“I had an amazing experience at TJ Maxx thanks to Harleen and fellow cashiers, she personally helped me find everything I was looking for, she is sweet, and patient. Will be shopping at this location more”
“Great place to shop for your groceries. This store has a large selection of a variety of foods. The store managers, staff are respectful, courtesy and very helpful.”
“Easily the best grocery store in the area. I’ve been here dozens of times and have never thought to leave a review, but had to today after having Laura check us out at the registers. To say she goes above and beyond is an understatement. The attention to detail, the thoughtfulness, just an all around wonderful person. She deserves all the recognition!”
“A man named Ron helped me much on 2/23/2026! He helped me find a rug that my wife wanted me to purchase. The inventory is great. The quality of the rug is high. An evident manager was alert to my need at the beginning, and he had Ron assist me. The cashier was excellent as well! Our living room is improved, thanks to Home Sense in Columbia, Maryland. The store's setting and cleanliness are important to us as customers, and the staff delivered all!”
“Was really unhappy that my brand new bag had some dents in the leather and was missing the dust bag when I got home. I turned around and went all the way back to return it. Keya exchanged it for me and wrapped the new one and put it in the dust bag as it should be with a bag purchase. Presentation and care of the bag is part of a good service. I was very satisfied afterall because of her and will seek her out in the future. She turned my whole day around :)”
“I had a gift card for the store but I had to walk around a lot to find something to buy. The line was veryyyyy long to pay. It started from the outside of the aisle. They did have a lot of Halloween displays in the aisle so that while you are waiting for the cashiers you can get something. Good PR marketing strategy. I must say that they had a lot of cashiers ready by the time I was able to pay for the 2 pumpkin Fall Halloween candles.”
“There was an issue with my self pick up online order first time didn't get help but when I went back second time it was resolved quickly. I dont know her name but very good customer service!”
“I love this place . Nina is not only a great cashier but also a valuable team member who helps wherever needed. She assists customers, supports coworkers, and always maintains a friendly and professional attitude. Her hard work and dedication make the store run smoothly.”
“This is a smaller store, but I always like to go and check things out to see what they have. Most items advertised online are out of stock or not at this location. But it's convenient for me, close to home.”
“A gentleman named Matthew helped me out with a big favor. He works in Amazon department. I accidentally returned two items instead of one. Matthew used patience, understanding and great customer service to help me out. Not only did he find the item, he continue helping other customers and did an amazing job problem solving where I had no idea what to do. Thank you Matthew, Amazon has a great employee on their hands.”
“This is my wife's favorite store to go. With all variety of goods she may spend hours there. And yesterday we received the best customer service ever. The associate named Raj went above and beyond helping us loading our item to our car. We had some trouble loading it and I was about to return the item. Raj tried different ways to load and then came up with a brilliant approach. He spent good deal of time helping us and provided caution advices for our trip home. We really appreciate your help!”
“Marshall's in Columbia usually have a better selection of clothes for plus-size women. If they had more stylish dresses, instead of long and drab looking Little House on the Prairie dresses, I would give this location a 5 star rating. The jewelry had some pieces that I purchased and been complimented on. I usually can find a pair or two in a size 11 shoe but not this time.”

“I had the pleasure of shopping at the Columbia Mall JCPenney store on June 30th. I wanted to give a shout out to two exemplary employees who were working in the men’s department that morning, Sinaa and Jenni. I was greeted pleasantly by Sinaa upon entering the store and her positive demeanor was much appreciated. I was then assisted by Jenni who without hesitation helped to find a shirt and made helpful suggestions. An average trip to the mall was made so special that day because of these two employees. You are both much appreciated!!”
“I came in to grab a few items and walked out with not only my items, but a huge smile. Let’s start with Larissa. The store was super busy but she made me feel as if I were her only guest. Larissa is pleasant and very knowledgeable. There was also another wonderful associate, Rosa. She also took time to make sure I was assisted. I needed a manager and Elvis appeared. He completed my amazing experience by being just as kind. His aim was to please, and he did that. I’ll definitely be back!!”
“I’ve bought mainly from their coffee sections, snacks, and bathroom decor. They have a good variety of items and I especially enjoy the coffee and browsing their clearance section. On a recent visit, I was particularly impressed by a store associate, Keisha, who showed such warm, refreshing, and personable customer service to multiple customers, including myself. At the register, Keisha and I ended up having a passionate discussion about Dubai Chocolate and next thing you know I’m leaving the store with Dubai chocolate! (by ForEva chocolate). And the chocolate was excellent. Moments like this is what makes shopping interesting and fun. Thanks Keisha! Parking is easy! Overall, I’d recommend!”
“The Columbia Nordstrom Rack is always super clean and the staff is very helpful. I managed to find my 2 year old granddaughter a short set by DKNY for $11. Great deal! Of course I coped it.”
“This store was spotless. Like it just opened. Inventory galore. I only came for a few specific items but wish I had allotted more time. I will go back. The coupon situation is unbelievable if you've never shopped here. Friendly staff.”
“I have encountered the best and most efficient customer service at the TX Max located at 3411 Fort Meade Road-Laurel, MD 20724. Sering C is an exceptional worker and valuable to TJ Max business-Thanks Sering C. Pleased Customer BH”
“Ghada was great , she helped me out with everything. My dad went through chemotherapy and I bought something for him to help him with his foot and he loved it. She needs to raise. Kathy does too and everybody else in nerves working hard. Keep up the great Work Ghada. everyone there needs a raise”
“Love Macys, especually if ypu can bisit on a non holiday date so it is not too crowded. Had to ask directions and ibfornation from staff at least 5 times all interactions were great. Kudos to the team.”
“Had a great experience with Nada. She was super attentive and was patient with my questions about male fragrances. She gave other customers the same level of attention as well. No pressure and allowed me to make my decisions. Great recommendations...she knew her priducts. Thank you Nada!”
“This is another store that is technically attached to the mall, but you need to go outside in order to access it. Best to just move your car and save yourself the hassle.I came here in search of some items that I didn't seem to have because of my recent move. Honestly, I had nothing in mind when I walked in here, but of course I found something. Like every single other person that walks in here, you end up with something.I do have to say, compared to the neighboring, similar store, this one is much more organized, and appears much cleaner. Although you can never predict what stock they have they were well stocked with what they did actually have. I did a lot of browsing and ended up with things that I knew I wanted but not necessarily needed.Check out was a breeze and pleasant. The staff were polite and made sure to take care of items purchased.”
“I really like this pharmacy. For 2 years I was required to use CVS which was always painful with the long lines and hardly ever opening the second register. No one knows you and the service is unfriendly. I’m very happy to be back with Wegmans where the staff is always friendly.”
“I like Marshall, but some are very different from the others, I don't understand why... some have better quality things than others... but I love this store.”
“It was exceptional because I came to get Perdue chicken thigh but only found one pack, we approached a staff by name Ileana working in a different department, she went above and beyond to get the quantity of chicken thigh for us. That made our shopping a wonderful experience. Thanks Ileana”
“Large target not a super one. Clean aisles and it’s connected to the mall. They have plenty of car pick up spots. Starbucks is inside and everything was in stock”
“Store is very clean, as see other people saying it was very dirty but it isn’t so. They have a decent amount of selection of everything from fresh produce to everyday items including snacks, linens, camping essentials. Their vegan options are more than other small stores like Aldi. Some products which are expired or close by are on heavy mark down prices. In my opinion it’s an amazing thing to do as it prevents the products to go bad! I saw noodles for 1cent/pack (closer to expiry) which is like giving it all away for free! Staff is very polite and helpful. I don’t know about the bargain, so I can’t say anything about it! Their coffee selection is great, if you’re a coffee lover do check it out! Some of the pasta sauces and jellies you don’t easily find in another stores!”
“This Target is one of the better locations in the DC area. It is always well stocked and is not as expensive as the DC Target locations. I would recommend this Target to all of the college students as well as the local community members.”
