Ambiance Women's Men & Children's Boutique - Placerville, California

The customer service is awful. The staff is rude. I wanted to get a permanent bracelet but no one would assist me. Guess I didn't look like their typical customer. Their loss. I will never go back and will advise others not to shop there. I live here and can do that. Rudest service on Main St. Spend your money elsewhere. Besides the stuff is way over priced.

Lots of very romantic clothing and shoes (oh my goodness, the shoes!) for ladies. Great jewelry selection including Alex and Ani, Uno de 50, and affordable options as well (can I take all the mini sterling studs home?!). They have my favorite candles that I usually find only at Anthropologie. Lots of jeans and accessories like purses. I could spend quite some time here. Beautiful store.

I am visiting my parents from France with my daughter and went to Ambiance today, while shopping my daughter wanted to use the restroom. The “manager” ask my daughter after looking her up and down if she was a customer. She said yes, she laughed and told her she was not a customer.

My daughter was so embarrassed and mortified. Then told me, and I asked the women, Mira - Mera, if she said that to my daughter; she then actually lied to me and said no she did not say that. So not only did she offend us, then she lied. However, when I brought my 25 yr old daughter she could not lie, so she admitted that she did in fact tell her she was not a customer.

She then had to defend herself. It gets better, the shop worker does not apologize but said, “if you had to clean up feces in the bathroom, you’d ask too.” She said this twice. Wow!

So 3rd insult l. I have never been so offended in a store ever. I just walked out as there was no point. She was more concerned about defending herself than simply apologizing. She did apologize, but only because she was obligated to do so, I guess. And boy was it a short, I’m sorry.

Glad I have never had to write a bad Goggle review, however, this was so offensive I had to post this.

Vote with your wallet.

My parents had already bought 100s of dollars of Xmas gifts there; mine are being donated. I would never step foot in there again if this is the type of employees they hire.
Shameful treatment.

I just love this store! Everytime I come to town from Vegas I stop in there. All the ladies are so nice and helpful. They have a great selection of clothes and I always find something unique there. See ya next time ladies

Love this store. I walked in and all the merchandise was as if I purchased it for the store. The buyer has my number. 😉 Products are of good quality and priced right. Went in two days in a row while I was in Placerville. Purchased a pair of sunglasses, ring, and clothing. Will stop in for sure when I am in the area visiting friends.

The store has very cute bohemian chic clothes. A men's side (didn't explore that much) and the women's side. My only complaint would be that it might not be for the average shopper. I saw a very cute jean jacket, $198. A mindi dress, $225. Peasant blouse $125. All beautiful, but a little steep. The two dollar signs is a little misleading.

I passed through Placerville while on business and stopped in the historic downtown area for lunch. I parked near this store, and the items out on the sidewalk rack and in their window looked cute and of high quality, so I went inside. There's an impressive wide variety of clothing, accessories, and gifts. The customer service was lacking, though. I had an armful of items to try on, and nobody asked if I needed help. I found the dressing rooms on my own, and nobody ever checked on me. I had to get re-dressed, then head back out into the store to find another size. Each employee was completely focused on the representative from one of the apparel lines the store carries and not paying any attention to the customers in the store. I ended up buying a pair of jeans, two tops, two pairs of earrings, and two greeting cards. I'll likely go back the next time I'm in town, and I hope the employees are more engaging and helpful on my next visit!

Ambience is a favorite stop whenever I am anywhere near it. Fun variety and also a place where you cannot lose when looking for a gift.
