RUDE WORKERS!!! The clothing is beautiful and very good quality but the customer service is…read moreabsolutely horrendous. I went to the store planning on buying this wonderful dress but the staff were so extremely rude and were very gossipy constantly whispering and making crude remarks about many customers including me. People like that have no place in customer service. The workers were so horrible I instead thought it was in my best interest to go to a different Banana Republic. The Banana Republic in the Galleria was absolutely fantastic with extremely kind workers. I was too shocked by their crude remarks to get their names and report them to corporate but I will never shop at that location again.

This BR location is a large store with lots of inventory. Whether you are looking for pieces that…read morecan be used for work or play, classic clothing never fails. I stopped by the store to try-on a dress I'd seen on-line. Little did I know that the dress had been marked down and was an additional 40% off! BR may be a bit pricey at times but the sales are amazing! The sale racks hold some incredible deals that are truly worth the money. The staff that I dealt with were quite cordial and very helpful. The store was neat and clean in spite being pretty busy. The only thing I don't quite like is the unisex dressing room. I really wish it was separated by gender for privacy. If you are unfamiliar with this feature, be prepared to hear a mix of voices and remember not to come out to take a peek in the 3-way mirror without being "ready".

For years, I was convinced lululemon was a store for young girls and bougie middle-aged women…read more Boy, was I wrong. Somewhere along the way, I tried a pair of their workout shorts. That was apparently the beginning of the end. In my wildest dreams, I never thought I would be the guy who owned an $80 pair of workout shorts. Yet here we are. Not only do I own a pair, I now own several pairs. And the worst part is I completely understand why. They are ridiculously comfortable, fit great, hold up well, and are just about perfect for working out. What in the heck happened to the dude who grew up in Algiers? I guess my transition into a full-blown Mandevillian has finally been realized. Eighty-dollar workout shorts from lululemon. There is no going back now. As for the Rice Village location, it's a nice store with a good selection and plenty of people working to help. It was absolutely packed when we were there, but that really didn't bother me. Rice Village is busy in general, and if you're coming here to shop, plan to walk around and make an afternoon of it. Parking is probably the biggest annoyance. Most of what we found nearby was paid parking in the surrounding lots, so just factor that into the experience and move on. Once you're parked, there is plenty nearby to see, eat, and shop. But none of that changes the important part of this review: Get the dang workout shorts. I hate that I'm saying it. My wallet hates that I'm saying it. The kid from Algiers definitely hates that I'm saying it. But get the dang workout shorts. For years, I was convinced lululemon was a store for young girls and bougie middle-aged women.

The team here has always been really nice with helping out at the dressing room or answering questions while letting you have your personal space when browsing. They've been super nice and understanding with exchanges and returns-- I had a pair of shorts with the plastic tag that broke off that still accepted. Only downside is that I've noticed that they don't carry a lot of sizes so end up ordering it online in store for you to ship to your home. Park in the nearby garages for free 2 hour parking!

Nothing is worse than trying to dig through clothes in a messy, unorganized store. It's set up pretty similarly to other locations. They usually have a good playlist going and the staff is always nice. I almost always find something at this store. I've purchased clothing and accessories. Their shoe section is pretty large and they apparently have a good selection of Hoka shoes. I haven't shopped for home goods, but they seem to have a good variety. I really love this location. It beats going out to Sugar Land or Clear Lake.

I love this store and the clothing, but had a horrible experience with the staff recently…read more When I entered the store no one was on the floor for at least 5 minutes. Eventually one of them said "oh hi" from the back. Another customer walked in and greeted me because she thought I worked there since no one else was out. They eventually came onto the floor. As I shopped, I asked one of them if they had all sizes out and they responded from across the store that they had additional sizes in the back for some things so I asked her her to check on a couple of items, she then asked if I wanted to start a room since I was holding 12 items at this point. I accumulated more items and the other woman came up to me to ask if I wanted it added to my room and said "we have a limit on items", but failed to say what it was and walked away. My cousin joined me in the store and they did not greet her, and I explained to her no one had been greeted. She left the store and I went to try my items on. During my 30 minutes in the dressing room, they checked on me once. When I went to the counter to pay I placed my items in the counter and one of them asked if I found anything I liked, and I said yes everything on the counter. Then she was surprised and asked if I wanted to know the cost of each item, I declined. At this point they began to pay attention to me because I was spending a large amount of money. Just terrible terrible degrading experience.

I have probably every color tee and when they get more or a new design I don't buy 2 in every color because that one will last me YEARS. and when they are a few years old I just start to sleep in them. Ha ! Best investment ever. Can't wait to see the shoes and handbags for spring ! Yasssssss.

I recently purchased two sets of Nautica socks at the Ross on Kirby in Houston…read more When I got home and tried them on, I found that they were slippery and made my shoes squeak (probably why they were at Ross). Living 50 miles, I called ahead and was told by the person on the phone that there wouldn't be a problem returning socks without a receipt. I made the trip in rush hour traffic (seriously), only to be told by the manager, who confirmed that she was actually the same person I talked to on the phone, that no return could be made without the original packaging. I replied that the socks didn't come in a package, only a wraparound sticker and a plastic fastener. She replied that she knew this, but considered those things to be the package. Really?!? To any sane person, those things are just trash! I suggested that she just scan an identical item from the shelf, but she refused, saying something like there was a chance of scanning the wrong one. I knew that there were only two versions of this product, though, because I had bought one of each version! It's standard practice for retail stores to grab a matching product from the shelf in order to scan the UPC. Her refusal to do so seemed to be a deliberate attempt to save face and deny my reasonable request. This misleading info and poor service wasted my time and fuel. I reached out to the corporate office, to give them a chance to make this right, but all they did was quote the return policy, which I did not run afoul of. To be more specific, the return policy does not require that the item be in its original packaging. I will be happy to remove my poor review of Ross Stores when they issue me a refund. Until then, y'all are better off going to the competition. There's plenty out there.
