I visited Hillsdale Mall for the first time in decades!…read more I wanted to drop by and survey the parking near Palette Tea Garden. I decided it was best to park on the roof and take the escalator down to ground level.....right to the restaurant! While I was there, I walked around to see what the indoor mall was like. It's a nice shopping mall with a variety of shops, restaurants, and services. The North Mall has a huge "Dining Terrace" which includes an outdoor patio with fire pits. I like the hand washing area. I heard stories that the owners of the mall want to tear down the enclosed mall and build a mixed use open air mall. The plan is yet to be approved. I like Hillsdale Mall the way it is.

Title: Absolutely disgusting -- do not come here I can't…read morebelieve how dirty and poorly maintained this mall is. The visitor seating area next to Foot Locker smells like throw-up, and the carpets and seats are stained and grimy, like they haven't been cleaned in months. All of the trash bins outside are constantly overflowing, and you can find trash and debris scattered everywhere, which makes walking around gross and unpleasant. During Christmas, the Santa chair for photos is black, sticky, and completely gucky, making what should be a fun experience with kids feel disgusting. The overall smell, dirt, and lack of maintenance make this mall feel unsafe and unhygienic -- honestly, I would never come back and would warn anyone I know to avoid it.

I saw the cutest pants but they didn't have my size at the store, so I figured I'd call a couple weeks later to see if they had any in stock again. The phone rings but no one ever answers. It's not super convenient for me to drive from Foster City to San Carlos for one pair of pants lol, maybe no one is answering my call because of my Fresno area code? Felt like after I called a second time it was intentionally sent to voicemail. Wanted to shop locally but found the pants online for exactly what I would have paid to them. Update: really impressed by the responsiveness from the owner and the ability to acknowledge shortcomings while providing alternative options to contact them. This just shows it's a much better shop than I initially thought.

We have some friends who frequently come here to shop and walk around enjoying the beautiful flowers, sculptures, & water fountains. The center is "Anchored by major department stores like Nordstrom, Macy's, Neiman Marcus, and Bloomingdale's. Also luxury brands like Hermès, Louis Vuitton, Shreveport & Co., Tiffany and popular retailers like Apple, Lululemon, and Kate Spade." Personally, we've dined at Fleming's Steak House, The Melt, McDonald's, True Food Kitchen, and recently Pacific Catch. They recently added a new section which is always fun to see.

The Marketplace at Redwood Shores CA Fri 02/11/22 ©…read moreIt's a shopping center conveniently situated between Redwood Shores Pkwy and Phelps Slough. Anchored by Nob Hill Foods and Amici's East Coast Pizzeria. You'll find several eateries here as well as all your usual suspects, expected & customary stores. I've taken the photos to give you the count. Don't forget Raley's Pharmacy at Nob Hill and Wells Fargo Bank. I came here to meet up with my guys, formerly locals who moved out during the pandemic. They were in town and this strip mall has easy access off 101 Holly Street exit. Close to high tech firms and near walking or running trails along the shores of the lagoon towards the bay. All restaurants in the shopping center offer outside seating, enjoy! Come and have a good time, Cheers! *Grown music, I shed my skin and put my bones into everything I record to it And yet I'm on...

This is an update to my original five star rating from almost 20 years ago. The Shop was a…read morewonderful local gem back then, but now, not so much. In the past year - since the new manager took over - The Shop has totally changed. Prices have gone way up, and the new manager is touting stuff like a whole "St. John's Knits" section which I really don't care about. I also notice that if I come in wearing my sweats & no makeup the manager doesn't say boo to me, but if I come in dressed to the nines then the manager is is super friendly, which I find shallow. She also has a weird policy on "Sales"; in the past, annual end-of-season sales were always promoted ahead of time. But the new manager insists on "flash sales" that aren't advertised, so you just have to stumble upon them by chance. All of this adds up to a poor shopping experience, so I rarely shop there now and I never donate anymore. Bring back the old manager, Robbie; she was wonderful, as are the employees who work there. In fact, the employees (outside of the current mgr) are the only reason I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1.
