I came here this past weekend to pick up a phone order. I believe the same person that helped me with the phone order and put the shoes on hold for me was the same one that ended up helping me check out at the store. I haven't been to the Main Place for so long. Last time I came here was around last Christmas, also to pick up a phone order because they had the item in my size. But it was years before that last visit. The mall has changed a lot. This Macy's looks so much nicer now. It used to be so much older. Also found several other items at great prices while I was there. Well worth my drive. read more

Macy's will always have a special place in my heart because it was actually one of my first jobs after graduating high school! I worked in the Fine Jewelry department myself when I was a young adult, so I'm very familiar with their jewelry cleaning and repair process. I recently stopped by the Fine Jewelry department at Macy's MainPlace Mall for help with a pair of small diamond hoop earrings I purchased from Macy's about six years ago. The clasp had gotten loose, and the gentleman helping me actually tried to adjust it himself first. After taking a closer look, he realized it needed a little more work and would probably have to be sent out for repair. Instead of automatically having me send them out through Macy's, he suggested I try a small jewelry repair shop inside the mall because he thought they could take care of it quicker and for less money. I'm so glad he did! They had my earrings repaired, cleaned and polished within about 15 minutes. Macy's may not have gotten the repair sale that day , but THIS is the kind of customer service I appreciate. He genuinely tried to help me find the easiest and most affordable solution instead of worrying about making a sale. Thank you to the gentleman in Fine Jewelry who helped me! Five stars for great customer service. read more

I've been shopping at this Macy's for 20-ish-plus years. I remember when it was in two parts: men's/furniture, and even a furniture outlet, where Ashley's and the bowling alley now live. Honestly, it was much better when it was split, as it carried a larger selection of merchandise. I recently realized I've hardly bought anything from this Macy's because the selection isn't that large. If I want to shop specifically at Macy's, I go to Brea Mall or South Coast Plaza. In some ways, you could call this "Macy's Light". Now the win for this location is their Backstage on the 3rd floor. I bought a belt there today for $9.99, but when they rang it up, it was $6.76 (or about), and I had a $10 reward on my Macy's card, so it was free! Gotta love that. I also recently did a return here from an online purchase gone bad (the item had a big ole' stain on it!), and the return was flawless. And maybe I just now figured this out, but they also now have furniture on the 3rd floor where children's used to be. I have no clue where the children's section is now. In a nutshell, there are good deals to be found here, and depending on which department you're in, you may or may not find help (Men's shoes is one department you may have to wait a bit, as I usually only see one person working), but it's an OK Macy's. read more

bad customer service. i did not get their name, but they were rude to my mom when my mom just asked about a coupons. they were pretty young, in shoe department. there was multiple of them. i'm not trying to be a karen but customer service should be priority. the old gentleman that was there was not taking her seriously either when she went back. i feel like we would need to set an example for younger gen? read more

I was just here and went outside to sit on the bench outside Macy's. Within minutes, a short Asian security guard with tattoos came outside, looked directly at me, walked around the corner, and then came back a few minutes later and walked by me again as if I were doing something wrong. I was literally just sitting on the bench, minding my business and looking up information about a nearby restaurant. Then I answered a phone call, and he came back out of the side door AGAIN and took his time walking by, seemingly trying to listen to my conversation--like I was casing the place or doing something suspicious. WTFFFF?!? This comment is specifically for the security guard who was being RACIST ASF. Seeing a person of color sitting calmly on a bench does NOT mean security needs to suddenly come busting out and start monitoring them. I'm sitting there in a bright orange shirt, on my phone, bothering absolutely NO ONE. Have some respect for people. I had actually been looking at dresses and was considering shopping at your store, but after being made to feel like I was suspicious simply for sitting outside, not anymore. Do better. People should be able to sit outside a store without being followed, or watched. read more

Stopped by to get some sunglasses since it on sales (online) but they do have special promotion of buy one get next one 1/2 off... which is still reasonable and I don't want to wait for 10 days for shipping plus cost of it too so..this is more convenient. Great service & very helpful guy. Easy transaction and walked out after 30mins with 2 pairs of it. read more

Very bad experience today in the shoe department at Macy's. I was trying to pay part of my purchase with a gift card and the rest with another payment method, but my items ended up getting scanned twice and it turned into a huge waste of time. It honestly seemed like some employees were not properly trained to handle something as basic as a split payment. On top of that, several employees appeared more focused on laughing and talking than helping customers professionally. To make things worse, the signature/payment devices were not working properly, and there was no manager available to help resolve the situation. Overall, a very unprofessional experience read more

I hope someone from Macy's sees this. I want to fisrt say that I am 42 years old and a recovering addict and no matter where I go I have anxiety. I have a major wedding that I'm attending in a week and I haven't shopped for a suit in over a decade. Also, I'm in sales. With that said, Isaac was absolutely amazing! I approached him and said "I need help finding a suit." I was dredding shopping because I've never been good at it but Isaac helped me find the best suit/outfit for my brother's wedding. From basic measurements to full on suit, shirt & tie and even socks, shoes and belt. Isaac walked me the whole way through in Avery warm and enthusiastic way. I cannot thank Isaac enough for unknowingly help me work through my anxiety but also look my best for my brothers BIG day. Thank you again Isaac! read more

I was looking for sandals/heels in the shoe department until I browse around and found some pairs that caught my attention. Dana, the very kind and friendly staff, came to check up on me several times and got me what I needed. I ended up buying two pairs of heels, plus a promo discount. He's made my shopping experience so well-worth it! Will come here again to buy more shoes lol read more

Came in for a return and they supposedly don't have change. She literally counted my exact change in front of me. Then she stated that she didn't have change and to wait 15 minutes. I was like fuck they didn't wait 15 minutes to take my money. Literally no organization here they are not ready to do their job. Wasting my time piss me off. What a joke....... I asked why I could not get the exact change since I literally saw my exact change in they drawer. Then the lady replies they can't give out 100 or 50s so I then asked do you take 100 and 50s then they replied yes. I'm confused you can't return 100s or 50s but you take 100s and 50s. read more

I entered Macys from the mall. I was on the second floor where there are several departments for women. I've been to second hand stores that are neater and better organized than Macy's. Most sections had a disarray of clothing. Not organized by sizes. Things were mixed together looking like a bargain basement. Clothes are on the floor. I was disgusted by the atmosphere. The lingerie area was neat and organized. But by the time I got here, I was fatigued and didn't stop to try the bras. To their credit, the restroom was clean. There are many stalls available and well maintained. The sinks were clean and soap dispenser worked. I will not return, unless to use the ladies room. . read more

I do not recommend giving any of your business to this Macy's location. This review is based on my interaction with Mary Anne and her manager at the online customer service desk. My husband gifted me a $100 Macy's gift card last Christmas and I finally had an occasion to use it online. To my surprise, when I scratched off the back of the gift card to upload the gc pin information, the 4 digit PIN number was also scratched off (disabling me from use of the card). When I presented my case to Mary Anne at the store, along with a gift card receipt with a current card value of $100, she stated she would not be able to confirm the balance without the 4-digit PIN code. She scanned the card and tried multiple pin combinations (as there were 2 digits of the pin intact). She was able to randomly enter one 4-digit combo and stated there was a $0 balance on the card (though it had never been used and the gift card tender receipt stated "this card does not expire and no fees are imposed". She handed the card to her manager and explained the situation, giving me hope that my issue would be resolved. The manager also scanned the card and attempted the PIN code that Mary Anne had informed worked, yet resulted in a $0.00 balance. She tried a few more times and then stated she would try to replace the card but the balance said $0.00 so she could not give me a replacement. I asked her how she knew the PIN number she entered correctly identified my gift card and she said that she didn't need a PIN code and that the balance would have populated. Then she said to come back with the receipt (which I reminded is probably not available since it's been 6 months past) and then they would be able to help. I went to this Macy's location specifically because this was the one my husband purchased the card from. I was able to provide the Customer Copy tender receipt to the rep and they were unable to come to a satisfactory resolution (as the line began to form, that was when I was dismissed and informed they wouldn't be able to assist without a receipt). I five this place a half star if I could, as this issue is no fault of my own and the customer service rep could have cared less. read more

In the fragrance department, Mary was the most helpful person I came across. I was looking to buy my first Marc Jacobs perfume since I've always wanted one. She was super nice and conversational, she had the best attitude and a really nice vibe to her. She helped me pick out which I liked the most, even recommended I spray some on myself just to see how it stayed. When I told her I got paid the next day she happily said she would put one on hold for me just in case. Anyways because of how she recommend spraying some on myself, I was for sure able to pick the best one for me. She was the best and thank her for my first pick. Saw her today and she had everything ready to go already. Super sweet lady and I wish her the best. Also here's me w the Adam driver cologne bc I love him read more

Sat 7/26/2025 I am so disappointment with the customer service I received from a supervisor or manager named Monse in the fine jewelry department. Her behavior during my recent visit was unacceptable. I came in to make a return and was waiting patiently for assistance. I understand that helping another customer takes time, but I observed two employees assisting one person while I was left waiting with no acknowledgment. When Iapproached to ask when I might be helped, Monse responded in a rude and dismissive tone. Rather than offering a polite update or showing basic courtesy, she seemed offended by my question and spoke to me in a condescending manner.It appeared she may have been handling a sale and possibly felt entitled to prioritize that over respectful customer interaction. However, no manager should speak to a customer this way. If this is the standard of leadership, I believe a reevaluation of management training is needed. Secret shopper evaluations and stronger oversight might help identify and correct these types of behaviors. I'm not sure who Monse reports to, but I strongly urge that someone address her customer service approach. No customer should be made to feel ignored or disrespected read more

I had the most positive service experience with MAC stylist Ms. JoAnna this past Friday, May 17th. I have shopped at many locations yet I never had a positive experience as with Ms. JoAnna. Much appreciation for valuing me as your client. Its a rarity these days and two snaps to you. read more

Absolute horrible customer service called over the phone pressed 3 to be transferred to the men's clothing section to see if the store had an item. Lady who answered had a very rude unfriendly tone when she answered she sounded under a lot of stress due to customers she had in store left me on hold and never returned my call or got back to me. For a million dollar company to understaffed during the holidays it is quite embarrassing for customer service to handle customers in this manner. Call was around 2:30. read more

Extreme perfumed odor throughout this store. Sickenly cheap smell. What are they trying to cover up?

We shopped at Macy's in the Main Place Mall in Santa Ana. Diana was looking in the men's department for a light jacket for me. She asked the cashier where the London Fog Jackets were located. The answer was unsatisfactory. The department was disorganized, so we left. Then we went to the women's department. Diana was looking for a sweater but the quality of the material was not to her standards, so we left. Sadly we left the store without a purchase. I think, that is why large department stores are slowly going out of business. Then we walked outside and drove off to find my next review. Robert H. read more

Your typical Macy's: clean store, organized, good customer service, great variety of beauty brands and perfumes, good fashion brands, nice sales going on, has a home section as well. This location feels bigger than the Macy's Cerritos and their walking pathway is wider and more comfortable (specially their beauty section) read more

Macy's sold us a Cal King mattress by "Hotel Collection * The Vitagenic Mattress by aireloom" in November 2015 and didn't stand behind us when we asked for a partial refund or new mattress. We worked with Marjan Samakar, the sales woman, and of course she no longer works for Macys. We wanted a very firm mattress and one that would not end up with a huge hump in the middle like so many past mattresses have. The mattress was very expensive, $9,000, we paid the sales price of $5,900 for the California King. We were up in the air on the sale, due to the price, but Marjan assured us that if we ever, ever, ever had any problems with the mattress she would personally handle the problem for us (she worked there for over 25 years) and gave us her business card (Silver Million Dollar Club) to seal the deal. She also claimed that her Manager would always take care of us if there should be a problem. Three years later the mattress was failing badly. Both sides were sunken where we each slept and there was a big hump in the middle, so high that we couldn't cuddle and sleep together. I called Marjan and left her messages for help and she never called back. I ultimately found out that she no longer worked there. My husband got cancer and I wasn't able to follow up on my call. He has recovered, but it took time. I've called Macys for help on the mattress many times over the past 3 years for help, but to no avail. The mattress was ridiculously expensive and our anger became daily. We paid good money, and a lot of it, and this is what we got! From Macys, a "big brand" good rep company we thought. Finally after two days of going through their automated telephone service, I got a Supervisor on the phone and after a day or two of haggling, they sent out a mattress technician on April 7, 2021. He took pictures of the mattress with the "hump", the indentation measured 1 1/4" but told us the indentations on each side of the "hump" had to be 1 1/2" lower than the height of the hump for them to do anything! How crazy is that? So Macys basically sold us 2-twin bed mattresses stuck together with a "hump", and they have refused to do anything about it for 5 years, after many, many complaints, and calls for help by us. We even offered to pay half the cost of a replacement mattress, but they said no! Bad, bad, bad vibes from them! This should be a warning to anyone thinking about buying a mattress from Macys! Do not be fooled! read more

Went there to pick up an order as a favor for my mom, lady asked if we had the same last name (to check my ID for pickup) not only do we have the same name but also the same address. My mom had sent me the email with the pickup barcode and everything and she told me she couldn't process it that I had to be on the pickup guest list and that my mom could try adding me online, well she should've known that at Macy's after you place an order you only have 15-30 mins to make any changes, obviously it's past that timeframe if It's already available for picking. But she didn't know or failed to mentioned that, convenient for her but not for me. I totally understand not allowing me to do it for security purposes HOWEVER, I contacted customer service myself through the online chat and have a screen shot (see attachments) of them BLATANTLY STATING that if you want to designate a person to pick up your items for you all they need is a copy of the order information (which my mom had already emailed me) I go back and get a new cashier (thank God) and she takes my ID and tells me she'll do it BuT OnLy BeCAuSe we have the same last name and she's only going to do it this one time. I show her the screenshot of my conversation with customer service and point out that there are no explicit restrictions to who can pick up and she continues to talk over me. I just cut my losses -- at this point I'm just going to be happy they're letting me pick it up. ALL OF THIS FOR A SHIRT THAT MY MOM PAID $7.13 FOR. I am also writing a second half to this review on behalf of my mom who doesn't know how to use technology (i.e., see above, adding me to her pickup list). My mom went to make a payment in store with cash, had her ID, social and everything and they told her they couldn't process a payment without the card or bill. She thinks it's interesting how she can run all around Macy's and rack up her bill with nothing but her ID, Social, and the last 4 digits of the card but God forbid when it comes to making a payment they can't look up that info. read more

Good quality clothing affordable prices easy way to pay and good sales every month good experience

This Macy's was awful for order pick up! I parked in the designated space as requested on my ready for pick up email. After calling and speaking with an associate for curbside pickup, I waited in my car for 15 minutes (before the Christmas rush). Nobody came out, so I decided to walk in. To my surprise, the order pickup counter is right when you walk in the door. Expecting a long line for delay, I was surprised to find no line and 4 employees standing behind the counter. I informed them that I was waiting in curbside and then they went to get the order. Moral of the story, skip the curbside pickup it takes longer than just going in the store. read more

I honestly do not write reviews too often but I wanted to give compliments to Jose, the Manager at the watches, for his great customer service.

I will definitely be buying more watches from this location! read more

Just popped in to get some new jean shorts for the season. Although they are expensive this is usually the best place to get quality jeans. I really wish they had directories. It was very hard to find where to go and then couldn't find anyone to help us! But eventually made it. Had some good options and even cuter fitting rooms. Got what we needed and checked out in a flash. I think they even had a sale going on of buy one get one 50% off so that was nice! When it comes to jeans or shoes or fancy wear this is the place. When I just need a summer dress or shirt, I'll stick to forever 21. read more

I really hate to say it but I really feel like feel like the color of my skin, dreadlocks and clothing played a huge part in my experience today. I am very disappointed, humiliated annoyed with how I was treated at Macy's today. To summarize, I basically purchased a pair of shoes online to be shipped to the store for free. I did not pick up my order From the store within the allotted time frame so my order was canceled. This was OK by me because I had changed my mind about the shoes anyway. So I arrived at the store a couple of weeks later to get my refund since I never picked up the item. The ladies at the customer service desk basically tried to accuse me of previously picking up the item because they could not find it in their system. I repeatedly told them that I had not been inside of the store and that there was no way I could have picked up the item or received a refund for it. Then they proceeded to change their statement and instead of saying I picked up the item they stated that they refunded my American Express card Which I don't understand because I don't own an American Express card And my original payment method was a Macys gift card. So I literally show them all of my receipts & emails showing the transactions but that still wasn't sufficient. . They made me feel as though I was trying to get over on them or that I was lying. So after standing there for about 20 minutes or so I finally asked if the associate if she could get her supervisor to assist. She ignored me and continued to try to figure out where my item was for another 10 minutes and then finally called a supervisor. This supervisor also could not find it and was lacking experience and knowledge and again tried to insinuate that I already picked up the shoes. Finally after over 30 minutes another supervisor or manager was called who came logged into the computer and within 3 minutes was able to find my order and see that it had never been returned or picked up and issued me a refund quickly. I appreciate that supervisor however no one ever apologized to me. The customer service in this in this particular Macy's sucks. read more

Don't come here if you want to get your watch/band resized. They have no idea what they are talking about and just turn you away because they don't know how to do it. Came in because I got a Seiko watch as a gift. I was told I can go to any Macy's watch department and they will resize it as long as I had a proof of purchase. First off, the dude asked with hostility "do you have a receipt?". I said "of course, you need to see it?" He said, "no it's ok, how can I help you?" I asked to get resize because I like my watches to be more fitted. He looked at it, within 3 seconds, he said that he wouldn't recommend it because it'll be too tight. I told him I hate how loose it is. He said there's nothin I can do and you will feel uncomfortable. Then some lady Rowena came by and said "these bands are hard to resize and I wouldn't recommend resizing it." Ok lady, that's great, but I want what I want. They then turned away and didn't acknowledge me after because they thought I agreed with them. Fine, if they don't want to resize it, I'll go to a REAL watch maker who will do what I ask. I ended up going to a small establish business that fix watches and was gladly to resize it and now it fits perfect. Macy's hires anyone. Even at a watch department where you're spending easily $100+ on a watch. The least they can do is hire someone who knows what they are talking about. Great deals on watches, horrible customer service at this location. read more

Gift Card Users Beware Recently, I have had very negative experiences with Macy's and their lack of customer service. I used a Macy's gift card on 2/6/24 to complete an online purchase. For some unknown reason, their computer software processed the gift card, gave a system error message, and cancelled the order. Unfortunately, the amount used on the gift card was NOT refunded when the system cancelled the order. I have talked to over 10 customer service representatives who have all assued me "not to worry" "everything is handled" and "you will receive a new gift card". After 20 days, the new gift card has not been received. Three people that I have spoken to have promised to call me back to ensure that all if good; however, no one has called back and the amount has yet to be refuned. I have been told to expect a refund or new gift card within 24-28 hours, then I was told 7-10 days, then I was told up to 30 days, and finally today I was told up to 60 days. I am not convinced, based on these varying messages, that I will ever receive the refund/gift card that is owed to me. So this review is to alert gift card users to possible difficulties. read more
