South Coast Plaza is a luxury super-regional shopping centre of approximately 260,000 sqm (2.8 million square feet) in Costa Mesa, Orange County, developed and operated by C.J. Segerstrom and Sons since its original 1967 opening. The property holds the largest concentration of luxury brands of any shopping centre on the US West Coast and consistently ranks among the highest-grossing retail properties in the United States by annual sales volume. The Costa Mesa location places it at the geographic centre of Orange County’s affluent coastal communities, from Newport Beach and Laguna Beach through Irvine, Mission Viejo, and the broader South County residential corridor.
The anchor structure places Bloomingdale’s, Macy’s and Nordstrom across the main department store tier, with Saks Fifth Avenue historically part of the luxury department store structure but now subject to the 2026 Saks closure programme. The luxury boutique circuit is among the most complete outside Manhattan: A. Lange and Sohne, Alaïa, Audemars Piguet, Balenciaga, Balmain, Berluti, Bottega Veneta, Brunello Cucinelli, Bvlgari, Cartier, Celine, CHANEL, Chopard, Christian Louboutin, Delvaux, Dior, Dolce and Gabbana, Fendi, Ferragamo, Giorgio Armani, Givenchy, Gucci, Harry Winston, Hermes, Hublot, IWC, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Louis Vuitton, Loro Piana, Miu Miu, Patek Philippe, Prada, Rolex, Saint Laurent, Tiffany and Co, Vacheron Constantin, Valentino, Van Cleef and Arpels, and Versace. Dining anchors include The Capital Grille, Morton’s The Steakhouse, Water Grill, and Din Tai Fung. The home tier covers Crate and Barrel, Pottery Barn, West Elm, and Williams Sonoma.
Orange County holds approximately 3.2 million residents with among the highest household income concentrations in California. Proximity to Newport Beach, Irvine, and South Orange County, combined with I-405 positioning, creates a catchment extending north into Los Angeles County and south toward San Diego for high-value luxury purchases. International tourism from Southern California resort and convention markets supplements the permanent residential base.
South Coast Plaza defines the West Coast luxury retail benchmark. Its sales productivity and boutique circuit depth make it the essential Southern California flagship location for any brand targeting the California luxury consumer. For brands entering the US West, South Coast Plaza holds the same market anchoring function as Neiman Marcus at Bal Harbour or the flagship Beverly Hills luxury corridor within the national luxury network.
Sit-down dining at the property includes AnQi Bistro, CALÓ Kitchen + Tequila, Claim Jumper Steakhouse & Bar, Din Tai Fung, Hamamori Restaurant and Sushi Bar, Knife Pleat, Morton's The Steakhouse and Populaire Modern Bistro. Quick options include Pressed and Wahoo's Fish Taco.
Yes. BE Fit Modern Pilates - OC operates at the property.
