I'm back for a second review. We were in so much awe of this mall- we couldn't believe the first…read moretime how bright, immaculate and beautifully busy this mall was last time. So we decided to return and see if that was just a fluke day. Nope. It's pretty consistent - I'm not sure what their secret is- how they manage to thrive while other malls are dying- how they stay so clean and free of groups of troublemakers, but they are! Once again we felt safe, happy and excited to see so many wonderful places to shop under one roof- and it's a big roof because this mall is huge!

An average mall, pleasant, well-organized. It's my go-to place when I can't solve with online…read moreshops. Their bathroom area has a large sitting area, which I find very thoughtful. Right now, it has a carnival.

Personally I loved Bealls like my Mother before, me, but not anymore because of the…read moreinjustice...they are playing judge, jury and executioner with people's lives who have already paid their debt to society! Even those who have withheld adjudication for insignificant charges, or other non-violent crimes. People go through the court process, complete their sentences and pay their dues. Bealls hires them, puts them to work, lets invest themselves in their jobs and two weeks later --hands them a letter firing them for vague arbitrary reasons because we live in a right to work state. Either do the background check up front ** just BE HONEST ** do not hire anyone before you do your due diligence if you only want to hire the pure and pristine people. STILL I do not wish to spend my hard earned money at a place that thinks it's too good for good people who made a bad choice. I choose people over things every time ...so Bealls can keep their things because we can get those anywhere and preferably someplace they treat people like they are of value!!!

Overall not a bad place for shopping. Sometimes it would be nice to know the products aren't just…read moreunsold warehouse items. For example, I bought a couple scrub sets here. Since I already have this brand it didn't seem necessary to try them on. They were purchased then washed and put away for when I needed them. That is when I ran into the issue. All four pieces were wrong in sizing. One of the pants waist band was so tight then couldn't be pulled up past my hips. The other pair of pants had one leg longer than the other by almost two inches. The tops were off as well in the length, too short or angled. Maybe some quality control needs to be enforced. 26.07.2026

They literally talk through you and will NOT acknowledge your existence. My self and my husband spoke directly to each of them four or five different times, looking at them straight in the face, and both ignored each of us. The female didn't even acknowledge me. The male made eye contact on a different occasion but refused to answer me until my husband asked the same question again and all he did then was respon with one word. We spent almost $400.00 in the store. The cash register person was sweet and helpful. Im just appalled at how humans treat humans these days.

They don't gift wrap. I guess they have big bins that you can pick from. I don't know if it has the…read moresame stuff as Walmart like they say but it definitely has big bins discounted items.

I had such an exceptional experience with Jana in the sunglasses department at Dillard's at…read moreUniversity Town Center Mall in Sarasota that I felt compelled to share it with both the store and corporate leadership. I came in simply looking for a new pair of sunglasses, and Jana immediately stood out for her professionalism, warmth, and genuine enthusiasm to help. She was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to thoughtfully suggest styles for me to try, all while making the experience feel relaxed and enjoyable rather than rushed or transactional. What impressed me the most was her level of engagement and initiative. She could have easily remained behind the counter and waited for customers to approach, but instead she actively helped guide me through different options, offering expert suggestions and encouragement as I tried on several pairs. She made me feel confident and great in every pair I tried. In fact, she suggested a pair that I would have never picked out for myself -- and I loved them so much that I purchased them immediately. I walked out absolutely thrilled with my purchase. As someone who studied Fashion Merchandising in college and worked in retail for over 15 years, I recognize truly exceptional customer service when I see it. Jana demonstrated the kind of service, product knowledge, and personal attention that elevates the entire shopping experience and ultimately drives sales. Employees like Jana are incredibly valuable and truly represent the level of service that keeps customers coming back. I hope she receives the recognition she deserves -- she absolutely earned!

It was pretty busy but we managed to stop at the stores we wanted like children's place and Victoria's Secret etc. they have a wide selection of name brand stores and also had a cute boutique that was going out of business they had some really nice beaded purses and clothing for sale. Overall, Ellenton premium outlets is a nice place to shop and has good prices definitely a better deal than your average mall.
