Bounce it, toss it, run with it, or just hang with it... Big 5 has almost anything and everything sport related that you may need! This location is such a welcomed commodity, since the true sport store seems to have fallen by the way side. Big 5 located in North Natomas is one of the larger storms in Sacramento. The mere fact that it is new, sets it above many of the other older established locations. The sales team that is on the floor is still feeling their way through the newness of a grand opening. The cashiers are super friendly, as is the rest of the staff. I have high hopes that this location will become one of their A+ stores. North Natomas is home to a variety of local played sports, and this location will hopefully feed the need. I stopped in to start my holiday shopping in hopes of finding some pretty cool shoes and, sporting equipment for my nieces and nephews. I did not find exactly what I was looking for, but the gentleman that was in the shoe area was more than happy to try to find the shoes for me at one of their other locations. Customer service at its finest. I did find some other cool things, and was glad that I took the time to walk through the entire store. The store really has so much more! Welcome to North Natomas!! We're glad you're here.

They never have anything you want. Amazon is better or drive all the way to Dicks. Wish there were more Dicks sporting goods.

Another great trip to REI. September 26, 2026 around 11am. I brought my mom as she was visiting to…read moreshop with me. Earlier in the day I was at my home gym using treadmill. My feet started hurting so I knew I needed some new shoes. I was here just a few weeks ago buying new Hokas for my everyday wear as my husband said I needed new shoes as they were 3 years old. I didn't think I needed new ones, but then I looked down at them and they were actually starting to fall apart. I took his advice and looked online and picked out a few pairs I liked and had them shipped to the store. When they arrived I picked them up and tried them on in the shoe section. To my dismay they didn't fit quite right. I was so sad as they were the perfect color. They were all Hoka shoes, but different styles. I went back to my go to and a exact replacement of my current Hoka, the Clifton. I had the 9 and now they have the 11 so I tried them on and they fit, but didn't have the color I wanted. So I proceeded to try on other brands of shoes that I liked the color better. They didn't feel as good as the Cliftons so I went back to the Cliftons and looked again at the color selection. I settled on the Lavender ones. Three days later I was onto Seattle with my new shoes. We walked 11 miles in 2 days and my feet were happy. I'm so glad I got the new shoes. They were much more cushy then my 3 years old Hokas. Back to today's experience. I only wear my hoka work out shoes for working out. They don't leave the house and they were purchased 3 years ago when I had planter fasciitis. It appears that over the years they had lost there fluff to so it was time to buy new ones. When we arrived in the shoe department we were met instantly by a friendly face. The same associate that helped me last time. He showed me to the Hoka collection they had. I didn't like any of the color choices. I had the best of them already and wanted something different. He said he may have another color in back that just arrived. He went back and poked around and pulled them out and brought them out. I looked at them and knew they were the ones. They are part of their GLM special edition line. The G is for Glimmer. Oh, are they spectacular. They are a shimmering pink and lavender. I couldn't have asked for something more. I bought them and tried them out at home the next day on the treadmill and boy did they make a different. It's looking like I need to change my shoes very 3 years or less. I'm so glad he brought out these new shoes. I love their new line. I was really worried that I would have to wear some ill colored shoes for the next 3 years. Thank you guy in the shoe department. You're my guy. I wish I recalled your name.

Why do I find myself always wanting to go to Target. I don't need Starbucks in the middle of the…read moreevening, I don't need household items, but they have fresh produce, lots of groceries to choose from, clothes yet I don't have the desire of trying them on, but I'm happy that it is close and very convenient to my hotel. Sacramento Gateway has a Target and across the way is another big box store that is their competition but is further away and with the summer heat I think I'd rather not go that farther away. All on one main floor of shopping, So many departments such as food, greeting cards, books, kitchen, home decor, men's, women's and children's clothing, electronics, accessories, personal care, office supplies, snacks and more. Everything in store is organized, clean, with bright lighting. I've never seen so many locked up store shelves compared to other Target locations. Self-Checkout is the best way to go, be green and BYOB.

I am writing to share my deep disappointment with the service I received at your store this morning…read moreat approximately 9:58 AM. I visited the store to pick up a prescription at the pharmacy, as well as a few items from the medical aisle. When I went to check out at the main registers, the first cashier turned off her light just as I walked up. I proceeded to the next register, where a group of employees was standing, and that light was turned off as well. Despite having multiple cashiers present and no line, none of the employees offered to assist me or direct me to an open register. Instead, they simply walked away without saying a word, leaving me with no choice but to use the self-checkout, which I strongly prefer not to use. As someone who rarely shops at Target, this lack of basic customer service and courtesy was very frustrating. I hope this feedback is shared with the store management so that employee communication and overall service can be improved. Frankly, I hope they close this target.

This is my go-to regular Walmart location even when I moved out of Natomas…read more It is located in the Natomas Marketplace next to Home Depot, Bath and Body Works and across from Regal Cinema and In n Out. The parking lot is always packed which is one of cons with this location. This location used to have a McDonald's inside, but now it's a Subway. It also does not have a produce section as it is not a Super Walmart - they do offer a lot of other food items, including a decent freezer section. During our last visit, we came in looking for a CD player for my mom. We luckily found one plus we also took home some Fall/Halloween pajamas, plus other stuff that is currently slipping my mind. Overall, staff are usually friendly at this location and helpful. I'm sure we'll be back soon!

This review is about the friendly service I experience during every visit. Today I was grabbing a few items in the HBA section and needed to find bug spray. I asked the cashier in HBA (her name was Shanice, Shalise, Shyniece, something close to that) and she quickly came from behind the register and verbally navigated me through the store like the GPS on my phone. Such a sweet young lady, we shared a quick laugh as I appreciated her colorful store navigation and I was on my way. Management, please send me a message so I can correct the cashiers name and spelling. I visited on 6/20/26 about 2:30PM.

My experience here was really good actually. Employees extremely friendly and made sure I got the…read morehelp I needed. They were really quick to ask if I needed assistance and when I needed it they were right there to help. Of all the sports stores selling jerseys in Arden, this one had the most selection and lower prices. Even had the old classic jerseys which was real nice to see. My only problem would be for jackets, there doesn't seem to be much of a variety in sizes. Most of the jacket sizes that I was looking at were either S or XL and nothing really in between. For the most part they have a variety of sizes in jerseys and shirts so finding one that would fit was not at all a problem. Exchange policies are very simple and reasonable. Overall best sports store I went to in Arden, the other stores the employees didn't seem too interested in really helping but over here was able to engage in a nice conversation with the employees. Will come again!

I've got a fever, and the only cure is an overpriced sports store. Well, not exactly. Given the…read morewide availability of sports clothing these days, I couldn't see any justification for the outrageous prices here. Not to mention, the selection conveniently did not include almost anything I was looking for. I wanted to buy a 49ers shirt and found one in my size that I really liked. I was shocked to find out this average-to-poor quality shirt, which I could find online for half the price easily, was going for $70. Holy markup! I asked if there were any sales and the employee at the register seemed annoyed I had even posed a question. The only plus was that when it comes to local teams, they had more than I had found elsewhere. Sports Fever is an apt name - their service, stocking, pricing and selection need some medical attention.
