From the moment she greeted me, she was warm, friendly, and genuinely interested in helping me find what I needed. I mentioned I was looking for new makeup for an upcoming trip, and Jeri went above and beyond. She gave me excellent recommendations, helped me put together the perfect combinations, and even taught me a few things that I'll definitely carry into my makeup routine moving forward. What stood out most was her patience and professionalism. Even in such a busy store, while working alone, she managed multiple customers flawlessly and with ease. It was honestly impressive and beautiful to watch her handle everything so smoothly without ever making anyone feel rushed. On top of that, she made sure to tell me about current promotions, which helped me save tremendously. I ended up purchasing all of her recommendations and couldn't be happier. Jeri made my shopping experience exceptional, and I will absolutely return to see her again for future purchases. Highly recommend! RR (Aruba lady)

I want to say I used to LOVE this Macy's. Shopping for clothes as a plus-sized woman has always…read morebeen difficult and this Macy's always had good quality and fashionable finds. I don't know what has happened over the course of the summer but they have shrunk the department in half and a lot of the better quality items from Donna Karan and Calvin Klein have disappeared. This is extremely aggravating since I have always counter ok the location for my work wear and casual finds and have shopped with their personal shoppers many times. Americans are still getting bigger despite ozempic and are here to stay. Nordstrom has already done away with their plus size section in store and Macy's was one of the few places left to shop in person. It is very disappointing to see this happening and very fat phobic of Macy's.

Moving along, went to the store on a busy Saturday afternoon, and there was indeed a great selection of clothes that i was in search of. The downside is that the dressing rooms don't have a seat inside and due to a knee injury i had to wait a long time for the only stall to become available. The dressing room area is extremely busy and the staff appeared overwhelm with the consumption of clothes left behind by customers. The space in the store is good, nothing appears cluttered or scattered and the floors are kept clean. Needed to use the restroom and that is also an area that only has one per gender and the lines become a bit much. Due to the restrooms overuse it definitely requires additional cleaning to maintain it clean and stocked with toiletries. Overall ok experience, I was not asked if I needed assistance by a staff member.

This Target is located in the heart of 34th Street Herald Square, right next to Sephora and across…read morethe street from none other than the biggest Macy's in the entire world. Very close to all the train routes. Shelves are stocked and neatly organized for the most part. This spot is supposedly smaller than other locations in the city. But that's okay, at least I didn't see anything like toys lying on the floor. No kids running around. Clean aisles + brightly lit area + decently spacious to walk around on your own. Surprised to see some Squishmallows peeking out in between other plushies. So, I was trying to reach for the ones from the top shelf. Staff from afar saw me struggling to reach but didn't offer any help + kept looking on and went back to chatting/joking with a coworker. This was around 9:30pm on a Sunday evening. I guess just a minor hiccup there, I will let it pass. Customers can find a limited yet decent selection of things like electronics, groceries, beauty and skincare/makeup, hygiene related products etc in each of their specific sections/aisles. The designs on greeting cards looked lovely. Some things were on sale like cat food - $10 for 12 cans. You just gotta stroll around to find out. It's convenient to have a Target in Midtown/next to the major train lines. Maybe I will stop by again, hopefully the service from employees will be better next time.

Macy's Backstage is an off-price store-within-a-store concept. Macys offers a selection of…read moremerchandise at discounted prices, including clothing, accessories, home goods, and beauty products, and more. I'm all for discounts and I do check out the shoes. I have found that in the past when I purchase shoes at Macy's in the regular shoe department I spend too much money for shoes that hurt my feet. I'm getting rid of yet another pair that I purchased a 1/2 size too small because the sales person ill advised me. You can see in my photos my Merrill that are expensive too. Bottom line if you are looking for a more affordable pair of shoes or other items check Macy's Backstage First!!

If you like bargains this is the place to check out! It's right near the Port Authority bus station…read moreso it's right at a good location for travelers. They have a big variety of close outs and bargains you will be hard pressed to find anywhere else. They can sell things such as designer sunglasses that would cost you around $20 or more for just $1! They have all types of assorted personal and household items, as well as clothing at amazingly low prices. They also have all sorts of food items. Not everything is a big bargain but mostly it's all priced pretty well. If you know your prices you won't overpay, but keep in mind it's not ALL cheaper than you could find elsewhere. They have a lot of food items, although some of them are close to expiration, but often it doesn't matter at all since the expiration dates don't mean much and you can freeze things as well. They have a lot of cheeses at super bargain prices, and also chocolates that would cost you 3 times as much elsewhere. Chocolates don't really go bad quickly either. Overall it's a great place to check out if you are in the area and looking for some bargains and close outs!

The store was very clean and orderly and the lines moved quickly. Especially being right near Times Square, expected it to be more messy. The staff here do a good job.

They were genuinely kind, warm, and welcoming from the moment I walked up to the counter. They took their time helping me choose a candle and diffuser, answered all my questions, and gave me recommendations without ever making me feel rushed or pressured to buy anything. Acqua di Parma also had an artist there who could customize and hand-paint the candle, which made it feel even more special. Tamara and Darian helped me through the whole process and made sure I was happy with everything. What stood out to me most was how friendly and patient they were. It felt like they actually cared about helping me find something I would enjoy rather than just trying to make a sale. I also had an amazing experience with Rani at the Clinique counter. She went above and beyond helping me find the right foundation and shade for my skin. She was incredibly patient and made sure I was actually happy with what I chose. Experiences like this make me want to keep coming back to Bloomingdale's. I used to shop at Sephora a lot, but I've found that it can be more expensive for what I'm looking for and sometimes it's difficult to even find someone who has the time to really help you. I feel like department stores have gotten overlooked over the years with Sephora, Ulta, and other beauty stores expanding everywhere. I honestly forgot how much better the service and personalization can be at a department store. Having someone actually take their time with you and help you find what works for you makes such a difference. Thank you Tamara, Darian, and Rani for being so kind and making my experience feel personal. This is the kind of customer service that makes me want to keep coming back to Bloomingdale's 59th Street!

I walked 1.2 miles from my hotel to get here and was very impressed when I walked in! It's like a large department store which is set up like a mall filled with boutiques. They have multiple Prada boutiques, as well as all the other popular designers, all organized by menswear, ladies, perfume, etc. Service was GREAT too! I was shopping for myself, so I stayed in menswear, on the lower level and Ruthie helped me. She got me a great jacket from Peter Millar, a nice polo from Burberry, and a couple other small things. Definitely will be returning... soon!!

TESO Life is a Korean and Japanese lifestyle and convenience store in Koreatown on 32nd Street,…read morespread across two floors. I walked into a space that covers a lot of ground, from snacks and drinks to beauty products, home goods, and collectibles, and the density of what is on display makes it easy to spend more time browsing than I planned. The snack selection is the strongest draw and covers an impressive range. I saw Asian versions of familiar American snacks sitting alongside Japanese and Korean originals, and the drink section downstairs is broad enough that finding something I have not tried before is a near certainty. The variety of drinks, many with anime or character branding, reflects a buying approach that goes beyond the standard convenience store selection. The beauty and skincare section upstairs is well stocked with Korean and Japanese brands that are not widely available at American drugstores. I browsed through everything from face wash to sheet masks and specialty treatments, and the prices are competitive for imported products of this type. Blind boxes occupy their own significant section, and the selection across different series is one of the better in the city, with reasonable pricing relative to what the same items cost at specialty toy stores. Home goods, toys, collectibles, and kawaii accessories fill the remaining floor space. For a one stop shop for Korean and Japanese lifestyle goods, snacks, and beauty products in Koreatown, TESO Life delivers a broad and browsable experience that rewards repeat visits.

The entrance lobby is big with 2 elevators and escalators. The thing about this Target is that it is extremely small and is not a super store like the ones in the suburbs. It's cool how they made space for this Target in Times Square. They do not have the $1, $3, and $5 value item section in this location. I wish they have that. There are many good steals with that. They have many self checkout kiosks in this location and a ramp to the food pantry towards the back of the store. They have many travel essentials by the checkout section for tourists since Times Square got a lot of tourists.
