This location has got to be the most busiest, people all over the place, best priced items, fully stocked, large variety, unorganized shelves, clothing racks too close, and the longest register lines of all Ross I've shopped, in southern San Diego. The one thing I must say, staff at the registers are quick! Thank you! Parking lot can get full. You might see homeless people walking around parking lot. Security guards are now checking receipts before exiting the store, just like Costco and Walmart. Not a had thing but can be annoying. I only shop at this location because it's several miles from my home. Otherwise, I would go somewhere else that's calmer and not so busy with people everywhere. read more

I may be a little generous with my stars I was vastly underwhelmed with the service. I will say that the line was a mile long and they did a GREAT job moving the line. I had 2 things on my list and I suspect if I could have found an employee in the shoe department I may have walked out with both items checked off my list. I could not find a pair of shoes that fit all my criteria, size, style, color, quality, brand, and to an extent consumer reports if I haven't heard of the brand. I left shoeless unless you count the ones I walked in with. Along those lines I saw an item that wasn't on today's list because I didn't think to put it there was a little thing to transport my guitar picks. (They are custom picks I use as special souvenir business cards - not to be confused with my everyday business cards) Anyway I found a set of nail clippers in a cool keychain type setup, the the mail clipper holder would be perfect if I could get rid of the branding. There was a set that had no clippers so I figured they'd give me a huge discount. I searched for someone to help me I sound someone that didn't understand my American English and in perfect English told me so. After this happened twice I gave up and hoped my cashier spoke English and could help me out . She could and she couldn't. I'll give her credit she tried but the best she could do was knock 10% off. Since the most important part of it was missing I felt 75% off was fair. Let's just say I walked out of the store with one item checked off my list,a 2 star review. As a 70 old year main with slight mobility challenges I didn't really feel safe. the place was cluttered with boxes, merchandise and customer all tripping hazards. I'm not sure I want to risk coming to this Ross location.. read more

Some of the staff does not speak English! The floor is unkempt. It is like shopping in a third world country. Obviously the staff has no pride in their store or shoppers experience. read more

Horrible customer service. Three employees socializing in Spanish around the cash register as a line of five people are waiting watching them and the employees couldn't get the clue that they should probably open up the register and start working. read more

The deals here are always great! I got a huge bag of clothing for only a hundred bucks. The store is always super busy no matter what time or day it is and the place is always a bit hodge podged together. Also there's never anything that is the same. If you buy something and want it again expect it not too be there. Weird thing that is always and I love to buy is they always have bags of Starbucks coffee so I buy a ton of those everytime I go. read more

I don't understand why they got low reviews, maybe people just frustrated for other reasons, because holy cow I can't believe I skipped this Ross location, it was huge inside, and yes crowded, you can't walk around here without running into people on every aisle, they are everywhere, so many stuffs to check out, the reason I liked it because it got a lot of stuffs I missed out a few years ago either I didn't find the right sizes or I was reluctant to get it at the time, jeez now I got like 5 shirts and 1 sweatshirt in one trip, that's how many items I wanted to buy. Plus they have some unique and oddly items, I would call them hidden gems, they have small electronic area, but their clothings and shoes racks were filled and piling on top of each other, you will shop until you drop, the check out line was also long, and busy, so many people but not a lot of staffs; I wish I had more time to explore more things but I ran before 9 PM to Panera for my drink fix. Their jewelry also great, watches, necklaces, sunglasses and yes rings, they do have more rings, but I do need a size 5 for a specific design, I am sure they were all gone due to that many foot traffic :) damn read more

Tends to be messy week round but worth looking through it all to find great deals on name brand clothing. A life saver when money is tight which, let's be real, isn't it always? Tip: go during opening hours, thank me later ;) read more

I thought o would visit the new Ross store in Chula Vista. Wanted to go before everyone was off work and on weekday.. there was only one cashier line going around store. Too crazy busy for me, never again will I bust this store. Not worth the time waiting in line for me. Positive note : Merchandise was on the shelves not all over the floor as I've seen in other Ross stores. read more

I came to Ross's to look around while I waited for my friend to meet up with me for happy hour. Ross is a few doors down from Applebee's. As I entered, place wasn't too busy with mobs of people. I walked around and stumbled into the dress section. I was looking for a cute summer dress and I found it. See my picture. I ended up buying it. I walked around some more to see what was in the store. I managed to look at the section where they had cute tops but not too much to choose from. Some of the clothing racks were limited. I didn't want to spend too much time in the store because I know how long the lines can be. As I approached the line, it wasn't too bad. The line moved fairly quickly. One lady in front of me had a whole cart full of crap. As I got to the cashier, she didn't seem friendly. She asked me if I was paying cash or card. I told her card and she asked me to swipe before I got the total. I like shopping at Ross's but it's a hit or miss when I shop at different locations. The store was descent and wasn't too messy as most people complain about Ross's stores. I just didn't like how it was limited in selection. read more

Let's start out with the positive things. Shopping at Ross is like going on a big treasure hunt. The gems can be found but it takes a lot of time and patience to sort through the junk and disorder. I shop at Ross to find my favorite brands of clothes and shoes such as BCBG Max Azria, Vince Camuto, MIchael Kors, Steve Madden, etc. I can always find something at Ross. But the experience isn't always that great, such as is the case with this store. This store is always a mess. So much merchandise is damaged on the floor with carts running over items and dragging them down aisles. If shopping for shoes, you have to go through every rack because your size will be found strewn about anywhere. And once you have selected your purchases, be prepared to wait..and wait..and wait. You will lose your patience, you will even 2nd guess the items you chose and take them out of your cart. You will think about the items you didn't select but decide not to go back for them because you don't want to lose your place in line. The 2 or 3 cashiers look so frazzled trying to deal with the long lines. If Ross is trying to pass on savings by keeping the place minimally staffed, it's not a good plan. They are losing out on quite a few customers that just don't bother buying that one item because it's always a long line at the registers. People who do decide to give up an hour of their time to wait in line end up with too much time to rethink their purchases. All along the line, you can see items that were taken out of shopping carts that people may have bought on impulse. The sheer amount of items put back could easily cover the hourly wage of added a cashier or two. Or even having a dedicated line for 2 items or less. Although I feel almost bad for those overworked cashiers, there are a few employees that just stand around, looking at the clock all confused. I am not sure what they are doing behind the register, because they certainly aren't helping the cashiers. You may find a few aimlessly walking around the aisles but not really doing anything at all. I am not talking about Security, just one or two random employees that look lost. I will end this review on a positive note. On my most recent visit to this Ross, after about a 32 minute wait at the register line, I did score a pair of Calvin Klein leather sandals for $5.99, a pair of very cute BCBG wedges for $16.99 and a cute Romeo + Juliet couture dress for $19. read more

I'm a Ross fashionista I love the idea that no matter what store location I shopped at I always find something different. This location caters to larger sizes in clothing for women. Their shoe department for women carries a larger selection of shoes from size 10-12. So when I need to find items for my daughter and myself I shop here. This location is is the best for me in catering to my shopping needs. read more

This place is so disappointing, the people have no concept of customer service, they don't even greet you, actually they don't even knowledge you, sad customer service. read more

Ross Dress For Less - Expect to wait in line for a good 15/20mins. - Department Stores Near Me - Chula Vista, California

Came to this store to do a return and it was the longest line ever. The purchase and return line was the same line. There was at least 30 people in line for a Thursday night. I felt like I was at the DMV. The Ross store was pretty messy for a Ross location. I have been to many locations. Going to give them 3 stars because they do still have great deals and a great selection. read more

This review is hard,mainly because toss in itself isn't bad it's hit and miss on deals bit it's definitely worth it in savings when you find clothes /merchandise you like The reason for the low score is all the ghetto ass parents who let their kids run wild,all while there pregnant again!..rude ass, entitled, ghetto individuals who make this place a nightmare Employees in my opinion are professional, and helpful Chula Vista /national city locations fall under same category, such a shame Hopefully the east CV store is better read more

I don't mind going to this location, especially if I'm running errands around the area. I will say that parking can be hard to find at times and this location gets super busy. The lines for check out and sometimes for returns can get super long. They do try to get as many registers open, but the lines still get long and you can expect to wait for a while before you can checkout. The aisles can be packed full of items, but they can overflow and they don't get organized as often. I still like this location, but it's hard to enjoy your shopping experience with items laying around and aisles being really narrow. I would recommend a basket while shopping because the carts can be a bulky accessory when shopping at this location. read more

They don't have a wide selection of items unless you go super early, right when they open. The lines can get pretty ridiculous and there's always only 3 cashiers available for whatever reason. read more

So NOT worth coming here!! We Came On A MONDAY a damn weekday, and the store was a mess, unorganized and no help on the sales floor whatsoever! We waited IN LINE for 40min just to pay for 4 small items! I would've left and shopped somewhere else but I needed my shoes for a debut that I was invited to last minute and I was running short on time so I had no choice since I found the shoes I needed for a good price. I was lucky to even see SOME clothes in the right spot, good luck trying to find your size! I have no idea why it was SO busy that day but there was literally only 4 registers open, slow slow slow service. It seemed like it was Christmas shopping all over again too. The customers were all rude as well, they would let people cut in front of them in the line and the stuff they didn't want they would leave on the aisle where everyone was waiting to pay. People need to be more considerate and if they don't want any items they should hold on to it and give it to the cashier instead of placing it on the floor or leaving a ENTIRE CART in line. It was so ridiculous. Never. Again. read more

I live only a couple block away from this horror show and rarely go here, but both my kids needed new shoes asap, so there ya go. I got there about 5 - 10 minutes after they opened and the place was a MESS. Seriously, do they EVER clean up? The kids' shoe area was a nightmare, all the sizes were mixed up. I'm already getting anxious and my poor older son, who is autistic looks like he's trying so hard not to get overwhelmed. We eventually found selections for both of them and we were on our way.... or so I thought. I got in line - I was maybe the fourth or fifth person in the purchase line, and there were five people in the exchange/return line - and two cashiers. One would think that one cashier would take the purchase line, and the other would take the return line, right? NOPE. They both took people form only the return line, even when the purchase line got 8 or 9 people deep. Celia/Cecilia on register 1 was chatting it up with every person returning something. I was in line for about 15 minutes without it moving before a gentleman in front of me said what we were all thinking (everyone in line looked pretty pissed off at this point) and another cashier finally showed up. She got through 3 people before Cecilia was finished talking with her return. It took me almost three times as long to check out as it did to find the shoes. I will never, EVER go to this Ross again. Ever. read more

Typical Ross; not completely messy, not completely organized. Good deals every now and then - customer service is pretty good, i.e., employees actually know what they're doing and are willing to help. I would give 4 stars BUT this area can get hectic + I can't stand a lot of these other customers. Rude. This Ross is near a Target...I mentioned this in another Ross review...I see a trend here...hmm... read more

MESSY, MESSY, MESSY! Don't expect this shopping experience to be a quick in and out... you WILL be there for a while trying to look for what you need. Dig underneath the piles of things and you will occasionally find good treasures :) Also, watch out for the rude customers with their big ol' carts that take up the ENTIRE isle and don't bother moving at all as they see you struggling to pass by. Come on people, MOVE! read more

This place is a DISASTER. Everything is unorganized at this location. You're lucky if you're able to find something decent looking in your size. I'm assuming you gotta get there early? The management is horrible. I was about to purchase a Jimi Hendrix poster sized canvas photo when I noticed that the frame was cracked. When I asked for a discount, I was told "No", then after asking for the manager, I was told I could be given a $1.00 discount. Honestly, this sounded like an insult. read more

This Ross has a lot of variety in items Shoes, clothing and home decor I do notice has more selection than other Ross stores. I only come here as soon as they open the doors at 8am because 2 hours later the place is MESSY!! Seriously how can females be so messy and nasty!! I'm embarrass for these scandalous women I seriously went today around 8 and came back at 12 because I decided I wanted an item I didn't get in the morning and the place was a huge mess!!! I give it 4 stars though because first thing in the morning is calm everything put in place and management has meetings with the workers. They look like they're doing the job it's just the nasty ass customers that give the store a bad reputation. read more

I called last night 8/1/2018 to see if they had an over the stove espresso maker and they put me on hold. Then I was told they do have some, so I drove to this store at Palomar Ave and looked everywhere and couldn't finf one, then asked an employee that was next to the isle I was and told me, 'no' we don't have any at the moment? I was upset because I drove there for this particular item and was misinformed. read more

the security and manager are a joke here. they forgot to take one of the sensors off at the rechistar and was asked for my recipe whive I couldn't find right away, so got told I couldn't leave the store with my stuff until I found it. well I found it in my bag a couple of minutes later and they security guy was still an ass to me and told me to go back to the register to get it removed. no apologies or anything. when I asked to speak to the supervisor he didn't care. read more

I'm giving it a one star because I HATE how the cash registers aren't done giving you your change and they yell next next next!! Like lady can you please give me my cash and let me walk away and then call the next customer. I've worked in a retail and I've never rushed any of my customers. Even when making line they keep yelling next and I just think that's rude and you guys should really change that. The line will always be there. read more

I am still figuring out the Ross experience. I love deals but I hate clutter & mess! This Ross - just like the other 2 Ross I have visited in San Diego are not impressive. The small process cannot excuse the BIG mess. There has to be some type of functionality. There is no flow. And the restrooms ugh!!! :( Customer service is everything to me. It does not exist here. I got nothing during this trip, not even when I got to the register. Tip: All it takes is a smile. That's the first step in the right direction. The stars are for the deals only. read more

Worst service ever ! Your Employee OLGA she was doing returns. She was very very rude and so not helpful she made me take my hangers off the clothes I was buying and not only that she tells me to take my receipt from her machine . Um last time I checked YOU "work" here. Not me. I hope I don't see her again. My attitude will be in full effect if I have to deal with that again. I'm good with that Ross. Everyone is just so damn moody. If you can't handle your customer service then this isn't the job/ "career" for you. So disappointed. She's lucky I held my cool. read more

Don't know if I'll ever come back to this Ross read more

Ross Dress For Less - Was able to rack up some nice pictures after digging through a bunch. - Department Stores Near Me - Chula Vista, California

I always have ttttthe best luck at this location for dresses. The one negative is that the lines are always hhhhhorrible!

I've never been a store manager, but I know that they could manage this place better. The lines are crazy long, and hard to follow - and the store atmosphere feels old school and dingy, could definitely use a face lift. I won't go there again... I recommend they take a look at how Marshalls runs their cashier lines; their system seems to work - entertain the customers with items to buy, while shuffling them to the register in an orderly fashion. read more

Ugh! What a God damned mess! This place in particular is dirty, unorganized and over-crowded. Too many snotty kids running around and screaming loudly. Inefficient customer service; I was in the check out line for about 25 minutes. I will never return to this Ross. read more

I continue with trying to give this store a chance.....almost all their staff will speak to you in spanish....assuming you are spanish speaking and ignoring the fact we are in the USA. Hello.....I am in the United States...speak english...go to Mexico of you only want to speak in spanish. Also , when I am trying on clothes , I expect for you to do your job and return the clothes to their place. Don't ask me to place the clothes on their hanger , which is obviously your job. That being said , I will wait to spend my money in Mission Valley where I am recognized as an American. read more
