great atmosphere and place for drinks. the desserts are also very delicious. I did not enjoy my crab cake, the white sauce was bland and the crab cakes were cold. the seafood pasta was also bland and very oily. the serving size are pretty small so not a place I would want to go to if I’m hungry. the crème Brule was good but again the whole dish was like 5 spoonfuls. The prices are pretty pricey for such little food that don’t deliver bold flavors.

I’m not at this location often, but I have been in here a few times. What I can tell you is that I want just about EVERYTHING. I actually get excited about kitchen tools, gadgets etc. if you are like that too, you need to spend some quality time here. You’ll wonder how you ever functioned without the wonderful offerings here. The staff have been very friendly here. Even a customer was helpful to me once. I suggest you start saving up your money now because this wonderful establishment is indeed pricy. $$$ I’m dreaming of that gourmet chef’s kitchen in my future!!!

Oh, the things I would cook with the stuff I might buy from Williams-Sonoma. Everything seems like pretty solid quality and with that quality, you’re paying a premium. Frying pans, cutting boards, knives, spatulas and all other sorts of kitchen gadgets. I thought the big shelf of glasses was interesting. Who knew that there were dozens of different sizes and shapes of glasses? On the plus side, the staff could tell that I had no interest in buying anything as they completely left me alone to browse.

Williams-Sonoma is pretty much the place to go if you need a tool for the kitchen. That said, get out your wallet and be prepared to spend for it. You’re going to pay a premium to buy whatever you need here, but they will probably have it. This is a smaller WS store than a few of the others I have been to, but they have a very knowledgable and attentive staff to help find whatever you need. The store loses a star, and goes from great to just OK, on how aggressively they push their store credit cards. You hear it pretty much everywhere you go these days, but the particular employee helping me really needs a lesson on the«hard sell.» I actually almost took my business elsewhere due to just how pushy I felt they were.

I love coming in here to browse the cookbooks and wares. They sell some really interesting items in this store for the kitchen both appliances and little gadgets to help cook and prep things easier/better/smarter. They’re usually baking some little goodies for you to sample with some of their mix-ins or ingredients in the front area so it always smells nice and you can grab a little snack while you browse the store. I’ve gotten a few things here over the years like cookbooks, napkins, table linens, utensils and I love their apple cider mix and hot chocolate around the holidays. Always fun to stop in here when walking around the mall.

If your looking for any type of kitchen utensil, or small appliance known to man you have found paradise. Put that together with this store is at my favorite mall and you have a great combination. On today’s visit I was looking for a toaster oven again. Before the holidays I looked at the same one and since at the mall I thought I might find it on sale. Well no such luck, but I always love to browse. But darn no holiday samples out. Well what I did get was greeted as soon as I came in by the lady behind the counter. She said«anything I need to let her know». This is very typical of this location which offers great customer service. One thing you will find at Williams-Sonoma is quality products and that does not always come cheap. But I have found their products worth the extra money and they have held up great over the years. As well this is my all time favorite place to shop for a gift. They will take care of gift wrapping at no extra charge and will do a fantastic job. The store at MacArthur Place today was clean, well organized and presented very nicely. Two staff people were working the store, one behind the counter and one on the floor. That is something that has never been an issue, getting help on the floor. Even during the holidays I found plenty of help with the store very crowed with customers. At times you can find in-store sales, but I have never been lucky enough. Never the less it has never stopped me from shopping them for many years and I will continue to do so. My favorite product line offered is Breville. I have several small appliances from them, but my favorite is a blender. Even if your not a foodie this store has something for everyone.
