You can tell because it says “cuisine.” There was a time when tossing in a French word elevated a thing from the ordinary. Ironically, this is really an old-style red-sauce Italian restaurant with checkered tablecloths. The menu’s not nouveau at all, but leans toward spaghetti and meatballs and pizza pie.

At the Chocolate Room, 269 Court Street, you can get your goodies to go, or sit at a table and eat your chocolates, cake and other desserts washed down with wine or coffee. The front case looks as if it should hold jewelry, and I have an urge to whisper when I walk in the door. It’s a little twee, but chances are, one day I’ll get a chocolate jones and find myself sitting at a table wondering why I hadn’t done so earlier.
