    I wanted to run in to grab my free item at Bath & Body, and it was madness. Santa was there, and…read morelots of people shopping before the holidays. Soon as I got out of my car and was walking up, a man came up to me right away asking me for money. You need to definitely have your head on a swivel. I prefer to buy my items online during the holiday just to avoid the crowds. 11/30/25

    The Antelope Valley Mall isn't what it used to be. It used to feel like a fun, lively place to shop…read moreand hang out, but now it's pretty run-down and half-empty. A lot of the stores that used to make it great have closed, and what's left feels limited and outdated. The mall itself looks like it hasn't been updated in years -- the floors, lighting, and restrooms could really use some attention. It also doesn't feel very safe at times, especially in the parking lot during the evening. Security presence is hit or miss, and there are often groups of people just hanging around without shopping. Food court options are okay but not great, and customer service in many of the stores seems tired or short-staffed. It's honestly disappointing, because this used to be one of the main places to shop in the Antelope Valley. Overall, it feels like the mall has lost a lot of its energy. Unless there's a specific store you need to visit, it's probably easier to just shop online or head to a different shopping area.

    They've made some nice improvements to this mall. Lots of things for families to do such as a…read moretrain, slime making store, ball pit play place, a small arcade and a library. Outside there is also a play area and a cute pond with turtles. They have your typical stores like JC Penny, Macy's, and Bath and Body Works. My only complaint is the sky high prices at the food court (it's really a rip off). Other than that, I'd recommend.

    I came to Valencia Town Center (VTC) in the City of Valencia because there was a Yelp event at…read moreSolita Tacos & Margaritas. Yes, I come from a far. Btw, it was an amazing event! VTC is within vicinity of three streets, McBean Parkway, Magic Mountain Parkway, and Valencia Blvd. It is a good size outside shopping center. It has two floors. Parking is plenty. Tip of the day is to park close to where you'll be spending most of your time. Otherwise, you may need to do some walking. Luckily, Solita Tacos & Margaritas was located along side the parking area. I didn't have to walk too far in to get to them. Thank you! I didn't get a chance to peruse this center much during my visit. I hope to one day be back to explore it a bit more. Just to name a handful of restaurants that I would want to check out the next time I return...

    Safe Haven for great food!…read more I love Haven City Market. It's an outdoor food court with lots to offer. I enjoy the idea of being able to go to different places and sample an item from everywhere lol That's so fun. I basically did that on my recent visit lol I hit the shrimp shack, sticky mango and the pupusa place. All were great! I would eat the shrimp tacos and sticky mango again. Service was good too. The shrimp tacos too a long time, but that's alright. Ambiance is busy and loud. It's a food court, so people are walking around to different areas. There are tables and chairs throughout to sit down.

    Haven City is constantly evolving. There's lots of new restaurants and some old ones have gone…read more Lots of events and entertainment. This location is located off Haven Avenue and has a large parking lot. Depending on the events it can get crowded and a bit congested. When it's too busy it's probably awesome for the businesses but it creates long lines and difficulty finding seating and outdoor parking. Many of the restaurants have bright colors and neon signs advertising their products. I like that there's a variety of foods to choose from and that some places offer vegan, vegetarian and pescatarian options, which can sometimes be difficult to locate. Overall it's a nice place to visit with family or friends.
