    Even as an older adult, holy cow, this store is so cute! I don't know much about the popular stuffies these days...I've just become aware of the brand, Jellycat, from my kid, and this place has a good collection of them along with Snuggle Bunnies, Mon Ami, Miffy, Hello Kitty, etc. They also have the popular blind boxes. This is located in The District at Tustin, on the Jamboree Road and Barranca Parkway side. It is sandwiched between Ulta and Nothing Bundt Cakes. I mean, everything is just cute...but kind of expensive. I don't need any stuffed animals at my age, so I only come here when my kid wants to. They do have a nice selection of bag/key charms so on this most recent visit, I did end up buying one - Gromit from Wallace and Gromit...he was the last one, and the employee said that they discontinued them so of course I was like, ring me up, gurrrl. He was $15, and most of the bag/key charms are around there and up. They also have Snoopy stuffies, which my kid loves (but has no money to get one). They do offer a 7-day return period for in-store purchases granted they are in their original condition/packaging, but blind boxes and clearance items are final sale.

    Updated - they did address my issue and I got a refund though it required quite alot of effort for something that really wasn't my fault. A constant back and forth can be pretty draining - nonetheless I'll visit again as they do keep the social media updated hopefully my future experience is better.

    CALLING ALL MIFFY & JELLYCAT LOVERS!! Jini Mini is the spot if you're on the hunt for a miffy, jellycat, snoopy, or gudetama plushy! This store is so cute and really is the perfect place to find a gift. They have an awesome selection of plushies, keychains, and baby toys. During our visit, they even sold traditional kids hanboks. The workers are friendly and helpful. Prices of each plushy is about $20-$30. We picked up a coffee cup and sun jellycat. The plushies are so soft with quality craftsmanship. This store is moving locations to Tustin in February 2025 so keep that in mind.

    This is such a cute shop and new-ish addition to central Orange County. I used to frequent this plaza when I lived in West Irvine and recently stopped by when visiting a friend who still lives in the area. If you're a Miffy or Jellycat fan or just really love all things kawaii, then this is the place for you!

    Jini Mini is a gem of a gift shop with some of the best Jellycat selection in SoCal! This spot is located in the Orchard Hills plaza where there is a good amount of parking spots. Inside, they have a bunch of plushies, keychains, and other goodies. They are mostly known for their Jellycat selection but they also carry a great selection of Miffy, Snoopy, and Sanrio products! All of the staff here are very friendly and welcoming. Everytime I stop by here, I never leave empty handed! Come stop by here and check it out for yourself!

    We stopped by earlier this week to check out the store. It's a super cute shop with a wide variety of Jellycats, plushies, keychains, bags, bag charms, baby toys, and more. The store is located next to the Ulta and Barnes and Noble. The prices vary but are reasonable compared to online prices. There was one friendly employee working at the time. My boyfriend loves Jellycats so we found a super cute dusty pink kitty plushie to add to the collection. There are new Jellycats and plushies always coming out so we'll definitely be back.

    Jelly cats galore. So many fuzzy, fluffy, adorbs to pick from for graduates and little ones and everyone in between. What a cute store and the price comes with it too, no doubt. Three small cuteness will run you about $80 so be ready but no one leaves here without a smile and hearts full. Don't take your kid in there unless you're ready to spend. Good luck.

    Original price - taken at 1pm.

    Updated Review: Here's an update to my previous review. After I left the store and shared my experience, the owner personally reached out to me to ask about what happened and offered to make it right. It's easy for a business--especially one gaining popularity--to overlook a single negative review, but the fact that the owner took the time to reach out and correct the issue shows that they truly care about customer experience. I haven't had a chance to speak with the employee or manager who originally assisted me, but based on the owner's sincerity and professionalism, I'm more than pleased with how the situation was handled. Because of this, I'm happy to amend my previous review and will most likely return in the future. Thank you again for making it right.

    super cute little place by Pavillions. Sign says they're moving to the District down the street soon. Little pricey for such small items, but to be expected for Jelly Cat items and such. Toys seem like good quality and are very soft. Cashiers are super nice and helpful.:) They even give the cutest bags.

    So cute!!! So dangerous for me to go here... I would spend my savings here. Extra large stuffies are not for sale. They don't carry a lot of Sanrio items. Mostly jelly cat.

    Jini Mini was a very cute store! It was pretty small, and very crowded but it had a good selection of jelly cats, which is what my friends and I were there for. Regarding service, the line to purchase was quick and easy. The jelly cats were very expensive, but were expecting the prices to be around 15-100.

    Cathleen Y.

    Placed my order online on Saturday and they shipped it the same day! It arrived on Monday. My jellycat was packaged nicely. I'm so happy with the super quick delivery. Thank you! Will definitely order again!

It's a small specialty boutique with all kinds of cute, trendy Japanese gift items & Asian beauty products (i.e. Twee, Tirtir to name a few) including skincare, cosmetics, and trendy gift items.

Only 1 cash register so you have to wait a long time to make your purchase. Some items for sale do not have prices on them so you have to get a price check at the register. Located at Diamond Jamboree plaza off Jamboree and Milikan.

This shop is very nicely organized and aesthetic, however, the lady at the cash register who might be the owner did not greet us or anything, and seemed very bothered by us just walking in. There are some colorful crates in the back part of the store that my friend wanted to take pictures with, so I asked the cashier first if it would be okay to do so, since I had noticed that she already looked upset, and she said "yes and thank you for asking first since some people don't even ask" and I had also purchased a $40 hat prior to asking. I take a few pictures of my friend and as we're looking at them some customers walk in and are taking a look around and we scooted to the corner so they can shop. As soon as they left the cashier comes up to us with so much attitude saying "you guys need to get out when customers come in, if you guys are doing this they can't shop." when we literally were no where in the way of the customers. The last thing my friend and I wanted was to make her upset, which is why we asked permission first and purchased an item so we could stay longer in the store. But, the lack of customer service and passive aggressive tone was what makes us not want to shop here anymore. A simple "if customers come in I would appreciate if you guys step aside for them to shop" (which we did either way) in the beginning when I first asked for permission would've been nice instead of telling us to "get out" after I had already purchased something.

All of the employees here have been welcoming and helpful ever time I've come by. They're also amazing at following up when sought after items come back in stock. Hallmark stores have great cards and gift items year-round, but my favorite time to come is when their keepsake ornaments become available. Collectors know that the Dream Book is released late spring/early summer and lists of must haves are started. Christmas in July starts here!! Mid-July is the first Collectors' Event of the year with the year's Ornament Premiere. Next up is the October Ornament Debut. And the season finishes up in December when the last round of special (and sometimes limited edition) ornaments are released. The week leading up to each of these events, someone from the shop gives me a reminder call to invite me to come join the festivities. Another great example of their outstanding customer service. While collecting Keepsake Ornaments is an investment, the memories shared with family as each ornament is brought out every year is priceless. With the number of Hallmark stores dwindling, I'm extremely happy to have found Amy's Hallmark as my go to place to continue my Keepsake collection.
