Home Decor in Palo Alto, CA

“I love this Container Store—it’s one of those rare places where you can count on a great experience every time you walk in. The store itself is always clean, organized, and easy to navigate, which makes even quick trips feel efficient and stress-free. But what really sets this location apart is the team.

Megan, in particular, makes a lasting impression. She has such a genuinely friendly and welcoming demeanor that immediately puts you at ease. You can tell she truly enjoys helping customers—she’s approachable, patient, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure you find exactly what you need. Whether it’s offering thoughtful suggestions, tracking down an item, or just checking in with a warm smile, Megan elevates the entire shopping experience.

It’s clear that her leadership carries over to the rest of the team as well. I do a lot of business at this store, and thanks to Megan and her team, it never feels like just another errand—it’s always a pleasant, even enjoyable experience.”

“The cooking class for bacon-wrapped dates, garlic shrimp, and paella is a very good one. Class provides good recipes and we have pretty of opportunities in preparing and cooking the food. The results come out great and they taste delicious.”

“Found this place today while walking around and this is such an amazing shop. Beautiful handmade items and my dad and I purchased alot from here. Very sweet people work here and I highly recommend!!!”

“1000% The best hidden gem clothing store in Palo Alto. I was getting clothes for my grandmother and I stopped by this interesting store. I went inside and noticed the amazing jewelry and sacred Tibetan crystals being sold for 10$ a pound. The ambiance was amazing and you can smell the incense rushing through your nostrils. If you go deeper into the store, you can find handmade colorful shirts and pillows. They are so cute and fluffy and they cost so little! The store is very humble, and the owner is playing Himalayan music on the speakers at low volume. 10/10 recommend for people visiting Palo Alto.”

“Returning customer for the hand made exotic porcelain ornaments pieces. The owners have great tastes an and always give you a friendly greeting. They also did a solid job at wrapping up the delicates with bubble wraps. Since I’m a returning customer, Abi and Armond also gave me a friends discount with a beautiful gift box. Overall, this place not only has amazing rugs but also super cool home decoration pieces. Staff members are very helpful.”

“I can't believe I never stopped in before! It's a tiny blink-and-you-miss-it storefront, and inside it's packed to the gills with adorable gifts and goodies. I picked up some stationery, but you could also get a little RGB doll or some nifty inventive kitchenware.”

“Beautiful display of luxury bedding, it's along the same aesthetic and colors used by another Italian label (clothing) Brunello Cucinelli, very simple, classic, neutrals with ultra fine material and stitching.

Our daughter has purchased 2 bedding sets for us so far and we always anticipate the new season's selections to browse. The sets we have are gorgeous!

I do wish Frette would have some very delicate patterned bedding in pale colors like they've had in past years for those of us who like a slight something in design. Can't always remain the Hamptons aesthetic as we like change every so often and with seasons.”

“I'm a freshman in college and wandered into Hudson Grace looking for a flower vase. I was asking a girl out on a date and wanted to make a small flower arrangement. The two women working the store (I didn't catch their names) not only gave me a display vase for free but spent over 15 minutes showing me how to arrange a flower display. They cut off the rose stems, showed me which leaves to remove, and helped arrange the flowers in the vase. It was one of the kindest gestures I have ever received.Update: she said yes! I'll definitely be returning for some candles :)”

“We had such a wonderful experience working with our Designer, Aubree Grider at Crate & Barrel. My husband and I were looking for a sofa for our new home, and Aubree greeted us with a big smile and made us feel welcomed right away.

She was incredibly patient, friendly, and helpful throughout the entire process. We never felt pressured to move forward, which made the experience feel comfortable and enjoyable. Aubree is truly the epitome of great customer service.

She even stopped by our home with large fabric samples so we could see everything in our space, and she put together beautiful mood boards with thoughtful design suggestions and furniture ideas. She has been so responsive, communicative, and genuinely helpful every step of the way.

We can’t wait to continue the design process with Aubree. If you’re shopping at Crate & Barrel, ask for her!”

“Our first visit to this newly opened restaurant at the rooftop of the new Restoration Hardware store at the Stanford Mall. Beautiful Ambiance and Views of Hoover Tower. We had brought our own wines Kistler Chardonnay and Rhys Pinot. We started off with the Prosciutto and Delice charcuterie board which seemed a little skimpy for the price. We shared two salads Chinese Chicken ( which was great )and Mulholland Drive Salad. We shared the RibEye steak which was excellent and the Broiled Salmon which was also great but no sides. So we had to add on Grilled Corn and Grilled Broccolini and Truffled Fries. For desert we shared a Banana Split which was good and house made cookies which were served warm and were great. Hannah our server was very good but was covering a lot of tables Food was very good but the menu is very limited so don’t know how often I can go before I run out of dishes to try”

“I had a wonderful experience at Urban Outfitters today. I came twice but the overall experience was so good.
A staff member named Melina (I hope I spelled her name correctly) was incredibly helpful, friendly, and kind. She patiently helped me resolve an issue and made the entire experience smooth and pleasant.
Because of her help, this location is definitely one I would prioritize coming back to. She truly made me want to shop at this Urban Outfitters more. Thank you so much!”

“One of the best DWRs, I came in dressed like a scrub but they didn’t judge and treated me like a valued customer.

Coleman and Nasim were very helpful in offering design advice and product insights I did not have (designers, history of the product… very cool)”

“Ann made it very easy to create a nursery that I loved. She was communicative, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. She always responded quickly, answered questions thoroughly, and consistently offered assistance whenever needed. Working with her made the experience enjoyable and stress-free, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for help designing a beautiful nursery.”
