A Truly Pleasant Experience
by reviewerguy at Citysearch
I recently visited this store during a business stopover in Chicago. I was recommended to visit the store by friends from Boston and Los Angeles who knew of the store from articles in fashion magazines. I was in search of something simple and fun for my wife...and I found EXACTLY what she wanted (or so she tells me...). The proprietor, Ikram, also got involved in the decision making...a true blessing for someone (me) who knows very little about clothes or what is hot this season. I must have spent an hour browsing all the racks with Ikram's team and we somehow narrowed down the choice to a beautiful and practical cocktail dress. I could have bought more but I think the next step is a return visit...with my wife. Great merchandise and a friendly and helpful staff. Kudos!
- Pros: Great merchandise and a friendly and helpful staff

First Visit Will Also Be My Last!

I visited Ikram on Sat., 9/17, and was very disappointed. After a few minutes in the shop, there is absolutely no way I would spend a dime. Ikram carries a number of very exclusive labels, but the staff should be waiting tables. The store was almost empty, but never once was I greeted. The three saleswomen just stood around idly, copping a bored New York attitude but without the pretty faces to pull it off. When a customer asked about an item, the girl said in exasperation, "I don't know." When the same customer asked to see the item, the girl rolled her eyes, exhaled loudly, and reluctantly obliged. Ikram should prioritize customer service, especially in a neigborhood where there are numerous competitors. Although I just moved nearby, my first visit to Ikram will certainly be my last! It's just a second-rate New York pretender anyway.
- Cons: Rude, Lazy Staff
