Je voudrais une gaufre, s’il vous plaît means “I would like a waffle, please”. You have met je voudrais in a coffee order; now transfer it to a new situation. Learn it as a polite phrase without studying the entire conditional tense.
For a topping: avec du chocolat means “with chocolate”; without it: sans chocolat. There is no article after sans here. Gaufre is feminine: une gaufre.
If the question is too fast, reuse last week’s request: Vous pouvez répéter ?. Then give your choice: Sans chocolat, merci. First understand, then confirm.
