The Americana at Brand - Shop CA (Near Glendale)

4 /5 Ani Rafyan: I’m not a huge fan of this location overall. But my son absolutely loves their fountains, so every time we’re driving to Glendale, I know I’ll be forced to stop here—he gets so excited watching the water dance and play to the music. I do like their selection of brands—it’s solid with plenty of upscale and popular ones. Otherwise, though, you can find the same things at other malls or shopping spots that are closer to you, without the extra drive. Still, for families with kids who go wild for those choreographed fountain shows (every hour on the hour, like a mini Bellagio vibe), it’s worth the detour. The kiddo is happy, and that’s what counts!

5 /5 Jeremy L: 11/11/2025 - The PARADISE DYNASTY, which is a Singaporean cuisine restaurant, had a soft opening on Oct. 23, 2025 and will have a Grand Opening on Nov. 21, 2025. The place is very clean. The signature Rainbow Dynasty Xiao Long Bao is indeed the best with eight flavors. Recommend to follow the instruction to start with an original flavor Xiao Long Bao first, which has a lot of soup inside. You can walk from this restaurant indoor connected to the Le Shrimp Noodle Bar next door under the same roof since the same owner opened the two restaurants simultaneously Oct. 23, 2025. The service is also excellent with an excellent vibe! You can park just across the restaurant with a meter parking lot at $3 per hour or park at the mall for free, but require a 10-minute walk.

5 /5 Ben Saravia: If you’re looking for a safe, clean, and family-friendly place to shop, eat, and relax in the Los Angeles area, The Americana at Brand in Glendale is an absolute standout. From the moment we arrived, everything felt spacious, well-managed and vibrant. The outdoor shopping centre has a resort-like feel, complete with a gorgeous dancing fountain, live music, and even a free, vintage-style trolley tram that loops through the property — great for kids and a fun way to take in the whole atmosphere. We stopped at The Cheesecake Factory for lunch — the perfect spot right on the promenade with outdoor seating and an unbeatable view of the fountain. The food was classic, portions generous, and service was excellent as always. The retail mix is upscale but approachable, with stores like Nordstrom, Apple, and local boutiques. We loved how walkable everything was, with wide paths and plenty of seating to just sit and enjoy the scenery. Top tip: Get your parking validated while you’re shopping or dining — and it’s free. Easy parking in LA is a rare luxury, and this just makes the visit even more convenient.

5 /5 Aaron E.J Obrien: This is a beautiful shopping mall in LA. Additionally, you can park here for free. There is no reason to skip this place when traveling in LA.
