I hadn't realized that there were Chihuly Art Pieces here. Beautiful…read more I went to Woods Coffee, The Paper Source, and The Container Store in Lincoln Square, about 4 months ago now. Service was fine at Woods Coffee and The Container Store; not great, not bad. I was happy that Woods Coffee had Kombuchas for sale, and my Kombucha that I bought there was pretty good. The price was decent for it too, Kombuchas are not super cheap even when buying them at the grocery store, so for a coffee shop in a mall-like area I was satisfied with the price for it. I drink Kombucha often. I love the Container Store, and I could spend hours in there. The selection was excellent. However, despite my enjoyable browsing, I just bought a load of white cardboard boxes that I had pre-ordered to make a maze/playhouse for my cat. I thought his maze/playhouse would look much nicer if I used white cardboard boxes that do not have labels all over them, rather than brown cardboard amazon boxes. Service and selection at the Paper Source were both outstanding. That was my favorite store that I visited here. I bought several items there, and felt super relaxed and welcome while in that store. Very nice area, I would return for sure.

I'll admit I have mall nostalgia, so whenever I step into one, I get a certain feeling. Most Malls…read morethese days are only a small percent of what they once were. Crossroads is sort of a hybrid strip and indoor mall which collectively keep itself going. Crossroads indoor portion is held up by a strong food court, it's "Public Market" with a lot of options - burgers, Mexican, Thai, sushi, Indian, Boba, Korean, Hawaiian and more. On top of that, there are plenty of seats. I'd even go so far to say that the Food Court is the main attraction here and the other stores are secondary, which include Old Navy, Hallmark and other services - Mini Library, information about Bellevue and such. The Mall itself looks kept up and seems to be doing well enough to keep going, so I say that's good. People clearly endorse it. I was here on a weekday afternoon for work. I sat down to take a rest and two separate families walked up with their children and put them in those 'coin-operated riding machines'. Moments before this happened, I asked myself "does anyone use these things anymore?". My question was answered. Crossroads is alive.

Yep, just…read morea walk down the hill and you have just about everything you need and if it's not there perhaps is across the way at Factoria marketplace/mall which has several places as well. Plenty of things are in the 'village' which is basically a squared strip mall. There are places to eat including two Pizza spots, Applebee's, Vietnamese food and more. For drinks there is sideline bar, groceries and convenience - QFC and Bartell. Coffee? Starbucks. So on and so forth. Across the way there is target, famous footwear and more which is relatively close, it could be walked which is what I did when since I never needed too much at a time. There are plenty of parking spaces and fairly easy to get in and out of. Given how filled up it gets I'd say it's a convenient place as it was for me as well as the folks who regularly come here.

This used to be called Loehmann's Plaza except the Loehmann's store is no longer here, wow I've…read morebeen around this long to know that. I've seen it go through all the changes from old stores going out and new stores coming in to the Keg getting knocked down to make room for several extra commercial retail space to the parking lot getting renovated. This place thrives because of T-Mobile's headquarter right next door, during the day, it's an invasion from the employees everywhere. Avoid lunch rushes if you're in a rush. People complain about parking, but there's plenty of parking if you just circle around a bit, since it's a pretty in and out area, somebody will be out in a minute. It's convenient for me to walk here without having to go through any crosswalk. There's 3 Starbucks within this complex, one on each side and one inside QFC. Tell me about your experience if you've been here or is going to after reading this review:)

Arguably, it is the best strip mall in Bellevue for shopping and dining. It is located in the…read moreOverlake area across from Fred Meyer. This shopping center is where Asian Family Market, along with some high-profile food establishments including 85C, Sun Sui Wah and Supreme Dumplings. There is also an Indian grocery and a bunch of other Asian eateries here. Parking is sufficient most of the time, but many of the parking spaces are slanted and smallish. I do like that most of the rows are one-way only and that there are multiple entrances, which keeps the lots from becoming congested. All in all, it is a well-managed strip mall with many in-demand businesses in Bellevue.

It opened in 2009, originally with a Niemann Marcus anchoring. It has changed a bit during the years, with NM vacating its space in 2020 as part of its bankruptcy. That large space is currently being renovated for future retail use, but it means as of now, it is luxury brands like Prada, Gucci, Hermes, and Louis Vuitton that are the main draws. Complementary parking requires validation.

The photos show a fairly empty mall mid day. Huge and wide open spaces. Good lighting too. The value would depend on which store you're looking at. The parking lot around this mall is always busy. Which leads me to believe it's a fairly popular place. I do frequent the Amazon Fresh not necessarily connected directly to the mall but next door. There is a Nordstrom Rack, lakeshore education store, and of course the T&T Supermarket on one end of the mall. So yes, a large selection of shopping choices with various values. Any stores I've visited had good service. Security is always seen circulating the area which makes me happy too. Enjoy life! SYOY!

Factoria is a neighborhood of Bellevue, WA, and has a dedicated shopping mall (Marketplace at…read moreFactoria) that people around the area will go to. Recently, a large Asian grocery opened as one of the outdoor anchors, so we decided to come down. We noticed right away how crowded the outdoor surface lots were, and that there was a line extending outside to get into the grocery store, so we nixed that idea. Instead, we found a less crowded parking area on the other side of the mall. It is a one story indoor mall, with a mix of small businesses, kiosks, and big anchor stores. The layout is definitely from an earlier time, but unlike malls like this in California which are closed or just empty, this one had a fair amount of shoppers milling around. One thing to note are that some of the anchor stores are not connected to the indoor mall at all, instead requiring you to walk outside and through parking to get where you want to go. Like I said, not a great layout.

A majority of the establishments here seem to sell very similar things(Asian desserts & boba) so…read moreI'm a little surprised that the landlord allow similar establishments here. It's a bit tucked away in the Lake Hills neighborhood so I'm only here if it's for something very specific: 1. The spiced meat over rice & house iced coffee from Hardwok Cafe. There's another location in Seattle, but the parking is a nightmare plus the interior isn't as nice as this location. 2. MeetFresh. Not because I'm a fan of their desserts, it's more of a "what's still open after dinner in Bellevue that we can have an excuse to sit and catch up some more". It's open late, plenty of seating to lounge around, I of course would pick something random to buy so I can sit here and hang out. 3. There's a hot pot spot here. I don't come here for hot pot though, I love their mushroom dynamite. On weekdays, it's half priced appetizers during dinner. I feel weird taking up a space and not ordering hot pot so I'll try to find somebody to tag along with so we can order a bunch of appetizers. If the dumpling place would open on my one day off, I would have already tried it since I've heard good things, but too bad I just haven't had the chance to stop by with my schedule. There's a library and dog grooming/hotel where you can upgrade your dog's room to a suite with a TV and ceiling fan for a hefty fee, I'm not sure if they have cable TV for the dog or they are stuck with the basic channels. Tell me about your experience if you've been here or is going to after reading this review:)
