Chocobar Cortés

"Themed menus based around specific ingredients often read like Iron Chef challenges. But at Chocobar Cortés—a Mott Haven outpost from a fourth-generation Puerto Rican chocolate company—the chocolate-centric menu feels fun. There’s a club sandwich on chocolate mallorca bread, a grilled cheese with chocolate butter, and even something called a Chocoburger. Be sure to order something from the extensive hot chocolate menu. The Puerto Rican dark hot chocolate (served with cheese) is worth a visit all on its own." - team infatuation

"This family-owned business in Mott Haven weaves chocolate into almost every dish. From a chocolate grilled cheese to a chocolate old-fashioned cocktail, this establishment is a go-to for any chocolate enthusiast or someone seeking out authentic Caribbean cuisine." - Nicholas Hernandez

"If the most romantic thing you and your partner have done lately is watching Love is Blind in each other's sweats, it’s time for an actual date night (for you and for our girl Deepti). Chocobar Cortes is hosting a sexy-as-hell Noche de Salsa on Thursday with salsa music, a dance floor, and an all-chocolate menu. After a few choco-martinis, you’ll both be gushing about how you would have totally fallen in love with each other through a wall. Make sure to RSVP. Spots fill up fast." - neha talreja

"Themed menus based around specific ingredients often read like Iron Chef challenges. But at Chocobar Cortés—a Mott Haven spot with bright yellow walls and black and white checkered floors—the chocolate-centric menu feels fun. There’s a club sandwich on chocolate mallorca bread, a grilled cheese with chocolate butter, and even something called a Chocoburger. Be sure to take advantage of the extensive hot chocolate menu. The Puerto Rican 80% dark version (served with cheese) is worth a visit all on its own." - Kenny Yang, Carina Finn Koeppicus, Neha Talreja, Bryan Kim, Hannah Albertine
