I was quite grateful to my relative for recommending this place due to the fact that I am having a difficult time coming up with an appropriate gift for that friend of mine. Dresses are among those available at the store, which I believe she will like. There are also jewelry pieces, bags, and a variety of other items. After all was said and done, I purchased a dress and asked for assistance from one of the staffs. Naturally, some is quite expensive, but I believe that the majority of the costs are reasonable. It's definitely worth time coming here. Perhaps I'll return to this store in the future to purchase gifts for my partner and, of course, for myself. Everyone should take time coming here cause I assure you guys that it will be worth it!

Also, I would like to thank all of the people that have come out to support businesses in this area that were hit hard by the current political climate in Washington D.C. At the height of violence in our streets I tried to do my best by supporting some of these businesses. During this phase 18th street looked like a ghost town on a Saturday. Normally on a Saturday in this neighborhood has people teeming everywhere and the smell of an asado in the air (Yum). Having time off and having an asado is the perfect way to relax and spend time with your family. Plus, who doesn't like the smell of an asado? Well during this time period I found this shop that I thought had some really cool and unique stuff. Also, you may notice that they have a fair amount of stuff with the famous Hulu's The Bear line, "Yes Chef, No Chef" on it. If you are a fan of the show like I am, then, the interior will look familiar to you because it was in a seen on the show (I think it was season 3). I immediately recognized the store and thought to myself "cool" and great choice. Anyhow, if you find yourself in the area, pop in and check it out. They are very selective as to which artists around the country they want to buy from and in turn sell their products. Maybe you will find that one unique thing that you have been looking for that you didn't realize you need. I mean, you never know unless you check it out. My fellow Chicagoans, please go out and support your local small shops!

A very nice experience. I was impressed by their broad range of merchandise, everything from paper…read morelanterns to wood carvings to dolls. And they have a nice selection of Chinese dresses and shirts reasonably priced (even if the changing room is a little dodgy.) There were also some pretty kimono, which was awesome. There are just so many pretty things at good prices. The only thing is that, as a fair number of stores in Chinatown, it's a little cramped and somewhat difficult to get around. I couldn't even get to some of the clothing in the back since there was a ladder in the way. I'm willing to overlook that, though. The staff was really friendly and helpful, very fun to talk to. We had a little mix up because they charged us for items my brother had bought separately and they weren't really sure how to refund us but they were so nice about it and were clearly trying their best. Overall it's a nice experience, good little place to do some light knick knack shopping.

How bazaar! This place has big deals in Little China! This…read moresouvenir shop has it all. If you wanna look like you've been to China with a bunch of Chinese stuff made in China, this is the place. They do have things relating to Chicago, but a lot of the stuff is just Chinese stuff that'll sit around your house gathering dust. Think lots of little statues, vases, cups, bowls. I feel like a bull in a China shop in here- all the aisles and merchandise is so jammed close together, that every time I turn around, I feel like I'm going to break some fragile jade egg or some bamboo vase. They also sell Chinese clothing, which all seemed a bit small for my tastes. But it's pretty. It's a shop in a nice location- it's sort of in the souvenir district of Chinatown- there's a few cool other similar shops on the same street, right in front of the Chinese archway that leads you into Chinatown.

This place was amazing. I've never been anywhere else like it…read more I went a couple of weeks ago to pick up a couple of gifts, and I ended up spending about an hour in the small shop. The owners were exceptionally passionate and pleasant to be around. When picking out perfumes for my friends, I was asked to describe their personalities. The owner's (I think that both people who helped me were owners?) face lit up as he helped me find & blend the perfect perfumes. The other owner came in and beautifully wrapped the gifts with flowers that she had dried herself. I ended up unable to resist buying one for myself They blend their own perfumes and teas. Not to mention, everything was really reasonably priced. I'll definitely be going back the next time I need a gift or feel like indulging.

There's about three floors that are similar to a mall with multiple shopping areas and a food court. There is one sit down restaurant that has a huge bar and views over the river. If you're staying at the Holiday Inn downtown or the Voco downtown, there's a convenient walkway over the street so you don't even need to go outside. The food court has a huge variety of quick service restaurants: salads, barbecue, sushi, Chinese, sandwiches, and fried chicken. Multiple restaurants allow you to order food ahead and pick it up so you don't have to wait in long lines. Most of the building is office space so if you're here around 8 or 9 AM, lunchtime, or 4 to 6 PM, it's crazy busy. There are a couple entrances that have those rotating doors. My first morning here I was entering from the street level through one of those and a lady behind me came and pushed the door really fast. It was all I could do to step out the door without having to go around again. She then rushed by me and almost ran up the escalator. She must have been late for work compared to me, a wandering tourist. If you're in the area, check this place out.

None of the photos on Yelp look like this store currently. Store is dark, over stocked and most items, at least the half dozen i picked up, weren't marked.

Not the best way to run a business.

First of all I thought we were shopping at Nordstrom and as we entered the building I noticed various small shops one after another and said that this Nordstrom is like a mall....here we are The Shops at North Bridge right in the midst Magnificent Mile of Chicago. There are multi-levels filled with various shops and it seems to be not in but connected to Nordstrom as the dividing section seems to be the Jellycat and E Bar. There are escalators along with directory is provided though at the moment they seem to be under construction but getting around has not changed but just finding some of the shops was more the issue for me personally since I don't know the area well but with a bit of luck did find Royce Chocolate which is one of my favorite bougie treat that I shop for in Japan is a great find that I'm thrilled about. Thank you!

Looked like a mall with potential with many options and stores with Nordstrom as the anchor. I did se great deals and sales displayed. The restrooms are spacious and clean and saw many seating or rest areas to relax and enjoy as you walked the mall and many charging stations available. It's not clear exactly what renovations or construction was taking place but scaffolding took over the entire mall making it harder to navigate and ruined the esthetics and vibe of what the mall has to offer in my opinion!
