Aventura all the way.

I also like Lincoln Road, though.

Maybe you're right about the people that go there

However, the local Palm Beach Mall here attracts drug dealers and gangsters and the like. But at least we have Fitz R Us
There are occasionally teen fights at the Oaisis up here, and Sawgrass tends to attract a decent amount of petty theives that come in from Dade county (like the people who drove from Dade to break into a car in the Burlington Coat Factory garage to steal and iPod,and got caught last week)as well as a few local theives. Not really anything huge though.

At least people don't settle them in shootings like they do at two of the malls here. At both the Palm Beach Mall (in West Palm Beach) and Boynton Beach mall there were shootings.

Oh, The Falls is Miami's prettiest mall by far. It doesn't get as packed as other malls or at least it doesn't feel as packed as indoor malls do. As far as selection of things, I think it has a little something for everyone, vs. other malls like Merrick.

Aventura all the way!

Plus I don't like to have to carry my passport around just to go south of Opa Locka Blvd.

Miami Merchandise Mart in the Radisson Hotel by the airport is not open to the public. I believe it is only open to wholesalers. Ocassionaly they open it up to the public, but it is nothing special, more for small business owners or importers and exporters. Cheap quality shoes, clothes, perfumes, wigs...nothing you couldn't fin anywhere else in South Florida.

Aventura is by far and away the best. All malls here have that trashy element I mean come on look where we are. All but Bal Harbour maybe. But Aventura is the best experience overall: Good stores, true diversity all across the board...highly recommended.

I was shocked to see some people like the Dolphin Mall! It is a teen bop magnet, just like Sunset Place. Please someone explain the charm of Dolphin Mall, it feels like a Sawgrass imitation colored by a 4 year old and populated with 14 year olds. The stores are not as good as Sawgrass either!

Sawgrass is my favorite Broward Mall...

And the Falls is the nicest mall for that old Miami feeling...it doesn't have that over populates, mass consumption feeling, it is actually peaceful and beautiful. I can't say that I shop there, but I have walked through it several times.

Oh let's see which is the WORST mall??

I vote for the OLD 163 St. Mall (now converted into Wal Mart), Westland Mall and the Mall of America. What are your picks and why?

163rd St-Dangerous, ghetto and bad stores

Westland- Never kept up with the times, horrendous decor, unattractive, few good stores.

Mall of Americas- Same as Westland but with WORSE stores.
