“This is the best comic store I’ve ever been to. You won’t find a better manga selection around unless you drive all the way out to the Barnes & Noble at The Grove or the Santa Monica Mitsuwa. The manga section here has kept me busy enough for the last few years that I’m basically only just now started to buy from the comics selections. There’s a great selection of books here both things I’ve heard of and that I’ve never heard of before but took a chance on and liked. The rewards program is solid. They’ve got two sweet shop cats. What’s not to like? There’s not a ton of parking in the lot but the store itself is a great size and you can always park in the neighboring grocery lot across the street and use the crosswalk so it’s super easy and then on your way back you can get some coldstone. I love coming to this store and I hope it’s around for many years to come”
“Retro Respawn is a fantastic spot for anyone who loves retro gaming, collectibles, and trading cards. The store has an awesome selection of classic video games, consoles, and memorabilia, plus a great variety of trading cards for collectors and players alike. Everything is well organized, and it's easy to spend a lot of time browsing through the inventory.
The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They were helpful in answering questions and made the whole experience enjoyable. Whether you're hunting for a rare retro game, adding to your trading card collection, or just looking for a nostalgic trip down memory lane, Retro Respawn is definitely worth a visit. Great selection, fair prices, and excellent customer service. Highly recommended!”
“As the author of The Grant Colson Thriller Series and SERA Archives thriller novels, I always enjoy visiting standout bookstores, and Barnes & Noble in Calabasas at The Commons is a beautiful location.
The store has a strong two-story design with escalators leading up to the second level. The layout feels open and inviting, with a warm interior that makes it easy to settle in and spend time browsing.
One of the standout features is the manga section. It’s large and well stocked, and it really draws attention when you walk through. The mystery and thriller wall is also nicely set up, with a good range of titles and a clean presentation.
The café is a great space, with a mural of famous authors that adds character and makes it a comfortable place to sit and read. I always enjoy seeing my own book on the shelf here, which adds a personal touch to the visit.
The surrounding Commons area is upscale and well maintained, and parking is fairly easy with plenty of space available.
I also spent some time in the romance section while working on The Maui Desire Romance Series, and it’s a well-organized area that fits nicely alongside the rest of the store.
Overall, it’s a bright, welcoming Barnes & Noble in Calabasas with a great layout, strong selection, and a comfortable atmosphere that makes it easy to come back.”
“Called into make sure book of choice was available. Clerk held it at checkout desk.
Drove right up, got street parking, and was back at home in record time. Very friendly staff on the phone and also at the checkout desk.”
“I was here last weekend for the PSA event, and this place was solid. It’s more than just a regular comic shop. They have comics, toys, TCG stuff, and enough space to actually host events without it feeling thrown together. The shop had a good collector vibe, and it felt like a place built for people who are really into the hobby, not just casual browsing.
The PSA event was the main reason I went, and I appreciated having something like that available locally instead of having to deal with everything by mail. Overall, cool shop, good setup, and definitely a place I’d come back to for comics, cards, or future events.”
“Great place to find some crazy bootleg/custom action figures,& Dov will usually deal with you. I highly recommend checking out what's in stock. It's always changing. You might just find something as cool as this killerbootlegs/Czarface figure I got!”

“Employees here are very helpful and nice. We've been here several times with little kids that run around and instead of being annoyed, they engage with the kids. They also help us find minifig parts were looking for.”
“Great selection of action figures and collectibles with really good prices. The staff is knowledgeable and super helpful. This is My 14yo son's favorite store.”
“Bearcave is decent it used to be called Njoy a few years back but this place stays with product and tournaments. Its on a main street so I would always take the bus on a Sunday for the OPTCG tourneys. Recently, I won the Union Arena Rare battle for One Punch Man and the prizing was solid. Also, when releases happen, they are pretty fair on the pricing for MSRP.”
“Took our daughter here to do her first birthday bear and it was a great experience! The young ladies that were working here were very kind and very helpful! We will definitely be back!”
“This is a HUGE toy store! So awesome. It is air conditioned inside, which was perfect on a hot day. They have a wide selection of different types of toys for all ages of babies, toddlers, kids, teens, and even adults (for example, I collect Hotwheels)! I will definitely be back. Super cool store.”
“Well organized educational toys.
I like that they have toy samples throughout the store.
Kind and engaging staff!
Will definitely be back😍”
“the best place to buy everything cool unusual and cute from babies to dads and besties! i cant go in and just buy one thing, there is so much to choose from in the tiny store! i go there for every occasion! it is easy to shop! the owner Angela is so helpful and amazing!”
“One of the few Official OG Sanrio Stores! The store has very cute window displays and a lot of unique items to choose from. I chose a Gund X Sanrio Caffe Latte Blindbox. If you ever need a cheer up, pick out something cute from here. Loved getting the official bag as well ???”
“Great customer service, friendly and informative. Store is on the smaller side but is fully stocked and well organized. Could use a bigger PAB wall but that might not be possible for the square footage of the location, with that said the items available were great.”

“Five Stars Aren’t Enough! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We celebrated my daughter’s eighth birthday on Saturday, May 24th at the American Girl store in Los Angeles, and let me just say—this party was the Super Bowl of doll birthdays. We pulled up in a party bus (because why not make Barbie jealous?) and were immediately met with top-tier service and smiles that could light up a dollhouse.
Winnie, our personal shopper, was a total rockstar—imagine a fairy godmother with retail superpowers. She helped the girls each pick out their dream American Girl doll. My mother and I even purchased one for our selves! ? I got the cutest baby boy and mom, of course chose a historical doll. Winnie made each of us feel like the main character in a sparkly girl drama series!
Eddie, our server, was a food-and-fun ninja. He managed to serve the kids, the dolls, and the excited parents without breaking a sweat. Bonus points for his patience with six little giggling voices requesting refills and cake (the cake was absolutely gorgeous and delicious) at the same time!
And then there was Gabrielle—our party planner and hairstylist extraordinaire. She wrangled bows, braids, and birthday magic like a pro. If party planning were an Olympic sport, she’d be on the podium, gold medal in one hand, curling iron in the other.
Everything—from the birthday cake to the party favors-were handled with care, creativity, and genuine warmth. The girls felt like VIPs and so did their dolls (who now all want a return trip, of course).
Thank you to the whole team for making our daughter’s day unforgettable. If you’re looking for a party that will blow tiny socks off (and leave you with the cutest Instagram pics ever), this is the place.”

“Everything that you can imagine is perfect. The only thing is that I honestly think that the prices are a little bit too high. I still love it. (I bought that plushie)”
“Great Experience at Five Below!
Kaitlyn was absolutely amazing during my visit. She was extremely helpful, very kind, and went out of her way to make sure I found exactly what I needed. Her positive attitude and friendliness made the whole experience better. Customer service like hers truly stands out, and she represents Five Below very well. Thank you, Katlyn, for being so great!”
“Picked up a great deal on a Japanese keychain here, plus love the Squishmallow and Beanie Babies selection. Wait time to checkout could use a little improvement (I think they need more staff) but I don't feel it warrants removing a star ?”
“Great place I love it! Awesome action figures I am an OG there I have been going since 2017 but I have seen it grow for so long and it went from Pokemon and mostly cards. To awesome anime figures and much more cooler things. The store owner is always there he's the coolest. Me and my dad still go to this day just not as frequently unfortunately. We're busy. ? However, when I go it's an incredibly treat.”
“If you’re a collector, Chalice Collectibles is a must-visit. The customer service is outstanding, the selection is impressive, and the prices are great. You can tell they truly care about collectors and the community. Always a great experience!”
“Auntie Barbara's kids is a great stop. I have been shopping there for years and have always found the staff to be friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I drive from Newport Beach because they have such unusual things. When ever I give a gift from Auntie Barbara's it is always well received because it is simply put unique and beautiful. They have a large selection or both boys and girls clothes that happen to be adorable. I took my granddaughter there and she thought it was the best store ever. The staff was very polite and engaging with her and she felt like a grown-up shopping. She can't wait to go back. Today when so many stores lack customer service, this store gives great customer service. Their recommendations are always spot on. If you're looking for a quality gift this is the place. Don't let some of the negative reviews cause you not to go. This is definitely a gem. My one wish was that it was closer to me!!!”

“I absolutely love this GameStop! The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and always ready to help find the latest games or collectibles. Every visit feels like a mini adventure, and I always leave excited about my next gaming experience!”
“I just want to share the excellent and truly grateful experience I had today at the Five Below store in Granada Hills.
Yesterday, while I was about to get gas, I realized I didn’t have my wallet with me. I searched everywhere—at home and at work—but couldn’t find it. Later, I remembered that I had visited the Granada Hills Five Below on Wednesday evening.
This morning, I called the store and asked if they could check to see if someone had turned in a Hello Kitty wallet. The person who answered, Stephanie, was incredibly kind and helpful. She asked me to hold while she checked, and shortly after, she confirmed they had my wallet safely stored.
I can’t express enough how much I appreciate that my wallet was kept safe. Inside were my work credit cards, personal debit cards, Universal Member Pass, and some cash—and everything was still there.
Five Below has always been one of my favorite stores, but now the Granada Hills location is officially my favorite! Special thanks to Stephanie for her kindness, professionalism, and truly great customer care.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!”
“Great shop love coming here and they have very knowledgeable & kind employees. Their prices might be a little high but ive seen higher at other stores. At the end of the day if they have Pokemon they can sell at whatever price they want. Dont get discouraged because of the ratings are, surly they’re fake. Owner and employees are very genuine.”
