URBAN OUTFITTERS FOR OLDER PEOPLE (3 stars)…read more Growing up I categorized this as an old people store. Well, I grew up and now I'm that old person. The clothes aren't of interest but why did I see a ton of younger people hitting g up the sales rack looking for items that would fit a thrifty outfit. My interest were some of their cute fun theme kitchen glassware. Yes, that stuff interest me these days. Who have I become?! Don't pass on this store... there are random interesting things to buy. Kind of reminds me of a mature urban outfitters but for the older generation. Until the next review....

I hadn't had luck trying to find something he liked not to mention customer service at multiple stores not being helpful (a huge bummer and makes me want to cut shopping short). I just wanted someone to listen to him with what he was looking for. I was recommended Bloomingdale's by a friend and gave it a shot. Once we got there and found the men's shoe section we immediately got offered help by a worker named Isaiah. Oh my goodness, a perfect shopping experience! He was so kind and sweet, helpful and listened. He made the experience feel personal and made us feel comfortable to where we didn't feel like just a customer. The section was very clean and organized making it easy to look around. Time flew by so quick! My son found a pair he absolutely loved that felt good and went with his style perfectly. Safe to say we will be back and the drive from Temecula was worth it. Thank you so much Isaiah!

A complete lack of customer service…read more I came in to add to my summer wardrobe and pick up a some pants. I was not greeted during my entire visit and Bloomingdale's staff walked past me as if I wasn't there. On my one I found some knit casual jackets and linen shirts from Flaherty; which were nice. Unfortunately they were hung up on thin plastic hangers which marred the shoulders with the stretch-bump. Crossed into an area with Buck Mason clothing, and was finally greeted. 30 minutes after arriving. I gave the employee some shit about not coming over to greet me, like he was trapped in the section. Miles revealed to me that he worked for Buck Mason rather than Bloomingdale's. He then showed me several quality pieces perfect for summer. He introduced me to the brand; which will become a staple for me.

I'm terrible with names, and then of course I lost the note! Thankfully, I finally found it because these ladies absolutely deserve the recognition. A huge shoutout to Irene, Ashley, and Yvette. They provide some of the best customer service I've experienced in retail. They are friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely know how to make your shopping experience enjoyable. Let's be honest--Fabletics isn't the cheapest brand out there, but it's hands down my favorite when it comes to quality, comfort, and fit. I've been wearing Fabletics since the brand first launched years ago, and I love that I can still walk into a store, try things on, and get personalized help from such an incredible team. Shopping online can sometimes feel overwhelming when you're trying to put outfits together, but Irene, Ashley, and Yvette make the process so easy. They always have great recommendations and truly go above and beyond to help you find pieces you'll love. This is by far my favorite Fabletics location because every time I visit, the staff is consistently welcoming and helpful. I just wanted to make sure these ladies know how much I appreciate the wonderful experience they create every time I walk through the door. Customer service like this is hard to find, and they deserve all the recognition!

She's so positive and friendly, it makes my shopping experience so much more enjoyable. The dressing rooms are large and comfortable, it's really easy to try things on. They have a great selection, but if they don't it's so easy to order online. The VIP subscription is totally worth it considering the deals on the clothes and you can skip the monthly charge anytime. Something weird happened with my online order, and Yvette, Ashley, and Jameli (I hope that's how it's spelled!) got it figured out. It's great to see communication between coworkers that gets the job done. Thanks so much!!

Really large selection at this combo TJ Maxx/HomeGoods. Probably the largest in San Diego, and…read moredefinitely always a long checkout line. I'm usually here looking for housewares like drinking glasses, ramekins, etc. They have a really large selection, but you still have to go to multiple locations if you're looking for something specific. The other half of the store is the clothing, beauty, etc, and it's a larger than normal selection versus a regular store. Since this is such a popular store, parking can be really difficult. Parking on the East side around the corner is the easiest.

This has nothing to do with the service or the selection. However I was threatened as a 8 month…read moreobviously pregnant woman here. There was an overflowing cart with no one standing beside it, filled with shoes. I took a pair of shoes off the top of the cart& an irate 300+ lb man and a psychotic sounding (mayb natural or not) woman came after me. The man lounged in the air towards me and I felt unsafe. I immediately reported to the manager and the security there but it seemed like the scary couple was still in the store. It now looked like she was on some kind of Facebook or insta live, I now think I should've called the police for not only my safety but others because this was unacceptable especially in a space just shopping. If anyone goes here please beware of a couple with the overflowing cart who are on live and this man.

Think of it as a fun scavenger hunt where you might leave with some cute finds or appreciate the amount of patience you have. Pros: *Noticed a great selection of comfy, casual everyday clothes *Cute summer dresses and adorable jelly sandals that I was tempted to buy. I used to wear these as a kid. They are back in style! *Noticed a lot of sales and I'm sure you get better discounts as a rewards member (which I'm not). *Clearance prices can be fantastic if you're willing to dig, which I did not since I was pressed for time. *Other than the back clearance sections, the store looked clean, well-kept and I saw employees constantly folding and organizing. *Fitting rooms available if only I wasn't lazy trying on clothes *Did not notice any BO upon entering as others mentioned. Maybe they got the issue under control? *Wasn't crowded on a weekday afternoon *Convenient location next to Trader Joe's, Marshalls, and across from Mission Valley Mall. *Plenty of parking during slower times. *Good value for basics, denim, and family shopping. Cons: *The clearance section requires patience, determination, and possibly a snack break. It was probably the most disorganized part of the store since customers were wrestling through the clothes. I don't have much patience to dig through it so it was a bit overwhelming. *Sizing can be inconsistent with some extra smalls and smalls fit more like mediums or larges. *Bummer couldn't find the cargo pants I wanted. *Nothing really screamed "you have to buy me" besides the jelly sandals. *Parking can be competitive on busy days and weekends. All in all, Old Navy will test your patience. Just make sure to plan on having ample time to do your shopping. This last visit was meh so 3 stars it is!

When she eventually came out, she was constantly on her phone and didn't make much effort to engage with me or provide assistance. When I asked for help, rather than asking what size I normally wear or taking the time to understand what I was looking for, she simply grabbed multiple sizes. The experience felt more like I was shopping on my own than being assisted by a sales stylist. I gave the store another chance and came back a second time. Unfortunately, the experience was exactly the same. The same sales associate was in the back, came out, gave a quick hello, and immediately went back to being on her phone. There was very little effort to engage with customers or create a welcoming shopping experience. I was also disappointed with the quality of the clothing. For the prices being charged, I expected much better quality. Some of the threads were already coming loose, and the overall construction did not feel worth the price. For the price point and quality, I honestly feel you can find better options elsewhere. I don't even typically shop at SHEIN, but the quality-to-price ratio here was disappointing enough that I would rather spend my money elsewhere. Overall, the combination of poor customer service, lack of attention from the sales associate, and overpriced clothing that feels cheaply made made this a very disappointing shopping experience. I expected a much higher level of service and quality for the prices Bobby Rocco charges.

I've always been a fan of the brands under the URBN umbrella (Urban Outfitters, Anthropologie, and…read moreFree People). Compared to fast-fashion retailers, they tend to have better sourcing practices and higher-quality pieces. When I first moved to California, I wasn't used to seeing these brands everywhere like I did with East Coast retailers, but over time, they've become some of my go-to shops for their trendy yet well-made clothing. During the holiday season, Urban Outfitters was significantly busier than Anthropologie and Free People, and unfortunately, the customer service took a hit because of it. While both of those stores consistently provide impeccable service, UO felt a bit more chaotic in comparison. I assume this has to do with the younger demographic they cater to, which also reflects in their staff, most of whom seem to be college-aged. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, but it does make a noticeable difference. Anthropologie and Free People employees tend to be more seasoned, more engaged, and overall just more attentive. That said, now that the holiday rush is over, I've noticed a big improvement. The sales section and fitting rooms, which used to be a mess, are now much more organized with staff actively maintaining them. The checkout line moves more smoothly, and the overall atmosphere feels less overwhelming. I didn't feel the need to leave a review before because, honestly, most retail stores deal with the same post-holiday struggles, but I have to give credit where it's due, UO has stepped up. Unlike some other fast-fashion chains in the mall like Zara and H&M, which still seem disorganized on the weekends, UO has clearly put in the effort to improve. I think a big part of this is that the management seems to be focused on staff development rather than just filling shifts. The familiar faces I now recognize are much more attentive and confident in their roles, and you can tell they're balancing their responsibilities better. As for selection of their clothes and other products, UO carries a good mix of trendy pieces, vintage-inspired finds, and some quirky household knick-knacks. While their inventory can be a hit or miss depending on the season, I appreciate that they stock more unique styles compared to basic fast-fashion retailers like H&M. Their home and accessories section is also fun to browse and something I'd probably buy instead over the home-products that I see in Anthropologie. Value-wise, UO sits in that mid-tier range. Not quite designer like Anthro and Free People, but definitely pricier than fast fashion brands like I mentioned earlier. Some pieces are worth it, especially when they're made with better materials, but others can feel overpriced for what they are like the Graphic Tees for example. That being said, their sale section is where you can find some solid deals if you're patient and go through it if you have the time. Unlike other retailers that just throw clearance items into a messy pile, UO's sale section is now much easier to navigate, which makes a huge difference when it comes to the overall shopping experience. Overall, if you're shopping at UO in Fashion Valley, expect a much better experience outside of the holiday season. The store is noticeably more organized, the service has improved, and the shopping experience feels much more enjoyable. If they can keep this level of consistency year-round, they'd easily earn a five-star rating from me just like Anthropologie and Free People.

This is one of the worst Urban locations in San Diego. The employees there are inexperienced and…read morerude. They're constantly just standing around at the register chatting, acting like they'd rather be anywhere else. The store is NEVER picked up, clothes all over the floor and dressing room, trash scattered around, and discarded hangers. You'd think for the high prices, they'd bother to make the store look better. The dressing rooms have always been a headache as well. I've had staff literally rip open the curtain to the room I was in and only say "oops" and walk off. The clothes are not nearly worth their price tag at all. Nordstrom has better quality than this place. Skip this UO location and go to literally anywhere else.
