I stopped by Soto in Sherman Oaks while I was in the area for a laser appointment (I live in Santa…read moreMonica and rarely make it out to the Valley unless I have something scheduled). I had a little time and was looking for a cute lounge set to wear for work and running errands, so I asked ChatGPT for boutique recommendations in the area and Soto Sherman Oaks was one of the places suggested before I even checked Yelp or Google. That alone made me curious to stop in. First of all, this is an excellent place if you like to shop on your own without someone hovering over you the entire time; no pushy sales energy, which I personally appreciate. I was able to browse comfortably and take my time. I ended up finding exactly what I was looking for -- the cutest lounge set. They had it in black, pink, and blue, and I went with the blue one. I also picked up a pair of sunglasses and a really cute choker necklace. They have a nice selection overall -- shoes, jewelry, friendship bracelets, bags, accessories -- lots of fun pieces. The pricing is on the higher side, but the quality definitely feels better than what you'd order online. You can tell the pieces are more thoughtfully curated. The only thing I would mention is that greeting customers when they walk in makes a big difference. When I came in, no one greeted me or smiled. One of the sales associates, Michaela, walked by a couple of times and didn't acknowledge me at first, even when I smiled. It wasn't a huge deal, but it did stand out. Once I tried on a few outfits and initiated the interaction myself, she was pleasant and helpful. The other sales associate (I didn't catch her name) was also lovely. Parking was easy. I found street parking right away. Overall, I had a good experience and found some lovely pieces. If you're in the area and like discovering fun, trendy items without feeling pressured, it's worth stopping in.

The customer service is terrible. My mom was looking for a specific pant and asked where they were…read morein the store. The woman in the picture just kept saying "they're over there" and pointing from behind the counter and never moved to show my mom where they were. She just kept looking at her phone. She had an attitude the entire interaction and was extremely lazy with a condescending tone. I'd rethink your sales associates and maybe hire people with better customer service skills and who are approachable and helpful. People would probably want to spend their money if they had pleasant interactions with your staff.

I used to stop in whenever I was in the area. That said, I consistently left feeling confused about the customer service. The team never seems eager or willing to help. I've always had to ask if they have my size or if they can check in the back, and even when making a purchase, it often feels like ringing me up is an inconvenience. There are many great stores in this center, but unfortunately, this location has become my least favorite in terms of service. The designs are great and the value is good, but a bit more warmth and attentiveness would make a world of difference. I've stopped going in for now, but I hope the service improves because the products truly are lovely.

She didn't care what I have to say and it's only my problem I didn't read the return policy in a very very small letters ! In the end she gave me the refund back !

Alas another newbie in the trend of Boulevard Boutique pop ups. This one I can't really say I was…read moretoo impressed with. It was really waaaaaaaaaaay too overpriced for what they were selling and even with the 50-75% off sale upstairs, it still wouldn't make me wanna spend $75 on a tshirt. Most of the styles seemed pretty dated. For example the sweats with the writing across the booty that says REBEL. I'm sorry, but that was soo 3 years ago. They did have a few pieces that we really cute, but it's nothing that a scenester couldn't have pieced together from the Goodwill in Los Feliz for a fraction of the cost. Sadly it seems to me that this store thinks it's on Robertson and rumor has it, YA AIN'T, so I really don't see it lasting more than another few months. Sorry Charlie.

I have always had a great shopping experience and once again it did not disappoint. Walked in around 3pm and was greeted by a couple of employees. Overall, my shopping experience was very pleasant. Since I didn't have a clue what I was there for, I eventually saw a few items that I didn't need, but wanted. In addition to that, they were on sale and had good discounted items. I had to go for it and make a purchase. This is a big Ross. 2 levels. Mens department along with other stuff are on the 2nd floor, women's are on the 1st floor. They also have an elevator inside the store which is a HUGE plus for many people.Store was clean and well organized. I saw a few items that caught my eye. Got an LED Candle set, 4 blouses, 2 frames 4x6 each one was $1.00, 2 sprays Yankee brand, pink sand scent, summer open toe slippers & a small travel pack pillow cases which came in 2. I was very content & happy with my purchases and the total came out to around $50 plus tax. Check out process was fast and quick. They had 3 registers open and everyone was doing what they were supposed to do. Big Parking space shared with few other businesses. I love how they are open super late.

I had a very disappointing experience at this Ross Dress for Less location. The temperature inside…read morethe store was extremely hot and uncomfortable. There were fans running, but they were clearly not enough to make the environment bearable, especially with the temperature outside being around 100°F. I can't imagine how difficult it must be for the employees who have to work full shifts in these conditions. This is not only uncomfortable for customers but also unfair to the staff. We stayed for only about 5 minutes and had to leave, even though we came specifically to buy a bag and a dress. I hope management takes this issue seriously and improves the store's cooling system for both customers and employees.

True, your prayers have come true -- therefore there's a new True Religion store next door for you,…read moreyour boo and Scooby Doo, too -- but who would go there when you can get the same ridiculously trendy (some might say played out) jeans on sale at 818 Freight next door -- a one-off store that's been at Sherman Oaks Fashion Square for years? Not you, sexy, that's for sure! Glide right past the entrance and the regularly priced merch, and home right in on the SALE shelf and racks. Honestly, at least a third of the store is on blowout sale at any given time, and if you're talented at wheedling, even regularly priced items will have a healthy percentage shaved off if your pleas come forth in the right key. Those $260 jeans suddenly only cost you $110, so now you can afford to invest in that high-yield stock portfolio you've always told yourself you'd add to your curriculum vitae. Or just buy some shoes, whatever. Right? The owner/manager is a sweet Asian woman who kind of looks mean but reveals her kindness whenever she asks you if you need help, and whenever she thoughtfully looks the other way when you realize girls' pants will fit you better than men's, if you're male but can talk with your hips and make the world come hither with your lips. The store's collection leans heavily toward young women but sways every now and then back to guys, so that there's something for everyone to add to their wardrobe. Button-up shirts with sequins and applique are available in case you're tired of being the only one of your friends who isn't living out his Entourage fantasy (btw - please say your fantasies aren't as douchey). T-shirts, too, of course, though honestly, the jeans are the only worthwhile men's item unless you want to dress like one of those people who drives a leased Audi and tells everyone that they're a music producer when they really pump yogurt for their rent money. For ladies, there's lots of dresses that will fit me. Er, you. You. So cute, and so stylish! There are hair accessories, too, but forget about buying your extensions here, because there are none. Grow it out, honey -- or buy them from a kiosk near Bloomingdale's on the other side of the mall. Oh, my good[bad]ness... These Miss Sixty's would SO fit, too. Is there any way I can cover up the "Miss" part? No? Okay, then. Get ready, world.
