There's a good mix of restaurants, clothing, and jewelry shops, most of which are high quality brands and the mall constantly stays fresh and vibrant although I do wish they had more restrooms outside of the ones below Industrious. Some weekends they have a maker fare or live music, but most of the time the fountain is just central to the comfortable seating area, that during the winter gets some decor for the holidays. All in all, I really do love this area and still find myself coming back year after year.

Athleta is still around and I notice many other fitness clothing stores. I remember Louis Vitton store open, now is gone. Hope more new stores will come.

The Green Valley Shopping Center AKA the Smart and Final Parking Lot consists of mostly…read morerestaurants, a barber shop, Thrift shop, Sherwin Williams paint store, gas station and few others. Although, this shopping center is quite small, it gets very busy on the weekends with families lining up for haircuts in the early mornings, or getting your favorite doughnuts from Christys doughnuts. This location does have some great restaurants such as: China Gourmet, Slow G's, Christys doughnuts, Taco Bell. Non restaurants include: Sherwin Williams, Smart and Final, Danville Barber Shop, Hospice Thrift Shop, Copy Center, Hair salon. Overall: A nice shopping center that is very convenient to pick up anything you might need if just passing by.

Very square mall. I have been there since the grand opening nearly eight years ago. It's very…read moremodern, spacious, and clean. Not many retail stores, but more fancy eateries for the upper class. There's also an Equinox, which is a famous fancy gym. Everything is almost expensive as Santana Row. Some security guards are walking around on duty. The parking garage is a bit curved when you enter and exit. I only like the Christmas tree area, which is beautiful to look at in the evening, including the water fountain in the kids' area. It's nice to walk around and take profile pictures, but not much to do until the holiday season. Overall, this is great for families to hang out and for rich people to dine in.

Shout-out to the unknown vendor who built the 2026 "Year of the Horse" photo booth. A heads-up: the space availability numbers posted outside the parking garage weren't accurate at all, which made the search more frustrating than it needed to be. It was also tough navigating through the crowds at times, especially because the toddlers in our group couldn't see anything over the crowds. That said, City Center Bishop Ranch truly offers something for everyone in the family. There's a splash pad that's perfect for little ones, plenty of restaurants at every price point for picky eaters, and even fun options for adults- like a DIY cocktail crawl for the 21+ crowd. We once made it our mission to try every margarita on property! I ran into my retired high school teacher, bartending at THE LOT (movie theater). On the shopping front, I do all my Anthropologie returns here, and I've been refreshing my inbox waiting for news about Rico Rico Taco opening here (I'm obsessed with their Oakland location). As for dining, I've enjoyed meals and treats from Slanted Door, Salt & Straw, Roam Artisan Burgers, Philz Coffee, Mendocino Farms, Marugame Udon, Delarosa, and Boba Guys. I still can't believe that sleepy San Ramon now has so many fantastic eateries and experiences all in one place. It's quickly become a go-to meeting place for our extended family.

I came to Blackhawk Plaza to go to the Blackhawk Museum…read more It was a Saturday afternoon, and although the Plaza was really nice, almost all the stores here were closed. It is very picturesque here, with the ducks swimming in the man made ponds, the waterfalls and the fountains. But with most places being closed, and the place being pretty much empty, other than the Blackhawk Museum which was excellent, it really took a lot away from this place. You could tell this was a very happening place when all was well, especially in this area of Danville!!

I used to go to the Sachi Sushi Japanese restaurant next to the Andaman Thai restaurant in the plaza that is now closed. There was also Filipino Papaya Grill that is also now closed as well as the Firehouse No 37 and Teaspoon are all no longer there. L & L Hawaiian BBQ is taking over where Teaspoon was located. The Imperial Delight, The Clove Indian cuisine, haircut place called Mimi's cuts, Learning Express toy store and Anderson Bakery are all still there. I shop at Trader Joe and get ice cream at Cold Stone often, so glad at least both business are still there. My Gym, Sport Clips Haircuts, and Digby's premium donut are all still around as well as Starbucks Coffee. My Gym is a great place to get the kids there to stay active. It looks like Andaman Thai restaurant is going to move over to where the Firehouse No 37 used to be soon. I hope other businesses will come here to fill up all the vacant lease soon. I think it would be nice for the Market Place Shopping Plaza to put some holiday decorations like Christmas Tree or other decors to make the plaza more festive and inviting for the holidays.
