The Golden Pod Chocolate - Orlando

I booked twice in this restaurant, both of them I drove there. it is 40 miles per way from my house, only to find them closed, although their website frankly said and they also have a reservation on open table. I would not recommend this device because they are obviously not very reliable

I’ll just start by saying that I don’t typically review restaurants nor do I walk out of restaurants after I have placed my order but I feel like the reviews for this place can be misleading. I really wanted to check this place out because of all the hype surrounding it. The pictures of the food and restaurant in general looked great. But my experience was horrible. The waitress started by saying that they were out of a handful of key ingredients which greatly decreased our menu options. I then asked if I could have a selfie latte which I thought was pretty cool but she then informed me that the machine was broken. So we all asked for regular coffee’s, a round of waters, and placed our breakfast order. We got 3 waters for the adults and the 2 toddlers that were with us, got nothing. We sat for about 40 minutes and received nothing else. There was one waitress in the restaurant with three tables. One party was huge and I could understand she may have had a difficult time serving everyone but what I don’t understand is why she was the only person in the entire restaurant on a Sunday during prime brunch hours. I cannot speak for the food because we decided to leave after we sat for such a long time with two hungry toddlers but I can say that the service was horrible and I will not be going back here.

I was seated quickly and our food came out in an orderly time frame. I loved the coffee and the service was food. The food tasted and looked fresh and had a presentable look to the dish. We loved it all and will be back.

Worst place bartender and waitress had no clue what Jameson was they didn’t even have a decent selection of beer service was poor and when we left to go elsewhere we were hounded to stay and then called rude as we left because of their lack of as a restaurant! Never again will we go there !!!

It took a while for anyone in the restaurant to notice we were there. It was a little difficult to communicate with our server as she did not speak English very well. Aside from that, the food and drinks were pretty good.
