Excellent service and yummy candies! Mahalo See's Pearlridge. We got more than we needed because everything looks so good and free sampos then shared with family. The boxes make cute gifts! read more

This is the best place for anyone who loves good quality chocolate. These are my all time favorite. The cost has increased a lot but it is so worth it. Anyone who receives Sees as a gift will know they are very special. Also, bring your husband to get a freebie! read more

Appreciate See's Candies in Pearlridge Center Had a hankering for a sweet treat and remembered that I had a couple of gift certificates that needed to be redeemed (before I misplace or totally firget about them lol). Find See's on street level in the center of Pearlridge Mauka (formerly known as Uptown) near the escalators, across Starbuck's. This visit was long overdue. Stepping inside the store instantly brought back many happy memories of gift boxes filled with nuts and chews or molasses chips. Picked their dark chocolate truffles which were yummy! The helpful and welcoming staff members definitely make you want to return! read more

Long time favorite candy store. Wonderful selection of delectable treats. My personal favorites include the Nuts and Chews Assorted Box, Almond Royal, and love those Lollipops. They still let you have a sample of candy when you visit. read more

See's Candies - Front entrance - Candy Stores Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Growing up I used to hear "Nothing in life is free." Maybe true elsewhere but not at See's. Doc had included a variety of sweets from here in our Easter goody parcel. SO yummy. Okay I need a little Look See for an event. The Pearl ridge shop on the lower level, Macy's side but by the escalators and elevators. I saw one worker dressed like they did probably half a century ago: white uniform reminded me of the box or package that had an elderly lady on their packaging. I asked do you sell lollipops in bulk? She showed me where the 12 pack and 30 count box was a few feet away. Ooh, assortment is good( my favorite is the chocolate one.) She offered me a FREE piece of candy asking milk or dark? Trying to be healthy( not cuz I adore milk chocolate) but I said dark. She offered a buttercream piece. If I return I need to think fast and ask may I have a sugar free one? Just then a woman dressed with a baboushka head wear entered with 3 children and each got a FREE piece then walked out the door without purchasing anything. Hmmm I decided to ask may I have one for my husband? My purchase was over $30 so I asked. She replied must be present to get a candy. I told her, aww he's waiting in the car(I wasn't kidding.) Well next time he needs to come into the store she said kinda grudgingly giving me one for him too. Yikes. I chewed off the outer covering of dark chocolate like a little ferret then opala(trash) the buttercream since I WAS trying to watch the sugar intake. read more

See's Candies - a little something sweet - Candy Stores Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

See's Candies delivers with old fashioned chocolates exploding with deliciousness in every bite.

Love See's candies! One of my favorite chocolates!! Must haves: milk chocolate coconut, almond milk bars, rocky road (reminds me of my mom- this was her favorite and the reason why I love see's candy!) I also love the FREE samples! My kids love the lollipops & coin milk chocolate candy. Never a disappointment & always consistent. Today a sweet lady named Sandra took our order. She was super nice, friendly, welcoming & gave us great suggestions. Mahalo Sandra! read more

The store experience was great; well-stocked, clean and great customer service. The missing stars is due to a disappointing product. I picked up 3 different boxes of chocolates for a visit with family on Big island, and got a small box of "Assorted little Pops" for myself ($80+ total). Haven't had a See's lollipop in decades and looked forward to revisiting the flavors. Photo is of the Little Pops contents. Only 3 pieces of Butterscotch, one odd x-small chocolate, and wrapper at the bottom is filled only with air - no candy in it! read more

Received a 2 lb. box of mixed chocolates for Mother's Day with just the mix I requested. My husband didn't think the would do it but See's and I go way back and I knew they would. The mix of dark chocolates and bridge mix was perfect. read more

I went to buy myself Valentine's day candy since i don't have a valentine to get me any so best to get it during the after valentine's day sale. I was having a bad day. One of those stressful days where everyone starts irritating you I was already grouchy when i entered the store. In addition i was losing my patience with the customer in front of me taking "years" to figure out what she's buying while shes in front of the register then taking forever to get her wallet or whatever out, then debating if she really should buy this or that not caring about people waiting behind her. I was annoyed everyone in line and the store was offered a sample but me. Then came this kind employee lady who offered to help me at the other register. She turned my frowns into laughter, kindness and I left happy! I wish i got her name, she was an older lady w short brown hair. She was so friendly and I was finally able to get my chocolate sample from her. We had a fun discussion over milk or dark chocolate, how i eat lots of dark cuz it's healthy right? She was just so friendly that I left the store that day w a smile and my entire day was brightened! I ended up buying some awesome dark chocolate peanut butter heart truffles and deep dark heart truffles at 25% off for the after valentine's day sale. It was a win win experience. I got my valentine's day chocolate and left w such a cheerful experience from the employee working here. Will be back for sure! read more

Service is great and they offer free samples. Chocolate is very good . They have a great Variety of candies. read more

I've never really had the urge to buy expensive chocolate. I'm not much of a chocolate fanatic, but people I know go crazy for sees candy and spend a lot of money here haha. It must be good. Just kidding, I know it's good and have tried all kinds of things from here, but yeah I don't think I have the chocolate sweet tooth. My Aunty is one of those fanatic people. We came at 7:58 to get sees chocolate because they were closing at 8 and we needed to get some before having dinner elsewhere in the mall. I honestly had a hard time remembering where sees even was because it's so low on my radar. Anyway, we get there and the girl working is kinda cleaning up and we nicely ask if it's ok to buy something really quick. She kind of reluctantly says yes and proceeds to help my Aunty get a box of chocolate. It was definitely our bad for coming in late, but the worker was so nice and even gave all of us free samples. Another customer rushed in as we were checking out and they still helped her too even though they were a bit more reluctant to. It can get quite expensive choosing different chocolates from the display case. I always feel like I'm in an old timey candy shop like the ones in Willy wonka when I come here lol. I do enjoy the lollipops every now and then and I will have a piece of chocolate from a box if someone offers. It is really delicious, it's just not my thing :) read more

See's is our favorite off diet holiday treat. I visited the Pearlridge location as soon they opened at 10:00am on a Tuesday in early December. There was already a steady flow of customers and even the parking lot closest to this side of the mall was filling up fast when I arrived at 9:30am. The young lady helping me was super sweet. However, she appeared new at her job so it took extra time for her to pack (2) 1# custom mix, (1) 1/2# custom mix and a 1# can of Almond Royale. She did her best, but unfortunately, overlooked a few important details such as the iconic sticker seals, gold ribbon, labeling each custom box to identify its contents. Luckily, she was eager to learn when I pointed everything out to her. One small disappointment is that she was so preoccupied with packing my order that she didn't offer any samples like other sales associates usually do, especially since it took her more than 35 minutes from start to finish. I know! But we've all been new at a job at one time or another. No matter what, I have to give this shop 5-stars. By the way, it might be my imagination, but for some reason, the Pearlridge store seems to have a lot more variety in the 8 oz. Grab-n-Go bags which are a slightly better value. read more

Candy is way over priced, now it's $37/pound. Won't be buying chocolate there anymore

Love See's candies a couple of my favorites are the scotch mallow (marshmallow, caramel & covered with chocolate) & walnut square (chocolate layered with pieces of walnuts and caramel.) .

Upcoming is National lollipop day on July 20, 2021. - I always enjoy that extra piece of chocolate.

Welcome sweet tooth. Who doesn't like candy? Well maybe Wilbur. Ooh who can get that reference? Hummm maybe Carmen? The place has it all from chocolate pieces to chocolate bars. You can stretch out taffy, you can munch on peanut brittle and you can find out how many lick it takes to get to the center of a toot......oops that's a commercial, I mean they sell lollipops. Individually or in a lollipop bunch. And for some strange coincidence they even have the occasional sugar free. Granted See's is so popular, you can grab their candy anywhere but at the store everything is nicely displayed and you can choose what pieces to put in a box. (Half pound box holds 12-13 pieces) And the plus side is you get a free piece of candy at checkout. Like how you use to get a free cookie at Safeway. I know you read that review. Overall five stars, staff is nothing but the greatest and who doesn't like chocolate. Well maybe a certain dentist. It's a pricey treat but an occasional splurge is good for the soul. Now excuse me, I'm eyeing these chocolate covered coffee beans. M read more

Candy's are top quality and they always give samples. Also they have limited edition candy that's a must try.

Located on the first floor in uptown, it's near the center court and easy to find. Due to COVID they only allow 9 customers in the store at a time so it can create a line outside. We were the only ones in line and waited about 5 minutes. The selection seemed less than normal but it could be because it's close to Easter and a lot of people were purchasing the boxed candies. The lollipops sold individually were limited in flavors so we got the box assortment instead. They still offer a free sample of chocolate but it comes individually wrapped now. They wipe down the counter after each customer. Staff are attentive and friendly. read more

See's Candies - Candy Stores Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

$36.20 a pound. So expensive...but so good and worth it! (sorry, forgot to take pics) I was good this year, got there one week before Valentine's Day so it was nice and mellow. I got about a pound of the Dark Patties and Dark Butterchews. We love our darks and caramels. Lynn was very helpful, she said actually See's has one of the cheaper 'per pound' prices for chocolates. So just splurge once in a while, take slow bites, and enjoy! read more

With Godiva closing all locations in Hawaii, where could I possibly get my next chocolate truffle fix? See's Candies is my new favorite chocolate shop! My favorite is the rocky road truffle with marshmallows and raspberry chocolate truffle, soo yummy. For 12 pieces at Godiva you'd pay 30$+, for 16 pieces here, I only paid 21$, WHAT A DEAL! Shoulda came here sooner! The price depends on the weight of the truffles so keep that in mind, but you can give the workers a budget and they will do anything they can to help you fit that budget. The store with its white walls gives that clean fresh welcoming feeling when you walk in. Come here for your next chocolate fix, or an affordable Valentine's Day gift for that special someone read more

Decided to treat myself to some dark chocolate and milk chocolate molasses chips. I'm so glad I don't have buy the big box!

While this wasn't my first time shopping here, this was the first time making an assorted box of chocolates mainly for myself. The worker was great in being patient as I made my selections since I kinda took a while reading the descriptions of majority of the chocolates. She was also great in answering questions that I had. Definitely will be back again. read more

I have a son who buys whatever he wants whenever he wants. I'm always in a quandary when it comes to buying him gifts. One of his Christmas presents this year is seven pounds of hand picked chocolates in a five pound box! Luckily diabetes doesn't run in the family because he is definitely a sweets eater. I went to the Pearlridge Mall as soon as the store opened at 10:00AM and explained that I wanted a five pound box and would select the contents. I knew exactly what he would like and informed the sweet worker we would duplicate the bottom and top layers and off we went. Luckily they weren't yet busy so as the box filled we joked and popped chocolates like old friends. When we were finished and to her surprise the box weighed in at 6.98 pounds! I wasn't as surprised as she was because instead of pieces of Rocky Road and Fudge I asked for the bars as they usually cut them into pieces. Plus, the candy was way higher then the edge of the box. So...how do you get seven pounds of candy in a five pound box? Go to See's! Great customer service and free treats just for being there. read more

See's candies are so rich, delicious, and satisfying. It's a delight to select our favorites in their old-time candy store. We have enjoyed See's tradition of quality for decades. read more

This particular See's Candies store has been in the same spot in Uptown Pearlridge for as long as I can remember. The employees are always warm and inviting and their store is always filled with chocolates for any chocolate lover. I have many favorites like their almond truffle, dark chocolate w/walnuts, dark chocolate w/almonds, their peanut brittle bar and their café latte and chocolate lollypops. On my past trip here, they had so many cute Halloween treats so of course I had to buy a lot to take back to Maui with me. As soon as you enter See's you are greeted and offered samples. Yes please! I love See's Candies. I wish we had a permanent one on Maui at Queen Ka'ahumanu Mall or Maui Mall. We have seasonal ones that open at the mall and the gift shop at Maui Memorial Hospital sells their lollypops but we need a permanent store. Until then, those of us who no longer live on Oahu will have to either order online or shop when we are on island and pack them in our luggage lol. Check it out! read more

The customer service is awesome,please try it out and it's really good,you may not regret it

The Covid 19 wait times to get into smaller stores are exceptionally long. Especially during holidays. I didn't move in line for about 20 mins and had to give up as I was on my lunch break. I came back later after work though. I waited a little while again but not as bad. When I got in they didn't have the premade nuts and chewy box I wanted but made it for me from the chocolates on hand and though they didn't have all the items they filled it with others. It was on 12/23 and the staff was still friendly and energetic. Love Sees Candy read more

I had to write a review for See's candy because of their consistency with their customer service over the years. They always greet you as soon as you enter their store. They always offer complimentary chocolate although now I have to refuse due to aging. But they're persistent that you get a sample. Sometimes they win. They always let you know their current special like a good sales person should. They're doing their job. On my recent visit here, I've discovered they have fundraiser. How smart! I can only eat so many zippy's chili and pizza hut. read more

See's Candies - They do fundraiser - Candy Stores Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

I remember See's Candies from Kahala Mall back in the 70's and See's is still one of my favorite places to go when I have a craving for one of their lollipops or a box of chocolate for a special gift. Their stores are always spotless and inviting, and I have yet to walk into any See's location and not be warmly greeted by the staff. I don't know how See's does it, but they have a knack for hiring some of the best customer service people I've ever met. Whether you buy nothing, a single lollipop, or a box of chocolate you won't leave without being offered a free sample. In fact, you barely get both feet in the store and an employee is offering a sample. What better way to get you in the mood to buy something then with a See's goodie melting in your mouth. There's a special sweet treat here to satisfy everyone's taste buds. read more

I don't know if you're like me, but if I'm in Pearlridge... we'll always stop by. Especially after a meal, having a sweet treat is the best! I love the fact that I can just have one piece of candy. If I'm feeling like a sucker, I can pick up a lollipop. If I feel like a nut, I can have an almond cluster. For every visitor, the employees will offer a sample. It's a great way to get acquainted with the different candies offered and possibly find your new favorite. The only drawback for me will always be the price. The reason I normally only have a piece of candy is because they are weighed. The more you pick, the higher the bill. So that's a good and bad I guess. Good way to keep moderation in mind, bad because sometimes your sweet tooth can't be satisfied by one piece. read more

Everytime I come here the service is excellent! I never feel rushed no matter how busy it is. The ladies are all very nice and my son just loves the free sample! read more

One of my favorite places for chocolates. There's one in most major malls. I happen to like the Pearlridge location since it's near home and conveniently located. This location is in the uptown Mall on the ground level. It is near the center, where the escalators are located. My favorite part is when I walk in and am greeted with a sample. Nothing makes me smile more than some chocolate! And free is always good. Today I went in to see if they had any specials. They had percent off Valentines arrangements. There's also some Easter decor and St Patrick's day themed chocolates. I love how simple their packagings are and how festive they make their seasonal gifts. They have the St Patrick's Potato and a mint scotchmallow. I came in for their chocolates though. So I got me a few items. One of my favorites is Normandie. If you're near or around the area, stop by for a sample and a few delectables. There's always a reason for See's candies! read more

Perfect delicious! Eric and co-workers were so friendly, greeting me with samples and Aloha! Got my favorite Apple Pie Truffle 1/2 pound box and got to try the Dark Chocolate Chip Truffle! Heard the Peanut Butter Football truffles are coming out tomorrow which I'm Excited about! Mahalo! read more

Absolutely love Candies! It was on my bucket list to do a photo shoot there since it's my name same and the employees there were kind enough to allow it happen. I love their outfits and the ambience, the assortment chocolate will not disappoint you and the staff is super friendly and kind and if you are lucky you can taste a few samples from the staff to point you in the right direction from all of the choices. read more

Super friendly staff. I love the sample given and the savings, versus using the online app that charges so much for shipping.

You can always count on See's Candies to deliver the goods, (almost) 365 days of the year. Yep...its as good as it gets: you get a chocolate or sugar-sweet attack and need your fix. You can either dig into a box of generic chocolate covered mac nuts or you can head to See's to get a nice, big fat fix on your favorite drugs of choice: - Key Lime Truffle = AMAZING!!! (SORRY FOR SHOUTING). If you like limes, key limes or just key lime truffles, you MUST try this truffle encased in white chocolate heav. You'll be glad you did. I am sorry I do not have the price because to me, price is of no concern when it comes to Key Lime Truffles. I tend to buy then devour on the scene. Cash register receipts and all other wrappers are dutifully thrown into trash receptacle. - Apple Pie Truffle = SCREAM!!! (SORRY FOR SCREAMING). Oh my oh my...so good!! The Apple Pie Truffle does taste like a piece of apple pie encrusted in creamy, silky chocolate with a hint of cinnamon. This is great with a cup of nice hot coffee. - Lemon Truffle = If I had any vocal cords left, I'd be screaming again. Rich lemony chiffon buttercream encased in silky, sensuous chocolate. The flavor of the lemon is really intense, but not overpowering. - Pumpkin Pie Truffle = This is one of my favorites, but it seems to be a seasonal item. GET IT when you see it...absolutely fabulous!! Tastes like a rich pumpkin cream speckled with nutmeg and cloves. So enough about the wonderful truffles. I could shoot See's truffles into my veins and hallucinate about world peace and drool in happiness but the reason I give this particular See's at Pearlridge a 5-star is the good service we consistently get, no matter how crowded or busy. We went last week before St. Patrick's Day was in full swing and it was crowded on a weekend but we got our obligatory "HI! Would you like to try a sample?" and a smile along with our sample(s) of chocolates. My son did not want to have anything to do with Truffles. All he was interested in was the chocolate coins in a mesh bag ($3.95-ish). That was a small price to pay for some moments of peace. This is the closest See's Candies location that is convenient to me and I've been coming to this store for many years and I'm looking forward to the Fall season when I can get my Pumpkin Pie Truffles again. I wonder if they freeze well? read more

For years, my parents have occasionally stopped by See's Candy to buy my sister & I lollipop's or chocolate coins as kids, as if taking us shopping at Pearlridge wasn't enough. I always took note of my parent's favorite chocolates, Coconut Special and Cashew Brittle. They weren't big on sweets but would cave in for See's chocolate. Now that I am older, when in the Pearlridge area, I pick my parents up some of their favorites to bring over when I visit. The services here is impeccable. The staff are always friendly and knowledgeable. They usually have full-sized "samples"! And the prices are very reasonable and affordable for the quality chocolate you're purchasing. See's Candy carries childhood memories for me, and therefore will always have a special place in my heart. read more

I have to admit, the free sample when you come in is what brings me into this place but the customer service is what keeps me inside and gets me to buy. The workers here are so friendly and helpful. They are very knowledgeable and try to help you, rather than just try selling things to you. This location by far has the best customer service. I remember coming here when I was a little girl and I loved to get the lollipops. They always have cute boxes and decorated boxes for each of the seasons and holidays. Easter has some very cute stuff. I recommend the awesome bars and the assortment of little pops(butterscotch, chocolate, etc). The chocolate here is good, it's not too rich or bland an the prices are moderate too. It's the perfect in between of Godiva and Hershey! ^_^*~ read more

See's Candies - September 2011 - Candy Stores Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

See all

I've probably been to this Pearlridge See's Candies the most because I grew up going to Pearlridge (it was closer than Ala Moana), and whenever I hit up this mall, I still drop by See's for my free sample. This store has definitely gotten more crowded over the years. Sometimes I go in specifically to buy a product, but other times, I just go in to peruse the seasonal selection. When the store is super busy, don't count on receiving a free sample unless you are in line and waiting to purchase something. Or, if you're lucky, there'll be a roaming employee who you could flag down. It seems that this location in particular likes to offer the nutty candies right off the bat when it comes to free samples, but since I don't like nuts, the employees have always been accommodating in getting me something more basic (one of the pure milk or dark chocolate buttercreams, for instance) to taste. While this location is hit-or-miss when it comes to service (depending on how busy they are), I can usually find everything that I need. Here's what I would recommend: "Peanut Butter Pattie": If Reese's Peanut Butter Cups were flattened out, they would result in See's Peanut Butter Pattie. If I'm getting just a few treats from See's, I usually go for the Milk Bordeaux and these peanut butter patties. The feature smooth, old-fashioned peanut butter with powdered sugar covered in milk chocolate. Though I feel like the peanut butter taste in these candies is not as strong as they are in Reese's, the creamy peanut butter and velvety milk chocolate combo is still delightful ... one of my favorites. "Pecan Bud": I haven't tried this treat yet, but I'm sure I'll like it because it includes pecans. This "bud" features pecan halves with buttery caramel covered with smooth milk chocolate. I don't like most of the nuts featured at See's, but pecans are okay on my list. Plus, this pecan comes covered with a luscious caramel-and-milk chocolate blend ... couldn't ask for anything better! "Milk Buttercream": I think I like milk chocolate and dark chocolate equally, and this buttercream is one of the staples at See's. It features a buttery, creamy soft center with a touch of vanilla, covered in smooth milk chocolate. The center of this buttercream treat makes it perfect -- the slight vanilla taste offsets the otherwise decadent chocolate flavoring perfectly. "Dark Buttercream": I think I've gotten this candy as a sample before--numerous times, in fact--but I've never actually ordered the chocolate itself. It features a buttery, creamy soft center with a touch of vanilla, enrobed in rich dark chocolate. I like the slight hint of vanilla that's included in this treat, and I love the dark chocolate envelope. If you're looking for something that's simpler but still features a sweet, creamy center, this buttercream is the perfect choice. "Mocha": I haven't ordered this coffee-inspired treat yet, but I plan to someday. It includes a creamy center flavored with coffee and cream covered in smooth milk chocolate and decorated with chocolate sprinkles. The description reminds me of the "Double Chocolaty Chip" frapp that I get from time to time at Starbucks because this treat features both chocolate and coffee. I'm sure I'll like this combo, especially with my favorite milk chocolate sprinkles on the exterior. "Dark Pattie": Though I haven't tried this patty yet, its contents definitely make it sound enticing. It features rich chocolate caramel with a touch of vanilla and covered in rich dark chocolate. Yum! I like caramel but I don't like it enough to get a treat composed entirely of caramel, so this chocolate-caramel mix--with a dash of vanilla flavor--sounds divine. "Normandie": This is one of my mom's favorites, and I always remember it because of its unique name. This sweet treat features a creamy soft center with roasted California almonds and special vanilla covered in rich dark chocolate. My mom likes the texture of the California almonds and the sweet vanilla-dark chocolate combo. While she doesn't prefer nuts as a whole, she likes the almonds in this chocolate treat and says that the dark chocolate exterior doesn't make the candy super sweet. "Marshmallow Goodies": During Halloween, Valentine's Day, the summer and Christmas, See's features marshmallow treats in the specific shapes (Jack 'O Lanterns, hearts, beach balls, Christmas trees, etc.). Whenever these treats are in season, I'm always sure to get one for my grandma because these are her favorite snacks. They include fluffy honey marshmallow that's drenched in layers of smooth milk chocolate. My grandma really likes the marshmallow treats from See's because of their puffy marshmallow layer that's balanced perfectly by the milk chocolate exterior. I'm not a huge fan of marshmallow, but I'm always on the lookout for these treats for grandma. read more
