I loved the concept of Sweet Republic- everything homemade to include the ice cream, the marshmallow, the waffle cones, the everything. Unfortunately, I wasn't overly impressed with the ice cream. I got the Belgium chocolate and it wasn't as rich and the waffle cone not as crunchy as I was expecting and wanting. Instead it sort of crumbled in my mouth. The thing I did really love about this place was the portion. I asked for two scoops and quickly realized they give two full scoops, not two half scoops like most ice cream parlors do.
