19640 Ventura Blvd, Tarzana“What's not to love about Barnes and Noble? Just the waft of ink and paper when you walk in the door tingles your brain a bit. Then the scent of fresh brewed coffee makes you feel right at home. As convenient as online retailers can be, it can't beat the kinesthetic quality of a brick and mortar institution that brings people together in search of something interesting to read and experience.”
“I purchased a few Pokemon box sets here. They had quite an impressive variety to choose from. The gentlemen who helped me were very kind and had a great sense of humor. Very satisfied.”
“I just really love this Hobby shop. It feels like another home. I've been coming here for so long with my brother since 1980 . Even if I'm in the neighborhood, I'll stop by 2, look around, and buy some things. It's just a really cool neat place. very highly recommended to stop by. so much history.”
“You know those crappy comic book shops where either some n*** with the social aptitude of a walnut is behind the counter or some kid who could care less about life and neither of them even acknowledge you when you walk in? We Can Be Heroes is the exact opposite. Julio and his team created a super fun atmosphere where passion, exploration, collecting and the thrill of the hunt all come together for an awesome comic experience. These guys have all the new issues, mountains of back issues, a ton of $1 comics, slabs, toys, collectibles, Funko pops and more. Plus they have an attached location called Ground Control if Pokemon cards and gaming are your jam. Not to mention these guys have the best live claim sale on Instagram. Make sure to check it out @wecanbeheroescomics every Wed at 8 PST”
“I am house sitting for a friend in Pacific Palisades and needed to get supplies for the numerous bird feeders around the property. I was directed to Wild Birds Unlimited. I am so pleased to give this business an outstanding review not only for the quality and availability of products. Also for their outstanding customer service. The store employee, Julie, was extremely knowledgeable, full of suggestions and ideas, and very helpful. Julie, did not make me feel rushed or that she didn't have the time. Not only that but she helped to carry my purchases to the car. I can tell you, while I lived in Morro Bay, CA one would be hard pressed to get service let alone help to one's car. It should be noted, the parking lot, for this store is behind the store off of Centinela. I am very pleased with this business and will continue to be a customer for my own aviary needs as well as for my friends home in the”
“I wish they sold yugioh stuff but their selection of pokemon, magic, and D&D books and figures were great. The staff was also really friendly. Dice a little expensive but I saw a set that had tiny seals in them so I can't complain.”
“Very friendly place and very competent staff.The gaming meetups are amazing from what i saw. Lots of place to play.Possibly the best store I have been to so far.”
“We have been working with Standing Bear's Trading Post for at least the past 15-20 years. The quality of leather they provide is amazing and Sandi Howling Wolf Lightfoot is always easy to work with. I will 100% support this small business over any other large corporation trying to sell leather and leather supplies.”

Customer service is outstanding. I especially want to thank Joe for always helping make decisions about bird feeders and food, and for being so kind in helping me carry stuff to my car. He really went the extra mile. I love coming here! Really recommend this store to everyone!”
“Traditions Christmas Shoppe is the absolute best place for Decorations. Especially Halloween. Even though it's called a Christmas Shoppe, it has all Holiday Decorations. Many Vintage, which I love. I placed an order over the phone. Their merchandise is superior. Well made, very detailed and arrives at your door quickly. The Associates that take your order are always nice & go out of their way to help you. I will shopping at Traditions often. It's also a Family Business. It's all good. Great place for Decorations.”

3375 Motor Ave, Los Angeles“Nice little studio! Came for the group pottery class and we had a good time. 90 mins class for $65 per person! There is a small lot and a few meter parking spots on the street. Would recommend wearing something you wouldn't mind getting messy. And for the ladies, you might need a hair tie!”

14006 Riverside Dr Unit 66, Sherman Oaks“We really like visiting this store whenever we're at Fashion Square because of all the samples they have on display. Today we bought a really cool toy and Alexander at the register was extremely friendly. We're already looking forward to returning for Christmas shopping! ?”
“I love this store! There are so few like it left in this Amazon world we live in, and their prices are so reasonable! They've been around forever, and I was so grateful they survived COVID. They have a little bit of everything and provide services like knife and scissor sharpening and they making keys as well - you can't even get keys made at Home Depot anymore - in this age of service-less stores, they now have a machine and you have to do it yourself - which may or may not work. The people at Knife Trader are so fair and honest that when I brought my cuticle scissors in for sharpening, they told me they didn't even need it! They could easily have just done it and charged me and I never would have known the difference. It's a blessing when you get to deal with good, kind, honest people. I highly recommend this neighborhood gem!”
“I like this store. I just don't like that theirs always one cashier. They have self checkouts, but the customers wait in a long line, and when you go to a self checkout, you get told something by the customers. So I think employees should say. Hey, if you're paying with a card, go right ahead .”

“He who sins in one way sins in all other ways, how? It is like a person who spits in the wind and it goes back into their face and in other directions, there is a cause and effect for all even in chaos, even in the chaos of our sin.”
“I came in looking for a new servo for my lasernut and within 2 mins he had what I needed. The one cool thing about the owner is he encourages you to put the part in yourself. Which is pretty cool and I’m only going to moto styles instead of EHobbyHouse.”
“This place is the best ever. Conner and Jack are super good people. They also give you a free card for first time there.They open packs with you and this is the best card shop ever.I recommend this place.”
