    Beautiful store displays
    Myrna S.

    I love occasionally visiting this store because they have such an eclectic inventory. The time we visited, the store was having a Easter Egg Hunt promotion inside the store; sadly, we didn't find any or stopped looking for them after a while because we actually stated shopping around for the stuff we went in there for. After a few minutes, we bought a couple of snacks; the ladies at the registers were very efficient, they were quickly ringing up customers, so even though the line was long, it moved pretty quickly. Overall, we had another enjoyable visit to World Market.

    5/24/25 FYI. So many unique flavors.

    Time for an update. Today this is my go-to relaxing place while my wife shops next door at Nordstroms, lol. We are also regular customers at your Oakland, CA location in Jack London Square. Quality/Quantity - Back in the day, this was my go-to place for exotic wines, beers, and bulk candy. Now this is the place where my daughter likes to try different drinks, beers. We spend much of our time in the unique wine department. I now check out all the international food as I have discovered it is much easier just buying it from here than trying to haul it back from overseas! Atmosphere - Cut and pasted "from the business" on Yelp because I would NOT do a good job describing this company: "Eye-catching, trend-setting home accents, an awe-inspiring array of international foods/wines & and much more..." "beauty & excitement of global bazaars." Plenty of mall parking. Service - Good. But mostly self service. And after browsing the aisles, I am usually found in the furniture/patio furniture area sitting and Yelping, lol. Price - Items sold at cost, plus ten percent; this was the Costco's model at one time. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1958 with your 240 locations. Also, nice that your headquarters is in Alameda, CA, which is also my stomping grounds. :)

    I appreciate that this place is still open. I do love going in and looking at all the different things. It's like a cultural experience just going there. Sometimes I like to pretend I'm not in Nevada. I specifically come here for the crepe mix. Hard to find, priced well at 7.99 and excellent. Go get yourself a 20$ crepe maker off Amazon. It will change your life. The cashier was super mellow very attentive and helped me with their rewards program. Store was clean. I couldn't ask for more. No line on a Sat evening.

    In my younger days, in another life, World Market browsing and shopping was a regular event. Love to look at the "Imported" goods. It was fun browsing and looking at the furniture, indoor and outdoor. Employees are friendly and helpful. Store was busy in a weekend. I also looked at the foods. They have an assortment of snacks, and baking mixes. I also looked at the different small appliances that they had in the "kitchenwares"

    I just want ask what's up with the lack of smiles and eye contact with employees? Absolutely zero from our cashier and watched the of staff - same thing?? It was creepy as my daughter said. Do you lose your holiday bonus or is it bet? Part of employment contract - " must not smile at customers! " Anybody smiles they lose? Please answer if so! I wish this was a one time thing but almost all stores seem to have similar energy. I love this store otherwise. Great products and prices. My go to for gifts , Christmas or otherwise. And the fun food categories are so fantastic. Great place to explore other countries unusual food.

    I've never been to the World Market before but we went in there for a cake and ran into the food bar. My partner and I stared at each other after we looked at the food and we instantly wanted to eat it. We were confused on the process but the employees there were very friendly and walked us through. After we paid the good price for the amount, we began eating and to be honest my expectations weren't high but it surprised me on how good the food is. The vegetables were really nice and the meat was really tasty and tender. Definitely would come back because I saw the coffee shop there and I would love to try that

    For dependable seasonal, ever changing furniture, food, drinks, soaps, housewares, stationery and decorations. Its always fun exploring whats available, the imported items and foodstuffs. Lots of things from Asia and Europe. They do a great job keeping food items within expiration dates. Love the discounts for day-after seasonal items. Love the mini help yourself coffee sample. Lots of parking.

I was specifically looking for a rattlesnake calathea and wasn't having much luck finding one. I reached out to Urban Scout and they had 2 in stock so I asked if he could hold on until 4 pm(about 6 hours after I reached out). I show up at 4 and Ken was working. I mentioned I had reached out about the Calathea and he instantly pulled it out from behind the register. Soooo nice! I was an environmental major in college, and I also collect house plants so the world of plants is super important and exciting to me. Ken was nice enough to not only show me around, but told me a bunch of cool facts about all these plants that I never even knew existed (such as, the rattlesnake calathea spreads out in the day time when its receiving light and will become more vertical as the sun goes down!) I went into the store looking for one specific plant and ended up leaving with 4! The service was enough to keep me coming back until the end of time! I had a great time learning new things and checking out all the beautiful plants. Ken gave me advice on some plant care for the new plants I picked up, and was very enthusiastic with me. This was extra cool because as I mentioned, this field is really important to me and it was totally inspiring to see someone share the same passion. The prices are very reasonable, and honestly lower than a lot of the other speciality plant stores in Reno. I'll 100% be back!

Located in South Creek with a good amount of parking, La Galleria has been my "go to" place for many years for things you just don't find anywhere else. They have an amazing selection of unique items, from jewelry to stone carvings/sculptures, blankets, clothing and too many things to list here! The prices range, so be prepared to spend some time walking through and seeing all they have to offer. Brooke has done an amazing job with the items she's selected and is always willing to help and talk about the pieces, as are any of the staff members. I popped in today and they have gorgeous Christmas items; you can't go wrong taking a peek or taking something home with you! I check them out every couple of months because they rotate stock and have new things to admire. Great job! Check it out!

Upon entering La Galleria felt like a magical winter wonderland and as many times with different friends coming each year this store happens to be one of my favorites. "While visions of sugar plums danced in their heads," comes to mind when thinking of this store. This year I picked up some gifts from here, I called ahead for pricing and made my way after work. After a heavy day at work I felt transformed by all of the enchanting decorations every which way one turns is something beautiful and enticing. I was greeted immediately and with the items I purchased asked if I had called prior. Each item was offered to be wrapped if gifts and they were absolutely beautifully wrapped. I was given some insight into the background of one of the items I purchased which was great.. There's home decor, jewelry, beautiful statues and a clothing area in the back. I'm happy to have shopped local for the holidays and will plan to be back.

Joseph did everything in his power to make help us out and made us feel right at home. My wife and I love the whole rustic modern feel, and we felt like kids in a candy store. We saw a long wooden dining table that we really liked, but decided to check out the other well known furniture stores in town before we pulled the trigger. We loved how helpful and friendly everyone in the store was, and we felt no pressure at all. After checking out the local competition, we ended up right back to where we started. Although some of products at the other stores may look nice on the outside, the finish and quality doesn't compare to what we found here. We purchased the long dining table, along with a another round dining table set and buffet table. They delivered everything in a very timely matter, and were so accommodating with our schedule! We ended up going back a few more times to order a few more pieces for the house! Thanks again to Joseph and the amazing team at Reno Tahoe Rustic Modern for the amazing experience. We will definitely be back again soon!
