We have some friends who frequently come here to shop and walk around enjoying the beautiful flowers, sculptures, & water fountains. The center is "Anchored by major department stores like Nordstrom, Macy's, Neiman Marcus, and Bloomingdale's. Also luxury brands like Hermès, Louis Vuitton, Shreveport & Co., Tiffany and popular retailers like Apple, Lululemon, and Kate Spade." Personally, we've dined at Fleming's Steak House, The Melt, McDonald's, True Food Kitchen, and recently Pacific Catch. They recently added a new section which is always fun to see.

This is an update to my original five star rating from almost 20 years ago. The Shop was a…read morewonderful local gem back then, but now, not so much. In the past year - since the new manager took over - The Shop has totally changed. Prices have gone way up, and the new manager is touting stuff like a whole "St. John's Knits" section which I really don't care about. I also notice that if I come in wearing my sweats & no makeup the manager doesn't say boo to me, but if I come in dressed to the nines then the manager is is super friendly, which I find shallow. She also has a weird policy on "Sales"; in the past, annual end-of-season sales were always promoted ahead of time. But the new manager insists on "flash sales" that aren't advertised, so you just have to stumble upon them by chance. All of this adds up to a poor shopping experience, so I rarely shop there now and I never donate anymore. Bring back the old manager, Robbie; she was wonderful, as are the employees who work there. In fact, the employees (outside of the current mgr) are the only reason I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1.

As we walk in, we overheard the older woman clerk with white botched hair (Mary?) speak to another customer "that's too big for you" in an annoyed manner, as if the customer was bothersome. The clerk's demeanor and attitude seemed quite negative. I proceeded to walk toward the home section, clerk tells me they're about to close, so I tell her, I'm just here to look around for the last few minutes. I walk past her to the home section, found a painting I wanted to purchase to add to my collection. She speaks over my shoulders "you should look online, they have everything there" in a tone that's very hostile and agitated. She then proceeds to tell me they open at 10 etc, in a manner that just wants to get rid of people from the store. I've never encountered such a lack of professionalism, and negative feeling from a clerk in all of Menlo Park retail. The entire 3 minutes encounter with her was distasteful. We were out by 4:49, without a painting. Ps. Take your money somewhere else.

This is my new go-to vintage shop on the Peninsula. The shop is extremely well-curated, most of the…read moreclothes are from the 90s and 2000s, and there is a large variety of brands, items, shapes, designs, etc., with one unifying theme - focus on natural fibers. Everything was cotton, wool, leather, etc. - I found very few synthetics. I loved my first trip to this shop; there were half a dozen items I wanted to take home, but I managed to keep my wallet intact and walked out with 3 new purchases: two 100% cotton button-downs, and a gorgeous navy blazer. I did plenty of brand discovery too, and found many gorgeous items from brands I'd never heard of before, but which I will definitely look into now! Honestly, I could've spent HOURS in this store, and the only reason I didn't buy more was because I'm 6 months pregnant and couldn't try on any bottoms! The owner, Johanna, has great taste, and she has curated such an amazing collection of goods, clothes, jewelry, shoes, etc. There is also a really comfortable small dressing / try on room in the back. The prices are reasonable, and Johanna often has sales and promotions going on which make the prices even more palatable. This is the perfect shop for someone like me, who only wants to shop vintage / second-hand, only wants to buy natural fibers, but do not have the time or patience at this point in my life to sift through Goodwill bins to find the perfect piece. Johanna has done the hard work of curation for me. Thank you!! I will be back and can't wait to be a frequent shopper here in the future!

However, the customer service is atrocious. The first time I visited in December, I was largely ignored until I brought my $1,500 worth of purchases to the register. End of day, holiday season...I get it. I'd want to go home too. But I asked nothing of you as a sales person and was in and out in less than 20m. Fast forward to yesterday. I walked in and my presence wasn't even acknowledged. The sales ladies were busy opening a bottle of celebratory wine and fawning over a husband and wife who were at the tail end of a $5K shopping spree. As I perused the clothes, I found a number of beautiful things that I wanted to try on--however, I could not justify spending good money in a place where I am not treated with a modicum of respect. I have always believed in supporting small businesses--especially boutiques, but Angela will not be added to my rotation. I will stick to Cielo, Blu, Phyllis and Shunzi.

Most recently, I stopped in looking for a cute top for a birthday dinner. The usual boutiques just weren't doing it for me... And it's times like this that Angela's can surprise with a cool new piece. She has started carrying a few of the cool and hip Paul Smith Black label items. Paul Smith is a London-based designer known for taking the classic school girl, or school boy, look and having fun with it -- bright colors, vivid stripes and contrasting patterns with precise and extra sharp tailoring. I walked out with a fabulous little Paul Smith top, light and airy with a ton of vibrant color - perfect for the warming weather! I also saw a few delicate necklaces that I just may be taking a closer look at soon... Bottom line (well, my bottom line): I have noticed that a lot of the pieces, in general, are far more conservative than I prefer. But sometimes I get lucky and find a piece, or designer, I fall in love with! Most recently, Paul Smith. I have now added the designer on my "watch" list - Angela does deliver!
