First time I have been to the Burbank Town Center. Hello 1975! This is a very dated mall that could…read moreuse some love in spots. Other parts of the mall looked refreshed. Several different retailers from Sears, Macy's, World Market, Body and Bath Works, See's Candies, Victoria's Secret, Vans, Burlington, and dozens of other national and local retailers. There is also an AMC Theater inside the mall. There's not much to their "Food Court" as there are other dining/snacking options throughout the complex. There are 3 levels of shopping and dining. The reason for the 3-star rating is the condition of the mall in certain areas. The management doesn't take really good care of the center. There are out of order elevators with others that needed a good cleaning or an upgrade. See pictures. The center does offer a large garage with free parking. That's very rare in Los Angeles. The garage looks very dated, but it served its purpose, so no major complaints.

For those looking for a quick shopping experience, there is none more appropriate than Burbank…read moreEmpire Center. It is right off the 5 Freeway less than a couple miles from the Burbank Airport. There are plenty of shopping options anchored by Best Buy, Walmart, Lowe's, Staples and Target. There are plenty of culinary options anchored by Outback Steakhouse, Olive Garden, Panda Express and Sharky's Mexican Restaurant. There are plenty of libation options anchored by Starbucks, Jamba Juice and BevMo! There are plenty of other shopping options all around. Traffic flow gets a little stiff from time to time but multiple access points mitigate that very well. Your trip here will not end in disappointment.

This is a great little area inside Burbank Empire Center. You have a Blaze Pizza, Hook Burger,…read moreBevmo, GNC, Jamba Juice, Cava, Dave Hot Chicken and many more. I came to this area in the morning today to stop by Starbucks to get a drink for my wife. But I been to the Blaze Pizza here and Bevmo. I didn't have a great experience at this Bevmo so I never went back. There plenty of parking here or you can just park in the Burbank Empire Center area as well. I believe there a Green Lantern statue here so when I come back I'll look for it.

I've been to the Glendale Galleria literally millions of times over the years. Because I've visited…read moreso often, I know every single nook and cranny of the place. I even know the history of all the stores that have been there for a long time, as well as the ones that have closed over the years. I usually come here to shop for cosmetics and clothes, and I often have lunch or dinner here while shopping. With Macy's, Bloomingdale's, and Nordstrom nearby at the Americana -- which I always end up visiting too since it's right across the street -- this area is truly a one-stop shopping place. Since I've shopped at many of the cosmetics and clothing stores here over the years, a lot of the sales associates let me know in advance by email or text about pre-sale events and gift-with-purchase promotions. However, last Sunday, April 26th, I came here shopping with my mother, and she lost her Gucci sunglasses. She went back today to look for them, but sadly, they were not in the lost and found. She probably misplaced them while trying on clothes in a fitting room. Actually, I also lost my Chanel sunglasses here twice a long time ago, and I still remember how upset I was back then. Since this mall gets very crowded, especially on weekends, I think things like this can happen more easily. One of the biggest advantages of Glendale Galleria is that parking is free. And because there are so many different stores all in one place, it's very convenient for one-stop shopping. But one downside is that whenever I call Macy's, it's incredibly hard to get connected to the individual departments. I really wish it was easier to get through to their customer service on the phone. Also, at some point, they got rid of the toilet seat covers in the restrooms near the Food Court, which I think is a huge downside.

Absolutely obsessed with Glendale Galleria. Came for "just…read moreone thing" and somehow left with bags, boba, and a serotonin boost. The vibe is clean, bright, and low-stress (which is rare for malls tbh). Great mix of stores, easy parking, and it's dangerously close to amazing food spots. 10/10 for retail therapy and people-watching. Will be back when my wallet emotionally recovers.

The Empire Center is typically the place I go to for running errands in Burbank. It has a lot of…read morepopular shops in one place like Target, Lowe's, Michael's, Nordstrom Rack, Walmart, Best Buy, etc. It's really convenient that I can get a lot of errands done in one trip, and the center always feels clean and safe when I'm there. On a clear day the mountain views are actually really nice too. My only complaint is the parking lot, mainly how it's designed. The layout is a little odd and the restaurant side can get very packed. Sometimes it takes a while to find a spot anywhere close to where I need to go. Half the time I just give up and park further away from where I want to go. Other than that, it's a solid shopping center and I end up here all the time. I'm giving it 4 stars because of the parking situation.

I used to like to come and shop, dine at the Empire Center when it opened…read more It is a huge, outdoors shopping center in Burbank. Free parking. But lately it's an necessary evil, I come only when I really need certain items I have to get in stores at Target, Best Buy, Michaels and the dreaded Walmart. Lots of chains which I try to avoid as much as possible. I stopped coming here for dining or donuts at Krispy Kreme as I don't care for them anymore for years now. Much better choices elsewhere. Traffic got congested in the area, I even saw accidents happen. Also, no one wants to give your turn here at Stop signs. It makes it more stressful.

I am so surprised that I haven't done a review on Americana at Brand for all these years that I…read morehave been going there, shopping at their finest stores, and eating at their finest restaurants, which my friends and I always had the pleasure of doing. It has been a while since I'd gone there, up until last night around 6:30 pm. We didn't go out to dinner, but had few things from their cute stands that sell coffee, pretzels, and ice cream. Sat outside to watch the water show that comes on every hour. It is SO beautiful, refreshing on any day, especially during evening time to closing time. They have variety of things to do there. There is everything for everyone to keep them busy. It's breathtaking and just simply wonderful & green all around you. Some of the great places to dine are the Cheesecake Factory, an Italian restaurant called Amici. They have fine, delicious Italian food. Have been there few times, and once on a date. They gave a 2 spirit Barnes & Noble for book lovers, an AMC movie theatre that used to be Pacific Theaters, A Seabutter Sushi restaurant that is very good and romantic with patio seating. They also have the Mexican restaurant Frida.. Just to name a few of their iconic, yet high end businesses. You can walk, take the trolley, take your dogs for a walk, and simply enjoy the fresh air. Their Christmas lighting ceremony is MAGNIFICENT!! Must see!!! I am glad we were able to go there again last night and had a FANTASTIC time!! Service is on point. They are always cleaning the place, plenty of restrooms to use, spotless clean, and you can find parking anywhere in their parking structures and outside. Whatever that you do and spend time and money on, is valuable and SO worth it to me and so many others. 10/10.

Visually, superior to Downtown Disney. Selection of shops and eateries, I cannot say the same. I've…read moregone to Disney more, so apologies for the constant comparison. Parking varies if on if you have a pass, if you're just going to the theme park, and if you're going to do validation only for City Walk. Though, it's pretty cool that it's reduced after 5 PM (technically you can do this for Disney, and , but it's after 7-ish instead). The scale of everything and the neon lights, and photo ops are much more impressive. Great to look at, at night and this was the location of my senior prom. Wish I had the intellect to just wander around City Walk instead of being forced to be in one of their event buildings only with some of the most cringe people I've met in my life. But I digress. Dining options are tad more limited with more desserts and quick service, standard fast food chains (probably the craziest Raising Cane's I've ever seen), and a couple of sit down restaurants. Neat that they have a Pink's since it's so closely tied to Hollywood history. For shopping, they do have a bunch of businesses that you can find at your local mall like Lids, Hot Topic, Shoe Palace (lol), Tilly's and much more. I think for the must stops and unique shops, it'd be the Sanrio and Hello Kitty Cafe, that chocolate emporium place (insane name), the Line Friends shop, and of course the shop that sells all the merch from Universal Studios. Due to the distance and the cost, it's not a place I'd go out of my way for, but if you're already at Universal or it's after 5 PM, it's worth it as a tourist and to explore.

This is an amazing place to visit, sightsee, shop, and eat lunch or dinner. It reminds me a lot of…read moredowntown Disney. Make sure to check out parking before you go. A good plan is to use the Jurassic parking area (valet parking). You can get your ticketed validated at any of the main restaurants for 3.5 hours and the price is only $15.00. The most striking thing we noticed was the actual beauty of the architecture of each store. Even raising canes was amazing. Each store like Bubba Gumps and Margaritaville are really decorated nicely. We ate at Margaritaville and they have excellent food. Antijitos Mexican restaurant has some of the nicest decor i have ever seen. We plan to eat there next time. So many other shops to explore like It's Sugar and the gigantic chocolate emporium. I highly recommend making an outting here even for just some exercise or to come for lunch at one of these unique restaurants.

This is a great shopping center with different places for you to visit. I came here last night with…read moremy friends to go to Hendel Homemade ice cream for dessert.

The food is great here and customer service is outstanding. I visited the Vons grocery here as well and there 2 Starbucks here (one inside Vons and the actual store). There a decent amount of parking here and I would recommend this shopping center.

Lakeside Shopping Center is anchored by Vons, Bank of America, American Red Cross, Fantastic Sams,…read moreStarbucks, Panda Express, Lotus & Light, Cleaners, more and most recently, Handel's Homemade Ice Cream (HIC). I came to this center to support Handel's HIC Grand Opening Day. I also supported Panda Express. I didn't shop at Vons or at any of the other businesses. It's not a very big shopping center, but it was packed when I was here. Parking was slightly challenging as there are some tight space. Just be careful when backing up and exiting. Hence, 4 stars. I don't live nearby Burbank. I probably may not return back to this shopping center. If I'm in the area for whatever reason, I will definitely drop by to shop at a few of the other businesses within this shopping center. Thank you Lakeside SC!

I've driven by this mall so many times on the freeway & I finally was able to go check it out…read more Good: plenty of parking, spacious walkways, clean, doggie potty area, big movie theater. Bad: mall is split up with streets running through it, parking is expensive, extremely limited number of stores to actually shop at, majority of stores are located across the Laurel Grove Drive which is quite a walk if you parked in the main lot in the middle of the complex. I only went to Daiso, Five Below, Starbucks because those were the only ones you can shop at in the main part of the mall which is unbelievably weird. It's like this mall had an identity crisis, couldn't figure out if it should be more of an entertainment center (movie theater, restaurants) or shopping center (Daiso, Five Below, Nordstrom Rack). Many vacancies, alot of random stores that you wouldn't go to unless you had or needed to like Spectrum, nail & beauty salons, orthodontist, chiropractor, Verizon, Carbon Health. The main part of the mall is Nordstrom Rack, Starbucks, Daiso, Five Below, LA Fitness. Gnomon (computer graphics, visual effects school) & Regal Cinemas take up the majority part of this section. There seems to be no thought to what a mall shopper would want or wish to go to when they arrive to the heart of a mall. On the "strip mall" area which is across the street and around the corner, there are Ulta, Trader Joe's, mostly cafes, quick bites like Jersey Mike's, Crumbl, It's Boba Time, MOD pizza. Again, only Ulta for someone looking to do mall shopping. Although this mall is modern, clean, great parking structure (expensive but lots of spaces), there's absolutely little to offer. Would I go back?? No way! This is an incredibly disappointing shopping center & if you're hoping to do some retail therapy, go to Sherman Oaks Galleria or Westfield Fashion Square.
