I've been here almost two years, and it took an out-of-towner to tell me about this place. I'm…read moregoing to use as an excuse that Houston is a large city for the reason why I did not know. Also, there are two stores right across the street from each other. Now, each building houses its own inventory, and what's across the street is totally different from the store across from it. Once inside, I will say the selection varies from one shop to the next. I can honestly say you will find what you are looking for or even more things you didn't know you liked. Now, my heart lies with all things gems, beads, and stones. But I soon kept wondering and discovered there were these cute scarves for a really great price that I adored. Well, I kept going on, and on and I kept buying to the store across the street, it was a nice day.

Oh, The Galleria! My ex-husband is from Houston and I've…read morebeen to The Galleria many, many times. In fact, I started going long before I knew my husband. My dad also lived in Houston and we'd often do shopping or eating at the mall. My daughter (who is now 30) loved (& still does) skating at the ice rink during the holidays. It's a magically fun experience. The Galleria is always incredibly decorated for the holidays. I still get to Houston 1-2 times a year and always enjoy visiting The Galleria. The Galleria itself has not only the ice rink but office space, two hotels, lots of places to eat, and shopping. The retail offerings range from shops like H&M, Macy's, and Nordstrom to high-end luxury shops like Gucci & Chanel. We were there just a few months ago and it was just as fun and exciting as my first visit! Gang, there are so many stores here. Like crazy amounts (a few hundred). It's very large and easy to navigate and of course gets extremely busy during peak times. A must-visit for locals and tourists alike.

Shopping can be hit or miss, and on this particular day, it was definitely a miss. My friends and I…read moreare dedicated bargain shoppers, and despite our best efforts, the Houston Galleria wasn't giving up any deals. With only about an hour before leaving Houston, our shopping mission was more of a speed run than a leisurely browse. Even without scoring any purchases, the Houston Galleria remains an impressive destination. The moment you step inside, you experience bright lights, multiple levels of stores, and a steady stream of shoppers that create an energetic, bustling atmosphere. Beyond shopping, the mall offers entertainment options such as its iconic indoor ice-skating rink, making it easy to spend an entire day there. One of the Galleria's biggest strengths is its variety. Luxury retailers like Chanel and Louis Vuitton share space with more accessible brands such as Banana Republic and American Eagle, offering something for nearly every budget and style. Whether you're on a focused shopping mission or simply window-shopping, there's plenty to explore...even if, in our case, we left empty-handed. The dining options are equally diverse, ranging from food-court favorites to sit-down restaurants like The Cheesecake Factory and Shake Shack to Chic-fil-a. While we didn't find the bargains we were hoping for, our fast-and-furious shopping adventure was filled with laughter and great conversation, and the kind of fun that comes from spending time with good friends. Sometimes spending quality time with friends is the best find of all.

My kittens like to do the Kitten Olympics all night, maybe they should come and do them in the…read moreOlympic Center instead so I can get some sleep. Very silly name for a plaza, let's be honest. I mean, there's nothing Olympic at all about it, it's actually the heart of Indiatown, full of South Asian gems. It's a wonderful plaza full of Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, and other delights from South Asia and the subcontinent. This is the epicentre and hotbed of all things Desi in greater Houston, and even though Sugar Land probably has more Indian restaurants, some of the very best ones are here, not least Shri Balaji Bhavan, which is one of the best South Indian meals we've ever had, and of course the legendary Himalaya, which my good friend Kashif first introduced me to, where the Chicken Hara Masala is life-changing. Not to mention the best Persian restaurant in Texas is here - Darband. And so much more! It's also known as Mahatma Gandhi district. And my girl looks stunning here, too. I'll get my coat, ma. And ma hat, ma.

But now...OMG this mall has totally changed! I wouldn't step foot in here ever! This place is the most ghetto-est mall ever! By far the number one in Houston I think! In case you are wondering where to get your PAUL WALL grills at...this is the place for you! Since this is where Paul Wall gets his grill!

This place is far from being an upscale shopping mall, but for what it is, it's pretty great…read more After Sharpstown went so far into decline, the renovations are complete, and while there's still a disappointingly large number of empty storefronts, this has turned into the type of mall that you don't find in Houston, but will definitely find south of the border. Two large sections of the mall are carved out into Mercados, providing shopping experiences similar to what you'd find in Mexican open air markets. It may be a bit weird to see a flea market style atmosphere in the mall, but that's exactly what it is, complete with live performances like a Mariachi group every Sunday. There aren't a lot of major chains in this mall, and Burlington Coat Factory is probably the only thing that could possibly qualify as an anchor store, but they just added a new predominantly Spanish cinema and they've loaded up their food court with one-off establishments that serve quality food, which is a major plus.

There are also 2 sexy nightlife bars, one of which is a hot Latin strip club I believe. So it's a good plaza, and for food, one of the best undiscovered plazas in town.

Unfortunately it has the huge crowds, lack of parking, and horrid drivers just like a large Asian city. It's probably manageable for the people that are actually from a large city in China though.

It's a massive two-story complex and the variety is just insane--you have everything from high-end ramen and spicy Sichuan spots to bubble tea shops on basically every corner. It's not just food, either. You can spend hours wandering through the different stores, checking out the boutiques, or hitting up the grocery store. It's got such a great energy, especially on the weekends.

Some of the best plazas are (sigh) gone, but this one remains, and is the heart of "Vietnamesetown"…read moreas my friend called it, the other day, correcting me when I called it Chinatown. Indeed, Teaholic has some wonderful Vietnamese drinks and a lot of delicious Boba, such as the Strawberry Black Tea which is one of the best of its kind anywhere. And the Strawberry Aloe reminds me of the Aloe Refresher from Fruitealicious in Dallas. Amazing. Bambu, next door, is the very best location of the Viet dessert and drink chain, making some of the best smoothies you'll ever have - especially the Honeydew, the Taro Coconut, the Mocha, and the Berry. But there's a lot more than just Viet stuff here, with amazing Korean Chicken (Lim's) as well as soups and stews and rice stone pot bowls aplenty. Zero Degrees (Cali chain) has a wonderful and popular location here, with their Strawberry Mojito and Strawberry Lime drinks off the charts, and their Cucumber Lime, Viet Coffee, Strawberry Horchata, and more, also stellar. Not a fan of Chili and Mango stuff, but their Mangonada is famous and popular too. And they do split cups (so does Teaholic). Long Coffee, Kravin, a location of the chain Mango Mango, and other spots in this plaza, are also well worth a visit. Parking and access can be really difficult, but then the same can be said about my gf. And now she's (sigh) gone.

This is a massive sprawling and magical shopping center that it's hard not to love. I know strip malls are ugly and generic, but not all are created equal, and this massive oval-shaped monstrosity is honestly beautiful, and some of the fancy restaurants along the highway are gorgeous, with lake views. We've been loving it for a long time, since a couple of days after I met Barbi, when I came here. There's a lot going on here, so many stores and a lot of love honestly. A lot of fond memories and wonderful times I've had here over the years at FOTL, much better than LOTR for example. So I have a very close and romantic association with it. There was a Borders here long long time ago and I fell in love, and that's how it goes. You know how it goes. Lots of love in this place. I lake what I see. You will too.
