First, let me just say that if for some reason you don't like sees candy,,,, There's something definitely wrong with you , and go and see a specialist, please... Now that we clarified that. I just wanna say that like all these locations in this place is very clean. they have "of course" the awesome selection of all the tasty treats,,, and the lady that was there when I walked in, was so nice and sweet but a little bit evil at the same time,,,, What I mean is, she kept offering ,,, check this out this is our new dark bla bla bla This is our new almond that ,,,,, our peanut that,,, and of course I had to buy it cause we can't be rude.,,,, (very good sales person) But all in all, she was just very beautiful person and yes, I came home with a lot of different types of chocolate,,,, hahahaha . See's has been and will always be one of my favorites so this place definitely gets five stars without question and if you're in the area and you love sees as much as I do , pop in grab yourself 20 pounds and then go home and lock yourself in a dark room and don't share with anybody.... . read more

See's Candies... now listen, I don't have no business being up in there, but every now and then I'll stop in and treat myself. A little piece of sweetness never hurt nobody. But let me tell you -- for a place built on chocolate, that customer service is dry as day-old pound cake. You would think a shop full of truffles and toffees would be warm, energetic, and friendly -- the kind of place where folks smile at you like they know you about to spend too much money. But no. You walk in and it feels like you're interrupting something. Half the time you're standing there waiting while they look right through you like you're part of the window display. Now the chocolate still hits, I won't lie. But the service? Whew. It could use a sprinkle of sugar and a whole lot of hospitality. See's should feel sweet from the moment you walk in. Right now, it just feels... bland. read more

I love See's candies. I needed to get some small gifts for Thanksgiving and See's never disappoints. I love that they still give samples. Yum. Adriana was very helpful tonight. read more

See's Candies - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Marina del Rey, California

See's Candies has been around forever. They have the best chocolates and they have a great selection. There is nothing not to like, unless you don't like chocolate. The service is fast and super nice. If you want they will let you try one. They have wrapped boxes for all holidays and special candy for all holidays. They have something that will fit into your budget. They also have great delivery from their website, but going there is just fun. Parking is easy and free. The store is so well stocked. They have different selections in boxes. For example, I just bought my husband a box of nuts and chews. That is his favorite. My daughter loves the Trinidads. My grandson will eat anything and is happy with everything. They are so good to kids. See's is some of the best chocolate you will find in the US. Try this one. It is lovely and again, the service makes you want to hug them. read more

AM AN ABSOLUTE FAN! Can't skip any weekend without stopping by See's Candies for my sweet treat. Their regulars are awesome and their rotational menus have been crowd pleaser. My top list will be Bridge Mix, California Crunch, Milk Almond Caramel/Square, California Brittle, Milk Peanut Butter, and omg I can keep going on. For the seasonal one, I really love the milk apple caramel with marshmallows as well as the toasted version of it. All the attendants have always been super friendly regardless the outlet I've been and having the outlets spread all across town is doubtlessly PLUS POINTS read more

Still great service!!!! This time Isabelle gave the magic. It's actually a pleasure shopping here and not just because they have lemon and lime candies!!!! read more

See's Candies - Front of store - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Marina del Rey, California

Because I haven't eaten enough chocolate in the last week, I stopped in to See's Candy today to buy some bridge mix for my mom. This is her favorite candy and is a combination of caramels, chews, and nuts in little pieces. A 1 pound box is what she gets on every holiday and she cannot wait to open it and share it with all of us. I personally love the butterscotch squares and scotch mallows and cannot wait until I get out of the store to eat them. The store is immaculate inside and the sales staff always greets you with a friendly smile and a free sample. read more

The Marina del Rey location has convenient parking, plenty of gift options which can be wrapped with a fancy ribbon upon request, and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Today, Sandra helped me purchase a lovely gift for a special someone, and was patient despite managing a busy store. Sandra was pleasant, offered samples per usual, and pointed out some quality add-on purchases upon check-out. See's Candies has been making quality chocolate and candy Mary See's way for over 95 years. From the beginning, Mary took pride in her recipes and insisted on only the finest, freshest ingredients. Today, See's is still just as committed to making candy the right way. I highly recommend this store and team - and a special Thank You to Sandra! read more

Last visit was very unpleasant. The company did reach out to me. I went back to the store and the service was much better this time. There were friendlier people working in the store and it was a much better experience. I typically love shopping at See's so I'd be happy to go back to this one in the Marina read more

Poor customer service. The individuals working the counter can't figure out how to assist the people purchasing assorted candy boxes without having a person who is at the register with one item wait indefinitely. I walked in to purchase a bag of licorice and while I was waiting to be rung up, a woman who was in the assorted candy line conveniently acknowledged me before cutting in front of me. The employee assisting her did not offer the courtesy or common sense to say "let me ring this person (who has been waiting) first." The lady who cut in front of me went on to say, "Geeeeees, I'm sorry for cutting in front of yooou." Meanwhile, another employee came to the register and asked if I needed help with something. Yes, I'd like to make this purchase. To which she replied in confusion, "sure, after I help these people" while pointing to the long line of people wanting to get assorted candy boxes (everyone knows that line takes forever). So nobody knows how to manage a quick transaction or ensure that a customer does not rudely cut in front of another customer waiting at the register? I left without buying the licorice. Not sure if I will bother returning. read more

Super friendly sees helpers very accommodating good recommendations, wrap the way you'd like it super cheerful with a smile makes you enjoy your visit to sees even more than the candy read more

See's Candies is a SoCal institution. We do enjoy their chocolates. This shop in Marina del Rey is in a shopping center anchored by a Ralph's. The associates are pleasant and helpful ... and offer samples. Parking is tight in the shared lot in front of the store. read more

I really loved this particular location. All around, i love the Marina Del Rey area as a whole. This Sees Candies has two different places to pay, which is convenient when you just want to pop in and out without having to wait in a long line. I just wanted some lollipops. I chose chocolate and cinnamon. I loved them both and can't wait to try some other chocolates. I also loved the samples my husband and I were given. That was so sweet, thank you! I look forward to my next trip. I do have one suggestion that you bring in some dark chocolate lollipops because I love dark chocolate. I can't wait for my twin and me to venture into the candy store together. I hope she's as much of a sugar junkie as I am! If she's anything like me, she will be! We will be coming back! You guys are bomb. read more

Very excellent service, Alexander was super nice! Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to try some new sweets.

Ordered off their website. Got a custom 1lb box. So the website is a little weird when it comes to custom boxes -- not as user friendly as I'd like but this is a review of the Marina location, not the site. (Damnit, I should've punctuated with more commas or something). So, I never got an email from them stating that my order was ready for pickup. I was already picking something else up in the same lot, so I called. The woman (who I believe was Sandra and possibly the manger) on the phone was very nice and customer service oriented. She recalled my name/basic order makeup and said my order was ready, whenever I came in. After my first curbside pickup, I went over to pick it up. I wish See's had curbside pickup too. But I digress. I went in and there were a few people inside. Only the employees and one other customer, other than me, were donning masks. Ya, I know the legal requirement became a recommendation but we're inside a fairly small store, people. The woman at the counter addressed me upon entering with a "welcome." She seemed new-ish and asked me whether I'd wait until her manager could scan me out. I was ready to roll, as I had my wife and baby waiting in the car, but real talk, if you ask me something nicely, I'll probably be more than willing to work with you. The woman at the counter was cool and a bit overly apologetic (you're all good, don't sweat the small stuff). I reassured her that I'd wait over on the side and not to worry. See's messaged me and I now know the associate's name: Andrea. The Marina (the area) is a highly whitened and highly caffeinated area, so we love seeing our folks of color up in it. She is worth acknowledging for her customer service skills. Final Word: We'll be back again when we need our See's fix and we are close to the 90. read more

I've never shopped at this See's location before even though I frequent stores and restaurants in the same shopping center. I was the only one in the store and the two workers were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful. I got a pound of milk chocolate and a box of root beer lollipops. A pound is currently $27.50. I usually go to the Manhattan Beach, Westfield Culver City, Torrance, or Sherman Oaks locations, but this location is definitely worth repeat visits with the excellent customer service. read more

It's See's. The best chocolate ever. Free samples, friendly service, great prices. If you don't get your chocolate here...I'm sorry! I love all the dark chocolate with peanuts and their fudge is amazing, too. read more

*See's Candies by the Sea* Sentimental Sweet Spot I grew up on See's Candies and have been eating it ever since I knew what candy was. I blame my Dad & Mom because before I was born, my Mom ate See's while I was in her tummy and I inherited my parent's candy-loving genes :) I'm at the MdR Marketplace often and it's nearly impossible for me to be near any See's Candies without the need to to cure my quick candy fix. Everyone working at this location is always sweet & kind to me - just like their candy... and I love the white outfitted uniforms & black bow tie & sweaters they still wear after all these years - just like Mary See's on the Box. What I also love about See's is they always offer free samples no matter what you buy or how much you spend. Since I don't like to eat too much sugar & chocolate nowadays, I try to limit my candy intake and I usually buy 2 things + my free sample. I have learned to have willpower but still can't resist the indulgence. My favorites are: Scotchmallows, Scotch Kisses and Molasses Chips. I first discovered the Molasses Chips in their traditional pre-made one pound boxes when I was a little boy. And due to the fact there's 3 pieces, I'd always choose it as my free sample because I could make it last longer :) I used to buy 10-20 boxes every year during the holidays and give them as gifts. And every year since I was 10 (back then I'd save my allowance and wash cars) I'd buy my parents & all my grandparents their own 1 pound box (sometimes even 2 lbs ;) of their own select boxes because they all have/had their favorites. It's so much fun picking out all the individual pieces & putting together personalized boxes. But truth be told - there were a couple years where I'd break into one of their boxes and have to go back to buy a replacement :) There's also been times I'd buy 50-100 boxes and give them to clients as gifts for the holidays. Who wouldn't like & enjoy a box of See's Candies?? See's Candies has a lot of wonderful history & tradition and there's a reason why they've been around & doing their thing since 1921. See's Candies always hits a sentimental sweet spot. It's been a big part of my childhood & adult life, and to this day, every time I step foot inside any of their locations, I still feel like a kid in the perfect candy store. read more

I've always loved this Candy Shop in the Marina. Yesterday on 12/18/24, I went into the store as usual. But yesterday I was charged double for an item. Upon arriving home I checked my bag and discovered this error. I immediately called the store and they asked for the name of the employee, which I gave them, they apologized and promised a refund immediately. Later I received a text stating I would have to come to the store to receive the credit. Once I returned to the store the employee shared that for some reason that the scanner scans twice. Buyers be aware you're being over charged, and the store is aware of their faulty equipment. If you don't complain, they come up read more

Ayanna made our day today. That's the short of it. She was patient when we were indecisive and gracious during checkout. Of course the chocolate was great, but she made the experience best-in-class. Thank you Ayanna read more

Love this place! They still give samples. They have the cutest Valentine's Day gifts. My favorite is St. Patrick's treats. Can't wait!

What's not to love about sees candy It's the one chocolate I fly around the world to give as a gift And the folks who work at sees in Marina del Rey are always so great. no wonder Warren buffet owns sees candy via bees hire Hathaway read more

See's super customer Service which never disappoints This location is bright and clean like you would expect. The See's employee always offers Free Chocolate and free lollipop samples. Yum! Free See's Chocolate ... Is something no one can resist. NO ONE! read more

What a super friendly chocolate and candy store! I can feel the holiday vibe here,busy customers and yet,the lady noticed me needing a basket so she prompted someone to hand me one. Ahh! I love this simple act of kindness. I filled my basket with a variety of chocolates and lollipops as stocking stuffers,paid and took off with a piece of chocolate sample in my hand and a $5 discount coupon! read more

So after all these years of my husband and I living a short two miles from a See's Candy, we finally broke the seal one day by going into a shop in person to spontaneously buy ourselves a box of chocolates. I had just woken up from working a night shift at the hospital- I was cranky, had a horrible migraine, and was depressed about how I had just wasted the whole day away sleeping after work. So naturally... all I could think about was chocolate, more specifically, SEE'S. We were greeted by two of the kindest ladies, with one in particular being extra patient with me as I indecisively hand selected all of my favorite chocolates. (Shout out to Brooklyn!!! God bless you forever!) They're customer service, patience, and all-around chocolate-indulging support made our trip so fun and turned my entire day around. I would come back here endlessly and 20/10 recommend. Though such a positive experience is quite dangerous... heed my warning. read more

I love your chocolate and staff their amazing but why do u guys keep changing the way u display. The way it is now is so annoying. Just makes no sense. Please go back to the regular way read more

I am in love with chocolate, it is completely necessary for my survival. See's is top tier chocolate and ALWAYS hits the spot. This location is my favorite (of many I've tried) and I am a frequent customer. The employees are always incredibly friendly and helpful. Additionally, the manager, Sandra E- an angel! She is so kind and always recommends amazing treats that I love. She is passionate about her work and truly knows what she is doing. Willy Wonka got nothin on the magic of See's and Sandra E!!! read more

My family and I had a phenomenal experience here. Brooklyn was SO personable and incredibly helpful with our order. Her recommendations were honest and she let us try a few pieces that I normally wouldn't have gone for. Her energy was so contagious and you could tell she was really invested in our conversation. 5 stars all around. I'll definitely be back to this location when I come back to LA. If I could give her 10 stars, I would! read more

Worker was very rude upon entering, I love sees candies but unfortunately a bad experience at this location

Sees is by far the best chocolate I've ever tasted. Far superior to Godiva. Outstanding varieties, freshness, and superb customer service. Try the shop in Marina Del Rey California and Westfield Shopping Center, Culver city. The stores are always spotlessly clean, with the most pleasant knowledgeable people working there. Plus they will always give you a beautiful delicious sample of any variety. The Sees experience will lift up your entire day ! read more

Came in for Easter candy with my service animal. After standing in line for 5-6 minutes holding my puppy due to multiple pieces of chocolate all over the floor (deadly for animals) I was told by the sales representative no dogs. I explained he's a service animal and she said it doesn't matter. I said if I sit him on the floor he's likely to pick up chocolate on the floor. She ignored me and I simply said then you're losing business and she replied, that's fine." Poor experience around a holiday to say the least. I cannot recommend this location to anyone and See's has lost my business. Happy Easter... right? read more

This is a great location. Yes crowded parking lot.. But...that's because there is so much great shopping here! As for See's Candy...it's the best! Friendly service and a really special product! read more

5 reasons for 5 stars... See's Chocolate Truffles ... See's Assorted Chocolate 1 lb. Boxes ... See's Cinnamon Pops ... See's Valentine Heart Chocolate Gifts ... See's super Service When my wife saw See's new store conveniently located in the Waterside Shopping Center in Marina del Rey (just a mile from our place), she excitedly texted me with her 1st wish list. It's the same excitement I'd get if a new Yard House was opening up in the Marina. Mmmmm Beer.... Wait, this review is about chocolate ... Mmmmm chocolate ... and not just any chocolate ... See's Chocolate! The new store is bright and clean like you would expect. What I didn't expect was the line of ladies waiting to choose their daily chocolate anti-depression meds. The grins, giggles, and shakes gave away their desperate need for chocolate. Service was über friendly. I was using a Costco discount voucher for 1 pound of assorted. One of the ladies behind the counter threw in a couple free samples so I wouldn't have to wait to get my choco-freak on. Yum. Free Chocolate ... Free See's Chocolate ... Is something no one can resist. read more

***Pretty similar to every other See's; there is a good combination of quality and value here; service was friendly and polite and the chocolate was satisfying enough though I do not enjoy See's as much as I used to*** This See's is located in a shopping plaza, which has its own free parking lot. Occasionally, the parking lot can get very busy and it can be difficult finding a spot. read more

See's Candies - Chocolates - Chocolatiers & Shops Near Me - Marina del Rey, California

First of all, we love See's candy. We always gift them to friends and family. The closest store is in Marina Del Rey and we visit this store often. My wife was going to have lunch with two dear friends and she wanted to buy them some See's candy for a small gift. Unfortunately my wife has epilepsy and we have a service dog who alerts her when she is about to have a seizure. As soon as my wife stepped through the door of this See's store, the lady working behind the counter screamed out "No dogs"! My wife attempted to explain her situation, but the woman did not want to hear any explanations. She repeated herself with another "No dogs". This really upsets me especially in the West Side where everyone has a dog with them. She also was extremely rude and unprofessional. Worst of all, we will never return to this store and we really loved buying our See's candy here at the Waterside location. I wish my wife would have asked for the workers name, but she was too upset and intimidated to speak with her. This occurred on February 21 at approximately 1:00pm. If you have special needs, do not visit this location unless you want to feel belittled. read more

I cute little See's Candies with friendly (aren't they all?) staff in a cute little hidden center that was surprisingly super busy. The parking lot should have been sufficient but for some reason is just teeming with people. My coworker told me of his family Easter tradition: his mom made a point of giving each of her kids a chocolate egg from See's Candies and it was so delicious. I figured, why not try one? Well no wonder these things are good... they're even called dark chocolate butter. Yum! So the dark chocolate butter was super rich and super good. The rocky road one was really good too. I'm just not a fan of marshmallows so next time, I'm getting the dark chocolate butter with walnuts. Yum!!! read more
