    First visit here to buy new glasses (had to exhaust my FSA). Staff was super welcoming and…read morefriendly. I walked in with a particular frame in mind, which they didn't have in stock, but started to show me other frames that were comparable in style and look. Ended up finding a frame that was fit my face. The purchase process was smooth, as I still needed to get new prescription (they recommended an optometrist they work closely with) and the whole process took about 2.5-3 weeks (getting my eyes checked took longest). Would definitely recommend to friends, and also go back when I'm feeling the itch for new frames.

    The most outstanding part of this store is their customer service! I've gotten a couple sunglasses…read morehere and now, my first pair of prescription glasses! They have a good selection to browse through. They'll help to recommend what would be good based on your face shape and eyes. And they'll offer similar styles, etc. They're also really quick and knowledgeable. She pulled a bunch of different options for me to try. And they'll keep the glasses pristine. They'll even offer to clean your own glasses. Once you have your purchase, they'll help adjust the nose bridge and/or the ear area to help fit on your face better. This store is definitely on the more expensive side but you're paying for the quality and service.

    Went in to check out their selection of glasses on a Tuesday evening and the staff was so kind and…read morewelcoming. I was able to try on many pairs without feeling pressured to purchase any I ultimately ended up liking 2 pairs the glitz 02 and the panini however the panini was out of stock in the black color and the glitz I wasnt sure if I could get my prescription on them. I also feel like the prices are very reasonable because glasses that are chic can be very expensive I am planning to come back when the ones I wanted are in stock. I will say the only downfall of this location is the parking it's all paid parking but that's a given in dtla. Their are 2 lots right by here so easily accessible is a plus it will just cost you extra. Would recommend checking this location out the art inside changes periodically and it's captivating.

    I went here with my friend a few weeks ago to grab a pair. The pair I wanted was the Ttl. When I…read morewas looking at the display, they looked like they had a slight colored tint. Upon purchasing, I realized it was due to it being significantly faded. I feel like the display should be swapped out every once in a while to give customers a more accurate depiction of what the glasses will look like. My friend also bought a pair, and hers hand gems on it. After we bought it and got to the car, we realized a gem was missing. She immediately questioned the quality of GM, and we went back to swap it out. Fortunately, the staff were very nice and were able to instantly swap it out for us without question. The downside of the store is that there's constantly homeless people trying to enter the store, which makes it feel weird to spend money when you're so heavily reminded of what other people are lacking. But if you want a pair of glasses that provides UV protection and a bit of shade without taking away too much color from the world, these are excellent glasses.

    This is the BEST place to get your frames and prescription glasses…read more I've been a customer since they first opened up shop! They've been my go to for sunglasses! Today they changed my scratched up lenses in my Oliver People's sunglasses. I bought them here at least a decade ago! Here's the thing, when you buy quality it lasts, and personally I tend not to loose them. If you are a spectaphile, or eyewear enthusiast, get on the mailing list, they regularly have trunk show with amazing brands that you won't find elsewhere.

    This is not your regular eye glass store...Nope...It's "Society of the Spectacle!" And if you want…read moreto be a member of this cool society then I urge you to trot on over and check it out! (FYI...No membership required, it's just a state of mind) I mean really, if you have to wear glasses, don't you want to make a statement? I know I do...And the frames here are the bomb! Something for everyone! Simple yet stylish and some colorful ones with bling! The boutique itself is located on York Avenue in Highland Park and looks like a cute little house. When you walk in you are greeted by the sister's, Kate & Amy, Gwen, and the adorable Gabby. If they do not have a pair you like in stock they will go out of their way to see if it's available. I bought a beautiful pair of French Frames here that were bothering my nose so they added little metal tabs to make them fit better. And recently they looked crooked so they tweaked them for me:) Yes, the frames are a bit pricey but I have compared the prices to Costco & at my eye doctor's office and it's really not that big of a difference. I would rather spend a few extra bucks for their amazing service and more fashionable frames. Your glasses here will always be treated with love when you need them to be fixed! *Bring your eye glass prescription with you if you plan on having them fill it. *You can purchase your frames here, have the lenses put in or take them some where else if you prefer. *Many designer brands *Street Parking

    Our daughter wanted a new pair of JINS glasses before returning to college. She also wanted to…read moreupdate the prescription on her JINS sunglasses. Despite our disappointing experiences at this location, time constraints forced us to give them another try. We arrived just as they opened. Our daughter already knew which glasses she wanted. She checked in and was first in the queue. A couple minutes later Valerie called us up to the counter. She had the glasses our daughter selected and began her order. She walked us through each step of the process, highlighting important details while patiently answering all our questions. Valerie also easily handled the prescription update for the sunglasses. She re-confirmed our daughter's address and phone number for the shipment, pointing out that although the receipt notes "Pick-Up", her glasses will be shipped. Later while having lunch across the way at Din Tai Fung, our daughter said she thinks her prescription may have been entered wrong. She felt bad about having to double check, but we wanted to be sure. After lunch she walked over to see Valerie again. Although it was busy, Valerie took the time to pull her orders, explain what our daughter saw and confirm that her prescription is accurate. It was a great experience today, thanks to Valerie!

He re-bent the frame so it was straight again, replaced the nose pads without me asking, and gave them a full clean. By the end, they honestly looked and felt brand new. The store itself is clean, well organized, and they have a really nice selection of frames at reasonable prices. After this visit, the value definitely stands out. What I appreciated most was how easy and genuine the whole interaction felt. When I asked how much I owed, he just smiled and said not to worry about it. Simple, great service like that goes a long way. Thank you again, Anthony.
