  • David “Arzaluz” Arzaluz

This location offers a convenient pit stop. You'll find "La Michoacana," a delightful ice cream shop perfect for a revitalizing beverage or a sweet treat. DD's Discounts is great for browsing, while El Super serves as a reliable grocery store, although occasional line waits can be lengthy. Utilize the self-checkout with only 2 out of 4 machines accepting cash or card, and exercise patience with those unfamiliar with the process. While various restaurants are nearby, my experience is limited to Panda Express, which is decent. Overall, it's a modest spot, making it a worthwhile choice if you're a local resident or new to the area

Only "cheap" place near my house, just hate that they never fix the never ending long lines and only 2-3 open registers when you can clearly see theirs alot of people working the floor. Like c'mon its the holiday season you know people are going tobe coming in to the store to get what they need we HONESTLY dont need to wait in long lines that reach half way the store... Like I said I only come here because its near my house but I wish Albertsons was there because I know at least they would open more lines for us the CUSTOMERS...

  • Pierre Love

This area is always chaotic, there's never parking. On the weekends there are multiple groups of people just hanging out in the parking lot like its the coolest hangout spot. There a lot of homeless hanging out there as well. Being a woman, it's intimidating being in the area by yourself because when you walk past them and they stare, hoot and holler. You shouldn't need to feel unsafe when you're trying to do a quick run to the shops there.

  • Richard Echeveria

Excellent for the community very friendly environment. Bus number 13 -7-10- and 965 to get you there and back...lil traffic it's always busy. One of the best local businesses to shop around and other business around the corners... have fun shopping for tasty good Mexican foods at El Super 5 stars ....don't forget the beans & rice & tortillas... including different meats selection...God bless you and the rest...

  • Abdirahman Saeed

I came this place to dine in and the black old guy who was working on April 7 night time was rude and disrespectful. I left and I didn't buy anything due to that. I came this location many times and I haven't thought they will have such unprofessional person. I, my family, and my friends will never go to this Denny's at City nights again. Terrible!

  • Travelor

Some decent prices on the fresh produce with better offers on Wednesdays. Always seems busy. Must not mind waiting, however, to check out. Closest store to where I am currently residing and I've made many trips there at various hours and rarely have I not had to wait. An extra checker, or two, could alleviate these type of occurrence.

  • Edgar Juarez

El Super is not that great of choice, the Denny's is outstanding for family dinners. The McDonald's has given bad service en some occasions. It's over all a good plaza for the most part.Good food choices for the area. There's Panda Express and a Mexican food restaurant to choose from as well. Stop by and experience yourself. Thanks!

  • Marcus Timmons

I frequent this shopping center and it is great w the offering of options, but holding off on 5 star until they have parking lots t music and general seating/resting area so I don't have to walk all the way over to the community theater for seating. A few benches would go a long way ;-)

  • Xavier Rosette

i went to McDonald's in this shopping center. seven speed bums later and now I think my car needs a realignment. strange round-a-bout on one side I bet people go the wrong way on it all the time i almost did. there posting lot has a bad flow to it. store selection is so so

  • Angelbaby Olvera

This center has panda express, dennys, el super, Starbucks, dd's discounts, chase bank and McDonald's so this place has alot of what people love very conveniently placed off the freeway there is limited parking though also its kept really clean by the maintenance crew.

  • gilberto p

They can work on keeping it cleaner.. but I also understand that it doesn't help when you have itinerant sellers and a strong amount of homeless outside the stores creating more trash.. but the center does provide an amount of amenities for the surrounding areas..

  • Michaela Glover

It looks beautiful and clean from a distance but you have security guards that let the "power" get to their heads you have a super market that sells expired items. Only good thing is the people you meet in the parking lot. Other than that it's poorly ran.

  • Prince Adam Bin Alwaleed Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud

Went to the #StarBucks in #CityHeights and they didn't even make my Chocolate Mint Mocha correctly! They refused to fill my 32 ounce container as well! This is yet another reason #StarBucks coffee chains are TERRIBLE besides their coffees being GMO!

  • se zaback

Didn't have what I was looking for and they couldn't help me as far as my battery going dead so I had to charge it three times a day. Amazon was much better that they had a Moto Z which is a better phone more memory faster battery last longer

  • Jose Hernandez

This place is great it has its own library right next to it. The mcdonalds is okay sometimes they close early and you catch yourself in the line over an hour. The panda express right there is also great :) the food there is always hot and

  • M.I.A Mirage EksoChiG

Variety of restaurant choices. Including Dennys, Panda Express, Mexican Dining, McDonald's, Starbucks, Jamba Juice, Subway & El Super Hot food, Also has - Chase bank, El Super Grocery store, dds discount store & a small shoe/variety

  • Sandi Craig

The area of University and Fairmount has a lot of traffic and often congested. I do like the shopping complex on the Southeast corner. It has a Denny's, Starbucks, McDonald's Chase Bank grocery store and several other places to eat.

  • Anna Delacruz

All 5he workers at dds discount store are very judgemental even if it a regular and it's really annoying being followed around the store by security thinking ur gonna steal something wen u go into the store pretty much all the time

  • Treniece “BabyDoll” Lacy

I love this center you can get everything here from Wingstop, McDonald's too a cup coffee from Starbucks, then I love me some DD's clothing store. Well it has everything in it, DD'$ is damn bear like a lil minu ghetto Walmart ‼️❕

  • Timothy Dromgoole

It's close to everything and has many stores and restaurants, I usually go to Jamba juice and subway sandwich shop, there's a Starbucks, Mikey D's, Denny's, Panda Express and many more, chase bank and El super market also Timm...

  • Nessie Saurus

I do not like to come over to this area but we were nearby and there’s a place around here with really good cheap seafood. So we went to El Super for the rest of our party vittles. There’s a Game Stop here which is a plus.

  • Dillon Huynh

Everything I need close to me and provides me with basically any thing I really need. only issue I have is at night it gets a little dangerous with all the homeless chilling around and had a couple bad interactions

  • Elaine Castillo

I only to Starbucks coffee shop and the subway sandwiches . But I do use the Bank of America ATM over there that you now have a Wells Fargo ATM I don't go to the grocery store anything out for that shopping center

  • LANCE NOLING

The staff seemed overworked and had an attitude with customers. If that's the way they serve the public, they can. But they won't see me again, I like the Starbucks that's a mile down the road better anyways.

  • terry katomski

The only bad thing, to me, there have always been a line at the checkout. Good for business. Not if you're expecting a quick in & out. Prices are just like any other store. The do have good produce prices.

  • Tina Ahl

Would give this store a 0 if I could. For the most part, they go through staff like water. Some don't know anything about coffee, but they have a great crew as if today. No restrooms, no outdoor seating.

  • Amy Quintana

Busy place, hard to find parking. El Super I love. Know some Spanish if you want to order from the Deli. Visited Chase bank. Also busy, ATM's were down. Bank manager was prompt at fixjng it.

  • Kristen Jack

Never a dull moment here. Lots of sketchy people. Lots of homeless around here. Starbucks there has great customer service and good coffee. Not much else going on for this area. …

  • Leticia Fields

Nice and convenient. Some difficult finding parking space. Shopping at DeDe's enjoyable but not much variety to select from. Santa Ana restaurant food very good.

  • Jr

This is my nearest Starbucks and i love that customer service. No complains yet but sure thing is that I'd be getting some good ice coffee from this location.

  • Maryi Cc

An ok place dont like the parking and exit and entrance to in and out and starbucks, confusing and feels like they will hit u any second

  • Wellknown Eater

If your looking for something to eat you found it. McDonald's, Starbucks, Santanas taco shop, Subway, wing stop and El super all here.!!

  • Michael The Game

Terrible stores, terrible food. Hangout for locals sitting by their cars and outside stores. Avoid this place at all costs

  • Carl Todd Jr

If you get a chance to go to Santa Ana Mexican Restaurant get the Carne Asada Hot Cheetos Fries. They're pretty damn good!

  • Sean Fields

Parking is a nightmare. But I woke up and was able to exit safely. Picked up a burrito at Santa Ana's. Overall okay.
