Dadeland is a great walking mall for me. I go every week yet i still fail to come out with anything more than starbucks, even though they have a great variety of stores. There is only one time i hate going to dadeland and that is from the day after thanksgiving till the after christmas sales. During that time you can find me at the falls or home, because i wouldnt touch dadeland with a 200 ft pole, unless i feel like being walked on top of by the mobs of people. Other than that, i think it has a really nice selection of stores to get exactly what you were looking for. Casual, dressy, club styles, shoes, purses, watches, swimwear, gaming, electronics, jewelry... you name it dadeland probably has it, and if not they will probably be putting it in soon (come on Floral ecstasy and mobile teeth whiteners?).

Maybe thats why its so popular during the holidays, Who can resist one stop shopping?

spent yesterday holiday shopping at dadeland...  ughhh.  it's better than dolphin, that's for sure.  but i much prefer aventura mall or even the falls.

i recognize this mall has a ton of history from being a leader in design (which you wouldn't know it now) to mobster shootings, but i kind of hate it.  it's soooooo overcrowded.  especially around the holidays, it's nearly impossible to find parking.  and though the aisles are pretty wide, i am constantly getting hit by strollers and people.  

and i think it should be a rule that NO ONE is allowed to hold hands inside the mall.  especially chains of people that take up the whole freakin aisle.  and also, the acoustics kinda blow.

on that note, it is waaay better than dolphin and there are a bunch of stores i like.  and they've done a bunch of renovations to it.  so in my book all these things balance out to it being average.

the sales at this mall are fabulous, especially at the banana republic & at the giant express they have here. it is strange to have to walk through the macy's to get to the other half of the mall but once you understand that maneuvering around isn't too bad.

Shopping here is a complete and utter nightmare sometimes.  It is very crowded and not alot of  space to accomodate such a crowd.  The design of the mall is rather boring, even after the rennovations that took place.  The great part is that you will get alot done here at this mall.  Every store one after the other will almost always be a clothing store so you likely won't be distracted.  The lines at checkout can be long and daunting, but stick it out.  I have some sentimentality for this place but I must admit it's a poorly designed mall and they don't exactly keep it clean.  They have a very good foodcourt with a delicious Cozzoli's pizza.  They also have a Cheesecake factory adjacent to what used to be Ruby Tuesday's.  This Cheesecake factory can get busy.  Don't have the cheeseburgers at Cheesecake, I highly recommend the chicken baja tacos and pretty much any cheesecake, but for god's sake no burgers!
