    My husband and I had some interest in coming to a mall to do some clothes shopping as well some Christmas shopping. With some stores already having Black Friday deals we decided trying to go before Thanksgiving was the best option. This mall fit the bill for what we wanted and we were able to get a decent amount of shopping done here. It's not far from Chicago while also being not as busy as the typical shopping area at the Magnificent Mile. If you need to get some shopping done and are in the area, this mall is a decent spot.

    Big mall but not that as big as some of the better malls around it. Chicago Ridge Mall isn't the nicest but it's cleaned up a bit and feels safe. It has lots of the mall basics like a food court and play area to keep kids occupied while you take care of things. Has some pretty annoying policies others mentioned. There's some areas of the mall that aren't as nice as others. Coming here isn't as much of a hassle. It's hardly ever crowded except a little more during holidays and such. The stores are pretty basic and mostly the kind you'll find in a mall wherever. Has pretty lame ass food choices. There's a Panda Express, enough said. Bathrooms are gross. These sometimes will be cleaned but most times there's garbage and toilet paper on the floors and stuff. Has a few really good things about it so it's not all bad. It almost is never crowded except occasionally for the holidays. There's a few cheaper stores but the majority of these can be found wherever.

    Amazing but some flaws restaurants and stores close pretty often like they removed rolled ice cream but the Korean corn dogs are pretty good

    Chicago ridge is my local area mall that I tend to frequent often I feel a little bit safer at this moment although a couple years ago it was on the news that several children got into some type of rockets and now they have enforced a curfew children have to be or teens have to be accompanied by an adult if they're under the age of 16 and I really like that so I definitely will oblige and that rule several other stores have popped up here H&H they're doing some remodeling so I believe several more are on the way various food court it's a nice open floor plan then I like it was well or all the stores are connected even all these is at the mall one of my fave stores and you have the movie theater AMC that's connected in the mall as well you can pretty much spend your whole day at this mall

    My favorite place at Chicago Ridge Mall.

    Chicago Ridge Mall has turned a corner since being sold by Westfield almost three years ago. I didn't live in the area in the 80's when it opened but it's been my mall of choice for the last twenty years. While it was owned by Westfield it seemed as if the company didn't care. Just keep the floors clean and the doors open type of thing. The last couple years have been better. Once Westfield was out of the picture things began changing. Fully remodeled restrooms were the first positive thing. Then the reopening of a couple stores that left while Westfield was the owner. In the last year there have been more new store openings than we've seen in a long time. Now the crappy metal chairs in the food court are gone and new wood stylish chairs brought in. The resting areas have all new furniture too. Currently the newly remodeled AMC Theater is my favorite place. It now includes a bar (yup, a full bar and areas to relax) and has all new modern movie recliners with reserved seating. If you haven't tried this theater in a while I say run right over. Ticket prices are lowest for the first show of the day if that helps. (Also check my Yelp review for the AMC here). The mall has also worked on its out lots (buildings not attached to the mall itself) like attracting a new Chick Fil A and also filling all the spots in the food court. I'm not a huge fan of Churro Factory (their Pilsen location is great) but the Sarku teriyaki chicken is awesome. Some evenings or weekends can bring too many teens or other unsavory people but it's no where near the issue that Ford City or North Riverside has and I see plenty of security throughout the mall at those times. Even Orland Park Mall has these issues now that kids all have cars and phones. The only thing I don't care for in the mall are the dozen or so kiosks that sell cell phone cases, hair curlers, pretend luxury hand lotion and other "cheap" stuff. I assume those kiosks make money otherwise they wouldn't be there but they get in the way and send the wrong message.

    I had some spare time after watching a movie at Ford City AMC 14, so I dropped in to see what Ford…read moreCity Mall was all about. The word on the street is that this mall used to be the spot back in the day, but from the looks of it, it isn't what it used to be. I believe that saying this mall "still is outstanding" is totally an over statement because there is nothing outstanding about it other than the history of it. And I do believe it has stores that should not be part of it due to sales being pricey, or at least prices should be adjusted. I have mentioned this a few times to my colleagues, but I believe that malls should get with the program. There needs to be positions inner mall that allow clerks to sale on online websites like Amazon and eBay to keep sales going. There could even be an incentive by giving a certain percentage off if you visit the mall, but that is just a recommendation from someone like myself that shops online. Out of the stores and restaurants inside, the ones that caught my eye were Customized Teez, The Modern Man, The Shop, Relax Center, Foot Locker, New Cajun Grill, Fruit God, and Smokehouse. As for 'Customized Teez', it had the cutest t-shirts that made me giggle. If you are into cute t-shirts relating to today's culture with funny captions, I recommend stopping in. At 'The Modern Man', I fell in love with the dress shoes and many of the flashy looking dress suits which came in velvet and sequin, but many of the items were totally out of my price range. I cannot remember the last time I purchased from a 'Foot Locker' store, but every now and then I like to stop in to view the lackluster selection of running shoes it has which nothings changed. As for 'The Shop', other than taking interest in the 'Dropout Bear' t-shirts (Kanye West trademark), I took an interest in a flight jacket inside of this store. I would say that 'The Shop' would be the only store I would shop at other than H&M. And finally, the last thing to catch my eye was the 'Relax Center' which is your place to get a traditional Chinese massage with prices ranging from $12 to $80 depending on your selection. During this visit I wanted to tour its basement which is known as "the connection" (Originally called Peacock Alley from the late 1970s through the 1980s), but being that there was not much activity in it I left it alone. The mall itself is beautiful considering that it has been around since 1965, and one of the first regional malls built in Chicago, but I personally believe that it is far from being salvaged. Despite its decline, it does have significance to those that live in the surrounding area, or those that have visited it in its prime, but I have to say that the only reason I would return at the moment would be to get a Chinese massage at the Relax Center, or to purchase a cute t-shirt from Customized Teez. Now, if I were a teenager, this mall would be the best thing since sliced bread, but since I'am in my late-thirties I will pass. Thomas G

    Evergreen Plaza Shopping Mall holds many great memories for me. I remember shopping there when I…read morewas in high school. My cousin and I would take the suburban bus that ran down Morgan Boulevard and go straight to the Plaza. We would shop at Lerner's (where my grandmother bought us identical Nehru-type dresses with black fake fur collars and cuffs). We also shopped at Montgomery Ward, 5-7-9, Thom McCann Shoes and numerous other places. When I shopped with my sisters and mother for Easter clothes or clothing for church, we would split up and meet at Walgreens for lunch. I always had a club sandwich and a tall glass of iced tea. When I married and was expecting my first child, I registered at Maternity Vogue and won a free gift when I accurately guessed the date of my daughter's birth, July 4th! In 2003, I bought a Samsung portable television at Circuit City. I still have it, and it works just fine. I also loved the movie theater. I would take my daughters, nieces and nephews there during Christmas break. We saw too many movies to name. Years later, I knew the Plaza movie theater was in trouble when I slipped into a movie theater one afternoon and was the only one to view the movie. After this happened two more times, I was not surprised to learn the movie theater was closing. That hurt....a lot. Eventually, many of my favorite stores left the mall too, such as Lerner's (which became New York and Co.), Naturalizer Shoes, Evans, 5-7-9, all of the bookstores, Walgreens, Montgomery Ward, and many others. When Walmart moved across the street and offered good deals at great prices, I knew the Plaza stores were in trouble. How could their stores possibly compete with the highly respected discount chain store? A few more years went by. Then on May 31, 2013, Evergreen Plaza Shopping Center, with the exception of Enterprise Car Rental, Planet Fitness, Applebee's, and Carson, Pirie, Scott, finally closed its doors. I am heartbroken. It's like a part of my life has shut down or disappeared. What will they do with the mall? Some say a new mall will be built in its place. Others say it may become an apartment complex. What ever they decide, they can never take away the memories. I will keep them forever and cherish each and every one. They were an important part of my life.

    I go here almost every week with my friends even tho the old place is gone now it is still goodread more

    Hey fellow Yelpers! I've been to this Ross location so many times and found so many good deals…read more Friendly staff, great inventory, & prices you just can't beat. I've been to other Ross locations and I'd have to say this is my favorite one. Customer Service: The staff are always friendly and welcoming. I always get greeted when I walk in and it feels nice. Keep up the amazing work! From time to time, I'll have returns and the associates are always patient with me whether it's me trying to find the paper receipt on my pocket or purse. The line to check out tends to be really long on the weekend, so I'd suggest maybe at least 2-3 cashiers on the register on the weekends at least to reduce the waiting time in line and a smooth & fast checkout experience. Bathroom: The bathroom is located in the back of the store. To use the bathroom, you have to notify the security or an associate since the door is locked by a pin pad. I'm assuming this is to prevent someone from stealing which is good, but interesting that the Marshalls in the same plaza isn't locked. Merchandise: This Ross location has great inventory. I'm not sure how often they restock their merchandise, but I feel like every time I come, I see something new or there's a different set up especially if a holiday is coming up like Valentine's Day, Christmas, etc. they have a dedicated seasonal section where they have items based on the season. I have a pair of UGG boots, Nike shoes, Puma shoes, and more from Ross. You can also find some good cologne/perfume here. My boyfriend is plus size and unfortunately their plus size inventory is very limited, so you are definitely better off at Burlington. Kind of random, but they sell Funko pops and DBZ figures. Overall Experience: Overall, I always have a great shopping experience at Ross at the Chicago Ridge location. The staff are friendly, great inventory, & affordable prices. I hope this review helps Ross in the Chicago Ridge location, Ross in general, & its current and future customers. Have an amazing day!

Defintely check them out. My only issue here is, in order to find something of value, you have to spend a lot of time here looking and trying on clothes but I guess that's at any bargain store you go to. Defintely try them out, if you can.

But if you have loads of cash to spare, this is a great place to go. I also like that you can look on their website prior to visiting and most of the things are also in store.

While there trying to return a damaged item purchased as new, the music that blared from the speakers was beyond anything I have ever experienced at any shopping establishment. The N word was repeated more than 20 times in one song. As if that wasn't enough, the sales people sang along with it. N*#@+ ??? I had my 9 year old niece with me and I couldn't remove her from this place fast enough. If rap lyrics come with warnings on their labels WHY WOULD YOU PLAY THEM IN A STORE??? I will NEVER shop at any Akira again. I found similar music in the Hyde Park store, only I was alone that time. I love their styles, but I will not be subject to horrific words and music while trying to put an outfit together. Shame on Akira for not being better than this.
