The Grove

Hi guys I must say there is a lot to say about living in California, and one of the highlights is the incredible shopping experience at The Grove. This place truly stands out as one of the best shopping destinations in the state. The Grove boasts a remarkable selection of stores, including Barnes and Noble, Gucci, and many other big-name brands. Whether you're looking for the latest bestseller, high-end fashion, or just browsing, you can find it all here. The variety of shops caters to a wide range of tastes and preferences, making it a shopper's paradise. One of the standout features of The Grove is its atmosphere, especially at night. The twinkling lights that adorn the area create a magical ambiance that is simply beautiful. It's the perfect setting for an evening stroll or a relaxed shopping experience under the stars. Overall, The Grove offers not just a shopping trip but a memorable experience that captures the essence of California living. So, next time you're in the area, be sure to visit The Grove and indulge in all it has to offer.

Perfect for families or a cute date, I love that is pet friendly, the snow time was marvelous with all the Christmas lights and season deco everywhere. You can feel safe and sound it’s a great area in general. If you are a reader don’t skip this Barnes and Noble it’s packed with a big variety of goodies. Easy parking.

There's something magical about this shopping center during Christmas. It feels like you're walking through the happiest place on earth where everyone is dressed up and happy. The scenery is incredible and the Christmas decor is unbeatable with Santa and his reindeer flying over the fountain located in the center of the center, with the water dance show going all the while, there's snow dropping down onto the shoppers bellow. Oh, what an incredible, magical time to be alive!

We have gone there over the years whenever in LA and The Grove will always remain a great place to go for shopping, dining or simply for its happy atmosphere. A place close to my heart ♥️

I had a good time at the Grove. I took an Uber here so no issues with finding parking. The farmers market was nice and had a great mixture of shops. Everything looked great for the Christmas holiday season. I did some last minute clothing shopping at Vince and Nordstrom. Despite it being the holiday season, it didn't feel congested at all there. I would definitely visit again.

Ok we had not been to the Grove in quite a while, so we decided to come see the holiday decorations and have a nice dinner. The decorations were very nice and we had a very nice dinner at one the many restaurants here. Come enjoy some holiday cheer!

The Grove is one of the world’s premiere shopping destinations. The signature lighted trees, dancing fountains, trolley, picturesque setting, of a Caruso property are on full display. Mall itself is a diverse mix of high-end retailers, popular stores, etc, caters to just about everyone in LA. The outdoor mall is a great place to stroll, eat, grab coffee. Parking is straightforward, and the customer service is friendly at most stores. Definitely a must for locals and tourists.

One of my favorite malls in Southern California! Always lovely to visit during the holidays because everything is beautifully decorated and you are able to get into the Christmas spirit and enjoy the shopping experience more than usual.

Love the grove during the holidays! They have fake falling snow and lots of cute but boujee stores. Expect a lot of traffic going in and a lot of people traffic. Only thing I don't like is they don't validate parking (at least they didn't in my experience).

This review is for Santa Christmas pictures. We paid in advance for the highest tier package. They have the nerve to ask people to arrive 15 minutes prior to their appointment only to make them stand in line and not be seen until 2 hours later. Once inside the Santa house, they rush you to snap pictures not even giving enough time to figure out how you want your pictures. Overpriced for such a horrible experience. We only came to this location because Glendale was all booked. Never had an issue with the Glendale location, they always respected the appointment time and was in and out with no issues. NEVER!!!! Coming back to the grove location. I emailed them to advise of our experience only to receive a short and cold response advising that no type of credit for the inconvenience would be given. Very rude people!!!

Vegas vibe. Too crowded, store sells stuff more expensive than online and long lines in fitting room and restroom. Maybe for people watch,but not in the mood to shop here. Expensive parking. Parking validation does not work. First visit will also be my last visit.

Not close but worth the drive! I've been visiting the Grove for years, and I'm a huge fan of all the Caruso developments--this may have even been the first I ever visited! What makes the Grove so special? Beyond the upscale shopping and dining, it's the atmosphere. The Grove somehow feels like an escape from the usual bustle of LA. From the iconic trolley rides to the stunning fountain show set to music, every visit feels like an experience, not just a shopping trip. One of my absolute favorite times to visit is during the holiday season. The transformation gets me into the spirit: twinkling lights everywhere, an enormous Christmas tree that rivals anything you'd see in a Hallmark movie, and the whimsical decor that takes over every corner of the center. No matter what time of year, the Grove is worth every minute of the drive. Whether you're shopping, grabbing a bite, or simply strolling, it's a place that's as beautiful as it is memorable. And with the historic Farmer's Market right next door, there's even more to explore and so many incredible and diverse eatery options!

The grove is a beautiful mall with many high end shops. They also have an AMC which I frequent regularly. Their barnes n nobles is also a popular spot. They have some food options which I haven't tried but they always are packed. Just be prepared for the parking because it fills up and can be a hassle. It is a very busy mall but a very beautiful one if you are okay with crowds.

the grove is all about high-end shopping. from stores like Banana Republic and Louis Vuitton, to the best brands in the WRLD. you can actually catch celebrities around this area all the time. i would recommend a stroll through this beautiful area and check out this nice area in LA

There's really nothing else in Los Angeles like The Grove. This was one of the first of Rick Caruso's projects. He also created a small outdoor mall in Pacific Palisades and one in Glendale, but they still don't have the magic that The Grove has. So many people love this outdoor mall. It creates the illusion of being in a small, idyllic and kind of Disney-esque town. I love to take friends visiting L.A. here as it's a fun shopping and dining destination. You can make believe that it's a small town's downtown as each shop or storefront looks like it is an individual building with different storefronts, architectural façades & details. There's even a streetcar trolley. There's a nice variety and selection of stores ranging from athletic stores like Lululemon or Nike to upscale boutiques like Gucci. A small street that goes off the main street called Bow Street has a little café (LaLa Land). There's also a large AMC cinema playing movies. The outdoor mall is anchored by a very nice Nordstrom's. The best feature of The Grove is the lake with the musical fountains. It's like a mini version of the Las Vegas Bellagio fountains. At Christmas they put up this beautiful gigantic Christmas tree and have a giant Gingerbread house you can go into and see Santa Claus. It's super festive. The free streetcar trolley will take you on a trip around the lake and past all the stores. One of the streetcar's starting areas is in front of the Nike store where it stops for passengers. If you don't want to park your car by yourself, there is a valet parking service on The Grove Drive, which is to the east of the mall. You can enter The Grove Drive from Beverly Blvd. or from Third Street. Validated parking in the structure is free for two hours, but after that it goes up to $15; you can also park in the Farmer's Market next-door for 90 minutes with validation at one of the Farmer's Market restaurants or coffee shops (restaurants in The Grove cannot validate parking from the Farmer's Market). Some of the small stands and restaurants in the nearby Farmer's Market are less expensive and a better value if you decide that you don't want to eat at one of the more traditional and larger restaurants that are inside The Grove. If you need any help, the guest relations and customer service is located on the ground level of The Grove's main parking garage, as well as some very nice bathrooms.

This is an iconic area to hangout or spend a few hours in LA. While often chaotic because of the crowds, this spot really has a lot to offer in terms of dining and shopping. Plus, many beautiful spots to take photos. But what I love most about The Grove are the variety of pop-ups that show up throughout the year. This year alone I've been to pop-ups for The Outset, Kosas, Dolce & Gabbana, and Laneige. Many times these pop-ups will give away free samples or gifts with purchase. Additionally if you sign up for Caruso Rewards, you can earn points to get even more free stuff throughout the year. Sometimes even promotional items like water bottles and diapers. If you're not doing a ton of shopping or struggling with mobility issues, I highly recommend parking near Pan Pacific park to avoid paying for parking. If throngs of people stresses you out or triggers anxiety, I'd avoid this spot because it can be too much. But if you're looking for a scenic outdoor shopping experience, be sure to pay The Grove a visit.

Stopped by on Friday, 12/06/24. This outdoor mall is magically the best. I really enjoy walking around here. There's not much restaurants to dine in but the Farmers Market would be your go-to if you are looking for something more affordable and versatile. Tis the season, so I saw the gigantic Christmas tree which was spectacular! This place gets extremely festive during the winter holidays - a great vibe.

super crowded on weekends, especially holiday season! the parking makes me wanna T___T but it's so jolly and festive with so much to do! lots of shopping and eating/ drinking here with friends or family. honestly i wasn't even cold because of how many people were here @.@

What a pleasant time at the Grove!!! Christmas time is magical here!!!! Well decorated throughout the whole place in such a beautiful manner. There is s Santa to take pictures with and he is extremely good!!!! Highly recommended

I love going here during the holidays, especially! Wonderful decorations, very clean fun place to visit. A lot of great restaurants with scrumptious food and movie theater! Great shopping as well!

The Grove is a cool place, however the parking costs are now astronomical and for what? To park your car and go there to shop and spend money! We won't be going back as they changed their parking policies and it's not in the interest of the people. If people stop going then they'll be forced to revert parking prices back to normality!

I don't think I've ever been here. My friend and I stopped here to walk around and do some window shopping. This place is like a glorious outdoor mall with a dash of Main Street from Disneyland and a sprinkle of Bellagio from Las Vegas. There's a lot going on here, so if you're not big on crowds, noise, or lights and sounds, this isn't for you. The shops are large, with some being 2 levels. There are restaurants galore with patio seating. I think the showstopper for me was the Farmer's Market. That place has all kinds of food and snacks. You can smell all of the different yummies as you walk through the vendors' individual shops. We checked out the Italian market inside, and made our way back out. The Apple store is ridiculously large! It's the biggest I've seen! The other stores we hit up were Sephora, Zara, Lululemon, and Alo. The Grove is a great place to shop and dine. There's a parking garage, where you pay for your ticket before leaving. The mini water show in front of the movie theater is pretty cool. They even have a trolley that moves through the center, in-between the stores, so watch out for that! I had a great time here, thanks to my buddy for taking me. I'm sure I'll be back again one day!

The Grove is a foodie wonderland! Produce, food vendors, one of a kind offerings. Pickle sandwiches? Toffee and fudge candies? My head and stomach were spinning! Packed with masses during the holidays, so I'll be back in the New Year!

This outdoor place is pretty nice. Plenty of shops and restaurants, sitting areas to people watch and relax with parking nearby. The parking was $10 for a short stay. The vibe is definitely fancy chill. We would love to have a place like this closer to where we live, but it was a nice change of scenery for a few hours. We came for the Laneige Pop Up on 11/10/24.

We went to Beverly Hills and the Airbnb we stayed in was just a mile away from the grove. It took us 20 minutes to walk to the Grove. The Grove is an open-air shopping complex. We noticed a cable car running around the complex and since it was almost Halloween, they had several Halloween decorations scattered around the complex. We saw several well-known eateries, coffee shops, clothing/apparel shops as well as mom-and-pop shops. While walking around, we found the Farmer's Market The Farmers Market is a nice place to walk and browse around. I think there are more than 100 stalls inside the Farmer's Market. We found several eateries, fruit/vegetable stalls, drinks, bakeries, and other stalls that sell different kinds of items. You will be amazed at how you can shop and how big this Farmers Market is. If you want to purchase any items to eat, they have several tables and chairs for you to seat and enjoy your food. If it's your first time at the Grove, you stroll around the open-air complex and then visit their Farmer's Market to experience a total shopping feeling.

Cool place to walk around, grab something to eat and drink and do some shopping with friends

The Grove has a lot of high end stores so it's where I go when I want to buy a nicer gift for a family member. The staff in the shops usually are very helpful from the places I've shopped at. They also have a good food court selection, a lot better than some other malls. It's just really crowded and parking is expensive

Came by to grab some lunch and the ambiance was nice as they started decorating for the winter season. The parking however though is tough and that one crosswalk is quite bad. The one that runs through the Grove is nearly impossible to cross unless you get lucky by some nice pedestrians or really inch your way though.

The Grove has it all! It's one of those places where you can shop, eat, drink, and watch a movie. They have some iconic sceneries throughout the year depending on which brand is having a pop up and it's especially magical during the Christmas holiday where they set up the holiday decor and have "snow" fall during the evening. Some big brand names at the grove include Nike, Nordstrom, Diptyque, Le Labo, Gap, Sephora, Apple, Michael Kors, Alo, Barnes and Noble, Aritzia, and Banana Republic. The restaurants and coffee shops have rotated around a bit between the years but they have Pressed juicery, LalaLand, and various restaurants. I love that you can also walk across the street to the World Market and the Container store. There is a parking structure attached to the Grove itself. The area is kept clean and there is a tram that can take you from one end to the other! I love that there is plenty of outdoor seating and some grassy areas where you can sit and hang out. They have a designated area for uber pick up as well.

Feel as though this is mostly a tourist destination now; heck, I came here as one before I moved out here. Naturally, stores have changed over time. Going back, I remember there was a huge Abercrombie store near the Nordstrom which has become a Nike. There was also a flagship Victoria's Secret near Barnes and Noble, and a Banana Republic was where TopShop took over, which is currently an empty space. Dominque Ansel with their cronuts soon became Curtis Stone's Picnic Society, which is now Alma. What was Pacific theater is now an AMC. Farmers Market will still bring people in due to their unique offerings, and although I used to avoid this part of the property, now I find myself wandering the area whenever I stop by. However, haven't done so in a while since the parking rate is ridiculous for what this place is, and you have Century City so close by which offers at least one hour free (their AMC validates for 2-3 hours) and the same if not better shops. Unless I'm here for a screening, I avoid The Grove at all costs, when there is so much more offered elsewhere.

The Grove is probably my favorite 'mall' in LA. I mean, is it really a mall? It's so dang classy. Y'all, Taylor Swift premieres her concert movies here - it's that fancy. Kanye & Bianca come eat at the Cheesecake here in her barely there, nude colored attire. When at the Grove, look around, because you never know who you'll see walk by. Rick Caruso is in the man behind the brand and you'll know it while here. He plasters his name on everything, with even the reward points being called Caruso Bucks. It's very Trump-esque of him and he even has a spray tan like D.T. Big difference though, he cares about other humans and actually seems like a decent guy. Just a little full of himself lol, but I've seen him a few times in person and he is a charismatic man! Builder aside, the Grove is such a beautiful area in the city. The fountain and little courtyard are just gorgeous. They throw a Santa with his reindeers into the air during the holidays. Music plays throughout and it's just a beautiful area to hang out at. Shops include a few luxury brands like Michael Kors and Coach (Gucci is coming soon, woohoo!), but also stores that are more helpful on the daily like Apple, Banana, Sephora, Nike and Nordstrom's. There are a couple of outliers in the shops though like Barnes (i had no idea they were still open) and Brandy Melville (haven't we all watched the documentary by now? this place is toxic) but overall, I'm cool with the shopping options. Food galore to be had here. That aforementioned Cheesecake I've been to a few times. And that's me not even diving to the Farmers Market which is basically a part of the Grove, having tons of food stalls to pick from. Blue Ribbon is a staple, a few coffee shops, chocolates from See's, surprisingly good Chill Since '93, and the spot I visit most at The Grove - the Sprinkles kiosk. I love me their cookies. I'm glad there is an AMC theater here for movies, but it needs some updating. It gets the job done though. I love that I can get car handwashed for $25 while I watch a movie, eat a meal or do some shopping. I love that they give water bottles out, red envelopes for Lunar New Year and do other fun promotional items throughout the year. It gets me to The Grove and spending money so they know how to lure us in. We even did an amazingly fun drag Bingo last year during Pride. The Grove puts on amazing events! Tons of kids activites, too - keep an eye on their calendar. I'm a huge fan of The Grove - truly a LA staple! I will most def be back a million times over.

The Grove is an absolutely beautiful mall with a fantastic atmosphere! It's a perfect spot for shopping, dining, and just enjoying the day. The design and layout make it feel so open and welcoming. While it can get very crowded at times, especially on weekends, the overall experience is worth it. It's one of the best places to visit in the city if you're looking for a mix of great stores, delicious food, and a lively vibe. Highly recommend!

The service is always amazing! Valet, self park if you prefer with plenty of space available. I visit for the assortment of restaurants and specially the Farmers Market Christmas is exceptionally special Cheers!

Pretty outdoor mall. Conveniently connected to the original farmers market. Just your typical big brand stores like Apple, Nike, Sephora etc. Wouldn't say it's one of my favorite malls in LA but it's aesthetically pleasing for sure! Lol.

The only good thing is the valet. Santa pictures - the worst. They cut off our heads! The camera wasn't working this past week. Save the $100 and go to century city. Their Santa setup is way better too. Customer service: varies by stores. Nothing special. I usually purchase online to avoid the crowds and the staffs bad attitudes. I don't know when it became okay to be rude at your place of work.

The grove is an upscale collection of stores, bars, restaurants, and eateries. There's a book store, and during the holidays it's always decorated beautifully and fun! They have casual places to dine and some nicer places as well as spots to just grab quick bite at. The large market behind the grove is so much fun to explore as well. I would suggest coming with friends, family, for a date or a girls day and enjoying yourself. Bring cash, but many places accept credit cards as well. Workers everywhere are friendly and happy to serve you. Love the Italian restaurant here, and they even have a Cheesecake Factory to please everyone! All price points can be happy.

I always love a good trip to the grove. Just know that it is borderline always crowded and parking if you don't get it validated will be expensive. (I forgot to validate and paid $42 for three hours. The farmer's market is always amazing. Long lines but there is something for everyone when you eat there. Highly suggest going for the holidays as it is beautiful.

Really had a great time exploring all what The Grove had to offer. Didn't get to shop everywhere yet got to hit a few spots that were on my daughter's list. Each place was well attended to and had good customer service. Definitely recommend this place for shopping and just site seeing. There is a beautiful pond in the middle that has a water show playing to music. There is a trolley going back and forth the main strip. For parking the height limit is 7'2". We made it with the 15 passenger van. Handicap Parking is only on the first floor. Ofthwe floors have elevator and escalators.

The Grove in LA is an absolute must-visit! This shopping center is truly a beautiful, immersive experience--it's not just about shopping, it's about enjoying a day out. From the stunning outdoor ambiance to the wide variety of stores, restaurants, and entertainment, there's something for everyone. Whether you're strolling along the tree-lined paths, catching a movie, or indulging in some delicious food, The Grove makes every moment feel special. It's the perfect spot to spend an afternoon, with great vibes, plenty of options, and a unique atmosphere that's hard to beat. Highly recommend making a day of it!

Honestly? It's a mall-yes there's a lot of flash and dazzle and it's like the 'Farmer's Market's' retail cousin. Is Christmas here fun? It can be and Santa's here but you have to make an appointment and there's a line and the whole experience reminds you that...yeah, it's a mall. Sure, you get the occasional pop-up but there's a Barnes and a Cheesecake factory-basically as mall-y as you can get. I've had a drink at the bar near the pond and it was fine but aside from that, I don't know just pretty basic.

Parking is ok but the price is on the pricier side. Ambience is combine of outdoor mall and farmers marketcombined together. Value is worth it if you are looking for a new and different vibe of all of the different culture food selection. The service is friendly.

On a labour day weekend, after some errands at the flagship Nike store, I relaxed eating some ice cream and listening to a good band. The atmosphere was chill and everyone was having a good time . I wonder if there is live music every Saturday afternoon. If that's the case, it is a great idea: Well done Mr Caruso.

My teenage daughter & her friend brought me here. It took us almost 2 hours to get there. Google Map was off, taking us South on the 60 to go back up North on the 10. Upon exit to surface streets, there was SO MUCH TRAFFIC. I love that LA is a melting pot, but the traffic and parking is ALWAYS a turn off. We ate at a place that had 1/2 portions, which was nice to see in such a high end shopping center. However, the server informed us to go to Barnes & Noble to get our parking validated. Barnes & Noble refused to validate without making a purchase. The cashier said that we can buy something as small as a pen. So when my daughter got the pen, the cashier then said that we had to get in the super long line. All this over validations. We gave up and just paid the $17 parking, which could have been $35 if we stayed longer. Also, we went to a store called Edikted & there was a big screen TV that showcased models with revealing clothes. I don't get why this is so popular these days. It's no different than when hip hop/wrap music was all about SEX. I think the half-naked showcase is getting so old that it has gotten to a point where on the outside, people don't say anything anymore. It will probably phase itself out some day, but for the time being, it's just annoying. People want clean fun, not dirty trash.

The mall is great and this review is just for the parking validation policy. I asked a couple of stores if they validate and they said up to two hours. Anything over that would be charged. Pretty standard. I went to pay after being there for 2 hours and 10 minutes and they charged by the full 3 hours. Apparently the validation expires if you don't leave within 2 hours. What a stupid policy. They don't want people to linger and shop. They want to you to leave! This is false advertising as every single shop I went has said the opposite of what the policy says. How can they have a policy that none of the staff are trained on? Anyone interested in lawyering up with me? We can take them to court for false advertising and maybe a few other things. The management is ripping people off!

Thank you Rick Caruso. What an honor and privilege it is to pay you $20 fu@!,ing dollars to park my car in your garage. No doubt you need every penny of residents and tourists money to leave my car in one place for three hours. Also why is there no cell service in this mall? The Grove and Farmers Market are great. It's a shame they (Rick) needs to gouge everyone which means it will be another ten years before I return. We need to not support places like this. What's the justification for the parking prices? It's a giant piece of cement that you leave your car at while you spend more money on terrible food at places like La Piazza.

I love coming here right before they are opening because they're so easy parking and it is so quiet. I love to walk the sidewalk in the morning taking a nice little quiet walk with not too many people. I got myself a nice avocado toast and sat down in a little Italy by the Gucci store. I don't normally always go to the Grove but when I do come here, clean everything and type of people that visit

I really want to say thank you for one of the manager who works at DOLCE&GABBANA BEAUTY POP-UP. Her name is Alli. Today, when I was taking photos of my daughter, my son got lost. I was very panic. After she found out, she came to me very calmly and told me that she had notified the security to look for him, and that she would take me to the Concierge because the people there would help me. She told me that she also had a child. She understood me very well and that I would definitely find him. Within a minute of arriving at the concierge, I learned that my son had been found. If it weren't for her help, I'm really not sure I would have found my son so quickly. There were many other kind people there today trying to help me find my son. I am really grateful to everyone who works here. They are really kind and responsible. This is the safest and best shopping place in Los Angeles. I hope everyone who helped me here today can be safe and healthy forever. Best wishes to them and their families. Hope the groves will always be as prosperous as it is now and forever!

When I was little, this was the place to go for Christmas. I don't know what happened over the last decade but it has sadly gone downhill. I remember when I was younger, there were a bunch of gingerbread houses along the road of the Grove. Now it's just one giant Christmas tree and a Santa Home in the middle. Very disappointed. I'm not sure if they do themes every year but this year was unimpressive. Parking can be just a mess. It's expensive to park. But if you make it to the roof parking, you could see the Hollywood sign. There aren't that many stores I like. The best was Barnes and Noble so that was worth a visit. The farmers market can be fun place to get food and share with your group. But again, it is super crowded. Just people everywhere. There's another similar smaller one in Glendale and it's so much better than the Grove.

The Grove is a high-end shopping destination in So Cal for shopping, dining and entertainment. It is open 365 days per a year. The trolley is the best way to take in the sights at The Grove. I highly recommend you take a ride on the trolley especially if you have young children. Every hour the fountain will have a show. The fountain was designed by the same company that designed the famed Bellagio Casino in Las Vegas. It is cool to see the different decorations for different holidays. I'm looking forward to coming back in the wintertime to take in the sights and see the Christmas/Holiday Decorations .

The Grove is a great place to hang out and enjoy family and friends. Plenty of nice eateries and shopping. The service is good and they have a great selectionof restaurants and stores. Great bargains when stores have a sale.

The nice thing about dining at the Original Farmers Market in L.A. is that the Grove shopping center is next door. I will usually have a stroll around here to walk off my full stomach after a meal at the Market. The Grove is a 575,000-square-foot outdoor marketplace that has a number of retail shops and restaurants to dine at. Nordstrom, Madewell, Michael Kors and Lululemon are some of the big name stores here. You can also find more affordable places like J. Crew, GAP, Vans and Banana Republic. The Grove has a large Apple Store if you are looking for something on the technology side of things. At the center of the Grove is a park area with a fountain where you can sit down and enjoy some live entertainment.

There is a sightseeing tram. The wait time was just 15 minutes. It was a pleasant time here.The Grove is a fantastic center in Los Angeles that combines shopping, dining, and entertainment seamlessly. Great place to walk around with a nice fountain nearby with ample restaurants to choose from. The ambiance is lively, with beautifully landscaped areas and charming shops. Whether you're a fashion enthusiast or a foodie, The Grove has something for everyone. Love the Apple Store great interior . The variety of stores is impressive, and the outdoor atmosphere makes it a delightful place to stroll around. Don't miss the iconic dancing fountain - a perfect spot for photos. Plus, the dining options are top-notch, offering a diverse culinary experience. The Grove is a must-visit destination that captures the essence of LA's vibrant lifestyle. Parking in garage costs 5$ per hour for first three hours .

First timers and we absolutely love walking around to the shops we don't have in Hawaii so it was very exciting shopping up a storm. We really fell in love with e with there Farmers market there was so much different foods we wanted to taste and buy so we good pack it back with us 10 out of 10. Will be visiting again

This used to be a wonderful family place but with the shameless parking pricing of $56 daily maximum at the Farmers Market and $35 on the Grove side, it's becoming a place we would not want to revisit. Most restaurants do not validate parking and the ones that still do like The Cheesecake Factory, they do so for only 2 hours while the wait is about 1.5 hours to be seated! There was a time every business needed to provide free parking but they have changed our expectation as consumers to just pay and pay. This has to stop or we will stop shopping there. Feel free to refer to the picture I have posted.

There are scams happening at the kiosks located at the grove. I have always had an amazing time shopping and hangout at the grove, after being sold fake merchandise I can not say the same. I am from Los Angeles and have spent my whole life frequenting the grove, I will be taking my business elsewhere.

Great place to people watch, browse, catch a movie. There are usually events and/or entertainment going on especially around holidays. It's pretty packed during the holidays and long lines for Santa photos. Parking can be crazy. Absolutely do not park at Whole Foods and then walk to the Grove; that's a guaranteed citation. I also want to make people aware there could be scammers that may approach you while shopping. There was a lady with a kid, both in winter coats, that was going around asking for $5 and she seemed angry if you didn't give it to her. There was nothing nice in the way that she asked. They were definitely not homeless and she was talking on her cell at the same time she asked for money. Not often but I've seen celebs shopping here.

This is nice outdoor mall with a variety of stores catering to just about everyone's likes. My favorite was the three story Barnes and Noble in the center with just about every genre of books covered in the beautiful interior. The Apple Store with its cavernous ceiling and live trees lining the edges was unique. The stores that attracted hoards of teenage girls were Edikted and Brandies, the latter had a cafe that served pizza and other assorted treats. There's a nice center area with live music and a lively atmosphere with restaurants and cafes surrounding it. I'm deducting a couple of stars for the atrocious overpriced and misleading parking rates. When we paid for the parking at the kiosk it was $19. Just waiting in the parking lot for five minutes tacked another $3 at the exit! How's that?
