Read moreHonestly one of the most beautiful and delicious restaurants I’ve ever been to. The menu is a fusion between local Caribbean food, well known modern European food, all with a twist of cocoa or chocolate given you are on the Hotel Chocolat farm in St Lucia. The menu offers something for everyone from kids to adults, from vegans to meat lovers, from healthy to junky. We stayed at the hotel and had breakfast, lunch and dinner here for 3 days; and we ate pretty much everything on the menu and not a single dish was bad. Breakfast was our preferred if we had to choose; especially the banana bread cake, best I’ve ever had. Lunch, id say I loved the pizza and the club sandwich. For dinner, the pulled pork starter in the shape of the pitons was fantastic. The roti was also delicious if you want something more local. Also they give you complimentary bread which comes with chocolate balsamic, cocoa butter and pesto.
Service is brilliant, you don’t wait that long. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Prices are high but well worth it given the backdrop scenery of Petit Piton. If you are coming just to eat here and aren’t staying at the hotel, I advise you to do lunch or early sunset dinner. A dinner for two will cost you between $100 and $200 depending how much you order/drink.
Oh and if you like your cocktails, they do great variations of some classics like espresso martini but with their own chocolate infused liquors.
PS: the hotel is beautiful and really...
Read moreWhat a beautiful restaurant! I suggest going there a little early and enjoying some drinks at the bar. Their alcoholic beverages were definitely a highlight for myself and my husband. All drinks were unique and had some form of cacao/chocolate in it. My favorite was the espresso martini. For food, we received complimentary bread with 3 different dipping “sauces”- all very good! For appetizers, we enjoyed their sharing platter. And for entrees, my husband had their club Caesar and I had the ribeye. All were very tasty- and yes, as others have mentioned…pretty expensive. But both my husband and I agreed it was worth it for the the ambience and experience. The only negative for our dinner was our choice to order a side of the white chocolate mashed potatoes. They did not taste good and were over whipped. Besides that, the service was wonderful and we...
