    The Glendale Galleria has easily become one of Kevin and my favorite malls to spend time at…read more There's so much to do here, so many stores to choose from, and we especially love how close it is to The Americana at Brand, which makes the whole area feel like the perfect little date night spot. We often come here when we want to catch a movie, walk around together, do a little shopping, and then head over to sit by the fountain at the Americana for a while just talking and enjoying the environment. It always feels relaxing, fun, and like such a nice way to spend the evening together. One thing we really love about this mall is how festive it feels during the holidays. The decorations are always done so beautifully and it really adds to the whole experience when walking around. It gives the mall such a warm and lively atmosphere that makes every visit feel a little extra special. Overall, this is one of our favorite places for a casual date night, shopping trip, or just getting out of the house together for a few hours. There's always something to do, and the environment is always enjoyable. Another simple outing that turns into a sweet little memory for us.

    I've been visiting this mall for over 20 years. It has had its ups and downs, but I'm mostly…read morepleased with its current incarnation. Since the pandemic, I rarely shop in person but I will make the effort to visit the Glendale Galleria. Glendale is a safer, cleaner part of L.A. and it's actually possible for me to feel a bit more relaxed here than in Hollywood or Downtown. The mall itself is rather large and when combined with The Americana across the street, it's a nice place to shop and dine. If you enjoy Asian food, beauty products and other merchandise, this is a great place for all of it. For dining options there is Din Tai Fung, Kura Revolving Sushi along with other options in the Food Court. There is a cute shop called , "Korheim" that sells K Beauty products and there is also a Pop Mart and a Miniso store too. There is also a dessert shop called "Angel/Devil" that has boba drinks and Korean style Dubai Chocolate Cookies- so yummy! On the weekends, it can be pure mayhem here. I prefer to come during the week when it's a less crowded. I'm grateful that this mall is still thriving because it's one of the few places I feel is still worth visiting.

    The Empire Center is typically the place I go to for running errands in Burbank. It has a lot of…read morepopular shops in one place like Target, Lowe's, Michael's, Nordstrom Rack, Walmart, Best Buy, etc. It's really convenient that I can get a lot of errands done in one trip, and the center always feels clean and safe when I'm there. On a clear day the mountain views are actually really nice too. My only complaint is the parking lot, mainly how it's designed. The layout is a little odd and the restaurant side can get very packed. Sometimes it takes a while to find a spot anywhere close to where I need to go. Half the time I just give up and park further away from where I want to go. Other than that, it's a solid shopping center and I end up here all the time. I'm giving it 4 stars because of the parking situation.

    I used to like to come and shop, dine at the Empire Center when it opened…read more It is a huge, outdoors shopping center in Burbank. Free parking. But lately it's an necessary evil, I come only when I really need certain items I have to get in stores at Target, Best Buy, Michaels and the dreaded Walmart. Lots of chains which I try to avoid as much as possible. I stopped coming here for dining or donuts at Krispy Kreme as I don't care for them anymore for years now. Much better choices elsewhere. Traffic got congested in the area, I even saw accidents happen. Also, no one wants to give your turn here at Stop signs. It makes it more stressful.

    I am so surprised that I haven't done a review on Americana at Brand for all these years that I…read morehave been going there, shopping at their finest stores, and eating at their finest restaurants, which my friends and I always had the pleasure of doing. It has been a while since I'd gone there, up until last night around 6:30 pm. We didn't go out to dinner, but had few things from their cute stands that sell coffee, pretzels, and ice cream. Sat outside to watch the water show that comes on every hour. It is SO beautiful, refreshing on any day, especially during evening time to closing time. They have variety of things to do there. There is everything for everyone to keep them busy. It's breathtaking and just simply wonderful & green all around you. Some of the great places to dine are the Cheesecake Factory, an Italian restaurant called Amici. They have fine, delicious Italian food. Have been there few times, and once on a date. They gave a 2 spirit Barnes & Noble for book lovers, an AMC movie theatre that used to be Pacific Theaters, A Seabutter Sushi restaurant that is very good and romantic with patio seating. They also have the Mexican restaurant Frida.. Just to name a few of their iconic, yet high end businesses. You can walk, take the trolley, take your dogs for a walk, and simply enjoy the fresh air. Their Christmas lighting ceremony is MAGNIFICENT!! Must see!!! I am glad we were able to go there again last night and had a FANTASTIC time!! Service is on point. They are always cleaning the place, plenty of restrooms to use, spotless clean, and you can find parking anywhere in their parking structures and outside. Whatever that you do and spend time and money on, is valuable and SO worth it to me and so many others. 10/10.

Super cute with lots…read moreof restaurants for dining and a massive food Court upstairs, if you want a quick bite on the run! I love all the specialty stores there.... such as the NBA store, I had to buy a Lakers jersey with my favorite player, Luka 77! The prices not bad compared to Universal! I don't know how parents do it these days with the price of souvenirs, food, drink! Save up so you don't miss the experience! We found the chocolate emporium which is a steam punk theme! We met Thomas the bartender, I love a bartender who makes you feel special from the time you seat down until you leave! The happy hour was perfect! A glass of Chardonnay for $8. The food was super good there too! No charge to split a salad! We went early before the park was closed so it was nice to have no crowds. If you have any questions, please reach out to me!! Have fun and go makes some memories!!

    Visually, superior to Downtown Disney. Selection of shops and eateries, I cannot say the same. I've…read moregone to Disney more, so apologies for the constant comparison. Parking varies if on if you have a pass, if you're just going to the theme park, and if you're going to do validation only for City Walk. Though, it's pretty cool that it's reduced after 5 PM (technically you can do this for Disney, and , but it's after 7-ish instead). The scale of everything and the neon lights, and photo ops are much more impressive. Great to look at, at night and this was the location of my senior prom. Wish I had the intellect to just wander around City Walk instead of being forced to be in one of their event buildings only with some of the most cringe people I've met in my life. But I digress. Dining options are tad more limited with more desserts and quick service, standard fast food chains (probably the craziest Raising Cane's I've ever seen), and a couple of sit down restaurants. Neat that they have a Pink's since it's so closely tied to Hollywood history. For shopping, they do have a bunch of businesses that you can find at your local mall like Lids, Hot Topic, Shoe Palace (lol), Tilly's and much more. I think for the must stops and unique shops, it'd be the Sanrio and Hello Kitty Cafe, that chocolate emporium place (insane name), the Line Friends shop, and of course the shop that sells all the merch from Universal Studios. Due to the distance and the cost, it's not a place I'd go out of my way for, but if you're already at Universal or it's after 5 PM, it's worth it as a tourist and to explore.
