We had a delicious lunch and our server was amazing! She was very knowledgeable and took great care of us. We had the French Onion Soup, the Monte Cristo, and a salad. The Monte Cristo batter tastes like funnel cake! Don’t forget to visit the bakery and pick up some Macrons to take home. Highly recommend!

The aesthetic of this place is incredible. I love that they use steampunk gears, and brass. I just love looking at everything in this place. The staff is incredibly kind.
Now here comes the problem the food is well designed and it looks incredible, but the taste is like superstore food. like go to Walmart and get a chocolate bar probably taste the same for half the price

We visited The Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen for dinner, and the experience felt special from the moment we walked in.
The interior is incredibly detailed and immersive. It feels more like a movie set than a restaurant, with unique decor everywhere you look. Even just being inside is part of the experience, and it is worth taking time to look around.
We had dinner and also picked up some sweets to take with us. Everything felt thoughtfully done, from the atmosphere to the overall experience.
This is a great spot if you are looking for somewhere that feels fun, memorable, and a little out of the ordinary, especially if you enjoy places with strong theming and attention to detail.

Went to the Toothsome Chocolate Emporium on the day we were heading back home, and it was quite an amazing experience. Our server, Melody, was very welcoming and helped us narrow down our choices from the menu. We started with the chocolate bread, a milkshake, and the cocoa and hot honey wings which were great. I ordered the cocoa coq au vin and while it wasn’t my favorite taste-wise, it looked really cool and was well presented. I would definitely go back again for the experience alone. The interior and exterior design of the building are absolutely beautiful and very unique.

With the Steampunk appearance and theme of this location it was hard to not be curious. Stopped in for Brunch, opening at 10:30, checked out the gift shop and bakery they have on the main level while waiting to be seated. Lots of photo-inspiring treats without a doubt, and very clever looking in their presentation. Have a candy wall where you can bag up some sweets, went with the Cherry Gummies in the end and they were easily the best flavor of Cherry gave ever had. I don’t know if these are made on-site or made by someone else but I’ve never run into them in this manner for sure. We were seated upstairs with a nice view below. Noticed that there is some outdoor seating up there as well if want a nice view of the water and Citywalk area. Ashley was our server and was extremely warm and friendly, answering a variety of questions and just having a great attitude overall throughout the time there. My aunt said the Monte Christo was easily one of the best she’s had in a long time, the shake she had was rich and packed with flavor. I’m usually a seafood person and it was tempting to get the Swordfish, but I had to try the Braised Short Rib due to reviews and it didn’t disappoint. If you enjoy this type of dish it’s a very nice flavor balanced dish. Tender meat, roasted carrots are large and fresh with the jus and cocoa gremolata just complimenting the whole meal nicely. Did see two characters talking to diners downstairs matching the steampunk theme so I’m sure that adds a bit of fun, though I’m not sure if you have to be seated in a specific area to have an encounter with them, they certainly aren’t taking the stairs to get upstairs at least. Will certainly return with my sisters family next year when we visit.

We were drawn to the theatrical, enchanting look of this place from the outside, and the inside proved to be just as captivating. Nothing “broke character” per se, and everywhere we looked, it was as though we had been transported to some magical moment in the distant past. There was a wait at the door for a table, but we were able to go straight upstairs to the bar area to avoid it. Beyond the inviting decor and welcoming staff, the food itself – particularly my chocolate infused grownup drink – was spectacular. We enjoyed appetizers (don’t miss the French onion soup!) and shared a dessert of chocolate mousse. Rest assured that there are many savory items on the menu, if you’re not in the mood for anything sweet. Attention was paid to the details in the presentation of the food, and even the dishes and cutlery. We will definitely be stopping back for one of their shakes, which look absolutely amazing! The experience, overall, was transportive, visually captivating, and fun.

Great food, great dessert, great time!
I’m glad they were immune to the blandness of Universal food. Everything was wonderfully seasoned and delicious! The meatloaf was moist and the gravy was so rich. The short rib was tender and just melts in your mouth. The sundaes were HUGE! The milkshakes were so extra and the kids loved it all. We want to get stuff on our way out after the parks all the time.

Who doesn’t love chocolate and a touch of Willy Wonka magic? From the moment we walked in, the place felt whimsical and inviting, almost like stepping into a dessert‑lover’s dream. The atmosphere alone sets the tone, but the food truly sealed the experience.
The chocolate bread was the star of the table — warm, soft, and packed with rich chocolate flavor without being overly sweet. It felt like the perfect blend of comfort food and indulgence. The savory dishes held their own too. Both the hamburger and the chicken sandwich were delicious, cooked just right, and full of flavor. You could tell care went into preparing them, not just rushing plates out.
And then came the ice cream. I was in absolute ice cream heaven. Creamy, flavorful, and generously portioned — the kind of dessert that makes you pause mid‑bite just to appreciate it.
The service made everything even better. Our waitress was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. She checked on us often without hovering and made sure we had everything we needed. That level of care really elevates the whole experience.
Overall, it was a fantastic visit from start to finish. Great food, amazing desserts, and outstanding service. We’ll definitely be coming back again soon.

I ate here twice during my visit to Universal. Each experience was quite different. The first experience was amazing! We were told there would be an hour wait, and we got in after 45 minutes. Our server, Jamie, was awesome! He was friendly and attentive even while juggling a large table. He really knew the menu and was helpful with allergies.
The food was really good, even the kids’ meal. The kids’ chicken and rice felt and tasted like an adult meal, but in a child’s portion. I had the braised beef, which was tender and full of flavor. I was worried about the chocolate sauce being overwhelmingly sweet and tasting of chocolate, but it was well-balanced and not overpowering. I also tried the meatloaf, which was also delicious. I am not a fan of mushrooms, but there were big chunks within the meatloaf that were easy to spot.
You definitely want to ensure that you leave room for dessert. Dessert was the main reason we ate here since we saw people walking around with delicious milkshakes. We ended up ordering a flight of milkshakes, which was 5 slightly smaller versions of the bigger single-order versions. The other difference with the flight vs regular size is that you need to finish the flight at the restaurant, as the containers are glass, whereas the regular size ones are in souvenir containers.
On our second visit, the restaurant was less busy, and the experience wasn’t as good. We had to find someone to get an initial waiter; the service was slower, and the waitress was not as good.

Overall, the food was great, and I would return here again, and hope we end up with a good waiter.

Wife and I went here on our 18 year wedding anniversary. The atmosphere is a really cool steampunk vibe. Make sure you have a reservation. I got the old fashioned which this would probably be my only critique. For $18 dollars they should use a solid good ice cube in the drink instead of regular ice they put in every other drink. We split a southern fried chicken sandwich to save room for dessert which of course is the whole reason people go here. The servings are large so I am glad we split a meal. I would recommend going here and giving it a try.
