    Beautiful mall with over 150 shops and eateries and a really nice food court. This mall is two stories and has a very unique architecture to it with light shining in from above. They have most of the basic stores, and it is not really an outlet of the high-end stores, but they have just about everything you need like Hot Topic, foot locker, H&M, and they have a Macy's and JC Penny's. They also have an outdoor are which has stores like California Pizza Kitchen and Ashley, as well as an Applebee's. It's a very nice mall for shopping and walking around.

    I can spend hours here at the Main Place Mall! Here’s yet another large mall that I’ll recommend for its variety and volume of stores. While there may not be the amount of high end designer shops here as I’ve recently covered, there’s many independent retailers offering some high end sales of clothing, shoes and accessories. The mall may also appeal to budget conscious consumers seeking to find similar styles at affordable prices. There’s shops of services, entertainment and essentials. A large gym is located at the south end of the mall by the game room. There’s also a large assortment of mall vendors available for additional items, novelties and services. A designated food court has popular fast food choices available, located at about mid mall. Restrooms are nearby for easy access. Dine-in restaurants and snack bars are located randomly as well. Parking is provided all around the mall, with open lot and garage spaces. It helps to view the map prior to choosing the optimal spot for access. Disabled handicapped priority is good with placard. The Main Place Mall just about has it all, although an included general discount variety store would help to complete the trip here. It’s a bit dated, mid 80’s on the inside, tho progressively functional and clean with revisions! Decor is provided to fit the occasion, as the holiday spirit pervades the mindset of shopping!

    The last time I visited Main Place was before the pandemic. It used to be busier and host a lot of quality stores that seem to have gone, replaced by more "generic" options.

    One of the best food courts I’ve seen in a while! I went to meal in a box and got the spicy pork bowl. It was delicious. I also had a chance to check out the mall itself and it had cool stores and it was easy to park. From the outside it is less impressive but definitely a good mall inside

    Amazing mall! I love that they have wifi lounge to just sit down and chill with our devices xD, the food selection is wide, there's a lot of famous brand clothing stores, I've even found a custom shirt and car decal shop in it. The only thing I don't like is that they don't have much restrooms around.

    This mall has definitely seen better days. For it's age and design it's well maintained, but it shows extreme signs of it's age and feels like it could shutter at any moment. The parking structure looks like a prison yard and feels like one too. It's quite unwelcomeing.

    More lively and populated than most malls these days. Good food court with some unique offerings. Highly recommend the bubble waffle from Mr Waffle. Good mix of Asian, Mexican, and American stores. Clean and safe area. Surprised they are doing so well here with no empty stores.

    This is my go to mall. It has everything you could need from a mall and is usually nice and clean. I enjoy stopping by to shop or just walk around and grab a snack. The only drawback I do have is the mall is supposed to open at 10 but when I arrived at 10:15 many stores were still closed. I was in a rush and was not able to go to the store I needed. Something to keep in mind if you need to go right at opening.

    Really nice mall!! It opens it's doors an hour early so that people can walk around for exercise inside which was nice. It had a good selection of shops and a good sized food court.

    (Translated by Google) Shopping there is a bad experience, small stores only allow 3 to 5 people within the business, so if you want to buy something, you have to train, and wait. (Original) Ir de compras ahí, es una mala experiencia, las tiendas pequeñas solo permiten de 3 a 5 personas dentro del negocio, o sea que si quieres comprar algo, hay que formarse, y esperar.

    This mall has been around for years, I remember coming here with my parents and also with friends for the 1$ theater when they still had it. It's still not too expensive but did go up in price because they started showing new movies. They also used to have more arcades and that was always a highlight.. hopefully things like that make a comeback in the future because those were always highlights in my days Still a good mall though. I love my city.

    It’s always fun going here! I love that they have an arcade right inside the mall. I get to take my son there often. He loves it! Most stores have great customer service as well!

    There’s nothing more compared to this prestigious shopping center that I visited yesterday. All of their products were originals and branded. No wonder that many people were going in and out to the mall. Also, they were recruiting nice salesladies and sales boys to accommodate every customer like me. I loved the fact that the area was secured and clean. It gave me a reason to keep on coming back. See you soon!

    Great mall with a good selection of stores to choose from. Whatever you are looking for, you can probably find it here. The cinema is awesome and cheap, they have great food options, desserts, and the atmosphere is amazing. Whether you want to pass the time, enjoy a little treat or buy yourself something nice this place has it all. Most of the well known stores are here like Macy's and JC Penny, the only thing I would say it's missing is an electronic store like best buy. I would definitely recommend this place if you have small kids and you want to keep them entertained for a while they have a kid zone, games and goodies for them. There is plenty of parking space and it's safe for everyone.

    Good quality of products and foods. I will come back to this place for sure. It was a great place to buy anything you want. I got my new bags and shoes. Their crews were very helpful, accommodating, and welcoming throughout the shopping. A five-stars satisfaction rating all the way for this mall. Thumbs up!

    I love how the Main Place Mall used to be a movie location for Arnold Schwarzenegger's Kindergarten Cop which was released on December 21st, 1990. We really enjoyed our visit and did some art!

  • 4/5 Anthony T. 3 years ago on Google
    This place has a store for almost everything you might be looking for. My only complaint is looking for a parking at this mall. It's always super packed and hard to find a place to park.

  • 4/5 Robert N. 3 years ago on Google

    Convenient, clean and enjoyable experience! We aren’t shopping at fashion island BUT we can’t deny this is an alternative given the proximity. There should be a revamp and upgrade soon!

    Well-occupied enclosed shopping mall in the northern limits of Santa Ana. Just when I thought the only two bike racks were underneath a pedestrian bridge outside of a closed entrance, I found another bike rack by the corn hole pit outside Boudin SF. Now I'll park there every time I visit this mall as it'll be far more convenient and safe. I love the glass-block bridge by the food court upstairs. Nice '80s-esque look😎

    This place has potential,but it’s lacking so much. This place has the Westfield name but none of the connections. It’s great if your local and this is the only place you have. But the block is close by as-well and have a a better selection and prices. Overall 3/5 stars will not be back

  • 4/5 Priyanka l. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place over all. I like the macys at this location- they have good shade collections. Also fragrances. Some of the store has good collection and some are okay. Since this is kind off center to most of the spot like orange , garden grove and Santa Ana. Looking for more better collections at this location.

  • 4/5 Betty J. 1 year ago on Google
    It was a nice, casual stroll with no shopping plans. Just wanted to eat in the food court (Osaka), which is often crowded. The WiFi rooms are a great valuable addition to the mall. Parking was pretty easy.

  • 4/5 Sky M. 1 year ago on Google
    The 2 story mall is nice, clean with shops, not so many brand names. Lots of restaurants around it. There’s bowling and game room, shooting game store, Ninja store is good place to throw a Birthday party. Lots of parking.

    Nice and clean mall with all of the basics… there is also a 10-stall Tesla supercharger in the west parking lot.

    Panini Kabob has a very tasty menu with a wide variety of authentic Mediterranean dishes. The food was absolutely delicious, with a great balance of flavors and spices that made each dish unique and delicious. I particularly enjoyed their appetizers, they were very flavorful and had a great mix of ingredients. The main dishes were also great, they had a nice variety of meat and fish options, with sides of fresh vegetables and rice. The service was also excellent, the staff was very friendly and attentive. They were able to provide great recommendations based on my preferences and they made sure we had a pleasant dining experience. I only go to this restaurant for special occasions because the prices are a bit higher than other restaurants in the area, but it is worth it for the delicious food and great service. The atmosphere of the restaurant is also very nice and intimate, perfect for a special occasion. Overall, I highly recommend this Mediterranean restaurant for anyone looking for a delicious meal and a memorable dining experience.

    For the past decade Mainplace Mall has been my "go to" mall With that being said, I am grateful that business is still booming even after covid I highly recommend to those grandparents out there who don't know what a hidden gem this grandkid/baby friendly indoor nicely air conditioned mall as well as for parents too.

  • 5/5 Cabrina B. 6 months ago on Google
    They have a super cheap movie theater inside kinda smells bad but can't beat it for the price. They have a huge selection of dinning very impressed. Went to the children's place and got super grate deal getting my son a bunch of school clothes. Over all super happy.

    This place is totally under rated! Cutest vintage clothes shop. Lots of japanese shops. Great food court. And ... wait for it! They have converted an old big box stores into a mini mall with separate shops like an antique mall. It is amazing please go check it out!!!

    This is a very good place to spend the afternoon/day in the mall. Most of the time, the place is crowded with local tourists and visitors. They're pretty good places to eat on varying budgets.

  • 3/5 Liane L. 3 years ago on Google
    Sent to Macy's Lancome counter to get replacement puff to compact I bought only 2 weeks ago for $40. I was very disappointed to find out they would charge me $12 for replacement pack even though the puff that came with it literally fell apart and separated in 2 pieces. Then they told me not in stock & just shrugged me off.

    I loved this grocery store a lot! Their selection of foods was great and impressive. Besides, I loved to walk the whole area because it was filled clean and beautiful view. They have many products, very good quality of the meats and plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits to purchase. Also, the staff that introduces me to the different departments was highly appreciated, very friendly, and wears a smile. Till next time!

  • 5/5 Lexi-Mae H. 3 years ago on Google
    Adjacent to the better shopping mall in the area. But this is still the best option for shopping. A haven for all that you want for parties and any occasions. They're selling affordable cocktail dresses and pretty bags at a very reasonable rate. Just try to visit the place.

  • 4/5 Rachel P. 3 years ago on Google
    I get lost every time I come here due to not being used to the layout and the parking isn’t always ideal. Great restaurants and valet if need be. Make sure to be safe and lock the car up. Better to be safe than sorry.
