I've been to The Grove once. The only department store is Nordstrom, which if there only had to be one, I'm glad it's that. It's nice if you like strolling in sunny weather. I'd go there again. There are a nice variety of stores, but it's too small. It's similar to the Fashion Island shopping mall in Newport Beach, CA, but a lot smaller.
Pros: nice scenery
Cons: too small
