Leonidas Chocolates

We have a mix of good and bad experience trying out the place. Bought a chocolate croissant that looks really good but far from looking like and tasting like a croissant inside. I like the chocolate filling though. We tried their dipped ice cream and gelato too and they were fair for their price. Their chocolate drinks tasted like they were water downed. Most of their items are on the higher price end. Probably the reason why most of their staffs would look sour when you can’t give anything even though we’re only doing a takeout and could also be why we got a not so good versions of their drinks. Some staffs can be unaccommodating and unapproachable.

The cones here are a good price and definitely worth it, but the crepe and waffles were over twenty dollars each and honestly not very good. The ambiance was poor with uncomfortable seating that made it hard to relax or enjoy our desserts. We came in as a group of eight on a Friday night, and the experience with the staff was extremely disappointing. When we arrived, the person working was not at the counter. As soon as he came out, the first thing he said was that we were being too loud, even though we had just walked in. About ten minutes later he finally took our order, and after another fifteen minutes he came back and yelled at us again, telling us to be quiet or he would have to ask us to leave. I understand that we might have been a little loud as a large group, but there are much better ways to handle customers than raising your voice or threatening to remove them. It felt unwelcoming and unnecessarily aggressive. Overall, the desserts were overpriced, the atmosphere uncomfortable, and the service unprofessional. This is not a place for groups or anyone looking to have a good time. I will not be returning as there are much better dessert spots in the city that know how to treat their customers with respect..
