***Overall 3.75***…read more As far as malls go, this mall in Salinas is up my alley because it's not too big (like the one in Santa Clara!), not too small or empty (like the one in Capitola and many seaside ones), and not super riddled with high end stores where I end up window-shopping and don't actually buy anything. Northridge Mall has the stores I like and also has eateries too. There is plenty of parking, cute holiday decor, and a HUUUGE entertainment area (arcade, bowling), including the largest room with claw machines I had ever seen in my life! This is sadly the era of "shopping mall deaths" with everyone veering towards online shopping, so I am glad to see Northridge Mall populated with stores and doing well. I hope it sticks around.

It's a mall and I'm an old man now. Back in the 70's this mall was great but then I was in high…read moreschool. It's changed but still the same. It was there 50th anniversary and a lot of fun things to do. It was pretty packed. A lot of families and hundreds of young dude's checking out the young ladies and vice versa...normal. It was clean and mall security was present. It's not that I'm ever going to just hang out there and they really don't have anything there I couldn't get elsewhere so I just don't feel the need to go there. My wife and I had a free funny character drawing done. It was part of their 50th anniversary celebration. Sweet! Last words...mall memories.

Actually the food is exceptional, but the two TV's blaring, the fan blowing your napkins everywhere, noisy happy people, and very high chairs which are uncomfortable to sit on makes it less than desirable. Not a relaxing atmosphere, perhaps a to-go order is best! The food is great, try the pesto-mayo, popular place and sadly understaffed.

As soon as we walked in, one of the staff members gave us a long, uncomfortable stare that she didn't break even though there were other shoppers in the store as well. She approached us shortly after and asked if we needed help, which we politely declined. However, instead of moving on, she continued to watch us closely the entire time, making us feel singled out and unwelcome. We had no intention of doing anything wrong--we simply came in to browse and support a local business. It's sad and frustrating to be treated in a way that made us feel judged and uncomfortable. This is not the experience we expected or deserved.... Definitely NOT coming back .
