Shopping for this and that today. Target has a good selection of most items from lotions and soap, to foods, small appliances, home deocorations, fashion and more. The store appears to be clean and organized, the sales staff are friendly, cashiers are efficient. In most cases if I can not find a product at Walmart, Target will have it (ie. DVD's) new releases. Overall this is a nice store to shop for your everyday needs. read more

I like this target because it is very organized, clean and they stock their shelves. I never have problems finding parking and their employees are really helpful. Compared to the plaza Bonita target that is absolutely awful, this place is the best. Whomever the manager is should be commended because they hire good staff and they really stress customer service. Keep up the good work. read more

This is a decent Target. I came by here to see if they had any certificate paper because I've been making certificates for my students for the end of the school year. I was a little disappointed that they only carried one kind. (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/G-36M5CtMk7Gg8MQjHk6vA?userid=WG3w_73scm_JUWJ_3Lgn0Q#xfBfTwMGlfeYPbnftRlM2A) I had no choice but to go with what they had and deal with it. I guess I should of been happy that they even had it. The service was good and they had plenty of registers open for a Sunday afternoon. Good idea. read more

Seriously? It's target. I'm pretty much a target fanatic. Wal Mart who? I love everything about this store. I am lucky I guess to always get friendly cashiers. The managers have worked with me If I have coupons and returns are easy (if I ever have any). They DO price match which is always nice. I find myself coming way too often. I only wish they had a Starbucks, but it's just across the parking lot :) I am a girl, and as such I like to look at the beauty section quite often. I do wish they stocked up a little more, usually when I look for particular items(that are popular in the makeup world), they are sold out :/ But, nonetheless, my experiences here are always pretty good. read more

This is the worst Target. Horrible customer service. Rarely open a register. Should be zero stars! And when they do they don't take the next person they take the person at the back of the line. They seem annoyed when you ask for help. Even trying to do in store pick up is a hassle. NEVER going back! #bringbackkmart read more

This store is awesome... I read the negative reviews and those people that posted them are crazy ( they're probably Wal Mart employees trying to give Target a bad name ). I'm gonna make this easy. Positives: 1. Yes during covid the lines are long... Actually they're 6x longer than normal... Why.. cuz everyone maintains a 6 foot distance while in however the line goes just as fast as normal.. during covid when the line is backed up to the liquor section it takes me about 10 minutes from the time I get in line to the time I get to a check stand. 2. This place is clean and bright and just an overall happy looking place.. like you want to stay in the store and browse... It's just inviting. 3. No shit..no joke.. all the carts work perfectly.. none of those bumpy wheels or carts that lead towards the left or right.. the carts are clean and just operate very smooth. 4. Compared to Walmart.. going to Target is just a more stress free shopping experience. Just walk in and give it a try you'll be happy you migrated from Walmart. 5. They advertise to everyone.. in the store you'll notice that they advertise towards ( I'm skinny ) big people, handicapped kids, not the prettiest people... They don't follow typical big business advertising towards the prettiest people. 6. Still cheap to shop at and EXPONENTIALLY higher quality than walmart. read more

Target employees should be more kind, smile, say hello, thank you. Just be more courteous over all and lately, at the Lemon Grove Target, we aren't getting that. We are getting individuals who seem to have a chip on their shoulder, unhappy about their jobs, and just plain rude. Today the young lady that brought my things out to my car should've just thrown the things in my car. She was just rude. Not acceptable. I love Target, but the individuals that are working the store pick up, as well as the car pick up need to have better attitudes. We are all struggling during this pandemic and a smiling face can work wonders and may brighten someone's day. Do better Target employees! read more

Target - 2 Cube Organizer - Department Stores Near Me - San Diego, California

The reason why I chose the score of 10 of 5 is directly due to the great and professional customer service I received from your College Grove store in San Diego. I would like to acknowledge Elena for her kindness and patience in helping with my transaction. Also Angel for taking the time out and helping me understanding about the hair products available for hair dye. They exceeded my expectations and the deserve a raise. Give them a bonus, they earned it. Your fellow Target shopper, Paul Nguyen read more

Target has always been one of my favorite stores to shop, but this particular review is for an employee at the Lemon Grove location in San Diego! The person who rang up our items was amazing! Garrett was personable and professional! My Red Card wasn't working (because it was expired, doh!) and he asked if I'd like to have someone from guest services help me. I passed on his offer to help, but it was really nice of him to offer. He then asked if i knew about the discount for college students (I didn't!). He showed the QR code to get set up, which was super helpful! We were lucky enough to have two interactions with Garrett, as we had to go there again and he was our cashier! YAY - for us! Target - good job hiring Garrett! You're lucky to have him representing your brand! read more

I came here specifically for 2 things and they didn't have either... then I thought I could buy panties 5 for $20 and the drawers were practically empty. It was midday on a Wednesday how is nothing stocked up. read more

I love coming to this target. I'm a student at SDSU and I will always prefer coming to this location over the Mission Valley one. Some things I enjoy about this location is that the parking lot is much more spacious and easy to drive and maneuver through. There isn't a second story; there's one large floor. The alcohol section has great variety (similar to a target from back home). It is a much cleaner, neater, and friendlier environment. I will sometimes do their pick up in store option as I'm shopping in the store and they are incredibly punctual and on top of things when it comes to grabbing the materials. I've never had an experience where I had to wait the full 2 hours for my product to be ready-- it's usually about 20-30 minutes. The options at this target location are ample and similar to the online store in which you have more options to look at and choose from. My experience at this target has always been great and I look forward to more shops here! read more

The remodel does not make shopping at this Target location a better experience. Poor customer service; long lines due to only 2 registers open on a Sunday morning; "sale" tags that reflect a higher price than the original price (check the cereal aisle); messy aisles in general. If you want a better experience, drive the short distance to Grossmont. read more

This lemon grove location is the closest to my house, it is always really organized and I always have a pleasant time shopping there. Today was my first time shopping online and selecting pick up at store. The process was so easy and they even had a promotion if you spent $100 you get a $10 gift card (which I think is still valid until the 28th) they sent me a fast response email that my order had been picked and ready for pick up I went on my lunch break arrived at the location, no line and I was taken care of right away. I was in and out of the store within minutes. The lady who helped me was really nice and professional. read more

Be aware that management allows solicitation on store property. Sometimes there are underage unsupervised children selling candy bars practically in the doorway, and sometimes there are other..."venders" who get aggressive when you try to go around them and don't buy their stuff. This is the only store at this location that allows solicitation on store property. Kohl's, Sam's Club, even the Walmart at this location does not allow solicitors on their store property. If you don't mind being solicited on your way out of the store it's not a bad place to shop. I no longer go to this Target. read more

I tried to like this Target because I LOVE TARGET. But this one is so disorganized and confusing. The layout was put together by a kindergarten class. I get the idea to re-invent yourself. But you're TARGET. That's why people love you. Don't try to be something your not It is clean and the people are nice but unless you want to spend hours aimlessly wandering don't go here. read more

Like a week ago I went to return a coffee table and carpet. Tracy at Guest Service was amazing!! So patient and helpful. Thank you. read more

From the outdoor entrance the remodel looks great. Upon entering the look is updated and streamlined. Unfortunately for those that have shopped at Target in the past this remodeled Target misses it's mark. I think they should have taken that into consideration. They veered too far from their base model and lose some of their core shoppers. It seems they removed at least 25% of their inventory and placed what they do stock oddly around the store. I could not find the clothing lines that i had previously purchased. I do not like this updated method. Not sure I will be shopping here at this location as frequently as I had and wonder if other usual shoppers feel the same? I feel I'd rather go to a more original layout. On a side note both my daughter's like the flow of the new store, so maybe it appeals to a younger generation. My hubby says it feels very much like a department store. read more

For the most part I go to this Target the most because it's like a 30 second drive unless the red lights decides that it wants to stay red for 5 minutes. Plus: -Not very many people -Clean -Convenient for surrounding neighborhood Cons: -Even though they don't have as many people as other targets, they always seem to be out of stock on a lot of things. -They don't carry the yellow Sunsilk Shampoo anymore. BIGGEST SIN OF THIS STORE: On this historic day, January 23, 2010; when I went in for my usual craving of Cheddar Cheese and Sour Cream Ruffle chips they RAN OUT. They only had ORIGINAL. ONE FLAVOR. WHY!? HOW?!?! read more

STACEY IS AWESOME!! She has the best customer service. She helped at self check out! Best customer service I've ever gotten there!!

They used to do customer service at this location. Now they do an empty Starbucks. What used to be a competent customer service desk has been replaced with two registers and not much intelligence. Target very nearly went out of business when Amazon stole their lunch. I stayed loyal because they were smart enough to realize price matching was all that could save them. Unfortunately, since they sold out customer service for Starbucks, they also appear to have hired special flowers who don't grasp what Amazon is to staff their customer service half assery. Apparently, "Prime Shipping Eligible" doesn't mean free shipping is eligible to Prime members. The geniuses are certain it means special membership pricing. As there are two types of products sold on Amazon: Those sold by a third party (not eligible for price matching) and those sold by Amazon (which, almost exclusively, means they are Prime Eligible), this means the characters at this store absolutely refuse to price match Amazon. Fortunately, Amazon are offering same day delivery, more and more. I look forward to the giant Starbucks they'll no doubt put in once their ruined customer service costs their last few customers. read more

Target - The completely empty Starbucks where they used to offer actual customer service. - Department Stores Near Me - San Diego, California

This target is conveniently located next to the freeway, as well as being located in the same plaza as many other great places such as walmart, ross, kohls, jamba juice, 24 hour fitness and more. Huge spacious parking lot. Doesn't get TOO crowded I presume. Inside is well kept, organized, bright, clean. Easy to find things and maneuver around. Friendly workers. Good deals. Overall, I can dig it. read more

We always create a list of what to buy before coming to this store. From that list, we tend buy just a little more This store is tremendously clean and very very big So the selection's aplenty, which is something I totally dig You can find employees when you look left and right They're dressed in red shirts that are oh so bright I often come here for cards, eyeliners, and meds A trip to Target is something I'll never dread This location offers easy parking and Starbucks inside Cheap items and delicious caffeine is what they'll provide :) No single corporation deserves a perfect rating But this one is my favorite, and there's no debating read more

I always stop by here if I'm nearby this location and need to buy something. Apart from getting in and out of this shopping complex/area (traffic), there are no complaints. Always find the stuff I need and now I also see more specials every time I'm in a Kohls. I hope they aren't liquidating. Compare to other stores, the cashier lanes go by quick plus very friendly. read more

Great place to shop if you don't have a job or family and like to stand in a line for hours.

Went in for literally only 3 items I didn't need a cart or basket so I carried my items in my hand. I went to self checkout and the attendant watched me scan my items which is normal. But to blatantly stand behind and watch me scan everything is a form of harassment. Other customers were at the self check out but she made sure to Watch me until I was done! Her name is Diane, I called and spoke to her manager Sam and he seemed to not care at all. He was rushing me off the phone.Terrible service!!!!!! I'll never shop at that location again!!!! read more

I have never really been a fan of Target before until today. We came in for assistance with camera's and video games. We were shopping for a Go Pro that is water proof and has a helmet for hands free recording. Chase and Wesley were two amazing employees. Chase was extremely knowledgeable helped us with our quest and we left happy customers with our products in hand. Chase your customer service was impeccable. You are extremely polite and have a great way with customers. Thanks Target for making a great choice on hiring Chase. read more

I honestly don't know why this location has such crappy reviews. I used to be a target team member and feel like I can tell a good target from a bad one. This location is clean, well-stocked, big with a great selection, and there's always many registers open. I have been here many times and have personally never had an issue with checking out. Definitely prefer target over Walmart, but that's just my personal opinion. Love the selection at this location, love that they keep it zoned and maintained! Prices are cheap (duh) and that's always appreciated. (Curse the target city in Westwood CA that takes advantage of UCLA students! - shame on you) read more

I'm not even going to write anything negative. I just want to share that Debbielynn turned my morning all around! I unfortunately went in with a return BUT let me say if target had a rewards card I'd be at top tier with the rest of the targetholics and she greeted me so cheerfully was just having the best morning of her life & it rubbed off on me. So thank you Debbielynn! & I hope you get rewarded for this review. read more

I hate complaining, I've tried talking to several managers about their restrooms,I know it's public and it can be challenging to keep clean when it's busy. However it's barely 9 am, the store opened at 8am and the women's restroom has 2 out of order stalls, and 2 unclean filthy stalls. I spoke to the manager all he did was apologize instead of sending someone to clean it. I ask for Corporate number he referred me to Google, not I had to get her persistent with him to get the number. It's so ridiculous living in the 92115 area, all these Big box stores in this area they don't care about their customers like in the area I work 92108. They are forcing customers to shop online. Shame on you Target!!! read more

The only reason I come to this Target is the location. The service usually sucks, they don't stock near as much as most other Targets and there is no pharmacy. This store also does not like to price match. If you are planning on price matching head to Mission Valley. Management and customer service are much better. read more

Not happy with there online shopping. I purchased a television on cyber Monday from target online. They had a 15% online discount on top of sale price. There price was $999.00. Walmart's price was $997.00. Any how with the 15% online cyber Monday sale I was sold. I got an email it would be ready to pick up in a couple of hours. That was around 2 pm. I showed up at the store after 5pm. They could not find me in there system. This is after I showed them my email for purchase and pick up. They said there's nothing they can do. I just had to wait for a updated email. Okay I figured I'll pick it up the next day. So that night while I was sleeping is when the new email was sent from Target. New email stated that they canceled my order. So they can't just waste your time and money just because. I contacted them and got nowhere. Don't waste your time with target. They don't honor their prices. They apparently have sales then don't stand behind they advertisements. read more

I love the selection at Target it's not too cheap to the point to where the items you purchase are garbage but they are good enough to last you a while and made from pretty good quality. I think target has really found that happy medium of affordable but durable and nice looking stuff I purchased these headphones over a year ago and they still look great today there Bluetooth jams .pretty awesome! read more

Target - Nice nd Bluetooth - Department Stores Near Me - San Diego, California

They're renovating the target on College Ave. hopefully it will be finished soon. They're doing a lot of clearance items now so that's always helpful! read more

Target now has a return policy that if you return an item $200 they will not except returns any more. Even if their product. Moved here & got several house gifts from there & returned one & they would not take anything else. Big Corporate co. Does not deserve our moneys. Shop locally or stores own by local businesses! Done with Target/ I use to love shopping there but bottom line - they are a greedy company & I rather go on line & find local vendors or stores - even if I need to pay a little extra! If you take the time can find anything you buy at Target in other places for less some times! Promise you have options. Shop locally! Give back to your community by doing that. read more

Why are there only 3 check out registers open on a Saturday at 1pm? There are literally 12 check outs, with computers, ready to take payment. And yet 3 are open. So many people doing full grocery shops. The lines are ridiculous!!!! Please... OPEN MORE REGISTERS. read more

Nice remodel but what's the point if the shelves are always empty. This place is frustratingly out of items all the time and it's been like this since they spruced it up. read more

Store is clean (not dirty), however it is always messy. Nothing online is in this store. They are unorganized and don't have many size options or multiples of the same clothing product. Things are in the wrong location and not put back correctly. They don't pick up after customers putting stuff down in the wrong location. Every time I have gone to try on clothes, there is no one tending the dressing room. They have shoes displayed and a mess of shoes below with the wrong shoe or very few size options. I'd rather drive to mission valley where they keep up with products coming off the shelf. Home and athletic department are their best sections. read more

The customer service here was better than at any target i've ever been to. Was having problems with my target app giftcard and savings-it wouldn't scan, AnneMarie really tried helping us figure it out, ultimately it wasn't a problem on their end but we were given a giftcard for all the troubles and told to call corporate. It made our night way less stressful. There was also a young man who helped us as well. I cannot recall his name but AnneMarie hopefully can vouch for him-super helpful as well! Thank you guys! read more

I come to this Target regularly and it's surprisingly clean compared to other stores around this area. Also, Target has the Cartwheel App that's loaded with coupons and is always informing you on new deals and merchandise. The employees here are very friendly and helpful. I came here to purchase a Sony Gold Wireless Stereo Headset (PS4), the employee reminded me to check online to compare prices since Target does price matching. I was able to find a better price online and with the price match, I was able to save some money and get my headset right then and there. The parking lot is huge, so it is always easy to find parking here. read more
