All remnants of the old NBA City restaurant are gone as work looks be wrapping up on the exterior of the new Toothsome Chocolate Emporium & Savory Feast Kitchen. This original steampunk themed restaurant should be opening soon at Universal CityWalk. I was there Friday evening and the immense size of those smokestacks is incredible. They can be seen from everywhere on property, including from inside the parks! Check out the video and photographs below for a look at the new smokestacks, steampunk decor, and even working gauges that really spin! No word yet on an opening date but tables, chairs, and everything else is starting to show up inside and on the outdoor patios, so it shouldn’t be too much longer now! Stay tuned for more Toothsome news as it happens.

Construction Update

A look at the front. Still missing the sign and work continues around the entrance

Whimsical landscaping compliments the architecture perfectly

What the old clock tower of NBA City now looks like

The building is kinetic with animated parts like these spinning thingies

You’ll be able to see the name in some way no matter which direction you’re coming from

Everything looks exactly like the concept art they released

I wonder if they’ll have a candy store gift shop to visit in case you don’t want to sit for service

Well themed steampunk elements

Smokestack says Toothsome on this side

Pipe on top-left looks like it might be equipped to blow smoke as it has a screen at its opening

Gauges really move if you look close enough

If you look really really close you can see that it says “Universal Gauges” on them

Work was finishing up on the pavement while I was there

One of these gears was spinning while I was there

Where the giant Toothsome sign will go when it’s all done

One last look from across the water before we go
