4 /5 Laura Menendez Derflingher: It is a very nice place for families and its a community hub. So far, the best place in Sugarland. For SoCal folks moving to the Sugarland area, this centre will remind you of the Irvine architecture, super clean, manicured, walkable, family friendly. Is "tucked in" and away from the Houston buzzing area which is very nice. Most reviews tell you the great things about this centre and its all true. However, Instead of repeating the same things. I will answer to several requests to answer one thing. I was asked if this centre compares to Fashion Island in Newport Beach CA. The answer is yes and no. While both places offer a well executed open air mixed use shopping-dining walking experience, there are, in my opinion fundamental differences.
Sugarland TS (although over 30 acres) , is significantly smaller than Fashion Island. Restaurants and retail shops are different. While you wont find an Ocean 48 or an RH Ocean Grill in Sugarland TS, you will be able to find Perrys Steakhouse and Grille. I wont talk about retail stores because theyre very different, but I can say that a more similar place to Fashion Island could be The Shops at La Cantera in San Antonio, TX .
Now, with the recent high budget approval for Sugar Land Town Square, I hope I get to update this review in a few years. For now, as of 2025-2027, both centers close early. Theres a minimum of choices for late dinner and theres practically no nightlife. It has enough parking and its targeted to brunch-dinner hours mainly. If you live or visit the area, by all means visit and enjoy the SL TS. The customer service, local restaurants, chain and one of a kind places are more than worth the time. I hope this helps
