I agree with John A. Its incredibly Mediocre. The stores here are not really stores I usually shop in and if they are (Cole Haan, Pottery Barn, RL) I can find them elsewhere. They get 1 star for having a nice Macys and another for having Saks. But honestly, I kept wondering if I was in the wrong place! The women's boutiques are not well stocked or are traditional mall stores, and the only place to eat if you're shopping alone is Coffee Plantation. (I think...at least I couldn't find anything else....) It does have the Cap Grille which I like but thats not enough to bring me there to shop.
Honestly, I don't see how one could shop here over Scottsdale Fashion Sq. The stores just don't compare.
