Review from Monicalyn P.
Long Island, NY
It's a Saturday afternoon in the Summer. The sun is shining, birds are chirping and I've got 5 hours to kill before meeting the gang at Nautical Mile for drinks. What's a south shore girl to do?
Put every piece of designer clothing & accessory you own (it doesn't matter if you match) and hit Miracle Mile! Remember since we drive beaters always park far out in the lot by the other beaters, aka "the employee lot".
Seriously though, the Americana is a gorgeous strip mall filled with some very high end shops. I do stop at Crate and Barrel often (ugh I have such a soft spot for home goods...). The mall is VERY well maintained and has art placed sporadically throughout the walk. During the spring the landscaping and flowers are out of this world. -
Review from Asim F.
When shopping is what you crave of high-end products or brand names, Americana Manhasset is your one-stop wonderland without the rush and hassles of a typical shopping mall.
Brands are numerous, Lacoste, Prada, Juicy Couture, Ralph Lauren, Brooks Brothers, Hirshleifers, Burberry, the Apple Store, etc to name just a few.
Staff at the Apple Store, Hirshleifers, and Juicy Couture are the friendliest and most helpful, thus making the shopping experience pleasant.
With plenty of parking, its a good option for those who don't like going to the malls... -
Review from Michael L.
Douglaston, NY
Being that all the malls in the local area have gone to the way side, example Roosevelt Field Mall, Americana Manhasset is a nice relaxing place to shop in the Nassau area. The only down fall is you have to have big time cash to even consider shopping in some of the stores.
The Apple Store is a dream compared to other locations. -
Review from Janice D.
I like the Americana. When I actually plan on buying something, if the Americana has the store, I would prefer going here. It is less crowded than any other shopping center, and I find the staff to be friendly, even though others state otherwise. Its an outdoor shopping center so if the weather is nice it can be a pleasant experience, shopping or not.
my boyfriend likes coming here with me because he likes checking out the cars in the parking lot and thinking he is cool because he knows the model, make, and price tag.
***HM is not here anymore, which sucks because it was the least crowded HM I have ever been too and I love the kids clothes.1 Previous Review: Show all »

Review from Diana H.
As far as upscale shopping goes, it's perfect.
I love this outdoor mall, full of high end retail stores with excellent service. Even if you just want to window shop they keep the landscaping very nice and they have 2 restaurants and a snack bar if you want a good lunch or to or just a quick bite.
Another reason it's a great mall is because in the mix of chanel and gucci you can also find a banana republic, gap, sephora, bebe, lululemon and other more affordable choices.
So if you don't have a huge budget you can still find something pretty for yourself. -
Review from Sonny G.
I like coming to Americana because they have top notch high end designer retail. This shopping center is located in a beautiful area, and across the street is another little shopping area (Bed Bath &Beyond, Benihana's, and Whole Foods). Nice mall if you have money, and if you don't have much of it, prepare for a huge mouth drop!!

Top notch shopping center. It does have a nice Apple Store amongst other high end shops. It is not as crowded. They have hired folks to direct traffic during peak times.

Review from Marlo G.
Those who enter the Americana Manhasset zone will come in contact with a noxious attitude. If you've heard about Long Island snobs, here's where they come to shop---it's Rodeo Drive or Madison Avenue in a strip mall, albeit a beautiful one. Louis Vuitton, Van Cleef & Arpels, Fendi, D&G, Ferragamo---all luxury brands are here. Make sure to drive your Italian or German car when you come to visit...I think your car must be of a certain worth to even cross the parking lot threshold. Please get over yourselves.
Have a peek at my David Yurman experience: http://www.yelp.com/bi...
There is what seems to be a separate wing of the shopping plaza that houses your mall standards like Sephora, H&M, and Victoria's Secret.
While the mall itself is accessible, its shops will vary.Listed in: Shopping in Long Island, One Star Horrors

Review from Franco C.
A tiny Slice of Manhattan.
Think of your favorite upscale stores along 5th, copy and paste them into a stretch along Northern Boulevard and you have the Americana shopping center.
Located along the "miracle mile" (what the miracle is/was I have no idea), it is easy to get to and way less crowded (sometimes) than that mecca of shopping - 5th ave.
Be warned: the parking lot is usually jammed with knuckleheads driving too fast for their own good. -
Review from Theresa H.
San Francisco, CA
As other Yelper's have mentioned... this is a strip mall. But a strip mall on money steroids. There are no large anchor tenants, yet, Americana's numerous store fronts house some of the best brands in the world.
When I come into town to visit family, I always look forward to my time with them AND taking the time to cruise through the stores along this little shopping oasis. It's just lovely!

Review from Tina C.
An upscale strip of designer brand name stores in Long Island. It's like Fifth Avenue in the surburbs. It's extremely clean and will definitely break your budget. I'm sure Billy Joel, the Baldwins, and other famous elite Long Islanders shop here. Indeed upscale stores/restaurants employees are snooty and rude treating customers lack of respect looking at you if you can afford to pay for a Burberry $500.00 hand bag. Shoppers come here to browse and to add "I've been to Manhasset, NY" on their TripAdvisor travel map rather than actually making purchases.
N.B. You get what you pay for.. the more you spend the better quality you'll get though as no doubt about that. -
Review from Billy L.
New Rule: If Billy Joel sings about a shopping center, it automatically receives 5 stars. The idea that a high end shopping mall is included in a song is pretty cool in my opinion, particularly because it is now part of the cultural lore of the area.
The Americana indeed boasts some high end shops, but in recent years, stores like Abecrombie & Fitch, H & M, and Crate & Barrel have moved in and it's "elitist" reputation as a shopping center (I never knew inanimate objects like clothes had a reputation haha) has given way to a more we have something for everyone type of feel.
There are also two really good restaurants in the shopping center: Toku, a high end sushi restaurant which is possibly the best in Nassau County, and Cipppolini, a great place to go during the summer as they have outdoor seating and you can look at all of the fashionistas and tourists attempting to look way too chic when locals like myself roll up in flip flops and funny t-shirts.
Great customer service, products, and environment, especially in the summer, make The Americana one of the best kept shopping secrets on Long Island. The prices may be high, but if you want the best, or at least what products our society holds in high esteem, you are going to have to pay.Listed in: Hometown Heroes, Go for Broke

Review from Andy H.
Brooklyn, NY
This is a nice high end strip mall in Manhassat,NY. Loses one star, for its snooty store managers and equally snooty customers. Also loses one star because unless you live nearby, you probably won't venture here, its in Manhassat, Long Island!
Among the stores: Tiffany and Co., Victoria's Secret, Burberry, Gucci, Hermes and about 25 more high end snooty yet extremely nice shops.
They do have a Gap, Banana Republic, Athletes Foot and a few other down to earth priced shops for people that do not have 1k to blow on a Saturday afternoon.Listed in: Born to Shop

Review from YELP S.
LONG ISLAND CITY, NY
I really don't understand why the workers at the stores are so snobby and rude. They swear they're in Beverly Hills making big dollars, working retail. If you don't dress to impress, the sales people will give you dirty looks and be very rude. Especially at Burberry, Polo and Gucci. Next time, I'll be sure to get their names! Makes me hate the brand as they represent them. They really need to train their employees and train them all over again on customer service 1 on 1. The stores are nice, but really, makes me not want to go there, but shop at Park Ave instead with much better service all around.

Review from Anne W.
Douglaston, NY
I would say this is Manhasset's version of 5th Ave but with a nicer ambience. Flowers, walkways, seating areas.
I've watched it change over the past 9-10 years since going as a little girl. A few stores have disappeared while new ritzier stores have moved in.
I remember visiting as a child with my grandparents while they picked out trinkets at Burberry and LV and picking out kitchenware with my mom at Williams Sonoma or Crate & Barrel. Hassling my mom to hurry up while shopping at Hallmarks, Gap and BR.
I often stop by across the street at Whole Food's to pick up groceries afterwards.
During spring time, the flowers are always blooming and the winter decorations are always fabulous. Even if you're not there to shop, It feels like a winter wonderland during the colder seasons. -
Review from andres y.
Elmhurst, NY
This is one of the malls that take much of your budget+look than just walking into a regular one hoping to find sthg under half of your pocket. i mean, you may find "some" few great deals such at h&m or gap and rarely abercrombie tho!. otherwise, not even step inside the rest of the stores if you not willing to spend over $500 or so...such as gucci, louis vitton, juciy curture and daffy's for last. i think this luxury mall is exclusively built up for white people. (sorry if i've been too directed).
the place is really cool, i give it 4 stars because i love being around the brand name designer labels. apparently it is like a mini-opened camp sorrunded by shopping houses. you will find either a parking space of your choice or do a rather a walk.
even though most of the stores are somewhat highly overpriced, still is woth the visit if you ever wanted to lean the high-class people. by the way, i would never drive in with my honda 96 to that place again! -
Review from Rich K.

Review from Annie Y.
New York, NY
This place has got a bit of everything.
You've got your high-end stores all linked together to make shopping extremely easy.
For those looking for the not so high-end, there are plenty of popular stores for you to shop around.
Ample parking and convenient in all ways. -
Review from Jimmy L.
Bayside, NY
Best high end shopping area outside of 5th Avenue. The biggest draw about this place is the level of customer service. Because of the amount of traffic to this place, the help you get is much better, at least it feels that way. I do get annoyed with Louis Vuitton and Prada. LV because I feel the staff there is a little snotty and Gucci because they are always really packed. But I went to Burberry last night and had the most pleasant service not just from 1 but 2 of their staff there. Added plus for dog owners, they are very dog friendly.

Great for upscale shopping! There are lots of high end boutique inside this mall. Friendly staff. Parking is fairly easy to find.

Review from Vivian H.
Well...this is about as high end as you get. I mean, you want Gucci, you got it. You want Tiffanys, you got it. But if you want BR, or J Crew, or H and M, or Sephora, or Vicky's, you can also get that here. I like shopping here b/c there is not alot of people. And...they do have sales, and they have a good collection thats not picked over. So its nice to shop and be at ease, and find some good deals.

Review from Renee L.
Roslyn, NY
I love the Americana. Really, I love it. The stores are all beautiful, clean and attractive. The parking is plentiful. I love it during the summer, fall and spring because it's fun to walk around outside and shop, especially since I can bring my baby dog. I live nearby, so I never have to miss it..I hope I never move :)

Unless your name ends in Madison or Wilson don't expect to do your christmas shopping here! On the bright side, this place has beautiful lights and store displays this time of the year.
