Here are my 2 cents about my visit to chocobar cortes. My girlfriends and I made reservations for Sunday brunch. The place is cute and the service was great. The staff worked together to make sure food came out together, quick and hot. However, I must say, the chocomartini was weak, not much liquor, it tasted like a frozen frappé. I think some of the food items are overpriced. We ordered the picadera, and for $27, we got 2 empanadas, 2 tostones with carne asada, 1 small suruyo, and 1 small alcapurria. We also ordered chicken and waffles $25, but we didn't get chicken, we got "nuggets" for that price I was expecting at least one real piece of chicken or one chicken tender, not McDonald's nuggets (not tasty at all). Overall, the atmosphere is nice, the service is great, and the food was good, but please consider serving real fried chicken with your waffles.
The drink menu will make it so difficult to choose. Their food menu is well thought out with plenty of meat and vegan options. The monfongo tacos are some of the best I ever had.
Great service and delicious food!
I came by a a while ago and was mildly disappointed. It was understaffed and the staff took a long time to take our drink order, I observed they were chatting at the bar instead of tending to our needs. We even tried to get their attention multiple times and they pretty much ignored us, they were less than 5 feet away from us and somehow couldn’t hear us calling for them? It wasn’t even that busy of a night either.. would appreciated it if they tended to us first and then worry about their side conversations. The food was okay. Not great. It’s not worth the price at all, it’s clear who the target demographic is considering a vast amount of transplants are moving into the area, but this restaurant is not for locals/natives. I’d really like for the price point to meet the quality of these dishes. There just simply wasn’t enough food on the “Pollo frito” dish. The automatic 18% gratuity on your bill is understandable but not deserved on the night I was there. There’s a lot the manager can do to make this a more enjoyable restaurant.
I would give this a 3.5 star review. The chicken empanada was really good and so was the stew! The chocolate grilled cheese and croquettes were not special- I was disappointed by those. Food came out pretty quickly. Waiter was fine. The hot chocolate drink we received for about $11 was not great and was not hot. The bar is pretty.
Food was not as good as last time.
