“The first time I came here was about a year ago-- I am from the US. I followed them on IG and loved all the different kinds of stock they get, plus they are one of the few blind box stores with around 19.1K followers on social media so I was eager to see what the hype was about.
Their assortment of boxes is great! Lots of variety. Prices aren't horrible either. The shop is very bright and colorful. The boxes were all displayed and stacked neatly. I noticed a lot of the reviews complained about the cigarette scent- I didn't smell it at all. I particularly love their artist alley in the back half of the store. A great way to support small businesses/artists by buying their merch, etc. I will say the back half of the store (artist alley) is quite messy and a bit disorganized.
I knocked down a point mainly due to customer service. I've been here a total of two times. The first time I received little to no customer service- not even a hi welcome in. Same thing with this most recent visit almost a year later. Coincidentally it was the same female staff worker both times who checked me out. She seemed very stand-offish and a bit intimidating to be honest lol. I would ask about trading because I'm not exactly sure how the intricacies of the trading community/how their store runs besides the selling of blind boxes, and her response made me feel silly for asking like I should've known the answer.
I hate to make a deal out of customer service as it seems like most people who have reviewed didn't have this issue. Perhaps it was just bad luck with the this particular staff both times. But as someone who has worked in customer service before, it's something that can really make a shopping experience memorable.”
“Ordered a gift of two bottles of wine for a dear friends birthday. Unfortunately my friend was at an appt when it was delivered the driver left it with a a close neighbour and texted me a photo and name of the person he left it with. Also recieved a lovely message from Alex in customer service as well. Customer service was excellent and with care my first time experience is quite positive. I highly recommend Vyno to you all. Enjoy the day.”
“Great place! The customer service here is absolutely amazing! They have plenty of great options and with amazing pricing for the outstanding quality of their treats. Absolutely worth every dollar spent and my girlfriend loved the gifts I bought here. The quality of the freshness and taste of the fruit, specifically the chocolate dipped strawberries is second to none! Will definitely come back!”
“Very quiet & cute little store with an actual wide selection of toys and lifestyle items. Every time me and my friends visit, we always find cute matching charms. I recently got a great deal of Nest Design beddings during Black Friday sale and the staff was so kind to help me carry all the things to my car. Thank you so much!”
“Amazing experience every time! I’ve ordered from different Edible Arrangements locations and they’re consistently great. The fruit is fresh, the presentation is gorgeous, and everything comes perfectly packed. Fast and reliable delivery too!”

“Just bought my first watch (Tissot PRX) from this store. Super smooth transaction, sales lady I worked with was very friendly. I was probably in and out of the store in less than 10 min, wallet a little bit lighter but with a beautiful watch on my wrist. I'm sorry other people didn't have as good of a time as I did, but I would definitely recommend this dealer.”
“I had a wonderful experience with Marya at Dana Jordan! I visited to pick up a housewarming gift for my friend, and Marya was incredibly helpful throughout the process. She took the time to guide me, made sure I found the perfect gift, and even wrapped it so beautifully. Her gift wrapping was amazing and added such a special touch. I truly appreciate her kindness, professionalism, and attention to detail. Highly recommend Dana Jordan for anyone looking for thoughtful gifts and excellent customer service!”
“Got passport photos taken here. The man working there was polite and made sure to let me know if my hair was covering my face and even showed me the pictures after. Everything was done in 5 mins and the pictures look good!”
