The Chocolate Bar

10/10 for this elegant spot in Downtown Grand Island. Attention to every detail was paid from the fabulous music, soft lighting, cozy temperature, shiny glassware, cute plates to the calming sunlit dining area. We sat at the comfy bar and sampled the yummy adult drinks, a decadent latte, and eyed the delectable gluten-free goodies but were too full after our incredible lunch to try any sweets. I love that I could order a gluten-free grilled cheese with my home-made tasty tortilla soup and who could forget the incredible famous Dreisbach augratins! I nearly licked my bowl clean. Whether you need a quiet spot to start your morning with a delicious coffee, a sunny place for a perfect lunch or a romantic dinner idea for date night out, the Chocolate Bar quite impressively has something for everyone. Can't wait to return!

I had a very disappointing experience with the service here. While placing our order initially went smoothly, I witnessed the manager arguing with the cashier about whether a cupcake was gluten-free. I felt bad for the young woman taking orders, as she was doing her best to handle the situation with professionalism. Unfortunately, when it came time to receive our food, our order was incorrect. The man distributing the orders was not only unhelpful but also dismissive and condescending. Rather than assisting in resolving the mistake, he made remarks such as, “Well, someone ordered it,” and, “I just love when people don’t remember what they order and I’m just supposed to know.” Errors can certainly happen, but his attitude and tone made it clear he was placing the blame on us, which was unnecessary and unprofessional. The food itself was acceptable, but considering the cost, I expected a far better overall experience.
