    I really hope my videos uploaded. I was in NJ for a week , my tia brought us to this little shop only to realize that it has huge variety of chocolates choices. As you first walk in, the sweet aroma of chocolate starts to take over your mind. Your eyes start to wander around and start acting like a children wanting everything you see, the best thing of being an adult is that you don't need to ask your parents for chocolate go ahead and just buy whatever you want. Everything in display has pricing the goodies in the glass display they charge by pound, if your just a cheap chocolate lover this place ain't for you stick to your regular store, the price is a bit more here. Definitely worth it .

    AMAZING LOVE THAT THEY COVER ENTIRE STRAWBERRY WITH CHOCOLATE . Just with that alone you NEED to try this and experience the amazingness. Also they have very nice packaging for holidays.

    Best chocolate strawberry's !!
    Stephanie M.

    Love this place and it has been around for a while now but I never thought to come in. What was I thinking !!!!?? This small candy shop smells like chocolate heaven from minute you walk in! There's an overwhelming amount of delicious chocolate, so you pick your poison. I was craving chocolate covered strawberries so I went for that. I loved how rich and creamy the chocolate tasted. Once you have your first bite trust me you'll become so addicted! I got 5 for about $20 ...not too bad compared to other competitors. I will definitely start coming here and placing my chocolate covered strawberry orders! Will I recommend this place ? If you're a chocolate lover like myself then yess , 100 percent!! Tip : the parking sucks ! So if you're going you might want to have an idea of what you'd like to get to be in and out. #stephaniemoscoso

    best chocolate enrobed strawberries!

    Finally a place that actually enrobes the whole strawberry with chocolate and good chocolate at that. My hubby gets them for me a few times a year but this year he went the day before Valentine's Day and bought me home a box. Best so far, they were big, sweet, juicy and delicious. We actually restrained ourselves and made them last between the two of us for three days (not easy!) but they were the best ever.

    Today, Monday, I picked up an order using the To Good To Go (TGTG) app, which helps reduce food…read morewaste in our communities. This is end of day food, or prior day's left-over food from stores and restaurants. The items were supposed to be a value of $15, but the items in the bag were not that value, nor were they in-house baked goods. They gave me 2 stale cut up baguettes, which they normally don't even sell, nor are they on their menu. According to the counter staff person, they order them from somewhere else so they can sell them on the weekends. (So they were baked Friday?) The counter staff person said her boss packed the TGTG bag and there was nothing she could do. I question these baguettes: which kitchen were they cooked in? Someone's home kitchen? I've never seen baguettes sold or baked in Reb's store, only desserts. In fact, this is what Barachou advertises: "Handcrafted choux à la crème, tarts, and viennoiseries -- all made fresh daily." Anyway, what I got were 2 stale baguettes which were cut in half so as to fit in the bag and one croissant (that's fine). The baguettes are inedible, and they can't be price verified because they are not even on their menu. If they're going to advertise on TGTG, then they need to honor the intent of the app, and provide the stated value of yesterday's leftover OR extra dessert items. This was bait and switch. Bait & switch means you advertise one deal (ie "$15 value") but replace it with a much cheaper deal. TGTG customers know they are getting day old or end of day items, valued as such. But they should not be shortchanged and given $5-$8 values that are advertised as $15 or $18. The bag should have had something like a cookie and 2 almond croissants or 3 specialized croissants. Even more disappointing as I have shopped here often especially when she was first starting out during the pandemic. Sorry Reb, but you lost me as a loyal customer. ***editing to respond to owner: I've never had a TGTG restaurant regift another restaurant's goods yet claim they are baked fresh in store. I've also never gotten baguettes that are already cut up for me. Do they do it that way in France? Also does Bread's bakery know that you probably buy their baguettes three for $5 special and then probably resell them at your store? Or do they deliver direct to you as one of their vendors? Just curious.

    My parents have been raving about this spot for years. I saw this spot in a Youtube video, and…read morewanted to pickup a gift card for some family in the NY area. We figured while we were grabbing the gift card we just had to try a cookie too. When we arrived, there's a couple steps you go down to get into the store. We went in about 10am on a Saturday, and there was about two people ahead of us. We were helped within minutes, and I ordered the Two Chip Chocolate Chip Cookie, while my partner got the Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookie. I believe each cookie ran a little more than $5/cookie. We threw the cookies in my backpack, got lost going to Trader Joes, and then went back to the hotel (a 40 minute journey) and to our surprise - the cookies were still warm even though it was raining outside! My partner and I demolished those cookies within seconds. They were warm, slightly crispy on the edges, so many chocolate chips inside and chewy in the middle. If I could describe the perfect cookie this would be it. I imagine this would be delightful with a cold glass of milk. I also noticed several people at JFK with Levain bags, so I'm guessing it's common to stock up and bring home. Now, I'm trying to convince my partner to go to the location in Beverly Hills when we're in the area.

    Taste wise, the cookies at Levain are delicious. Teller soft gooey center that's not too soft but…read morecrispy edges are just right. I have always loved boneless cookies so this was definitely new but delicious. This location is very tiny so beware, it was cramped. I had to shuffle in and out. It's better for a quick order. Staff were friendly. You could see directly behind counter how they make the pastries and drinks.
