IKEA West, Costa Mesa Reviews

You can buy things here, but you shouldn't return anything here. The wait at the return services will wear you down badly.

Always pleasant place to shop & spend time. We love the food & house items.

Felt like I was trapped in the maze they have built. Whether you want it or not, you have to go through the whole store to get out. Not a good experience

This place has tons of furniture and helpful employees with reasonable prices for all of their products.

It's a place where you find everything and good price I like

Food was good; good size portions. The wait was a bit long because there was only one server to service everybody until I got up to the food, another finally came to help. The glassware was cloudy with food debris. Thank goodness I had my water with me.

Nice place for buying some furniture in inexpensive price.

I love it for the price and there I find everything I need for my home.

Like the store, good prices, but navigation can be a challenge.

A fun place to imagine new looks and updates to rooms in your home or apartment, especially since we need to make the most of the space we have available. The family enjoys visit restaurant for a fun casual family meal that doesn't break the bank.

Quick in and out when you know what your looking for.

Awesome place to go shopping for your household needs n furniture. Having moved recently to SoCA, we were looking to buy furniture for our home and IKEA was the best place with extremely competitive prices. We bought a queen size bed, twin bunk beds, mattresses and many other items. We were especially pleased by the options for storage in beds. They also have a good restaurant with mostly European food (including veggie options) and prices are very reasonable!

Great staff, lots of home inspiration and I love those meatballs!

Found a couple small shelves, and grabbed a bite to eat. It s always a good experience.

How do we get out of here??? No clocks. No windows. No direct path to an exit. Make sure to bring bread crumbs to make like Hansel & Gretal or use as survival food.

I LOVE this IKEA. I am sooo glad I live close by. I usually just go even if I don t really need to buy anything.

Finally got around to doing custom lighting for my stream space. Great lights installation simple

Glad to have an IKEA close to home. Please open one in NW Bakersfield! Find the frozen pancakes in the frozen food section -- they're quick to make & taste good. I needed a part that was missing in one of my furniture purchases; I was shocked to see that it was shipped from Sweden instead of some fulfillment center in the mid-US.

Very cool to see their current stock on the floor but as the saying goes go in to look for one thing and get lost for a few hrs. Definitely do not go in if you have anything else planned afterwards on the same day or night. Lol

Big store, large selection in stock, and always friendly people!

Can't go wrong with Ikea when you're searching for furniture! Staff are knowledgeable and willing to help you out. Everything is organized and the showrooms are very well decorated. The food court has tasty food but can be on the more industrially processed side.

Affordable and hackable furnitures aside, this place also has a good (and cheap) eatery inside. Very friendly to little kids. My toddler loves to come here just to play.

Lots a cool stuff, friendly staff and good prices. If coming up on the 405 north, get off at Susan street, leads right to the store.

Dont like to waste my time to instal and assemble stuff

Good overall; you can find some of the cheapest furnitures around, however, not all are good deal so shop around first as you think everything is cheap just because some of them are. Need more elevators. I don't like walking around winding walk ways so this place is not a fast place to shop. Food is great but hotdogs are better at Costco and cheaper.

I bought a sofa and one piece came out defective and I was waiting an hour with 30 minutes to change it, and the customer service had a bad attitude, very bad service

Busy and a little crowded on the weekend, but great selection. Didn't expect to find what I was looking for, but they had it. Fantastic meatballs, too.

Very large store with unique type products for your home. Will take you a few hours to walk the multi levels. Great prices, well presented, clean and very well maintained.

Just a classic Ikea. Always crowded but fair prices and acceptable quality.

Excellent prices in everyday used items. Furniture is not super high quality but is okay to start from scratch when you are limited with your budget

A favorite for the whole family. Sunday breakfast is simple and very cost effective.

Very busy, bathroom was a lil crowded and dirty. Very good product selection.

Spent a couple hours looking at all their cool home goods and ate dinner there. The lingonberry pie thing is delish

I walked into an Ikea and I got lost. It was ok though because there are all these little places to live. Like tiny apartment full of reasonably comfortable furniture. There are so many I move once a week. I hope to find my way out of this Ikea one day, but until then there is a foldout couch with my name on it.

So less crowded on a Friday night than a Sunday afternoon!

QUARANTINE: Wait times just to get into the store can be 1hr+ Check online to make sure the items you are looking for are in stock before showing up.

Neat and organized, not too crowded during the weekdays, but can get a bit crazy on weekends. Great affordable food (their meatballs are worth a separate visit). Their convenience store offers a lot of organic, fare-trade, humane items. Early Christmas decorations. A recycling station where you can dispose of batteries and similar items.

Horrible experience no workers anywhere and never have anything in stock when on sale

i was on hold for 20 min...... oh and they still never ansewred i just hung up. thanks alot IKEA

Always love shopping here. It's a great way to spend a day and see what's new.

i can always find parking because the lot is huge. There are times when inside can be pretty hectic with the rush of people, especially the food dining area. The cashiers are prompt so the wait in line is usually minimum. there are plenty of workers floating around.

I love IKEA they have the color markers and color pencil I bought markers from IKEA went I was six and they still work

A lot of varieties and very clean and have a playing area for kids

Why advertise click and collect when there is no way to actually place an order for it online? Have tried all times of day to place an order but always get an error saying they ve reached their order capacity for the day and to try again tomorrow. Seems like the only big retail store that hasn t figured out curbside pickup...

Restaurant was recently remodeled. While the prices may be a bit higher though, take advantage of the ikea family discounts which are offered.

A fun place to go to even if you aren't looking to buy anything.

Ikea is a great place to go for many purposes. They stock up on not only furniture but many intricate things for around the house usage. Their displays are great and you can get a good sense of what you may want your room to look like. The food is okay but priced well.

I only knock them for the quality of their items. Most things bought here don't tend to last. Their shelves made from plywood, their sofas with foam that is too soft. Usually I would look over this if the price is right but I've come to find that with their growing popularity, their prices have gone up as well. This price increase, I do not feel matches their quality.

Still, I find myself frequenting Ikea often, as they have such a wide selection of things that you can try and their show rooms really help visualize what it may look like in your own room.

Nice place, lots of choices, ample parking, service oriented sales personnel, interesting dining options. One thing I noticed, no shopping bags, but that's understood, California laws, but another major department store, well known, gives bags. Ikea is one of a kind and very good.

4 starts be cause their restaurant cups, plates & utensils smell like ass but the food was good & the rest on the store is great I over spent like always. Thank you.

Nice experience. Easy to make choices based on displays. Good food too!

Never have I've experienced such bad and unethical behavior from it's management staff.
What's even worse, the Store Manager will never accept a call from the outside to discuss the situation on what occurred. Very unprofessional and sad, representing a worldwide brand. Wayfair now is my go to.

Love the organizational ideas and set ups all through the sales floor, plus the ice cream is delicious too

The specific rug I wanted (saw online) wasn t available in store. But can t beat their prices!
