This is mostly for a specific kiosk inside the mall. Didn't even get the name because the mature woman working it was so rude. I went in to ask a question on the sports jerseys she was selling and she was on her phone. I said "excuse me" three times & on the third time she snapped and replied "YES". She looked so upset and annoyed that I was interrupting her texting that I just said "Jesus. Nevermind." & I walked away. I was honestly flabbergasted that she had such a nasty attitude. How are you going to have a kiosk at a mall and be so incredibly rude? I don't know why she'd be selling at a mall because with that kind of attitude she seems more suited for the swapmeet. It honestly makes me reluctant to return to this mall at all if these are the kind of vendors they accept. Anyway, don't bother the kiosk with the lady on her phone selling sports jerseys unless you want your morning immediately ruined.

My grandson and I love the Lakewood Center Mall. Every time we go there we see less and less people. So go there, so they can stay in business. It has most everything you could want. The place is kept so so clean and it is safe. You don't need to worry about parking or your safety here. You will feel calm and comfortable. Parking is easy in their huge lot. They have a great selection of stores. They have a Costco, a Target and other mall type stores that are really nice. The service is always kind and friendly. The prices at the mall stores are reasonable. They also have a Kid's Footlocker and soon will have an adult one. We love their food court. There are many places to sit, again it is so clean, and they have a good selection. They also have store front eateries that are super. You can get Korean, Japanese, pizza, burgers, you name it. Now, all these places are cheap eats or moderately priced. They also have an El Torito right when you enter and it is really good. They are decorated now for Christmas and it is cute. They have Santa. Go there. And they have a beautiful carousel. Get on it. It is never crowded.

This is a nice cool mall with several economical stores. Variety of shopping from food to clothing and shoes. The service is great which makes it a plus to shop at this mall. Plenty of unlimited parking. The food court is just ok. They need more good selections. Bank of America and Burlington Coat Factory are in the same lot as the mall. Macy's and Jcpenny are their main department stores. They have Q, Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, Finish Line, etc. The mall is pretty decent size so make sure you bring your waking shoes. Note: You can enter Costco and Target from inside the mall which is amazing. They have nice restaurants also located inside the mall like California Pizza Kitchen, etc.

I came for 3 items and bought 10. Impulse shopping is so much fun!!! Salads, 2 shirts, Almond Roca candy, 500 piece jigsaw puzzle of the inside of a Costco store, and gift cards were the extra purchases. I also bought apple pie, sweet potatoes , and Hawaiian rolls for Thanksgiving, which is in 2 days.

Why are the public restrooms at the mall not open? The city planning commission should have had some regulation when it comes to square footage and available restrooms/parking, but with COVID, there was a temporary change. Having to go upstairs and through a blaring arcade is not appropriate.

I've been working at one of the stores in this mall for 2.5 years and it's at an all time low. No one shops here because of how ghetto it's become. Over the past month multiple stores keep closing because they can't get business. Security absolutely sucks too. When Jaime was the head of security he was amazing and did everything he could for us. I couldn't tell you who's in charge now but at this point I don't think anyone is. They care more about our windows being dirty or us closing 10 minutes early than they do theft. We've had people steal from us and they always tell us to call security but they never do anything. I call them and give all the info they need in like 30 seconds and they're like "uhhh ok got it" but then instead of them coming to us and taking a report like they used to, I have to call them back just for them to tell me they couldn't do anything. Then when I complain they say "well we're all busy and are also getting calls from other different shops", which btw is 100% bullshit cause I see the same "security guards" walking on the Costco side going into stores to talk to girls or their friends or whatever instead of actually doing their job (ESPECIALLY the fat white one that keeps trying to grow a "Mustache/beard" but can't LMAOOO. when asked for his name he says "Ramirez" which I thought was funny) Whoever runs security doesn't know this because (here's a secret for you that I'm gonna put in all caps for everyone to read and maybe they'll finally do something about it) THE CAMERA BY COTTON ON FACING TOWARDS COSTCO DOES NOT WORK. They know this and from my understanding have failed to anything about it, why I have no clue. There used to be a jewelry kiosk near hot topic and they got broken into one morning but didn't know what the guy looked like so they asked people near by. Since then that jewelry place has moved to a different side of the mall. He probably found out that THE CAMERA FACING TOWARDS COSTCO DOES NOT WORK so he moved his kiosk. All this to say, the mall is a dump, stores pop up and only last a few months before leaving due to theft or no business, security is pointless cause all they do is try to hit on girls, theft is probably at an all time high because people are realizing workers can't do anything and neither will security. It genuinely wouldn't surprise me if this mall were to ever shut down. This place is a mess and no one is doing anything about it

I've always love this mall since I was a kid! This mall is so big and it has a lot of stores to shop at, especially video game stores, and that's why it's always been part of my life! I will admit that the only one flaw it has is that sometimes there can be some massive brawls between some individuals, including black people (not trying to be racist since I'm not against black people as I have a lot of respect to every type of race and as long as they're courteous and well-behaved), which is why I would LOVE for this mall to enforce security guards and metal detectors in order to prevent any violence and shootings from ever occurring as well as making sure weapons don't get permitted, even put up signs that weapons and soliciting are not allowed at the mall and also prevent any crazy, ridiculous stuff like fist fights and massive brawls from occurring by prohibiting all that type of stuff as well. That's what I would LOVE for this mall for the better. Other than that, I LOVE this mall so very much, it's been part of my whole life ever since I was a kid, and I give it 5 stars and a 10 out of 10!

Yeah lots of people like to talk shit about this mall, But i have always liked it. 2 of my Cousins stay at the mall. Think my cousin Britanny used to work here with a girl i was going out with once. Anyways this mall is not so bad. We were here during the holidays just muckering around shopping. Macys , Target, Jc Pennysm and Starbucks. Shop at some of the popular places. Nice to see families still shopping here after covid. More new stores opened up. Like the Cerritos Mall, A bunch of stores were closed down for remodelment. Always a pleasure visiting here.

My first time here at Lakewood Center mall. Major store front are Macy, Jc penny , Target, H&M , Costco. Plenty of parking spaces available. ( Costco is not connected to the mall it's adjacent with in walking distance outside the mall) Reasons for my visit were to try the open food stall vendors " Lakewood Family Market ". that's located on the corner of Candlewood St / Lakewood Blvd. adjacent to El Torito Restaurant and on the back side parking lot of Target . At this location Lakewood Family Market is here on Saturdays. I've been following Khin Khao a Cambodian/ Thai / Lao food vendor for sometime and was excited to know they were here today. Khin Khao serves authentic Thai, Lao and Cambodian food . At this market we were able to try their papaya salad with dried shrimps , fermented crabs . Wow! So delicious. My kids enjoyed their beef and chicken skewers, beef were tender full of authentic cambodian flavors of kreung ( lemongrass paste ) chicken skewers were equally delicious. Wish they had more of their mango sticky rice available. Sweet mango and warm coconut milk with sticky rice . Like an orgasm explosion in my mouth lol !!! ( took it home to heat in the microwave a little to warm the rice / coconut milk )
