I walked inside out of curiosity and felt like I walked into the closet in Narnia and I was inside a whole different world, like on vacation in Mexico and there was stall after stall of shops. There was a food vendor right by the entrance and a huge jewelry booth. As I walked deeper in, I saw a few labubu, clothes, health food store, and cowboy boots and apparels. All the shops were clean and organized. I couldn't believe how deep this venue went and keep walking until I got to the Michoacna! I had no idea there was one inside of this place. If you need ice cream, pinatas, cowboy gear or clothes, you will want to stop by here to check it out. The entrance is a few doors down from Discovery. .|\---/| | @_@ | ..\_^_/..2025 read more

Just an update of my review from almost 10 years ago, as I have had the opportunity to really check this place out many more times and actually buy some nice things here. Much different than my quick "walk-thru" some years back where I was just in and out and wasn't able to leave a real proper review. Lots of little interesting shops, gift stores, clothing vendors, and many other kiosks inside. Again as if my first review, there is a nice nostalgia with me as I remember this place as "North Park Mall" various decades ago. If you are looking for nice gifts, stuffed animals, and cute crafted items for a significant other, there is lots to see here. Many many nice quality stuff animals too at BARGAIN rates. I enjoy walking around in here now 1-2 times a month, and have met some nice people and vendors working there. Overall the cater is towards Hispanics, but I see people of all sorts walking around. Def worth checking out, but you have to give it a few FAIR and thorough walk-a-rounds to let everything seep in. read more

My husband and I are flea market frequents and this one is our least favorites. There is a very specific cultural group that this market appeals to and if you are not of that cultural group, they tend to overlook you, as if you are not a potential buyer. The facility is an abandon mall that needs some basic maintenance. There are areas that are down right scary, like the east wing. Unless you are totally out of options, try some place else first. read more

They have some decent stuff.. my daughter got her piñata there because I couldn't find one anywhere close by and it was my last option and it was okay. They charged $32 for a tacky piñata of Mario brothers & was very creased and slightly damaged . Then I encountered a lady who was selling dresses and charged over $100 for a glittery dress that would look like something you can get cheaper online .. don't be fooled. Overall, the elotes and raspados are fire here. read more

Interesting items for sale. Lots of foot traffic. However dark feeling upon entry. Deff. Place to go if you want a pinata or cowboy hat and boots. There is a store that had some very unique woman's clothing and Acessories . read more

This review is for the small piñata shop by the entrance. Cheap prices for a great variety of mexican candy & piñatas. Definitely check it out for your child party needs! read more

The atmosphere in the flea market is ghastly. The store is dimly lit, and very dark. Only a few shops/setups are open within the deteriorating mall complex. read more

I was charged over $1000 dollars on my card after making a purchase in the perfume store. Tax on the item along with the $1000 extra dollars was not revealed to me (the register read a different number than my total) and I was not given a receipt. When we went in to confront him he gave us $1000 cash out of the register so we didn't call the cops and accepted that maybe he "made a mistake". If you decide to go here just be careful I don't know about everyone but there are vendors in there who will try to rip you off and manipulate you. read more

This is a smallish flea market heavily catered to Mexican clientele. There are some unique stores here though including a collectible toy / card store for your Yu Gi Oh and Marvel figure fix. There is also a booth that deals in Mexican and American Heavy Metal , weird. There is also your usual Asian owned shop with all the cheap Taiwanese knock off products and cheapo tourist stuff. One of the stands has hundreds of different and unique hot sauces, cool. I also found a army surplus booth with some killer airborne combat boots. So If you need to pick armadillo skin cowboy boots , Sound system components for your car , or a Mexican wedding dress and who doesn't , this is the place for you. read more

This is a junk mall of vendors that just resell goodwill and other thrift store finds at slightly raised prices. It's depressing when you walk in. The sales people are all sitting around, but they don't care talk and it what they're selling, or god forbid negotiate on prices. The stores are a mix of trash, tattoo parlor, bars, and odd dress shops. I don't know of any reason to come here, unless you want a haircut with your nose piercing/tattoo. read more

The only taco restaurant in that place is soo but soo disgusting! I don't even know if it has a name, it's right across a candy store and next to the entrance. We ate their and it was terrible. We order wings they were frozen wings off a cheap market. I ordered a burrito n it barely had any meat on it n when I ate half of it. It automatically made my stomach hurt. The food is so bland the salsa is so watery n nasty the torta was nasty. If I would of known I wouldn't of bought anything from here. Worst taco joint ever! Don't waste your time or money on here!! The fries don't even taste like fries!! ITS TERRIBLE!!! This restaurant needs improvement if I can rate the food I'd give it a I want my money back plus -5. So dissatisfied with this so called taco restaurant?? Don't even bother people unless you want the shits and waste money on terrible over priced quality food OTHER THAN THAT RESTAURANT... EVERYTHING ELSE IS GREAT(: read more

great place for typical flea market stuff I was able to get a wallet cheap from a vendor and my watch battery replaced for under $10
