Called both numbers, the one from the website and yelp several times on Saturday to ask a simple question before making the trek all the way from Corrales. I let it ring and ring and each time it finally picked up and stated "the wireless costumer is not available please try again later" Like how many times later?? Not good business to not pick up on a Saturday. All we wanted to know was if they carried king crab for a special event. Very disappointed. read more

This was surprisingly a mixed experience. Very thing initially seemed like it was great until I brought my groceries and within 2-3 days all of it was going bad and smelling rotten. I would not recommend buying your fresh fruits or veggies there. Prices are for the most part reasonable. They also have fried duck that can be bought as half or whole. Overall they have construction and most part is kept decently clean. Staff is friendly and genuinely helpful. read more

Not in a great part of town to begin with, when I visited this market a year ago I found it charming and clean. Not so much the case now. It is very rundown and filthy. We shopped there specifically for a duck for our thanksgiving dinner which turned out to be completely inedible. After roasting it to the proper temp it was tough as shoe leather and tasted rotten. Would not recommend buying anything from here to anyone. read more

I called and they don't sell fish fillets they sell whole fish so I guess if somebody wants to work that hard to bake a fish or if you want to do fish fillets for dinner you have to fillet them yourself that was a turn off for me and and I didn't go purchase anything from them Just that it's not convenient I'm from New York and every modern city in the world will sell the whole fish and for slightly more will sell for late fish That's just a matter profit I don't see what the problem here is You can make more money in the process read more

I was surprised it had a fair amount of stuff that my HMart did in Denver. Quality was poorer but at least I found some of my favorite seafood and veggies that I can't find anywhere else. read more

By far, my favorite place to shop in ABQ. I drive 131 miles to shop here. The vegan frozen section grows every time I go. The produce is exceptional and they carry king oyster mushrooms perfect for vegan pulled pork recipes. They carry a wide selection of plant-based spicy "meat" snacks and the BEST GUMMIES on the planet. There are tons of specialty kitchen equipment and a huge variety of all the unique ingredients needed to cook Chinese, Japanese, Indian, and Korean dishes that you cannot find anywhere else. It's an experience and a half. read more

While this store has a dizzying variety of Asian market items, staff provided zero assistance when asked for help. So if you don't mind completely fending for yourself among aisle after aisle of groceries, you may be fine. I, on the other hand, was desperate to find items which seemed to be stowed secretly in parts unknown and I left empty handed. Sadly, I probably won't return because service was so bad. Fortunately, there are other shopping options for Asian grocery items in the ABQ. read more

sometimes run out of stuff i am looking for but always has a great variety of veggies, food, noodles, snacks, household stuff, medicine etc. good vegan variety too just need to look hard read more

I tend to follow Jennifer L. around a bit, it seems (Stalker Alert). Moreover, I tend to plagiarize her as well, what gives? Nevertheless, she's spot on, again! It is a Ranch 99, just not. If that makes sense? Any Asian person from the West Coast (there I go generalizing again, my bad) who shops for Asian groceries knows all about Ranch 99 Market. They are the super grocery store for everything Asian! Ever been to the one in Vegas? Huge! This is just like it - similar in name too, which makes one wonder if they are somehow affiliated. Regardless, they have pretty much everything you need from pretty much every different Asian ethnicity. Huge fresh fish selection, dried noodle goods from around the globe, and everything in between. Forget Talin Market, this place has them beat! Well, Talin is a bit fancier you might say, but this place beats their inventory hands down. In addition, they have a little deli/restaurant in the back. No name, just the deli/restaurant area, cash only, but decent grub at a decent price. Head-on roasted duck ready to go? Yup! Roasted pig ready to go? Yup! Give em' a go, I think you'll be glad you did. read more

999 Seafood Supermarket - Grub from their deli/restaurant - Seafood Markets Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

Not the same as a Californian Asian market, but for the desert pretty damn good. And even more important is how helpful they are. I had a lovely woman (perhaps the manager) looking over my grocery list and going in the back to find produce that had not been put out yet. Between this store and Talin I can almost get everything I need. Almost! Now if it weren't an hour from home... read more

Its got what you need when it comes to asian necessities. Sauces, spices and dried goods are there. The building is a little older, its not like in other states like california where theres a place to eat inside or food made ready to order. For sure this place has seen better days.Veggies seem like they have been sitting there a while. If you are planning on making pho this is the place to go to get what you need. read more

As much as I love and want to support local Asian businesses, my experience here just wasn't that great. Pros: They have a large selection of East Asian goods, everything from snacks, seaweed, sauces, noodles, rice, fresh meat, fresh produce and an assortment of frozen products. Cons: The store didn't feel clean. I don't know how the store is usually run but during my visit today, no one wiped down the carts between customers and some employees did not wear their masks properly. For context, I am someone who has shopped in Asian markets on the West Coast all my life. 99 Ranch, H-mart, TS Emporium, local Chinese grocery stores in San Francisco, if you can name it, I've probably been before. As recently as June, I shopped at a local 99 Ranch in SoCal, so I know that other Asian grocery stores are taking Covid seriously in their cleaning and sanitation standards. With this in mind, sadly I won't be coming back, at least until Covid-19 is under control. In the meantime, I will try my luck at the smaller Korean grocery stores in ABQ. read more

Staff not wearing masks, not many people in this place wearing masks. Food seems to have been left out, you can see on frozen food it has freezer burn. I came for items in packages so I am okay read more

I'd give zero stars if I could. I have been traveling all day and stopped in Albuquerque for the night. I see that this Asian store is open today so I call and ask, "Hi, I'm calling to see if you have a specific coconut milk in stock, please? " Lady responds, "Yes, we do." Ummm.. so I continue, "Yes, it's Aroy-D brand coconut milk. " She screams into the phone, "YES WE DO!" Um. No. I'm not driving an extra 20 minutes to see that woman or deal with that dismissive behavior. Peace + read more

This place is amazing and has everything I need and plenty of things I didn't know I need until I stumbled across them.

Ever since they had new ownership, the quality of service went downhill, especially the cashiers. Every time I am in there, I am being scrutinized by this one specific cashier. She's also pretty rude based on my past interactions with her and her demeanor as well. It's as if she hates being there. I avoid her at all cost if another cashier/lane is available. all the other cashiers I have come into contact with are fine. It's unfortunate that all the cashiers under the previous ownership are no longer there. Additionally they charge $0.10 for plastic bags during the pandemic when they weren't supposed to charge. Selection of groceries and food items are great and I appreciate the new/modern look they are attempting to achieve. Sometimes, however, they would sell items that have been expired. read more

This is essentially a Ranch 99 out in the desert. As close to a Chinatown market as you'll get in ABQ. Featuring all the different noodle types, sauces, drinks, desserts, and fresh vegetables. Young coconuts, too, just like the bigger Chinatown markets. Selection of seafood in the back too, but admittedly I haven't looked at it since I hate seafood. Skip Talin Market and come here. Prices are a little on the high side and selection is not quite as good as Chinatown, but that can be forgiven because it's ABQ. read more

I would love to give this location 5 stars as they have a huge variety selection of items and prices are reasonable as this is our default store. Lately, the fresh vegetables have slowly diminished. Every time we need new ingredients for a recipe, we look for them in the supermarket and can't find it. I agree with the other reviews that when you ask an employee for some help, it's useless. I asked a stocker where I could find a certain item, showed him a photo of the product on my phone, and he said I needed to go to the front customer service. Really? It shows the brand name and what the item looks like and you're a stocker, you should know what you're placing on the shelves. As always, we walked up and down each aisle several times to only give up. So yes, you have to defend for yourself when looking for a particular item as floor service is almost non-existence. read more

I've been too spoiled by the bay area where fresh Asian vegetables are plenty. I felt a little sad looking at wilted, older vegetables with flies buzzing around them. The prices are higher, the dry goods are not as varied as other markets such as 99 ranch, SF market, etc. Watch your food closely as I encountered expired product on the shelves. I didn't buy meat, but there is a large butcher counter in the back. I peeked in on the little cooked food area on the side and saw a roast duck ready to go. The store itself has seen better days, and so has the neighborhood. I encountered some men telling at each other as I exited the store in broad daylight. I'm unsure if I'd come back unless I truly needed something that couldn't be purchased off the internet. I hope that their produce was just having a bad day. read more

The best Asian grocery store that I've found in ABQ so far. It's not as large as Talin, but has more reasonable prices. Shopping here gave me that feel I used to get shopping in Chinatown in Chicago--except that 999 DOES take credit cards :) thank you, 999. There's a pretty decent selection of fresh produce and from what I've seen is actually quite fresh. I was also amazed at how much vegan and vegetarian food they had! So far I've had a wonderful week of eating homemade Asian food from here and all has been delicious. They've got a new local customer! read more

Looking to make authentic Vietnamese or Thai food? This is the place to go. When you walk in it looks and smells exactly like most good Asian grocery stores. You can many things that you won't find in a Albertsons, Ralphs or Sprouts and don't even bother making a Thai dish if you don't have the right ingredients. read more

If you're full Asian (me) or half or quarter or wannabe Asian, you will ABSOLUTELY LOVE shopping at 999. This is the ONLY place in town where I can get anything I want for my Southeast Asian food fix. VISIT IT TODAY! read more

This place is not helpful. Virtually No one at 999 speaks English. Go to Ta Lin where shelves are organized by nationality, Bangkok, new deli, Tokyo etc. people are very helpful. Good experience. read more

Pretty big selection of different products especially noodles and ramen. The jarred kimchi is amazing and goes great with the ramen. Was looking for Korean rice cakes but I couldn't find any but overall a good store. read more

Go here weekly for groceries run. They carried variety of meats and vegetables. Not the cleanest place but definitely they have all the asian thing you need to make your favorite asian dishes. read more

I can say with authority that this is the best Asian grocery in the region. It rivals such mainstays as the Ranch 99 chain in California, where I lived for 25 years. I say "with authority" because I spent five years in Asia and know how to cook several East Asian and Southeast Asian cuisines. The selection of packaged, canned and frozen goods is truly jaw dropping -- there's a long aisle dedicated just to dry noodles from every country. The fish is fresh, clean and the selection is good. They even have live dungeness crab for a decent price and live lobster (a bit expensive, but where else can you get live lobster in the desert?). The produce section could be better and more comprehensive but I did find what I needed, including fresh lemongrass and galanga. They have a small restaurant/deli attached. It was a little disappointing (though it could have been the time of day). The pho maker wasn't on duty and nobody knew when he was coming back. The food in the steam table was mediocre. They also sell whole and half roast duck in the deli. If I was the owner I'd spruce the place up a little and get some new carts, but otherwise I was very impressed. read more

Just moved into the area .I've been coming here everyother day or so to pickup some stuff..the staff doesn't make you feel welcome and they dont really seem to know what they carry in the store.. the cashier is super unfriendly. As a joke I brought a buddy with me on one of my shopping trips to witness . As we were purchasing I tried to make small talk with here and she flat out pretended i didnt exist like no eye contact no I'm sorry i dont speak English..nothing.. my friend was amazed i really tried with this place but i just cant five this place a good review .. read more

We have been spoiled with 99 ranch in the bay area. On our road trip we stop by 999, expecting to have the same experience as 99. We were excited to find some fresh Asian fruits at 999 through yelp pictures. But it was a big dissapointments. Limited selection and a few were rotten.The store also smell awful! Thanks goodness we didn't have to come back because it seems to be the only Asian market in the area. read more

I regularly go to this grocery -about once or twice a month. First thing you notice as soon as you enter is the smell; it smells like..a market. You can smell different types of herbs, produce, meat and seafood all fused together. It can be offputting for some, but not to me! It has the real asian market feel. Of course this is milder version as compared to the actual markets in asian countries I've been to. Also, you'll notice lots of Asians with different nationalities shop here. They talk in different languages. Their produce section offers the freshest unique fruits and vegetables. I can say the same for their meat. They have the pork belly cut! And other miscellaneous parts of various animals such as feet, innards, ears, pork snout and even blood! I buy fresh seafood from them and ask them to clean it for me. Recently, like for the past 3 months, I've noticed changes like its cleaner and more organized than it used to be. It used to have lots of expired goods still stocked on the shelves and not so fresh frozen goods. I don't know, maybe they changed management? Or something. They even changed their name recently from 99 Bahn, now to 999 Seafood Supermarket. As compared to the other asian grocery, some prices here are lower than the other store, and vice versa. But this is my prefered, go-to asian grocery in town for fresher produce and that asian market vibe. I even spotted Asian Buddhist monks shopping here last time I was here! read more

If this place were bustling and stocked it would be the same as any of a number of such markets in Oakland CA or Philadelphia PA that I have been to. Unfortunately, by every appearance, this place is going out of business. Empty of customers, empty shelves, fish and meat departments that were...well, sketchy at best and downright terrifying at worst. Seriously, I can't quite figure what other people have been visiting but this place was a rundown ghost town of an Asian supermarket. Did I mention that it looked half the shelves were empty and weren't being restocked? I would love to be mistaken because it's pretty close to where I live and it would be nice to not have to pay the ridiculous prices being asked at Talin. I'll drop in another day but I don't have high hopes. read more

I am not a fan of the meat counter, but produce is good on the weekends. But it is the variety of sauces and all those other ingredients that make me a fan. They have all the chinese spices, etc. And they have a hot food pre-made section takes cash--or you can pay after ordering at the cashiers up front of the store. We tried the Salt and Pepper shrimp, and it was really good--just like Oakland Chinatown in California. read more

The cashiers are rude rude rude! They don't even acknowledge your existence. We bought a rice cooker there that was junk. Tried to return it. The woman pushed the button a hundred times, examined the styrofoam it came in, and insisted she needed to check it out to re-sell the item. Re-sell the item that we stated did not work??? read more

I had planned a crawfish boil for my son's graduation this weekend. I ordered the crawfish directly from Louisiana. They showed up earlier than expected and upon arrival many of them were already dead. I panicked. I called a few places in hopes they would have some live crawfish - we live in the desert so I wasn't very hopeful. I work in the international district across the street from 999 seafood market. I've never been in. My fiancé and I drove there yesterday morning. While they didn't have any crawfish at the time, they were willing to try to order some to have them available for this morning. The owner was amazing. He was helpful and kind and willing to bend over backwards to help us. Additionally, i've never seen so much fresh seafood in New Mexico in my life. I will return their exclusively to buy any type of fish I need. read more

Seafood in the 505? Unbelievable right? but it's always fresh. I brought my fiancé here to verify. Yup, can't go wrong.

Be aware. The people in this store are so rude. Many of the products are not price marked. I asked the woman at customer service and her answer was simply "I don't know". Well who knows? I again asked a gentleman who works there and got the same answer as he walked away. If there is a language problem, maybe the ones who can't speak English shouldn't work directly with customers. I definitely don't recommend this store. If you need the Asian items, there are other markets that have it and aren't rude. read more

I like the Asian supermarket. But this one looks like so old. Last time I go, I even get a bad fish. So bad. But they have a lot Asian food. I like that Asian snacks. read more

My togo place for Japanese sweet potatoes. I went there yesterday and saw that they have jackfruit now for $1.29/lb, which is not bad.
