And then one day, I saw a Trader Joe product Hubbers might want to try and it was naturally a delight to find one just on the other side of the freeway. I was even more thrilled to find tons of other stores! To be honest, I've been to at least a couple of them but that was eons ago that the memory has been completely wiped out. But hey, I consider this a good recovery! I'm glad I found myself up in here again. Here's hoping the memory never get wiped out again. Coming through more often might help, so I think I'll do that...

The kid brother loved it - my friend Adam not so much. The thought it was strange that three grown ass adults would go to such a place. If your with the kid brother - everything is strange.

Seems like anything and everything is here!…read more I wouldn't have known how extensive everything is up in here if I didn't come as a guest at Planet Fitness. There's tons going on in here!

Need to get your nails done? CHECK! Need tires?! CHECK CHECK! This shopping center has so much to offer. It's practically a one stop anything! Conveniently located right next to 80.

I love this entire center…read more Spots I've hit here are the following: - Home Depot - Big Lots - Round Table Pizza - Naan Stop Kabob (previously Curry Me Up) - Genki Sushi House Restaurant - Dragon Terrace - City of Ember Okay, so that's a lot as it is, right? But there are many still I haven't checked out yet. The variety of eateries alone is enough reason to come check it out. If you are hungry and can't make up your mind what to eat, you'll probably find something up in here. Plenty of parking - as many times as I've been here, it's never been an issue. So, if you ever find yourself needing something for house repairs and in the mood for Chinese food and need to stop at the bank?! This is your spot.

This place is OK. I say that because it is the smallest Nordstrom rack I've ever seen, and…read moretherefore it doesn't have a very large selection of things to buy. Usually in other places when I come across a rack, I can spend hours perusing the store . This is not my first time coming here to buy something. However, I noticed that every time I buy something I leave empty-handed. The most successful thing I have managed thus far is to return some thing without any problems. But I could've done that anyway. The selection isn't fantastic. It isn't comprehensive. And right now I'd rather go to Emeryville and risk actually finding some thing I can buy, rather than come here and look around. Actually, I'd actually go to an actual Nordstrom store because I know they're gonna have what I want. It may not be at the price that I want, but it will be there!

Last night, 12/16/25, I was very disappointed with my experience at this store…read more I was looking for hosiery and asked a staff member who was restocking if they carried thigh-high tights. The associate responded with visible irritation, looked at me as though I was inconveniencing her, and handed me knee-high tights in a dismissive manner while saying, "Is this it?" I clarified that I was looking for thigh-highs, not knee-highs. Rather than engaging further, I chose to walk away. When I reached the checkout area, there were only two employees present. One was assisting a customer with an issue that ended up taking approximately thirty minutes to resolve. The other cashier was juggling a long line, around seven customers, while also helping someone who had returned to the store to have a security tag removed from their purchase. Eventually, the associate handling the unresolved issue asked for help from a manager, Joey. I assumed this was to assist with ringing up customers and reducing the growing line. Instead, the associate explained she was unable to provide a gift receipt despite trying multiple solutions. Joey, the same manager who had been dismissive during my hosiery inquiry, responded rudely to her employee, gave her an unpleasant look, and instructed her to repeat steps she had already attempted. Rather than stepping in to resolve the issue herself, Joey walked away entirely. As a customer, this was shocking to witness. The associate had been trying to resolve the issue for thirty minutes, and as management made no effort to take over, support their employee, or acknowledge the long line of customers who had been waiting patiently. Instead, the associate was left to try the same unsuccessful steps at multiple registers. Management showed no awareness of the situation on the floor, no urgency to assist customers who had been waiting for an extended period, and no respect toward their own staff. Especially during a busy weekday evening and the holiday season, this lack of leadership and efficiency was unacceptable. Nordstrom Rack, effective management should be able to read the room, support employees, and keep the store running smoothly. Experiences like this negatively affect not only customers but also staff morale, and ultimately reflect poorly on the company as a whole.

The 99c store was a great discovery and that is the ONE place I frequent here. (It is my go-to for…read morebasics should I need them for the next few days.) But it isn't the only store up in here. There's also a pretty good assortment of eateries up in here. The top three I would recommend are Embers, Hunan Villa (Hubbers and I love this place) and Tachikawa. Where to go is dependent on your taste buds' mood for the moment. Parking is available, but there have been times it's gotten crowded. It really isn't an issue (at least not from my experience) as one or a few will open up in a matter of a few seconds. So, yes. I'm a fan.

There is a wheelchair ramp between these two stores with a yellow part at the base of the ramp that is peeling up. Somebody knows about it as there is one orange cone at the worst part. An elderly person could break a hip and end up dumped in a nursing home. These places can be hell on earth. Good mix of stores and a low end grocery store and restaurants and probably most everything you might need if you live nearby.

I also found a heavily discounted $0.70 sympathy card. The line had the longest wait I've ever had at a TJ Maxx or similar type of store; I was waiting over 30 minutes. A lot of people were shopping here, maybe because it was President's Day, and they didn't seem to have enough staffing of cashiers for it. They had more deals indicated with red or yellow price stickers than I'm used to seeing at TJ Maxx, including many heavily discounted candles, discounted notebooks, and there were also a lot of CeraVe and Cetaphil moisturizing creams and lotions. The selection of items was decent, the main pain point was just the amount of time it took for checkout.
