Tessuti Zoo

Colorful and crazy, this place will give you a headache if you stay inside too long. It’s a bit Kitchy, but the selection of books and crazy wall art make it fun. It’s not my style, but I’m sure this funky stuff will appeal to some people.

Love, love love this store — the colors, the creativity, the whimsical items. Nothing like it anywhere else.

Emily has carefully and diligently picked out really nice quality gifts. All are unique and many are locally hand made by artists. If you’re looking for fun gifts to bring home from your trip to the Monterey peninsula this is a must stop!

While the stuff this store carries is more or less aimed towards girls, the owner, Emily Owens, is very nice. If you’re visiting Pacific Grove, be sure to stop here and look for Emily, and tell her (And if she’s not there), one of her associates that I told you to stop by and say hi.

This is truly a fabulous shop with so much eye candy and fun stuff you will not be able to control yourself. The owner creates everything from fun and fabulous dolls to colorful one of a kind furniture. There is something for everyone at this little shop. There are books, jewelry, novelty items, hand made one of a kind creations, and so much more. This is a must see store and well worth the trip to Pacific Grove. I promise your face will light up as soon as you walk through the front door. The owner Emily and ladies who work there are all gems as well!

This place is insane!
Felt like a room inside The Wonka Factory.
So eclectic and randomly charming, it is impossible to wander this establishment. And not feel like a child.
Soo much fun

My hubs & I were in Pac. Grove last wknd for our 20^th anniversary & happened to have driven past this cute little boutique too many times to not stop. It had just started to rain & fortunately for us, we found parking right in front! *which isnt easy to do in that area!” I was delighted with all the hand made & unique items. Whimsical, magical, colorful & fun are not enough to explain all that your eyes can see, so walk around slowly & look everywhere & I’m sure you will find a great gift for someone special. We were seeing our kids & granddaughter for dinner that nite in Carmel & I couldnt help myself with all the cute stuff in this little store. I bought her some fancy fairy wings, my husband found some funny unique items for co-​workers & the owner individually wrapped everything seperately in colorful tissue & pretty bags. We had a blast,& will certainly come back again, as we normally vacation in the area at least 4 times a year. Oh yeah, I bought the baby a pair of «monster socks» and wish they had adult sizes cuz I want a pair too!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this shop! Again, with other reviews I posted of Pacific Grove, I wasn’t «feeling it» with the shops and finding a store to enjoy until my daughter and I discovered Tessuti. We founds SOOOO many cute things to enjoy and a fun book we brought home that no one else seemed to be familiar with, yet all her classmates loved it during reading time.
IF you’re looking for a fun shop you will guarantee find something in here worth bringing home!!!

This place is really cute. Really colorful and had merchandise for children and adults. Unique gifts, stuffed animals, novelties, and more. The lady working though kept following us around everywhere and became very upset every time our daughter touched anything, which made us super uncomfortable. It was a little rude, I was right there watching her and I made sure she wasn’t going to break anything or touch something that she shouldn’t but she just wanted to look, like any customer. She made us rush when we could have easily bought more stuff.

I can not say enough about this little shop! What a gem. I went here for the first time this year for Christmas shopping and ended up finding gifts for everyone of all ages. Everything is colorful, fun and imaginative. Terrific!

Colorful, fun, unique, interesting and reasonably priced. Tessuti Zoo has so many wonderful goodies! Great for finding whimsical gifts for others and oneself!
The service is cheerful and friendly. My daughter (11) LOVES this store as well.
This is always a must-​stop-​in whenever we’re in the area (which isn’t often enough.)

Good, fun products (esp. if you’re shopping for a favorite lady with eclectic tastes) and excellent service.

What a great shop! The bright colors on the outside drew me in. The owner’s tastes & point of view are clear once you enter. She loves lotsa colors, has a sense of humor & is fun! I particularly liked the meatball gum & basketcase head basketball hoop. The little weird dolls were great too! I would love one without charms for my dog.

This store is completely fun! The constantly changing window displays make it a great place to window shop too!
