Little-Italy Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie

Desserts & Sweets Chocolaterie Crêpes Salads Juice Bar & Smoothies Café

Review Summary

Overall, reviews describe Juliette & Chocolat as a cozy, family friendly spot with a lively chocolate cafe vibe, where generous dessert portions especially crepes, brownies, and the chocolate fondant draw crowds and keep the focus on sweet treats; the atmosphere is frequently praised for being welcoming with kid friendly touches, while service is noted as friendly and efficient when not understaffed; however, some readers find the menu skewed toward sugar with limited main dishes and a few items that disappoint due to overly sweet chocolate or questionable quality; value opinions vary with some noting higher prices and smaller portions after changes in ownership; at least one comment calls out a design in the women’s restroom that could be offensive; despite these critiques, the place remains a popular destination for dessert lovers and a good spot to share a treat with friends or family.View restaurant profile
