Kaleidoscope - Mission Viejo, California

The shopping center has upsides and downsides. It has historically always had quite a few vacancies but does have some pretty cool restaurants and places to stop. The movie theater has good deals and has a cheap matinee that I think is seven to $10. Sal‘s pizza is a hidden Jim for sure. I don’t know the history behind it but they have very good thin crispy New York style pizza. This place is hidden upstairs at the top next to the movie theater and is pretty darn good! They also have some focaccia bread type thick pizzas that are also pretty good if you do not like the thin crust style. They have an open market type place that has a few restaurants in the back also. A gym downstairs and a Panini kebab restaurant on the side. That is pretty good if you like Mediterranean type food.
Sometimes they have a Train exhibit in some of the vacant spaces. Photos attached. Pretty cool little collectors that come in and put up large train set up. Fun for the kids. It is well decorated for each holiday season.
Riptide sushi upstairs as a hibachi type place that you can get some good sushi or hibachi grill, which can be fun.
The only downside is the shopping center can smell like sewer gas in some areas. Outside of that I would say it’s a good stop with plenty of parking.

Nice small mall. Lots of parking. The center piece is the Edwards theaters and 24 Hour Fitness. Several restaurants anchor the mall like Buffalo’s Wild Wings, Panini Grill. Then there are several smaller restaurants niche eateries such as Union Station, Hana’s Korean BBQ, sushi, pizza, etc. There is an art gallery, golf video range, but no stores. If you go to the website, you will see all the proprietors. Surprisingly there are a lot of foods and services available. So take in a movie and enjoy a nice dinner or lunch in a relaxed atmosphere with no crowds.

Nice little outdoor mall. The big places to note are the fitness center and the theater but there are also plenty of other activities and hangouts there. The restaurants are also great.

Its important to note that the escalators are often down, or at least they are when I visit, and the elevator is extremely slow. Additionally, parking is very strange for people who have never been. One needs to take Kaleidoscope road to an underground structure that isn't apparent or obvious at first glance.

This is one of the strangest experiences I have ever had. This place is seriously dead. Here on a Friday night and there are a total of 5 ppl here. The drinks at the Mexican place sucked. Food and drinks are all over priced. All the escalators are broken. Seriously a waste of time.

Very nice shopping mall. It’s not so big but it got all the good stuff. Parking is good too.

Escalators rarely work and elevators are hit and miss. The best thing here is Regal theatres, they have reclining chairs that are super comfortable.

The mall smells like Grey water. The sewage smell is terrible in the parking areas. If they increase the number of businesses but the businesses fail because no one wants to go there....without doing the delayed and necessary updated maintenance the mall will continue to fail. Even the walkways need power blasted to remove the crap.

Shame on Tesla. On the car, on official charging map it show the supercharger as active, you are a road triper, and trust it, take a dive, get there with your last miles on the batter which already degreading fast eery month on a car under one year old, and voila, you realize the whole station is down with its 20 dockes in a horribly bad guided and badly mapped garage of a urban mall bulding. And yes... a distress of heart attack gets in your veins becuse with this hyped car and company, once there is no battery left the car is more worthless than a rot deadhorse. Last night it happened to me, to break my distrust of Tesla and charging station service level, and took this hard landing on a batter under 8 miles left once i got there at 1,30 am and found out the qhole center is dead. Horrible. So Mr. His excellency Barron Musk, instead od firing the whole department, take a merit on building a better network, service and realistic charging prices. Ot watch people and market getting know the hype or Tesla lies and watch your market decaying and dying next few years, as i believe already happening. Please take a due deligence because your mediorcre production and service SLA is so exclusive. We as owners cant substitute the needs. I hope a manager sensibly reads customer griecience and takes an action immediately.
