The soft serve ice cream is very good as well, though the chocolate dip does overpower it a bit. I feel like next time I'll just get a regular plain cone, mainly because the dip is very thick and after a while it becomes a bit too sweet. I definitely want to try the milkshakes they had advertised next time.

I am so happy that we did because the pistachio gelato I ordered and the cookies and creme my boyfriend had were amazing! The consistency was perfect; smooth and creamy! The flavor was spot on, tasted great and came with a complimentary waffle slice! There were two women working while I went in and they were very pleasant, helped us out and let us try as many flavors of gelato that we wanted. The shop itself is small and quaint, with lots of sweet options. What caught my eye were the salt water taffy in many odd flavors such as maple bacon. Unfortunately I didn't grab any, I am still regretting that but there is always next time because I will be back!

The ambience inside is casual but romantic. The beer selection is amazing and usually features some local brews. The menu options are probably the most unique you'll find in the city, as they have several different features that are chocolate-inspired. I've been here for a fondu special that ended up being pricey for what it was, but was definitely enjoyable enough for me not to regret it. I've also had the spaghetti bolognese and LET ME TELL YOU it rocked my socks. Homemade pasta with a delicious bolognese sauce totally snuck up on me and wowed me. Maybe I have low pasta standards, but as far as I'm concerned it was wonderful. Make sure to call in for reservations on busy nights though, it gets packed quick.

I came here Thursday morning with a friend of mine and I made sure to come here hungry! Last time I…read morevisited this place, I noted that the food coming out looked really yum. Around 10 there wasn't much of a rush and was the perfect time to enjoy some much needed tete-a-tete with my friend. She ordered the Raspberry muffin and avocado toast with feta and I ordered the nut steel cut oats and berries toast. I absolutely loved both of my meals. The steel cut oats were generously served, slightly sweet but not too much. The berries toast, very unique combination of mascarpone, honey, strawberries, and black pepper with a dash of mint. The dark chocolate mocha was delish, and was surprised to discover they offer milk chocolate mochas as well. Additionally, I loved that the cutlery was served wrapped in cloth napkins, which gives it a classic edge. The environment has indeed changed quite a bit. You can see a new roasters has been built and a baby gate has been placed in front of the down going stairs (wonderful safety note for those with wild toddlers like me). It seems milk gets hand delivered by an older amish couple (we so happened to witness this ourselves)...I don't think you can get any more locally sourced than that! I'm glad I revisited this place as I believe this has a lot of great things going for it. Although the sole staff did very well, the food did take a bit of time to come. As we were in no hurry this did not effect my time there but that is something potentially to note for future goers.

I paid $5 for one there, which I thought was crazy at first, but I tried it and it has officially become the best cannoli I have ever had in my life. The guy said it was imported from Italy, and I want to believe him, but I kind of felt like he was just saying that so I would pay $5 for it. But it worked, and I'm glad it did! Next time I have a cannoli craving this is where I'll be heading. But that's all I'll be getting.
