The Americana At Brand Reviews

It was fantastic and amazing. We stayed through the afternoon into the evening and enjoyed the complete environment and stores. On this day we shot a Christmas Special Video which you can see on YouTube. Video # nHl0Yj539yo

We visited on a Saturday afternoon. The parking structure tells you how many spaces on each level, so it's easy to find parking. They have elevators that face the center of the mall, which provides a nice view.

Besides eating lunch at Cheesecake Factory, we climbed aboard the trolley. The timing was such that the conductor slowed trolley so we could watch the water fountain show as it had just started on the hour. The trolley used to make a complete circle around the shopping center, but today it just went about half way, then reversed direction. So we got off and walked over to Barnes & Noble. My 5 year old son enjoys the kids section. Then we took a trip over to the Apple store to check out their latest devices. In the concierge area, there's an automatic playing piano that my son liked to watch.

We got validated parking from the restaurant. So, overall we had a good visit, and didn't have to spend a lot of money.

My boyfriend and I spent a Sunday here and it was easy to spend the whole day. There are lots of shops to look in; some branded like Apple or Barnes & Noble and some smaller brands. There are so many restaurants and kiosks to get food at and lots of great people watching. They even have blankets that you can use to sit on the grass. There is a Pie Hole here and we recommend getting a slice of pie and watching the fountains as the sun goes down.

Visited right after Thanksgiving, and it was already decorated for Christmas. What a great place to browse, shop, eat, or just hang out.

My family really enjoyed themselves. The restaurant's were impressive, and the atmosphere really added to the magic of the evening.

And the choreographed water fountain was captivating...

If you don't know what to do when you're in Glendale. Stop by here plenty of parking in a seven-story parking structure. And then just get lost wandering the shops they're the movie theater Urban outfitters a Samsung store along with an Apple I'm plenty of food to eat. Those even in and out burger around the corner.

Lots of great restaurants and shopping. Always lively, like a city within a city. A must see for visitors and my favorite place

The "Baby Bellagio" fountains were awesome. Had a theme park feel, very upscale experience. Didn't have a chance to dine there, just some shopping at Lululemon. They had a great up-stairs sale going on, wish we had more time. My only complaint is that parking is only validated after the first hour by restaurants not stores (at least that was what I was told). I don't live in LA but in my opinion, you should never have to pay for parking when shopping.

Recently I was having my car serviced in Glendale and while waiting I decided to walk over to The Americana at Brand. Previously, I had only visited the Americana during the nighttime hours but, this is a great place to visit during the daytime hours as well. I wandered around and enjoyed the pleasant music, the beautiful foliage, and the friendly people.
Before I knew it the time had come to pickup my car and I found myself sad that I had to leave The Americana so soon. I will definitely visit again!

Well maintained shopping mall. Clean washrooms, great fountain view in the evening and different varieties of food to choose from.

This is a must do. It’s huge and there’s something for everyone. There is retail galore (a range of prices), restaurants from small plates to top tier fine dining), entertainment (movies, events, etc.) beautiful outdoor chandeliers, beautiful dancing fountains. If you like people watching, this is your place.

This IS a destination and you should make it one of yours.

This is not your average outdoor shopping center. It has a lot of charm and character. There is a large outdoor fountain, tasteful music plays over speakers, outdoor dining options, valet parking, cupcake ATM and a good assortment of shops and a grand looking movie theater. I loved it!

Whether you are looking for some high end shopping or just a relaxing day near a fountain, the Americana has it all! The staff is friendly and helpful and the grassy areas are open to the public. Grab a blanket and hang out in the shade while watching the musical fountains.

Parking is close by and easy to get to and if you need a validation the food options are almost endless.

I've been to Glendale several times. Honestly, if America at Brand does not exist, I don't know where would I go. There are a lot of stores, cafes, cinema and a beautiful charming square with a fountain.

As I was walking around Americana on this hot and humid day, it was only appropriate to stop and indulge myself. I had the Midnight C&C, Mango Sorbet and Coffee in a regular cup.

Just don't sit too close as the water dances along the pond – water spray may get on your ice cream.

Amazing place! It has about everything. Its fountain and its self-playing piano makes it different from other places. It is a really pleasurable and enjoyable place to go for a walk or shopping.

Bigger and better than the Grove, nice parking, clean, good movie theatre, but absolutely no place to watch an NFL game inside. Had to leave and go across the street to watch a game.

Been there many times, and it is always crowed, most restaurants have long wait lists, and the shops are quite upscale and pricy. Nice if you want to just go for a stroll and watch the people, outside events and water fountain. Great for families with small kids and for just fighting the crowds.

I love this place! The fountain has a musical light show at night that is beautiful. There is a crepe cart that makes sweet and savory crepes and good coffees. In the winter, it feels so warm and fuzzy with the trolley, decorations, Santa, and music. Feels like you have left crazy California!

We've been down to this shopping area about 3 times now and we always make sure to stop there when we are in Glendale. It is full of cute shops, restaurants, theater, fountains and a nice grassy area near the fountains to just bring a picnic blanket and people watch with an ice cream cone. It is closed off to traffic so it is very pedestrian friendly. So much to see and do in one spot. Don't miss it. It's worth stopping to check it out. This shopping area is very well planned and thoughtful in the way they designed it.

The Americana is a smaller replica of the LA Grove. There are a number of stores, restaurants and a.mivue theater. It is across from the Glendale Galleria Galleria where you will find even more stores.

I go to the Americana every year that I go to California. It is a nice outdoor area to shop at. The resteraunt choices are excellent , my favorite being Katsuya. The fountain show is a scaled down version of the Bellagio show. Nice for the room they have allotted for it. I would recommend everyone to go there at least once.

Visiting The Americana at Brand during the New Year holiday is truly a magical experience. The entire destination transforms into a festive winter wonderland, with elegant holiday décor, beautifully lit trees, and a warm, joyful atmosphere that makes every walk unforgettable. The seasonal music, glowing lights, and thoughtfully designed displays create a perfect balance of luxury and celebration.

The central fountain area becomes especially stunning in the evenings, offering a picture-perfect setting for families, couples, and visitors of all ages. Shops and restaurants feel even more inviting during the holidays, making it easy to spend hours enjoying great food, shopping, and the festive ambiance.

The Americana at Brand is not just a shopping center—it is an experience. During New Year’s, it captures the spirit of celebration, beauty, and togetherness in a truly exceptional way. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy the holiday season in style.

I and my wife go to Americana many times at least at 2 times a week. Feel so easy and we sometimes lay on the free rent blanket on the grass field, and ser sky haha. Enjoy it

This shopping center has top restaurants, brand name stores, and phenomenal music fountain. Very enjoyable place.

This is a fun shopping center. There are plenty of places to eat and shop. The restaurants are some of the best I’ve ever been too and there and many stores to shop at.

This place is a great place to go to in the evening. The lights are gorgeous and the chandelier suspended across the street is so pretty! I felt 100% safe walking around. Lots of upscale shopping and a movie theater which was very clean. Bring a light jacket their air works almost too well. The entire area was spotless. You really feel as if you stumbled into a town square. Just a great vibe there and we will definitely be back the next time we are in California.

The Americana at Brand is one of the very few places I have been to that give you that European piazza style feel. It is not too big and not too small. The lovely boutique stores and stalls has a bit of everything for all members of the family. The main water fountain is absolutely thrilling for young and old and is a definite eye catcher. We found ourselves staring at the water jets on a few occasions. The overlooking condos are quite impressive and the gorgeous surroundings allows one to enjoy the beautiful SOCAL weather. This is a must see if you happen to be in Glendale. It is a touch touristy but with a Drybar hair salon a Barnes and Noble bookstore and restaurants like Katsuya and cheesecake factory and Nordstrom the entire family will be satisfied. Definitely will go back.

Not your typical mall in any country, but you would never imagine you're in LA when visiting this mall.

We stumbled across this mall several years ago and made a special trip here this time and we weren't disappointed.

It is Christmas and the entertainment is fabulous. Our children are teenagers and they really enjoyed the the visit.

They have a lovely outdoor area, with fountain and train rides. Santa was set up for photos, the area was decorated with lights and music playing in the outdoor area gets shoppers in the Christmas spirit, whether you celebrate Christmas or not, it is a lovely experience to warm the heart.

Oh! and we did a spot of shopping too, although I couldn't tell you how many stores are here as we really enjoyed the entertainment more than the shopping.

We parked in the Galleria, shopped there and then wandered over to Americana. Great evening out.

It is a good place to stroll around. Our daughter had a lot of fun around the fountain area. There are numerous shops and restaurants. It can get pretty crowded on weekends.

Just a great place to wander, people watch, shop, … . The fountain is always a joy to watch, every hour on the hour.

Fantastic outdoor mall set in the middle of Glendale. The mall had majority of the typical stores located at most malls. But I absolutely loved sitting outside on the patio at the restaurants overlooking the beautiful fountains with light shows.

Outdoor shopping, dining, entertainment venue. Wish I lived closer. I would go all the time for people watching by the lovely fountain.

A must see the American at Brand is a beautiful outdoor shopping experience with many fine restaurants and stores They hold special events and you can earn rewards points for shopping that can get you anywher from a gift card, free movie tickets and a free car wash. They also decorate beautifully for the Holiday's which are just around the corner

It’s a nice place to hangout. Very family oriented. Nice shops around. Nice ambiance. Plenty of restaurants you can choose from.

We took an afternoon stroll at The Americana to unwind after a day of crazy LA traffic. The ground is very well kept and dotted with variety of stores for those who want to browse or shop. Thoughtfully placed little kiosks offering tempting treats with inviting seatings make it lovelier to brake for an ice cream. Eateries are all around so we ended up having our dinner there as well.

Might be easier to park across the street at the old Glendale Galleria where there are ample parking spaces and just walk across street. I don't think there is any time limit on the parking which makes it easier to linger.

Lots of great shop, restaurants, there is a movie theater as well. Great place to take a stroll after dinning. One should visit during the christmas holidays, the decorations are beautiful. Go and enjoy.

Great selection of stores / Food & Movie Theater!
Nice environment to walk around.
Better than the Grove,if you live on the East side go Here.
Parking is plentiful,easy in & out

We love coming here with our son and his young family when we visit them. There is a great variety of restaurants, a train that the kids love to ride on, and a large green area where you can get blankets to sit on and enjoy the fountains. Nice sculptures and architecture are pleasing to the eye. Enjoy!

Took the family to the mall for the first time. Didn't like the area so much but the mall was nice to walk around. There was also a other section that was cover and had few shops and a food court. There were couple of specialized places like cheese cake factory. Also there was a movie theater,i would recommend giving it a visit

Visiting from South Africa, we accidentally came across this outdoor "arcade". It reminds us of The Grove but in a way, nicer and less busy. We will most definitely recommend this place for a movie, great ambience around the musical water feature, good selection of eateries and beautiful shops and friendly street vendors. Well done GLENDALE ❤️❤️❤️

I go to the Americana to have a change of scene. I don't buy much there, though I like certain shops. There is a really nice atmosphere and it's fun to just walk around. The bookstore is nice, and the Apple Store is less crowded and has better service than others. My favorite shop is Napoleon macaroons, a little cookie booth. Yum!

The Americana has everything you could want. Cheesecake Factory, sprinkles cupcakes, lemonade, bookstores, clothing, movies. Great place to hang around and just kill some time.

If you really want to have a unique experience and fancy upscale stores (affordable though) great food and a magnificent water spectacle Bellagio style, but most of all feel safe and being surround by decent people this is the place, great job Mr. Carusso (owner)

The best free thing to do in Los Angeles, other than visiting the beach, is going to Americana, pulling up a chair, and watching the water spectacle synchronized to music at the beautiful outdoor fountain. I'm usually rushing around trying to experience the most out of life, and this is one of the few truly relaxing, peaceful things I do all year. It's an oasis of pleasant experiences, picturesque surroundings, and pure happiness in the midst of a crazy and exciting city!

A trolley slowly makes its way through the shopping area, a waterfall soothes your soul, the chatter of people at the outdoor patios sets the soundtrack for a delightful stroll. There are many stores to visit and validation for parking at all restaurants.

At Christmas, the massive tree replete with decorations and lights strung up everywhere are absolutely charming, capturing the feel of small-town America even though, geographically, you're far from it. If you want a romantic date, this is the place!

There are some malls where you go to shop. That mall is conveniently located across the street. The Americana at Brand is an experience, and one worth repeating even when you have nothing to purchase. A trolley, elegantly choreographed water fountains, and curated green spaces invite you to enjoy the central square (much like a piazza) with your family. This is the perfect place to hang out while "the shopper" among you hits the stores.

Not to be missed: the outdoor patio inside Barnes & Noble, and the rooftop bars and restaurants that give you the bird's-eye view of it all. And when hungry stomachs prevail, there are literally dozens of restaurants within a short walk.

Americana.. Is always and everyday , Pretty !...
Love the Ambience and the music background all the time.
And also, I know no one pays attention to the Caruso Employees-... but this Lady who is always stationed in the women's restroom. I've been going to Americana since 2008... and each time i come to use the restroom-- she is always smiling and very pleasant, no matter how busy it is and no matter the temperature is. SHE always greets with a smile ..i always make a point THAT I leave her a " tip" . She always makes the women's restroom look clean and smells clean. She deserves an appreciation. You should see her there everyday of the week. Thanks CARUSO for having her to make little things a Big thing.' ...

I love the Americana.. love the music that is played in the background, shops and the vibe. Great selection of shops and eateries to choose from.

They should tell you when you get a Caruso gift card for their stores at The Grove or Americana it deducts from your balance if you don’t use it for 12 months up front. I would have used it right away had I known and just lost $$$ because of it.

Very silly policy. Real bummer.

cant call this a new mall anymore. it took over glendale like a swarm of locust. its across the street from the glendale galleria...different shops different restaurant, lots of people and traffic...and they have housing there...how messed up is it when someone lives above a mall. we go there once in a while for a movie, anything else is a push out of our price range....glad to see someone able to shop in these stores...

Its one of the best Mall surrounding area in Glendale, loved the outdoors greenery and the dancing fountain thats plays special every hour and it has a big variety of Branded restaurants and food stores, do not mess sprinkles there

we came here for Barnes and Noble but stayed for Tesla, Anthropologie, Apple and real good apple pie. Beautiful Christmas deco, Santa was doing photos in a very elaborate cottage. The fountain was doing its thing, there was a live band, I heard the Cheesecake Factory here is better than the one on Rodeo Drive. There is also a cupcake ATM.

I love americana, we go every weekend, we get ice cream, we eat ,we go to the movies, we walk and we watch the water fountains

This place reminds me of a mini Las Vegas with the lovely water fountain, stores, music, and people walking around everywhere. It was a perfect way to spend 2 hours on a Sunday afternoon!

Think the Grove in Bev Hills on a much smaller scale.... And not in the best location either..The Americana is ok ,nothing great ..it's the same concept , outdoors , has a grass patch , a cute train ,however there is no Farmers Market attached , fewer shops and only a handful of restaurants to choose from. We spent about one hour here because it just didn't have that fantastic atmosphere and vibe like the Grove did. I wouldn't recommend it if you have already been to the Grove unless you have nothing else to do.

All free, which is always good. Amazing christmas decorations, fountain display and lights. Magical!

What was a perfect date was given a ticket for parking on the rooftop parking. There were no signs saying not to park up there and when we came back there was a weird citation on our car. What the heck.

Nice, high end retail shops that features a trolley/street car that circles the premises. Also feature nice outdoor kiosks. Good for an afternoon out. Multi use planned development with apartments/condos above retail shops. May be the place to live if your in to status but no privacy afforded here .

This outdoor mall has been copied from The Grove with the obligatory tram through the mall, 50s music playing from the various lamp columns, dancing fountains and the usual array of shops and restaurants. You can find larger department stores across the road in the Galleria.

Be warned that the American now charges for parking when watching a movie at the AMC, even with theater validation. Previously, you would get 4 hours free with a movie ticket validation. Now the minimum they charge you is $5 - and that is with a validation. No incentive to go here for a movie anymore. The AMC at Burbank is much better with IMAX and Dolby Cinema. This theater is getting a Dolby Cinema in the Fall of 2022. My advice would be to park at the Glendale Galleria for free and take the short walk to the Americana.

The Americana is a world within a world, taking you to a surreal place. Take the trolley past the choreographed fountains or try out one of the restaurants in between shopping or a movie at the theatre. If only every place was this wonderful!

I love the Grove and lived near it for years so when we moved, I was thrilled to find a virtual replica right here in Glendale. It's a delightful outdoor space with lovely stores and restaurants. Nice movie theaters too.

We were here in the evening and were pleasantly surprised at how nice it was to walk without cars, but still be able to park your car in a huge ramp. Some stores will validate your parking.
There is a beautiful lit up fountain to enjoy. It is a bit of paradise.
Don't miss it!

I always like visiting the Americana. I usually visit the beautiful Apple Store, Sprinkles, H&M and lunch at Katsuya. The waterworks fountain along with the outdoor music sets a great atmosphere for relaxation

Although not related to Disney, the Caruso firm has adopted many of its utopian small town ideals when building shopping centers. This is by far the best iteration of those ideals after previous centers including Calabasas Commons and The Grove. Here the atmosphere is less mall and more small town village green as the mall also has condos and apartments. During the day there is a street car that runs a circuit around the entire complex. There are plenty of restaurants, stores, a cineplex and a new Nordstrom. Throughout the year there are many events to draw you into the mall.

If you are coming to the Americana, have a destination in mind as there are so many people here that at times parking is tricky and trying to get through the visitors is like an obstacle course. Highlights of the Americana include the movie theater, Barnes and Noble, and The Cheesecake Factory. This is a great place to go, but it can get stressful trying to avoid being run down by women on phones pushing baby strollers.

Outdoor shopping, and even several areas to stop and just ppl watch. This was not far from our hotel and we enjoyed it very much! Save money on parking and go behind the Glendale Galleria and park for free, and just walk out the mall entrance vs paying $10-20.00 for parking!

Americana appears to be a slightly larger version of The Grove, with a good range of shops, restaurants, bars, movie theatres, etc - and even the free trolley car rides. The large central pools and water displays provide a cool, pleasant back-drop to this open-air mall, and there's plenty of parking.
The shopping is even more convenient, with the Galleria (with dozens more shops) just over the road.

this place is so beautiful, water fountians..cafes..restaurants. I love it 😍
it could be abit crowded in summer time; but still worth the visit. you can end your visit by entering a movie 👍

My sister and I spent the afternoon here. We decided to see a movie after lunch. The theatre offers 4 hour validation with proof of purchase. We were there maybe 5 hours total and had to pay $11 to exit. Parking is such a joke in Glendale. No such thing as free.

if your having Family or friends come to Glendale , take them to dinner & enjoy the water fountains & shops or just go to the movies.

Nice outdoor courtyard shopping area. Expensive shops but also regularly shopping like Apple. Also good restaurants.

The Americana at Brand is an open air shopping and residential area with restaurants, also. It is conveniently located in the area near the freeway and other shopping areas and office buildings.

We always head to the The Americana at Brand for dinner or just to shop. This place is our goto stop while in Glendale, Ca.

Great environment, Love the music and the fountains. Good food and great shops movie theater. Fun to shop or just walk around and enjoy people.

A nice safe place to take the family and enjoy food, shopping and trolly ride...they really have a good selection of stores and restaurants now

Beautifully laid out and well managed which in turn provides for a great couple of hours browsing eating and movies

We frequent this place due to family atmosphere and great restaurants. Place is so clean and well maintained.
shopping, movies, food people watching and a nice stroll in a picturesque setting. water show is entertaining and fun for kids and adults.

Our first time visiting this park-like setting in the middle of the city. A great experience to be had strolling around the park-like setting of shops & restaurants. Plenty of parking in a multi-level garage. Validation available when shopping or dining. Comparable to small European cities.

Love going to the Americana at Brand in Glendale. It's a great place for singles and families - kid to adult - to enjoy the fountains, grassy areas or to simply window shop. Great restaurants and parking is usually readily available. We go at least a few times a month for date night, out with friends or shopping.

Nothing Compares or comes close to the Americana. The atmosphere and the vibe made me feel like I was thinking and Europe. The restaurants for little upscale but the quality and the service is well worth the price. There's also local vendors for those on a budget. Between the Grove and Victoria Gardens I prefer the Americana. They're just so much to do NC you're really have a good time. And plenty of parking.

An excellent place,some good shopping choice.
But more so for the fountain show and the tram ride both are free.
The kids just love it, please go after sunset.

You step into the Americana at Brand and into a different world. Great stores high end retailers, restaurants and even a movie theater if you are so inclined. My favorites: the Apple Store, Tesla dealership and Nordstrom’s.

Stayed at this property as part of a AirBnb and it’s in a great location. So many places to eat and great shopping right around it.

A fabulous complex, it has numerous retail and dining outlets, while also offering residential suites.

It’s a fine space, complimented by the adjacent attractions such as the fountain and the little tourist train.

After perusing the shopping we had a relaxing coffee break in one of the cafes.

We were so impressed with the property we just had to leave you a 5-star review! Absolutely the highlight of our visit to Glendale!

very crowded, terrible parking. its not worth the effort or the time to come here. The restaurants were just regular restaurants you can find anywhere.

I like the Americana. It has a wide selection of shops and restaurants that you can walk outside. The layout is attractive. The fountains and grass in the middle are very pleasing. Some of the better stores here (in my opinion) are nordstroms, anthropologie, Calvin Klein, Sephora. Some good restaurants, I like the Italian one and I'm blanking on the name (sorry). There's also a Cheesecake Factory if you like that and if you have kids... cause what kid doesn't like Cheesecake Factory? There's also a movie theater here which is great to be able to do dinner and a movie esp with kids. One of their favorite things to do is to get a cupcake from Sprinkles. It's right next to the Glendale Galleria you can literally just walk across the road to get to it.

A few interesting stores including a Disney baby store, mostly upscale shopping and lots of eateries. A long line at the Apple store for the new iPhone, otherwise not crowded on a weekday. Nicely landscaped, lots of kids on the grassy area. Tries to be a copy of The Grove (same builder).

This is the sister property to The Grove. It is a medium sized mall with stunning shops (Tiffany's, Laduree, Sugarfina etc) and gorgeous restaurants ( our favourite was Trattoria Amici).
Parking was easy and cheap.
Stay for the fountain display late at night!

I guess if you're a big shopping fan, this might be a nice place to go. But I hate the parking (big, generic parking garage--hard to navigate), and the fake, Disneyland-ish attempt to make it seem, I don't know, natural, but not? If you want the park, go to a park, not a fake park in the shopping mall. Usual shops, hard to access.

Staying at the Hilton in Glendale. Group chose to drive for dinner and stopped at the Americana. It is an outdoor mall with many restaurants. There is a parking garage.

Always busy place! I lke Barons and Nobels there, and not that fancy.bkand stores! Its always something new in library to catch my attention. But I think people visit here just for brand shopping and spending time with folks, and rarely visit Barones and Nobels or Gkendale Central Library on the other side of the street.

Excellent place to walk, eat, gander, and hang out. The restaurants are top notch or even world class. No mediocrity is allowed. Imagine what Walt Disney might have deigned if he was building a shopping center. Simply a great place, welcoming, and is a link between the institutionism of the Galleria and Brand Boulevard.

The AMERICANA is a delightful place to people watch, shop, go to the movies, have fine dining and sit and watch the fountains. Most shops can be found around the central
park area including Tiffany's, Anthropologie and Free People. Very popular on weekends!

I love the outdoor mall "The Grove", so of course I loved this one. Beautiful outdoor mall, but upscale. It's a great place to soend the day whether shopping or not. You can just go for a casual walk, have a yummy cupcake, hang out at the bookstore, eat at one of the many restaurants, or just people watch. Guaranteed to be as affordable or as unaffordable as you wish!

This is one of those manufactured experiences, like Disney. You've got Bellagio type fountains dancing to music, a wide green space for picnics, and a trolley that moves painfully slow through out the area. But it's all very pleasant and family friendly. As shopping goes, it's mostly very high end, like Tiffany and Nordstrom's, with a couple of specialty shops and an Amazon brick and mortar store, plus a movie theatre. It's also got a Cheesecake Factory and a number of small cafes and restaurants. It's one of those places where you feel safe with the family and to grab a bite or a movie or just watch the fountains.

Please put up signs restaurant validation is voided if you stay over 2 hours even by just a few minutes. I had to pay $11.00 for parking 2 hours and 11 minutes with a 2 hour restaurant validation.

The area has tons of shops and restaurants. Unlike most of La that I saw, the area was very clean. There is a free parking garage nearby, but was very crowded both times I went. A nice way to spend a few hours shopping, or having a meal.

Very pretty location. It's usually crowded. It's got several restaurants and one movie theater. I like how you can reserve your seats ahead of time. I don't like that you have to pay to park, but the stores and restaurants usually validate your ticket. The Apple Store located in here is usually very crowded, so make sure you make an appointment .

Packed on a Sat night. Nice shops, clean and very nice place to hang out and shop while you wait on your table. Great location as its in the middle of downtown Glendale. Being So Cal excellent to be outdoor on warm evening.

Americana is a high end shopping center in Southern California. It is situated in Glendale, but it is a destination for people visiting Los Angeles. It's a fun place to visit. Right across from Americana is another mall, called Glendale Galleria. Both centers are the most successful shopping centers in Los Angeles area.

The Americana at Brand is a beautiful outdoor space, filled with shops, dining options and entertainment. We especially enjoyed it at night when it's all lit up. There's a really nice ambience to it. It has a pretty water fountain and just seems to cover all the bases, right down to the movie theatre! Enjoy!

This mall has really done a great job setting up their Christmas lights and decorations. And for the kids there is a Santa village of course. Well functioning parking. There is also one of the few Amazon 4-star stores. A lot of good restaurants and brand stores.

It's a great place for families to hangout, eat and watch a movie. The Americana is an outdoor mall that has a lot of fun things to do.

When you step onto the streets of the Americana, you feel like you are in a European village. You can shop or just stroll. The Cheesecake Factory was our main destination for lunch. Parking in the garage is handy.

The mall itself is your average American mall. There were tons of shops to check out and also places to eat. They had everything from little food kiosks to cheesecake factory and some independently owned restaurants as well. It was also super cute that they had a little trolley that went around the mall for a piece of history!

a huge pond and waterfalls in the center greet you as you come in.

very restfull yet the place can be bustling. if you want to avoid crowds do weekdays

holidays/weekday always busy

nice theater good restaurants. Frida's mex food my fav
but they have cheesecake factory, great for families, lots of value for your money.

Amici, a tad pricey, but the outdoor patio is wonderful on a balmy eve to people watch or look at the fountain.

Barnes and Nobles is my favorite store there. Books and small one of a kind gifts.

you have to pay for parking in the parking structure. some people park in the Galleria and walk over.

the Americana does validate for a period of time. i believe the theater validates for 4 hrs. but watch your time as if you are 15 minutes over you get charged the full hr.

but great place for families and out of town visitors. you can just sit outdoors and not spend alot of money.

Nice outdoor mall to stroll around. Came on a Thursday afternoon, not crowded. Water fountain synchronized to music on the hour. One hour free parking. Very nice restrooms by concierge desk. Grand piano plays by itself. Higher end retail shops and restaurants to check out.

We met our friends here for lunch and saw the Xmas decoration. It was very pretty, even during the day. After having lunch and a long coffee with our friends somewhere else, outside the mall b/c we could not go up to the Griffith Observatory due to heavy traffic, we went back to this place around sunset since heavy traffic around LA. It turned out it was also a good idea b/c it was so beautiful when the lights came on... It's good for shopping (of course) with many places to eat.

Great place to take a stroll and people watch. Great restaurants and great shopping. Casual atmosphere. Good for all ages.

Within a few steps of our hotel. Good place to walk. Bookstore, upscale shops, kiosks. Apparently a train - we saw the tracks, but never saw it running. Fountain with jets set to music. Attractively lit at night. Variety of restaurants and even a cupcake atm. Valet parking.

An easy place for families to gather, couples to go on dates, see movies, and celebrate the holidays. It can be a little over-the-top, especially with the repetitive soundtrack blasting at all hours.

I spent about an hour visiting this outdoor shopping mall, which is enough time to visit many of the stores. There is a large fountain in the middle of the mall, but little else of general interest to the public other than shopping. The stores are of the mid- to upscale variety, but nothing you couldn't find elsewhere. If you're in Glendale and looking for things to do, this isn't necessarily the best place to go. Nearby attractions are far more interesting and will hold your attention for a longer time.

I'm a fashion buyer for a living so there is no doubting I shop at a lot of malls around the world.

What I like about this mall is that it is outdoors and has a great ambience. You can dine in the outdoor restaurants and you feel more like you are in Europe than in an American shopping mall.

The mall is immaculate and has a small selection of great stores anchored with a Nordstrom. It has more upmarket high street stores but not high end stores.

There is a gorgeous fountain in the middle and a strange tram like cart you can hop on and off of if you can't be bothered to walk the 1000m this mall is!!! I guess it's sweet for novelty factor.

Across the road is Glendale and this is a bigger indoor mall but much more american and has more down market stores.

Nice place to visit walking around in a circle checking out the very expensive shops. Has great eating places also at a high price tag. The free part is watching the water fountain with its dancing water show. Went this weekend at night very bad idea Crowded Stroller kids selfies, no one watching where their weee going and not caring. Nice mall for dinner, strolling, watching the fountains. Stay away on holiday

This is very similar to the famous Grove without the farmers market attached. A nice selection of shops and it's unique in the fact that above all the stores are residential condos. It's like their own "little city" with everything they need outside their door!

Good shopping mall - came away with a few purchases! 😀 there is large variety of shops - bought a few items from forever 21 for DD which she is very happy with!

It is a nice place to unwind Friday nights... It has nice restaurants and shops...
Too crowded on the weekend and it is hard to find a parking
Good job Glendalw

Centred around a delightful water fountain working in tune with tasteful music
Relax take a seat maybe grab a coffee or snack at one of the nearby outlets
Then explore the many shops restaurants Take a complimentary Trolley Ride
We were there in December Huge Christmas Tree Snow at timed intervals even a Father Christmas!
Many young families with strollers

Love this place. Great selection of stores, accessible with lots of great restaurants and coffee shops. Lovely small open park right at the center. Ample parking.

Too many people on the weekend, and not much to do unless you shop and wonder around. Pacific theatres are old, dirty and over crowded, and now $15 a ticket. We are staying away....

Nice place to walk around and shop. A little bit of everything. Big store names and small shops too.

We stayed at hotel across the street and after walking through an alley way we stumbled into what the best way to describe is a cross between Vegas and Disneyland. There is music blaring from the tops of the buildings which are apartments above and very high end chain stores below in the round. The huge water pool and fountain in the center constantly burps and splashes, nothing relaxing about it. Not to mention the trolley that makes the loop while the conductor annoucing the great shopping deals to be had. I guess you could think of it as a mini tourist attraction, somewhere to forget the real world outside its walls and happy to help you spend your money. Just didn't feel right.

A Grove like mall in Glendale has something for everybody. H & M and Tiffany's. A new Tesla or just a movie. Easy to get into and out of. Big enough, but not super sized. The central area gives a town square vibe to the area. During the Holidays it can be quite
festive and jolly. You can eat or shop outside which is a plus. I like going to a movie here in the late evening. Parking is super quick at that time, and even at that late hour it has proven to be safe as well as convenient.

Great place to walk around specially during Christmas time.
The huge tree and the illuminating water show is great
Make reservations at Cheesecake Factory for best view

Beautiful place, but always crowded and hard to find parking. Most places are overpriced for what they carry.

Now this is a very good place to hangout with friends. Uou can visit stores, go oi the movies, read at Barnes & Noble or just sit and relax while you listen to the music that goes alog with the water show.

Discovered this place after eating lunch at Din Tai Fung. Beautiful shopping center, almost as nice as Fashion Plaza. Nice lawn to relax while watching the fountains. Cute streetcar that shuttles people through the center.

This is much like the Grove but without the Farmers Market. It has great stores and a number of very good restaurants. You can sit and people watch, take in a movie or have lunch or dinner.

We enjoy the family atmosphere and strolling around the outside from store to store. It fills up on weekends when the weather is great.

Love the place! It's like a Disney version of a shopping mall. Beautifull decorated for christmas, and santa's house for pictures!! Loved it!! Few stores but the best basic ones. It was very nice to walk around with family and friends

Great outdoor mall, nice shops and restaurants with outdoor seating and big beautiful fountain. But it is small mall that you can finish it in an hour.
They have parking structure, the first hour for free and 2nd hour for $3.

This is a very pleasant place
It has nice shops, good restaurants, movie theater and nice landscape
We had dinner in Katsuya which is a very good restaurant

Relaxing placeb to unwind, clean, cozy small place to shop for quality items, savor delicious foods and a spacious garden to relax after a day of fun... The cinemas offer a wide selection of movies with very comfortable and clean place to watch... Parking structure and offers huge parking structure...?

Love to visit this spot. I grew up around this area and love to visit. I usually have lunch at the Nordstrom cafe ( always great food) and sit outside and look over the balcony. They always have music and the dancing fountain . The shops are mainly designer. I stick to Nordstrom’s! It just makes me happy to be there :)

I loved walking around the beautiful Xmas lit shops and eating at the various restaurants. A must visit for anyone visiting LA.

I used to go there almost everyday and just walk around. During Christmas time, this place is incredible and they have the biggest Christmas tree in the area.
Some very nice stores and restaurants around and a walking distance from many other areas.

Is a place where you can see the fountains have magical shows filled with music (similar to the fountain in Las Vegas Nevada). There is a FREE RIDE in a trolleys all over the Americana for ALL ages, you just sit and enjoy the ride all around the Americana.So many SHOPPING options,(Glendale galleria is steps away). Cheesecake Factory is one of my favorite restaurants at the AMERICANA if you sit outside you can see from your table the fountain show while you have a dinner with your family or friends. They have the famous Sprinkles cupcakes here. During the month of December go with friends or family, enjoy a coffee or crepe or just enjoy the tree, santas village and lights and fake snow show.

I live down the street from the Americana, so the family and I would spend a lot of time here. It's pretty pricey to shop here and parking is too, unless you get a validation from a restaurant or theater. I would recommend coming for a movie and nice walk after. Shopping is better online to save money.

It's a beautiful place to get outside on a nice day, have some lunch at one of the many restaurants, do a little shopping and enjoy the beautiful fountain that dances to music. ou can even catch the latest movie at the theatre!

Place to relax and enjoy shoping with ur family and have a lot of great photo spots. Close to JC penny, Bloomingdales and Macy's.

The shops, the restaurants, the fountains, the park - good ambiance and vibes - especially for a leisurely evening!

This Mall was beautiful. Its got everything! I'd definitely visit this mall again the next time we are back in LA

We often visit this place because we live nearby. I bring my friends here too every time they visit us here in Glendale. It's world class shopping, dining, entertainment and luxury apartments. We love this place so much that after shopping we sit by the fountain (Vegas style music) to relax, eat ice cream and enjoy the view. I recommend to step aboard the Trolley that will take you around from Americana Way to Caruso. Lucky to live here.

Greatest place , lived there for a year! Loved everything about it! The shops! The food! Easy to get to! Fun at Christmas time!

I love The Americana, such a great place to shop and walk around, you find many stores and restaurants.

This outdoor mall is lovely. It’s a perfect place to stroll around & relax no matter who you are...singles, couples, families. It’s beautiful, safe and has lots to offer including a wide variety of shops, restaurants & even a movie theatre. Plus a parking garage.

The Americana is a great place to visit! Really pretty with the fountains that shoot up to music. Restaurants are great and there are a great variety of stores. Something for all ages!

Lots of top name stores. Nice outdoor spaces and some green space as well. Very good eating establishments. Nothing to complain about. Shopping simply does not excite me.

While staying at the Glendale Hilton, we were able to take their free shuttle to this mall. We had a really nice visit that included going to a movie and dinner. There is a lot of shopping and so many other things to do here. Be sure to go at night to see the fountains, they are absolutely gorgeous.

Open air mall with lovely trail, small though. Best time to be here is 2 hours before sun set. Recommended if you are in or near downtown LA. You can visit the grove (same concept) at the same day and if you want to make your day full head after that to the promenade in 3rd street in Santa Monica.

The Americana at Brand is A truly unique and amazing Experience...for both shopping and Restaurants and just about everything else. Nothing else is quite like it..including a trolley car around the whole place and wonderful Water Park Displays...Especially great at Christmas and weekend nights and it is lke shopping and dinning in Disneyland without the admission fee...... Parking is the only drawback, but there is a multistory dedicated parking structure for the whole place,if you can get into it..Built and maintained by the developers of The Grove in West LA...Very special.....

The Americana is a really great place to walk around, eat, shop, or go out for a solo, family, or date night. It is well lit so there isn't much to worry about in terms of safety. There are movie theaters to catch the latest film and the restaurant quality is pretty good.

If you are coming here specifically to complete all your Christmas shopping, a mall may provide more options in terms of stores. If you're just looking to do some window shopping or check out a few popular stores while eating some ice cream then Americana will be more than enough.

Overall: I would recommend this place to a friend. I come here often and always enjoy myself or have a good time with a friend.

Really nice mix of shops and restaurants. Centrepiece is a fountain and green which they use extensively for things like Pilates. Really nice food available.

Most beautiful place ,shops, restaurant , movie , good food, you can find for everyone something interesting ,something enjoyable .
This is the place you need to visit , people for any age welcome.

Enjoyed strolling around after dinner. Was very nicely decorated for Christmas. Plenty of shopping and dining choices.

No offense meant - but this area that looks like a sophisticated European district is one of the finest areas in L.A. and uplifts that - otherwise mostly dull - town. At night it is a fairy-land of lights, music and gushing fountains. At daytime - a heaven for shopping. The best places to dine and stroll.

Every time I walk in Americana I feel so happy when I see people enjoying the beauty of this place children running freely and beautifull shops and nice restaurants. And there is so many programs for little ones and for grown ups and also very safe place for every one. I just love it and I will recommend to everyone to visit American.

For starters you park your car beneath their version of the Eiffel tower!
Then you can board a trolley car with a conductor etc.

Chandlers in the main Street!
Everything is way over the top and yet I really enjoyed my visit.
The crowing glory was the giant Christmas tree .
I went to visit the Barnes and Nobel book shop which was well worth a visit but the place itself was something else !!!!

My wife and I really enjoyed walking around the Americana.
Just a great atmosphere at night.
The Tesla store is way cool.
Grab some dinner somewhere and sit out by the fountains.
Super time...we will be back.

They have nice stores and restaurants (some independently owned).
It's a very nice walk with a very cute fountain. They have a cute trolley that you can ride for a little history of the place.

This is a nice place to spend an evening, particularly if the weather is warm. There is a lot to see and do including food and shopping. "People watching" is another possibility and the kids have things to do as well. Remember where you park!

I love coming to the Americana and often bring out of town guests as I live 15 minutes from here. There are nice restaurants and the fountain show every hour is nice. The theater is great here and the theater and most restaurants will give some validation for parking. (For a really cheap time, park next door at the Galleria for free and walk over). Enter parking near the InNOut burger and as you walk to the Americana, you will pass a small restaurant I really like called Granvilles. Try the pomegranate cosmo! Love the trolly (free), the music and overall atmosphere.

The Americana at Brand is a spectacular creation. Calling it a mall would be a crime. This totally enclosed space is a visual wonderland. A gorgeous retail village. A beautiful main avenue with 2 story retail spaces on either side. Lots of miandering trees and grassy areas. While exploring this little gem, you have no idea you are right in the middle of Glendale. Shopping at all price points, excellent aray of food choices, as well as a beautiful movie theater complex. I was very impressed with this fantastic location. What a splended place.

A fun place to hang out... The shopping at Glendale galleria is good and the restaurants and atmosphere just round the corner at Americana makes it a good place to visit, we ate at the Cheesecake Factory which was very good

If you are in Glendale, it is worth a stop at The Americana at Brand. There are a lot of shops and places to eat.. As with any popular place, parking and crowds, can be an issue.

If you go at night the fountain looks great when it is lit up. There is always old music playing and it's hustling and bustling all the time. There are lots of fun restaurants and shops to check out as well.

This is a beautiful spot to shop or just to spend an hour or two. World class shops, and a beautiful cinema. Don't miss; it's right across from the Glendale Galleria.

Amazing place for fun and it is great for shopping check out the underamour store great deals Barnes and Noble is good

Very nice shopping mall. Clean and a very cool location with nice springwaters, cafees and everything

The valet parking is great and most restaurants will give you a voucher to cover the parking. This is a beautiful outdoor mall. We enjoyed walking around and strolling.

Everything close, clean, attractive. Close to City Centre Glendale and other shopping mall. Easy parking

You can find so many options!!! Foodies will love it. Nice place to walk around, buy things, coffe and cinema!!!!

Great outdoor mall which is very clean and tidy. Many good quality shops and the bonus of being next to the glendale maĺl as well. As well of the shops it has a good range of restaurants including a cheesecake factory. A nice fountain and even a vintage tram. Also has a cinema. Parking is charged so park in the glendale mall which is free.

Unique in its a Town Sq setting vs X street Glendale Galleria.
Resturants look fab & did or does have a Tesla outlet near Pacific Theatre.
Could use more stores But is Hybrid: retail business section & apts..
Dislike parking, spaces 2 small & crowded.
Best to park in Galleria, unless U use Valet service.
Like the trolley they use.
Saw Star Wars movie here once.

take the trolley car ride and eat outside at cheesecake factory to watch the dancing waters and hear the music at night

Huge place and worth the visit. Extremely crowded. Great for food and shopping. The mall across has everything, too. Nespresso boutique is beautiful and amazing. People work there are awesome. Thanks!

I am not much for shopping, but if I had to shop for a gift,this is where I go. This shopping/restaurant/entertainment area ‘has it all’ including a movie theater. Once you figure out the parking, it’s a fun way to spend a lunch hour and be outside.

My friend and I stumbled upon this place by accident and I’m so glad we did as we came back another 2 more times. We loved the shops, a mix of high street and luxury, and the food options were great too. The best part is the gorgeous landscape and picnic area where we got an ice cream and just lay in the sun ☀️, I love that they provide blankets to sit on. The atmosphere was just lovely. A cute hidden gem I never knew was in the city, I’d go here instead of the grove for sure.

One of the many places I frequent in LA! It's so nice just to sit near the fountain and people watch! There aren't much stores in this mall compared to the one right across it, most stores are high end specialty shops, but this is the best place to dine in. The best is still Cheesecake Factory (even though the line can get long). This mall also has a movie house. Parking is a bit expensive, so whenever I visit, I park at the one located at Artsakh street.

Nice size mall...lovely center with water show to older music. Holidays they have snow..and now are celebrating Chinese new year...

Well, I hope the crowds and lively atmosphere mean success. Americana added a lot to the Glendale scene. Enjoy the restaurants and some of the shops.

Parking is better designed than some other area similar places....even smaller ones.

This mall is beautiful! It is an outdoor mall with a huge water feature with a fountain. It is very clean, nicely kept up and has a lot of character. The stores are on the higher end.

We visited this shopping/walking area when we were staying in Glendale. Best thing to do while being there. Conveniently close to LA downtown, universal studios and Burbank areas.

The Americana has a great assortment of stores from Apple to books and cooking. There are plenty of restaurants from casual to expensive steaks. A large 18 screen movie theater rounds out the choices!

with nothing special to do, we took a drive to the Americana. Parks and walked around. Window shopped at the same stores we go to weekly but this was just a get out of the house. The water show was great, trolley was fun and spent hours in Barnes and Noble.
It was a nice nite

The people who own The Grove and the Americana do everything absolutely first-class. They run a charming street trolley around, and the fountains feature light and water shows with great music. The Concierge positively embodies genuine concern for customer service. The planning and the operation evidence consideration for the shopper at every turn.

Big and small groups family and romantic couple... all suits in this elegant mall..restaurants and shops, we always do our morning walk from our house to Americana and start our day with coffee at E bar, and bfast at le pain cotidien ... awesome a... and never fail to amaze me everyday.... I live a quarter mile from the place and never get tited of coming here days and nights since it was opened on day one...

Well this place was almost kid boggling for people from sleepy Perth, Western Australia! It seems there was something going on at every turn - fabulous shops, a wonderful array of restaurants and bars, a dancing fountain, a bandstand complete with live jazz band and people kicking back in the lawns availing themselves of the blankets available to enjoy the music and ambience. Wish I’d had more time to explore!

The American is a beautiful outdoor mall with green lawns , a trolley ride and a spectacular water fountain. The shops are mostly high end, Tiffany’s, JnCrew, Anthropology, Calvin Klein ect. There is a great selection of teas truants with lovely outdoor seating. The movie theater has 18 screens and almost always availability. It’s a nice place for dinner and a movie. Also the parking is fairly convenient. That said it can be very crowded on the weekends. If you like the energy of people coming and going and enjoying the park like atmosphere it’s the place for you. If you want peace and quiet go during the week.

This is like the Disneyland of malls—completed with fountains, music, picturesque streets, and even security guards wearing retro outfits. It’s such a beautiful place to spend a day or an evening. There are several amazing restaurants here. Even if you’re not interested in shopping, it’s still a great way to walk around and chat with your friends while enjoying the beautiful area.

the Americana is a nice place to walk around for those visiting from out of town and staying in the area. Lot of dining options . Large Theater, Apple store . . .they even have a Tesla dealership. worth checking out

The Americana at the Glendale Brand is absolutely beautiful. The scenery and ambiance is second to none. The shopping is good and there are a decent amount of restaurants as well.

When I want to just relax, especially during the holidays, I like coming here. The property is decorated so well during the holidays. And it is way less crowded than the Grove too. The Grove gets really packed. The Americana is just my pace. They had a huge Christmas tree there too. That was so nice.

This place is soo gorgeous, unfortunately, the dancing waters weren't on due to the movie in the park which was disappointing but I will have to just go back! Check out the view from the Hotels window looking down, it's a great view. Also, have a look through the cinema's and look up at the ceiling art work! It's gorgeous!
And have a look in the 3-floor book shop and look out the glass doors at the view! It's amazing!

I been to this place and u found all what I want ...
Cinema , restaurants , shops I want and also the atmosphere I am looking for ...

The place is awesome and deserve to be visited regularly for any thing you want to do ... Weekends looks more live than weekdays ....

The fountain and the green ground around it is nice and you will see cute kids playing around... So lively
The music just good give you a good relaxing mood ... I loved it simply...

This place is just awesome. We took a stroll after dinner and watched the water fountain and the beautiful grounds makes for a nice walk. They even have a trolley during the day.

Too tawdry looks like taken from the 80s
Didn’t like it at all Not enough choices of food
Looks like the 80s

We stumbled on The Americana because we happened to be staying in a hotel across the street, and what a great find! It has a wonderful assortment of shops, from H&M to Tesla and everything in between (including a three-story Barnes and Noble -- heaven) and a fun, festive atmosphere. Lots of choices for dining as well. It's so pretty and cheerful at night, with lights everywhere and dancing fountains, we loved going for a walk after dinner to window-shop and people-watch.

Enjoyed our day at this outdoor shopping center. Easy parking, very clean and festive. Made my wife happy so I was good. Wonderful Barnes and Noble and something for everyone makes for a fun outing.

This is a great outdoor mall; probably one of the best I've seen. I knocked off one star for two reasons: I don't need to hear Frank Sinatra all the time, in fact, ever, and the statue is well, horrible. I call it the Great Retail God. Say a prayer at it's anatomically too-large feet, 'cause the prices here are way up there and you're gonna need sales - but for window shopping, it's great. Nice place to hang. If you want to re-live your amusing adolescent memories of hanging out at the mall, it's quite the hang-out for Glendale teenagers on a weekend night. Also a hangout for young moms with babies on the weekdays. It opened during the nadir of the Great Recession, and when I would go there, my concerns for people losing their homes and jobs just melted away. It's always happy here no matter who's in office; some would call that artificial, but in a tense city like L.A., it's kind of refreshing, at least for a couple of hours. Then it's back to reality. Parking? Ugh, just like everywhere else in L.A., but if you don't mind walking a few blocks, you might find a good spot. Great restaurants and shopping across the street too. Quite beautiful at Christmas - they go ALL out!

Beautiful place with a lot of cool shops ( Tesla, Apple store, Nordstrom, Disney baby, etc) and nice restaurants (Bacardi, Cheesecake Factory, Frida). There is an outside bar across from Sephora, where you can enjoy a fountain show every hour while having a drink. Parking is free with validation, or you can park at Glendale galleria for free and walk across the mall to get to Americana.

Nice choice of restaurants and stores. Very interesting place to visit to shop and eat or just to walk around.

Husbands, bring your wives. Moms, bring your kids. Kids, don't fall in the huge fountain when you are lost i wonder while staring at the water show.

The Americana is an open-air mall that feels more like Downtown Disney only with a more even mix of kids and grownups. There's even a trolley that serves little purpose other than incentive for kids to be good "if you want to ride the trolley later". There are a lot of stores especially when you can walk across the street to the Glendale Galleria when the weather gets too hot. The huge water fountain with music-synchronized water spouts that are nice looking at any time but perform a "show" every hour adds to the theme park feel without the down side of long lines.

The movie theater is top notch with I-Max 3D. As clean and upscaled as you could want it to be while spilling popcorn.

There's a number of restaurants but I go with either The Cheese Cake Factory or Katsuya Sushi depending on what my family is in the mood for. The prices aren't too bad considering the location and Katsuya is excellent sushi. There are of course the ice cream and pretzel vendors as well.

Shopping is diverse. You can take your wife to Barneys and browse until you finally get the nerve to look at the price and then run out or spend your time in The Apple Store or Sony Store or any of the other shops which range in price from reasonable to indecent and from electronics to toys to purses. As I said, there is also the Glendale Galleria across the street which has everything any mall has. It ends up feeling like the Galleria is the indoor section of the Americana and they are one big shopping experience. It barely feels like crossing the street and more like getting to the other area.

All in all, take it from someone who hates shopping - this is the least painful way to allow your wife to satisfy her "needs" while being able to supervise the rate at which your bank account shrinks....and kids love it too.

This is a new wave of “malls.” They make it outside and more pleasant without being stuff. You can bring your dog or a blanket and sit on the lawn. It’s a great vibe there. You can people watch for hours

There are hotels, restaurants and shopping. What more do you need? The ambiance is perfect day or night. Tired of walking? Take the trolley. Within walking distance to the Galleria so you can actually shop ‘til you drop. Check out the variety of restaurants. Rest by the beautiful fountains. Great place for an evening stroll. Great for dates or families. You can thank me later.

Warning to customers!
I bought a 56-inch FORON Poron electric sink and extended the warranty for 5 years for an extra charge.
Two weeks ago, the pipe was broken. Five days later, the tech came in and said he'd bring the new card in seven days.
Today they called and said they'd come in this afternoon, but I'm not sure if the ticket would fit. If not, I'll have to wait again! Tomorrow Friday and then the weekend.
We're a family of 5 people and still can't cook!
You can't accept that situation, especially after I paid for expanding insurance to get a better service.
Bad service, problematic product – be careful before you buy this product or expand insurance in this place!
It's even unacceptable that once the day is decided I'm the last on the list, then time runs out and it's postponed again.

Though I'm not much of a 'high end shopper'-this place was fun to stroll through and do some people watching. Window shopping, taking in the beautiful water foundation and grassy park in the center of this outdoor mall, was a pleasant way to recover from jet lag before encountering DTLA and NoHo. There is another huge shopping mall across the street with a variety of shopping options and parking garage. Enjoy!

Good shop and restaurant selection, with good parking and safe. Good options for everyone to choose from.

The Americana is a good place to shop, eat and hangout with friends. I like it here since it is also just across from the Glendale Galleria Mall so you have extra more place to shop if you do. It find anything you like at the Americana. This place also has ample of parking or you can always park at the Glendale Galleria Mall which is always free.

Came here w my UK clients as we were staying in Glendale and it’s very nicely decorated for the holidays. The kids loved the tram and the huge tree. There’s plenty of shopping options as well.

Whenever we visit LA we always go to the Americana! Before Americana we used to go to The Grove ( same owner ) but we prefer the Americana. It's just beautiful! It's outdoors and you can spend the whole day wondering around, eating, having a coffee or just people watching! We always park across the street at Glendale Galleria for free and cross the street to the Americana. The Galleria itself is a huge indoor mall. Both malls are very clean. It's very pleasant to walk around listening to the music, watching the fountain show or taking a ride around the mall in the trolley.
Besides the many restaurants there's also a movie theater with a beautiful lobby.
Our favourite place though is the Barnes and Noble balcony on the 3rd floor where you can sit and watch it all from up above.

I am at this mall often, although rarely for shopping. Most of the stores are higher end than I usually shop at, so I tend to hit Sephora or Apple only. There are a lot of good dining options which is why I am usually here. The display at Christmas is outstanding. You can get parking validated with a purchase but only for a couple hours. I tend to park across the street for free at the Galleria and walk over if I need to go to both malls or will be longer than the validation offers. This mall is very busy on the weekend and during the holiday season. It's great for people watching, all kinds of folks are strolling around here.

I feel like I am walking down Main Street at Disneyland less all the mouse hats. Caruso was thinking outside the box when he came up with this outdoor mall concept which has become a mega hang out for many locals and people from surrounding cities. This place is always busy no matter what day I come here to either eat or do a little window shopping.

I have to say this is one if the most attractive mall I have ever been to. The whole thing is a relaxing experience from parking to wondering in the air conditioned shops. Great design and blown away just enjoying the water jets and swing music.

What I love about the Americana at Brand is the atmosphere. It's got a really cool vibe to it.

It's really an outside mall but it's more than that. You can go and not even shop. I like to people watch. Grab a coffee or some tasty desserts from the vendors around the fountain and just sit back and relax as you look at the beautiful fountain, listen to the music and watch kids play on the green.

If you do want to shop you'll find a variety of stores. Most are a little bit on the pricier side but you will find H&M, XXI Forever, Urban Outfitters, American Eagle Outfitters and J. Crew that are more reasonable in price.

The store selection is always changing, probably because of the high rents. So a store you like today may not be here next month. But by the same token, a new favorite store of yours might move in next month too.

This shopping center has a great selection of restaurants from Italian to Japanese to Mexican. My favorite ones are Frida for Mexican and Cheesecake Factory.

I also like that there's a multi-story Barnes and Noble book store and a movie theater.

There's plenty of parking and they valet as well. If you can't find what you're looking for here just cross the street and you'll be at the Glendale Galleria mall.

There are always cool events happening here throughout the year including the lighting of a huge Christmas tree during the holidays.

Bring the kids and get on the trolley. It's free and it takes you around the whole shopping center.

My only complaint is that sometimes it does get too busy and there are way too many people, especially around the elevators and escalators to the parking structure, making it hard to walk.

This is one of the nicest shopping centers in all of Southern California.

When I visit Glendale this is the first place I hit. Dinner and a movie, the fountain, the tram. Just walking around is magical. Christmas is a special time there too.

There is something for everyone, when its having a nice business dinner or a great time out with friends shopping. There is something for everyone here from Cafes to Shopping to watching movies at the Pacific Theater to high end business dinners. If you are a tourist, you must visit the Americana. You will get fine dining, eat from a variety of restaurants and brands like the Disney Store or Apple, Drybar, and restaurants like The Cheesecake Factory, Sprinkles Cupcakes, LA Frida, Din Tai Fung are here. There is also a little trolley making rounds throughout the whole place, so enjoy a ride.

If you love hoards of people and expensive stores and a trolley that literally goes in a small circle this is a perfect place for you. I am still trying to figure out the hanging chandelier in the open air that looks to me like a second thought . I also am not to keen on the statues in the water. The best thing if any is the fake snow they blow out during the holidays. My advice if you don't have money stay away! It is really overpriced and has turned our quaint Glendale into a nite-mare at the holidays. Not my favorite thanks to Mr. Caruso

This is one of the most beautiful shopping centers you will ever experience. All super high-end shops and restaurants. It has a large beautiful park with a massive fountain in the center. Valet parking. A train, you can ride, meanders around the shopping areas. This is more than just a shopping experience, it is an afternoon or evening in a beautiful spot.

My favorite spot in LA.
This place is great! Atmosphere is chill and cool.
Shopping, having a nice meal and great drinks!

This is a great place to go for people of all ages! We love taking family and visitors here! There is a trolley! We really enjoy the water and music. Everything lights up at night! Good places to eat all around. Shopping...

We were staying in Sherman Oaks and looking for a reasonably close date night. We ended up here and had a lovely time walking around until we found a restaurant we wanted (tried to stay away from chains we have in our area). The fountain resembles the Bellagio one, in sync with Sinatra music. There is a nice faux lawn where children and families played. We appreciated the free parking (after being validated at the restaurant we selected, Amici Italian). We wanted to go to the Las Vegas seafood buffet, but the line was out the door! If we had come a bit earlier, we could have enjoyed the happy hour specials at many of the restaurants.

There are some pretty amazing restaurants, as well as some great boutiques. There's a theatre house where current movies are screened and on specific summer evenings outdoor movies are shown on the lawn. Great picnic opportunity! Tickets can be purchased prior to screening. Visit the The Americana's website for upcoming days and times.

So many stores and places to eat. Felt very safe and enjoyed spending time here. Not too far from our hotel.

Great spot to sprinkle watch and just walk around while in the Glendale area. In the evening the fountains look awesome.

Readily accessible parking, a vibrant atmosphere and great restaurants make this a fabulous place to spend an afternoon. Excellent place to bring small children to delight in the fountain or play in the green. Movie theater on site.

Lovely place to visit on a dark evening. We sat at an outside bar and had very nice cocktails. Everyone very friendly and overall happy atmosphere. Pretty decorations and lights. Did not dio the shoos but am sure they would be just as good. Definitely worth a visit.

You need place to walk around and check the shops, try different restaurant and have some fun come here. It's small town downtown but looks like NYC or Chicago. I like it.

To be fair, I was here on a Friday night. It was wall to wall crowded. However, this is a beautiful place to shop with the Galleria Mall next door. Stores for everyone, food and a fountain.

This is a beautiful shopping environment where you can shop, dine and meet friends. In this season I go there every night. I enjoy waking at nights. I find this place very safe and entertaining. Lots of restaurants and shops. I usually eat at Cheesecake Factory. I love there herb rubbed salmon and the bread is delicious. I spend lots of time in Nordstrom. I love everyone that works in Chanel boutique. To name a few of the girls that usually help me is Natalie, Monique, Talar and everyone else. I can’t remember everyone’s names, but everyone is nice at Nordstrom. I love that store and always shop there. I also stop at Sees candies 🍭. I love, love, love.......their chocolates. I get my coffee at Barns and Noble. They have Coffee Bean at the second floor. They have a balcony overlooking the fountains. It has a beautiful view. If you are visiting LA, Americana at Brand is a must see place. You will enjoy it.

A lot of place to eat and the ambiance is perfect for first time visitors. There is also a fountain and it is a great picture spot for remembrance. The French place is great and the service was good.

Has lots of cool shopping stores, staff are friendly, bathrooms are extremely clean, cool restaurants by the fountains. Avoid valet parking as it can take forever!
Want to chill and watch the fountains playing to the sounds of some oldies this is a great place to be.

It's a great place to shop. I bought some clothes at H&M and some more make up again at Sephora. There are many other brand shops here! It's a cool pace to hangout and shop!.

Go there even if you do not need to shop. It's neat just to walk around and enjoy the scenery, beautiful
Store fronts, dancing fountains, upscale eateries. We went twice today. This morning to shop and this evening for a movie. Use their parking garage. First hour is free.

Great atmosphere and the tree and trapping are just grand. Wonderful shops, decorations and many good places to choose from.

Plenty of parking in garages. Upper end shopping. Has several restaurants of all prices. Enjoyed hanging out by fountain and watching the show. Great place for finding dessert from the many places around. Sprinkles cupcakes, Cheesecake Factory, ice cream, chocolates.

Very nice place with lots of shops & restaurants to choose from. Love it.the fountain and the architecture is amazing.

AMERICANA!!!......is just another beautiful place to visit when you are around Glendale. Fine shops, movie theaters, fine dining. You can spend a good long day and not get bored. Glendale is always been a beautiful place and The Americana just makes it more beautiful!!!!.

What a charming place to walk and enjoy the lights and Christmas cheer. My wife and I loved wandering and looking at all the hustle and bustle. The Christmas decorations are very well done. They have a trolley and snow flakes falling to add to the ambience.

Still a good mall with upscale stores and good restaurants. It was under renovation when we visited. But it is almost against the law for a mall to charge mall patrons to park. Really? Don't the stores want people to shop and linger and spend money? Versus thinking about the cost of parking while they strolled around?

Great place. Very safe - they have good security. Nice stores. Food from kiosk to sit down. Lots to choose from. Highly recommended.

This is my favorite spot in LA, I really love the place , great scenery, festive atmosphere all year long, great fountain in the middle, and great for shopping too!

from the APPLE store to the movies, you cannot go wrong at
the americana at Brand. Rick Caruso knows what he is doing
and there is nothing finer than the selection of restaurants,
along with the other incentives, which include a farmers market
oct he week=ends and a grassy spot to rest your bones.

Lovely little shopping and eating plaza! Quiet and relaxing right off the Main Street hustle and bustle! Beautiful water fountain with light at night and entertainment!

Whoever thought of designing this space is brilliant . An indoor open area with plenty of grass to lay on the lawn, relax, people watch, watch the fountain dance , the little train going around it all enclosed by condo , major and specialty stores and restaurants . All in one space that might give the impression that it is small, but with so much to do , that you can spend a whole day there easily. Photo opportunities are endless, possibilities are endless, a must go!

There are much better things to do than wasting time here
The place is overcrowded , not much to do , and restaurants has no service at all

Americana is lively and "chill". It was good to stroll shop. Not pressured by too many people (but we did visit on a Tuesday). There are a lot of shops and dining places to choose from. Americana is just right- enough shops to entertain, enough space to move around. It is just right.

The Americana & The Grove have brought back the allure of mall shopping experience to Los Angeles in an open space.

Parking: You can self-park or valet. You get 1-hr free self-park, which you can validate for up to 2 to 3 hours, at Nordstrom, the theater or at the concierge desk, with receipt. Spend over or close to $249 and you get free valet for a day, but if you self-park you might get free parking and a valet voucher for another day. After you accumulate 14k Caruso points, you get free self-park for 1 year. I normally come via Central Ave and look for 4th floor - I think 3rd floor is mainly spaces for disabled. Alternatively, if you go to Glendale Galleria, enter Grand or Central Ave, and walk to Americana - without worry to validate parking (Glendale Galleria is a different property & no Caruso rewards there). If you lose your ticket, little to no help at concierge: Maximum $18 -- I said I was VIP and have free parking for a year (which I do technically) and they opened the gate for me at no charge.

Caruso Rewards: Sign up and get loyalty points for purchases at the Grove and the Americana. Sometimes they double the points per $1 spent.
All things being equal, the Caruso rewards program does become a tie breaker.

Concierge: They validate your parking, upload your sales receipt to Caruso via app, provide bottled water, can charge your phone or lend you a charger or lend you an umbrella when it rains (which is rare).

Lounge: Free wi-fi but you have to provide email to Citi, sponsor (which is a hassle). Sofas available. Expect to see parents with toddlers at the lounge.

Stores: I frequent Nordstrom (men's - Zegna Quindici ties $285 to $385 & Bosca wallets $80 to $115); Barneys New York: tiny selection) but convenient for returns; Tumi (good selection - compared to Outlet at Citadel); MAC cosmetics (You can also purchase within Nordstrom), Tiffany & Co (they ate owned by Avon, hehe; so, don't take the bait about being ignored to get you to purchase to show you can afford this hardware - just have a goal in mind of what you want to see: Me, pens, card holder $145 & $135 bracelets) & Apple Store. Many other stores ~

Food: I've visited Nordstrom eCafe, Bar Verde & lil Italian deli next to Tumi (soup & sandwich combo ~ $10). Jersey Mike's sub (try the #99 in the secret menu) - Also, I usually go to Foxy's coffee shop across the street or In & out next door - or, King Taco nearby. Watch a game: Buffalo Wings nearby - or Bar Verde at Nordstrom (Hendricks Martini ~ $10). Happy hour at corner Japanese restaurant near the fountain.

Amenities: Water fountain, central music, kids playing area(s), trolley.

Dome: Find the words "Seek and You Shall Find" - in Latin, of course.

Kodak Moments: Good themed photo locations near concierge desk and throughout public access areas around fountain - be aware of surroundings & safe of trolley and people walking by ~

ATM: BofA atm nearby.

Scams: Be aware of people befriending you and playing a trick where they ask you questions - write in a piece of paper (then hand you a piece of paper - using some kind of trickery you find your answers on the paper) ; fortune tell you and then ask you for a big donation - I've seen more than a handful of willing participants walk to the atm and give them loads of cash. I reported it to Security.

Be Safe & Enjoy!

It reminds me a lot of The Grove which I think are owned by the same owners. Very clean outdoor shopping facility. Great shops, high end but still found great deals and great restaurants with my fav being Sprinkles!!!
I would come back here again! Only wish we could have malls like this in Toronto.

We took an Uber over this location because my daughter wanted a cupcake out of a ATM machine ...that would be Sprinkles . What the heck , why not . They actually are pretty darn good . Once she was good and sugared up she wandered over to the open park area ...which is great for people watching , fountain watching and for my teenage dancer? A open spot to do aerials .
There are a few good tourist friendly restaurants like Katsuya and Cheesecake Factory. Stores that you see in most malls like Apple , Forever 21 and H&M .
If they say malls are dying then this place might be the new concept to keep retail stores alive . It has retail on the main floors and gorgeous residential apartments above . There is a trolley that runs through the shopping center. The open park is a great place to hang out ( or do aerials) .
We definitely are putting this on our must do on our next trip in .

Located across from Glendale Galleria. Nice place to walk around. There's a water fountain that syncs to music. Lots of nice stores and very clean and well maintained.

Whether it’s the dancing fountains, beautiful nighttime scenery, upscale shops, the 18-screen cinema or inviting restaurants, there are hours of fun and enjoyment st the Americana. We enjoy just walking around the place, eating in one of the many restaurants or just having a cup of joe at one of the cafes around. The indoor Galleria mall is just steps away. Free garage parking is available.

As a general rule, I am not a big fan of shopping malls, but this one I do like. It's a lively outdoor place with lots to offer, with a good selection of shops and eateries.

Walked thu' this mall en route to dinner and spent half an hour wandering around in wonderment. I loved the look and ambience with upscale shops and outlets plus it had a Samsung popup display. Quaint tramway and musical fountains.

My favorite place in Los Angeles. Clean area, green, surrounded with shops, cafes. A little tram will take you around. Dancing and singing fountains are amazing.

Further town away from LA city center, but this place feels safer than LA itself, no homeless people around the street, clean streets everywhere. You will feel safer here than in any LA towns. Has a lot of shopping centers, if you're into shopping.

Our hotel was across the street and we were so happy to discover this place! Beautiful area with shopping and dining and lovely outdoor spaces to sit and relax.

Great outdoor mall with an indoor mall across the street! Perfect for a daytime/ evening stroll as well. The water fountain plays and has a show at specific times. Great for the family and to hangout with friends

This place takes after The Grove (and is owned/operated by the same company): a shopping center with beautiful architecture, nice landscaping, and a variety of shops. The parking garage is a little tight, but valet is an option if you prefer that. This is a great place to walk around and even just window shop on a nice day. There are also many restaurants in the center and many more within walking distance of the shopping center. Overall, a great shopping experience with tons to eat within walking distance.

Beautiful decorations during the Christmas season. Always something going on. Great restaurants and shopping. Right across the street from the Glendale Galleria. And stop by Philz coffee just across Brand Blvd.

Mixture of high end (Tiffany) and work-a-day (Barnes & Noble) shops, including a multiplex cinema. Very pleasant grounds with a cute trolley that makes a trip around the facility at times. I couldn't find a trolley schedule - maybe evenings and weekends? Not a must-see, but pleasant place with lots of outdoor dining, a fountain pool that sometimes does tricks, etc.

It's not the best shopping experience, but it's a great place to stretch your legs, and enjoy some shopping, dining, movie-going and relaxation at the park. The overall feel is quite nice and there's just enough security walking around that you feel like they're keeping you safe. There's also an infrequent old style trolley that makes a short journey around the tracks.

I came for the second time in my life and first time with my family. My son loved the fountain and he wasted most of my change making wishes haha. It was decorated nicely and they have restaurants if you want to eat.

Terrific venue for shopping, restaurants,and relaxing. Very well thought out and is a must drop in destination

We bump to this place unexpectedly because we intended to visit Sugarfina for candies!
This is a very very very beautiful place I can said which the concept of the buildings integrated with residential, nice restaurants, shopping houses, library, coffee houses and the fountain view!
We came back 2nd time for the lunch and hang around and we back to the same Japanese restaurant for dinner. I can't imagine I can hang such place for lunch till late night. There have a famous Cheesecake Factory which the cakes taste very nice! There have a performance fountain with musical which was so mesmerising and the ambience was so relax and peaceful. We did spend time at Noble and Barnes which there have a balcony can view the overall fountain view. Such a relax place to hang and definitely will come back!

My wife and I recently stayed at a nearby hotel and stumbled upon The Americana at Brand. First and foremost, yes, it's a shopping center with restaurants. That being said, unlike many things in the L.A. area, it felt clean and safe. It's a great stop for you shopaholics with a tempting credit card (or not so great if you're in recovery). I enjoyed that there were a ton of places to shop both indoors and out and maintained decent standards. The restaurant selection nearby was great and offered everything from quaint local dives to the familiar chains and fancy tastes. If you are looking for a great way to kill some time or enjoy shopping and cuisine, this is a worthwhile stop. My wife and I were there near the holidays and the outdoor shopping area was lit up with a beautiful display of lights and had a fun water feature as well. Glad we got lost!

This carefully established and protected living area and the pool in the middle of the shopping and promenade square invites everyone there to join the harmony of the water throughout the day, you feel like life is breathing with the rhythm of the water. It is crowded, but there is no chaos or noise.

It's always busy and always pleasant to take stroll around Americana. Good selection of stores and restaurants as well and you can also find more at the Galleria next door

If you've been to the Grove in LA then you'll notice that Americana is very much like it. It’s so beautiful with the lighting, fountain, statue and the shops and restaurants around. It looks very luxurious but you can eat quite cheap food too and the shops are not all expensive. I found Americana bigger than the Grove and with better options of restaurants.

This is one of the nicest places to shop in the valley. It is quaint and will remind you of an upscale downtown experience. The restaurants and stores are very nice, the yards and public areas are clean and it is just a very relaxing place to visit. If you go during special occasions or holidays it will be very nicely decorated and lots of very fun things to do. Perfect for a first date, perfect for a family and a very easy place to sit and enjoy your friends and family.

Visited at Christmas and it was absolutely delightful. Beautifully decorated for Christmas, lights, artificial snow etc. the shopping is also great, my favourites there being h & m, there’s a lovely kitchen store and of course, the Cheesecake Factory

Great place to take or meet up with visitors. Had dinner and then looked around and took photos weather was enjoyable and many parents with their children enjoying the fountain with music.

I came here alone but wish my wife had been with me. This is perhaps the most beautiful and romantic outdoor mall I've ever experienced. There are great shops restaurants and entertainment surrounding a central courtyard area with a fountain. I will definitely be back!

Has a central outdoor square complete with waterfall, live music and novelty tram that travels around the square. Plenty of shops and restaurants and has its own cinema. The Cheesecake Factory is a firm favourite restaurant. Barnes and noble has a super multi level bookshop with a really nice Starbucks restaurant on the top floor. Plenty of high class stores around the square.

Very nice place. Great atmosphere, wide variety of shops. Great terraces to have a lunch or dinner. Safe area for walking with kids.

We love this place. Always come here to have a dinner and a nice stroll around the fountains with our kids.

This is America at its finest!!! The dream - just lovin it! Summer time is great but the holiday season greatest. Doesn’t matter for what reason you go there: shopping, dining out, strolling around and enjoying the thousands of lights or the dreamland tram, or going to the movies … it is beautifun!!

Another great shopping experience in Glendale, nice shops and restaurants to chose from. It's an open shopping center, with movie theaters, restaurants and brand name shops. Parking is free for the first 90 minutes, but you can validate when you buy anything there.

Since I'm not a shopper, I really like this outdoor mall. It really changes from the crowded people masses to enjoyable, watching the fountains at night is pretty nice.

The Americana is a wonderful place to go out with family and friends. This is an outside mini mall. (similar to Grove at Fairfax, Los Angeles). There is something to do for any age group. You can watch a movie, have a cocktail, dine, have a frozen yogurt, and shop at some of wonderful stores there.

One of my best shopping experiences ever. Such a beautiful outdoor area with great stores and restaurants!

I am not normally a fan of shopping centers, but this was a beautiful place to visit. We didn't do much shopping, but it's a great place to walk around outside.

This is a nice place to walk around , there is heaps of shops, restaurants to eat at . Great to sit and enjoy the fountains.

Excellent planning that resulted in a well thought out multiple purpose community center: fine retail outlets, inviting outdoor gathering areas, wonderful fountain, trolley, wide variety of dining options, excellent seasonal decor, safe and clean parking garages.

I love coming here with my boyfriend, friends, and family. The ambiance is great. Lots of great restaurants and shops. I especially love it during Christmas time, it's decorated amazingly!!

It has a few good shops but it’s over crowded and busy it’s just not worth it. Go to Glendale better stores and next to a great mall.

Came with the family to enjoy the outdoors, relax, eat, and browse/shop a little. All in one beautiful place at the Americana. There are a lot of people, even during mid-afternoon, but enough space for the kids to run freely.
A nice inner city spot.

A lot like the Grove, perhaps same designer. High end stores Tiffany etc. Novelty for us was the Sugarfina candy store.

Excellent place for shopping or outing with the family. Very attractive fountains and scenery. Highly recommend it.

Although it is very similar to The Grove, it is still very nice, pleasant to walk around, a nice variety of stores: Nordstrom, Urban Outfitters, H&M, Forever 21, Cheesecake Factory and Sprinkles! Parking was relatively easy and free both ties we were there.

Adorable place to have a dinner or coffee. There is always a lot of people, children walking around. Some good shopping spots...the Glendale Gallery is close

A mall to see if you are in the area, waterfountain is nice . Christmas decor is amazing . Good food and restaurant . a nice place to take tourist visiting LA. You can also ride the trolley that goes around the area . Nice music with the dancing fountain. Nice place to shop or just window shop .

Lots of great stores and restaurants! They have stores like Kate Spade, Nordstrom, Lulu, Apple store, and more! We ended up eating at a restaurant at the bar b/c it was crowded, but we didn't care. We enjoyed our time shopping!

This place is the best place to eat, shop and stroll. It has high end shopping like Nordstrom, Tiffany, Yurman, Apple, Barneys of New York and many more. It also have cinemas and all good Restaurants like Cheesecake Factory, Ameci Italian Restaurant, Bourbon Steak, Din Tai Fong and many others. You can sit by the dancing fountain like those of the Bellagio in Las Vegas. I actually work in a Real Estate office in the fourth place but I spend many hours just strolling around or shopping. It is the best place to hang out in Glendale.

Great place to hang out for some shopping and eating. The place looks a bit like a small disneyland in the middle of the city with a train that also carries people around. Love the fountain with the Frank Sinatra music. The restaurant selection is huge and i haven't found any bad place so far. Great for weekend shopping trips!

Really amazing place the shopping and food so much to see and do in this great place well worth checking out you don't want to miss this just to sit and chilling and watch the awesome water fountain.

Lots of upscale shops and eateries. Overpriced and a hassle to park. Nice holiday decorations but park a ways away and walk or you will pay parking and it is set up to make parking not a pleasant experience.

Perfect place for spending time with my family!!!
You can shop and dine or have coffee!!!!
There's a movie theatre too.

Ever since the opening Americana a few years back it has been our family’s go to place. We love the restaurants and the shopping but most of all, the ambiance! Beautiful little streets with everything so well thought out and appointed. And the fountains... yay! Every hour on the hour a lovely water show with great music. Hard to keep from dancing. It is our happy place.

If you’re looking for a place to dine and shop the Americana is the spot for you. Several great retail shops and great places to dine. Not to mention they have an 18 stadium theater. If your looking for more shops the Glendale Galleria is right across the street. Why not indulge in a weekend filled with food drinks and shopping!
