As you walk through certain parts of the mall--especially around the food court and restrooms--it gives off a bit of a creepy, old-school scary movie vibe. There are still a few things to do, though. There's an arcade, a library, a bounce house for kids, and a handful of stores. Just don't expect the variety or energy of a larger mall. If you work nearby, like at Safeway or one of the surrounding businesses, it's actually a nice place to spend your lunch break and get some steps in while staying indoors.

Easy, free parking. Accessible by train and ferry, besides car. Many different delicious food choices from delis to Greek to fancier fare, and The Rustic Bakery, which is where we ate. There is ample outdoor dining in sun and shade, besides indoor dining. Since we arrived at different times, everyone enjoyed browsing through the bookstore, and window shopping around the center. The center is very kid and dog friendly and there are lots of areas and activities for kids to explore and enjoy. It is also clean. The reason for one star off: there is a vibe that all of us felt, and others have said the same thing about the shopkeepers and some staff. I was wearing a top from one of the stores and jeans from another shop there. I popped into each store and was ignored by everyone in the first place and watched as if I might shoplift in the other store. I had only my phone in my pocket and no bag at all. It was uncomfortable-making and I left both stores, which were understandably empty. The place is delightful as a location for walking around with kids and dogs. Lots of food options. But the stores are not as friendly as other locations of the same brands.

I already had waited a decent amount of time before the buck was passed, but then it took additional time to process the Anniversary discounts I had received. I was patient, but I doubt others shopping cosmetics would have been as gracious. In any case, I'm just influencer level, but I was gifted lots of nice discounts and samples; including $10 for the ZBar and $15 towards cosmetics. I am happy I found Osea algae body butter special 2 pack deal, super emollient and perfect for summer and winter skincare. Happy anniversary Nordy's.

I continue to enjoy the consistent top tier customer service, wonderfully curated options in store, on site tailoring, and their generous return policy. I used to have a Nordstrom personal shopper. Then I was a member of The Trunk. Now I am considering the option to have Nordstrom brought to my home so I can try and buy things without going to the physical location. Stonestown and downtown SF used to be my primary stores. Now it's Corte Madera. This store is so well stocked, I almost never hear "I can order it online". I enjoy the instant gratification of taking my purchases home with me on the same day. The majority of my wardrobe was purchased at Nordstrom. I am a loyalist.

There was a whole room full of tops, and two racks of jeans. There were even more random sale items throughout the store, not in the sale section. I was quite surprised. I waited in line twice, once to return, and once to buy my jeans. Neither wait was long at all - just one person ahead of me, quite quick.

Considering how quiet and empty the store has been lately (at least during weekdays when I've gone), management should consider the types of folks they are hiring, and also not make the entire main floor look like bland denim central. The giant PILCRO sign and just the overwhelm of all the denim, and overpriced products (for cheap polyester quality) and lack of tester-opportunities of the perfumes (no perfume tester papers even to spray the perfume on--but instead MINI SAMPLE PERFUMES FOR PURCHASE, WTF) it's like this store is wanting to go out of business.
