A friend of mine introduced me years ago, he was a regular with the most impeccable taste. Visiting on my own, I found the staff to be very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful and for an amazing experience overall! Highly recommend getting something for yourself, a client, a friend, or significant person in your life something from here! The packaging was also well done and thoughtful.

I would agree with the review earlier that some item seems sweeter than it was, perhaps caramel. However, it still hasn’t made me put down my love.

This place has been my favorite since it’s introduced as a gift by Steinways Gala years ago and I have come here ever since.
I feel welcome and pleasantly clean fresh walking in, even recently.
They specialize in what they do best with solid recipes, classic quality items and wrapping. Price is reasonable (Sept, 2025). The associate is knowledgeable and polite, handling with care which I appreciated.
This is the place I would love to come for my chocolate appetite and gifts.

Very helpful staff. The dark chocolate raspberry cats and cherry cordials were excellent.

Positive reviews for this place are imbalanced and overstated. This place is completely average. Very generic filled chocolates and no samples. The chocolate mousse cup was gross; even the kids had a flat reaction to it. The best thing you can get if you actually enjoy refined chocolate is one of the expensive single origin bars. Although you should probably just go elsewhere.

If you appreciate artistry and old school quality in hand-made chocolate, go here.

You will return again and again.

Excellent choices! Great service.

I was across the street for breakfast and inquired about this chocolate shop. They enthusiastically encouraged me to check it out, and I was not disappointed.

My wife loves dark chocolate, and she was super impressed. I bought an assortment, and everything I have tried has been delicious.

The service was professional, kind, and friendly.

We will gladly make the drive from Waukegan to this fantastic store again and again.

Incroyable! Best chocolat I've had in a long time. And incredible service 😁

The best chocolate on the whole entire planet. The dark chocolate orange peels are incredible. One of my happy places.

Magic magic magic packed inside the best chocolate around. My father used to replenish his own supply of medallions. When he moved out of state, the Pirons mailed his supply monthly. That gold ribbon wrapped box is pure love!
