Walked in and greeted immediately by Bernie. He helped me decide on the right tennis shoe and gave the a few pros and cons of others. The woman behind the counter is cute and very personable which I loved. Loved the welcome and didn't feel out of place especially being new to the sport and knowing zero about shoes and what they need to feel like. I never felt like a burden for asking questions and will definitely come back here if I need anything tennis related!

If you're in San Diego and looking for anything tennis (or pickleball) related, go to Ray's! Whatever level of tennis you play, the staff can help you with your tennis gear needs. I recently purchased a racket here and enjoyed my overall experience from the recommendations, to the opportunity to test the racket in the back, to the peace of mind knowing that Ray's will match prices on Tennis Warehouse site.

Ray's Tennis Shop is a friendly family-owned shop in Hillcrest. They are very friendly and helpful for all levels of Tennis. Not only do they serve tennis players but they also have pickleball, padel, and racquetball equipment at the ready. The shop features a large range of tennis rackets, strings, balls, clothes, bags, and accessories. It has everything you need to up your tennis game! I came in for some tennis stringing and inquired about a specific string that I wanted to get on my racket they did not have it but for good reason, apparently it's been known to cause a lot of damage to people's arms. They were very helpful and helped guide me to a different pair of strings that fit my needs and were of better comfort. The stringing and price were very reasonable and comparable to other places. It was done quickly and very well-done. This is a great spot for your tennis needs and this will be my go-to spot from now on!

I came in knowing nothing about tennis, but on a mission to buy a retirement gift for my boss. Not only did they make me feel comfortable, they listened to everything that I needed in the racket and even gave recommendations based on the profile I gave of my boss. I would recommend this store to anyone looking for an amazing tennis store that covers just about everything tennis!

Best tennis shop and stringer in town. Good deals that beat tennis warehouse or others. Helpful for beginners, and advanced players can count of having rackets matched or having quality stringing.

Great shop!! Family owned for years, the owner and adult daughter are very knowledgeable about everything tennis. They helped me find a tennis racquet to fit me and my skill level, they string racquets for a fee. They have a great selection of racquets, mostly high end racquets for intermediate to advanced players. They have apparel and tennis shoes for men, women and children. They have a practice wall in the back to try out the racquets. The store has a large selection of tennis merchandise in a small location, therefore, it’s a bit hard to move around as it’s pretty packed with inventory, especially if there’s other customers shopping, that’s probably the only con about this place. Highly recommend for all of your tennis needs, it’s a one stop shop with very knowledgeable staff.

I was scanning the web for tennis shoes. Other than looks and product descriptions, it's hard to tell what I really need. Roger REALLY knows the products and worked with me to get the best fit and match for my level. We talked about my surgery and limitations while testing racquets and he basically gave me a mini lesson to compensate. I swung some demos and picked up a great deal.

The best place to get your racket strung. So much wisdom and knowledge about all types of strings and rackets. Replaced an old grip and now my racket looks good as new!

My kids are starting up tennis, and it's been a few years since I picked up a racket, so I took them here to ask a few questions and get some advice. The gentleman was nice, asked a few questions, grabbed a few rackets, and we started hitting some balls in the back room. After 10 minutes, I grabbed something that my kids could grow into and wasn't crazy expensive. No pressure, just good advice. Great experience.

First time purchasing from Ray's and it went very smoothly!I've been looking for the Wilson Ultra Backpack to match my Ultra v3.0 racquet for some time. After seeing it sell out from most of the larger retailers, I found it available at Ray's for a very competitive price. Went ahead and purchased it, and it was shipped to my home outside of Chicago, arriving in a timely manner.I'm now in the market for a new pair of hard-court shoes, and I wouldn't then purchase from Ray's!

I placed an online order from this place, and never got any update after the initial confirmation, couldn't get hold of the service through the phone or email, 3 weeks went by, still no delivery, and no updates. I wouldn't recommend this place, at least not for online ordering.
