“The store is fairly large with extensive collection of each category. Currently the store added many different options and ideas for gift or gourmet foods for the holiday season. The prices are reasonable and staff is friendly. There is plenty of parking at the Solana beach store”
“This Marshalls in Solana Beach is one of the better locations I've visited. It's a large, well-stocked, and organized store with a good variety of merchandise. The staff were friendly and helpful, and one associate spent several minutes assisting my wife in finding a couple of items she was looking for. I browsed the men's and kitchen sections and was impressed with the selection and quality. I even found a couple of All-Clad frying pans that tempted me, but fortunately I remembered I already owned something similar! My wife had better luck and found several clothing items she liked. Overall, we had a very positive shopping experience and would gladly stop here again when we're in the area.”
“Home Goods is my happy place. So fun to find wonderful things for your home. Also has great gifts and snacks. Top quality merchandise at affordable prices. My husband also enjoys going with me.”
“Four Marshalls, 5 days! After finding a sweater I loved at Marshalls Solana Beach - but only in my size in 1 of 3 colors - I visited three other Marshalls over the next few days in the hopes I'd luck out there. Carmel Mountain was the worst, little selection, they'd never seen the sweater (which is prominently featured right now at SB). Some things must be saved for certain stores. La Jolla Village Square had more of the sweater (an Anne Klein short-sleeved top) - but sadly, still not in my size in the color I needed. So I headed over to Marshall's Mira Mesa. The selection there was smaller than SB or LJVS... BUT it was extremely well-organized and there were friendly staff. The checkout line was the fastest! And I did find one sweater I liked that was different. AND they had sunglasses, which out of the other stores only SB had (& no sunglasses I liked). So I scored a cute $19.99 sweater for work; a cute pair of French Connection sunglasses for $9.99 - and then some Bad Girl Bang blue mascara (which I think is discontinued) for $9.99. So here: Selection 3.5 (not huge but some good stuff), Customer Service 5, Checkout 5! Glad to know this store is way better than Carmel Mountain Plaza - and it's certainly fast to shop in because it's not huge and stuff was laid out well.”
“In preparation for a big life transition, my daughter and I booked a consultation with Heather Irwin, at Nordstrom UTC. Our experience with Heather was exceptional. She had prepared in advance for our visit, she listened carefully to what my daughter wanted, she guided us around the departments to get to know our preferences and to make some suggestions. When my daughter was trying everything on, she gave us time to make choices, she was there to support us without any type of pressure to purchase items. We loved all of the items we found and left with a great selection for my daughter’s capsule wardrobe. We couldn’t have done it without Heather! We really appreciate her and will definitely be back in the future.”
“This location is great! I tend to come here twice a week and all the employees are amazing. Specially, the manager named Alicia! She’s always very kind and helpful and knows how to do her job professionally. I do have one complaint, though the Christine elder lady needs to have more patience, be kinder, And learn how to do her job a little better.”
“I always have a fun shopping experience here! They have a fantastic selection of clothes and home goods at great prices. It’s a bit of a treasure hunt every time, and I always leave with something special.”
“I would just like to say the customer service in the fishing section to get a fishing license was absolutely amazing A very nice gentleman named Mo helped me out and he was super informative and very kind one of the best experiences ever he was amazing”
“Soheila helped us at checkout and was a pleasure to deal with. She has a fun, genuine personality and made sure we were well taken care of before we left. Really appreciate the great service and would be happy to have her help us again. Macy’s is lucky to have her!”
“Came here when they were about to close on Wednesday June 10th and the team was very helpful and did not make me feel rushed whatsoever. The young lady with the glasses even brought out different suggestions along with the ones I had originally picked out and I ended up going with one of the suggested pairs instead! She was very helpful and this was my first time at this location they deserved a review”
“Excellent store. Very competitive price and varied of items. Visited multiple times during my tenure at San Diego. Purchased shoe, purse, dress materials at very very competitive price. Name of store is worth of it's brand value.”
“A very clean and organized location. They have a friendly staff who are always eager to help. I prefer to shop inside to touch and feel produce and clothes.”
“I'm traveling to NYC this week. I went in for some last minute shopping. They had so options for fun shoes and outfits. I found a really unique dress and a pair of walking sandals. I can always count on Nordstrom Rack for something special!”
“I absolutely love Target, from shopping to returns (when needed), the entire experience is always smooth and pleasant. Compared to other retail stores in the area, this location stands out. The employees are friendly, approachable, and genuinely helpful, which makes every visit more enjoyable. The store is also very clean and well-organized, with a more open layout that makes it feel even more spacious than other locations I’ve been to.”
“Great idea...,.putting an Amazon locker in store up front by registers. Easy access and quick, no line. While I'm at Ross, I might as well look around in there too.”
“It is so incredibly stocked up - I’ve never seen a target this stocked up before! Neat and clean Was only visiting but Ended up getting few things Used self- check out And there was one person ready to assist - It’s Target! Wish it was there when I went there ??♀️”
“Lynn Rivera did such a nice job with her customer service. She went above and beyond, helping me to find clothes and helping me with assistance for the fitting room”
“This Five Below location is great except they've had the back part of the store blocked off for quite a while since November of 2022 since the store opened and the location is almost always out of stock of things and has the same item selection but other than that I really love Five Below you can find things under 5 dollars and upper and service her is great except they close the self checkouts and people have to assist you checking out which I don't understand why if it's self-checkout!”
“Oh, Macy's is the bomb dot com! I absolutely love shopping there. They have the latest fashion trends, awesome deals, and a huge variety of products. Plus, their customer service is top-notch. It's always a fun and exciting experience to shop at Macy's!”
“Good little store for students. Not the Target most know and love, but a niche store that has the basics of what students need. HOW TO FIND THE TARGET On Russell Lane there's a parking structure for your car. 9500 Gilman SHARES WITH ALL THE STORES. GOOGLE NEEDS AN ADDRESS AND WILL NOT CHANGE IT EVEN WITH REQUEST (anyone can submit an edit I tried twice.) From Russell Lane walk up and turn LEFT once you reach the end of the sidewalk. WALK STRAIGHT. PASS the statue. Pass the bookstore. REACH THE TARGET.”
