Los Cerritos Center

I am so happy for the janitorial staff & security staff, left my phone in the restroom this past Saturday. I picked it up at the security office, what a great group. Thanks for all you do #janitorialstaff #securitystaff keep up the good work

Coming to this mall for the first time I wasn’t expecting much. I thought to myself that as long as it has a Nordstrom’s it should be pretty okay right? So I entered the mall from the Nordstrom’s and then proceeded onward into the mall. I was told afterwards that they had remodeled the mall and from what I saw, it’s pretty nice. The ceilings are almost all have a domed archway style that gives it an almost larger scale look. The flooring looked newer with tiles and everything has the feel of being clean, including the nice furniture laced here and there.
Besides Nordstrom’s, some other stores of note that I like were Zara (one of my favorite places to go for clothing), H&M (for the occasional diamond in the rough), UNIQLO, and they have a Harkin’s theater (it’s like a cheaper but nicer version of AMC)!
There are many other stores I like here, and though I admit the mall is somewhat small compared to other malls I frequent, it’s a good mall and I would definitely revisit it.

The hand washing basin water in the restrooms that are by the «mall management «is too dam hot, not even enough time to really wash your hands. Haven’t you read all it takes 20 seconds and all you need is cold water and soap ! I burned my sons hand and I couldn’t even really wash my hands

We have been here a few times when we take our cars for oil changes or just to window shop. I like this mall as they have tons of shops and restaurants to chose from. There is also a new movie theater that hubby and I want to check out. Hubby’s go to store is Dicks sporting goods. He can be there all day!

Don’t come here!!! I came here about two weeks ago and when I stepped out of the mall someone had stolen one of my car wheels! I had just bought the car too :(I parked right in front of the red robin and I was inside the mall about 2 hours. When i stepped outside the cops and security were around my car. I asked them to check the cameras and they said the cameras were out of service!!! Are you freaking serious??? This place is not safe at all! It was daylight when this happened! Freaking jerks! I’m never coming back! Wtf are the securities for???

Came here for lazy dog café, over the years the center has grown so much many thing have been added. Honestly this is one of the less crowded malls

They added a new addition to this mall. There are a lot of cool new shops like Zara and a bigger forever 21. There are shops for all types of people from sports enthusiast to techies. Great place to shop for all your needs.

One of the better malls I’ve been to. Although it was crowded, I was pretty lucky to find parking within minutes of arriving so I am not sure if parking is typically hard to find. This mall is pretty big with tons of shops. It is cleaner and tidier than most of the malls I’ve been to. If it was closer I’d definitely come more often!

I thought I wrote a review of this mall oh well I’ve been here a few times a great mall especially after they did some changes and renovations they are still doing some but looks like they are pretty much complete. I would have to say this mall has a lot great stores and eating places. If you’re not familiar with the mall you could get lost. Overall this is my second fav mall behind Del Amo Mall.

Love love love love love this mall! I had all of my favorite stores & more. The mall is always clean.
Only downside I would say is the parking lot, there’s no parking garage so you either park super close or it feels like a mission to get to the mall, there is no in between.

This is probably one of the better malls i’ve been to in the OC/​LA area.
Parking is pretty decent here, compared to many other malls. The inside is very clean as well.
I came here for the Dick’s Sporting Goods store and I was amazed. It has such a huge selection of items. They have many more stores and it gets the job done.

Este es mi mall favorito!!! Me encanta las tiendas de Guess, Aldo por los accesorios, Bebé, etc.

This is a pretty good mall to come to for your shopping needs. The mall isn’t as big as others you’ll find in California, but it’s still a good size and it has plenty of good stores located here.
It has some pretty big retailers such as Dick’s Sporting Goods, Sears, Macy’s, and Nordstrom. It also has some pretty decent restaurants like a California Pizza Kitchen and a Cheesecake Factory. The food court has some good eateries such as Panda Express, Pholicious, Sbarro, and a few more. It also has the stores you’d typically find in most mall, like Hot Topic or an Apple Store.
The only complaints I have is that there is no GameStop located here and there could be a few more eateries, but otherwise it’s a great mall to come to and spend an afternoon of shopping.

This place is alright! They have some good stores like Zara and Nordstrom. The food court is pretty interesting also. I wish there were more boutiques and stores like Lush. I think it’s better than Stonewood Mall.

Great shopping and eating. It is huge, be prepared to walk or drive around if taking a day to shop. Great food spots as well are available, close to the freeway, and minutes from Long Beach.

This is my go to shopping center. It is right off the 605 and super easy to get to. They have all the stores that I love: Victoria’s Secret, Nordstroms, Sephora and a Forever 21 that is 2 stories!
There is also Sears, Hot Topic, Abercrombie, the Apple Store, a Disney Store, Michael Kors, MAC, Macy’s, Clair’es and many more. In addition to the ample stores, there are lots of good choices for food. There is a California Pizza Kitchen, Red Robin, Lazy Dog and a whole food court. There is also a Lucille’s directly across the street from Macy’s.
Aside from the good collection of stores and food options, this mall has an easy lay out and never feels overly crowded. It is also clean and well maintained.
There is a ton of parking. I usually park right outside of Forever 21 because it’s usually not as crazy compared to rest of the parking lots outside the other stores.
I live in Seal Beach and it is really easy to get here from my there. The 605 is one of the best freeways to take since it is never that congested with traffic. The Westminster Mall is closer to me but they don’t have nearly as good of a collection of stores and South Coast Plaza is too far away (I hate taking the 405) and the stores are super expensive. Cerritos is the best for everything I need.

Still one of my favorite malls when I’m not shopping online. Lots of nice, higher end stores, but not too high end to enjoy. The mall has a simple layout and a decent food court with restaurants around the perimeter. Parking is another story…

The mall is great, good amount of stores but the biggest problem was its employees. For it being a mall, employees will let you walk around confused until you ask for assistance. In most malls they greet you as soon as you walk in, here they intended to ignore your resistance the most they could. It wasn’t also in just one store it was in all the stores I walked in; Forever 21, Foot Action, Pacsun, Champs & Victoria Secrets. I wouldn’t recommend this mall.

This mall is descent. They have a lot of stores and the place is pretty well designed. It’s clean too. They have a lot of unique stores and they’re opening a new theatre soon but I don’t know when. They have like a Mac store but that place is so bad because the employees treats customers like crap so I never shooed in there. You can find a lot of snobby employees working there but some are nice.

I love how theyre trying to change… But they really need to add more affordable stores rather than expensive. Come on, the new Sports place is pretty expensive. I hardly see anyone go in there. Cheesecake factory is nice but the service is extreeeeeemly slow! It seems they’re trying to become South Coast Plaza 2.0. The place would be better if they add Round 1 arcade like Lakewood.

This place is always packed! The Cerritos mall is a mix of high end boutiques and basic shops. It’s been remodeling nonstop for years, pushing for the latest and greatest shops. Fortunately, they have the must haves: Norstrom, Macy’s and Sears. There is a make up counter around every corner: Mac, Sephora and in Macy’s. The forever 21 is 2 stories and has a great variety of clothes to offer, including menswear. It’s my place for basics! The food court is nothing to be excited about with the usual Steak Escape, Sbarros, Robeks, McDonald’s. .etc and offers Red Robin and the California Pizza Kitchen. I do have the say that the Great Kahn’s Mongolian grill always hits the spot and there is a Stacked and Chickfila’s right outside. It offers both an Apple store and Microsoft store. The Cerritos mall is saturated with everything you could ever want. I dislike that they are constantly reconstructing and changing up the shops nonstop.

This mall has a lot of great shops that are equivalent to those that belong in a high end mall such as South Coast Plaza, but unfortunately the ambiance and the patrons don’t quite fit this nice mall. This mall is way too crowded and I’m glad this area has a nice place to shop at but it’s not for me. The rowdy kids and shady cats I see here kinda ruin the experience for me, but I think Lakewood and Westminster mall are way worse as those malls also run down and much more ghetto. I think inside the shops is where you can feel the most safe. The crowded halls make me feel I’m about to be robbed hahah

Smells like fried food and capitalism. So, your standard southern California mall.
We don’t have a mall in long beach, so I have to venture to this mall now and again. Parking is like a competitive sport here; I tend to just head for the back row and walk. It definitely seems worse during construction/​holidays.
I love that they added a lazy dog. I hate that there are no directories anymore. Some stores moved recently and I couldn’t find whatiwad looking for (walking back and forth, looking for directory). They now have a concierge… who looked up at me from her tablet surprised that I actually expected to speak with her… but she knew where I needed to go
I’m not a mall person, but it gets the job done when needed.

Malls, not quite the same attraction they used to be… either that or I’m just getting older… or both
used to hang out at this place way back in high school… seemed like a lot of fun back then, but now just a place to shop
not a whole lot of stores that interest me, go to Nordstroms once in awhile, Sears when necessary, and yes bank at Citibank. More of a need now than leisure, or as you get older and have responsibilities, you don’t have time to just «kick it» huh?
oh well, still a decent place to visit, they need a few better restaurants and bars though, this center is sorely lacking both.

Awful place to shop with the family. Specially during the weekend. It has no play area. Not a kid friendly environment.
In addition, this mall is under construction all around the mall. Everyplace you turn its either block or has a caution tape around it. It’s dangerous to walk with out tripping over a cone or uneven floor. The ceiling is ugly too.

I think this is a great mall. I work in South Coast Plaza… I KNOW what a great mall is. Its not as high end as South Coast, but its still nice. They are also doing a lot of remodeling on it. We visited several stores, they will have their own reviews (of course). I found that the mall itself is an easy layout. Its clean, they have a nice food court. Wide open. Lots of room. We walked around the food court, there were lots of different choices of food for everyone. Everybody can find something they like there.
The mall had a lot of great parking, but this was on a Tuesday afternoon. When we went inside the mall, we asked a girl at the information desk where certain stores were located. Very nice girl, she pointed us in the right direction. We went everywhere we wanted to (its not a huge mall), in doing that, we covered much of the mall. I really enjoyed it. I don’t shop at South Coast, its outside my price range. LOL! I usually will go to Westminster mall, but today, my husband suggested Cerritos. Im glad he did… I liked it a lot. It might be my new go-​to mall.
Give it a try y’all.

Undergoing renovations.
I know they are adding Cheesecake Factory, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and a theater there.
Abundant stores, clean, and great parking. This is the closest mall to me and I like it.

It definitely tries. It’s currently under renovation so hopefully after its done, it’s a more upscale place but currently it’s pretty blah and the crowd is pretty ghetto. They have a few mid level stores like Michael kors and nordstroms but the place feels pretty drab. It reminds me of the riverside Galleria which not as much selection, crappier interior, but about the same kind of crowd.

This location seems very large, but once you get inside the set up is pretty weird. I would have to say that the mall isnt that big. At the current moment there is a lot of construction going on so I hope this helps the way it looks. This mall always seems to be very crowded so I would assume people really like coming here to get out of the house. There is a mixture of really good stores and really slow stores, but A lot of new stores are coming in the near future. Parking could definitely be better.

I love this mall. I’ve been coming here for over a decade now. They’ve done a lot to update and modernize it. I love all the stores and I know exactly where to find good parking spots. Weekends tend to be more crowded for obvious reasons.
I also like how they throw monthly Kids Club events on Saturdays. It’s free so it’s always a fun alternative to bring the kids here for a weekend fun event. I can’t wait for the new wing that is under construction. I’m pretty sure Macy’s will be the next to go.

Big and clean mall!!!
Seems like it is going under construction now.
A lot of empty stores.
They do have a big Apple and Forever 21. and UNIQLO!

When I used to live in Long Beach, I would come to this mall ever so often but it definitely was not one of favorite malls (nothing compares to South Coast Plaza).
But this mall has gone under a new facelift/​construction, adding new stores and so forth, making the mall a little better (the mall is currently going under construction right now by the way with plans for new businesses that include Cheesecake Factory, Dick’s Sporting Goods, new movie theater).
On my most recent visit, (Father’s Day Sunday… incredibly crowded, parking was a challenge) my husband and I came by here looking for a JcPenney, hoping to return a few items. But to our surprise, they do not have one here (there really isn’t too many of those store directory displays and so we took some time looking for one of those). I am surprised though to see that Coach, Michael Kors and the Apple Store now resides here though (I don’t shop at any of those stores but it seems to be a nice addition to this mall).
What I like about this mall though is the many eateries around, including those outside of the mall, but within the plaza.
This mall has plenty of stores to keep you busy browsing in one afternoon.
Overall, an A-​Okay experience and does it’s job if I need a shopping fix.

Spending a couple of hours here on a recent early weekend morning, I discovered a major renovation going on throughout the center. I’m not a frequent mall shopper so mall walking through the interior with other early birds doing the same thing made me feel like I should be doing this every morning. I’ve done this before at this mall but getting up early enough to do this regularly will probably be a problem for me but it’s a good thing and good things aren’t always easy.
Walking at your own pace through the mall before the stores and food court were opened made me feel energized even though I really only wanted to eat and drink something, but that would have to wait this time. I stopped and slowed my pace to take photos and see what’s opening soon and what stores are showcasing in their windows. Uniqlo, which opened recently, had their AIRism clothing displayed. The fabric stretches, helps keep you drier and cooler, perfect for summer. I went inside before I left the mall and found their clothing to be well made using quality fabric.
You can enter to win a new BMW (car and entry blanks are located in front of Forever 21) and also enter to win $ 5,000 near Green Crush. There are many areas of unfinished floors marked with signs so watch your step but other areas look like they have already been completed with shiny new tiles. Ceilings above look unfinished in many areas and some areas are completely walled up as workers behind them continue to complete new stores and a new Harkins Theatres (
) opening soon. Can’t wait to go back again to walk the interior and to see what else is new.

RENOVATION IN PROGRESS
We haven’t visited this popular Southwest LA County mall in over twenty years. The vaulted arch ceiling remains to be it’s most unique identity. All sorts of new and higher end stores are replacing tired out and outdated shops. Still looking at years of work to complete modernization. Eventhough there are signage for completion sometime in spring 2015. Realistically, the mall management will not be able to force individual retail stores to improve storefronts and revamp until the last year of their respective leases.

Well, I can tell you a secret. Do you want to know?
Dicks is coming. Yes the sporting goods store.
You know what else is coming? Cheesecake Factory.
Bet you didn’t know that eh?
I like coming here obviously because it’s my closest mall. My second reason to come here is to absorb the AC as much as I can because I’m a cheapskate. That, and the fact that we come here to CPK and Sees Candys here religiously. This mall now has some serious name brands like that of destination shopping mall, SouthCoastPlaza. However, I know it will never be like that, simply because it’s in Cerritos. So I have to say, having Dicks and Cheesecake is good. Having Guess and Michael Kors, doesn’t really fit the profile of the shoppers here.
The layout of the mall needs to be friendlier, the parking needs to be redone. But I do have to say from a malls’ perspective for the shoppers, they really do try to make it a decent shopping experience here once you get inside. With that said, I hope the new stores comes soon because it should bump up the rating of this place for sure.

Probably safe to say that this is one of the better malls in the Southeast L.A. area in my experience! So much money has been put to updating the look of this place, it has become a pleasure to shop at.
I have came here countless amount of times. They do have a variety of shops here with some of my faves being Fanzz, Foot Locker and Macy’s. They also do have a food court with caters to a wide variety of eats. And hey, if you’re not feeling the food court, then there are always a variety of restaurants in the outside part of the mall, including Stacked, Red Robin, Lazy Dog Café, California Pizza Kitchen and such. PLIS, if you re not feeling them, right across the street from the mall is a small shopping center with another variety of restaurants to choose from! Wow, where do the options end!!!
The parking here is almost always abundant, as there is more parking by the back area of the mall. The Sears area always boasts a large amount of parking spaces. The parking spaces by the Bank Of America and the restaurants are the first to always fill up. Mostly, the Sears and the area outside Forever 21 are the ones that have the most abundant spaces!
They have made other shopper favorite stores like the Apple store, Nordstrom, Victoria’s Secret, Coach and such. Not my faves, may I add, but others from what I have noticed when I am here! All I can say is best of luck on weekends and the holidays as this place gets jam packed. During the summer months, wow! The AC does wonders! oh yeah, this shopping enter also has a theatre as well! Pretty dope! I much prefer this mall over Stonewood and Lakewood any day!
