    Site was very well stocked with many great items to choose from!! I had come in to see what was available as I had not planned on making a purchase. The employees were very attentive and even asked my group if we had signed up for rewards and to check what discounts we had available. We only walked half the store. I had a few items to think about purchasing in the future. There's only so much Jack Skellington you can buy before it's too much. I didn't get to see any Loki items so that was a bit of a bummer. Had I walked the entire store, I bet I would've found something!!

    I need this for hydration

    This is a very cute and interesting store at the Irvine Spectrum mall where I wandered around today. I forgot to do my Yelp check in because I was so enamored with all of the exciting candy and novelty items and wanted to buy some but didn't have time to wait in line. I took some cool photos though and I will be back soon!!

    Located in the Irvine Spectrum, this store is fun for anyone who enjoys popular or cult television shows and movies or all things Disney. A smattering of anime stuff is also on the shelves. The merchandise seems to change as certain films are released or as specific shows get "hot" on social media or in the entertainment media. There are a large amount of shirts but also a variety of other items that are branded with images or catch phrases. Some of the shows/movies I recall immediately are Harry Potter, Dumbo, Dr. Who, Friends, Star Wars, various Marvel characters (heavy on the Captain Marvel stuff right now), Lord of the Rings, Rick and Morty, Lilo & Stitch and dozens more Disney & Pixar classics. Also something called Kingdom Hearts, which I was unaware of until now, that combines Disney characters with anime. It was really fun to browse here and I saw several things I will come back to purchase as gifts but this time left with a single shirt for my nephew's birthday.

    Purchased some Pokemon Christmas Ornaments from their website. Item shipped in a bag. The box was destroyed during shipment. Company responded with "We are sorry to know that you recived (misspelled on a generic response e-mail) a damaged box. We will be happy to assist and would like to know that Funko Pops! are shipped in poly bags after the outer box, which is a shipping box and is not designed for display. It is designed to protect the inner contents during the shipping process, and we fully expect it (like all shipping boxes) to be subject to wear and tear in the shipping process. ​ We are unable to offer replacements or accept returns for any damaged shipping boxes. Please click on the link below for further assistance. ​https://www.hottopic.com/customer-service/faq/exchanges-returns/" What a joke.

    I've been to this store a few times with my daughter, and she really enjoys coming here because the…read moreclothes are cute and trendy. The store itself is on the smaller side, and it can feel a bit messy. The shelves and tables aren't very organized, so sometimes it takes a while to go through everything. The biggest issue for me is the customer service. There are a few employees who seem friendly, but most of the time, the staff don't come off as very welcoming or helpful. It can feel a bit uncomfortable, like you're being watched or judged, which makes the whole shopping experience less enjoyable. That being said, the clothing quality is pretty decent, and there are definitely some cute pieces if you take the time to look. I mostly come back because my daughter likes it, otherwise I'd probably just shop online or look for other stores with friendlier service to avoid the in store experience.

    Had to wait in a 30 minute line just to do a return. I explained that I was going to be in and out,…read morejust wanted to do a return and they still made me wait in line. Today was my last day to return these items and I was late to my movie for having to wait in line (I live an hour away and work 9-5 so this was the only time I could come). I'm done shopping here. If you're going to have such a short window of time to do a return, then at least be more accommodating to guests trying to make the return. Employee at the front was curly haired, wearing a white maxi skirt and black tank on Friday at 7 pm. Do better.

    I was at the Spectrum for dinner with friends and discovered that my favorite brand has a store…read morehere too! I stopped in to check things out, and as always, the service was fantastic--just like their other locations. The girls working were incredibly helpful and showed me all the new holiday dresses they just released. What I love most about this brand is that each piece feels truly one-of-a-kind. The quality and craftsmanship are unmatched, and I always look forward to seeing what's new because they never disappoint! On this visit, I was lucky enough to meet the designer, which was such a treat!! She just happened to be stopping by, and was kind enough to take the time out of her night to chat with me and my friends. It was so inspiring hearing her talk about the thought and care that goes into choosing the fabrics and lace details for each design as she creates each piece. She even shared the story behind the dress I ended up buying to go with a cardigan I had just bought (she even showed me photos of the Parisian manor that inspired the collection), and it made the experience feel even more special. This store is a true gem, and I feel so lucky to have it in my shopping rotation. It's not like anything else out there, and I'll definitely keep coming back whenever I need a pick-me-up. The team is always so welcoming and kind, and I always leave feeling inspired and excited about my latest find!

    The pieces this store carries are adorable, well Made, & one-of-a-kind…read more Kassy was extremely welcoming despite coming in @ 5 till close, and helpful with her suggestions. The store and its contents exude feminine energy and offer beautiful, luxurious, ultra-girly circle and ruffled skirts, bustiers and dresses of various lengths and fits. I purchased an outfit for a wedding as well as a birthday party and summer rendezvous. The clothing ranges from about $80 - $100 a piece; aside from the sale section which offers hefty 40% price for equally cute and high-quality items from what I'm assuming is the past season. Unlike most sales racks, you can find treasures of all sizes rather than throwaway items in either XXS or XXL. My favortie piece i purchased was actually from the sale section and was a fitted white skirt with floral details and a pink bow across the waist which was actually flattering, indicative of the high quality KESTAN maintains. I would say the products span an adequately-sized selection. The only caveat is the sizing which runs a bit small in my opinion

    This was my first time ordering from Garage, and unfortunately it will likely be my last…read more I paid $35 for shipping and my order arrived with one item missing and another item in the wrong color. Customer service refunded the missing item, but because their system doesn't allow replacements, I was told I would have to place a brand-new order and pay shipping again if I wanted the correct shirt. While the customer service representative was kind and professional throughout the process, the company's policies left me paying for a mistake that wasn't mine. A refund for the missing item doesn't resolve the fact that I still don't have what I originally ordered, and I don't think customers should have to pay additional shipping costs to correct a fulfillment error. I appreciate the representative's professionalism, but Garage's resolution was 450 reward points and no way to receive the correct item without spending more money. That's disappointing for a company of this size. I hope Garage reevaluates its policies so future customers aren't left in the same situation.

    KEEP IN MIND, I'm NEVER one to write bad reviews or ever speak ill will of retail workers because I…read moream one too but I cannot just be nonchalant about this matter and lie here and say I had a good experience at this location. Tbh it felt like I was low key getting hate crimed for my gender because I AM A MAN and Garage is solely for females. MIND YOU, I didn't even take a SINGLE STEP inside the fitting room, I was waiting for my bestie outside. Also, KEEP IN MIND, these fitting rooms are exposed like there's no door or barricade that separates the main floor and the fitting rooms. It's entirely exposed and the female sales associate is monitoring it on your left. Also, each fitting room has its own booth and its covered by curtains. Anywho, that's beside the point. MIND YOU, I am just a gay man who was accompanying their female bestie to try on jeans and I was respectfully waiting for her outside. I didn't even take a SINGLE STEP inside, I was waiting for her OUTSIDE but I am near enough. Then, as she came out and she's looking at herself in the mirror and I'm giving her my opinion, I respectfully asked the female sales associate if I can go inside so I can take a proper look at the jeans she's trying on but she ignored me so then I asked again the second time and she still rolled her eyes, didn't acknowledge me and I was ignored. Then, my bestie respectfully asked her if I can step inside as well and that's when she answered and said no. In conclusion, I understand the reason why she said no to me because it's weird for a man to be in a all female fitting room and if it was the other way around, I would've found it weird too but KEEP IN MIND, I work in luxury retail and I know if my bestie and I were at a Nordstrom or a Bloomingdale's or like some luxury boutique, the sales associate wouldn't be as rude as the Garage employee was to me. Though I fully understand the decline of me stepping inside, the sales associate didn't have to have a rude demeanor. Plus, not just her all her other female coworkers didn't have to look at me weird or look me up and down. It's just so unprofessional and not welcoming at all. The only thing I'll shout out is the one female employee who helped my bestie pick the right kind of jeans and to clarify the sizing of their jeans. So, thank you to you. I forgot their name but they were super helpful.
