Beautiful clothes And great attention to detail. The staff really wants to help you figure out your attire goals. I worked with Selma and enjoyed every minute. Very Happy and looking forward to being back. read more

This is the sister store to the Men's shop on Post Street. These designs are best in class for women who want handmade, Ex-US looks that never go out of style. The coats and jackets here are exquisite; I get compliments every time I wear one. Heather was extremely helpful in finding the right style, cut and size. I will definitely be back! read more

So I walk into Barcelino with my mother and sister in the market for a gown for my mother to wear for my sister's wedding. Upon entering an older British lady who was taking a personal call on her phone greets us, and asks if we need any help. We explain that we're just browsing for gowns and she immediately follows up the stairs asking us nonstop questions. Where is the wedding? When is it? Is it in California? What type of venue is it? Are you in the wedding? Family or attending? It almost seemed intrusive but we all seemed to let it go since it seemed like the questions came with good intentions. The hovering immediately became apparent that it was to monitor us as opposed to just being ready to assist us. It all came to a screeching halt when she asked my sister to browse the gowns and dresses by the hanger "as to protect the fabric" and then proceeded to demonstrate how these gowns should be handled. Let me be very clear, my sister who is 30 was by no means damaging or violently/aggressively browsing the dresses like a child, she just was gently moving the gowns to look at the actual dress. She also hovered over my 60 year old mother and myself like we were criminals while talking incessantly about all the dresses she would have coming in and that it might be more appropriate to wear certain colors and styles for the occasion. Fast forward a few minutes when we all collectively just had it and politely excused ourselves and she continued to hover and suggest that we go to "other department stores to browse." It's not exactly a Pretty Woman moment, we weren't dressed like hookers but it was very clear that this woman for whatever reason did not think that three women casually dressed in jeans and tshirts/blouses could afford whatever was in her store. I've never been this offended and appalled by a store or it's staff. We were treated much better at the actual designer stores in Union Square (ie: the Barney's, Neimans and Saks of the world) where we found what we were looking for and were not reprimanded, hovered over and judged based on who we were or what we were wearing. I'd highly advise that the management either train or terminate the woman there on how to better handle people who come into the store that could potentially spend hundreds to thousands of dollars. read more

I like to shop here. It is one of my favorite stores in San Francisco. I like it mostly because first, it does not have branches in other states so I don't need to worry that I will run into someone who wears the same clothes I got, second, they carry some very elegantly made items. I bought a leather and see through sheer combined long jacket. It is so very beautiful. It was made by hand in Turkey. No matter how much money you had, you cannot purchase an item like that anywhere else except here whether you go to Saks or barneys, it's the same. So that is why I like this store. By the way, the leather and sheer jacket was $675! It is beautiful, but has no benefit when it comes to warmth etc, just for looks. But you need an item like that in your closet and you can buy such items only here. Choices: like I said, they have some good items. However, some of the items are way too directed to old folks. I am only in my 20s and most items they have are just not trendy and not for the young. I understand that it may have a lot to do with the purchasing power of their customers and maybe the average age of their customers are older in order to be able to afford the items they sell. I wish they expand on their collection for young people though. Service: I wish they stop hiring people who cannot speak English too well. And they are on the pushy side and I don't like it. I will buy things I like no matter what others say even if it was hideous or I will not be swayed just because you wanna sell. Also, I didn't like how that girl kept following me. Leave me ALONE! If I can afford a $7000 bag, $500 sandals, I am not gonna steal a mere $100 shirt! Made me so uncomfortable. If you wanna help and serve me, do a better job than being creepy and watching me like I was about to steal something. And if you cannot tell the brands or its approximate value, you should not be working in a somewhat upscale shop like this. They used to have a better service 3 months ago. But the new sales girl is just weird and made me feel unwelcome. I do not think I will go there anytime soon. I am giving 3 stars for some beautiful items you can buy only there and its convenient location and former quality of service, but not the current one. read more

The quality is amazing and so much to choose from, you will easily find what you are looking for. Shop local this season! read more

Wonderful people and beautiful clothing. Love this place

High quality clothing and excellent service. The shopping experience at Barcelona Per Donna is second to none.

Walked in looking for a formal dress. Was greeted by an older woman who immediately started inquiring about the event along with the "W's"..Who, What, When and Where. Told her we were just browsing. Followed us throughout the store and UP the stairs to where the formal dresses were. Then continued to tell us about appropriate colors for the seasons and how to "handle" the dresses while we were looking. Our walk in was longer than it took to look around since at that point we really just wanted to get out of there. Nobody likes to be followed or being hovered over. Dresses were probably worth looking at had the woman just let us browse and stopped asking us all sorts of questions. Would I visit this place again? PROBABLY NOT just because of the type of service we got: nosey, inquisitive, unnecessary hovering and very opionated. If I could give it ZERO MINUS I WOULD! read more

Barcelino has gorgeous evening gowns with a red-carpet vibe. The staff is incredibly helpful. I was buying a color wedding dress for someone in another country. It was very difficult to gauge her size and find a dress that would look glamorous but be easy to alter if required. Heather was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. She went out of her way to explain alteration requirements, and LinLee sent me additional pictures the next day to email my friend. My friend was overjoyed with the dress and it fits beautifully. I highly recommend this store for evening gowns. read more

Don't go in here unless you seem "worthy" of buying their expensive dresses. My friend and I are around 20, we were being very polite, and just wanted to browse. If they assume you might not be buying anything, (which they must have based on our age?) the staff will be EXTREMELY rude. Most unpleasant experience I have ever had at a clothing store. read more

Worst shopping experience ever. I was visiting from Boston. A gorgeous yellow dress with Rhinestones caught my eye in the window. I had to special order a large and have it shipped back to Boston. It was damaged when it arrived (missing rhinestones and small stain on skirt lining). I emailed photos to store asking for a new dress to be shipped since I dropped $265 PLUS $15 for shipping. An employee had the nerve to email me suggesting I damaged it by wearing it and that their supplier was no longer making the dress. Their store policy is no refunds, store credit only, and a 20% "restocking" fee. In they end, they "waived" the 20% penalty, clearly because it was their fault shipping me damaged goods. My sister finally went and picked out another dress using my store credit however the manager refused to include the $15 shipping charge. POOR business tactics. A.the customer is always right. B.holding people's money ransom is tacky. C.I will NEVER shop there again. read more
