    The place smells like algae when you walk in. Frozen food looks like you are in someone's personal freezer.

    Very fresh seafood selection. If they don't have what you want, let the owner know and he will get it for you.

    If you're into cooking fresh seafood at home, this is the place. I went for my favorite sashimi,…read morewhich is abalone and geoduck but they have a lot of other live options like fish, crab and lobster to prepare at home. Even frogs! Didn't realize this, but they will prepare the items for you like take the abalone out of the shell and clean the geoduck for you so all I had to do was slice and eat. Saw them doing the same for some fish, which was cool. Be sure to tip them if they do prep for you. Prices seemed reasonable to high, but considering my favorites are difficult to find, price was really no object. I wish I didn't have such expensive taste or I'd be back weekly :). Language is a bit of a barrier but can get by with pointing and basic English. Pro tip: ample parking in back or street parking right up front.

    If you're not near the water then this is one of the better seafood markets in the SGV. They have…read more a large assortment of fresh live seafood from large king crabs and Maine lobsters to live fish like sheepheads and rockfish. They also have shellfish and other live specialities like frogs. As far as service goes you pick the one you want and they get it from the tank for you. The place is very clean and the tanks and floors are also very clean for a live seafood market

I usually place an order through their Instagram DMs a few weeks in advance for holidays. You can ask for their excel spreadsheet and they'll send it to you with prices and this same spreadsheet updates every year! There is also a little deposit for holiday pick up depending on the size of your order. Their sashimi platter is beautiful, fresh, delicious, and always a party favorite. I usually get: Salmon, Toro, Yellowtail, Scallops, and Oysters. If available, uni trays and fresh wasabi (which can also be picked up at HMart). Scallops are my favorite but every piece of fish is so good and cut perfectly. Parking and pick up is easy. It is a very small store front with one party inside at a time and pay at the counter. Highly recommend for party platters for fresh sashimi.

They even have frozen Wagyu meats. If you're into rare and premium fruits, they have honey pineapples, pink pineapples, and strawberries that cost over $100 a box, or even $20 for just one strawberry! ::Customer Service:: The staff is very friendly and helpful, offering recommendations and answering questions about their unique products. Some of the items are definitely on the pricey side, especially the rare fruits. ::M's Notes:: Parking lot in the back

Be sure to pick up some cherries that always seem to be on sale they will scoop it out for you they have a person that stands there and Scoops out the cherries for you because you know there are unruly customers that will pick through those things and Destroy other things so yeah watch out for that

What really pissed me off today was the cashier at station 6 (older Asian lady with her hair in a bun and with glasses). We were waiting for bags and she started telling us to put the items in our cart. So, we just assumed she was out of bags and we started putting the items into the cart. When it came time to pay, that's when this db decided to hand over bags and shot a bag at me while I was picking up items in the cart. Of course I ask her why the fuck she threw the fucking bag at me like that. Did she understand? No idea but she did stare back at me.

The market is huge, well-stocked, and extremely clean. Fresh fruits and vegetables, quality meats and seafood, neatly stocked deli section, etc. But my most favorite area of the supermarket is their enormous aisles of snacks! Yes, international snacks galore. Rice cakes, Peppero sticks, seaweed, dried squid, international Frito Lay potato chips, etc., just to name a few. Lol. I usually buy their fruits here as they're always fresh. Their seafood and meat section imo, is a bit more expensive than other markets. But the quality never disappoints. You could pretty much find most of your grocery needs here. Again, the aisles are clean and well stocked. H Mart also has a food court area that with an abundant amount of seats. They're always busy as well. People go there for meals or to orders to go. It's convenient and it's also affordable. Overall, the location is convenient for me, and their parking lot is large. However, the lot os also shared with other businesses in the plaza. I like the cleanliness, and the many choices of food items offered here. Yes, it's my go to for my Asian grocery food needs.

So already an eh sign. Walked in & just started looking around to see if I found anything to try. I did not but also came in with a list of items I wanted already & I only found 1 item on that list. I asked 3 people on the floor if they knew where this was or that was, & no one knew where anything was or spoke any English. So myself including them were all confused lol The whole store smelt like fish, which okay I get they have a whole section dedicated to fresh fish / sushi bowls served but wow it was a strong smell throughout the whole store. Made this trip really quick. Decided to cut it early, I left with a bag of chips & a ramen for lunch & chose to get the heck out of there lol The cashier hayde did not greet me or anything either! So no customer service, just started ringing my items & asked if I needed a bag lol So yeah overall not the best first time overall experience ! I will say the ramen I chose is yummy! Very spicy but good choice. Maybe I need to go with someone who knows what they're doing, so change my mind on this store cause of right now I would probably never come back lol

    Alexander's (in Howie's Market) has been our go-to for quality meats for the last ten years…read more Sometimes a Costco steak hits just fine, but sometimes you want that juicy, marbled American Wagyu and they have had it here without fail. It's not "fake" American wagyu that's barely prime grade either--the marbling is a perfect balance between the richness of Australian/Japanese wagyus and a regular prime. The staff here are generally friendly and very helpful, and work hard to get you what you want. The only issue I've had over the years was one of the older guys behind the counter charging us for something much more expensive than what we actually asked for, and we had to drive all the way back to get a refund. Not sure what the deal was since we ran into him when getting the refund and he seemed annoyed rather than apologetic lol. But! Aside from that, everyone's great. When they're busy, grab a number from the corner and they'll call. There's a great selection in the case of just about every type of meat including fresh seafood. Bought a slab of Icelandic cod today as well because it looked so nice. If you order a lot, they'll ring you up in the back, otherwise they'll let you bring it to the front checkout to pay.

For the meal, I also made some keto-friendly spaghetti that I tossed in butter, pasta water, and freshly grated Parmesan reggiano.

The customer service with Chris was impeccable and they spend the time to answer questions. Honestly, I couldn't be happier.

    I am no stranger to Thuan Phat El Monte Superstore. I have been here many times in previous years…read more It is a huge Asian supermarket comparable to other Asian supermarkets such as 99 Ranch, San Gabriel Superstore, GW or Great Wall Supermarket, etc. Free parking is plenty in the front and back of the store. There are individual merchandise and food vendors along the front inside of store. They carry many different international dry goods, perishable food items, fresh produce, meat and seafood, frozen items, and so much more. You can spend hours shopping here. Most recently, my Mom and I came to checkout the sugarcane juice vendor. We got ourselves one large cup with ice for $7. It is $12 if you want no ice. You have to pay more money if you want all juice. Sugarcane juice tasted refreshing and sweet. I would get it again with no ice next time. I may just bring my own ice or drink it as is.

    That said, you have to be careful with packaged frozen seafood. Unless you know exactly what it is…read moreand how to cook it, do not just trust your eyes. Do not assume that something will have the same taste and texture as what you remember from hometown just because it looks similar. I once bought frozen razor clams that turned out to be chewy, smelly, and almost impossible to chew. Another time, I bought a bag of frozen green mussels. They had exactly the same shape and color as the ones I usually bought from Chinese markets, but they were not cooked. Once defrosted, they practically melted into water. Vietnamese markets also sell many kinds of fish by weight. Most of them are good, but you need real experience when buying raw seafood. Otherwise, it is very easy to waste money. Thuan Phat is a typical Vietnamese market in this sense. You can get most of the ingredients a Chinese family needs. Their fried or dried pork skin is actually much better than what I have found in most Chinese grocery stores. But again, only buy what you know. You need to know the quality, and you need to know how to process it. This Thuan Phat also has several tanks and a full seafood counter for live seafood, including crabs, tilapia, and other fish. The prices are lower than at many Chinese markets, and honestly, the quality is not bad at all.
