San Antonio
On the River Walk at 849 East Commerce Street, inside the Shops at Rivercenter, Sugar Factory San Antonio is a marquee room set against the water. Tufted banquettes, metro tile, and chandeliers frame a full-size tree flocked in white, while a wall of pink roses carries the neon line “All You Need Is Love.” The patio keeps a floral ceiling and a view of the walk. The menu moves from burgers, salads, and pasta to a smoking candy goblet and a milkshake in a chocolate-covered mug, then gives the finish to the King Kong Sundae, 24 scoops dressed in gummy bears, caramel, fudge, and giant swirl pops for a table of twelve. It is the River Walk with the sweet course promoted, built for a celebration that wants the lights on.
