Belgian chocolatier serves ganaches, truffles, caramels, pralines, butter creams, more. Also, fresh pastries and unique coffee and espresso drinks.
Editor's Tips
- What to Drink:
- The house specialty mocha is made with a gourmet melted chocolate base, rather than chocolate syrup.
- Know Before You Go:
- There are a small selection of sugar free chocoloates available.

Leonidas Santa Monica Promenade
by terryleexyz at Citysearch
I have tried several times to visit this store and they were always closed. Unlike most stores, their hours are not posted anywhere that I can see. Also, when I have tried to phone them, there is no answer and no message with information as to when they are open. Very annoying.
- Cons: Not very customer friendly
Worst Chocolate Experience...ever..on Santa Monica's Prominade
by arcangel01 at Citysearch
Avoid this place at all cost!
I had a terrible experience while visiting Santa Monica on vacation!
I wanted to buy my Girlfriend something nice for a Pre Valentines Day celebration while on vacation.
Not only was the staff unhelpful, but I found them to be lazy and to have a serious attitude problem when all I wanted to do was purchase 2 Chocolate covered Strawberries.
Sentances like...."Yeah I guess" "Uh, yeah I guess so" and "whatever" are totally unacceptable when speaking with a customer who needed help.
Funny thing too...after I told my girlfriend about the attitude and blatant unfriendliness and unprofessionalisim I had encountered? She mentioned that she and her girlfriends had also recieved similar bad attitudes when attempting to make a purchase in that same store!
It's a shame too, since I work for a travelling Website and I plan to mention to my CoWorkers and friends to never visit this place while in Santa Monica
Thankfully....I found a Godiva Chocolate Store that was way more helpful to my needs
