I stopped in here looking for a piece of furniture that was out of stock at the other two Target locations I'd already been to. It was out of stock here too. Also their down-escalator was under repair so we had to use the elevator to get back downstairs. Besides that, I like this store. It's clean and generally easy to get around in. Decent selection and polite, professional staff. Finding a check-out station can be a little confusing but that's my only beef with this store. read more

When I first heard that Target had decided to become an anchor store in the Pacific View Mall I thought insanity had set in with the corporate powers that be. Target was where you go to buy toilet paper and movies. The mall was for, well, everything else. I'm human and allowed moron moments from time to time; once I thought about it I realized it was a great decision. Multi-tasking is how we do things these days and why NOT combine household essential buying with mall ratting? I went in yesterday morning to finish up the Christmas shopping and was pleasantly surprised that the parking lot was virtually empty. Any leg up I can get on shopping as quickly as I can and getting out before lines form is a good thing and I amuse myself wondering if I can make decent consumer decisions in record time. I can! This Target is centrally located, spacious, and I know where everything is. They only get three stars because my last few visits the people out on the floor look surly and ill-tempered and more interested in gossiping with each other than performing the duties for which they were hired. I'm about to give up differentiating Target from Wal-Mart because really the only thing Target has superiority on is proximity. read more

My go-to target. Employees are nice. This place has everything I need and then some. Super conveniently located at the ventura mall and close to Trader Joe's. It has a Starbucks inside of you feel like fueling in before shopping. Just don't expect your drink to be the same as the baristas at your local sbx makes them, but tolerable. Makes back to school shopping a breeze. Their clothes ( kids at least) washes well and it's affordable. They have all the school supplies you need. You can download the cartwheel app to get savings, or so I'm told. Every time I try to use it due to the horrible wifi connection I can't. I have to make a pit stop at their book section and $1 section every time. Of course you'll grab those cute paper clips you didn't know you needed ;) Don't kid yourself thinking you're only running in for a couple things, always end up spending around $60 at least. read more

Target - Of course I had to pass by the $1/$3 section. Valentine stuff is out and they're CUTE! - Department Stores Near Me - Ventura, California

I received great customer service from the manager of this store. I was going to buy a dollhouse and the box was damaged. The item was given a small discout, The item was moved downstairs, and another employee helped me check out and put the bulky item in my car. All employees had masks, kept proper distance, and had a positive attitude. Great job Ventura Target. read more

Avoid Chris L. In the electronics department. He was extremely rude and disrespectful to me and my daughter. He could benefit from some training in customer service or some basic social skills. read more

This store plays way too much Spanish music! I understand some cultural influx now and then but Christ it's all the time. It's a total turnoff for most local shoppers, and especially those more affluent people we may want to have shopping in our city. Tone it down please!! read more

Super rude customer service pretty much accused me of stealing and wouldn't return my merchandise saying she would have to go through video to make sure I bought something. Completely ridiculous your customer service Melinda at the return desk is horrible and should be fired read more

The women's fitting room attendant was quite unpleasant. I did not get her name but she is a bit on the petite side, probably mid 40's or early 50's, lighter hair and a heavy Eastern European accent. She was the fitting room attendant 12/22/21 at 12:20pm. I cannot wear a mask due to a genetic lung condition. This attendant hounded me and asked to see my medical exemption paper and told me I had to carry it around the store with me so everyone could see. I was quite embarrassed because she was hounding me in front of several other female shoppers waiting in line for the women's fitting room. I've been able to shop at this location in peace for several months but the embarrassment she caused me and her prying into my medical privacy was crossing lines for sure. What ever happened to HIPAA?? There are medical exemptions in the state mandate So please let just shop in peace. read more

If you love to shop, totally love to shop wandering aimlessly down pretty looking aisles looking for your one thing and finding everything you don't really need but buy for future needs, then the remodeled Target shelves got ya covered. Even the clerks don't hardly know where things are located. By the way women's razors -my only goal today- are two shelves over from men's razors on a north/south facing shelf. Also may have used reclaimed water but guess the polished look includes pressure washing front of store. Speaking of washing, restroom floors are not a faux marble. That's the swirls of dirt from the mop moving yesterday's dirt around. Maybe google, "how to mop a commercial floor" and I cringe to thinking how above the floor essentials were cleaned...or not. Sorry, Target...epic fail this morning read more

Good customer service is hard to come by these days - does anyone agree?Customer service is what makes or breaks a business -- just my opinion maybe.... But as far as customer service goes, this particular pharmacy (at Pacific View Mall TARGET) is -=- by far --- the ABSOLUTE WORST & WEIRDEST i've ever experienced. I submitted a prescription -- was left a message that it was filled and that it would be $40. When I came to pick-up, the tending employee priced it at $60. When I politely asked about the mis-quote on the message, he proceeded to "hide" behind the counter -- and avoided coming back out! I thought it sort of funny -- but still rude and he could've simply gave me an explanation -- maybe it was a mistake? or something - anything, but running away and hiding? weird... just sayin... read more

Had an extremely unpleasant experience with a so called "supervisor" named Richard. Unprofessional, rude, and has no place being in charge of other employees. I will not be going back here until I am made aware that this person has been let go from the company. Target is supposed to be a pleasant experience, and this Richard person made it anything but that. Do better Target. read more

This is the filthiest and the most poorly ran Target I have ever been to. There is trash on the ground, on shelves and everything is out of order. I will never go back to this location. read more

See all

I'm scanning the reviews to see if I'm the only one to experience the rude, condescending customer service (if it can be called that, really) at this location. Lo and behold! I'm not the only person to have been treated to some of the WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE ever! Never again . Red card is now deceased. read more

I had the most amazing experience tonight. I went to try to get some help with a hoverboard we had just bought for my son for Christmas. The first woman I spoke to in customer service was lovely and polite but was unsure if she could help with my request (it was not a straight-forward return). She called her manager, Melinda, who was simply delightful. She greeted me, quickly figured out the issue and came up with a solution. Honestly, for a big store like this to have such personalized and friendly service, especially in the midst of holiday madness, was really an unexpected surprise. Your management is A+! read more

This may be an old Target location, but it still comes through which makes it somewhat of a hidden gem (of targets). They had some items in stock that we could not get at the other locations and we like that it is not a busy and easy parking. Skip the hustle, get what you need and move on. I like it. read more

Thank you Bianca for your super five star service. Being an elder Bianca helped me find a room size carpet and also put it in my shopping cart. She's tiny but Mighty. Thank you for your professional opinion and caring services. read more

This target has everything you need here. From clothes to food. This place even has a Starbucks and a pizza hut inside! I came here for fruit and water etc. I like the fact that they are providing more organic options as well. read more

Easy access from Pacific View Mall. Parking lot in front of Target is small. This location does have a Starbucks. I prefer Target on Main St. read more

Couldn't find a parking spot to save my life! Drove around for 10 minutes. Wierd people hanging around outside. No bueno.

If I could give a zero I would. First of all I want to say coming into this target I just got off and worked over time at my job where we closed at 8.... I worked over time because a bunch of customers came near closing and I had to stay and wait for them to finish up there shopping. Although it's frustrating I never forced them out and didn't allow them to shop. I understand it could be a long day but my experience there was TERRIBLE!! I came at 8:58, 2 mins before they closed, I only needed one thing. I knew I wasn't going to take long! I was greeted with "you better hurry you only have one min to shop" when I asked where something was to another employee he replied with " it's on the other end of the store but we're closed so you don't have time to get it" everyone there was SOOOO RUDE! gave me dirty looks and went out of there way to be extremely unhelpful. I was not going to invest my money at this place and frankly never will again! This target has had a history of rude employees! Idk if they don't treat their employees well or something but they're employees clearly don't respect there customers or they're employers. Hope this review makes a difference, but again never bringing my business there again. read more

Usually I go here at least 3-4 times per month. I absolutely Love target. However it seems like they are not big on being outgoing when it comes to greeting me when I walk in. Usually I'm very happy but lately I feel like the people that work at the Mills location don't care about customer service. So that's why they get a four.. read more

Just went into target to get an air purifier because of the Thomas fires. Danny and Jeffrey B are great and gave us incredible customer service. This is a very difficult time for our city and kindness and compassion really go a long way. Thanks guys u rock read more

I went to this location because I went to a different Target looking for a specific item. They redirected me here because it was out of stock and this location had it according to online system. When I was here, an employee of the name Eduard spent a good amount of time looking for that certain item. Turns out it was not in stock and their inventory was not updated (side note, all the targets was not updated either). He proceeded to help me contact other targets to find one in stock and he also had his manager offer some discounted deals such as free shipping. This employee went above and beyond the normal duty I would say. He contacted other stores and got verbal confirmation if the item was indeed in stock instead of going what was based in the incorrect system. Also thank you to the manager who offered the deal for the out of stock item when online inventory said otherwise. read more

This time good, I have had some poor experiences with Target but this time I am impressed! The check out line was fast and had a friendly cashier, she asked if I had found everything ok and I hadn't so I said no. She turned to a co-worker & he walked me right to what I needed! WOW now that's the kind of service I get from Albertsons not Target.... Good job! read more

Do people normally check Target reviews? Who knows. Anyway, I'm super impressed with the staff/service. Everything is always clean and relatively well stocked, and it's never been too crowded when I've gone. Can't beat the self checkouts either. The conveyor belt thing is terrifying though. read more

Staff was very rude, walked in and was greeted with stares, checked out and was greeted by stares. No one acknowledge my or my partners existence, they just look at you as if you're stealing. Horrible way to treat people. read more

This store does not even attempt to honor senior and compromised hours. If you are looking for a safer environment during COVID 19 do not shop here. The employees have a poor attitude and the manager leaves everything to be desired. read more

I called and called and they keep hanging up!!!' The hell!!! Bad customer service!!!!!

This location is okay it does the job , the only thing is that the dollar section is small the area of this location is okay . I found parking easily . read more

Went there yesterday and left so angry I had to leave a review. Y'all got a lil white boy working there who looks 12 years old and looks at everyone like he hates life.... I was next in line and I couldn't believe the eye rolling and attitude coming from him as he rung up a lady who barely spoke English. She was trying to make a second transaction to use a coupon and the guy rudely yells "what?!", yanks the item from her hand and slams it on the scanner !!! ..As this is happening a hear a mom behind me tell her kid to calm down because the cashier guys was really starting to scare her, she looked at me and just commented in awe. read more

Was using self checkout and staff did not know how to use the target circle...i just wanted to enter my phone number to get rewards but the employee helping me didn't even bother to try any methods and was useless. Wish she would've at least made an attempt to help me read more

I love the target brand as a whole. I do most of my basic grocery shopping there. I also find that their brand generics are some of the best. I do not like this location a much as others. Parking isn't the greatest, I think because they took over the old Robinson's May location, and parking vastness wasn't a big deal for that department store. I'm not a fan of the split level targets. I like when I know the layout, and two levels leaves me lost. read more

This is by far the worst target in Ventura county. I came to this location to price match and an individual told me they couldn't price match until the following day. I then came back the next day to purchase my item and then they tell me they can not price match for another week. This is my 2nd trip and it's a waste of time. The staff is not very informative and if they are they information is incorrect. read more

They sell expired food! ALWAYS check before you buy. I've notified the staff on multiple occasions and they always seem to take it down, but still, should't they be responsible for keeping the food up to date? read more

I love my target visits since I live in Carpinteria. This target is interesting because it is linked to the Pacific View Mall and so you can enter it through the mall, unless the mall is closed then you have to walk around to it's main entrance. This target is also two stories and you can put all your stuff in the cart and then there is an escalator for your cart. super cool. I also like that there are groceries here. I think even alcohol. They also have a full pharmacy! read more

Just got back from walking through Pacific View Mall. Anchor store is Target. Walking by I noticed an employee greeter standing at the second floor entrance. I asked what the policy was for dogs now that it is illegal for dogs to be brought into the store unless they are specifically trained to support the owner with their particular disability He said that is not enforced at Target. I know that because we have repeatedly asked, then complained on Yelp and to Target management. They are aware that many of their past longtime customers are on chemo. Many more are not so we have been pushed aside and ignored..no answer forthcoming. Go away, period. Too bad. Allergies not withstanding, immune systems are compromised. Dogs that are not trained and registered service dogs are free to run around sniffing drooling, our legs around groceries, you can see a puddle of urine on the tile floor. I asked manager Michael M. Why is this still allowed? He said nothing he can do.. "headquarters allows dogs as it as its for good customer relations". Target wants to please dog owners and allows them to be in the store illegally but myself and fellow chemo patients everywhere, can just stay out of the store as our only option. We are choosing to do that and ask others to stop shopping Target until they obey the law. Perhaps someone you know or love is a chemo patient? Does that make us second to dogs? I Ieft manager Michael M. and left the store. As I walked out wouldn't you know it, here comes a frisky , excited spaniel right toward me. On a long leash taking up.the whole aisle. I stopped in my tracks and said excuse me, do you know that only trained registered service dogs are allowed? She was adamant..she did know and said but "I don't see any signs!" Michael M...s I mentioned to you..your employee the night before at the second floor entrance was actually playing and petting a large pit bull showing everyone who walked in how safe and friendly the dog was. Ok, that's just great. PLEASE let headquarters know about the thousands of chemo patients and friends with allergies that won't be there anymore. Is it too much to ask to at least, post the signs you know are required by health dept. at entrances. That would have stopped the incident tonight. Noe K. read more

Customer service might need a little work, but they do the best that they can due to company restrictions. The cafe area is reasonably clean a majority of the time, but the restrooms are continuously dirty. Their electronic department are always knowledgeable and are quick to help. As for the Starbucks, I love it due to the fact that they might it right every time. If there is a problem with the drink however, they will gladly make you a new one. Staff for the most part in general are great. Yet, there are always a rotten egg or two around. Don't be discouraged and enjoy your shopping. read more

Jen in the pharmacy is totally on point. Really great at her job and she actually cares. She made my day that much smoother. Thats not an easy job either. High five Jen! read more

The employee shooed me out! Bad customer service. I was purchasing 30 plus dollars of food while on my hover board, then she told me to pick up my 30 pound machine or leave it at target read more

The Starbucks in this target is horrible. I ordered a drink there yesterday and waited 20 mins for my order yes 20. I ordered an iced latte with an extra shot like I do at all starbucks. There were 2 employees but only one making the drinks and he was new and didn't know what he was doing. When my drink was finally done I asked him if it had 4 shots because I added a shot and he said no its 3 shots I didn't have time to wait for him to make another one so I just wasted the extra dollar on no extra shot ohh well....the employees here need to be trained better in customer service read more
