Dallas restaurant Sugar Factory American Brasserie closed after service on Aug. 4, 2024.

The Las Vegas-born restaurant and dessert shop served the most over-the-top desserts Dallas had ever seen, we wrote when it opened in 2021. One such dessert was a sundae with nearly two-dozen scoops of ice cream. The World Famous Sugar Factory King Kong Sundae, as it’s called, had a $99 price tag and served 12 people.

Many of Sugar Factory’s other desserts were milkshakes, each about $15, piled high with whipped cream, lollipops and sprinkles.

Despite the eye-catching sweets, Sugar Factory was also part restaurant, part club. America’s Got Talent and Masked Singer TV host Nick Cannon performed a DJ set at the opening party in November 2021.

Menu items included a burger crusted in Flamin’ Hot Cheetos and sliders with rainbow-colored buns. The cocktails were large, like the goblets filled with tropical punches, each priced at about $50.

Some of the drinks were “designed and tasted” by celebrities Guy Fieri, Sammy Hagar and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, according to a Sugar Factory news release.
