Had an amazing time went there just to celebrate a birthday and truly had an amazing time! Ice cream sundae was amazing! So many things in it! Got the $60 one (not on menu ask about it ;) ) with birthday song! Was able to share with the group. The song on the speakers, they let me pick a song that was not available and we just had a ball. Super nice people. Everything was amazing! Will recommend for sure

Being that the name is "Sugar Factory", I expected for all the personnel to be sweeter, but that was not my experience. Except for the ladies at the entrance, found everyone else unfriendly. Price for fancy drinks is excessive and was extremely disappointed with the quality of the food; French onion soup was very salty and bland. Cesar salad was drowned in dressing that was also salty and lettus were welted. Was there to celebrate my nice's birthday and noted it on my reservation, but waitress never mentioned any thing about it. Anoyed by all the pictures photographer tried to push on us.

Didn’t love the vibe. Service started out very slow. Dirty dishes sat on our table for awhile afterwards. Not cheap dinner either!!

I wish it was like the others, I went for the experience of what I was told and it wasn’t like that. Other than that it was fun.

This would be a great place for a family with kids. However, it’s quite expensive and the food is only so-so. I’m sure kids love it though.
