We went to the location in Rockefeller Center. The sales associate was nice and attentive, we were the only ones in the small shop. We ordered both regular and wicked hot chocolate and prefered the wicked, it reminded me of the kind my grandmother made when we were young. The prices are quite high and the sizes of the chocolates... More

When it comes to chocolate, I go totally non-dairy, since I am allergic. I just have a few options at Jacques Torres, but what I can eat is exquisite: the dark chocolate bars (the one with almonds is a favorite), chocolate covered almonds dusted with cocoa, dark chocolate covered graham crackers and dark chocolate bark filled with hazelnuts, almonds and...

Cheaper than some European brands but just as delicious!! Tried several flavors and was not disappointed. The shop located on the lower lever of Rockefeller Ctr was easy to find and had seating for Hot Chocolate lovers! More

Upon entering the store, you are immediately embraced by strong chocolate scent, all you can see is a wide selection of chocolate and obviously, all you can think of is chocolate. It was a truly delightful experience to enjoy their hot drinks, cookies and truffles! The store itself is a pleasant environment too. It isn't exactly cheap, but the chocolate... More

I learned about Jacque Torres' wicked hot chocolate from an episode of Best Thing I Ever Ate on Food Network. When I finally made my way to New York, I put that on my list of must-dos. It was a true disappointment. The "famous" hot chocolate was far from spicy. It was teeth-breakingly sweet with just the slightest hint of... More

While the other goodies - like the chocolate chip cookies - are great, for me it's ALL about the hot chocolate, which should properly be called drinking chocolate. It's so intensely chocolatey and rich that it's almost like drinking warm pudding (in a good way). While there are different flavors - like Wicked which has chiles - the Classic to... More

A couple of years ago, the New York Times ran an article discussing how to make the perfect chocolate chip cookie. They interviewed Jacque Torres in this article, and the recipe the Times ended up printing used Jacque Torres chocolate disks. So I knew I had to come to this place to try some. The location is somewhat isolated, on... More

Ok, so based on sites like Yelp, I'm thinking this will be truffle heaven. It isn't. Selection of truffles is ok, but there are only about 10 flavors. Unless you want chocolate milk, its pretty much no selection of anything. I was pretty disappointed as we sited this as a destination based on other reviews. Oh well. We know better... More

After hearing Martha Stewart rave about these cookies on her show, we decided we had to stop in and give them a try. The cookies are quite large with an unexpected gooey center, but the real show stopper is the hot chocolate. Ever tried hot chocolate with a ancho pepper in it? Well now's your chance and it's called the... More
