she got the matcha. Honestly, you cannot go wrong; both were so delicious. The dark chocolate was rich like pudding with air bubbles to make it mousse. The matcha was like white chocolate with a subtle matcha flavor to elevate it. My friend described it as 'refreshing' and honestly she would be right. There was something so light about it-- if you like matcha, I definitely recommend this one. We also got the passion iced tea ($5), which tasted a lot like the starbucks iced passion tango tea. Big fan. What can I say. The cons are that the mousses are on the more expensive side ($5 for the smallest size) and there is no AC in the store so if you're looking for refuge from the heat... you'll be out of luck. This is truly just nitpicking though-- it's a place for indulging, so if you're going to come here... just indulge. Do it. Let yourself have what you deserve.

    3oz Chocolate Mousse Cup

    For the a very special treat, run don't walk to Mojo Desserts! Their 70% dark chocolate mousse is divine. It's rich and decadent and yet airy. The cup is small and I thought it was too small but the flavor is intense so I think the size is just right for a little treat. Sure, I could have eaten more of this mousse but I was satisfied with the cup. I look forward to coming back to try the different flavors they offer.

    If you enjoy chocolate give this spot a try. If you enjoy mouse then definitely give it a try. If you enjoy chocolate mousse it's a must try if in the area. Cute, bright, and clean speciality cafe which features some terrific mousse desserts. A few different sizes and flavors to choose from. Coffee and some pastries here too. Service was pleasant enough. Some seating by the front door area. A bit pricey for the portion size, but the quality is very good. It's in kind of a weird spot in East Harlem off a side street. Not the greatest location as there is really no foot traffic here so I hope they make it in the long run.

    I sat outside and had a Fresh Almond Croissant! $3.81 with tax. Worth every penny!!!

    Mojo Desserts I'm not sure how I saw this on Yelp to bookmark it. I'm certainly glad I did. It's not far from my apartment and other favorite places in East Harlem. It's brand new with fresh backed items and a Mousse Specialty. I opted my first visit for the fresh baked almond croissant. It was a hearty meal, thick and sweet. I'd definitely get this for breakfast again. It's $3.81 with the tax. Next time I'm going to have a coffee too. The employee on duty was very nice, dressed professionally, and efficient at her job. When I was indecisive she gave me a sample of the Brazilian Cheese Bread. I decided it was too doughy for my liking. That's when I opted for the croissant. I definitely want to return to try the White and Dark Chocolate Mousse. It's clean and well organized with customers in and out. They have plenty of seats inside and out if you arrive early. I sat outside at a clean table and ate my croissant. They have a trash can out there too! Plus a bathroom inside! I'm recommending you try this cute cafe. I enjoyed myself and will definitely return.

    I'm many things. And a Chocoholic. Can't help it. So when a co-Yelper of mine came here, I went in real deep for this Mousse myself at this 100th St & Lex. Ave spot. So without further ado, let's dig into the world of Mojo- aka...Mousse by Johan. This place is cute and small. Even the two folks ahead of me were mindful to order their items and keep it moving in a timely manner. Photogenic, yes, but in a way that feels completely natural with indoor seating in full effect. Ben was helpful and she explained Mojo's Mousse flavors. Foundation is obviously on Mousse- but there's a nice Beverage menu worth digging in also. I was in my own Mojo spree and racked up on a few things. Mousse containers come in 3oz, 10oz and 13.5oz cup sizes (think there's another size). I doubted the Passion Fruit mousse- but the minute I heard it's made with real passion fruit pulp, I was sold. Win. Win. And win!!! Hazelnut was another contender so got the 3oz cup. But the king of all kings was Chocolate Mousse and had to top those 2 with a 13.5oz (pint?). Plus a 70% Dark Belgian Hot Chocolate that was boss. Passion Fruit Mousse, Hazelnut and ESPECIALLY that Chocolate- is extraordinary. So much so, I regretted not buying another Chocolate 13.5 cup. Mousse quality is creamy, sublime and satisfied my chocolate mousse craving with a super rich blend. Truly one of a kind in this area.

    Coffee and matcha mousse
    Audrey L.

    This place is adorable!!! If it weren't COVID I would like to sit there and chat with my friends all day if I could afford to order mousse all the time. I tried their regular black coffee, which was good, and their matcha mousse, which was just the right amount of sweet and had great texture. It's light and airy, and the packaging is so tasteful. My friend had the passion fruit mousse and said it was amazing, so I need to go back to try it for sure! I am also curious about the chocolate ones =). Definitely a must try if you are in the area, but expect to spend a little extra for how lovely everything is.

    White and Dark Chocolate Mousse
    Rachel S.

    Really fun dessert spot. Perfect for after dinner or a first date! The mousses are sweet, but not too sweet. Very light and airy with the option for toppings. Limited seating but relaxed vibes.

    Elsie W.

    Passionfruit mousse!!! It's like eating air -- delicious air. Seriously it's dessert that doesn't make you feel like you'll gain weight because it's so light and fluffy. The matcha one is good too. The dark chocolate one tastes exactly as it sounds. Such a cute place and it's such a shame that we can't sit inside for now -- hopefully when things open back up we can finally enjoy this space! The staff is always nice there. The one thing I wish they had was mousse CAKE -- this would go so well with a light sponge cake! They offer different size cups and also chocolate balls as toppings. Their pao de queijo (Brazilian cheese bread) comes warmed up! Highly recommended. AND DON'T FORGET THEIR HOT CHOCOLATE. Best thing in NYC in the midst of this pandemic.

    Mousse lover paradise! Felt like I'm in Belgium again with their mousses! So good and delicious! Location: It is located in Upper East Side 100th St. near Mt Sinai Hospital. Due to covid, I can't come inside the store, but they will re-open soon. I ordered by the door with the owner. Service: the owner was super nice, the store wasn't open yet but he took my order. Food: I bought all the 5 flavors and everything was good. Their mousses are velvety, silky smooth and perfect amount of sweetness. My FAVE FLAVORS are: DARK CHOCOLATE, HAZELNUT PRALINE, WHITE CHOCO and MATCHA. Least favorite: PASSION FRUIT: not a fan, taste like chemical and grainy. Just get the other flavors! Price rating: 8/10, a little pricey, really small cup for $4. Definitely will come back to get the 4 flavors I ordered but not passion fruit! Lol

    Stumbled across this gem on my new favorite hangout, East 100th Street in Harlem, when my friend and I dined at Effie's Kitchen. Before we get to the good stuff, believe me there is a ton of good stuff here are some fun facts: 1. Belgium, IMO, is the chocolate capital in the world. When I visited, of course, I checked out Godiva chocolatier in Brussels.. a must! 2. MOJO is the first chocolate mousse bar to open in NYC 3. MOJO is owned by chef Johan Halsberghe and the name stands for Mousse by Johan.. clever man! Johan worked for the Belgian ambassador at the UN where he crafted meals and desserts. His mousse quickly became a highly requested dessert and well the rest is history! If you want to taste the richest, delicious and heavenly chocolate mousse this is your place. This mousse is a creamy concoction that can lead to a serious addiction. The cafe has a very European feel with light wood dining, cozy window seating and soft lighting. The cafe sells mousse to go, chocolate bars and premium high quality coffee. The mousse flavors on tap were white chocolate, dark chocolate, hazelnut praline (sold out when we visited) passion fruit, ruby chocolate and matcha. You can order a mousse flight and pick up cool home items: gold straws and spoons, towels and a cool golden cooler MOJO logo bag for a steal @$10. The staff is courteous and offered samples of mousse flavors to try before selecting. I tried the white chocolate mousse with chocolate crisp pearls( heaven in a plastic container) and a delicious cup of macchiato. Rochelle ordered the dark chocolate mousse which contained a piece of chocolate in the middle. There are nice touches: the hammered gold trays that house your delectables and the treasure chest of " fortunes" written by Marcus Aurelius. Johan also opened the Brazilian cocktail bar, Bar Goyana, connected to MOJO. His wife is from Brazil and he is from Belgium so you are visiting 2 beautiful countries in one visit! Johan stated in a Time Out article " I want people to come here and have a taste of what it was like to grow up in Belgium". May I say Johan, mission accomplished!

    Best iced mousse coffee This is more of a hidden gem in the neighborhood as it's off a hill Haven't tried any of their mousse but it looks delicious

    I was excited to come here but wasn't particularly impressed. They were out of a lot of the flavors on a Sunday afternoon. It's a cute place and a unique idea but not sure if I'll make it back here again.

    Mousse (white chocolate, dark chocolate, and hazelnut praline)
    Anna L.

    This place is adorable and sells mostly mousse (although they do have a few other food items like Brazilian cheesy bread). There are a couple of flavors of mousse and different sizes. I ordered the 10oz, thinking it'll be a breeze to finish. Mousse is light and fluffy right? Boy was I wrong. I underestimated how much mousse I could eat. I ordered the 70% dark chocolate, white chocolate, and hazelnut praline. They are all delicious but my favorite is the white chocolate. They are very rich and creamy. Definitely get a smaller size unless you plan to share one 10oz container. They come with a cute golden plastic spoon. They currently have a seasonal flavor, pumpkin spice.

    I love Lindt chocolate so I was very happy with this concept. There was a bunch of flavors laid out…read morethroughout the store and I was able to mix and match what Lindt chocolates I wanted as well as how much I wanted! My fiancé and I had a lot of fun looking at all of the choices they had. There were some regular flavors like Milk Chocolate, White Chocolate but there were also some fun flavors like Pumpkin Spice, Milk Chocolate Sea Salt. On top of all of this, there is an option of prepackaged Lindt chocolates as well as different chocolate barks by the entrance. Definitely a fun thing to do with your friends as well!

    This is the new flagship location of Chocoladefabriken Lindt & Sprüngli AG, which is better known…read moreas Lindt. They're also across the street from a flagship Ghirardelli store, which they also own, if you aren't aware. In general, I find Lindt too sweet, but that is also coming from someone who is a dark chocolate lover. For this location specifically, the staff here are friendly and give samples, which is a plus. Anyway, if you're wondering why you'd want to stop here instead of just going to the literal CVS around the corner which sells their products, you can customize stuff better here, and there are many more options. Along with the standard truffles they are famous for, there are flavors available only at this location, as well as seasonal ones. Some current ones include shortbread, made with milk chocolate, as well as a snickerdoodle, which I didn't realize was made with white chocolate, or else I wouldn't have purchased that one (it was still tasty,) and others. The truffles are around 62¢ post-tax for a single one, so it's a little cheap and tasty treat. Outside of truffles, there are bars, some fancier chocolates, and bark, among many other things. Of course, there's a Dubai option like every other chocolatier in case you want to purchase a cheapo version here. Obviously, the chocolates in general are not as high-quality as Läderach, Li-Lac, and other spots, but they are at very different price points, so that's to be expected. The latter spots are more artisanal, while this is a step up from Hershey's "chalk-olate" and other cheaper brands. If you're looking to buy a gift without paying an exorbitant price but still want a step up from Hershey's or similar places, I would recommend going here.

The great reviews and overall rating along with the fact they had an emphasis on sour beers (my wife's favorite style of beer) made it a no brainer. Also as you have likely seen they are a women-owned operation so another positive. We did mistakingly walk by it at first but quickly found it. It's a beautifully designed space and more unique than your typical brewery space. Also speaking of they have lots of drinks other than beers, including wines, ciders, cocktails, coffee and a couple NA beers. Due to the impending storm they were closing early but my wife and I each got a beer. I got their New England IPA called Sun Up which was citrusy and juicy with a touch of bitterness/hoppy notes. Then my wife got their fruited sour Peach Berry Punch that definitely had a punch of pink guava and peach but the berry was more subtle. Two great beers with plenty of other styles available too. Service was friendly with a smile and took no time to get our beers. Such a positive experience we plan on returning to give their cocktails a try! An absolute must visit for beer lovers who find themselves near Bryant Park! (Also non-beer lovers since they offer so much more too.)

My favorite might be the "Sylvia", which is milk chocolate ganache + hints of caramel. The worker behind the counter was kind and helpful. I purchased two macaron sets, informing her that one was a present. She graciously offered me an extra gift bag.

    How have I never written a review of this remarkable chocolate shop?!…read more La Maison du Chocolat is my all-time favorite chocolate. I am a devotee of dark chocolate, and have tried every dark offering it has. Each is superb, even flavor combinations I haven't historically adored (like orange and chocolate - I know it's popular, but it's just not my favorite). That said, my personal favorite is the Anastasia, a hazelnut and dark praline enrobed in dark chocolate. It is exquisite. Service is always excellent. I've ordered in person and over the phone, and have always been so pleased with the staff. The website is helpful when ordering a variety, but if you'd like an entire box of Anastasia, for example, you have to call the Rockefeller Center store and place the order by phone. They ship once a week, and I always have my box fairly quickly. Boxes make terrific gifts ... including for yourself. If you're walking in, I recommend sitting down to enjoy a few pieces of chocolate, then taking the rest in a box with you. There is a cozy but comfortable seating area in the back just for this. This area is also an ideal place to enjoy some of their drinking chocolate. Highly, highly recommend.
