Get ready to see a familiar eatery on America's Best Restaurants! Sweetopia Emporium in Marion has been selected to be featured in an episode!
According to the official website, America's Best Restaurants is "on a mission to feature the best independent restaurants in the USA and help you tell your story like never before." Restaurants have to apply to be featured in an episode, which are then posted on the company's social media channels.

Visit our boutique and explore new seasonal flavors and perennial favorites. We offer 100% premium Belgium chocolate in all of our handmade chocolates, freshly made pastries, and custom cakes."
