The one I tried was dark chocolate with 72%. Friendly helpful staff. Rang me out in no time. It was on the busier side when we were there on a Saturday but the line moved fast. Stop in to find your flavor.

    After our dim sum lunch, we were heading to a couple of bakeries in Chinatown Square with our…read moreAmerican friend.  The friend spotted Ichiban Candy and Snacks and would like to check it out.  So, we all did. There was an extensive variety of candy and snacks from Japan and Asia, so colorful and attractive.  The store was quite busy even at 3 pm on a Friday.  I truly felt like a kid in a candy store, happy but a little overwhelmed. There were not just candy and sweets, I saw some traditional Chinese dried fruits, such as dried plums, which are very salty.  Candied fruits called Tanghulu and some fruit-shaped ice cream are interesting. Our friend is familiar with Asian food.  She happily showed me a bag of Japanese rice cake and other snacks that she was going to buy.  The cashier checkout is at the end of the store, which is a bit unusual.  The checkout process seemed efficient and friendly. Since I was planning to shop for baked goods, I didn't purchase anything this time. But I will definitely return and spend more time exploring the store. There is so much to see, and I'm sure there will be something appealing for everyone.

This is not my first time here. Parking is a pain because it's located downtown but you can utilize the parking structure nearby. They add a 20% fee on your bill, no tipping. My first visit was in Vegas years back and really loved it there. FOOD Ordered the rainbow sliders and they taste great to me. I added some bbq sauce as always with any burger. Great portions. Also ordered the Smash Burger. WELL I will return anytime.

The TVs also show nothing else but self promotion of celebrities visiting various Sugar Factory locations. Their other theme is attention-grabbing shakes and desserts. Ones that BEG others to "Look at me!" (and order one for themselves...). We partook because, well, "When in Rome!" And, honestly, it had some fun to it. The food wasn't half bad and neither were the shakes we had. The portions were decent but prices were inflated. We didn't buy-in fully but we still enjoyed our meal and didn't regret the visit (just not sure we'd be back to this one trick pony).
