The packaging alone screams luxury. The potato chips are to die for! The chocolate is not too sweet, the chips have a nice crisp and the right touch of salt. The truffels are some of the best I've ever had. I think the price for these items are quite reasonable for the quality your are given. Each bag of chips are about $18-$20. These chips are perfect for gifts or cheat day. Truly something special! The service is very good. I've had the same ladies help me every time I've visited and they are always very kind. This place is located inside the Mitsuwa Marketplace. It's right at the entrance of the Market. I'm not always in the area but when I get the chance I pick up at least a few boxes. You will not regret this treat! The place is very clean. There is plenty of parking available.

The worker was…read morequite rude to us at the store, I believe because my partner was obviously not Japanese and was trying to make a purchase. She gave the first customer several discount cards for being Japanese and spoke kindly to her. I don't think the worker realized I understood every word. We arrived as the second customer, but she acted as if a later customer was in line first, shooed us off, then gave the last discount card to that customer. Royce chocolate dedicated stores value their service and make sure their customers are taken care of. Please uphold that standard. I've never had to leave a Royce store feeling upset that I bought chocolate until today.

Good chocolate is pricier. Pretentious chocolate is priciest. See's is good chocolate. I'll take See's over any other chocolate because: nostalgia. Amen and hallelujah. There was a constant parade of patrons carrying bags out the door. I like to think about the folks who get to enjoy the goodies contained in those bags and I know the boxes, tins etc are filled with deliciousness. Oh the joy! As always, samples were flowing, service was swift and friendly and smiles were free. This location gets a little busy, and the parking lot can get congested but keep your patience in check and you'll be in the sweet shop before you can say dark-chocolate- covered-Scotchmallows!

The service wasn't great and only one drink was good or correct. I'm still not 100% sure one of…read morethem was the correct drink. I ordered 2 drinks through the app yesterday, the Honey Bori Latte (seasonal) and the Banana Milk Latte. The Banana Milk Latte was delicious once everything was mixed well, but the Honey Bori Latte was just bitter and then less bitter when mixed. It was already half melted, there was no salted honey cold foam or Jolly Pong which is supposed to be part of the drink. I got the order to go, so I didn't notice that my drink was wrong until I got home, so I couldn't even get it corrected. I didn't realize the drink was wrong at first. I thought it was just a flavor I didn't like even though I noted that I couldn't taste Barley at all. Then half way throught it, I decided to look at the description on the app to remember what it was supposed to taste like because it tasted like an ordinary flavorless latte. The description said there's barley milk, salted honey cold foam and Jolly Pong. That's when it hit me that I either got the wrong drink or someone didn't make it right because there was no flavor of salted honey and definitely no Jolly Pong in my drink. It didn't even look like I had cold foam topping my drink, but maybe that's because it was melting already. Overall, I was very upset and disappointed with my drink, but was happy my mom's drink was fine. Now this is only a part of why I was dissapointed with yesterday's experience. The other reason was the app and workers. Maybe the workers aren't used to working with the Smoking Tiger app yet? Or maybe the app still needs work, but the drinks I ordered through the app took forever to be marked ready even though my drinks had been ready for some time which was obvious because my Honey Bori Latte was already half mixed because the layers of ingredients were melting into each other. I arrived at the cafe about 5 minutes after ordering, but the app's estimated wait time was another 10 minutes which wasn't a problem for me, especially since I saw a person waiting for his order and some people inside the cafe, although it wasn't full like usual. I just assumed some people ordered before me, so I just have to wait a bit, which again was fine with me especially since I was waiting for my mom to arrive. At some point after the one person waiting for their drink left, I realized the 2 girls at the counter were just talking and not making any drinks. I checked the app and it still said my order was being prepared. After 2 more people ordered their drinks and received them immediately, I went up to the counter, by this point it had been the app's estimated 10 minute wait. I told the girl with glasses my name and showed her the order on my phone. Then she walked toward the fridge and got my drinks, put them in a drink carrier, passed them to me and then turned around while looking at the receipt paper that was with the drinks. That was it. She didn't tell me which drink was which and they were not labeled, so my mom and I just had taste them to figure out which was which. At most places, they let you know which drink is which, so I was just confused with the service I received, especially when the place wasn't busy. And to top it all off, my order was marked completed 10 minutes after I received my order which again just left me in confusion. I usually love this place and was saddened when they got rid of their Choco Mugwort drink, but I'm always looking forward to their seasonal drinks and baked goods. This time though, I don't think I was even able to taste one of their new seasonal drinks because it tasted like a regular latte with milk. I want to try their other current seasonal drinks, but I'm also worried about what I will receive in the future and I'm not ready for another disappointing coffee any time soon.

One of my favorite recent discoveries. Definitely worth adding to your list…read more I wasn't sure what to expect at first. The front space looks more like an arts and crafts setup than a typical chocolate spot (sorry Naomi if you're reading this), but the tasting experience completely changed my impression. Naomi, who led the tasting, is also involved in making the chocolate, which made a big difference. She walked us through their collaborations over the years and the inspiration behind different flavors. It's not a set tasting menu. It's more go with the flow, which made it feel personal and relaxed. She's clearly passionate about what she does and very open to ideas. You can even reach out ahead of time to design your own experience. We ended up tasting over ten flavors that day because she was generous with samples. I left feeling like I probably don't need chocolate again for a while, but still walked out with a stack of bars to share with friends and family. There's something really special about how they connect you to the process. Seeing raw cocoa beans and learning more about how everything is made gave me a bit more appreciative. I also tried cacao nibs, which are gaining popularity, but I'll admit I still prefer chocolate with some sweetness. One standout was a bar sweetened with maple sugar. If had similar but it's also completely different. So many interesting flavors and ideas here. Definitely a unique and memorable experience. More reason for you to check it out.

If truffles aren't your thing, they have plenty of chocolate bars to choose from. I highly recommend the berry bar (organic dried raspberries, strawberries and pacific sea salt). Service is welcoming and friendly! They'll offer you a free sample of any of the truffles (minus the Dubai flavor). It's a great way to try something before committing. If you get the a box of truffles, they'll wrap them up in a cute packaging with your choice of a colored ribbon. Perfect for gifts or to yourself!

They do have some really good cream puff flavors, the vanilla cream is my go-to, and my kids love the chocolate. The customer service needs some work. Every single time I've been there, it kind of feels like the staff is just not thrilled to help, and that vibe definitely takes away from the experience. I keep coming back because the cream puffs are delicious, but I really wish they'd at least crack a smile or make you feel a bit more welcome. I did see a fly on a cream puff once, and while they did toss it out after I pointed it out, it'd be great if they covered the pastries so that doesn't happen. And be prepared to wait a bit because they fill the puffs to order, which is nice for freshness but can slow things down.
