Alejandro is amazing!! Very knowledgeable and helpful with picking out our wedding bands. He has a great selection of beautiful jewelry is his store and all at a reasonable price. Highly recommend checking this family business out! They've been around for 35 years and know what they're doing! read more

Alejandra is amazing! He took my wedding ring and made it look beautiful again! He is a wonderful craftsman and jeweler. I have come to his shop many times and always been impressed! Thank you Alejandra read more

I spent all morning looking for a white gold chain, had been to a few other places in town and was not satisfied with the prices. I found the best price by far here, and the man helping me, who I believe is the owner, was so friendly and gave me such helpful service. I highly recommend coming here! I will be going back for sure. read more

Had my ring resized before and recently the individual behind the desk helped me fix my wife's bracket that wasn't properly locking. This is a great professional shop. read more

Fantastic, family owned and operated business. I love supporting a local shop where the staff is knowledgeable & friendly. We had a nice chat while the owner was replacing my watch band for me. Thank you Jewelry Mart! read more

I went in to have a loop on my necklace changed from an oval to a circle. It took the guy less than one minute and I was shocked when he said the charge was going to be $25.00!!! I have been there before to buy a ring guard and he only charged me $10.00 for the ring guard and he put it on my ring. TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS IS WAY TOO MUCH to just change the fastener loop on a necklace! Always ask what the charge is going to be BEFORE proceeding with the work... I will definitely not be going back! read more

I had a nice pair of diamond stud earrings that I don't wear because I prefer the dangling style, so I brought them in to have an appraisal. The owner Alejandro was very courteous and helpful. He showed my daughter and me lots of cute styles of jewelry in his store. I ended up leaving with 2 sets of earrings & necklaces and my daughter got 2 necklaces and earrings. Alejandro also offered to switch one of the earrings and adjust the posts on another pair I brought in. What a service! We are very happy with the exchanges and can't wait to wear our new jewelry! Great business, strongly recommend:) read more

I could not have chosen a better place to get my ears repierced. Alejandro Cardenas has been so helpful. If I buy any jewelry in the future, I will go to The Jewelry Mart. I also recommend that store to my friends. read more

A nice lady fixed my watch latch in less than a minute! She literally saved my day and allowed me to get to work.

I LOVE this store. An old school jeweler. Alejandro is wonderfully talented and were I in the market to buy fine jewelry, I'd come here. Repairs very inexpensive, which is why I went (also bought silver cleaner a few months ago). Very fair prices. He's a true artisan and I love that he's a local business supported by locals. read more

Excellent jewelry Store. there you can find very pretty jewelry for every occasion. Highly recommended

Replacing a watch battery does not happen very often but when you need it done it can be a real pain. Went to the the jewelry mart on my lunch break hoping I could get it done. From the time I walked into the shop to the time I was wearing my watch again couldn't have been longer than 4 minutes!! Very friendly, great service and quality work. I could not be happier!! read more

Overnight jewelry repair, good price. A digital receipt would have been nice, but still 5 stars for a seemingly honest jeweler who seemed interested in his work above profit. read more

I was so happy to give this place my business! To be honest, I was headed to a watch shop that was temporarily closed so googled watch battery replacement and this popped up. I was already close so gave it a whirl. Parked in the back and do not recall the gentleman's name who helped me but I had 3 watches needing batteries and he was upfront about one costing more to replace because of what is required to access the battery. He replaced 2 batteries and I'm still deciding about the other one. I had a chain that needs saudering and got a quote on that. I had a ring that needed saudering-gave me a quote. Oh! On one of my watches, the lizard band was still in good shape but the "gold" clasp was discolored. We solved that problem for very little cost and it feels like brand new. I'd go back. read more

HORRIBLE!!! No stars. My ring was ruined. went to get it resized and it was also shrunken and damaged. The agate from the back of the ring was removed. One of the worst experiences I have had and100% the worst experience at a jewelry store. When confronted with the damage, the owner told me essentially it was my fault, and I had not know what I had bought. read more

My fiance had my engagement ring custom made at the Jewelry Mart, and it is so incredibly perfect. He had the diamond from his great-grandmother's ring and worked with Jon to design a ring based on the (copious) advice I had given him on what I like. I wasn't in on this whole planning process, but it seemed like my fiance had been having a hard time finding a jeweler that would make a custom antique-looking ring, and Jon stepped in to save the day! He incorporated all the things I loved most on other rings into one unique, beautiful, intricate ring. I still can't get over how awesome it is! I also had the ring resized there and the service was great. We were in Santa Barbara for only a few days over Christmas, so Jon said they'd likely have to hold onto it longer than that in order to redo all the filigree and milgrain on the band after sizing it down (or give it back to me with a flat space on the band). However, the other jeweler whose name I didn't catch (but I think it must have been Alejandro) resized it that day and preserved all the details on the band, so you can hardly see where it was resized. I had my ring back within a few hours of dropping it off. Talk about excellent service! Everyone there was very friendly and upfront, which was great. I would highly recommend the Jewelry Mart. read more

I came in to get a necklace fixed, it only took about 6 minutes and cost $8. I was very happy with my experience and would recommend them for jewelry repairs read more

Just bought my wedding band here. And they polished my engagement ring. They were timely, professional and very friendly. I am recommending them to all my girlfriends getting married in the future. They are also VERY affordable. The band I wanted off Blue Nile (which is a commercial mass production jeweler) was half as much at the jewelry mart. Thank you all! read more

Alejandro is the best. Beautiful jewelry made by him. I bought a pink stone ring that he made. I get so many compliments.

Alejandro Jr. (the son of the owner with the same name), came to my rescue when the battery in my Moto 360 Gen2 smartwatch died and Motorola has stopped supporting this device. I was able to purchase a new replacement battery on eBay, but instructions for how to perform the replacement function sounded more complicated that I was comfortable attempting myself. Alex Jr. took on the task for me for a very reasonable price and very quick turnaround, and now the watch is back to working great! The total cost for the battery and his work came out to $20 less (and MUCH quicker) than Motorola had been charging customers in the past for the same job. I'm thrilled that I didn't have to retire an expensive and well-liked watch due to battery loss. Highly-recommend for watch repairs and their inventory of jewelry is also pretty nice. read more

Alejandro and his son were great to work with. My fiancé and I purchased our wedding bands here for a great price. In addition to our bands, Alejandro resized and cleaned up a family heirloom ring and it looks amazing. So happy I found the Jewelry Mart! read more

The absolute best jeweler. Beautiful things in store and fabulous work on jewelry repair. Have been going here for years and am always leave the store happy. Great staff too!! read more

I came into The Jewelry Mart to get my watch fixed recently. I came here first because of its stellar reviews on Yelp. Perhaps I should have paid more attention to Steven A's review. A piece of the watch had fallen off inside of it and had become lodged in between the spokes of one of the gears. I was immediately greeted by a young woman upon entering. I described the problem to her in detail. She took the watch to the back, and I followed her to the counter. So far, so good. After a moment, an older man came out from the back. He was looking the watch over carefully and briefly shook it violently. He then told me that it was not worth it to fix the watch. I was surprised that he either had ignored his assistant or hadn't found the piece which was lodged in the gear. I repeated my statement to him about the piece lodged in the gear, and only after manhandling the watch and its band some more did he notice it. He asked me to leave the watch with him so that he could open it and remove the piece. I asked when it would be done, and he said that he had a backlog of work and would get to it when he could. I then asked if he thought it would be done today and he snapped back with something like, "Well, I'm not going to just do it for you right here while you wait." (paraphrased). I was surprised at how rude he had been, not just with this comment but the entire time, so I took the watch with me. After all, I was worried that he wouldn't make an effort to correctly fix it (or worse, ignore the actual problem with the watch), since he seemed to have either ignored, forgotten, or was unable to find the problem before. I was half-afraid that he'd try to prevent me from leaving somehow because he seemed quite angry at this point, but I was thankfully able to exit without further incident. Anyway, I would definitely stay away from The Jewelry Mart and its poor notion of customer service. read more

I recently purchased an engagement ring from Jon at The Jewelry Mart, and my experience was exceptional. Jon knew everything about the jewelry shopping experience was foreign to me, thus gave me the additional time and education that i needed. Jon made my fiance and I feel extremely special, and custom made the ring she had always dreamed of. We are now going back for my wedding band, and will be customers for as long as we are in town. Thank you Jon! read more

I recently visited the Jewelry Mart with a challenging request. The store was busy and Alejandro handled all of his clients elegantly while taking care of me. The store had a great selection of Jewelry as I could barely get my wife out without maxing out my credit cards! haha I will definitely be coming back, without my wife though ;) read more

I needed to get two watches repaired and The Jewelry Mart did the job. I called ahead to make sure they could do watches the same day, which they can, and when I arrived they did the batteries in about 3 minutes. The fee is $10 per watch which I think is very reasonable. They definitely weren't conversationalists, but they got the job done quickly and the price was right. I will be back. Other than watch repair, they have a selection of chains, watches, men's wedding bands, women's engagement rings, pearls, fashion jewelry, etc. read more

Brought in 2 watches, 2 weeks ago. One to get the battery replaced, the other to remove a link. The older man helped me with the link which should be no easier than the battery replacement. When I had my battery replaced, they said it was hard to take the back off (probably due to the good quality of the watch) The younger guy came to give me my watch w/ the battery replaced & to my surprise, the hour mark silver bars had fallen off and alerted me that it was because the glue holding them had worn off. Mind you, it's a Guess watch & he didn't tell me before... Perhaps because I had given it to him in perfect condition other than minor scratches on the wrist part. Let's not forget that it was hard to take off and I'm sure him prying it off didn't cause that to happen (sarcasm). And if it was the glue, why didn't it "wear off" before I got there? I'm only giving 2 stars for the older helpful man. read more

Just went in to get 3 g shocks repaired. Fast work, friendly vibes, good prices! Very impressed with this lovely establishment.

They repaired my silver puzzle ring while I waited. The price was reasonable, but the best part is you can't tell where the ring loop was previously broken! The store has a lot of very nice and interesting pieces (the various opals stood out). So I have to give them credit for not laughing at my cheapo silver ring. I'd definitely go back with other repairs. read more

Absolute top notch service! Alejandro was incredibly kind and helpful. I did not feel pressured or guilted into buying something from him. In the end, I bought my fiancé a ring elsewhere when we found something she really loved, but brought it to him to have it resized. The quality of the work was impeccable. He also rushed it and did it same day. Highest recommendation! read more

I forgot to write about John, in my last review. I like John, because, you can trust what he says as truth and up-front honesty is greatly appreciated when you are trying to buy something or learn something about jewelry. Everyone at The Jewelry Mart is, informative and helpful. I've been going to The Jewelry Mart many years. They are my go too store. Samara read more

Had an excellent experience with this establishment. Jon was incredibly helpful, friendly, and excited about working with us for an engagement ring. Not only did he walk us through the design and fabrication process, he made sure we understood what attributes were going to affect the quality of the finished piece. After several follow-up sessions, we received an outstandingly beautiful ring, elegantly designed and perfect for us! We were treated very well, the customer service was amazing, and I would highly recommend their services to anyone interested in a local jeweler! read more

Excellent service and it was fast (less than 5 mins) two get 2 watch batteries replaced. Price is also on point.

After searching around Santa Barbara to get two engagement rings made, a friend suggested the Jewelry Mart. I'm so glad I listened to her. Jon has been amazing, he's really friendly, knows what he's talking about and is very happy to answer all my questions. He got 4 diamonds for me to look at in person and I couldn't be happier! The prices here were far less than other places I had been looking, for the same high quality gold and diamonds. I highly recommend getting your ring made here! read more

I went in for a simple watch resizing. It was 15 dollars which was a bit pricey for a simple resize, but I was fine with it. I came home and the entire watch fell apart in my hands and I had to do the resizing myself. Very sloppy workmanship. Moreover, the watch was still loose and I wanted it to be smaller and they convinced me to keep it bigger because they didn't want to take out another link. I will have to get it resized again to fit me properly. Never coming here again. read more

Excellent results on my ring repairs with genuine customer service. Highly recommended. Great price. read more

Amazing customer service and so quick! We got engaged the night before leaving for the holidays with an old family heirloom and I was desperate the wear my beautiful ring as soon as possible! Alex and his father were so attentive, and, within an hour and a half, the ring was ready! The ring is so beautifully polished and the craftsmanship to downsize it is excellent. So grateful to have a family run jewelry shop you can trust so close by! read more

My fiancé and I are very happy and grateful we found The Jewelry Mart to design and create our engagement ring. Jon made the process what it is meant to be: exciting, fun and effortless. I came to him with a great deal of indecisiveness and very little to work with; I probably wanted a solitaire, maybe rose gold, definitely a classic and timeliness look. Jon is a pro and is able to to discern and make sense of my crude expressions of what I want. He helped me organize my thoughts. I got distracted by all the sparkly diamonds but he guided me to a ring that matched my initial instincts, a classic rose gold solitaire. Jon was responsive to my e-mails and when I made a last-minute change to my setting he cancelled the order of another setting with no fault to me. Visits to The Jewelry Mart were always a fun experience as the staff are all attentive, warm, and welcoming. On an exceptionally hot day of diamond viewing I was greeted by the owner, Alejandro and a cold Pellegrino, so fun! When it came time to pay for my ring Jon unexpectedly gave us a significant discount. The Jewelry Mart is an honest and openly communicative business. I was kept in the loop the entire time which eased the anxiety of such a significant purchase. I know Jon worked hard at finding me the highest quality diamond in my price range. He is an expert in his field and I learned a great deal about jewelry during the process. It only took a couple of days to set my stone, and my ring was ready for pick up! We will be back for our wedding bands. read more

I took my heirloom wedding band from my grandmother's 70-year marriage in for resizing. Based on another review, I expected to pay far less than the $55 I was charged. At least it was polished and fits me now. read more
