Entertainment & Activities
This is an open air mall much like the Grove and owned by the same person. They have lots of food options, every type of shopping and a large movie theater. It is very touristy and packed. But it is interesting to experience. They also have a Din Tai Fung which is the best dumpling house in the United States. The original one is in Arcadia but this is closer. The wait is insane so if you are interested you want to check the hours and get there early or have no other plans.
