“Possible here to get your fav name brand boutique clothing on sale and first! They are easy to shop and have models in pics with clothes and many views of each clothing item. Definitely the way to shop expensive clothing, no fuss, no muss, and can be cheaper.”
“Staff were super friendly and helpful! Everything was super cute, quality, and locally-made. My mug was carefully wrapped and put in a gift bag with a ribbon color of my choice, all for free! (Except the mug, of course.) If you're looking for high-quality local New Haven gifts or souveniers with great customer service, this is the place to go. :)”
“We come to Connecticut frequently to enjoy friends and the wine vineyards. We live in Massachusetts, so we're a good couple of hours away from this unique boutique store, that we just stumbled on in our travels. It's a hidden gem. My wife is always hard on herself and hesitant to try on things that she doesn't think will work for her. In this boutique, the owner and her staff not only helps overcome this self doubt, but has an intimate, friendly and classy environment to support it. With her subtle encouragement my wife tried on a Joseph Ribbkof dress in a size 4 (my wife normally wears a size 6-8)...she looked amazing and confident. She walked out of that store with a new birthday dress and a smile on her face. This store easily could have been located in Boston or NYC and fit right in. The owner has a very fine eye for fashion. We'll be back...it was worth the drive! Thanks again for making my wife feel comfortable and beautiful”
“The best stylist in town! Customer service and her statement pieces sets apart style, elegance and class. It’s not only a destination spot, it’s a gem of a place that makes you walk out like a gem!!!”
“One of my fav stores ever. I love coming in here. I love the fact it has an upstairs. I also like the wide variety of products being sold. I enjoy coming in here. I love the customer service and enjoy the atmosphere.”
“The only thing missing were 4 way stretch scrubs for over large size. There is none left. I felt very bad for the person who asked the cashier for helping to find if any saved else where but none found. I took whatever remaining there were with pants.”
“My son has been begging me to go in to this store, so I finally did and I was blown away it's a little hidden gem the quality of the clothes is amazing... girls the clutches are DRIP the customer service was great as well and needless to say my son was super happy. I have to add this in the shirts I purchased have been through a few washes and it is just as good as the day purchased. I will be visiting them many many more times..”
“I was admittedly a little worried about ordering after reading some of these reviews, but to say I was pleasantly surprised would be an understatement! EXCELLENT customer service--The moment I walked in the door, I was greeted by a lovely man who introduced himself as Helder. He was very helpful when needed but also gave me the space to explore on my own. Since then, I've placed multiple orders through the Yale portal and have had almost all orders arrive in just over a week (one took two weeks, but someone called to let me know). I'm not sure if something changed over the last year, but whatever it was I'm glad it did!”
“One of the best sneakers shop in the entire states. Seriously. I cannot stress this enough, every item has a unique-artsy feeling to it and the prices are more than fair.”
“Absolutely fantastic service, helped purchase and tailor a suit that I needed the NEXT day. Paul, an employee was willing to come early on a weekend to accommodate my last minute schedule. I will definitely recommend these guys to anyone in New Haven.”
“I love all the items I buy at camo! The store has such a nice and quality selection of clothes I am always able to find something ! I get many compliments on the clothes I buy from camo! Make sure you shop small here”
“NEW BUSINESS ALERT I found this place by chance. I was in route to another business in the same strip and noticed a once empty storefront was now filled with eye-catching clothes. So of course I had to stop by and check it out. The owner, Victoria, was so inviting and engaging. It's a newly opened shop with many cute clothing options. You can shop on the website or in-store, or follow along on the IG or Facebook page. I bought a lounge set and got to select a free gift. I'll definitely be back at some point when I have more time to shop and can take the time to try a few things on. UPDATE: I see the address somehow got changed to Connecticut from what I entered, but this review is about the Georgia location”
“This is a great place for those who like to wear new dresses. Available dresses are of very good quality. If you have money, you may get those clothes. I really liked their stock. I would like to visit the place again, provided that I get a chance again.”

“This store is well stocked and well maintained. After a long time away from mass produced clothing at full price, I realized a lot of it was no longer my style. However, I scored a nice button up long sleeves shirt to wear over dresses and tops that I quite liked - also because I got it at about 67% off. I would come back here again but not all the time. I scored a lot more like new finds at the Goodwill close by.”

“I had a problem with my suit order, which was delayed because of UPS. Lucy was extremely helpful and solved the problem super quickly, offered a good alternative and was very transparent from the beginning to the end. Besides, she was of great service to try different suits, etc. Thanks!!”
“It’s awesome to see this Bobs return after it closed back in 2020, I shopped here as a kid and have fond memories of coming home with new sneakers and clothes growing up … now I can shop here with my kid and give them the same memories.”
“Nice place has a huge selection of goodies for everyone. Found some outstanding prices on clothing for me and my wife. Can't believe the great prices on some of the items.”
“I’ve been contacted by a representative from Heritage by America when i tried to purchase this pants and told me that “unfortunately that item is no longer available and will no longer be in production”.”

“This is by far the best Eblens I have shopped at, the manager was so helpful. The store was extremely clean and organized. When we walked in we were greeted and asked if we needed help. The previous one I had came from I had to search for someone to help us then I found someone and was told to go to another person. This location is great and I would definitely recommend shopping here.”
“I love this Plato’s closet! I'm a frequent thrift store shopper and spend a lot of my time in several Platos closets a week. Rick, Sage and Leia are always very kind to me and helpful!
After reading some of the negative reviews all I have to say is, when you go to sell your items, this place is a business. Even if you think your items are in style and trendy doesn’t necessarily mean that it will be profitable for this business. Is it disappointing when you curate bins full of items to then have it turned down? Yes. But there's no reason to then leave negative reviews just because Plato’s closet is just doing what they need to do as a business.
I probably come once or twice a week to this location and to no fail I am always warmly greeted, treated respectfully and have a wonderful experience.”
“As a former employee in 2013-2017, I've watched current employees literally be on their phones while ringing up customers which can lead to an error in the register. This visit today was successful and quick and the cashier was helpful and not rude like others I've encountered. My neighbor store #1191”
“Employee named Laura was super helpful and discreet, which was important to me regarding my purchase. I prefer this store over the old Saybrook location because it's more organized and easier to navigate.”
