Once again I've only sat in the parking lot of this place but I think that it's really cool and it has a bunch of my favorite stores and restaurants. It's also right next to a McDonald's so yeah

Love the store but the staff at the deli counter are awful. They ignore you, are so rude and have 0 personality. Managers need to stop hiring ungrateful teenagers that really don't want to be there because this brings the store way down. I will take more trips to town instead.
