BIGMallrat's Editorial Review

Serramonte mall in Daly City has traditionally been regarded as a nice shopping center with a good mix of stores.

Atmosphere

The interior of the Serramonte mall is nice, light, and bright. They recently remodeled the center court to create a Zen comfort zone. Using Feng Shui principles, they balanced natural light, installed a stone koi water pond, bamboo landscapes, and added plush furniture.

Using tasteful and up-to-date colors, each wing has its own colors that are based on a season: summer, autumn, spring, and winter. We found the mall to be calming and pleasant; so unlike many other shopping centers.

Serramonte mall's layout was especially pleasing. We were able to stroll around, enjoy the mall and return to the car before we got tired. The giant plus design really is, a plus!

Stores

With the departure of Montgomery Wards and addition of Target, things have picked up. We didn't see any store vacancies and were pleased with the selected of stores. Mostly middle-of-the-road national retailers with some upscale shops.

Food

A small food court is near Crunch Gym. A good selection of eateries, but a small seating area. However, a skylight above is sometimes open to release food smells while bringing in fresh air.

Parking

Thanks to a large parking lot, parking is never difficult to find. However, don't be surprised if you have to park some distance from an entrance.

The best place to park is the far side of Macy's.
