Everything about this place was incredible. From the hostess to the waiter to the bartender to the food! We ate here to celebrate our 5th wedding anniversary and we were more than happy with the celebration. I am 6 months pregnant so the waiter had the bartender make some incredible mocktails for me sans alcohol. They were pretty, fun and... more

My husband and I went to Hot Chocolate on the night we got engaged, and though we no longer live in Chicago, we took a trip back to celebrate our first wedding anniversary and ate again at Hot Chocolate. I love the feel of the place - candlelit and comfy its very romantic - even though the tables are very... more

My wife and I went to brunch at Hot Chocolate today and I must say, we were not disappointed. We both started with the "black & tan" hot chocolate. It was 1/3 hot fudge, the rest hot chocolate with a home made marshmallow. It was delicious. Hands down the best hot chocolate I've ever had. For brunch, I had the... more

We went to Hot Chocolate for dinner before heading to a concert at the Congress Theater which is close by. Firstly, I rang to reserve a table several hours earlier, to which the lady said I did not require a booking as the restaurant was very full for a Saturday night! I insisted on making a reservation regardless as we... more

We were planning on eating dinner at a less expensive restaurant and getting dessert here after, but the place we were going to go had a 45 minute wait. Since we were hungry and it was already 10pm we decided to check out the dinner menu at Hot Chocolate. The menu was pretty small, and since I'm a vegetarian I... more

Only had dessert but the menu looked great too. The dessert was out of this world and the light hot chocolate could have probably been my dessert all on it's own! If you love sweets you HAVE to go here! more
