7034 Carroll Ave, Takoma Park“Pricey selection but very good variety. If you know what you're looking for, the manager will direct you. There was lady tailoring folks in the back. She was very helpful and can order from overseas if you need certain items. I appreciate their attention to detail and eye for style. If you've got the funds, check them out!”

1157 University Blvd E, Takoma Park“Nina Jewelers is the top local jeweler and has a fantastic selection of gold and other jewelry. Over the years I have bought numerous gold pieces, including chains, rings and bracelets. My wife also comes here regularly for her own pieces, and loved coming here for her wedding jewelry. The jewelry is of the highest quality and the customer service is fantastic!”
“Took a field trip, braved the cold to Takoma Park. I grew up steps from Berkeley, CA and Takoma Park transports me back to a Berkeley neighborhood each time I go. This shop was great and full of hidden surprises! Not all the clothing was in pristine condition and definitely lots to see. I settled on a pair of red corduroy pants (vintage Ralph Lauren). Yes, most likely will return. There is also a delicious Mexican restaurant super close Cielo Roja.”
“Update 6/2023: so happy with the new management at Amano! They’re friendly, helpful and the inventory is much improved. I now go there more frequently to see what new things they have.Previous review: I'm so glad to hear others say they've had great customer service b/c it's been hit or miss with me. Sometimes i'll get a very nice sales woman and other times, like today, my daughter and i walked in, looked around the jewelry by the front register and left 5 mins later and not one person acknowledged us. We've also gone bought something there and literally, nothing was said to us. Not hello/can i help you/thank you for shopping with us. As i said, there have been times when they've been friendly but it's kind of odd that it's not consistent.”
