The Chocolate House — Restaurant in Washington

My boyfriend surprised me with beautifully decorated chocolates from here for my birthday, and they were so amazing that I was compelled to find them on Google to leave them a review!!! He ordered a random assortment and only instructed them to not put caramel in the box. The message was to say, "Happy Birthday, Ladybug" (his pet name for me). They followed his instructions exactly, and in the center of the assortment, was a truffle painted like a ladybug, called a Ladybug Praline!!! Not only that, but my bf is English and I noticed they added a truffle called "London Fog" which tasted like a very mild tea and was absolutely delicious!!!!

She even gave me a little ice pack to keep in the bag because I was worried about the chocolates melting in the warm car. I love that you can choose your ribbon color, it’s a nice personal touch. I will definitely be making a repeat visit if we’re ever in DC again!

I also wanted to note that I see some people complaining about the prices. Given the amount of personalization and knowledge the employees put into each box, I feel the prices are very fair. It’s a small business in the heart of DC with high quality chocolates that are meant to be a...

When we were looking for a fun experience for our 80 year old client to enjoy with her teenage daughter, we stumbled upon The Chocolate House and how perfect! We pre-selected a beautiful 30-piece chocolate box that opened like a jewelry box and had it waiting there for them to fill up upon their arrival (we also bought ourselves a couple pieces at the same time because how could we resist - and YUM). The team there were so helpful, and assisted our clients in picking the perfect 30 pieces. I even overheard the teenager ask the worker in amazement, "do you have all the different types memorized?!". All in all, this was the perfect spot for our clients, and we can't wait to impress our next chocolate-loving adventurers with it - they even had...
