    I always love stopping in to Muji when I'm in NYC! Similar to IKEA but on a much smaller scale at this store, you can find kitchenware, clothing, organization tools, bedroom and bathroom items, and stationary here. If I was stocking a house from scratch, this would 100% be where I would go to get plates, organizational tools, and items for the bathroom and kitchen. Alas, I am not and have to pack a carry-on to fly home, so I bee-line straight for the stationary. Their displays of stationary are so satisfying and I can never help myself! This time, I picked up a handful of markers, pens, and highlighters - plus some post-it notes and sticky tabs. The price on the stationary is quite reasonable, but I find some of the organizational acrylic items to be a bit pricier. The clothing isn't my style, but they have some great basics available. I found the service at the front to be helpful and efficient during checkout. Always a fun stop to peruse and get inspiration for home items!

    When I told my friend from Nepal that I got my pens from Muji, she burst into laughter. Turns out, "Muji" means something quite different (and not exactly flattering) in her language. But hey, cultural quirks aside, I love Muji! This particular Muji is alright. You can find just about anything you need, but I have to admit, I prefer the one in Manhattan. The Manhattan location has more floors, which means more to explore. This one feels like the CliffsNotes version of that Muji, with a smaller diffuser section and a more sparse clothing selection, though still substantial. Overall, this Muji is a solid spot for your minimalist needs, just not as expansive as its Manhattan counterpart. For that, I'll place my funky Yelp star at the "Good" indicator.

    "I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so" (The Vapors) Ever hear of Muji? I hadn't until a few days ago when we saw one while wandering through Williamsburg Brooklyn. Now I've learned the chain was founded in Japan in 1980, and they sell a huge variety of household goods, kitchenware, health and beauty aids, writing supplies (think pads and colorful gel pens), clothing, and food. There are over 1,000 MUJI stores on Planet Earth that sell over 7,000 items! They're named after the Japanese phrase "Mujirushi Ryohin" which roughly translates into "no-brand quality goods." They sell No Frills, simple, utilitarian stuff. So don't expect to see any fancy pants pretentious logo endorsed brands here. They have their own minimalist spin on marketing and consumerism, replacing "This is what I really want" with "This will do." We had a blast wandering through the store and I walked out with a nice blue plaid flannel shirt for $20 and a Hot and Sour soup mix for $6. Now I'm a fan!

    Good location of this Japanese chain. This is a great place for basics and well designed organizing supplies. The luggage looks very sturdy also. It can get crowded on the weekends so beware.

    There's a lot of bad reviews for Muji Williamsburg and I wish I listened and went somewhere else. I went to Muji giving them the benefit of the doubt and was lied to and stollen from. On Saturday the 7th I brought my bff who's never been to muji and bought lots of favs including an on sale item an item that was on the clearance rack. There was a bunch of pj tops (on sale because there was no matching bottom and the color and fabric was last season) on the rack and so I picked a light blue one. The rack said all items on this rack received an extra 40% off! Score! I made my purchases and we went on to a long day of being a tourist. BUT when I got home I realized Muji charged the full amount for the pajama top as if it was a set of pajamas and no extra discount. Ok so they made a mistake, mistakes happen. I think maybe I would catch it if the screen had an itemized display but their display is small, lags and is difficult to see for someone with disabilities. On Sunday, my last day of the trip, I called them up to see what could be done. I had a birthday party to go to and ABSOLUTELY no time to go back to the store. They said the only way to fix it was to physically come into the store with the card. :( This is so disappointing! What if I had already left the state? They found my receipt, knew what went wrong and told me they would fix it no problem right when I got there so I wouldn't have to wait in line. They also told me I didn't have to bring in the shirt which was nice because I didn't want to carry the pajama shirt everywhere I went. This is pretty upsetting because that means if I have flew back home and realizes what happened, they would have just stolen 34 bucks from me. Having to come into the store also meant I would miss the first hour of the party, but it was the only option because sorry, I'm not a millionaire and can't afford something that should be 20 dollars and pay the full price of 54 for a sale item. I get there and the person who I talked to on the phone her name started with a V was ready to help me. But then she said that I couldn't get the addition 40% off discount. I thought this was weird. It was on the rack. And it was upsetting because not only did they make a mistake, not be able to fix it over the phone, meaning I had to take the subway an HOUR to get to the store, be late to the party, I was also now being lied to and scammed. So they brought out another manager, I was relieved, but then he wouldn't tell me his name which I thought was really strange. He asked me to go in front of the desk so now I couldn't see the computer screen. The manager became really confrontational saying that the pajama top was in the wrong spot and couldn't get an extra discount. He continued to say it wasn't his fault the pajama top was in the wrong area. But as a shop keeper it actually IS his responsibility to put items where they belong and label them correctly. It was not my responsibility as a customer. I've been a manager of a retail store before and honestly I've seen it all -and this was a really easy fix. And I was upset because they refused to be empathic at all. But being a manager in the past, I didn't scream, throw things, or call names cause that's unacceptable. Still this managers, only response was to police my tone saying that if I was nice he would have helped me. I can't help but wonder that if I was not a woman of color, I probably would have been treated differently. He took zero responsibility or accountability for his actions and had no empathy what so ever. He refused to call his manager or give me his name or give me his managers name. Which again, suspicious. He said the best he could do was give me 20% off the sale price which was 50% off (because again it was half of a pajama set) so 70% off -Fine. I am still being scammed -it should be 40% off as advertised but I said fine because I didn't want to spend any more time being berated. I told him the only name I had was the name on the receipt the first person who made the mistake a woman who's name started with A and I didn't think it was fair for them to be responsible for his actions -then he told me his name was "Saul" and was the "visuals manager". I took a picture of him because who knows if that's really his name but not posting here out of decency. On my flight back looked at the receipt to write all this and "Saul" only did the return with the 50% off price and only 10% off instead of 20 that he promised. He lied to my face. It makes sense why he was so secretive about his name. He was clearly doing something wrong and knew it and enjoyed lying, arguing and tone policing a woman of color. People deserve better than this. There were so many opportunities to make it right and instead it was more important to Muji to rip off the customer than have integrity. Muji if you are ok as a business with your employees treating people like this then shame on you.

    Luckily this Nordstrom Rack is close to the train station so it is very convenient to commute here…read more Came here to find a sterling silver bracelet or necklace by Argento and there were a few sterling silver left. I must admit Nordstrom organizes their jewelry well. All the boxes were neatly displayed on their shelves. Just the bad thing is the top shelf is very high and you need assistance or a ladder to look at them so that sucks. This is one of the most organized stores ever with all the accessories lined up and stored in an orderly fashion. There are rarely any loose accessories or misplaced product in the store. Made the shopping vibe feel a lot better. It is also very clean and carpet is nice to walk on without any dirt or loose garbage. By the checkout, there are aisles of mini and travel size lotions and facial cleansers from Kiehl's and Clinique that are almost winding down so they are that popular! I thought the cashiers were kind of slow because there were 3 of them working on the customers when there were so many cashier registers available for employees to go to. I wish they open more registers so the long line can go faster.

    Had a really efficient experience at Nordstrom Rack recently.

Also appreciated the proximity to the train station, which made the entire errand a lot quicker than I anticipated!

From the moment she greeted me, she was warm, friendly, and genuinely interested in helping me find what I needed. I mentioned I was looking for new makeup for an upcoming trip, and Jeri went above and beyond. She gave me excellent recommendations, helped me put together the perfect combinations, and even taught me a few things that I'll definitely carry into my makeup routine moving forward. What stood out most was her patience and professionalism. Even in such a busy store, while working alone, she managed multiple customers flawlessly and with ease. It was honestly impressive and beautiful to watch her handle everything so smoothly without ever making anyone feel rushed. On top of that, she made sure to tell me about current promotions, which helped me save tremendously. I ended up purchasing all of her recommendations and couldn't be happier. Jeri made my shopping experience exceptional, and I will absolutely return to see her again for future purchases. Highly recommend! RR (Aruba lady)

    Date of visit: April 12, 2026…read more This location is very sneakily hidden on the edge of the World Trade Center complex--we actually had walked past it a couple times without even knowing it was there! There are signs as you enter that they are remodeling, and while this is true, there are areas that were not being remodeled that definitely needed some TLC, such as the entry area that looked like it hadn't been cleaned since before COVID. The store is multiple levels and probably the largest Marshall's I've ever been to, though the layout of the building makes navigating a bit tricky in some instances, such as the L-shaped men's area. Staff were nonexistent as we navigated the store and were barely present for checkout as well. We did find a couple things and took advantage of the no sales tax on clothing in New York, too!

    This is a nice Marshalls but couldn't find any baby items in this location. It is very deep down…read more You have two levels underneath the first floor so there is no phone signal but there is WiFi. Although the WiFi did not work on my phone today so it sucked. My phone just did not have service! There are cashiers on both levels so you don't need to line up on the first level. They have a good amount of beauty and cosmetics in stock. Nice selection of kids' book bags and purses. Today I came here to check out the Halloween decor and they have a nice selection of Hello Kitties that dance and sing. There was also a 2 feet big Hello Kitty witch stuffed animal for $29.95! It's a good price for that size! I quickly bought it because it was so cute and big. They got a lot of Martha Stewart decor that is very pretty for any holidays. Lots of decor for sale. The clothing section especially with the dresses are mostly flimsy in my opinion. The laced ones are very thin and sheer. Not enough coverage. I love their 99 cents shopping tote bags! They have nice prints although some of them look weird. It's a repetitive patterned print. This time for 2025 Halloween, they got the ghost theme with cute ghosts everywhere.

Last week I checked it out to see if it was on sale and to my delight it was. Bergdorf's had deeply discounted it, and I was able to use the new customer discount on top of that to get an extra 15% off. The final price was about 60% off retail. The bag arrived six days later, boxed nicely in a Loewe dust bag. I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

The store is a little too ultra-high-end luxury for me, but it is a legendary New York institution and a unique pinnacle of high-end shopping, so I don't mind following my happy wife around. This review is mainly, though, for the fragrances. There was a fragrance specialist named El-Aton Georges, who was eager to use his knowledge to help us, since I am so picky. He made it fun. It was like, "Okay, you may detect notes of this and that" even though I would be detecting opening notes of "a grandma apple putting her sandalwood cigarettes out into a bar of Irish Spring" or "a leather lemon changing motor oil while eating linen popcorn in a savannah rain, with end notes of Lil' Debbie Cosmic Brownie" So, look for El-Aton, and tell him I sent you. He is quite the Con-nose-seur and he welcomes you all.
