Its Target, what can I say. They either have what you are looking for or not. staff is friendly, store is clean, price is somewhat reasonable. read more

Who doesn't love target and the dollar spot? I agree with some reviews some of the items are little pricier than other stores. But it's one stop shopping. They have a grocery section with frozen food and a refrigerated section with juices, meats, some fruits and veggies. They cleared out all the Halloween items and the store is now filled with Christmas items for the house. I wanted to take it all home with me but I would have gone broke trying to do so. Target has really nice home decor items. Looks high end for less. This is store is always stocked and organized. Cashiers are friendly great customer service. Huge parking lot you'll always find parking out front. read more

This is my go-to Target. It's hard to review a chain store like this because it's consistent with all the other Target's. The parking lot is kind of nuts, but so is every other parking lot in Southern California. The always seem to have lot's of cashiers open during busy times, which is a huge bonus. I love Target, even if they give away my private information. I'm not that exciting, so I didn't take it too personal. :) read more

I love Target. I can literally walk around there for hours. It's the perfect place to just kill time. When their items are on sale I often take advantage of it. This location is always nice and clean and it just makes my life so much easier when I can find everything. When I'm not so much on a budget I come here for my necessities like body wash, shampoo, feminine products, eyeliner. I mean, everyone knows that Target's just a tad bit more expensive than Wal Mart. But I'll pay the extra dollar or so when I can afford it. I usually buy my sports bras and some of my leggings here for the gym. Very comfortable and if you go at the right time you'll find a decent selection. I buy my kids clothes from Target also. Well, just their underwears, socks, and shirts. They have cute clothes and it's pretty affordable. They range from $8-$16. But if you find some on clearance some are less than $5! read more

JUAN CHAVEZ is the Mira Mesa TARGET Manager. I Asked Juan Chavez (Manager) why he was running his curb site delivery in a very poor manner and not providing that service "as advertised"... He started excusing his sloppy and poor management skills with Corona Virus excuses. I told him he was not running a hospital and he was not a Dr. He became very rude waving his hands all over the place as his employees looked at him making an idiot of himself. I asked him - Why do you offer a service you cannot provide? Stop it! You are playing with people's lives right now. He said sorry, it wasn't his fault. So if it's not his poor managing skills, who's is it? Juan Chavez should not be managing anybody but shrimp peeling pans in back of a greasy food shack where he does not have to deal with the public but the sticky shrimp and his negative personality. read more

Great target that's always the best in terms of being up to stock with new releases. The reason for this review is for how kindly the employees and manager Juan treated me when I needed help, and I would recommend this store not only in terms of stock but also for service. read more

Kevin and Kassandra at customer service were so helpful and kind even though it was a busy Saturday, they took the time and saved me a lot of money. Thank you so much guys!!! read more

So, for my 100th review, I decided to make this one based on the Target near my place. Why so, you may ask? Easy... as it's practically across the street from where I live, I find myself here at least several times a week. Now, while the Target in Mission Valley is far better than the one in Mira Mesa, this Target location suits the bill. I find myself more comfortable shopping here than at, oh, say, Wal-Mart due to the overall service and prices here. The three stars I'm giving for the review is because sometimes the store won't restock product I'm looking for unless everything else in that particular section is sold out, and of course the parking can be a bear (though I don't mind walking from the AT&T Store area if I need to). Otherwise, your typical Target experience. read more

It's literally pointless to go to this target. Nothing is EVER restocked, coming here is a waste of time. You might as well drive to a farther target. I have never came here and gotten everything on my list. There's shelves in EVERY section of the store just completely empty. read more

Clean and friendly employees but always out of stock of so many items I need. Never had this problem at any other target I have lived near. Thy need to order larger quantities of things that are always flying off the shelves or something. read more

Been coming here for decades and have seen it flourish with the upgrades. Parking is a bit of a challenge as nobody ever follows the direction of the lanes or acknowledges the stop signs. The store is always organized and their staff are very friendly and helpful. It does get busy during holidays so get here either super early or really late before close to avoid long lines and getting what you need in a timely fashion. read more

I love this target but wouldn't recommend using drive up for groceries. Anything else is fine but not a big order of groceries because a lot gets mixed up and if you make two drive up orders make sure you tell them and make sure they give both to you because half of mine was missing unfortunately and I had to go all the way back. I did get a gift card for the inconvenience which was nice and it got handled ; just wanted to let people know! read more

Target needs to train their staff on being more pleasant when greeting customers. The shelves are always stocked minus the toy section. I've came here a few time after checking the target app but when I went to the store, the product was sold out. The cashiers are nice and the store is decently clean compared to other retail. read more

Place is always stocked up but I find it a bit pricey! I love that I find parking always.. Staff is pretty helpful too. BUT long lines during busy hours. I feel they should hire more staff. Especially if the holidays are around the corner! On a side note.. Food area could use a little help! I think it should be a little bigger than it is currently! Will always shop at my target! read more

If you go to Target for makeup and other beauty products you might want to go to a different location. This Target never restocks items in the makeup isles. The workers as well have no idea what they're doing. I asked multiple workers where chia seeds were and they all gave me different isles and directions. read more

Everyone has a favorite Target right?!?! Well, this one is mine. I guess you could say I'm bias to it because it is the closest local one to me but I know where everything is which is great. I swear girls could spend hours in target, you could probably even take your girlfriend to Target as a date & she'd have an awesome time (I know I would) Customer service here has always been great. Selection for makeup, clothes, bathin suits, hand bags, and shoes have always been really stocked at this location. Which I greatly appreciate. Store is extremely clean and organized. A+ on that They always keep their $1 front section (that always seems to draw you in to buy stuff you don't even need) updated to the most current holidays or trends. read more

Pretty disappointed!!! I've been going to this same target for years. And who ever was managing the self check lines on 10/12/21 around 12:15 accused my sister of stealing grapes. Working in retail for 12 plus years you never accuse the guest or customer of stealing. You ask did you scan the item or I think you might have missed one of the items. I know for a fact as well you see everything one your handheld that's being scanned in. So she could of checked that. Don't be talking to another employee so loud saying a customer stole while all the other customers can hear you. Your embarrassing people for no reason. read more

I know target is a large store but I find their capacity concerning during the COVID purple tier. Just shopping makes me worried that's why I started doing the parking lot pick ups instead. I am unaware if the 25% capacity limit only applies to certain stores but target will always be my go to regardless. As for the pick up process, it always goes smooth and employees are very respectful in regards to covid safety guidelines. I give these guys a lot of respect being my items to my car especially when it's dark and chilly, phenomenal and secure customer service. 10/10 would recommend. read more

This Target store is a little bit smaller than other Target stores, but it's well stocked. It's usually pretty busy here. Friendly staff with positive attitude makes this place stand out. Hassle free returns at this store. read more

I went to Target last night for a few items I was running out of at home. It was a quick trip with my mom, nothing special and was in a little hurry since our dinner was being delivered soon. When I got in line, I noticed our clerk was pretty chatty with the woman in front of me. I quickly noticed that he was going above and beyond most cashiers at any store, helping her to decide which pumpkin decoration looked best. In that moment, he also acknowledged my mom and me to say hello and let us know he'd be just a second. At first, I will admit, I was more worried about getting in and out. But right away, he was so super kind, and so super friendly that it relaxed my mindset to rush home. He was extremely friendly, asking how we were doing, hopefully well considering our environment, and I have to say it was refreshing to meet someone who was happy to be working, or at least helping. A wonderful attitude I hope never changes! Thank you, Don. Last note, I was given a survey to report my experience on the Target website, and unfortunately, I figured it was a longer survey than "Would you recommend Target to your friends?" Which is why I came to Yelp to make sure that Don received proper accolades. read more

This Target is fabulous. I've tried their order pickup service twice now, and the service was so fast and easy, I'll be using it long after COVID is over. read more

Who doesn't love Target? I can wander around there for an hour or more easy. The Mira Mesa Target can be very busy if you don't go at off times but it's like any other Target. I feel like Target is pretty on point all the time. My review is for their sales, did you know that if you go in the morning and shop the meat department you can find meats with a blue sticker that Target puts on super sale because it's expiration date is coming soon? I love going and getting their organic chicken and freezing it. Just a little tip I thought I'd share. Also, don't forget to use Cartwheel for additional discounts. read more

Target is Target. I have not had any issues. They occasionally change things around, however I believe that is typical of Target. When they first opened the grocery section many items were less expensive then the grocery store. Now those items are same price or more expensive. Just shop for certain items only because other places are too far. read more

I'm not sure exactly what makes one target different than another, but this store doesn't deserve such a low rating. There is always parking, lines move quickly, and the store is very clean. The people working at the pharmacy are my favorite, but I've never had an issue with anyone working here. What more could you want? read more

I have had the weirdest experiences with customer service today, and this Target set it off. First of all, there was gum (FRESH gum, no less) on the floor of the fitting room. Yes I realize this is more of a criticism of the type of people who patronize this establishment than it is of the store itself, but I feel as though I should have been warned away from fitting room #3. Second, and this was the weirdest and/or most terrible display of customer service I've ever seen: I'm standing in line to pay for my household goods (soap, qtips, toothpaste... Target stuff) and this older couple approach with what appears to be their grandchild. They speak very little English, but are clearly attempting to purchase a bicycle for the tyke in their company. It seems, however, that they are buying the display model of the bike, and that the chain has come off. No biggy, I was thinking (as are you, most likely). Yeah - right. Not at THIS Target. They are (unfortunately) being helped by the most uptight, PRISSY human male I've ever encountered. Not only did he not put the chain on the bike, but he tried to insist that they leave the cycle in the store so that their service staff could help them out the next time they were in. Which was Thursday at the earliest, and he couldn't even give an approximate time, since he had no idea when the service folk would even be there. Seriously. If someone is trying to buy a bicycle from you, the least you can do is risk gettng your hands dirty and pop the chain back onto the gear thingy. I mean, come on - SERIOUSLY. I tapped the lady on the shoulder and offered to show them how. The couple happily agreed, I fixed the chain and off they went. I was horrified and offended on their behalf. I wish I could give negative stars for the jerk who refused to help them out. read more

TL;DR: The visit was good except for 2 things: inconsistencies on Target having cashiers asking you for a Red Visa Credit card and the sampler perfume/cologne aisle not having black nozzles to smell which makes it a 4 out of 5 stars. I was here at around 13:00 on a Thursday, July 13, 2017 buying some beauty products. I wanted to note that in my opinion, Target is a great alternative to Walmart when it comes to organization and layout of their store. Customer service I feel is about the same for both. Product wise, I feel that Target does a better job of keeping their products in neat and appearance condition over Walmart, but pricing wise I think Walmart is more competitive. I feel Target has better quality control over Walmart. With that said, I wanted to discuss a few things about this Target. The service here is good. Workers here are friendly and nice. If you have a question about where an item is located, they will tell you where it is if you ask so nothing has changed on that. I don't think I have encountered a bad experience based on service here. They also have a self-checkout, great alternative if you do not want a cashier to push the Target Visa Credit Card on you. (BTW, it is a great credit card if you shop at Target because you save 5%). The items are generally well stocked and easy to find. I think once I asked if they had something and they pointed me to the direction. The store is well laid out. The returns and restrooms are right next to the door on the right side. The clothing items are straight ahead. Keep walking and you will eventually hit the rest of the stuff that you want to buy like groceries, electronics, beauty products, kitchenware, birthday cards, and medications. They also have a coffee shop, a pizza shop and a pharmacy. Pricing wise, Target products are reasonable. Sometimes they have deals on products that if you buy a certain amount, you get a gift card. Other than that, sometimes it is better elsewhere. Just really depends. They have a good return policy if you do not like your item and their lines are usually not that long, with exception of shopping season which is in Nov-December. And speaking of pricing, they have free wifi here so easy to check up on prices before buying too. Now speaking of my visit today, I would say everything was good. The only 2 things that bothered me was the perfume/cologne section. There were many sample bottles to pick from, but none of them had any black nozzle to push to test it. That bothered me because I was going to see if any of them smelled good so I can make a purchase. The other one was the Target Visa card. I know it is not the cashier's fault, but rather it is inconsistent on asking. I have been to several other Target locations, but there will be about 25% chance of them asking you about it. I just do not know why some ask and some do not. It makes me feel like the cashier is trying to meet some sort of quota, which is why I give a 4 out of 5 stars. read more

I Come here just to get toothpaste... But leave I with 10 other items... That seems to be the case everytime I come to Target. From socks to frozen turkeys, Target has it all. Clean and fairly organized, Target has very competitive low prices compared to other supermarkets for everyday essentials. If I ever need anything, I can usually find it at Target. read more

Can't really complain about Target. The prices are reasonable, you can buy anything here from clothings to electronics to food!

The employees are very helpful and friendly. The people that work at the Starbucks (particularly the guy with his ears gauged) are probably the best baristas at ANY starbucks I have ever gone to. Minus one star because this Target frequently runs out of the products I need (milk and formula are the worst and I always need them) and a lot of their items (I notice it a lot in the baby aisles with formula, bottles, and the other things I buy frequently) are significantly more expensive than the exact same item at the Poway or Mission Valley Target. read more

Today I bought a food item that expired 7 months ago! I am a disabled senior shopper who was forced to shop using my cane as a lone disabled motorized cart was charging. I purchased 3 different Campbell's Slow Cooker sauces. When I got home, the sauce labeled Tavern Style Pot Roast expired on Jan 7, 2021! Seriously? Nearly 7 months ago? I'm disgusted! I now have to go back & stand in line at the return counter because TARGET screwed up! How many other food items Target carries are expired? When I called to talk to a manager, TWICE, I was disconnected after listening to a lengthy message & 30 phone rings to 2 different departments which went unanswered. Will likely never go to this Target again. read more

This Target pales in comparison to the one on Balboa and Genesee, but I have to give them some credit. It's my neighborhood go-to department store (even with the brand new Kohl's that opened up nearby), and I find myself perusing the aisles at least twice a week. Despite the small size, unkempt snack bar, and relatively disgruntled employees (and even clientele), this Target is the homey-est one. And yeah, maybe the lines can take a while, but that's not the norm at least in my experience. For those complaining about lack of parking, they have failed to acknowledge the ample parking spaces past the road that runs down the middle of the plaza. If you include this, there's more than enough parking for everyone, and it's not even that much of a difference of a walk. And in terms of themed Yelp elite events, Target has helped me get themed attire. Target is nice, efficient, and reliable. It's my department store Volvo. read more

Huge fan of the mira mesa target right here. Target kicks ass, for more than just being not Wal-Mart. The aisles are wide and well organized, containing all sorts of household goods everyone needs. The employees act like they want to be there, and it's well staffed enough so they can handle a huge volume of shoppers at the numerous check out registers. Ever since target became cool to shop at a few years ago, it's pretty packed here. Parking and traffic can be a problem. Welcome to Mira Mesa. Anywho, as far as target's go I like the cut of it's jibe. It's big but not annoyingly so such that it's too hard to find stuff. They sell alcohol at this one, so yay for that. I don't know why they don't do that at all targets. Trust me, you defnitely want a bottle of wine with your toothpaste, condoms, laundry detergent and computer desk. read more

I'm a pretty big fan of Target as a retail chain, but this one seems to have supply chain / inventory issues. Products will be in stock, disappear for six weeks, and then randomly re-appear. (For what it's worth, this pre-dates all the COVID issues; I'm talking about things like frozen spinach and Colgate toothpaste). Even though this location is ultra-convenient for me, it's gotten to the point where if I *know* I need something, I'll make the trek out to the Poway Walmart or another well-stocked store. I'm hoping that they'll get their variable inventory issues corrected, but it's been this way for a couple years and getting worse, so... Oh well. First-world problems right? read more

The Target website stated an item was available at my local store. At the store, they told me there were 4 of the items in stock. Turns out there were zero in stock. Customer service called another store who said the item was in stock there, so I drove there the next day and there were zero in stock. There were also zero apologies or smiles. I called a customer service line to talk with a friendly enough person whom I could barely understand, she had such a heavy accent. She told me to order the item online and have it delivered to my local store. I did after much hassle - the website was very difficult to use. Within minutes, I received an email from Target saying my order was cancelled - no explanation that I could see. So, after several days of being sent on wild goose chase and driving all over town, I have no item. Keep your website current and take items off the website if they're not available. Stop wasting people's time. read more

I love Target. I love the fact that most stores have re-worked their layout and not all the stores are basically floor plan 1, floor plan 2 or floor plan 3. This Target in Mira Mesa will always have a close place in my heart since my parents restaurant was in the same shopping center many years ago, and when I came here, it was because I was bored at the restaurant and needed somewhere to walk around. Parking is a little rough cause the stalls where your car go are mainly diagonal so you can only enter in one way or you could enter in and kinda u-turn your car, but people always end up having to reverse a bit and re-park. Honestly, save everyone the trouble and just park correctly! read more

I love Targets. This one is a very large store and clean as well. They are in a huge parking lot on Mira Mesa Blvd. Something is always on sale. I came in to find some school supplies which were plentiful. One place we come to choose our Lego sets, books and I love the fact that they have groceries now so I can pick up some of those items I don;t get from a local store. Oh, can't forget the pet foods! read more

No Allen wrenches? Do you know how many people buy IKea furniture that needs assembly. Raise your game, kids...

Just like all Targets, this location is busy during peak hours. I also like it better since the remodel too. There are always Target Team Members around to help if you have questions. They also do a good job of keeping the shelves organized through out the day. I am happy Target has added a grocery section to their stores. There are many times I am able to kill two birds with one stone. Only thing they need to work on is opening up more cash registers during busy times. Sometimes the employees do a good job of paying attention to when lines are getting longer and other times no one notices how many custormers are waiting to check out. read more

I'm a big fan of Target in general, but not of this particular store. For some strange reason the staff seem to be unable to keep the shelves stocked fast enough to keep up with all the purchases. Every time I've been there, shelves have been empty, mostly the items advertised on sale (which is more understandable), but what I don't get is that it happens to regular items as well. Like last time the little area where they sell $1 and $2 items in the front was completely cleaned out, and what little items remained were all mixed together in just a few bins. But other than the re-stocking problem, the staff are really friendly and it still has nice stuff like any other Target (if you are fortunate to get there when it's still on the shelf). read more

I like Target, as in the store and its concept. However, the Mira Mesa Target apparently does not require customer service skills nor generally acceptable levels of intelligence to be able to gain employment... I'm cool with it as long as I don't need help locating something. The problems only arise when I ask someone where something is...I have literally had 4 different people tell me different sections of the store when I asked for ONE item. And, to make it worse, they told me with CONFIDENCE. WTF. I wonder if they learn in training...when in doubt, just deflect questions...with confidence, of course. read more
