Review from Melanie K.

Upscale to St. Matthews.
Looking for a Boutique and not a store? Then this is the mall for you. Oxmoor has a more higher end selection of stores, so expect a higher price tag then the casual mall down the block.
I am pretty sure if you are looking for a sale and discount you should attend St. Matthews (which I have also reviewed). If you are looking for a "good buy" and "value" then Oxmoor is probably your better choice.
No pinkie out needed, but a sweater around the neck could help. -

Okay, so on the one hand, Oxmoor has an Apple store, Yang Kee Noodle, a Sephora, and other higher end stores that St. Matthews doesn't.
On the other hand, baby, you're looking run down. You need a makeover, stat. I mean, a girl can only live off the the status that a CPK can brings her for so long.
You need to go looking for something a little more up to date than Bebe. I know times have been tough since The Sharper Image went bankrupt, but I know you can do it! -
Review from Emily J.
I liked this shopping center, especially because it has Von Maur in it. I know that people snob this store off, but I love it. I also like the fact that there is a California Pizza Kitchen in this mall, a great place to stop for a quick lunch while shopping. Good location too, and near enough to St. Matthew's mall that you can "mall hop" if necessary.

Great mall with a good selection of stores. The food court has plenty of options too!

Review from Troy W.
This is a good size mall, but the selection of stores is just not my fav compared to other malls. The neighboring Mall St Matthews might be my favorite mall. Since the two malls are next to each other, I usually visit both.
I do enjoy the large open corridors at this mall with rich colors, earthy tiles, abundant sitting areas, and two-level center court (though the second floor occupies only a tiny portion of the mall, it's the only mall in town with a second floor).
I have mixed feelings about the food court, which occupies half of the second floor. I enjoy pulling up a chair to a table along a rail overlooking the first floor. However, I've never been a big fan of the small selection of well-known to barely-known fast food options.
Some have suggested that this mall caters to the middle-age crowd while the mall next door grabs the younger crowd by the ear and says "hey... look at me." While I see people of all ages at both malls, I would agree with this assumption. -
Review from Johnny T.
You know, Facebook is a remarkable thing. It lets you peek into the lives of people you have long ago stopped thinking about. It fulfills every voyeuristic yearning this generation has. You can see what someone looks like ("Man, he got FAT!"), where someone lives ("She's there? Hmm, wonder what the story behind that is.") and what someone does for a living ("Wait. Didn't he go to law school? What??!"). It's a nice refresher but sometimes it's best to leave the past in the past. This was the lesson I learned at Oxmoor Center.
When I was younger, Oxmoor was THE place to hang out on a Friday night. "Where are you going?" "The mall." "What are you going to do?" "Hang out." And, so it went until one was old enough to drive, go to parties and do all the things 15 year-olds should never do. I logged many miles roaming the corridors, eating Great American cookies and hang-up calling girls I was too shy to approach in school. I'm having a moment here -- don't judge me! Oxmoor was bright, shiny, new, a ton of fun.
Fast forward to the present. Oxmoor has seen better days. The crowds are sparser, the stores are older and the mood is blah-er. I didn't feel any of the frenetic energy that I remember from days gone by (or, that I experienced at The Mall St. Matthews). I mean, a mall is a mall is a mall, but things just seemed...different. The anchor stores (Macys, Sears and...something else. I can't remember...Von Maur, maybe.) had ho-hum decorations out for the holidays. This is the big game, in mall world. If this is how you go all out, stay at home. I was whelmed. Points to Oxmoor, though, for having an Apple Store. I never thought I would feel the warm glow of Steve Jobs' love in Louisville, but there it was.
My return to Oxmoor was quick and efficient. I didn't have to battle large crowds and long lines. I was able to get in and out without much fuss. The corridors were easy to navigate and the concourses were free & clear. Generally, these should be good things but, at Christmastime, one expects big crowds and pushy people. When your mall can't garner that kind of attention, something is wrong. I can appreciate trying to stay above the fray. I can appreciate the less-is-more and quality-over-quantity mindsets. I do. I get it. But, rather than planned snobbery, the effect was post-expiration. I know you can do it, Oxmoor. Become awesome once again.Listed in: First to Review

Review from David I.
It's a mall. I hate malls. Crowded, rugrats, bad service, and crappy products.
