Santee Alley

My dad needed a new suit for my cousin's wedding and a friend suggested that we consider coming to Santee Alley, as there were lots of shops selling suits at an incredibly cheap price ($100 for a 6-piece suit). We came towards the end of the day, so most of the shops had started to close. We ended up having to come back a second time!

Would rate a 3.8 out of 5 stars. It was amazing like memorizing for being the first time we've been here. Lots of walking, turns, and circles around. The downfall. Some, most places, prices were higher than I can buy online. Especially the sports tents - $80 to $150... I can get a jersey online for $50-$80... We did find one store, and I got a 9ers jacket for $35! I love it! Depending on what you are looking for, you might be able to find a shop... we were on a mission and didn't like the price...so walked away... but we have plans on coming back. Some items of clothing shops my hubby wants to check out... we had a long day as we started at the swap meet, which had better pricing. Will be back when we have more time to look around... stored were closing around 330pm-4pm.

July 2024 | Downtown LA: Santee Alley is a fun & unique shopping area in the Fashion District! It's always fun looking through the stores! Whether I'm looking for a gown for an event(usually something I'll wear once!), or putting together a costume for Halloween or simply browsing, it's always a great time! I've been coming here for years. One of a Kind: It's fun looking through the stores! There is definitely a variety of stores, which have plenty of every day clothes/dress/shoes/accessories/electronics/ luggage...! My favorites are seeing unique and interesting clothes, styled mannequins, gorgeous gowns and items! It seems that some of the clothing can easily be used for a photo shoot and or music video! I love that it's just something different! Pricing: All over the place, many price points that can easily make it suitable for everyone to shop! It truly depends on what you're looking for. There are stunning gowns that definitely cost more than you would imagine & that will surprise you, as well as dresses easily under $20. Note | Cash is King: Keep in mind that not all of the stores will allow you to try on clothing. Being able to try on clothing has made all the difference when I'm shopping, because I like to know how things fit & call the material fills against my skin. Also, I'm not always in DTLA, as it's quite the distance from the beach; returning items is not worth the drive. Cash is king here and you will often get a great deal if you pay with cash. Parking: Parking garage, meter parking & street parking! Read the signs, as well as the small print with entering a parking garage! Atmosphere: During the week M-F is my favorite time to go, as it's not super busy. The weekends are incredibly busy and lively! Whatever day you decide to go, you will hear a variety of music, see a mix of people, experience a lively atmosphere, a variety of clothing (every day clothing to totally over the top!), food and drink stands, cute animals dressed up and so much more... it's a mixed bag, which I love! Overall: One word that comes to mind is fun! You will pretty much find whatever you have in mind here, as it's a variety of stores for everyone! Plus, I have experienced friendly customer service, which makes shopping even more fun!

I always loved coming here for years and it still does not disappoint. Even though I didn't buy a ton of clothes like I usually do, it was still a successful trip because I did buy a few things that you can't normally find anywhere for a cheap price. I love buying clothes that are a knock-off cuz it's all I can afford, haha! Be aware of the sneaky way they advertise parking because the big sign says $5 but that's not for the whole day. Ended up paying $20 which was more than I expected for sure. There's also a lof of similar vendors that offer the same thing so make sure you get the best price if you start seeing repeats.

Santee Alley is a hidden slice of Los Angeles in DTLA full of shops, vendors, clothing, fabric, food and even some fun. Often the busiest on weekends, especially SUNDAY.... Local, travelers and tourist alike come for some of the best bargains not only in the city, but most of SoCal. It's a little rough around the edges on the outskirts and the further you head down stretching from Olympic Blvd all the way down to Pico Blvd... Metered parking or local transit are probably the best... A good walk or short bus ride to 7th & Metro Station or Pershing Square. Parking lots and garages are plenty, but can be more than you need to pay for though recommended if you're planning to make a day of things in the area like lunch, dinner, drinks, etc. You can find just about anything you need for any occasion including formal, business attire, craft goods, jewelry and various accessories. Being near the heart of the Fashion District you wouldn't be surprised to find bargains on mark offs, brand items and replicas... Rock Gucci by Ucci. So many 2 for $$, 3 for $$ and more for incredible prices... You can get an entire outfit or a 3 piece suit often with extra savings on ties and/or belts. Swimwear, fall fashion, winter coats, sports attire, pet shop, rave gear... You name it, you'll find it! Some shops or vendors due close up a little early compared to others with some more permanent stores on the outskirts of Santee Alley having set hours, but typically... Open 365 Days a year, 7 days a week, just like the sign says :D Something for everyone of every age and gender! Q Tips: Food is okay when and where you find it. It's typically casual dining/comfort eats, snacks and noms. More around Santee and on neighboring streets. I actually strolled over from Santee Passage just before hand which had a few places to choose from as well as bars and restaurants nearby. The restrooms are throughout but limited. It's often suggested to stop off before you start your S.A. Downtown LA experience. Early (9am/10am can be a great time to start or after 4 toward the tail end (a lot of places close by 5 or 6PM at the latest). Happy shopping!

Ok the Alley has always been the place to come get your lil trinkets, special occasion outfits or dresses, and costume jewelry! I've been coming to the Alley for years since I been growing up and it's somewhat the same just more renovations and higher priced garments that they do sale. The prices have increased over the years which is not so great, but that's the entire county and everywhere. The values are pretty decent I come here usually for my tailoring just like today I went to Carlos tailoring and he's really good and reasonable! They have some decent eateries over here to that are decent and new restaurants to try on Santee. Overall, I do recommend the Alley they have really cute clothes and accessories and much more if you want to look nice! The selections here is insane! So they have stuff you need here for sure! Prices has increased unfortunately, but it is what it is! They have it all here and do it all! They have lots of parking and parking lots that charge you by minutes or hourly, but I think it's best to park on the street with Metered parking it's more rational! I keep going around until I find street parking :) I believe in saving the coins! Side-note: they do not let you use the restroom here it's really limited! They charge you at some spots so I recommend using the restroom before or be prepared to pay to use it! -Marshay D.

100% recommend. If you're in town, and looking to score some goodies, this is your go to. I won't after dark (with my wife and kids) but it is a great family place during the day. Wife got a new purse for an amazing price, we bought some safety apparel for our crews, and headed out a winner. Service is good, Spanish is the primary lang, but you can do very well if you're not fluent. Do t be scared. I recommend.

the santee alley reminded me of a spot back home in dallas (grand prairie to be exact) called traders village. so this was like being away from home on a bigger scale. being part of the fashion district, i can see why. we caught a ride down here & once we got dropped off & stepped out of the car, there was more than a lot to explore. so much clothes... so so much... if anything, this is place to get some pants (the dickies selection was out of this world). you have to pick & choose your spots as far as prices go. prices don't even vary that much in comparison to vendors, there's just so many places to visit/choose from. my favorite spot was this sneaker place that i can't remember the name of (i wanna say it was sports kick or something to that nautre... had the sign on top that said "sports" & didn't pop-up on here for check-in). i liked the collection they had, there was a pair of nike dunks that caught eyes behind the register (looks like it was on display only) & couldn't stop looking. one of the stores I'd come back to visit. i enjoyed the experience being my first time here. my next visit will consist of bringing home some dickies (i was serious about the selection when I first mentioned it). they had a lot of fruit stands too, i don't know how I didn't end up with any while getting my steps in.

Love walking the callejones with my family! It's swat meet vibes for sure. I can't say things are affordable because nothing is affordable how it was years ago!

You're going to have a bad time here if you're bougie, a transplant to California, a hipster, a gentrifier or a Karen. This is as authentic Los Angeles as you can get. A predominately Mexican-American outdoor flea market with a variety of shops and food vendors litter every corner. The bright colors, the smell of the food and the way the shop keepers try and sway you into their shops is reminiscent of "los tianguis" in Mexico City. Parking can be a pain because you're either not going to find any street parking or will end up paying $20/day to park in a parking structure. Which to be fair is cheaper compared to parking in other major California cities (I'm looking at you San Francisco!). We've been able to buy everything from clothing, to makeup, to Quinceañera dresses. And in between all the shopping you better believe we do our fair share of eating. Tijuana style hotdogs, burritos, tacos, fruit cups, aguas frescas and even micheladas. Don't expect to find Versace unless you don't mind an extra r. But if you don't mind Fucci instead of Gucci and aren't adverse to eating food coming from a food cart this is one of those experiences you can't miss.

For anyone who loves flea markets, this is going to be your spot. While I'm not necessarily one who frequents them, this is one to go to just for the experience itself. Why? Because it's unlike any other that I've been to here in the United States. Once you're walking around, it is *almost* reminiscent of the markets in Thailand or other parts of Asia minus the humidity. What do they sell here? A little bit of everything. Clothes, fake designer handbags, cell phone cases, cheap sunglasses, shoes, kids toys, hats, fashion jewelry, tiaras, costumes, bunnies (yes real bunnies), birds, puppies...... Even if you don't buy anything, walking around is just fun because of all the sights. For someone who is over stimulated easily like me, I couldn't help but just take it all in. From all the colors to the fresh juice stands on almost every corner, there was so much to see. Should you decide to purchase, everything is negotiable. My only tip is to put on some comfortable shoes and enjoy yourself! This is also people watching at its finest. Another tip: You don't need to pay for parking in the garages if you come early. Metered parking is plentiful on the street (and it's cheaper). If you need to put more money in, it's not hard because you don't actually walk that far away from your car. It just feels like you do because the alleys are so full of stores and items that you lose track of where you are.

Okay ima be real- Some places are amazing here. But there are kids/teens working that get payed $10 an hour and sometimes $8 an hour which is not minimum wage. Some are college students who want to keep a living. I interviewed 11 girls who shared their backstory and reasons. And one guy who gets taken advantage of but need the money for school. They take advantage of the people who don't have papers also. Like yes u have fun looking and seeing the things but there is some dark stuff over there.

Santee Alley has something for everyone. From soccer apparel, to full suits at wholesale price. You can also find jewelry definitely the place to get a good bargain. Do not come here with your card bring cash, as this is the best way to get a good bargain!! Merchants are nice and will do their best to get you the item you want or at least they will point you in the right direction. There is also plenty of food from street vendors.

some shops are nice but most are very cheap stuff. the shops that are nice are very nice. i got a real pair of jordan 4's for $220. very good deal, even got proof of authenticity. you really have to look around, when i first got there i thought it was super junky but when you get to the "alley" its pretty nice. definitely give it a try, its really hit or miss.

Santee Alley is like the Chinatown of the fashion district. Ton of clothing vendors. Popular for prom and weddings. Street parking is free if you are lucky, if not it is metered. Sundays are not free everywhere. So many stalls and store fronts that sell the same stuff. You need to shop around if you are looking for a deal. Came at 10 am on a Sunday and it was pretty packed. Most stores were open already.

The Santee Alley (some folks refer it as the "bargain hunters paradise") is located in the LA Fashion District and the alley starts from the intersection of Pico Blvd/Maple Ave to Olympics Blvd (the entrance is between Santee St and Maple Ave). The alley opens 7 days a week (including holidays) and it can get pretty crowded on weekends. There are also tons of street vendors on Maple Ave in addition to the Santee Alley. [Parking]: Parking can be pretty difficult on Sunday because metered parking is free, but I typically have good luck finding a spot to park on San Julian St (between Olympics Blvd and E. 11th St) because I didn't have a problem parking close to homeless tents just a block away. You can always pay $5 - $10 for private lots in the area for convivence and peace of mind. [Atmosphere]: The city of LA maintains the alley so it is pretty organized as public workers are on a lookout to clean the street up, but the surrounding area outside of the alley does feel a bit "messy" (can't use the "g" word because Yelp will automatically remove the review.) It may not be a bad idea to wear a mask due to how crowded the alley can get on Saturday/Sunday. [Shops]: Clothes are selling at wholesale prices and you can also find plenty of knock-off designer brands for purses. Other items include LA street dogs (bacon hot dogs), jewelry, watches, shoes, electronics accessories, etc. Overall this is a perfect place to practice bargain skills and buy certain items at wholesale prices. P.S. - There's another hidden alley called the Ducasse Alley (related to San Pedro Wholesale Mart) and it opens to public on each Saturday from 7 AM to 11 AM (https://www.yelp.com/biz/san-pedro-wholesale-mart-los-angeles).

I didn't spend enough time here but definitely need to come back and spend hours searching the shops and finding deals if I am ever in the area again. My friend took me here to show me a slice of authentic LA and I was impressed! I thought everything in Los Angeles would be crazy expensive but you can find lots of deals here on clothes, accessories, and more. It reminds me of Jackson heights in Queens, NYC if you've ever been.

Oh, the famous Santee Alley is a must when in LA. If you love bargains, crowded areas, great food, quick outfit finds, dupes, and love to shop this is a spot for you. I can spend hours walking around here looking for great finds. At times, I even feel like I'm in a totally different country. The area might seem sketchy at first to some but I have never felt scared. Definitely worth stopping by if in the area!

Took my entire family from the east coast here to shop and eat after helping me move my belongings out of Hollywood to my new place in Echo Park! There were so many unique fashion items, toys, phone cases, jewelry, make up that we got! We all went to eat at the Food Court on Olympic after and had amazing medteranina food!!! Looking forward to starting again year 3 in LA and picked up many cute decor for my apartment in Santee alley, thank you thank you !

I paid $15 for this. It's a great place to purchase clothes, jewelry, necessities, but I feel like the food is overpriced. The flavors aren't out of this world tastes like everyday food.

Very crowded. But I got a great deal on all cotton diabetic socks in mixed colors sizes 10-13 . And Black tank tops size 3x for under 10 dollars. Plus 3x v neck black t- shirts. Wow. The only thing I couldn't find was a cover for my z- fold 3. Oh well. Still got me an original world famous alley dog. Wrapped in bacon with the works. Mayo,ketchup,mustard,grilled,onion,peppers and Pico de Gallo w/avocado. Only in the Santee alleys.

Cool spot to get bootleg luxury items but be careful. Seen a lot of what looks like human trafficking scouting and it's MAJORLY dirty and grimy. Do not go alone and always remain in packs. Watch out for predators looking for people carrying a lot of cash. I seen a TON of people pull out walkie talkies and communicating with each other

This used to be the spot back in the day not so much now.. inventory is low and not good and over priced..what happen to barting with the venders...come on alley u can do better.. Ya'll need to start attracting people back to wanting to go there

Dammmm i love this place. I got some FIRE jeans for $20 lol. They will negotiate the prices. Its soooooo many stores there you'll need Alllll day just to shop. Hella food options as well and lots of affordable parking.

We have known about this place for a while and finally decided to come. It's basically a huge flea market. There is so many things you don't even know where to start. I like that they have a ton of unique things stuff you won't find at the mall. You can definitely negotiate the price. There is a lot of snacks for sale while you're walking. It's a fun family friendly place. Prices are very reasonable. Highly recommend stopping by you'll feel like you're in Mexico.

So many vendors selling the same things. T-shirt screen prints are great. Many Food vendors, did not try any but it all looked delicious. No picture taking in stores of merchandise. Use restroom prior to going since restrooms are limited. Vendors are friendly.

Now that they are posting some maps, it's pretty helpful. Can almost find anything you need for a party, wedding, quinceañera , etc. Parking is atrocious but lots of parking lots which are pretty expensive, expect to pay $4/hr at a meter and 15-20 for parking lots. The vendors are mostly helpful if u cannot find what you are looking for 60-75% will direct you to the right place. Walking distance to the fabric and flower district, although the walk to flower district has a few tents on the sidewalks, probably don't go by yourself if its late.

Santee Alley is a bustling shopping area in Los Angeles that offers a wide variety of clothing, accessories, and other items at affordable prices. While it can be an exciting place to explore and find great deals, it can also be overwhelming and chaotic at times. The alley can get extremely crowded, making it difficult to navigate and shop comfortably. Additionally, some of the products sold there may not be of the best quality. Despite these drawbacks, Santee Alley can be a fun experience for those looking for a bargain or unique finds. Just be prepared for the crowds and keep your expectations in check.

This is a must-see if you love bargains, haggling, and flea markets! It is a cool stop in the fashion district. Lots of vendors on both sides of the alley, wholesalers but you can buy single items as well. Authentic Mexican food, fruit stands, and lots of clothing for sale. There are even people selling knock off designer bags out of garbage bags on the corner. Keep your purse and wallet close to you, it gets crowded. Enjoy yourself and find some bargains.

Having fond memories of visiting Santee Alley as a child, I had high hopes as an adult, but my recent experience left me disappointed. Unlike my childhood visits, I found that there wasn't a single deal to be found. Unfortunately, the prices here couldn't compete with online options like Amazon, making it hard to justify the trip. While it held nostalgic value, I now realize that practicality and affordability matter more when it comes to shopping.

OMG this place is crazy awesome. It has been such a long time since my last visit and I was not prepared for the Santee Alley experience. This place I would describe as a flea market style/swamp meat where you can buy anything from Botox to Socks LMAO You want some Louis Vuitton or some Gucci??? Top of the line Knock off!! YESSS there is such a thing as TOP OF THE LINE KNOCK OFF They sell contact lenses, make-up, glasses,purses, shoes, luggage ect... NOT all things are knock off mind you!! Streets upon streets of shopping. Tons of street food also to keep you energized. I cant wait to come back and snatch up all of the deals.

We were in LA and I had never been to the Garment District. Despite warnings of how bad downtown LA had gotten I insisted on going. Downtown LA is shocking but as you approached the homeless population decreased. Even then I had no desire to get out of the car. While driving down Santee Alley it seemed like everything was crappy and tacky. I wouldn't waste my time doing this again

Love going for party supplys and food I was able to find everything i needed and grab dinner

Just wow. Everything and anything you need all within walking distance.. food everywhere.

You can get some amazing deals and crap here if you're latinx! I'm half Mexican BUT born white. I speak fluent Spanish and love my homies and speak fluent Spanish when I'm there but that doesn't cut it. But they see I'm light skinned and charge me more, don't let me buy products, are straight up rude, or ignore me - handing out flyers to everyone but when they see me, they take freebies back lol. Also they Dislike POC. Growing up in Mexico, I can tell u culturally Mexicans think POC are thieves/inadequate and white people are horrible superior privileged assholes (which we are mostly cough cough trumpy's) Oh you can buy diseased baby turtles here! Watch out! The snap backs are awesome.

Wheeeeeew, chile. If you're looking to go shopping, this is definitely the place to do so! Came on a Saturday so of course it was busy. There are two sides of the alley way with what I assume are different stores because one side was enough for me! Has literally any and every thing that you could possibly want to buy. A huge turnoff were the prices on some items. $60 for garments when they're cheaper in regular retail stores? Just couldn't get with it though some stores had better deals than others. A lottttt of shoe stores with for majority of them, the biggest size they go up in is a size 10 for women's. Food stations located at the end of the alleyway to reward all that hard work of shopping. I would suggest using cash instead of a card. 3.5 stars rounded down.

I love coming out here you find literally everything you can think of from fake designer bags to random dogs theres something for everyone...If your friend is getting married at 2 and you need a tux you can count on the suit outlets and taylor shops to get you right by 1...you need some fake diamonds for a night of flexing...caile to the alleys they got you...but dont seem to desperate because youll pay full price...be iffy about buying and they will cut the price down to the point where u buy more for the same price you woulda paid for less

Lots and lots of stuff. Some were same things over and over. Prices are getting higher for the quality of the items. Overall good experience.

Oh downtown of Los Angeles..... the review is little overdue, this trip was made on Tuesday, right before 4th of July. Although, I will be fair and truthful, the traffic was not as bad, and we actually found few parking spots and did our shopping at Santee and 11tstreet. Big area fill with all kinds of merchandise, from socks to watches for every price range. I did find some cute stuff and souvenirs that I was looking for and got my living room area rug too for very good price, especially when I do change the rugs every so often. If you have to do your shopping at downtown, make sure you go their around 9ish and preferably on weekdays, this way you will avoid some of the traffic and the crowd won't be as big as if you go on weekend. IMPORTANT: please have your water or a refresher and don't forget your sunglasses and caps

It's been years since I've been to Santee Alley. It's grown so much! Back in the days it was just a few blocks. Now it's this huge bustling place of vendors! You can find everything to clothes, shoes, makeup, luxury dupes and much more! If you're looking for a pet they have them too! Turtles, rabbits, birds, puppies.... It gets really packed with people looking for great deals! Definitely flea market vibes! If your claustrophobic, I don't recommend it. We went when prom was coming up and let me tell you, young ladies were wrapped around the corner to pick out the perfect dress! Such an array of boutiques. If you're hungry they all so have food! Parking was a bit nuts if you're look for street parking. The nice thing is they added designated parking spaces/garages just follow the signs! We were lucky to find parking on the street. I can't wait to go back!

Been here twice. I don't come here often when I'm in LA. If you want really cheap items this is the place to go. I bought a couple pairs of jeans at one of stands when I first came here. I think it was $20-$25 ea. Pretty cheap when jeans usually cost $30+. Second visit I didn't buy anything except a hot dog! The hot dog was goood! Best thing I bought here so far! You'll find toys, clothes, shoes, makeup, accessories, etc being sold here. It's literally just a long street of stands. No food sold here except hot dog stands. It's not the cleanest, so I recommend you not wear new or white shoes. Finding parking can be tough. There's street and garage parking.

This place isn't was it was before .. As far as prices goes. This was the go to place for same quality clothes you find at your local boutique with cheaper prices . Now it's like it's trendier with same or higher prices which is cool but not worth the drive from the valley

If you're in need of clothes or shoes this is the place to come to. They have a variety of items and they are usually inexpensive. You should definitely try to bargain prices. Most stores will give you a lower price of you ask. I usually avoid coming here on weekends because it is packed with people, there is hardly space to walk. If you come Monday-Wednesday it's when it's less crowded. A lot of the stores will have the same things so make sure you browse a few stores and compare prices. Parking sucks! I would try finding parking in the street instead of parking lots. The parking lots tend to charge between $10-$15. But if you park in the street make sure you pay the meter because there are a lot of parking enforcement and you will get a ticket.

Super fun experience. Great place to get munchies and give your kid $20 and see how much stuff they can get. If you're looking for quality items, this isn't the place. But it's a great experience and a load of fun. My suggestion is walk the whole thing & price stuff out. You'll see the same stuff in multiple stores.

It's so many vendors selling a wide variety of items - clothes for any style of fashion you desire - shoes for the family - toys - jewelry - housewares - etc... They have food vendors offering a variety of menu item - bacon wrapped hot dogs - authentic Mexican tacos and other menu items and all sold at reasonable prices! Parking cost about $10 on average for the day. Just a cool place to go shopping never know what you may stumble across.

This is a classic LA experience. Get all your knock-offs here and have fun haggling!

I kept seeing this place on Instagram and YouTube videos and was so excited to be checking this place out! I've seen in photos that they sell make up, clothes, and a ton of other things for cheap price! We ended up parking at this really shady parking lot and ended up paying $9 for 1 hour. This was like about a block away so I do not recommend parking in any parking structure that claims to be a parking lot on the top floor. My bad review is not about the parking, it was About the place Santee alley itself. 1st off before you end up in the actual alley there is other tiny booths on the side that sell a bunch of tourist clothing Knick knacks and toys. Once you hit the alley it's about 2 full Blockd of booths and retail shops it had a feeling like a swap meet area. When you get there you see a lot of toys, men suits, women clothing and a lot of make up! Let's start off with the cheap makeup, they wanted to sell me a Naked palette for $15. Luckily they let you swatch the make up and it did not feel at all powdery it just felt like a gunk of dirt smash together on a pallet It was super disappointing. Kids makeup felt better than this pallet! I then want to try the highlight pallet, I have the Anastasia glow kit and here had the exact one for $10. Yep I swatched the replica and it had no highlight it just stuck on my finger and did not have any shimmer when I tried to test it. FAIL! after that I gave up on the makeup especially when you are looking around they follow you like you're a Criminal!! No thanks! most of the shops sell pretty much the same type of things. This place closes at 6pm and you don't want to be in the area at night at all. This must be why they close down so early. If you want to take a look I suggest to come in the daytime.

Cool place to experience. They have a variety of things for sale. Clothes, food, souvenirs, toys, little nick nacks, did I mention food ? The alleys get crowded but was able to manage to put throw with a stroller. The fruit cuts were good. Some cool shops. I didn't buy much but it was still fun to window shop and see the cool things they have. Looking for a baby turtle ? They got them lol $10. Anyways I would recommend more for the experience good vibe.

Everyone claims this place is a bargain but Bargain shopping im not sure about. Most of the stuff they peddle you can buy at the beauty supply, online, etc...for the same prices. Maybe cheaper online if you use there discount codes like on Fashion nova. You used to be able to negotiate prices with the sellers but gone are those days, especially with the economy but i still love and will continue to shop here. They do offer cheaper prices or they will shave off the tax if you pay with cash. Most of them do only take cash though especially the smaller stores. I will say that the stores seem to get better and better! And the alley itself seems to be growing with more business popping up. Theres so many selections of everything from clothes to shoes and they offer fitting rooms to try on stuff. No bathrooms are in side the alley. You have to go out on the street which have port a potties. You will have fun shopping if you like to shop in the cali sun. I look forward have to going more often.
