I was highly skeptical about Riverside as far as the shopping goes, because realistically I am in…read morethe desert. However, much to my surprise I discovered a new (for me anyway) shopping center with just about any place you can think of; I was completely overwhelmed in a good way. Riverside plaza reminds me of how a shopping center should be, as a one stop shopping experience. Really, this place has everything any one person could want to shop for, I will say without doubt it made my day and shopping all to easy. Thank you. If your new to Riverside this place will impress you. Happy shopping. AlVarez

Holiday decorations all around!…read more In my opinion, The Tyler Mall is trying to be a nicer mall. It has always been just okay. Nothing about average as far as malls go. It seems like they are trying to be more festive and decorate the mall. There's lots of food options in the food court. Some restaurant surrounding the Tyle Mall too. I think I have eaten at the restaurants outside of the Tyler Mall, more than the food court spots. I do like the Miguels Jr inside the mall. That isn't my favorite Miguels location though. I have come to The Tyler Mall for the AMC many times. Oh, and for the Olive Garden now that I think about it lol That Olive Garden is pretty good, and it's the go to spot for people nearby. The Tyler Mall seems to stay the same. It's always the same retailers, same food court options. It doesn't change. I know the layout like the back of my hand at this point lol I used to run around this mall to do Black Friday shopping lol That was always fun! They have a decent selection of stores. You can find a good value, just look for sales at each location. The parking is always a struggle, but what mall doesn't have parking wars? lol

They have some great places to eat! Many popular restaurants such as halal guys and after's ice cream. The selection of food options, entertainment and cafes are great. The parking lot is huge and you won't have trouble finding parking. The parking lot is well maintained and workers at the shops are super friendly. It is so close to UCR you could also just walk here. Many great cafes and places to study or hang out with friends. Very close to what looked like to be some student housing buildings.

There are the old faithful staples like pho Vietnam, uncle chuangs, Dennys and Del Taco, Chase bank and 7-eleven. Parking during the day inside the gated area will require a toll ticket. Be aware sometimes these gates get stuck on the south side of the parking lot in front of chase bank. Go to the north end right in front of uncle chuang's and speak to the attendant. This gate works more consistently. Parking outside the gated area are limited times and some spots for patrons only.

Checked it out and headed to the area around early afternoon to walk around and see what it was all about. Come to find out they have events like a Wine Walk tour every first Sat of November & if you are into Beer they have an event the first Sat of every May.... first hand info from the lovely ladies @ Canyon Crest Dental. So some of the shops I checked out were a variety from pet shopping (Pawlished Paws) to Mexican dinner @ (Espetto's Grill or Pepitos Restaurant) & drinks (Nektar Juice Bar) or treat yourself to a Spa day or two OLO (Massage Triology Spa &/or Spa @ Canyon Crest) or a nice piece of Jewelry (Mardon Jewelers) which is a family owned business & wow the lady w/ short red hair was so sweet. There is a ton of other businesses that we peaked our head into and said hi. In case you needed to inquire on Insurance (Allstate) or maybe real estate inquire with American Funding Center located on the 2nd floor near Extreme Pita. There are so many favorites to mention that maybe you wouldn't even expect like: A British Emporium (super nice British owner) & CC Athletic club, CC Winery w/ a Jalapeño Cabernet!!! Don't forget to stop into the (Crafty U Too) if you want to paint your own pottery or feeling crafty to create a bowl. My fav's were Helio's Cigar Lounge, Isabellas cupcakes, Migliore Gourmet (Olive oils for ever....) & lastly Smokey Canyon BBQ for a quick slider bites. Yum. I can wait to head back and see what plants are on sale at Rite Aid too. Christmas decorations are gonna be exciting to see how its all lite up for the Holidays.

It's wide, pedestrian only, has unique stores, many restaurants, cool sculptures and landscaping. A fun place to stroll, shop, explore. During X-mas time it comes alive even more, it's like a cool X-mas market, they bring rides, they have a stage for concerts, many food stalls where you can grab a bite, a fun dessert, a nice hot drink. Prices are reasonable and everywhere we went, customer service was very good. The decorations are incredible, it's a fun holiday venue. Very lively and pretty.

I hope that the city residents enjoy it throughout the year. Our first time experiencing it was New Year's Eve. We'd gone to see the Festival of Lights, and had no idea about the mall being an added attraction. Many of the storefronts boast intriguing, attractive, and festive window displays. That's a great surprise to see in the 20-Teens, where that's become a lost art in many city settings. The next surprise was the lighting in the center area of the mall on the taller office buildings. It's a great complement to the light fest at the Inn. A skating rink joins the fun during the holiday season. Fountains and statuary add dimension and interest to the space. Our impressions have been that the mall is clean and safe, as well as wide & expansive. During the Festival of Lights, horse-drawn carriages are also part of the scene. A variety of restaurants provide for dining options, including Thai and Italian. Parking options may require some walking to get to where you want to go on the mall. It's worth the walk.

It is super cute…read more They have a parking lot right next to the venue which has ample parking but I could see it getting packed during weekends. So I would recommend stopping by during the weekday maybe for lunch before any of their event nights if they have any. They have a good little selection of food. American, Filipino, pizza, fried chicken Sandos, Mexican, gelato, smoothies/acai and it looks like a Japanese spot is coming soon. They also have a few retail shops mixed in there. The only downside of this place is that it's not very stroller friendly although there are plenty of ramps to get to the restaurants and stores it is a very tight squeeze to get into any of them with a stroller. And I can see it being a nightmare to maneuver around during busy hours. Other than that every vendor is welcoming and I do recommend if you're looking for a variety of food to choose from. I would come back kids free next time lol. So I can roam freely!

I love Dos Logos!…read more There's some great restaurants here. I enjoy some of the stores too. The two lakes are fun to walk around or just sit and look at. This is a pet friendly area.

It's anchored by WSS Shoe Store, Grocery Outlet, AT&T, CSL Plasma, Planet Fitness, and Wingstop. There's also Coin Less Laundry (nice!), ABC Pharmacy, La Michoacana (ice cream, yum!), Waba Grill, metro by T-Mobile, boostmobile (right next door to metro), Cash Services, Nails & Spa, and more. I saw they have a large bright green bin for clothes and shoes donations. It was overfilling. It's a good thing... let's support our local community! Parking lot is gigantic at the front and back of the buildings so no worries there. The next time I'm back in the Riverside area, I will have to return to Krak Boba for more boba drinks, get some ice cream from La Michoacana, and check out how Coin Less Laundry works. I'm curious!

The Shops at Jurupa Valley has a lot of potential and some great stores, but the overall layout and…read moreplanning leave a lot to be desired. One of the biggest issues is the lack of designated delivery truck areas, which regularly leads to traffic congestion and makes navigating the center frustrating at times. Pedestrian access is another concern--there's no clear or safe sidewalk connection from Mission Blvd over to Target, so you often find yourself walking directly in traffic lanes, which doesn't feel safe at all. There's also a noticeable shortage of trash cans throughout the property, which impacts cleanliness. And while this center has been open for about a year, it's disappointing that public seating areas still haven't been installed. There aren't really any inviting spaces where people can sit, gather, or just enjoy being there. Overall, it feels like the center was built with retail in mind, but not the full community experience. With some thoughtful improvements--better traffic flow, pedestrian safety, and shared spaces--this could be a much more welcoming and functional destination.
