The male Atlas finally has his female Athena! The very first A&A store to be found anywhere, it's…read morethe anchor retail space found under the clock tower for Crescent Plaza. Atlas, i.e. men's apparel, accessories, and items are front and center when you walk in the door. Athena, i.e. women's apparel, accessories, and items are to the right of the entrance. The clothing is hip and cool, and the fabrics and high quality. The jeans are lux and the tops are cozy and feel good to the touch. It's a larger space than the Atlas location in Walnut Creek, so they're able to carry a lot of styles for both men and women! Speaking of styles, their displays are set up by trend and not by vendor, so you can quickly put together a casual, trendy, or sophisticated outfit. They are the *only* place that carries the G-Star brand for BOTH men AND women outside of G-Star retail locations. Other vendors in their collection include the Canadian labels Dex and Tulle. In addition, they carry the Groceries label, created by a local from Pleasant Hill : ) Their target market is from 25 y.o. - 50 y.o., but the owner said that he hopes that younger and older clients will find their clothing accessible as well. *Note: The clock tower will be getting a makeover, as well as the doors to the store, and ultimately the entire plaza to make it more of a shopping destination, so watch for changes to come! *Tip: You can find out about their in-store wine tasting events with Do-Good Wines on their Facebook page : )

Mind you, this store only has one of each size out on the floor so you HAVE to rely on staff in order to ****ing buy anything. My partner and I came in to buy 4 shirts, shoes, shorts, a tie, and potentially even a suit. We asked to see the shirts to which the employee gave us a HUGE attitude and refused to go in the back or even use the store device to check for other sizes?? He handed us a shirt in the wrong color & size from off the floor instead, saying "well, they all have the same fit so..." which I don't understand because the store is only about 400 sq feet, we were the only customers there, and there's only sample sizes so it's not like he has to standardize anything??? Not to mention, we were in about four hours before closing, so I can't think of any reason for this unwillingness to help. Any time we asked to try on something, we were met with some excuse to not have it. I can only assume that the staff here doesn't work on commission because we even asked to order stuff that wasn't available in-store to which we were told to just "do it [ourselves]" on the phone. I worked in retail for seven years, and am always cautious to treat other staff members with utmost respect, but the way this particular employee behaved towards my partner was completely unprofessional and outright ugly. Completely disappointed. Despite loving the clothing here, we certainly won't be back -- and seeing how many other one star reviews there are for the terrible service... I definitely think management should look into improving their hiring practices.

The selection inside had pretty much all the styles that I saw online. I spoke to Victoria, and she was very eager and helpful. She pointed out that for sizing they have a rack of designated shirts you can try before heading around to pic a style after confirming your fit. When it was clear that I was going to buy something, the other sales people started to hover around me trying to help. But I let them know Victoria was already working with me, so they couldn't cut into her sales commission. Unfortunately, I discovered that I needed a size larger, um more accommodating, than I had hoped. I ended up requiring a harder to find size, which they didn't have in the patterns I wanted at the store. Victoria was able to find one online that I could order and have sent to me. She said the window would be 4 - 7 days max. It ended up being 8, so I missed it for the occasion I was hoping to wear it for. So a word of warning--they ship via DHS, which is often terrible. But I eventually got it, and it looked good. Abdul also helped with the online ordering, so I appreciated that. There's plenty of free mall parking.

My favorite place to go!!! ALO =)…read more Okay, so I was supposed to leave this review months ago, but here I am. Sorry you guys. I love this location, it's always SUPER CLEAN and VERY AESTHETICALLY PLEASING and these are things I go for. Parking is tough tho, they do have a parking garage but idk I hate parking in their parking garage for some reason. So, I park across the street from the shopping center inside Safeway parking, but you guys are not supposed to do this lol. Anyways, they accept cash and card. They are always fully stocked on items at this location, I have been numerous of time and they have always had everything I needed and wanted this is a HUGE PLUS. I wish I can remember the sales associate that helped me with everything when I was just last there, I want to say her name was BRITTANY, she is literally a gem and super nice/cute. I also met their manager, TAYLOR I believe his name was and he even shook my hand, this spoke VOLUMES to me and he was EXTREMELY NICE. I have to point this out because of a lot of managers are not ever twice nice, or people friendly, let alone want to shake your hand. But he was everything and more and he seemed so well put together himself, ima skin girl girly, and remind you this is from months ago, I went and forgot to leave me review but I still remember how clear his skin was. So shoutout to him!!!! Now, I have to give only one con I sort of don't feel, when I come and I look like a bum lol and want to be in & out. I am not treated as nice or friendly by some of the "pretty girls" they turn into "mean girls" and I really dislike this, we shouldn't treat people let alone your customers a certain way because of how they look when they come in. Please do not profile us, you don't know who we are, what we are going through, and our clothes/looks does not define us as a person or how much we are going to spend in your store because how we look when we come in. But other than this, I love them. But I have to give them 4 stars just because of this. Check them out!

I came into Alo to do an exchange and try on a few items I was interested in, and unfortunately the…read morecustomer service was really disappointing. This is the closest Alo location to me, and I've visited many times. Out of all my visits, I've only had one truly great experience - and that was back in October 2025. Most of the time, no one greets me or asks if I need assistance, which is why I end up doing about 90% of my shopping online and only come in-store for returns or exchanges. During this visit, I was quickly browsing and trying things on when a tag must have come off one of the items. I was in a bit of a rush, but I'm always intentional about what I select. The associate working the fitting room never introduced herself and made me feel uncomfortable, as if I was being treated with suspicion rather than as a customer. I'm not sure if the reaction was due to my race, the tag, or something else, but the interaction felt unwelcoming and unprofessional. As someone who shops the brand regularly and is part of their "All Access" rewards program - and even gets invited in for personal shopping - this experience was disappointing. I'll likely stick to online shopping moving forward. Alo, there's definitely an opportunity here to better train staff on customer service and how to treat loyal customers.

The dresses I bought look great, but what's even better is how soft and comfortable the fabrics are! During my first purchase I was able to get two beautiful dresses on sale, at the end of December. I recently visited in June and bought a vibrant red wide leg jumpsuit ($168) and a flattering summer print mini dress ($138) at full price. They're definitely worth the price. Service is always very friendly and helpful here! They always greet me when I come in, offer to help me start a fitting room, and check on me when I'm trying things on.

Overall I loved the fabrics and patterns they chose to use and found the styles quite cute if not a bit on the thin side. The service was friendly but a little hands off, so all in all I'd definitely consider buying online to catch any sales that might come up since in my opinion the value is a little below the advertised price.
