Just WOW! First let me say that this gallery has some beautiful pieces! That's only the beginning, what you see in the window will pull you in, once inside, you really just need to sit or stand and take it all in. Lorne was so nice and helpful. We have been looking for amethyst for a while and could not find it locally where we live in Florida. I first saw a beautiful piece in another store, but left because I wanted to think about it. As we wandered back to our room, we ran across Regis, and I saw the perfect piece in the window. We went in and were immediately greeted with smiles and no judgment. We were shown many things, but ended up leaving with nothing. The next day we went back and Lorne greeted us happily and we decided to make our purchase. Sorry this is so long, but I must say that when you receive great, personable customer service, you have to make note of it and show appreciation. There were so manu details that added to our experience that i can't list them here. Regis Galerie now has a customer for life!

Sheila is the reason for the 5 star review! It was her friendly smile that made us come back. We purchased a few drinking glasses and while our total didn't amount to a lot at no point did she make us feel like such. This 5 start review is based on my experience with Sheila

Incredibly professional, fun to work with and very helpful! Staff were extremely friendly, courteous, and were not pushy nor high-pressure in any way. They spoiled my wife and helped us find spectacular jewelry items that made my wife cry, at a price that I couldn’t say no to. I am a customer and friend for life - I will make trips to Vegas again just to shop with this family jeweler! Totally made our trip - Thank you Regis Galerie!!

We had a fantastic experience at Regis Galerie. My wife and I were celebrating our 20th anniversary in Vegas and were shopping for a Safire ring as her gift. After browsing multiple stores, my wife found the perfect ring at Regis. The staff was very warm and patient and gave us a fantastic deal, complete with full GIA certification. Then they later sent us 4 glass tumblers and 4 wine glasses to our home in Virginia to thank us for our purchase and congratulate us on our anniversary. Fantastic store! Fantastic staff!
