    BEWARE! White mold lined the entire bottom of the cup. The chips were stuck to the mold
    Lance N.

    I bought Jaga Choco Chips from Daiso and the entire bottom of the container had white mold and the chips were stuck to the mold at the bottom. I didn't realize until I reached the bottom. I called the store and they told me I had to come at a later time for a refund. I asked if I could just send a photo of the receipt and picture of the food I didn't want to be carrying moldy food and a receipt I had to fish out of the trash and do a round trip for a $2.75 refund. They said that's all they could offer. I had to take the day off because I felt unwell after eating the moldy food but that wasn't even a concern of theirs. I am so disgusted by this entire experience. Avoid their food products.

    Average. Decent sized compared to the other Daiso locations I've been to, but this one looked very low stocked. There were barely any items on the shelves, but I guess that's good if you don't like it when stores are too cluttered. They also seemed to have all of the usual items that you'd find at the other locations as well as the same prices. Our cashier was really friendly and nice as he checked out our items. Not bad!

    OK I posted a review for the wrong Daiso. As far as this Daiso goes it's actually similar in that it's a good sized of one of the Daiso stores but as of my last visit, their stock isn't as great as some of the other locations. My favorite locations - aside from the store in Little Tokyo which is just insane - are the stores down in the Gardena/Torrance area. This Daiso on Western is also in a highly congested part of Los Angeles so getting to it is a challenge. Once you do get there they do have parking, which is nice. But as a chain Daiso always has a fun selection of products: housewares, Asian snacks, office supplies, etc and at GREAT prices (most things are around $1.75 US and then some "expensive" items might be like $5 or $10). However I do notice - since my focus is usually on beauty supplies because I'm a makeup artist - that selection really varies by store.

    This place is really cute and there are a lot of good finds that will surprise you. They sell a wide selection of items from kitchenwares, plates, bowl, utensils, and the like to make up, cleaning implements, snacks (chips, chocolates, and candies). The items are reasonably priced. If the item has no price tag then it is priced at a $1.75, there are also price charts posted for each and every aisle to determine the pricing of items. The only con when we shopped today was there was no available bag for the items that we purchased. Good thing, we had an extra bag to place the items we bought.

    Located in the MaDang shopping center, this location of the very popular 'thousand-yen' retail store selling Japanese products, is a great place to pick up daily essentials (along with other things that you didn't know you needed....). It's very similar to the dollar stores that are all around us, except for more Asian related products (which is why Daiso can be found in areas of higher East Asian populations like Little Tokyo, Sawtelle, and K-Town).

    Located inside MaDang Courtyard.There's really nothing to see here other than some overpriced Japanese kitchen & bathroom stuff and candies that you can find easily in other Asian groceries Skip this one & go to H Market in the ground level!

    I love Daiso! Even though most of the items are $1.50, a lot of the merchandise is actually good quality. They were selling disposable face masks located at the cashier. They had shelves and shelves of hand sanitizer at a reasonable price. This location takes safety precautions seriously. All of the employees were wearing face coverings. There might be a line to get in the store because they have minimized the store occupancy. The parking garage entrance is on Manhattan. Prior to the pandemic, parking was a hit or miss. Now, parking is easy to find as there arent a lot of shoppers out and about now.

    I recently visited the Nordstrom Rack on 7th and Fig in Downtown Los Angeles, and it was by far the…read moredirtiest, dustiest, and most unorganized Nordstrom Rack I've ever been to. Empty shelves dusty and empty. The store looked unkept, racks were messy, and the overall shopping environment felt neglected compared to other locations. What made the experience worse was how uncomfortable we were made to feel almost immediately after entering the store. Within about two minutes of stepping inside, we were being followed by asset management . It was obvious and unnecessary, especially since we had just arrived and were simply looking for a few specific items we were there to purchase. Unfortunately, this wasn't the first time I've experienced something like this at Nordstrom. The same thing happened to me at the Westfield Culver City (Fox Hills) location after years of shopping there without any issue. As someone who has regularly spent $400 or more every visit at Nordstrom and Nordstrom Rack, it's extremely disappointing to feel singled out and followed around the store while shopping. I just had to leave. During this visit, I also noticed other shoppers in the store (not being followed), I guess other race of people do not steal, just mines. We must be followed! I don't have to shop there. Despite what appeared to be suspicious behavior elsewhere, the focus remained on following us instead of paying attention to actual store issues or potential theft. Nordstrom employees should focus on maintaining their stores and treating all customers equally rather than making loyal customers feel targeted. We recently moved to a luxury apartment near by, but because of these experiences, I will no longer be shopping at Nordstrom or Nordstrom Rack.

There was no one to say "hello", "can I help you?". Waited for like 5 minutes, and then this young lady by the name of Ashley, came towards me and asked me how she could have been an assistance to me. She was polite and helpful. I told her that I have an upcoming wedding and need some nice attire for the event. Right away she took me to where their dresses/suits are and showed me a few things. Got me a dressing room for me to try couple of the items that she selected for me. The racks for some of their items were too cramped up. The store on the other side was very clean.. Tried them on, and I liked the way the glittery purple suit fit me. It was perfect and my size. Hugged my sexy curves and made me feel really good! As I was browsing the aisles, I noticed a few other things... some I needed and some I liked. With that being said, got an imitation of Donna Karan's Perfect Scents (the brand) perfume, Cashmere Mist. It has a very soothing, clean scent to it and was only $20.00. It worked out perfectly, since I ran out of my last bottle. Then I saw this beautiful narrow royal blue vase, this pretty, yellowish/mustard color floral choker, which can also be used as a headpiece. As I was walking down their aisles, I also saw those comfortable Minnetonka flat shoes in color red. Tried them on and it hugged my feet perfectly. It was just what I needed. The fabric was so soft and I believe made of velvet. It was on sale from $65.00 to $30.00. Got 2 pairs of earrings, 4 nail polishes, and that's all that I bought. You can find some great deals at Nordstrom Rack with affordable prices. They also have other brands by famous designers. Bought few candy bars at the register along with a small bottle of water. They do have parking and restrooms. Thank you all very much!

The outside is currently under renovations, but very much still accessible with tables and chairs outdoors, part of the plaza. Target Starbucks is to the left when you enter. Team members here are personable to a degree and you can find most things you desire in a pinch. They do get shopped pretty hard so I keep that in mind being the closest larger in size Target (the one on Highland is a lot smaller in scale) and most things are under lock and key. I was hoping they'd have a little more variety for frozen goods and groceries especially of the non-dairy and vegan friendly variety but it was pretty similar to others nearby which is disappointing. Haven't been inside in a few year and I will say it feels even cleaner but not the most welcoming overall. Okay prices for the most part, definitely not as many sales items here.
