Apart from the Outlet Shoppes this is by far my favorite shopping center in El Paso. Making it an open outlet mall was a good idea, since the architecture of the shopping center is fantastic, especially down in the Promenade area. Going to The Fountains will really make you want to pull out your phone or camera to take some pictures as you walk along. Its been a while since its opening and luckily the shopping center is still relatively nice and tidy. Every now and then they host events on the small stage theyve got on the Promenade area, such as concerts and outdoor movies, which is always great. The only real downside to this outdoor feature is that since its outdoors, capricious weather will really take a toll on your visit unless youre planning on staying in one shop or restaurant during your visit. If you want to make the most out of the setting, youll have to make sure to check the weather is good. But then again, this is an issue with all outdoor shopping centers/malls, and its out of peoples control. The shops are all very nice and most have a great selection of items and/or good deals. The majority of the stores are catered towards accessories and clothing, though theres still a sizable selection of stores that cater to other needs, such as Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, GameStop, Jared, etc. However, there is not that many shops at this moment, though theres certainly a lot more than when they first opened. Thankfully though Cielo Vista Mall is right next to The Fountains, so if youve got some "unfinished business", there is an easily available second option. I really do recommend this place. Its fun to explore it, its got nice stores and restaurants and theres still more room for more shops which hopefully will be filled next year. So yeah, if you plan to go around shopping at El Paso, definetly remember to come to The Fountains.

This is the newest mall in El Paso and its located right next to Cielo Vista Mall. It has that California Outside mall vibe to it and if you can ignore the fact you are in El Paso and pretend you are not in the desert it feels like the real thing with imported Palm trees and elegant buildings. Parking can be hectic. If you are lucky you will find parking right outside the store you wanted to go to ,otherwise you will have to drive slowly to a few public parking areas located inside the mall which can turn into a tedious task if its busy. Once you stash your car somewhere you can truly enjoy the place. Its best to come here from dusk to nightime when the lights go on this place looks its best. It has an ice skating area and many good restaurants as well as a Best Buy , Barnes & Noble and many other stores. Nice place.

Awesome outdoor mall in El Paso. Very ahead of the curve for the city. Parking can be pretty inconvenient, but the outdoor stroll through the restaurants and shops is well worth it. They have; mexican food, chinese, Italian, a steak house, a french cafe and quick order spots etc... There is no shortage of options as far as food goes and the grass stage area is a perfect spot to rest off after a meal. Frozen yogurt shop is in the middle of all the action of you want dessert, but not at the restaurant. Fountains is putting El Paso in the right direction!

The places were good and there is a great variety of stores to choose, the problem is that the place is an open space, which means that rain and heat are ever present nuisances, the other bad thing is that the two most buisy places are all cramped together and make the parking almost impossible near them. Another thing is that there is only ONE main street to acces the parking lots and its tiny, which leads to a continuous traffic jam. All that together makes the place a mayhem in some weekends, vacations and holydays.

I took my kids and cousins kids to play at the splash pad...not even 5 mins there my cousin sons foot was cut with skin removed...later my son slipped and fell in the exact same spot and was cut on the knee, his left hand skin removed and deep cut...and another little cousin with a cut toe...i tried feeling for something that was cutting them and couldnt find the source...what was supposed to a fun day ended up bloody and frustrating...never ever again!

Love visiting the Fountains at Farah with my family. Theres something for everyone. I like the selection of stores and restaurants. The only thing is that although the outside is wonderful specially at night, during summer is very annoying. They need more shade or trees areas. During summer I just go to the specific store that I need to but dont really bother to go walking very far. El Pasos weather its not for this kind of set-ups.

Going to the fountains is always fun and makes the experience of shopping a lot more worth it. They have a great selection of stores that are nowhere else in El Paso and the property management and owners are continuously striving to bring a wider variety of business. I also recommend to come to get a good bite and walk around the park area where they occasionally host live music.

This area for shopping is nice and its easy to access the stores but some of the stores they had their they act like theyre high Zion oh hi in the expensive but you go to other cities and theyre like one of those little stores that you go to for Ross for Less that other places that are really nice like the hamburger joint called Mooyah and hamburgers are delicious to eat there

With the amount of money they spent on this place you would think they would pay top dollar on there drainage systems. Its well decorated and great selection of shopping, but it is all over shadowed by the stench of sewer! Its a create place if you want to walk around, especially at night with all the lights and music. They often have free concerts but again, the smell!

Muy mal servicio del mesero que nos atendió, ni siquiera nos dios lo que nos correspondía. No creo que regresemos, muy caro, y no esta tan bueno, es mejor Cafe central!

Crave is one of my favorite restaurants in EP, this time was different because the hostes doesnt have a common sense, we were waiting for 20 minutes while there were tables available. Also, the bartender was really rude, he didnt say high or any word. We ordered two beers and he just threw them at us. Its really sad that this restaurant have that kind of service.

Stop sign in parking garage near 8a fell and literally almost hit me. I was walking through there on my lunch break and if I had been walking a least two feet to the left I would have gotten hit. Just an FYI so they can inspect. I work in one location of here and was on lunch break. Any other information you can contact me through email. Thanks.

A very welcome change from the traditional indoor mall experience. Very modern and a variety of stores and restaurants to choose from. Ive heard there is ice skating in the Winter, but Ive never been. Lots of new places to eat here and some local favorites as well. Plenty of parking with the parking garage, upfront parking is luck of the draw.
