Love my local target - delivers on all fronts! Clean and spacious, a big target!, tons of great products- everything you'd want including a Starbucks and Ulta inside. Staff is super friendly and helpful, including the security guards such as when I have accidentally had the red tags left on after making my self check out purchases...haha. Returns are quick and easy. Great deals on women's clothes and accessories, keep your eyes peeled for sale sections scattered throughout. Excellent home goods and party supply sections, also love the office supplies. Very clean and nice ladies bathroom. Not sure why this target doesn't have more 4-5 star ratings. Thanks target team! read more

Bought a knife block from Target as a birthday gift. Opened it after a trip and realized it wasn't the brand on the box. It was a mishandled return with a rusty, used, and completely different knife set inside. We went to exchange it 17 days after purchase, which is well within Target's 90-day return policy. The San Pedro store denied the return because of a price discrepancy...a discrepancy that was their mistake when they placed the returned item they never zeroed out back on the floor in the wrong price slot. We were sold a tampered product for the wrong price, then blamed for trying to return it. Instead of fixing it immediately, like any company would do, we were passed between Guest Relations, Asset Protection, and store staff who all seemed confused and inconsistent. One employee told us to wait at Starbucks for a manager. Another insisted the decision was final. No one seemed to know what the actual policy was or how to handle it. We were made to feel like we were pulling some elaborate scam over a $99 exchange caused entirely by their own error. After more than an hour of waiting and escalating through multiple departments, including Twitter and BBB, a manager named Kenneth finally processed the return. He was calm and professional, the only person who seemed to have a grasp on the situation. That said, he appeared to be wearing glasses equipped with a small embedded camera. Some kind of discreet recording device, from the looks of it. There was no explanation, no disclosure, and the whole thing felt quietly unsettling. Even when someone finally did the right thing, there was still something off about how it all played out. Target didn't just mishandle a return. They failed at every level of customer care. If they pull out all the stops to make returning a $99 knife block this difficult, would you trust them with any major purchase? Probably not. Unlike other major retailers who handle simple returns with no questions asked, Target's response was a corporate shrug followed by "we'll pass it along," as if that counts for resolution. read more

Very clean and organized... I was here for snacks only. The store was packed with customers and I was glad to see that almost every cash register was open. I've walked away from other targets before lol. read more

Last resort when shopping at this location. They're often out of everything that I need. However, I'm sure it's beneficial to other shoppers. Parking lot is always full and be careful of individuals selling perfume, gift cards, puppies etc... they pop out of nowhere read more

I love Target. This. Friggin. Much! It sucks that stores are in danger of needy thugs and ruthless hooligans. This past week my friend Ben was able to stock up on some polo shirts and Sketchers shoes. A couple of weeks before that he got some pants. Tonight me and Stepmom got some good finds, which the grocery section Target generic is trademarked Good and Gather. I got Good and Gather string cheese for less than four dollars and Tillamook Extra Sharp Cheddar cheese for less than five dollars. I also got Strawberries and Cream Dr Pepper. She got ground beef and baby potatoes. Thanks, Target. Thanks, Stepmom. (259) read more

I'm disappointed to write this, but the Target in my hometown has developed a reputation that reflects poorly on our community. On multiple occasions, employees on break are gathered directly in front of the store, sitting on benches or on the ground, smoking and leaving cigarette butts behind. From a customer perspective, this looks more like loitering than a professional workplace. It's unwelcoming, messy, and not what you expect when walking into a major retailer like Target. Presentation is everything! Many employees appear dressed in a very casual and unkempt manner, which adds to the overall lack of professionalism. This isn't just about personal preference. For those of us who live here, it's frustrating because Target is often one of the first impressions visitors have of our town. Unfortunately, people do make assumptions based on what they see, and this location (and many other retailers in this town) should not represent the pride, cleanliness, or character that most of our community would like to see. There are many retail locations in San Pedro that need the same critique, but Target really stands out. Target can and should do better. Designated break areas away from the entrance, clearer expectations around cleanliness, and basic professionalism would go a long way toward improving both the customer experience and the store's image. Right now, it feels neglected, and that's disappointing for a store that's supposed to be a staple of the neighborhood. read more

I usually enjoy shopping at Target, but the customer service, service especially with Target Pickup...has really gone downhill. The staff was not the friendliest, and the entire pickup process felt disorganized and unnecessarily slow. I checked in as instructed and then waited forever for someone to bring out my items. No updates, no communication, just sitting there wondering if anyone even saw the order. When someone finally came out, there was no apology or sense of urgency...just a "here you go" and that was it. Target Pickup is supposed to be a time saver, but this experience was the opposite. Definitely rethinking using this service in the future. read more

Don't get too excited- it's a Target, nothing more. More shopping than you can shake a stick at, decent prices, great return policy. Something I didn't know - my sister has a Target "debit card" which gives you 5% back and doesn't have the drawback of impacting your credit score. read more

Was generally a good place to shop. But we know that Target has been struggling with revenue. Went WOKE and angered 50% of its customers. Then went MAGA and angered the other 50%. While Walmart thrives, Target is trying to stay relevant after its politics blunders. So cost-cutting is expected. But Target's value over Walmart was its customer service. That's why we paid premium prices over Walmart. Now we wait 30 minutes to an hour to pickup or return during weekends. Not the employees' fault when pickup items are all the way on the other side of the store and there is only one person at the return-pickup desk. This is clearly a management failure. So I just decided to shop at Walmart instead - same level of customer service, but with lower prices. read more

The dude and I had to come to Target in the San Pedro area on 11/12/22 as we forgot to either pack or buy some items for a 7 Day cruise as the cruise items can be very expensive! Anywho, we fell in love with this Target as it was very upscale compared to the Central Valley Target. The clothes appeared better, shoes, food, items in stalk, music and even staff. I did need to ask for help which the staff member who was doing an order was looking for something similar so we found one of his co workers and they were so helpful. So the customer service was stellar. Since this Target is close to the Cruise Center the typical cruise items were pretty GONE like anti nausea medication and they mostly just had the kid kind. We wanted to make sure we had some in case we felt queasy. The store was so clean and organized. Beautifully decorated and we loved that they had Ample BLACK Santa items which the dude spotted out. I was thrilled as finally ...Target ...well I'll just keep it as that so just know this warmed my heart and love for Target even more! Anywho, it was a lovely shopping experience from start to finish. Highly recommend this location and of Course any Target usually gets the job done!! read more

Ulises is a very quick and hard worker as well as the manager Adrian! Great service all around and speedy checkout.

The last 5 times I've come into this target there have been multiple people outside the main entrance and in the parking lot scamming people with fake fundraisers. The guy in the parking lot was wearing an orange vest and looked like he was retrieving carts till he pulled out his clipboard and started asking for people's information and money. "Security guard" stood there on his phone doing nothing. Don't give them money or any info it's all a scam read more

I was never much of a Target shopper back in NY. But where I live now I can literally walk to Target and it's the only place that I can walk to (instead of drive) for a quick Starbucks coffee or to get a carton of milk or eggs when I've run out and aren't due for a proper grocery run or miscellaneous items I'd normally get from a CVS.. In other words, it's practically 5 stores in one (pharmacy, cosmetics, stationary, grocery, Starbucks) in addition to the usual Target stuff. Ulta, CVS, and Starbucks are all co-located in this Target location after all. Because of this I've found myself coming to Target more since moving here since I'd rather take a walk than have to go drive for every single little errand. Depending on time/day it can get very busy here but there's always ample parking. And I typically just use self checkout to speed things along. One thing I don't recommend is their "order only, pick up in store" option. Very inefficient. read more

I'm 9months pregnant with a 5 year old OBSESSED with Pokemon before the resell craze, waited in line for 7 hours for them to drop the cards today (11/14/25) and finally had to come home to due to stomach pains and the manager REFUSED to accommodate at least a single ETB box for me to pick up in a few hours. read more

I am assuming this is an abandoned Target with no employees because that's the only explanation for what I experienced. I bought a few items that were set to be delivered on my birthday. The items never came. I called FedEx and they said that a label was created for the item awhile ago, but the San Pedro Target never gave them the item to deliver. I called the San Pedro Target 3 times at different times of the day and I tried different departments: no answer. So, they are not sending out orders, they are not picking up the phone, and from the other reviews, they are generally not working either. That is incredibly frustrating and I hope corporate does something about it for the sake of the customers. I am glad the Target in my area have better employees, but the Target system seems incredibly flawed. That makes me really sad because I do love Target! read more

Totally forgot to leave this review. But I unfortunately made the mistake of ordering groceries here through DoorDash... check out how this target doesn't care that they leave meat that was dated august 6th and my order was August 12th ! The meat was rotten and not only is this targets fault but the dasher clearly didn't care.....Not to mention the produce was disgusting, the apples were soft and the entire order was just gross. How could target even let this happen??? Just thought I'd show everyone how this location could care less about anything... read more

I'll be honest I stopped shopping at target when things started getting weird with all the unicorns and stuff. Target has made a commitment to stop carrying items that might make people feel uncomfortable and I'm going to return to Shopping here. I appreciate target for listening to what customers want. I want convenient bargains and safety and cleanliness. I don't need politics or controversial subject matter to be part of my shop in experience. I will update review after I go shopping at target if you're not shopping at target because of all the controversies check out the action they're taking on behalf of what customers are asking for very cool and they have my business back. read more

Where do I even begin! Cannot stand the soliciting every-time I've shopped here. The guys in the blue shirts for "charity" have harassed me to the point where I had to defend myself and my kids! Where's LAPD? Or security? Hmm. I also cannot stand people begging for money AND when the people looking for signatures when it's time to vote. RUDEST employees ever. Never smile, never greet, lanes never open...do I need to say more? Bathrooms?! Omg I can't use the language to describe them! My advice... hold it if you can. After being harassed recently, I refuse to go to this Target. You need a revamp SP Target. read more

Jazmin went above and beyond helping me today 2/4/2024 at around 12pm. I went in to buy some fresh pet food for my dogs. Upon arriving to the asile of the refrigerated food, the refrigerator was empty and there was no restock. I then asked Jazmin who was about to enter the back warehouse room if there was any in the back, as I showed her the item from my phone and told her it said there was some in stock. She kindly hurried and brought out three bags. Score for me! The bags themselves are about 9 dollars each. My dogs eat it so that's all what matters. read more

Ok so target is target BUT...I usually expect a higher level of overall customer service. In fact, employees at this location have demonstrated a decent level of commitment to that end. And then there's today. Most stores in this league and caliber will often offer deals on various items in their stores. Two for one.... Buy one get one free.. etc. My deal was 3 items for a certain price. 18$ to be exact. When I got to check out I verbally expressed to the employee there that the items in my cart were on special. He acknowledged. After the completion of my transaction, I check my receipt specifically looking for my deal and I was overcharged and I immediately notified the employee to which he said there was nothing I could do. So i asked did he simply overcharge me hoping I would not notice rather than indicate there is a issue with the pricing. Go see customer service he said. So, I did. A few Steps later, I'm working with another employee who I explain the issue again...this time, even though the employee fixed the problem... he said " I was mistaken and read the advert in the store incorrectly and that the only way to get the deal was to have the target app installed and digitally provide a coupon. I told him, I was certain that was not the case but took his word for it while he price adjusted me. Great thanks. Once that transaction was complete.. I walked back to the display and snapped a photo of the deal. And of course no mention of any specifics to earn the deal. I brought the photo back to the "customer service" employee..thanked him and then showed him the specifics on the display via the photo on my phone. He took my phone ... magnified it from corner to corner and said well I already gave you a better deal than that so..... Yes but you also intimated that I had no idea what I was talking about and now he had to get involved and fix an issue that I created out of thin air. Thanks for the resolution, but keep the condescending comments to yourself. read more

I used to shop inside this Target but now will only use their drive up service. There are always people selling products or candy in front of the store or hassling people for money.

Please do something about this! read more

I don't know what has happened recently, but the drive up option at this store has gone from top notch to absolutely terrible. Like every time I come I'm waiting 20 min or more. They only seem to be able to bring outa single order at a time, then vanish for five minutes or more only to bring out a single order again despite the 12 vehicles waiting. I'm not sure what changed, but it needs to change back. read more

Honestly had a really good experience at my local Target today. I found exactly what I needed today and the store had enough checkers to prevent any of the lines from getting too long. For the most part, they usually have in stock what I need! It is also so close to home so it makes it really convenient for a quick run or even for a longer browsing trip :) read more

I'm grateful to have a target in San Pedro but ......First Saturday in December at 1pm- lines are soooo slow. Not even that many people waiting. Just slow checkers and why not open more lanes.

I'm not in the mood today, TARGET!! Amazon is getting all your would be business. There are say... 14 registers. I've been waiting for about 10 minutes and there was only 1 lane open with 10 people waiting here. They JUST opened a 2nd register. You can only go to self check out here if there are less than 10 items. I have 30. Geez... Target, I know you're trying to push us all to automation and it's a bad way to go. The only thing you're making me do is order more from Amazon. The more you do this as an inconvenience to us patrons, the more $$ Bezos makes that would have been yours.

The overall experience with the cashier Rita was horrible. I witnessed her telling the person in front of me that she made a mistake ringing an item up and then she said "what can I do? I made a mistake. When I Arrived at the register, she rang up my items and one of them did not have a tag. I said "I can go get another pair with the tag and she said it doesn't matter.
