The staff here is so welcoming and sincere, and are not afraid to strike up a warm conversation.

Used to love this place but now it's more of a buyer beware situation, based on a recent…read moreexperience. I purchased two candle holders and later got a voicemail saying I owed an additional 33 cents because they'd undercharged me. Odd amount to call about, but I was out of town and didn't call back right away. The next day I answered a call (that turned out to be from them) asking for someone else entirely. Assuming the number was possibly spam, I googled the number, saw it was Trove, and then emailed them directly, saying I understood I owed 33 cents and asking for an invoice. They corrected me. I actually owed $33, not 33 cents, they couldn't send an invoice by email, and wanted me to call and give my card info over the phone instead. After everything already off with this (the wrong number call, the 33-cent voicemail, no email invoicing), I didn't feel comfortable reading my card number to someone over the phone. I offered to stop by in person instead, and asked in advance if they could have a receipt ready showing my original 33 cent charge, so I wouldn't be making the trip for nothing. I rearranged my lunch break to make this happen and showed up as planned. No receipt. They said they'd emailed it, but I'd specifically asked for a printed copy, the least they could do given this was their error to begin with. That request took several days notice and still didn't happen. Their printer was "acting up," so I got no receipt for the original charge and none for the new $33 charge, either! An error on their end turned into a special trip, wasted time on my lunch break, and still no paperwork to show for any of it. Disappointing customer service, especially when the customer is the one who has to burn their own time fixing your mistake.

Every style. Every budget.

This grand opening does include similar treats like a free UNIQLO tote, free goodies like chips and mochi, and a Taiko Drum performance. I did buy some more stuff because this store location did provide a nice deal on the cotton boxer briefs. You can tell that the black was popular and so there was only a few navy left, so I was able to grab a few. I think the store still needs to work out its kinks with the self register because it was still adding items to my cart that I clearly did not have. This has happened in the other UNIQLO stores too, so I think it's a bit too sensitive. Overall, I really like UNIQLO and welcome the addition to the mall!

As is probably true of many, I rarely write reviews unless my experience was particularly miserable…read moreor over-the-top brilliant. I was recently shopping for a birthday present for my girlfriend. Browsing the women's section can be both awkward and overwhelming. I found Sarai, who paid attention to the criteria, set me at ease, and was conversational. She was patient for twenty minutes at which point she was called away. Mandatory break? An irate customer asking specifically for her? Who knows? But before leaving, she introduced me to Sonia, gave her the breakdown, and wished me well. It was seamless, and Sonia was on point. While I was at the register, Sarai popped in to ask if the mission was accomplished. I felt like I was at a Beverly Hills store where personalized service meets a hefty receipt. The only reason I might have been tempted to leave 4.5 stars is because I could not get the damn customer service "scan me" sheet to work on any device. But that's not on the floor salespeople, so bravo.

I had such a wonderful experience at Nordstrom Rack, especially with Chema (she's a twin -- both of…read morethem were great!) and the team. Chema truly went above and beyond. I had already spent nearly two hours looking for an outfit for a last-minute business event and was honestly about to leave empty-handed when she offered to help me. She then spent over an hour with me, going back and forth to the fitting room countless times, pulling pieces, helping me put outfits together, and even making sure everything stayed within my budget. She was incredibly patient, kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in helping me find something I felt good in. It honestly felt like having a personal shopper! I walked in stressed and ready to give up, and walked out feeling taken care of and excited about what I found. The service at this location has been great overall, but Chema made this visit exceptional. I will absolutely come back specifically to shop with her ,next time I'm not just browsing, I'm looking for Chema! Thank you for such amazing service.

I love everything about this place. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with the best energy, which set the tone for my entire experience. My friend and I were looking for fabric for a custom made costume and Bo and Kay helped not only make the costume, but helped hone our ideas into something amazing. The merchandise is amazing, I could have easily spent my entire day in the shop looking at all of the different colors and outfits. So appreciative of their help and how incredibly friendly they are. Super excited for them and for the performance I have coming up where I get to rock their outfit! read more
