Top Malls in LA

Del Amo Mall.

Del Amo Mall.

There are many malls in and around Los Angeles. Some may or may not meet your expectations, but I just found some that actually might.

Del Amo mall, in the city of Torrance, is just what you want. It has a huge and nicely decorated dining area, in which consists of many fast food restaurants. It’s dining area is like a Golden Corral Buffet. There are so many options that you can’t choose what you want to have for lunch.  In the balcony area, there is a Johnny Rockets, Outback Steakhouse, P.Fs Chang’s (Asian/Pacific), Genesis Khan (BBQ Grill), and a Chick-Fil-A just a few blocks behind it. It’s so close to the beach that the wind blows through your hair every few seconds and it sort of relaxes you in a way that can’t be explained in any words. The sunset is as bright as when you turn on the light at night time. The colors are between yellow & red, but you have to decide yourself. There are many stores but these are just some of them: Aeropostale, Hollister, Pacsun, American Eagle Outfitters, Urban Outfitters, Bath & Body Works, Foot Locker, Forever 21, H&M, Gap, Free People, Macy’s, and Steve Madden. From a rate to one through ten, I’ll give it a eight.

Glendale Galleria is a well known mall that is located in the city of Glendale near the Five Interstate freeway. The appearance of the mall is really eye attractive because there’s a fountain across the block where there are plenty of more stores aside from the ones in the building across. The stores in this mall are: Abercrombie & Fitch, Aeropostale, Aldo, Apple, Cotton On, Foot Locker, Hollister, American Eagle Outfitters, Forever 21, H&M, LUSH, Pacsun, Steve Madden, Sunglasses Hut, Tilly’s and Target. Although there are many stores, there is very little known stores for teenagers. The eateries at Glendale are: ‘lette macarons, Blaze Pizza, Hot Dog On a Stick, In-N-Out Burger, Red Robin’s Gourmet Burgers, and many more. I’ll rate this mall an eight because their dining options are a little better than the ones at Del Amo mall.

Westfield Culver City is a very high populated mall. There’s so many people it’s like traffic in a freeway. From the looks of it, they need to be sanitary. The restrooms are disgusting, and the smell is highly unpleasant. This is something I recommend that they fix. Some stores at Westfield are: Adidas, Aeropostale, Hollister, American Eagle Outfitters, Bath & Body Works, Coach, Daniel’s (jewelry store), H&M, PINK, and many more. Although they have many stores, they don’t really have a lot of  restaurant options. Some of the well known ones are Chipotle, Olive Garden, and Five Guys (burger joint). The biggest problem that I saw at Westfield was that it’s very populated and that creates a problem for the lines to check-out. I’m pretty sure this not only makes the shoppers frustrated, but the workers too. I would rate this mall a five because there’s so many complications within it.
