What locals say
Edited to add: they just keep getting worse and I'll be forced to moved. Edited to add: they have admitted to being intentionally loud in the mornings because they are entitled to be at that time...common courtesy doesn't seem to be a thing in life anymore. It's just my thought that if you want good business, maybe try being good to your neighbors, but what do I know right? This business has only cause *multiple* health issues to flare up because of the stress from their noise and inability to sleep due to it. Karma will do its thing, cause these people are not kind. The loudest group of workers I've ever seen. Their "warehouse", which is just a garage...is located near many many residents and they have no decency for the fact that we can't actually get away from sound. They have all these trucks they use to move stuff even just a foot sometimes. They start the second it turns 7, but they are slamming open the garage and slamming items around usually before 7. They will scream at each other so often. No one, and I talk to many people around here, can ever feel like they can relax or get any kind of quiet because it is so constant. The worst company to live near. I don't give them my business because of this. Not that they care, but society should know how truly awful these people are.
Edit 2024: Consistently the cleanest Asian grocery store in Chinatown. They do have minimum spend for credit/debit card so make sure you bring cash if you are making a small purchase. Great variety of products, still open the latest out of all the Chinatown grocery stores! 2019: Lots of variety. Prices ok for Chinatown. Rude cashiers. I still come here every week because they are open until 10, which is convenient for me as a student.
Their fresh products are cheaper than elsewhere but often not fresh. I bought some nectarines and all of them were rotten. I took photo and went back with receipt. The staff wouldnt give me refund as she wanted me to bring the rotten fruit as well.
Located in the Chinatown area around other Asian stores/restaurants, etc. There’s tons of Korean, Filipino, Chinese, etc products, drinks, ingredients, meals, sauces, etc. There’s also a fruit section at the front. Prices are alright. Some products are more expensive than others etc. Overall, especially if you haven’t been to Asia or had Asian influence, if you’re curious this grocery store could be a good place for you to explore.
They scrub the expiration dates!! Careful when you buy, I caught them selling stuff that expired weeks/months ago, that they purposely scrubbed the date off! I checked all of them, and they were basically all scrubbed off besides a few. There is clear evidence they did this because of the marks on each box. Super unsafe and unethical business practices! Very disappointing
