Excellent selection. However, the female owner was rude and asked if I "were to look through every…read morerack." Made it seem like I was going to steal something. I read the previous reviews on Yelp. On spot. I noticed the cashier kept suggesting to this taller blonde lady about how the dress will look beautiful on her. She suggested that the blonde lady try on the dress. However with me, the cashier ignored me. Wow. Talk about stellar (selective) customer service. The owner mentioned, "I buy everything and I need to pay the rent". Why say that to a complete stranger? Ok. I will take my business elsewhere then.

I wish I would've looked up the reviews before going in.

I said I'm not shopping for myself, I'm shopping for someone else and then She stood right in front of the rack so I couldn't even shop it. I picked up earrings at one point to look at that were out in the open not in a case and she practically jumped on me. I would absolutely never go back in the store and would never purchase anything. She was the most unwelcoming person I've ever encountered.

Okay - as a guy I'm not really a big shoe person. Can't say the same for my wife... We were in the…read morearea and she wanted to stop in here. What a great, locally owned store. The owner has been in the same location for about 40 years. He has a pretty wide selection for men and women. You won't find Prada in here. But you will find popular brands at very fair prices. I found the most comfortable pair of sneakers I've ever tried when we were there last week. I've worn them every day since. Normally, if I need shoes (a few times a decade) I end up at Kohl's. The prices here are comparable but since it is locally owned, I would much rather give them my business. Ironically, I walked out buying something and my wife did not. But we are both sold on Athenian. Next time we are in the area, we'll be back.

I hate buying shoes. Big time…read more The people that run the store were very cool and quite helpful. They have all kinds of styles, American and imports - and a strong selection of dress/work shoes. Evidentally the same family has been operating this store from the same location for 37 years now, now being run by a guy named Bill and his brother, and taken over from their father. Perhaps more of note are the prices. I went to DSW recently to buy a few pairs of dress shoes, found nothing that I could walk comfortably in - and everything was pretty pricey. If the average decent shoe I tried on at DSW was 90-135$ - it is of note that at Athenian the prices for the same styles and designers were averaging 49-89$. Hugeness. So, a chronically pissed off shoe customer like myself walked out 20 minutes after I walked in with sweet pairs of Giorgio Brutini and Stacy Adams for about 130$ total. Giggity. The place is a hidden treasure. Go with immediacy.

After exhausting every other option on Clark/Wilson, I ended up at Clark Fashion Depot…read more They had the best selection of necklace sets than any other store on the street. When I say necklace sets, I'm talking about the stuff you get from Charming Charlie's. The sets I bought ranged from $4 to $12. Having said that, one of the sets didn't even make it home. As I unloaded my haul for the day, the necklace fell apart. I mean, it was $4 so I wasn't expecting it to last forever but I was hoping I could get one or two uses out of it. The rest of the sets seem to be in one piece (so far). You get what you pay for, but the stuff is cute and the employees aren't harassing which is a plus for these types of shops. Make it your first stop, cause the places next door and across the street have the practically the same items for almost double the price. Oh and there is a $10 minimum.

This gift shop had a wife variety of things. There are plants and pots, clothing, candles, artwork, and so on. Lots of possibilities to find a gift for someone in your life. The shopkeep was welcoming and happy to help if I needed it. I'm not sure if the store is dog friendly to customer's dogs, but could be since the person working had their dog keeping them company.

Once…read moreyou've found the dress you like, she measures you and alters the dress to look amazing on you. You will feel like a princess! They have BEAUTIFUL formals and gowns for all kinds of special occasions. I first came here with my best friend because I needed a dress for a traditional Indian wedding and I had no idea where to begin. Shaheen instantly pulled several options that were gorgeous! My best friend and I had SO much fun looking at all of the stunning gowns that we were ready to buy dresses for events we didn't even have planned yet! Before finding Raaz, I had spent so much time at other dress stores on Devon trying on dresses I didn't feel comfortable in and being told "that looks great on you, you should definitely buy that one". I knew they weren't telling me the truth and just wanted to make a sale. I was feeling totally discouraged before I walked into Raaz, but Shaheen completely changed my experience and I'm so grateful to her for helping me find something I feel beautiful wearing. I've been shopping here for 3 years and have bought dresses for myself, as well as coordinating pieces for my husband. My husband brought his mother here after I had such a great experience and she bought three dresses for events. She was so impressed that I found Raaz and said it was the best dress shop she'd seen on Devon in over 40 years! I typically dread trying on dresses in stores but Raaz is different. Their selection is incredible! I had a hard time choosing just one dress! I can't say enough good things about Raaz and Shaheen is so knowledgeable and has excellent taste. I will be a loyal customer forever and HIGHLY recommend this shop!
