Parking is free here. I have been here a few times throughout the years. I drive by a couple time a month, but don't stop in the plaza much. I recently came here to check out Bada Coffee. It replaced Starbucks. There's a nice fountain outside which is great to watch & listen to while sipping coffee. The shops here are: Bada Coffee Ralphs Dollar Tree Jack's Pizza Great Clips Peninsula Urgent Care Dentists of South Bay Sally Beauty Supply Cleaners Taco Bell is at the corner of Calle Mayor & PCH. Not sure how this plaza got its' name, but there is a huge Plaza Mayor that was completed in Madrid, Spain in 1619. That plaza looks to be so different from this one. Looking on Google, there is no count of how many "Plaza Mayor"are in the world! It simply translates to "Main Plaza" but is usually a central public square. Signage with the list of stores here is outdated. They need to update them.

But it has been awhile prior to our first restaurant run. Truly a great beachside destination. Plenty of eateries (and many of them dog friendly!) and shops for everyone's budget. The beach is literally a block or two away and parking isn't horrendously expensive unlike some other beaches or shorelines. (A buck and a half per hour is a steal!) It's a pretty chill and kickback area. Some grub spots have live bands/music you can vibe to. But the best part of the village is definitely walking by the shores! The views. Of the water alongside the mountains are breathtaking. I imagine the best time to come through is during the spring and summer. We have yet to experience the area during the fall and winter seasons. We do intend to find out, though! Will update as needed!

Riviera Village felt like a warm and lively place when I visited with someone and I saw so many…read moreteenagers walking around the shops and enjoying the farmers market. The atmosphere felt cozy and energetic at the same time with music, friendly voices, and the smell of fresh food filling the air. Teenagers would love how easy it is to explore because everything is close together and full of personality. The service at the small shops felt personal and welcoming which made the whole experience feel more meaningful. The value was impressive because there were many affordable treats and unique items that did not feel overpriced. The quality of the stores and food stands was high and everything felt thoughtfully arranged. The selection was wide enough to keep teenagers entertained whether they wanted snacks, clothes, handmade items, or just a fun place to walk. I have only been there once before writing this review but it was one of the most relaxing and enjoyable places I have visited. I highly recommend that teenagers go there because it gives them a chance to feel independent, creative, and connected to a lively community.

Review #993 2026-063…read more Vista Plaza is a business center located off of Pacific Coast Hwy. & Vista Montana. Originally, it was anchored by Kmart/Orchard Supply Hardware (OSH) & Bally Total Fitness, & both were replaced by supermarkets. Tenants (non-exhaustive list): Bank of America Dragon Martial Arts H Mart Groceries & More Kitakata Ramen Ban Nai Michaels O'Reilly Auto Parts Papa Johns Pizza Sprouts Farmers Market The Beach Hut The Salvation Army Family Store I used to work out with my mentor at Bally's & didn't come to Vista Plaza for anything else until OSH replaced Kmart, but it was short-lived since they didn't even last a year, though I picked up some wonderful veggie starter plants. And later Sprouts when Bally's closed. I had an unfavorable review of Sub Club Italian Deli (Review #536) for older deli meats sale that they were trying to pawn off due to the pandemic lockdown; my fam got sick from the deli meats. I had to remove it because it was owned by a colleague, & didn't want any repercussions against my spouse. This spot was later replaced about 2 years ago by Kitakata Ramen Ban Nai (refer to Review #965), a change for the better. H also took her taekwondo belt test at Dragon Martial Arts. The main studio on Sepulveda Blvd. where she took her lessons was a smaller space, so it was held at the Vista Plaza location. My daughter's godmother & godsister has been thrifting a lot since the pandemic lockdown & loves shopping at The Salvation Army Family Store. I was fortunate enough to have hand-me-downs from her godmother during infancy & toddler years, my niece during elementary & middle school, & my esthetician's petite adult daughter for her middle & high school years, saving me thousands of dollars & recycling clothes for Mother Earth. We're usually here at their specialty sales like "fill-a-bag" or 2 day promo in January &/or summer. Vista Plaza isn't dense like some others in the South Bay, but it's popular enough with 2 markets: Sprouts & H Mart at the helm.

And what a great discovery this place is: there's a Salvation Army, a bank, Sprouts, a nail salon, a bakery and a travel agency, to name a few. I ended up staying and checking out more than just H-Mart! Came through on a mid-day Saturday and it wasn't as crowded as I erroneously expected. Maybe the parking Gods had their mercy on me that day. Good first stop. Looking forward to more!

I can always find a bargain at one of the stores to fit my budget. I love that they added JD Sports in the place of Big 5. I get all my hubby's Vapormax shoes from JD. Great choice mall management. I appreciate that the mall grounds inside and out are kept clean. It's so convenient when you need an item asap and can't wait for delivery. The lots are pretty well lit and mall security is visible. I even saw mall security give a citation to someone who was double parked. I didn't know that could happen. Overall I give our little mall an A+! In a time when malls are closing I'm glad we still have ours! #southbaypavillion aka Carson Mall

Within its vicinity is Nordstrom Rack, Living Spaces, Total Wine, Panera, Islands, Chronic Tacos, Sprouts, Ulta and Bank of America. There are a couple more spots I'm missing, but you get the point: one stop shop! Parking is difficult at Total Wine and Bank of America, depending on the timing. There are tons available closer to Nordstrom Rack/Sprouts area, if you don't mind a little walk. There is a really good variety of businesses in this general area. And I really like that it's close enough to home. The convenience of it all is what drives me back over and over again.

Needless to say we were highly disappointed during our visit to Del Amo.

Review #992 2026-062…read more Eastgate Plaza is small plaza with diverse dining & shopping options located on the busy corner of Western Ave. & Carson St. It was a popular stop when Toyota was located in Torrance, particularly the Japanese restaurants to entertain their visiting counterparts, that we often reserve a table or dine right when the restaurant opens for lunch. I mostly frequent here for Mo-Mo-Paradise (Review #468), Daiso, 85°C Bakery & Cafe (Review #69), Sushi Nozomi, Red Rock Express (Review #857).
