The Main Street Pedestrian Mall in downtown Riverside reminded me of the 3rd street Promenade in…read moreSanta Monica (or more of how it used to be). 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.

My first time and didn't really know what to expect. I've been to the Mission Inn many years ago…read morefor an event but that was it. Never checked out what was around the area. I was in town for something but had a couple of hours to kill. As you would think that their downtown Main Street area would be somewhat nice to check out. Honestly, it's a cute area but not much there. It's a few block radius with some shops. Nothing major but small mom and pop boutique. There a few small restaurants and then a couple of the bigger one. More than half of the places weren't even open and it was just after 11 in the morning. I feel like it'll get busier during the weekend as around the area are bars and clubs. It is near city hall so you do have a lot of business people but it still wasn't that busy even during lunch time. The place is well maintained and pretty clean and organized. Nice art structure placed throughout the walkway. I don't know much about Riverside but I assume oranges have something to do with it as loads of oranges trees were planted. Could also be just for decoration. There's benches placed along the walkway for seating. Honestly, it's a cute little area but would I check it out again, maybe not. There's not much there. Maybe if I'm out for the night in the area but besides that, there's not much there. I'm not familiar with the area so maybe I'm missing something but it was fine checking it out. There's parking along the street for a fee or at the parking structure nearby.

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

The clearance racks are 70% off! Found a cashmere sweater for only $20 in a gorgeous burgundy color. Didn't buy it because it was too hot for me to think about buying a sweater no matter the bargain, but I did buy a cute green beaded bracelet and a pair of long dangly earrings with clear spherical and oblong beads for a total cost of $19 . The staff were kind and helpful--one gave me the bathroom code when I needed it, and another helped me sign up for the reward program and pay for my purchases. I think I'll have to go check out the Nordstrom rack in my area sometime, because there are good deals, for shoes too!

Magnets, T-Shirts, ball caps, the super cozy robes we enjoyed in our room as well as cute little gifts for kids. The boutique isn't as crammed full of "stuff" as I remember from previous times I've visited. This would be the closest thing to a hotel "sundry shop". Nice and clean, helpful staff and the magnet I purchased was charged to our room and then placed in a cute bag. They do have a small snack section and cold beverages, but just for convenience. I'll continue to pop in when I'm visiting the Mission Inn. Cheers! "CC"

I love intimate things; quaint restaurants, quiet spaces, and small boutiques…read more Kelly's Boutique fits this intimate description. Kelly is the name of the co-owner and wife of the Mission Inn and Spa. The shop is attached to the timeless and historic property. However, the merchandise is modern and fashionable. I am always pleased to discover a new line that I have never seen before that fits my style. It's a good sign when a boutique carries brands you already enjoy. I am pretty sure Kelly has fine taste! Subtle Luxury and Pool to Party peaked my interest with fun caftans, totes and pool accessories. Resort wear all the way! I also picked out the his and her pillowcases! Oh how intimate! I look forward to seeing what's new on our next trip to the Mission Inn and Spa and Kelly's Boutique. Discoveries to be made by you too...one size fits most! #KellysBoutique #SubtleLuxury #OneSizeFitsMost

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!! If I could give zero stars, I would. My experience started off…read morepositive, as their prices were much better for the item I wanted than I had found elsewhere . Initially they were very responsive... until one of my items arrived damaged. I spent a total of $2933.00 for two sideboard tables. One of the tables came damaged, with an obvious crack in the paint/sealant right in the front and center of the table. I reached out immediately and sent photos of the damage. I received an email back stating they would let the manufacturer know and would be in contact with me ASAP. After nearly six weeks and several ignored emails and phone calls I finally reached Lisa on the phone. She put me on hold and then informed me that after speaking with Tony, they were willing to give me $100 in credit! ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!! She informed me that if I was not happy with this as resolution, I could email Tony, as he is the person who takes care of things of this sort. I emailed Tony and informed him that a $100 credit is not acceptable, seeing as the item arrived to my house damaged. I received a VERY snarky email back from Tony stating "This item is NOT DAMAGED, there is a hair in the paint." It is very clear that there is, in fact a crack and not a hair in the paint but he was insistent to keep arguing with me. He also gave me the option of "you can pay to have the item shipped back to be swapped out at our warehouse. Can you imagine what that shipping cost would be?!?! As of the time of this review, over six weeks since receiving my item, I have still not received any resolution. BEWARE of this company. The "customer service" (if that is what you even call it...) is inadequate, rude and will not work with you to make their wrongs right. They are crooks who do not care about customer satisfaction. *Edited to add: I filed a complaint with the BBB. AMB was given two weeks to respond to several attempts from the BBB to reach them and they refused so my case was closed. I'm now stuck with this damaged furniture that I paid full price for with zero consequences to the crummy company who refuses to make it right. Tony and his team are CROOKS!!!!!!

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 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.

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!
