I bought a $700 fur coat and the size on the coat was different than the size on the actual jacket. I have been searching for a smaller size everywhere & feel so cheated. Now I have to drive to Chicago to return this jacket because that's the closets location to me! I was also supposed to get a $100 gift card which I never received (holiday promo). read more

Saks Fifth Avenue - Tell me why the tag says a different size than the coat!!!! This is a $700 coat. I'm never shopping here again. I feel cheated - Shoe Stores Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Horrible "customer service" from the Saks.com return line on 5/4/26 at 6:55pm from whomever the black lady was that was on the register that didnt want to work because it was time for her to go home. Really sad that you spend thousands of dollars in these places and get horrible service from the employees. Nordstrom and Neiman's would NEVER! I am seriously considering canceling my credit card with them. I live an hour away and it's no other locations in Chicago anyway. I see why they shut down the trashy saks off 5th Ave! read more

Love Saks but have been a bit sad to see (and smell) it going down. First that ODOR! What IS that? Smells like sewage and feels like no AC on in the bldg. I've always loved Saks but lately I've been concerned with what I see as a downturn in care and lesser store products. Hoping the can turn it around. read more

Saks Fifth Avenue - Shoe Stores Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

While this store is super high end, the staff we encountered were helpful and pleasant. There are beautiful items for sale.

The store is basically closed with only a few racks left here and there, and what's left wasn't great. Posting a liquidation sale with a paltry 30% discount on selected merchandise is just silly considering their online store is offering 25% off everything. But let's back up and remember what this store was just six months ago. It felt claustrophobic, with each floor fractured and windowless. The Men's departments were on two floors. About 10, maybe 15 years ago, Saks decided to split their Men's merchandise into two distinct categories. Saks knew Nordstrom and Bloomingdale's had the smart casual middle market with some sophisticated designer brands, so the first direction Saks went was overpriced urban streetwear. When you entered the 7th floor Men's department it was a lot of Who Decides War, Ed Hardy, Amiri, and rag & bone. Lots of crazy sequined & ripped/distressed jeans, bomber jackets, extraordinarily expensive hoodies, and graphic tees. An entire wall was devoted to designer baseball caps. The 6th floor had brands like purple label Ralph Lauren, Boss, Zegna, Isaia, and Kiton--stuff you'd likely see in Neiman Marcus that was just enough to qualify Saks as a "luxury" store--and I'm using that sparingly. None of this was appealing to a customer like me who'd shopped at Saks back in the 90s and remembered how approachable the clothes were - especially when they had a separate Men's store across the street. It's sad to see the store close, even if they lost me as a customer years before. read more

Spacious store with decent selection. Customer service wasn't great - it was very hard to find someone to help me and when I finally found someone, he was very slow and very uninformed. I came shopping for clothes but got distracted by the shoe floor and was impressed by the shoe selection, esp the Louboutins. Will have to come back again when I have more time to explore the clothes! read more

The customer service here was friendly, warm, and helpful. I enjoyed getting samples of a new fragrance (an omg for olfactory senses). Thank you! read more

Saks Fifth Avenue - Building Front - Shoe Stores Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I purchased a pair of pants on sale at Saks Fifth Avenue and was never clearly informed that the item was final sale. When the pants did not fit, I attempted to return them and was told that not only were returns refused, but even store credit was denied. This complete lack of transparency and customer accommodation is unacceptable. Saks Fifth Avenue has lost my business permanently. read more

so I visited the cosmetic area looking for a finishing spray for the face that would give that dewy look. the woman that I had to approach at the counter who looked like she was enjoying a magazine became argumentative stating that I just needed a heavy moisturizer. I explained that I was only looking for what I had asked for and wanted something reasonably priced since I already had a moisturizer. She told me to go to Nordstrom and that "Saks was for rich people" read more

Never thought I'd have to worry about Saks but horrible customer service. bought expensive sandals (Louboutins) that broke after 1 wear - it should be fixable but you need a piece (its a small ball that connects two bars) nothing Saks was willing to do - literally nothing. Have been in contact with the brand without resolution. Biggest regret - not buying at Nordstrom who absolutely would have resolved this and handle with care (vs. a sales rep - say "nothing we can do" - and manager repeat that). read more

Since our hotel is so close to Michigan street we decided to take a stroll. We ended up going to Sam's fifth avenue. There were seven levels here with so many different luxury brands to choose from. It has all the famous name brand such as gucci, Burberry, Chanel etc. The staff here are helpful. read more

my review is a lesson to: NEVER ORDER FR SaksFifthAve ONLINE if you can help it because if they send the item to you fr Saks '5th Ave' Chicago store and Saks Chicago store makes a mistake, nobody within Saks 5th Ave will correct the mistake, responsibility for it gets tossed back and forth between the store, SaksFifthAve Online & the vendor (in this case, Tumi). I've gotten no reply fr Saks Chicago Concierge, I've left them 2 voice mails over the last 5 days and sent an emai, no reply. I went to IG and messaged but that seems to be staffed with people who are in a 3rd world country and who have never been in or shopped with Saks, don't know how in USA we make purchases, etc. it was like speaking with a glitching chat bot. I called Saks fifth ave online and same type on the IG. ordered online (I'm in NYC) and Saks fifth avenue online sent the item to me (Tumi Luggage) fr the Saks Fifth Ave Chicago store which sent the item incomplete and my review is a lesson in never order fr SaksFifthAve online if you can help it because then when the store that sends it makes a simple mistake (didn't include dust bag that comes with every piece of this luggage, I have 4 other pieces of this luggage incl 1 in same size I ordered again within this purchase fr SaksOnLine and sent fr Saks in Chicago) then Saks Online, the Saks store that sent it just toss responsibility back and forth, even told me to contact the vendor (Tumi) myself, told me that the luggage never comes with dust bags (all other 4 pieces I purchased incl 1 in this very size all come with the dust bags and need to because this luggage scratches easily) read more

This is not so much for the actual store, but I ordered a pair of CL shoes for my wedding, and when they arrived they were USED and THE WRONG SIZE! Saks failed to do anything about it. I have been fighting with them since February now...I was unable to wear them for my wedding because of this, AND I'm out almost $1,000 due to THEIR mistake that they refuse to fix for me. Absolutely do not shop with them. TERRIBLE customer service. Go to Nordstrom instead. Absolutely horrendous experience. I sent several emails, sent pictures, and spoke to customer service on the phone and still no resolution. Despicable! read more

Saks Fifth Avenue - Scuffed bottoms - Shoe Stores Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This is my first bad review from all the previous ones made on other stores and it is strictly based on making a call to this store. My wife was calling to inquire about a certain watch and after following the many prompts could not get to the jewelry department. I tried hoping for a better result with the only result being wasted time. This is pretty sad for a store with of good reputation. If you are going to have an automated phone system to replace people than have it function for it's intended purpose which is to route it to the proper party. read more

What's not to like about a Saks Fifth Avenue. This location is a nice general merchandise store - with most of the merch being high end. It is not like designer stores where you only see merch from that designer ... here you can find all the big names ... at suitably big prices. But assuming for the moment you brought your wallet, this is a good stop on the Mag Mile trail. The first thing you'll notice coming in is security ... and it is a pity that smash-and-grab activities have tried to ruin the shopping experience all over Michigan Avenue ... but in todays shopping experience, you need security ... and Saks has it all over the place starting with the front door. You will feel very safe and welcome in this store, and just have to put up with security as today's requirement. The selection of quality materials and products here is very nice. They have a large staff to help you through any questions, and they were most helpful. Anything they don't have on the floor, they can order and have delivered to your house. Good customer service. We had a great experience and won't hesitate to return. read more

I love Saks because they have a selection of some of the best pieces from all my favorite designers I mean.... What's not to love? The Saks in Chicago is my go to and I always make sure to ask for Albert who is such an amazing stylist, fashion enthusiasts and all around great human! I have so many pieces that I love and wear frequently and can't wait to build more and add more things to my collection. read more

Worst customer service possible, just went in to try on some shoes and tons of employees present but nobody trying to help, I had to reach out myself and have someone get me a shoe??? what the hell? all standing around like they think they own the place yet can't help customers. read more

I purchased from Saks Fifth Avenue in the stores and online for decades. They were one of my favorite, high end stores. A few years ago I purchased some clothes online. A few of the pieces did not fit and were returned, in the same condition and within a day of receiving them. They sent me a gift card from their store as a refund and did not credit my original form of payment as they indicated in their return policy. I called multiple times about this. They deactivated the gift card and never credited my charge card as they indicated. I had to go through my credit card company to get a refund. Saks wouldn't answer their requests either. I'd love to trust them but they are not the same company I loved. One rep even asked me for my credit card number so she could credit my charge account. A few days later someone used that card info to purchase things themselves or sold my info. I haven't fallen for that again! Stay away from this online store! read more

I was at Saks in downtown Chicago on Michigan Avenue where they have the best alteration lady, named Amal. She was great at fixing both of my dresses for my sons' weddings. She was so helpful and she did outstanding work on my evening dresses. I just wanted to let you know that Amal is the best I have ever seen for alterations. My dresses came out perfect and she is also such a nice person. Thank you Amal from Saks in downtown Chicago on Michigan Ave. You are the best. read more

It's always funny how attitudes are adjusted once certain behaviors are pointed out. I've always had good experiences at Saks whether on the West Coast or East Coast and this have been for 10+ years. Hopefully, this store will do better or have a better creative director work staging and displays. It's pretty yawn worthy / not a head turner / not a show stopper. read more

Will never shop Saks online again! Bought a dress on sale not final. It came and fabric was not what was pictured. I returned with their label fed ex approved. They aren't it back and refused to credit me. I called 3 times. Dress is still in their original packaging w tags looks perfectly fine to me. Shame on Saks. read more

Maria H. The Chanel beauty advisor is wonderful! Very helpful in getting the item I needed, Saks was the only place that could- the Chanel store itself didn't even call me back to say if and when the product I wanted would be back in stock but Maria did! I would definitely recommend this location. Thanks, Maria! read more

Saks Fifth Avenue - Chanel Purchase - Shoe Stores Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This store is the absolute worst. I can't believe a high end store like this has horrible customer service. I went to return on online order to the contemporary department. The lady that assisted me acted like she was doing me a favor. I told her that the item I ordered was not the item I received. She immediately said oh I can't help you go to the return counter. What kind of high end store is this? I would've expected her to say I'm sorry you received the wrong order. Can I help you find the correct item? Instead she just rolled her eyes and me and then smirked as I walked away. I will not shop here again. read more

Still five star for service, I had an exchange which was handled promptly and with a smile. I then spent some time looking at lingerie and after a bit couldn't find what I wanted. I inquired with the sales person if they had any garter belts because I've seen them online. She informed me that they didn't due to low demand. (I'm a little vintage at times) She suggested La Perla, I replied, odd I did see them on Michigan Ave. anymore. She thought they were, but not wanting to steer me in the wrong direction she called the store to verify the location. Nice! read more

My husband loves this store whatever city we're in he always has to go to a Saks fifth Avenue store I've said it once I'll say it again I am a Marshalls or TJ Max kind of gal I will say there customer service is behind perfect although your sending 2 arms & 2 legs for just a shirt I guess they would be really nice they also have a plant base restaurant located on the 7th floor that's not my cup of tea but my husband enjoyed it another thing I enjoyed is the fact nobody made us feel like we weren't supposed to be there like some other upscale department stores that we have been to in the past read more

Stopped by to look for some Canada goose jackets and compared them to Montclair. The service was good and the checkout was fast. Men's clothing is upstairs and the women's are on the lower floors. Mage up is on the first floor. I like their quality products. read more

I went in there last week and there was blood on the wall and in a puddle on the floor. There were some chairs pushed around it and a "wet floor" sign trying to stop people from walking into it but it was really inappropriate and repulsive. I thought maybe something had just happened, but we were in the store for an hour and on our way out the puddle of blood was still there! They also don't seem to care one lick about asking customers or staff to wear masks which seems really irresponsible given the delta variant is highly contagious. My mom bought stuff, but I refused. If I wanted to shop somewhere with blood and germs everywhere, I'd go to Walmart. read more

I'm honestly surprised at the horrible customer service at this Saks store. It's regrettable that the business is trying to project an image of luxury and service, and the employees have not been trained to deliver on that expectation. Is it possible that the customer service reps believe that neither service nor customer is important? They certainly made me feel that way, with bad attitude and unprofessional communication style. I don't expect to return, to the Chicago location or shop at Saks in the future despite being a long time customer. read more

Stopped by to grab a gift for a friend. At checkout, the saleslady, Mirella, claimed I had to give my e-mail address for the receipt. I was hesitant but she insisted that it would not be used for marketing - only for the receipt and for return tracking and that it was absolutely required. By the next day, I was already receiving spam from Saks. There is no unsusbscribe link in the e-mails. I have replied multiple times to remove me from the list but I am still getting spam. No matter what you do, do not give them your e-mail address as they will blatantly lie in your face. Better yet, don't shop at Saks at all. I thought this place was supposed to be luxury and service-oriented? What a joke, no wonder retail is dying. read more

I was in need of finding a wallet. When I entered the area, this lady (don't know her name) approached me and asked if I needed help. I told her I was just looking. As I was looking she came back over and made nasty comments about how I must not be from Chicago because they don't "sell wallets in this store". Jokes on her because I have lived in Chicago for almost 2 years. Not a TOURIST. She followed me around the entire time I was shopping and was just being an overall bitch. She has grey hair and glasses and works on the first floor with the handbags and winter hats and gloves. She was the worst person I think I have ever met and should not work in customer service. Wish I could give a 0 stars but 1 is the only option. I will not be returning to this store and if I do, I hope she is fired! HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE! Don't go here if you need to shop, go to Nordstrom. read more

What to send a shout-out to Corey (Store Manager) and Denisha (Returns & Exchanges station) at the Saks Off 5th Ave on South State St near Madison in Chicago. The store just re-opened. I needed assistance and they went out of their way to take care of me. First, the Returns & Exchanges station is right at the front of the store so you don't have to go looking for it which is convenient. Corey could not have been more thorough and Denisha was super-helpful. Keep up the good work folks. I will definitely return to the store just because of you both. Carmen read more

****Reviewing the Jo Malone counter only**** I love the Jo Malone line and I love Dorothy who works here. A few months back, I stopped for a bottle of my precious and she LOADED me up with samples. Win! I didn't spend thousands, but she provided exceptional service regardless. Today, I got a package from Sak's which my husband delivered with a suspicious "what did you buy NOW?" look. I pleaded complete innocence and opened it to find a bunch more samples for their new fall fragrances from my new BFF Dorothy. Of course, I fell in love with one of the new fragrances and will be calling her Monday to spend a shitload. Hear this department stores - be nice to me like Sak's just was and I will fill your coffers with revenues from my impulsive spending. Treat me poorly - ahem, Macy's - and you get no love. read more

When you walk in, you walk into the fragrance depart so of course it smells lovely. Each designer has there own section and the directory makes it very easy to see which level you need to go to. I received print service and they employee was very knowledgeable of the item I was interested in. I was not able to purchase the item I wanted in store due to the size not being in stock but was offered the option to have it mailed to my home. The process was quick and besides not walking out with item in hand, it was a great experience. read more

I cannot say enough nice things about a sales associate named Sunny Moon. She was incredibly patient and helpful as I slowly picked out various Christmas gifts during which she had a mad flurry of customers.

Thanks for making me look good and helping me achieve the status of great gift giver. read more

This is a terrible business. I have placed an order required signature delivery. Order was delivered without my signature and was stolen. It was not insured nor value declared, so FedEx is not taking any responsability, and Saks is not giving my money back. I have been blocked From their socials, so i cannot even contact the person I was talking to. I've never see such terrible customer service. read more

PSA: NEVER SHOP AT SAKS. If I could give them negative stars I would. They have HORRIBLE customer service. Long story short I bought two pairs of shoes in NYC and had them shipped home. Shoes never arrived and neither FedEx nor Saks took any accountability. Saks offered no refund or replacement product since FedEx LIED and said it was delivered. Saks has the balls to tell me "well the store shipped the box so it's not really our problem." So now I'm disputing the transaction and they will have to eat the cost anyway. So instead of eating the cost and having a consumer be pleased by their consumer service and come back to shop, they will eat the cost and I will never go back. DON'T SHOP AT SAKS. They suck and do not take care of their consumers. Hating them with a passion. read more
