I wasn't sure what to expect, since I haven't had reason to go into the shop before, but it was great. Charlie was able to work with my budget, give great suggestions, and the selection was incredible. Prices seemed comparable to the big box stores or online, and its great to support a neighbor and local business. The store has toys for all ages, and I can't wait to check it out as my friend's baby gets older! Tips: There's free parking in the lots (check the signs to make sure you're not in a reserved spot), and they will wrap gifts for you!

I usually prefer TJ Maxx over Marshalls, so it pains me a little to say this, but the TJ Maxx in…read morethe Pentagon City area has been pretty underwhelming compared to the nearby Marshalls. Since I now work in Arlington, I visit both stores often, hoping to score the kinds of finds TJ Maxx is usually known for. Unfortunately, I haven't had much luck at this location. I still pop in from time to time out of habit and optimism, but more often than not, I leave empty-handed. Selection & Finds: The selection here feels hit or miss, leaning more toward miss lately. There's a sign for a "luxury" section, which initially caught my attention, but the items there tend to lack the quality you'd expect from something labeled luxury. It feels more like a concept than a well-executed section, which is disappointing when you're hoping to discover standout pieces. Store Experience: One of the biggest challenges with this location is how messy it can be. Racks often feel overcrowded, and items are frequently out of place, which makes browsing feel more like a chore than a fun treasure hunt. Compared to the Marshalls nearby, this store feels noticeably less organized and harder to shop. Service: The associates have been fine overall, but the general store upkeep makes the experience feel a bit rushed and less enjoyable than it should be. Pricing: The prices here can be decent, and I know TJ Maxx is known for good deals, but lately I've noticed more items that feel overpriced for what they are. Sometimes the discounts don't feel as significant as expected, especially when the quality doesn't quite match the price point. It makes it a little harder to justify purchases, especially when I'm not finding standout items to begin with. Overall, I still love TJ Maxx as a brand, but this particular location hasn't lived up to the standard I'm used to. If you're shopping in the Pentagon City area, you may have better luck at the nearby Marshalls.

Best believe when I tell you how I was both excited and nervous at the same time. My girlfriend has…read morebeen telling me about the classes that she takes, and she decided to book me one to join her. I have never cooked outside of my home and only for a handful of people, so this was an experience! We showed up around the start time, put on our aprons, and prepared to get to work. It was only four of us in the class, all working at one table... I can't decide whether I'm happy it was a more intimate experience or if I would have preferred more participants so I have less attention to myself since it was my first time... Either way it was an absolute blast. The theme of this class was Spanish date night, so we made this chickpea asparagus dish, cheese-stuffed piquillos, Serrano ham- wrapped cod, and almond empanadas. The instruction was clear, tips were given throughout, and overall I found it to be a very approachable experience. Huge shoutout to Penny for doing a fantastic job. Oh, did I mention I used some new kitchen tools and quite frankly had to buy them in the store immediately after?? So fun.

The melon wrapped in Proccuito (sp?) was delicious. Would have never put those flavors together. The clam pasta with cream/white wine sauce was also yummy. Downside the raspberry and fig galette was a little too sweet for me, but I learned how to make pie crust work. Also stand up eating at the end was not as fun as a sit down meal would have been l. I am actually surprised they don't have a sit down dining table set with all their extras in the center of the store, it would be great advertising! Overall, 4.5 stars.
