But I can at least guarantee that the mall is always lively and there's plenty of parking. Lots of restaurants around and across the street too. What I like best about this mall is their effort to foster community here, such as the Dia de los Muertos display or when I happened to walk pass a Bluey Xmas dance party and you can take pictures with Santa AND Bluey. Super cute. One time years and years ago, they had a scavenger hunt for Christmas where you search around the mall to take photos with your phone for an ornament. I really liked that I did that and got to spend time with my family. I've seen so many shops come and go here and pieces of my childhood through adolescence such as the Disney Store (I remember spending time here looking through that giant plushie pile), the merry go round, Surf City Squeeze (always thought their mascot looked cool, now replaced with a Pop Mart vending machine), Nothing But Silver (went here lots with my mom and aunts), Sanrio Surprise, Amapola Deli and Market (crazy they tried to open a market in here), the hermit crab vendor, McDonald's that my mom would always get my brother and I and the vendors that would try to sell stickers at our table, the dollar store on the upper floor above Baskin Robbins, the used bookstore and so much more. Huge chunk of nostalgic memories for me, but today it's decent mall with most things that you would need. Some shops I go to often to get gifts or pick up something for myself, See's (thanks for closing PH location), Hot Topic, Bath and Body Works, Miniso, etc. At least the Tilt arcade here is still open. I wouldn't go out of my way to go here, but if you're already here, might as well enjoy malls before more of them perish.

It's a hub for not just great food and shopping, but for entertainment they have AMC and Dave and Buster's as well. Plenty of parking available between outdoor parking lot and the multi level indoor garage. We initially came to the mall for dinner at Din Tai Fung. While walking the place, I found they had so many other Asian brand stores like Miniso, Meet Fresh, Uniqlo and Kinokuniya bookstore. But most surprising of all was finding a whole 99 Ranch inside the mall. After dinner, we did some shopping here. Later at night, I came back here to play some games in Dave & Buster's. But the signs can improve a bit for better direction. I was so confused how to get to the parking near D&B entrance. Also, the parking garage seemed under maintained. But overall a really great place for both locals and tourists.

Tons of parking available. They have some fun shops and great eateries such as Trader Joe's, Kohl's, Panera Bread, Ike's (by the way, they just opened 3 months ago), Chase Bank, and so much more. From the main street of Huntington Drive, it doesn't seem that huge... maybe it's because the shops are deep in and not closer to the street... who knows. Now that Ike's is here, I'll be visiting it more often when I'm in the Arcadia area. This shopping center is actually located in the city of Monrovia (neighbor of Arcadia) which I don't visit frequently except for driving through it as I'm leaving Arcadia on surface street. Huntington Drive is a long stretch through several cities and it just has so many plazas and shopping centers on its course. I actually enjoy my drive through LOL. Thank you! Anyway, drop on by here and enjoy an afternoon of fun shopping and good eats.

The staples of this plaza (at least for me) are definitely the:…read more-Target -Starbucks (even though there is one inside the Starbucks) -Home Depot -PetSmart -Panda Express -Quickly (I used to go here all the time before I could drive and go to further boba places) -Wendy's (even though I'm sure a worker or someone affiliated DM'ed me on Yelp and called me a slur) -Salvation Army (donating is super easy here) -UPS Store (my god send in returning Amazon packages) There's El Pollo Loco, Einstein Bro.'s Bagel (used to be Jamba Juice), Jersey Mike's, Game Stop (I have a HAUNTING suspicion many more of these will clothes since game companies are moving away from physical media and making everything a digital download now), and a couple other businesses I don't necessarily really go to. There's PLENTY of parking since it's such a huge plaza, but it can get quite busy with all of the cars going in and out. The main intersection you enter in and out can get REALLY ugly with cars not following right of way, the lanes to turn left backing up into the intersection, etc., so if I can avoid it and just exit near the UPS Store I would. I feel like at a certain point they really should put traffic lights there, but on dead times it's not so bad honestly. As for other things, sometimes there's vagrants wandering around (camping behind the Salvation Army), one time a guy was peeing outside of his car, the letters are always being stolen from the Heights sign, and there used to be car meets here before they were shut down. I just really like that this place is quite close to me.

These were times that I had to park all the way near the main road and walk a farther distance. Not too bad, just a warning. All the other times, it's pretty busy due to the gym and Tokyo Central here, but it's manageable, just be careful since I had a friend's car get scuffed since fools think they can just idle in front of the post office. I feel like I'm here almost every week, if not every other week. The plaza has a Baskin Robbin's/Dunkin Combo, Lan Noodle, a Cantonese restaurant, a dumpling restaurant, Rainbow Donuts, Taco Bell, some tutoring, beauty, and other businesses, Meow Tea and Miko's Pet Supplies with the cat adoption and cafe section, the Post Office, Tokyo Central, the gym, and a pet hospital. There's definitely more here, but since I don't peruse those businesses, I won't list them willy nilly. Towards the vet, there's rows of Tesla chargers. Sucks that they have those now, since before they did they had a little side walk section with benches and just places to low key hang out if you grabbed food and wanted to sit there. During the holidays, either the plaza staff or other close business staff put inflatable Christmas Minions there. Now with the chargers, no more...

When I found out, I said I am going to go and see her. I am glad that I did, and we were happy to see each other. So today practically all day, we spent some time together at this lovely, clean mall that is surrounded by so many great stores and eateries. There are probably over 130 stores and places to eat inside and outside the mall. Let me not forget to tell you, some of the restrooms that we used were SPOTLESS CLEAN!!! They have different stores such as Disney, Nike Factory Store, Coach, Polo Ralph Lauren Factory Store, Michael Kors, Guess, BOSS Outlet, Beauty and Specialty Stores, Tommy Hilfiger (one of my favorite designers & brands). Converse Factory Outlet, & Gap. Just to name a few. They have vending machines available with snacks and drinks. Also, a lot of nice restaurants nearby. Free parking and close to the I-5 freeway. We went to Gap and Converse, and I bought me 2 pairs of tennis shoes. Get one, and the other one was 50% off. Fantastic deal. From Gap, I got a nice, long, black jacket. Thin material and very comfortable. They also had clean dressing rooms at Gap. Every item has its own value and price. Both stores that we went to had great employees who were eager to help us. Customer service was above and beyond our expectations. We even had lunch at Panda Express. The list can go on and on and on. It has been like 7 years I haven't seen my friend. She used to live here, we used to work together, and then she relocated back to Florida to help her parents. It was a great outing, the only thing was that there was construction going on around the mall. Maybe they are building more businesses? Thank you all for everything. Always be & stay consistent!!

There are over hundred stores spread across a huge area. It is a lot of walking to go from one end to another, including the separate section that has Disney store. There are not as many high end/luxurious brand stores. There was also some contractions going on in one corner of the building. Most of the shops have sun shade in front of their store which allows customers to walk in shade. During the day it gets really hot. There are few sitting areas with shade available. There are vending machines available with snack and drinks. Restrooms are available in three separate sections. The outlet had a shaded food court area with multiple vendor stores. There are couple of dine-in restaurants available as well. We came to the outlet on multiple days. It was busy on both days since it was the weekend. Some of the stores like TH, Guess and Levi's were two floors. Other ones like Nike and Adidas seemed disappointing product wise. There's a 10% sales tax on everything. Overall a decent outlet mall, but not as impressive compared the ones I have been in NJ and NY.
