    Inside Dubai chocolate bar. Good filling ratio
    Angie M.

    How did I ALMOST forget about this place?? I've always known that Bella Sophia is here and I've rarely been by lately. My sister was visiting from out of town so she needed gifts to bring back to her coworkers. I suggested a pit stop to Bella Sophia since we were walking by there anyway. She grabbed a nine piece box but then I realized she wouldn't get to try one. So I told her to pick one for herself and I got a Dubai chocolate bar for me. SO WELL MADE. $9 of heaven split three ways and it was perfect.

    My boyfriend and I randomly stumbled upon this place while heading to Tanners, and we're so glad we did! The moment we walked in, we were greeted by the most amazing aroma of fresh, handcrafted chocolate. The shop itself is beautifully set up, with each chocolate piece displayed like a tiny work of art. Jim, the owner, was incredibly kind and welcoming. He took the time to share how he and his wife craft the chocolates, and it was so fascinating to hear about the love and care that goes into every piece. We tried the Cookie Butter (Frog), Dulce De Leche, Raspberry Ganache, and Lemon Ganache. Each one was a 10/10! Perfect texture, rich flavor, and such unique combinations. We're already looking forward to coming back soon!

    Happy National Cream-filled Chocolate Day! And Valentine's Day lol! These are just beautiful- Almost too pretty to eat!

    Came in search of chocolates on Valentine's Day (of course) - wanted to treat myself and had a great experience!! Family owned by a husband and wife team and named after their daughter - so sweet! And their chocolates truly are beautiful works of art - almost too pretty to eat! They have tons of bon bons in all different flavors - strawberry ganache, creme brûlée, salted caramel, raspberry, coconut - you name it! All of them look like paintings...and others are shaped like intricate turtles, dogs, seashells, airplanes, and even a giant stiletto heel! Truly impressive creations! They taste as lovely as they look - we tried the strawberry ganache, creme brûlée, raspberry, coconut, and speculaas - all were wonderful but the coconut was my fave - the filling is so flavorful and super creamy with small bits of coconut and the chocolate is smooth with a slight crisp quality to the outer shell - bellissimo!! Their chocolates are on the pricey side but the quality is truly there and they are all little works of art. They've won tons of awards - very well deserved - AND they were even featured at the Grammy's one year....so I expected the prices. But they validate your parking so it's worth it haha!! And they're so nice - I met one of the owners and he was most delightful- excellent service- so friendly and obviously loves the business. You'll find them in the Salon Republic in the Pacific City Mall. There's lots of parking along the sides and also in the below ground garage for a fee - but they validate. The store itself is cozy, clean, and very inviting. I had a great time visiting and will definitely be back for more of those coconut bon bons! Tysm!

    Beautiful storefront, even friendlier company behind the counter. Chocolates are handpainted and they're packaged beautifully! Literally artwork chocolate. Learned their chocolates are water-based with no creams. Read: no fillers. Pure, decadent chocolate. Perfect for a self treat or an elegant gift.

    Been a long time fan of Bella Sophia chocolates since they first popped up in Pacific City and so happy they made their Yelp page so I can write my review on the BEST specialty chocolate shop in OC! Food: 5/5 - Small Chocolate Mixed Gift Box ($19) In light on this holiday season: Incoming gift givers, I know sometimes that finding the perfect item to give can be so hard to find. But whether it be your physician mentor or your significant other, you cannot go wrong with a custom picked box from Bella Sophia. I've gotten boxes almost every holiday and graduation season and the beautifully crafted and deliciously made chocolates have always been such a hit! Some personal favorites - Sea Salt Milk Chocolate (Turtles, Eggs) - Crème Brûlée Truffle - Amarena Wild Cherry - Three Berries Service: 5/5 All my experiences have been so delightful! During my most recent visit, one of the workers Nick was so helpful when selecting my choices, especially when I was planning to give chocolates to someone with a significant peanut allergy. He helped me choose chocolates that didn't overlap in flavors and was able to wrap my gifts up wonderfully in a nice red box and gift bag. Definitely will be returning!

    Must try the sipping chocolate!!! Service is always exceptional. It's always a great surprise to see what flavors are available. Crème brûlée S'mores bite Gold turtles Three berry AMAZING! If you love chocolate, you have to try it here!

    I went in looking for a gift for my father in law. He loves dark chocolate. The gentleman that is the owner was so nice and helped me pick a perfect bar. I was on a time crunch and he was super nice. I also bought two other chocolates to try, and WOW they were so good. The churro one and the Carmel truffle I believe were so delicious. I love that they are small batch and his wife is the artist that paints on the chocolates. They are so beautiful and so talented. I definitely would be coming back.

    Bella Sophia immediately caught my attention as we were walking through the food hall section of Pacific City Mall. Beautifully designed chocolates that look like tiny works of art. https://bit.ly/3EVytKC Mango Ganache has a good balance between the dark chocolate mini-cup filled with the perfect amount of tropical fruit. There's a surprise crunch in there that I don't quite know what it was but I liked it. Gianduja with Ghost Pepper Salt was so many yummy things happening in my mouth! The decadent chocolate, the taste of hazelnut, the hint of spicy, and a slightly salty finish. This was one of those truffles that wowed me! I would get this again! Speculaas is simply gorgeous to look at! It's a teal, purple, gold, glittery streaks. Biting into the dark chocolate shell, a gooey cookie butter oozes out and it's so delightful! Some chocolates are labeled as vegan but we got lucky speaking to one of the friendly shop owners and he pointed out additional vegan truffles. Totally worth making a stop here for delicious treats! I think I found my new favorite chocolatier!

    Beautiful boxing, especially for gifts!

    I was looking for a gift for my sister who was visiting and found this gem. What separates this chocolate shop from the other ones I have been to are 2 things: more variety of different flavor mixtures and the chocolate just look more beautiful. They still have the standard flavors that are usually found in other shops like caramel, dark and milk chocolate, cappuccino, etc. but they also have some fun ones like banana ganache, three berries, matcha raspberry, etc. The packaging was perfect for the gift and the guy helping us out was really nice. I think he might've been the owner. Great experience!

    I was spending the day with my Father and his wife, who live in the area, and we decided to walk around this outdoor mall bordering the coastline. The area was filled with shops and eateries. One of the placed we walked into and caught our eye was Bella Sophia Chocolates. So glad we walked in. We spoke to a gentleman behind the counter that explained the business and that it was owned by himself and his wife and that everything is handmade. The store was elegantly arranged and the customer service was fabulous! There were all kinds of specialized chocolates / treats. We decided to try a Churro Truffle - I am not a fan of truffles but this was AMAZING!!!! If you are in the area, then you have to stop in and give it a try!!!

    Husband and wife, amazing chocolates, ethically sourced. Always such a joyful experience every time I come in!

    Some of you... Are…read morejust in the know. And if you didn't know.... Now you know. But, here's what I know...... Or At least what I know now.... Most come for the Coffee. Some come for the Beats. But All stay for the Vibes.... IYKYK! ;) So, here's what YOU need to know to be in the know. The IYKYK Coffee Lab was founded by a Mother and Daughter team who opened up a cool coffee shop paying homage to the love story of how the Mother, the daughter's Dad, had met her husband over a cup of coffee decades prior. Basically, A cup of beans sprouted a love story that's would ultimately turn that love story into a coffee shop for those you love coffee. Yes, at IYKYK! Coffee Lab.... Serving up specialty drinks with some fun twists on coffee; this place is definitely more than just a chain coffee shop that has a mermaid flashing some random gang signs.... IYKYK ;) So what makes this place different you ask? Do you know a local, mom n pop or in this case, a mom & daught coffee shop that is doing more than just pushin' beans and frothin' milk? Maybe a coffee shop that's cool, hip, and drops the beats?? Hey! this place does....IYKYK! Or what about a coffee shop where the vibe is the cool people who work here, the rad customers who shop there, or just the overall vibe that makes you feel good while waiting in line to get your order on. Hey, just ask any of the locals in Huntington Beach what their thoughts are on this place and I think you'll finally know..... What it's like to BE IN THE KNOW..... Of a little Coffee Lab called IYKYK! And now that you know...... LETS GOOOOOO!!!

    This coffee shop is so cute! Such a hidden gem in Pacific City…read more It opens early, has plenty of space, and the staff are so welcoming. I got the You Salty Dog, and the vanilla foam adds a little extra sweetness, so just keep that in mind if you prefer your coffee less sweet. My sister got the Coco Panda, which was also more on the sweet side -- although that could be because she added vanilla cold foam. Overall, such a cute spot with a cozy atmosphere. Definitely worth checking out if you're in Pacific City!
