Please avoid this place…read more They sell bunch of expired and not good stuff. I was looking for lavash/ wrap an I purchased two, one made in Turkey and one from Latvia. I opened it 3 days ago and look at mold all over the bread. Also it was all breaking apart which was a reason I could not make some veggie wraps. I bought it on 2/14 afternoon. There was a date on one exp in April and the other one did not have any date on a package. $10 for both went to trash. Sadly it's not the first time I get rotten or spoiled product. I would not recommend! Service is hit and miss . They treat Muslims better for sure. Not going to support such a business with poor customer service and poor quality.

They have a really wide selection, especially when it comes to spices, teas, and herbs, and the…read moreprices on those are actually great, which was a nice surprise. A lot of the canned stuff, like different types of beans, isn't really any cheaper than what you'd find at places like H-E-B. Fruits and veggies looked pretty standard, but the prices were oddly higher than in regular grocery stores. They do carry some interesting sweets, and I always enjoy checking those out. Coffee, though, was more expensive compared to other international stores I've been to. What really stood out in a bad way was the attitude of the staff. No one was rude exactly, but they act like they don't really want to be there, and definitely not like they want you to be there either. Product-wise, no complaints. But the vibe from the people working there? Pretty unfriendly.

THE BIG: Pretty big Vietnamese-style asian grocery store located in North Austin inside the…read moreChinatown center. Parking lot is available. THE BLACK AND WHITE: When I say Vietnamese-style, it's only because most of the internal signage is in vietnamese. It has every asian countries ingredients from China/Korea/Vietnam to The Philippines and indonesia. You can find some really good pricing here on those staples. Fresh produce aisle is a bit limiting. Pretty big seafood area and meat. Walking to your far left side are all the kitchen toolware if you want to level up your kitchen game. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Always enjoy my time here at MT supermarket. Lots of ingredients you won't find at a 99 Ranch or H Mart.

My favorite market. Full of fresh fish, veggies, and meats; seemingly unlimited spices, sauces,…read moredried peppers, dried mushrooms, soup bases (fresh and dried); prepared goodies, teas, milk tea mixes; a ridiculous number of fresh and dried noodle options both seasoned and unseasoned; frozen kimbap, dumplings, bao, everything you didn't even know you wanted, you'll find. They even have alcohol, dishes, candles, other houseware supplies, and some basic American products. Prices area generally competitive, some much better than others. My main complaint is that it can be overwhelming, especially when you're trying to find one specific thing. The other issue is that so many items have mislabeled prices or none at all. This can be challenging when you're trying to stay in budget while faced with more options that you can imagine. Also, fresh prepared items don't necessarily have their ingredients listed which can be scary for less adventurous eaters. The store is generally easy to navigate even through some cluttered set ups.

This week's flavor was Red Bean and Matcha, and HOLY WORD-I-SHALL-NOT-SAY... this absolutely blew me out of the water. The red bean and matcha balanced each other so perfectly, and somehow tasted even better swirled together. Both cashiers were super cool too (was that Japanese I heard them speaking?). The guy with the awesome silver hair mentioned he was also from Houston, and we somehow ended up talking about how Austin's Asian scene just can't compare to how insanely diverse Houston's is. Still, it's always nice connecting over a mutual love for a great Asian environment--which Asahi definitely is. Wow--I've been here for 15 minutes, and I already have so much love for this place. My phone is literally dying as I hastily type this, but I felt obligated to spread the gospel immediately.

I walked into Asahi Imports with ONE GOAL: black sesame soft serve. That was the mission…read more Anything else I bumped into would simply be a bonus. And I didn't know what to expect my first visit. I thought I was going into a mini Japanese version of H Mart or something, but nope. This is very much a Japanese CONVENIENCE STORE with a little extra bonus on the side, so adjust any expectations. SIXTY PERCENT OF THE STORE IS NOODLES. Like WTF...is this a noodle headquarters? It felt unbalanced...like I had walked into the wrong store and wasn't supposed to be there. So many noodles, it scared me. I expected a variety store. Carry on. The layout is also a bit confusing for such a small space. I genuinely wasn't sure what areas were designated for customers and what areas were for employees...at one point wandering way into the back. My bad. They've got a solid selection of imported goods. Slightly pricey, but this is expected since they offer quite a few niche items you can't find everywhere. Still affordable, though. I HAPPILY grabbed some black sesame latte mix to whip up iced lattes at home as well as some black tea flavored soy milk. This is what you come to these stores for! The niche items. Now to the soft serve: Flavor-wise? Good strong black sesame flavor. Texture? Not so great. This was very icy and not creamy at all as I had hoped. The online pics were deceiving. Plus there were clumps in it that should've been blended out. However, it was refreshing and I could MAYBE see myself returning on a hot day for more if I'm close by. They only offer it on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. It's good, but no need to run for this. You can walk. Lol. It scratched the itch but I'm not running back for it. All in all, not an everyday stop, but an "I'll see you when I see you" spot. Know what I mean? 3 stars.

I think this store replaced a Vietnamese restaurant but don't quote me on that. Things changed…read moremonthly or even weekly here in Austin as you know, but I came in here because it was well lit and they had a lot of unique items. I love the selection of different nuts that they had so I got some pistachios and cashews. The guy was so nice that he came out and brought me some large flatbread that was warm from the oven. No charge and all I needed was some hummus or toom to dip. There are an assortment of products from this region there and a really good selection of meats. I noticed as many people came in to buy their goat and lamb. I talked to one customer who said the quality year is very good. I ended up buying a pastry that's sold near the cash register, and it was very flavorful, I think it had potato in it and it was not a Samosa. It was flattened. The service here was very friendly and helpful and I definitely will be back.

This grocery store is a chain across Texas, Nevada, and California. It's the largest Asian grocery…read more chain in the country. This location very close to my place of employment and I often find myself picking up last minute items when we're having events involving food. The produce is always super fresh and they have some amazing baked goods too. Perfect treats for our meetings and events. Who doesn't love fresh fruit and baked goods during the workday? The hot deli bar has been a great source for weekday lunches. When my growling stomach interrupts my work, I can fill up easily there. They've got a lunch meal deal where you can an entree and two sides for around $12. Can't beat that! I always have leftovers too. And, can't forget the great dim sum and imported food offerings. Nice market. Friendly staff. Good prices.

I must have driven past 99 Ranch Market a thousand times. To be completely honest, I always thought…read moreit was a nightclub. Imagine my surprise when I discovered it is actually an Asian grocery store. I was in the area and decided to stop in because I buy my green tea at Asian grocery stores. The selection is incredible, and the prices are usually much better than what you'll find at big-box grocery stores. Once inside, I quickly realized that 99 Ranch Market is much more than just a grocery store. It offers a wide variety of fresh produce, live seafood, quality meats, frozen foods, snacks, and pantry staples from across Asia. One of my favorite parts of shopping at 99 Ranch is browsing the colorful packaging. Many of the products feature bold artwork, vibrant colors, and whimsical characters that make every aisle feel like a new adventure. Also, 99 Ranch also has a food court, bakery, and tea shop. Several staff members approached me asking me if I needed help. And yes...I left with my green tea. Now that I know what 99 Ranch Market really is, when I drive by I will chuckle to myself remembering that I thought it was a nightclub.
