    I have to say, I like this shopping town square. It offers plenty of parking spaces and some quality eateries to dine at, including Bushfire Grill, a Luna Grill, and Project Pie just to mention a few. It does not offer a movie theater, but it does offer a Vons, Stein Mart, Michael's and a Petco for all you pet enthusiast. For the neighborhood peeps that like to stay in shape, the town square has a 24 Hour Fitness center: a nice one too given I took a tour. They offer traditional banks and a San Diego Credit Union which made me happy given I belong to a credit union. If you need a European Wax, your nails done, or a new hairstyle, you can check the square out with their business offering such services. There's a Pacific Dental and Modern Eye Optometry as well. It's also a good center to come for a walk, especially after a good meal, given it perimeter is quite distant. The land escaping is well kept and the town square is kept well cleaned.

    So nice they have clean air vehicle parking. Too bad customers don't respect it.

    I wrote this back in November 2014, but never showed up. Guess I didn't have an address so Yelp HQ didn't believe it existed. Oh well.... After years of legal battles, traffic studies and all sorts of other delays, this mall has finally opened! They had their grand opening this past Friday 11/7/14. Nothing extravagant since some stores haven't opened yet. The opening was originally slated for over 7 years ago. It was a big selling point for the new houses that were being built in the La Costa Oaks community. Grocery store, movie theatre and other retail and dining places right across the street. Year after year went by and finally, here it is. It's about time! What actually made it in are Vons, Stein Mart, 24 Hour Fitness as some of the larger retail. A couple banks, the Habit Burger, Starbucks and a dry cleaner. Overall pretty good selection of stores and fairly easy access in and out. Stay tuned for individual reviews! Keep on Yelping! So since then, more and more has opened. It's been about 7 months and they're still building out the gas station and looking for retails/ vendors to be housed in some of the current empty spaces. Hopefully soon, this mall will be up and running at full capacity. Bushfire Grill, Jambaa, Project Pie, Noodles and Company, Chipotle, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citibank, SDCCU, Baked Bear, Suzie Q and the list goes on... They've all opened since the opening day back in November. The mall is slowly but surely shaping up to what it was billed to almost 9 years ago when we moved in across the street.

    Never will I ever go to any of the shops and places here again. The worst design for parking and entering and leaving.

    Small shopping center next to the flower field, I mean directly next to it!…read more Found a cute purse at Coach that wasn't sold online anymore n was sold out everywhere else! Workers were very attentive and helpful. Actually had to go back and buy it bc I couldn't stop thinking about it lol Went to the toy store and found rare stuff my son was hunting for so that was a treat. The staff there were also very helpful and gave my son few free sleeves for his one piece cards. The place is very small, very clean and all the stores were organized. It wasn't very packed on a Saturday, it didn't feel that way but the parking was a hot mess. Lol maybe bc they share parking with the flower field. My favorite is the view of the flower field next door. Really is heaven on earth when you see such colors surrounding you.

    Very strange that majority of the sales being advertised at the outlet stores here are "Buy 1 Get 1…read more50% off".. which to me, isn't much of a deal. Where's the 60, 70% off? Lol. I guess not too common nowadays. These outlets in general is pretty standard with pretty empty crowds so it's not hard to find a parking spot. The vibes here feel like more of a casual mall with the food and iced tea shops having more people in line for than any of the retail stores. However.. I was able to find a great deal at one of the stores! Still worth walking around to look and browse through some stores. Children activities.. they have a fun life-sized checkers board to play with and even a train ride.

There are a great mix of businesses/services for whatever your need is...banks, cleaners, coffee shops, a variety of fitness/wellness places, all types of food to eat, grocery store to buy food, entertainment, library, post office, etc. It's awesome that they collaborate with each other for community events. I got to witness this collaboration in action at this year's Health & Wellness Expo. Nice opportunity to interact with staff!! All very friendly :-)

Nice selection of restaurants including Tin Leaf, Tuscany, Beach Plum Kitchen, Allen's NY Pizza, and La Costa Roasting Co. to name a few. It also has great entertainment like Cineopolis, the upscale movie theater. It does have all the retail services that local residents need, like a Vons for those who need to do grocery shopping, UPS for mail and printing services, nail salon, hair cutting, etc. And the newly renovated Carlsbad Library is just across the parking lot, so you can take advantage of all the free services there. On my last visit, I noticed a fairly new set of electric charging stations for electric cars-- nice that green-friendly shoppers can be supported.
