    Only the bottom was replaced when I wanted the whole thing.
    Krissie D.

    This review is of the shoe repair services offered. Stay away. If you value your shoes, or time, stay away from this repair place. I dropped my boots and strap work sandals off on October 30 for heal repair. The gentleman checked them in, gave me a ticket and said that the latest they will be done was on November 4, and they would call me. November 4 comes and go, no phone call. I'm local, so I stop in on Friday November, 8 to check. The guy couldn't find them. After 30 min of him searching, and me about to blow up, I show him a picture of them (thank god I took a before picture) and 5 minutes later he finds them. THEY HADN'T EVEN BEEN TOUCHED. Gentleman now assures me they will be done that day and I can pick them up on Saturday the 5th...don't worry he says... we will call you. Guess what? No phone call. I go in today during my lunch break, it's now November 13 to get my shoes back, whether they were fixed or not. The front desk person couldn't help me, the other gentleman who works behind the scenes couldn't help me, and they both insisted I wait on the one person who could. He was helping another lady at the moment fit shoes, which is fine, but with 3 people in the shop, SOMEONE GIVE ME MY SHOES! I didn't have time to wait, (this guy moves very slow... not to knock him, because I'm sure at his age I'll be slow too, but be prepared) so I left my number and said I wanted my shoes today, fixed or not fixed. They FINALLY called me about 30 minutes after I left saying they were done. I go to get my shoes, they are at the counter ... they charge me $28.00, I look at my shoes... disaster. I told them that specifically on my boots I wanted to heal to be replaced, the whole thing. We had a conversation about it. The bottom rubber part was replaced, and the heal was PAINTED. THE PAINT WAS STILL WET and got all over my hands. As I told the person who checked me out, she said if you aren't happy let go get "him" to talk to you about it. If you want your shoes spray painted, and terribly done then come here! I could had done a better job myself, cheaper, with shoe repair stuff I found on Amazon' SincI didn't have another 30 minutes to talk to the guy (who I don't know his name since no one told me) told her to simply pass the message and this isn't the way to do business. I just wanted my darn shoes back so I could take them to a place that had better service, better organization and valued your time. I will NEVER be back, and anyone I talk to I will be sure to NEVER recommend this place. *Update* The man in charge (owner) personally called me to make things right. He took his time to explain things, and gave me a refund. He listened to my concerns and addressed them. So thank you for making it right! That speaks a lot about a business.

    They tried but in the past they have done a great job. Total fail!

I fell in love with this little shop on Tarpon Avenue in Tarpon Springs. They have a very nice selection of clothing, shoes, homemade soaps, lotions, hats and jewelry. I purchased an adorable wrap-around striped shirt. I should have tried it on the store but I did not. I tried it on when I got back to my friends house and it didn't fit quite right. I didn't have time to return it Sunday and the store was closed Mondays and that's the day I went home to Jacksonville. I called the store Tuesday and the owner was willing to work with me. I mailed the shirt to the store and she gave me a store credit that I could use online. That is exceptional customer service! Which was much appreciated as the shirt was $26! And I have no doubt that I'll find something cute online. Update: I found another piece that I loved on the FB page and it is in the mail to me now. Can't wait until it arrives! If you are in the Tarpon Springs area you must stop by and check out Ella's Boutique. You will find unique items that you will not see in a department store.

This place is located beside severe different shops on Tarpon Ave. It's the perfect place to stop by after a nice breakfast or brunch! They have super trendy, cute clothes on mannequin stands outside to invite you in. Once you get inside it smells super yummy with lots of clothes on either side of the store. The inside interior is beautiful! The changing rooms are super big with lots of cute decorations inside. The sell tons plenty of other stuff besides the clothes. There is jewelry, soaps, lotions, shoes, hats, and wine decorations! So many different options with the clothing. It ranges from dresses, to rompers, cute skirts, tanks, and more! The woman inside the store who was working was very sweet. There was cookies for anyone to have on the check out counter. My aunt and I bought some clothes ;we couldn't resist. My tank was very soft and she bought a cute dressy shirt for going out. I could have bought everything in there if I was able to. For the material and style of the clothes they were decently priced. My tank was about $17 and normally a tank like that online would be around $25-30. I recommend this place to all the fashion lovers and cutesy finds! You won't regret it

The store was clean and neat, and I was greeted as soon as I entered. One of the employees even helped me find a section of wide sized shoes, and pointed out how to identify them by their boxes, which was very helpful. The difficult part came when I was trying to match up pairs. Many of the boxes were mismatched, and the shoes inside were different sizes or the left shoe would be standard and the right shoe would be wide, etc. The store was running a BOGO 50% off promotion, so I decided to pick out a 2nd pair of shoes for my youngest son as well. The promotion required the purchase of a new release style, in order to get your second pair 50% off. I didn't find this out until the cashier informed me of it at the register, so I had to go back and pick out a different pair of shoes than what I originally had wanted. I picked out a different style, and checked the right shoe in the box to make sure the size matched the box, which it did. When I was checking out, the cashier stated that they were checking both shoes to make sure they were the same sizes. I saw them open the box and inspect the shoes, but I still ended up getting a mismatched pair. The right shoe that I checked, was the correct size (5Y), but the left shoe that the cashier checked was two sizes too big (7Y). I found this out later that night when I got home, and my son tried the shoes on. I had to drive back to the store to get the correct left shoe. Overall, I would say the store has a good selection of new brands and styles, but you may spend time finding a matched pair. If you are looking for a bargain, you will have better luck at Ross or Marshals nearby.

    I was very disappointed with the lack of customer service that I recieved at the hands of Heather…read morethe store manager today. I purchased two pair of shoes, they had a sale for buy one pair at full price get the 2nd one for 1/2 off three weeks ago. One of the shoes had a manufacture's defect and the right shoe in the toe area was ripping. These sneakers were $104.99. I took them to a shoe repair shop and I was told basically it was a entailed repair and it would cost $30.00. Since the shoes were less than a month old I called the store this morning and spoke to Heather, the store manager. She was helpful on the phone. She checked to see if they had the same shoe in the store and found it and put it aside for me. I was initial impressed with her. BUT, it didn't last. When I arrived at the store I found the same sneakers in black and wanted to additional purchase them as well as exchange the defective pair. There are two huge signs in the window buy the first pair at regular price and get the second one at half price. I asked Heather if I could purchase the additional pair at half off. She said yes! Then when we got to the register and she looked at my receipt she changed her mind and said I had already purchased a pair at half off at the time of the initial transaction. I was in SHOCK! Where is the customer service!?! I was again purchasing a new pair of shoes at full price!!!! I should have been allowed to buy the second pair at half off. I was a very happy customer of this location. I have bought all my families sneakers at this store since they opened it. I will never be back again. I will drive to any other location. After all the money I've spent in that store to not be given the slightest customer service gesture is absolutely unacceptable. And lets' not forget that the whole reason this happened was I purchased a pair of shoes for over $100.00 that were defective! Heather should be ashamed of herself and in my opinion is totally unqualified to be a "manager". She needs training in "customer service" at the very least! Come on Sketchers replace this women!!!!
