L’arvine Flowers & Chocolatier

Fantastic one stop shop for Valentines Day! The prices are reasonable and the service superb at this combined choclatier and florist. I’ll be back again!

I ordered a cognac and bridal tray for my best friend’s wedding and they were beautiful! Maral was very pleasant to work with. The prices were reasonable and the arrangements were fresh. I recommend this shop!

I have them a try for my nephew’s wife’s baby shower and they really did a nice job. The small baggies of white chocolate candies that we have out as party favors were delicious and they made a point to create then exactly as my wife and I requested. I will use them again this thanksgiving when we host the entire family. They are a clean shop with very friendly service. Try em.

Got two beautiful pre-​made bouquets for Mother’s Day. They are still alive and kicking a week later. Very accommodating, polite, helpful and honest. I will be returning here when I need flowers again!

This place was one of the appsolut 5 star place it had great deals and pretty flowers I loved their chocolate especially the dark chocolate they helped my friend make a beautiful wedding I HIGHLY RECCOMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE WHO NEEDS STUFF DONE

L’arvine Flowers & Chocolatier is by far the best florist in Pasadena. They have a great selection of fresh, beautiful floral arrangements already made for any occasion as well as delicious chocolates! Maral and her daughter Arvine gave me outstanding service. They are extremely warm and inviting! What a great family run business, I highly recommend them!

I gave this Flower shop a chance this Valentines day and was extremely disappointed. I ordered pionese flowers for my wife over the phone 3 weeks ahead of time to make sure of the arrival. The owner took down the wrong phone number so I did not receive a call stating they could not get the burgundy color I requested.
I am a very easy going guy and never write bad reviews but this was beyond me. I showed up valentines morning at 830 like I had explained to the owner to pick up the flowers. I waited and waited until 9 am when finally he was there. I told him who I was and he stated he tried to call but I didn’t pick up. I asked him what phone number he had and because of the language barrier he mistook a 9 for a 1. No big deal. I told him it was fine and that I will take the pink that he had.
My wife was leaving for work and I explained that I needed to just get the flowers and go. The flowers were not even wrapped. He stated «Just give me 5 or 10 minutes to arrange them» I said fine no problem. I waited as he answered the phone and talked to new customers that walked in. It seemed the other customers spoke his language and he treated them with more respect. I am not Armenian so I was not treated the same. Very unfortunate.
Finally I jumped and and said to him «I have to go! My wife is leaving for work!’ He said just give me two more minutes.
So he put these wilted pionese that were probably sitting around for a week in some half ass arrangement and cheap vase. I paid 104.92 over the phone 3 weeks prior. He then came out and said «Ok that will be 85.00» Unbelievable, not only did he treat me with no respect he overcharged me and forgot I already paid. He then had this look in his eye like «oh S@#!. I told him I already paid over the phone with a credit card for the amount of 104.92 and he had nothing to say. I took the flowers and left.
Horrible business, horrible salesmanship!!!
I will never be back and beware if you have an important event. If you are not High on his list you will be treated like a number. I have had better service from 1800 flowers.

I first visited L’arvine a year ago when I was looking for a flower arrangement for my mothers birthday. To my surprise I walked in and saw a set of beautiful fresh made arrangements, sitting ready to be picked. I recently went back to Maral, at L’arvine to order two flower arrangements (sini’s) for an Armenian wedding I was standing Maid of Honor for, and was completely in awe over her work. I let her know the style the bride requested, and not only did she manage to make it precisely what the bride and I imagined, she made it even more beautiful. One of the baskets held the brides shoe, perfume, makeup, bag and veil… which she beautifully wrapped individually in silk fabric and placed it in the chest next to her floral arrangement, the other was a two tower (flowers on top and chocolate and Brandy on the bottom. All in all I would highly recommend anybody and everybody to stop by for all of their floral needs. The best part is, she always has fresh ready made arrangements for those of us «last minute» shoppers ;) Thanks again Maral, can’t wait to come back.

L’arvine has, by far, the best chocolates I have ever had!!! The owners are so nice and understanding. They also arrange beautiful flowers for your occasion!

I love this flower shop! I’ve gotten mother’s day flowers and birthday flowers and they’ve all looked beyond beautiful. I give them a vague idea of what i want and they just create pieces of art! Its a bit far from where i live, but they deliver which keeps me coming back to them! :)

Delicous Chocolate & beautiful Fresh Floral Arrangements! =)

I absolutely love this place! I used them for my engagement party and they did an amazing job. The centerpiece I wanted was a rose and hydrangea arrangement and they created it exactly how I envisioned… ok fine, maybe even a little better than I envisioned! :)
I also bought little chocolate party favors to pass out to all of my guests. They made little chocolates that were wrapped in the shape of a flower. Those were a big hit!
It’s so nice to come across little family-​run places that do such a professional job… Bravo to them!

Very poor service. The entire amount of the order was paid in advance but they failed to perform as promised. Unfortunately, the owner was negligent and not apologetic when asked to compete the order. I will never go back out there. LETJ
