Listen, I know it's small. This review is not about the size or the lack of product. I do not expect much because, well, IT IS SMALL. This review is about the staff. There is one girl who works here in customer service who acts as if she cannot be bothered and is extremely annoyed that you are in her store. Her attitude sucks every timeI have unfortunately interacted with her; once is totally fine. Everyone has a bad day once in a while. But this is not that. I do not want or need to feel unwelcome at a freakin Target, lol.

This Target is a smaller one, and they don't carry the Goodfellow shaving razors here. There is NO electronics section either. Not as small as the Target at Rusty Leaf Plaza in Orange but still a smaller one compared to most with a visibly narrower selection of what they do carry here.

It's so small. I don't even think it is worth going to.Maybe just for groceries? Anything else, you are lucky if they have it. I was in disbelief at how small this Target is. I've never seen one this tiny. Like seriously, they had none of the things we needed. After walking around awhile and realizing they had nothing to offer us, we left and went to another Target. And found what we were looking for at the other one.This Target is so small that it made me think of that scene in Zoolander, where Derek says "what is this a center for ants!? The people can't even fit inside the building!" Replace the word "center" with "Target" and there you have it. lol "What is this a Target for ants!? The people can't even fit inside." This might be a good option if you just need a few things and don't like dealing with crowds. I could see those things being positives of this tiny location.

A young associate by the name of Timmy working at the self check out provide what I would call great customer service. I was having g trouble with a gift card, but he answered all my question, gave a solution in a very polite manner. Thank you and keep up the great service

By far, the weirdest Target I've ever been in. Walmart has a Neighborhood Market and I would compare this to that, but smaller. It looks like it used to be a Long's Drug Store back in the day and the feng shui here doesn't match the typical Target layout that I'm used to. Also, they have a full on beach section in the middle of winter. I only ventured here because I was waiting for Ai Pono restaurant to open up for dinner, but I would not recommend this Target to anyone looking for a normal Target.

I went into this Target for the first time on Dec 3, 2022. I specifically went in just to check it out. I liked the layout and how well they used the space. The produce area is limited compared to other Targets and there are no produce bags so the bag of grapes I picked up leaked all over some other stuff I was attempting to hold to purchase. Then I see a young 12-14 year old boy zipping around in the handicap cart on a joy ride. Right, I don't like to make assumptions, but there was no cast or crutches and when I looked at him in the eyes...he was brazenly unashamed in his actions. When kids take handicap carts they are not only robbing a truly disabled person from the use of it in that moment but they also use the battery which then in a snowball affect limits the the use of the next person. How do I know this? Because I have had several surgeries and been in cart that dies on me when I am halfway through shopping and then half to spend 30 minutes getting an employee to come to me and track down another cart if they even have one. I have also had the cart die on the way to the car and been stuck in the parking lot with no one to help when I was in a brace and on two crutches. On my way out of the store, I asked security at the door the policy on asking kids riding in the handicap cart to show their disabled DMV form, same as the police would when a handicap person parks in handicap. Security then nervously laughs and says they know the kid can walk just fine and that they saw him out on his joy ride...but essentially they didn't know what to do...because of needing to be PC. OK, I ask, so what is your store policy? Where are the parents of this kid? Why do I keep seeing this everywhere I go? Sorry but if you ever have the pleasure to have surgery or get old and truly need a disabled cart you will feel very disrespected by young kids that think these carts are made for their joy rides! While the security guards were very polite the responsibility of kids using the handicap cart falls on Target as it is their property! So Target, you are getting only three stars, as I want to send you a message that this is not OK! I'm sick of hearing....oh this is a kid just being a kid! Will someone please step up and teach our kids ethics and how to respect other people!

I wanted to purchase Yuban instant coffee. But the Target store I usually buy from was out of stock. I looked on Target's website and found that this Costa Mesa store had 3 jars @ $6.29/each. I went to the store to buy all three jars. But I also noticed that the price listed on the shelf was $7.39/jar. When I went to the self-checkout, I shared this information with the attendant. He confirmed that it happens from time to time; that there is a difference between a price listed online, versus the shelf price in store. He verified the online pricing with his handheld device and volunteered to make a price adjustment. It's a good thing that this employee had the autonomy to make the price adjustment and offer good customer service. It's bad that Target management allowed this discrepancy to occur.

Poor customer service I don't know what it is with this certain location but I've been in there twice and not one employee was courteous at the door when you walk in not a welcome or thank you even when at the self checkout I guess I'm old fashioned or use to the other stores if people like there jobs they show it with the way they treat people especially when doing customer service it's a must Target do better with this store when it comes to customer service.

This target doesn't have a big variety

One of the worst customer service here at this target. They are very racist and will talk down to you if you are not Caucasian.

I absolutely love Target and understand it’s different in every city. But for someone to look at you rudely when you wanted to use the self check out rather than to interact, that says a lot. We were stared at and approached a rude cashier who rolled her eyes at us when checking out. It made us feel uncomfortable, bc she looked at us as if we were at the wrong for wanting to go to the self check out than her lane.

You need more than 1 cashier at a time. Everytime I go there it's a line. The people working returns are not doing anything. Fix that!!

Target, unfortunately, never had the hold on me it has on people I’ve known. The thing that has a hold on me is a great price on something in stock that I can pick up.I ended up finding a deal on a bed recently and thought new pillows are required. The Target app had pillows for $4 in stock so I showed up and they were listed on the floor at $10.10. I assumed it was an app price and walked over to some shirts I needed and the store price was $2 lower.I ordered the pillows for pick up and bought the shirts in store. The shirts didn’t fit so I returned the shirts and bought a better quality one tagged at $18 but listed at 20% off. Once at home I noticed the shirt was 50% off.The store itself is small and left me wondering what else belongs in each aisle that I’m missing, it’s essentially Target essentials.Overall, just remember to make a cart on the app before you go so you can cross shop the store you’re at apparently.

I had quite a morning at Target on 17th street in Costa Mesa today. I approached the register to make my purchase only to be greeted by a rude, snotty cashier. She was very curt and short with me during the transaction. I didn't respond to her rudeness due that it's pretty common these days so I just let it go. As I stood there and watched her ring up my friend who over purchased and had to put 1 item back, she became flustered and treated him with similar to me but rolled her eyes as if he were stupid. I politely ask her " are you having a bad day?." And her response to me was" no, are you. I will never shop there again.
