Who says malls are dead? Apparently they have not been to Fashion Square because it was poppin!…read more I have not been to a mall in ages. Normally, they're just not my thing. I prefer shopping with individual merchants in my neighborhood. But eventually, we all have to take a trip to the Apple Store, or to a department store. It's inevitable. What I forgot about is how friendly all the merchants are. I parked at the wrong end of the mall and couldn't seem to find my bearing. All I had to do was ask any Merchant and they all directed me with a smile to where I needed to go. Even when I didn't buy anything from them. People were just very accommodating and happy. I guess malls are a happy place. Retail therapy is real. I can't speak much to value, because of course prices range from hide below, depending up on where you're going. I went to Bloomingdale's for lunch and then I went to H&M for jeans. High to low. I must say that everything is so convenient. I picked up things I didn't really intend to because I remember I needed them and I was there. All in all, I would say it was a great experience. I'll probably be going back to the mall again.

Ok so this mall is slowly loosing its touch! I miss when coffee bean was in here and Z Gallery!!…read moreThe service is cool in the stores but I feel the selections aren't good!!! The stores could have better items and bargains!! It's not too many stores in here I like! But it's decent because of their Macys!! That's the best store in here in my opinion!! They also have a really good court!! Majority of the time I come I don't get anything!! It can be better if they have better stores!! -Marshay D.

I was craving ice cream so I decided to check this location out. I checked online and I saw Icy…read moreCrush ice cream which sounded perfect at the moment. Unfortunately, it is permanently closed. I checked out some stores, there is Cali Teriyaki, a newly opened Thai food place, Babylon foods and Elno. I am guessing Elno is the most popular store here since it was busy and there was long line. This location is a good spot for a quick lunch. For ambiance I can say there is not anything special like no view. There is plenty of seating area and it is easy to find a table to sit and enjoy the food. P. S parking can be a real headache, since there is no private parking lot. It is only street parking. I would suggest parking further down and walking.

New spot who this!…read more Ghost Food Court kitchen formerly Sushi Plus BBQ Teriyaki is located in Van Nuys Blvd/ Magnolia Blvd strip mall along with Auto Zone A&V Grill and other local small businesses. They have a fair amount of shared parking and some nice tables and chairs inside. I wanted to stop in being local to the area and check out the new revamp. The menu was similar, but fresh and the flavors were still very much there. Unfortunately for me they scaled back on a lot of their veggie options, but more so the vegan friendly variety. They still have some classics to choose from such as their avocado roll, cucumber roll and sides such as rice, french fries and edamame. Teriyaki Tofu Bowl is a fav (vegetarian and vegan by default) - yummy veggies with three thick cooked stripes of grill tofu. When I ordered today they weren't sure if they had tofu in stock... Possibly being very popular and in a lot of the dishes including one of the Bento Box deals. The lady on duty came back ready to take my order with a extra bright smile. Mild mix up when ordering because bowl and box can sound similar when outside or background noise flows in, but very easy fix! You can scan the QR code on the door to check out their menu as well as visit Ghost Food Court online. I love the concept of Japanese, Korean and American style cuisine all in one place - fast casual yum, but do hope they'll revisit or introduce some new dietary friendly items back. The Tofu Teriyaki Bento comes with California rolls currently an easy mod for cucumber would make that a vegetarian meal easy peasy. Still updating and modernizing their new renovated and hopefully thriving with time GFC, maybe yours too! Stop it, take out or deliver to yourself and enjoy :)

Came for dinner. We got there around 6p on a week night and it was not full yet but was packed when…read morewe left. Upon entry there is a takeout area where you can order hot meat dishes and to go menu or dine in. We got complimentary hot tea when seated. The interior is a bit dated compared with other restaurants of this type but the food was delicious. We got duck and preserved egg porridge, scrambled egg with shrimp, and a two bbq combo plate of char siu and roast pork. The porridge came out fast and delicious! We ate with the chili and white paper available at the table. Next came the scrambled egg and shrimp. We actually ordered the version with rice, not the entree so the servers got us some rice but missing the gravy. Lastly came the bbq combo plate. We thought it would arrive first since the meats were all ready to go in the takeout area. It came with some hoisin sauce. The char siu was tasty. The roast pork however was not as crispy and kinda mealy so the sauce helped.

Sam Woo is the only authentic Cantonese spot in the valley my family has found so far…read more Even though they're known for their bbq meats, I would stay away from them as the ones we tried this time and in the past were pretty meh. Stick with ordering dishes off their menu instead. It's next to a Ranch, so there's plenty of parking available. We came by for lunch on Saturday around noon, and it was mostly filled up. It's not a big restaurant, and tables are placed pretty close to each other. That's how you know the place is going to be authentic lol They have a takeout area where you can get various bbq meats and some hot deli foods, but they also have a large menu you can order from. The four of us ordered the following dishes to try: #2 two item BBQ with roast pork and roast duck ($19.95 + $2 for roast pork) #78 chicken and veggie chow mein ($15.95) #85 beef chow fun ($16.95) #129 sauteed fish fillet ($18.95) #138 fresh squid in oyster sauce ($17.95) My favorite dish by far was the beef chow fun, which came as a huge platter and had really good wok hei flavor. The other noodle dish, the chow mein, was also good with huge portions. The fish and squid were both okay, but portions were small for the price, and to be honest, they were pretty similar down to the veggies used. We probably could've just ordered one. The most underwhelming was the bbq. The duck tasted okay but the cut they gave us was mostly bone and didn't have much meat. The roast pork was way too juicy and the skin, which is usually my favorite part due to the crisp, was tough and hard to chew.

The exception was the Cheesecake Factory, which was not crowded, though there were 10 to 15 other diners. Validated parking is available if you dine at one of the few remaining open restaurants or businesses.

***This Review is for ABM PARKING that runs the parking structure for the Galleria***…read more On more than one occasion their faulty machines have charged us a Parking fee even when we have a validated parking good for 2 hours and we left before the 2 hours were up. Once was an anomaly. Several times?! Then something feels fishy here. As if they're hoping people don't questions things and just pay for the parking even when they didn't have to. Feels like they're running a scam.

There is a lot of good food for very reasonable prices. I usually go to pray at the temple and then we head over to the food area. And on weekends, it can be super crowded. You exchange your dollars for tokens as the vendors don't accept cash. There is all the Thai staples like Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, and even Thai tea. Do note that parking can also get very crowded on weekends. So I park in the surrounding area. Cheers to the Wat Thai, as I hope there maybe we can be renovations to help with the upkeeping.

My favorite mall ever! Is this party because it's a mere 10 minute drive away from my house?…read moreProbably... but that being said I love the Northridge Fashion Center. I enjoy getting a drink occasionally from Agua Cabana on the second floor, and the perfect mall snack is an Açaí bowl from Bearies on the first floor. My favorite stores include - Pop Mart, Box Lunch, Sephora, Bath & Body Works, Miniso, Hot Topic, Hollister, Old Navy, Journey's & Sophi's Cosmetics. It's a smaller mall but it's local & always a solid place for a hang out. There is also many on site restaurants that I enjoy such as Yard House, LongHorn Steakhouse, California Pizza Kitchen & Red Robins. There is also an Escapology located here outside the mall which is great as an interactive experience. The workers I've encountered here are typically very friendly & the mall is kept very clean.

It's a smaller mall compared to others nearby which tends to have more stores. If I'm here it's for either one or two stores or to just walk around to see what there is available. This visit was for something simple that needed to be done. Which I knew that they had a certain store. Surprising it was pretty busy for a Monday. Mind you it was a holiday and kids are off of school. But to see this place pretty lively was amazing. Each visit, tends to alway be pretty mellow. The stores aren't quite the same as they used to be. Loads of the stores that once thrive have faded away. But something new would takes its place. Hopefully they'll last for some time. I did noticed that the food court does seem to have some interesting vendors. Plus there's a new Panini Cafe at the old Red Robbin's location. It's quite big which I was surprised to see walking in today. They have both an indoor patio as well an outdoor patio. The mall isn't what it used to be. The bigger chain stores have gone or either went out of business. Macys is still there which I'm quite surprised. Regardless, people are still going to be buying whether it be a new store or an old one.
