NOTE: This location will be closing soon though it is still open at the time of this review being written and anticipate being open through April 2026. Every now and then, I find myself at a Saks Fifth Avenue for a quick gift at the Biltmore location or on their website. While they have a great variety of items, the prices are quick high, though there are occasional promotions on their website or through e-mails that are sent out. The staff have been helpful and always answered our questions and helped us on each visit. This is the only Saks Fifth Avenue store I have been to, though I have enjoyed the occasional visit to Saks OFF 5th stores in the past, too. Saks Fifth Avenue is considered the "premier destination for luxury fashion, driven by a mission to help customers express themselves through relevant and inspiring style." The have been around since 1924 and focus on an approach that combines a focus on the digital customer experience with a strong connection to a network of 40+ stores across North America for seamless, all-channel shopping. Eight of these stores will closing soon. This location is the only Saks Fifth Avenue location in Arizona. Recently as a part of their bankruptcy process, Saks decided to close its only Saks Fifth Avenue and all of the Saks OFF 5th stores in Arizona along with most of their OFF 5th locations (and Nieman Marcus Last Call stores) and 7 other Saks Fifth Avenue locations around the country while continuing to function otherwise as a company. Their website (https://www.saksfifthavenue.com) has regular priced and sales/clearance priced items, and if you sign up for their e-mail list, you can get 10% off your next purchase. There are also promotions like the Designer Sale of up to 70% off, earning $50-500 gift card with purchase, and free shipping with $300+ purchase. Recently, the bankruptcy process has been of particular interest to those American Express Platinum card holders, as they get $50 credit for purchases at Saks Fifth Avenue stores every six months, and if they purchase physical gift cards in the store, they can get the credit back that way, and the gift cards can be used at Saks Fifth Avenue or OFF 5th locations or online. read more

Belle is amazing, she was fantastic today. I went in looking for a new scent I had a few in mind. She was extremely helpful and open to my ideas and what profiles I was looking for. She led me into some great profiles and took me to a brand I didn't know and found something that was very unique but exactly what I wanted! She is an asset and was very attentive to ever thing I asked. She spent a good 40 minutes with me helping me decide. She should be very valued by this location as her customer service was above and beyond! read more

Specialty upscale shopping with top designer names. Very organized store with handbags, shoes, men's and women's clothing, makeup and skin care and much more. Friendliest staff always willing to help with finding the perfect outfit and getting you the right size and fit!!! read more

Not in Phoenix but "on line." Saks and their "Bread Financial" will NOT return your money even if they have the merchandise! They wait until the 18th or the 19th when the Sak's bill is due and THEN credit the customer and crap they try and sell you when you call is total bull beyond! They play this game with your money and there is no doubt they are closing-good riddin's! Deserved! Sak's/Bread Financial are the worst company to step foot on this planet! It's your money/credit but it belongs to them until the 18th/19th at which time you get the refund. WTF? Stay far away from them and their financial banking-losers beyond! read more

Of course this place is highly recommended. The merchandise in this classy store is all brand names, most of them designer!!! The sales people were very welcoming and helpful. I was intimidated to come in here as I knew this place was not only high end and pricey but very expensive!!! I get some of the expensive cosmetics here because I know it's worth it. Most of the cosmetics I've tried from my travel to Europe are available here. Would definitely come back!!! read more

Was sad this location is closing. Came to check out their closeout sales. I tried to find someone to check me out and couldn't find a soul in sight. Finally an older British lady with very blonde hair came running up the escalator to tell me the store was closed (refused to provide her name). I told her I want to make a purchase and she told me all registers are closed and I have to leave (it was ONE item!). Store closed at 7p. It was 6:57. I have never been refused a purchase before. Maybe why they are closing this location. Doesn't help with revenue if you refuse to sell product and close-up shop before the store is actually closed. Sad to see an iconic store close at the biltmore-but you need better quality employees to make sales! read more

For all the years that I worked at Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue, I must say Saks Fifth Avenue has gone completely downhill. It's not the same! Shop at TJ Maxx, and have better service. read more

Saks Fifth Avenue - This photo is for the void that never took place. They have double charged me for a clearly voided purchase!!! - Accessories Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

This store has limited inventory. What struck us the most was how cold and unwelcoming it felt. Very pretentious clerks. They look miserable. The store lacks customer experience. It lacks appeal and warmth. It almost feels like a store that's closing. We weren't impressed. The shopping center itself is very nice. We didn't have this experience at the other stores. For some reason this Saks just has an empty feeling. read more

The management and overall atmosphere of the Biltmore location has went absolutely downhill under the leadership of the new store director. I reached out to the store director after an SFA employee was very aggressive and made me feel extremely uncomfortable. What is more, this employee's behavior was completely ratified - perhaps even encouraged - by other employees and later management. There was no apology or remorse expressed over the situation. My interaction with SFA management left me much more disappointed in this location. SFA has failed to appropriately address this situation or offer an apology. Thankfully there is Neiman's down the street. read more

I bought Chanel eyeshadow there and the sales assistant was lovely, kind and helpful. The Chanel single eyeshadow I bought, however was the worst eyeshadow I have ever used. It is chalky, does not glide on smoothly at all and spread all over the place. She actually did not really recommended it but I wanted it because of the size and brand. read more

Sadly, I agree with the other individuals who have posted comments regarding the lack of customer service. I went to determine what they might have in the way of evening dresses for a family member's wedding. Two gentlemen in that area that we're working there, would not even acknowledge our presence. I had to hunt down a girl who I couldn't understand because her accent was so severe, to assist me. She did as little as humanly possible. What a terrible disappointment. It's not the Saks I remember when I had a personal shopper there. read more

I like the quality they have at Saks fifth Avenue. But the customer service to me should i rate very low. On any promotional items, if you don't see it in your email they expire and there's nothing else they can do for you. read more

i've been shopping at Saks for years, and I just love it! They don't hound you, but you can always ask somebody at any time and they will gladly tent to your knees. You can't beat the quality of the items at Saks read more

I order a pair of Balenciaga shoes online from Saks. The shoes was to small I never try the shoes on. I put them right back in the box I received them in and return them the same day I received. Now Saks refuse to refund my money saying that the shoes was worn. I have been getting the run around about my refund. Please be aware not to order anything for Saks. They will put you on hold for the longest only for the phone to hang up and when you ask to speak to a supervisor or get corporate number they will not provide it to you. DO NOT BUY FROM SAKS ONLINE. read more

I purchased a pair of jeans and the night I went to wear them the sensor was still on... I called multiple times and kept getting redirected to people off site. I was told I would get a call back from the store several times, but nothing. THEN, I ordered something for pick up and it was cancelled with no explanation. The sales ladies are always so pushy, it is uncomfortable. The only reason to consider shopping here is if you get the American Express credit. I am genuinely shocked at how bad this store is. read more

I was shopping online last night had 9 items in the cart went to check out almost all the items were double or triple the price as when I when I selected them. In a 20 min period not over night. Disappointed in them. They might be use to getting robbed by I'm not. read more

Like all other SFAs, this one was decorated very eloquently. It has multiple levels and the layout is pretty easy to decipher. Service was quick and efficient. I just ran in and out to get a gift card. Overall super easy to do, finding the entrance to the store was the most difficult thing about the process. read more

BE AWARE!!!They shipped the item 4 days after purchasing, the customer service was totally ignorant, I received the item so late and couldn't have it on time for the wedding party, the sent an email that they will expedite the shipping but they never did it! !!! I called multiple times begging to expedite the order the just ignored and repeated same thing.. Saks Fifth Avenue is my worst experience of online business! read more

Really awful. I ordered 2 items, they sent one item that was just wrong (not what i ordered) and another that was 4 sizes big and obviously worn. They request photos which o sent and sent me a return label. I returned them and they are refusing to refund. It has been 3 months of them doing an "investigation", the results of which is "inconclusive". So they now have kept the shirts and are refusing the refund. Really criminal and frustrating. Will NEVER be buying anything from saks... and will share this will all my friends and colleagues. There are so many similar complaints on the better business bureau. Shameful. read more

If I could give a negative Star, I would. bought a Jenni Kayne dress, poor fit, immediately returned. Saks received return on January 14th with ALL tags attached. It's February 14th and still no credit! I've called 2x, escalated to a supervisor each time. The first time they said it would take 30 days for the credit now we're at 30 days and now the supervisor is saying at least seven more days. This is not the Saks it used to be. "Customer service", which is now outsourced offshore, cannot do anything at all to help you. DO NOT SHOP here unless you enjoy gambling with your hard earned money. read more

I absolutely love this store they have everything you need and I normally go to actual websites to buy the items in there most the time same price as Saks And when you order with the actual upset you get some of the cool packaging but there's a lot of times I'm last minute and decide I want to belt for my outfit or for a trip and instead of waiting shipping with the regular retailers I can order it saks and always get it sooner ! & when I call I always get great customer service there is get right to the point help me with what I need and everything's perfect I absolutely love this location they will definitely get a lot of money for me! Check out my IG from time to time I'll post different recommendations for anything & everything :) baddonee1 read more

The five stars are for Rashida on the second floor who was virtually helping every customer while a small group sat around the desk and gossiped about the changes happening - ?? Give Rashida a raise! She tried her best to find a dress for my special occasion and when we hit a dead end she offered me many different options and how she can help me (giving me her card- ) read more

I love this store went in there to get my favorite scent. The gentleman was very attentive and helpful. Showed me different fragrances. Walked out a happy customer. read more

This store is complete trash and so is the staff. Richard in the men's department is nice when he wants your money even though his service is that of a walmart associate. I will never shop here again. The manager ( Natalie of Natia) way over filled lips was a condescending and complete poor excuse of a manager. I will never shop here again ever! read more

My first time coming to 5th ave I came in looking for a specific scent I was being helped by an employee I said I wanted a certain scent and said I didn't want a certain scent due to not liking it. while shopping I was instructed with many options but was still unsatisfied the employee started to give off an annoyed body attitude. I was constantly smelling the small sample I was given to sniff while the employee would just stare at me, I was uncomfortable at this point so I just settled for a perfume still not being 100% sure I would be satisfied with this product with a short amount of time to decide and being with an uncomfortable employee but this was to go out and I was going to make a final decision later in a more comfortable area with a clear mind. I went out using the perfume seeing how id like the purchase, I was given many compliments saying I smell like the scent I specifically didnt asked for. clearly i came back to return an over $400 perfume I was unsatisfied with the impression I could return due to not being told this expensive item is not return able nor any about policy. I came back 2 days later they accepted the return but my card was blocked so we asked if we could come back to make the return employee said yes of course. I came back again the following day since they accepted the return just to be told the item is not returnable. Again being my first time here and I'm completely disappointed with product and service, Employee failed to give notice to product being un-returnable. If an item is final sale or can be only returned in certain circumstances it should be made clear for 100% customer satisfaction or at least on the receipt. Non of these were given. not everyone reads shops policy before making a purchase. For being my first time at 5th ave and being a high end store the service was poor and uncommunicative. poor service, poor experience, poor communication, doesn't care about customer satisfaction. Receipt doesn't say anything about package being opened, perfume was clearly brought back in the conditions. Even says on the back "with original tags and PACKAGING (if applicable) at any store within 30 days. read more

Store associate named Zoe was so busy on her phone with a personal call, she called me an asshole when i asked her to hang up the phone to answer a question. Bad representation of the brand. Smh. read more

I was in the urgent need of smth and drove to Saks to get it only to find it closed. Yes, I checked with the Google prior to driving - it was said Saks opens at 10 am. Not it's 10:45 am and I find the doors locked. Saks, you don't even bother to update this information? Really? You just lost me as a customer. read more

As a former New Yorker, Saks is obviously my favorite department store in the valley. The location is nice and quiet, a contrast from the competition over at Fashion Square. Michelle in the cosmetics department had some really great skincare advice and recommended THE perfect product! Saks will always be my first stop. read more

My husband waited for help in the men's section to look at a fairly expensive jacket for 10 minutes. The fellow finally finishes w his customer and asks him, "Do you need something while eyeing another fellow dressed more formally in the section. My husband is wearing very casual clothing. He looks at my husband and then says, "Hold on a minute and I'll get back to you and leaves for the more formally dressed guy..." That was enough--goodbye, Saks. I warned him that the only time anyone has paid attention to me in this store is when I arrive wearing expensive clothing. They prejudge their customers. This is not a one-off. We will take our money elsewhere. Neiman Marcus doesn't prejudge--Nordstrom doesn't do this....just this Biltmore Store in our experiences. read more

Offers an impressive range of high-end fashion brands but rather limited on accessories. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive, providing an exceptional shopping experience. read more

I purchased a pair of Chanel shoes and Saks had to have them shipped from a different store. They sent me two left shoes and one has clearly been worn to death. Because I have one left an one right foot - the shoes are unusable. They want me to pay shipping to return them. Unbelievable. Spoiler: if I have to take those shoes back in person or pay to have their trash sent back to them, this will be the last time my family will darken their doorstep. read more

Excellent selection, great service, prices are high , but prices are irrelevant for me

I live in Chandler but enjoy the drive to the Biltmore Shopping Center. I always go into Saks Fifth Avenue first. I haven't ever had a bad experience. Yesterday, Josh helped me in the Chanel department. I instantly liked his personality. He is so friendly and helpful. He knew exactly the foundation and skin care I need. He also gave me some samples of a shampoo that I tried today and love!! I'm going back tomorrow to get it and the conditioner. Thank you, Josh read more

I had an extremely disappointing experience with Saks Fifth Avenue recently. I ordered two pairs of sandals online in different sizes for my son's wedding. When they arrived, both pairs appeared slightly used. Nevertheless, I tried them on briefly and then immediately returned them within the 30-day return policy, including a note explaining this is the condition in which I received them. Ordered April 1, 2024, returned April 12, 2024. To my shock, customer service refused to accept the return, claiming the shoes appeared worn. I reached out to customer support and even contacted members of their leadership team (Marc Metrick, John Antonini, and RJ Cilley) but received no responses except from customer service, who maintained their refusal to process my return. The lack of accountability and poor customer service is unacceptable, especially from a retailer of Saks Fifth Avenue's reputation. I am now left with used sandals that I did not wear, and my issue remains unresolved. I plan to take this matter to small claims court but wanted to share my experience to warn others about potential issues when purchasing from Saks Fifth Avenue. I hope Saks Fifth Avenue reconsiders their policies and improves their customer service practices. My experience has been nothing short of frustrating and disappointing and I will no longer be shopping here in the future. After seeing so many others experiencing the same practices I realized this is standard practice for this company. I will never shop here again and instead stick to shopping at Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus. read more

In all my visits to this location, I have been greeted with friendly, smiling staff members who are eager to assist. A wonderful shopping experience. Thank you Saks! read more

I ordered Burberry umbrella twice and it arrived Brocken both times. Only going to Niemans after this. Horrible experience

Out of all the cologne choices I can make, my only choice is Jo Malone. I have been a long time user of these aromatic natural scents, and am absolutely in love. I layer my scents, so it's always something new. I have to call out Belle, who is an amazing consultant and just knows my taste. She messages me when something new in my scent palette arrives. I am always so satisfied with the high level of customer service, along with the personalized experience. Please come see Belle, and tell her Pete "scent" you...ha! read more

I had a great experience while shopping here for prom dresses with my DD. She didn't know what she wanted, so it was long and drawn out process of trying on a gazillion gowns until she found "the" dress. The woman who assisted us was very helpful, patient, and accommodating. She held two dresses of interest while we continued to shop. DD's final decision was an elegant and classy evening gown from Saks. We returned to make the purchase and arrange in-house alterations. The dress was ready for pick-up within a few days of the fitting, just in time for prom. On our final trip to pick up the finished product, there was no one in the dress department so I had to wander over to the section that sells jeans. The saleswoman over there wasn't pleasant. She had that, "What are you doing here?" glare and tried to make me re-pay for the dress. The ticket on the dress clearly showed, "Paid," and I had my own receipt copy as well. Unfortunately, she was just one of "those" people. Nonetheless, the overall experience was nice and my DD looked stunning in a beautiful gown which no one else was wearing at her prom. read more

I ordered a Theory blazer through the Saks online facility. Actually, the St Louis ordered it for me. They sold me some items and I needed the blazer. When the blazer arrived, it was sent in a box that was 3" x 8" x 10". And the tissue paper was just crumbled up. The blazer was a total mess and I actually had to take it back to the store and they were kind enough to steam it out for me. When I asked Saks online, who was responsible and if they could give me a gift card they said the store was responsible. Well I'm sorry the store was not was responsible it was the guerrillas in the online packing department that decided to stuff a blazer that cost quite a bit of money into a box that wasn't big enough. These people are terrible business people in the future. I will just work with the store. Saks online does not take care of its customers .. they would not take responsibility for their mistake even though I sent them very detailed documentation as to the problem. I am not going to go to the store and request a gift card because it wasn't the stores problem. They handled me quite beautifully. It was the online sales department and their fulfillment. Horrible. read more

I ordered an Armani suit online. They sent me the wrong size. They then had run out of my size in that style of suit. Very frustrating situation. The customer service was fine, but they never once apologized for the inconvenience. I'll be preferring Neiman's from here on out. read more
