I truly enjoy shopping at this Asian store. They have a lot to offer from the produce to a variety of teas, sauces, Asian snacks/drinks, candies, chips, crackers, coffee, chili sauces, assorted noodles, frozen goods, baked goods, assorted ramen and so much more! read more

Surprised that I haven't made a review about this market yet. They really are the best Asian market here in Spokane. I love their selection of produce - most of them I use for my cooking at home. They have almost everything that you would need for Asian cooking and the cashiers are always so helpful and welcoming. I also love their selection of snacks, almost nostalgic really. read more

If you are accustomed to a large Asian market this one will disappoint. They have a few things but I couldn't find a single item I actually needed. read more

Great pit stop for goodies on our way to friends in Montana. Better selection than the first try at another store but somehow still lacking in noodle variety. Prices are decent for this far away from a major port. Employees are bright and cheery and the facilities are clean. Parking is ample. read more

They have a great variety of produce and Asian products and are so helpful. Truly the best Asian market in the Spokane area.

I absolutely LOVE Best Asian Market. When I need to restock my Pantry with Asian Foods I come here. On Fridays they get there Fresh Produce! I love everything about this store to Clean Bathrooms very kind people that work there very helpful and the Prices are very good. So ya'll Run don't walk and get you some Amazing Asian goodness read more

We like shopping at the Best Asian Market. We have been loyal customers since they operated the Bay Market just down the block from their present location in 2005. The store always has a good selection of fresh, frozen, canned and packaged foods spanning several different Asian cultures available for purchase. The ambiance and crowds are not the same as shopping street markets in Thailand, Hong Kong, Korea, or the Philippines, but the shelves and aisles are much more tidy and organized. Staff are always very helpful when asked questions about their products, and all of them know the physical locations of their merchandise. Their prices are reasonable, especially when considering prices for the same brand items at the "tourist traps" all up and down Division Street (aka Hwy. 395 and US 2), where everything is marked up to catch the out-of-towners on their way through Spokane. The Best Asian Market is open every day except Wednesday and the major national holidays. I once asked, "Why Wednesday?" I was told it was the most convenient day off to accommodate the majority of staff and still be open and available for their loyal customers like me. "Best" is well earned in Best Asian Market! read more

IMO Best Asian Market is better than Asian World. Best Asian actually has some real produce, meats, and seafood. I was super happy to find me some purple sweet potatoes here, been searching all over Spokane and have come up dry. Prices here are pretty great too. Small in comparison to other asian markets on the west side, but this is the best Spokane has to offer. This is now my go to Asian market in Spokane. read more

Best Asian Market - Purple sweet potato - International Grocery Near Me - Spokane, Washington

They are the best Asian store in this town. They recently renovated and everything looks way better. Items are much more visible, properly stored with labels and prices. I think by far they have the cheapest items in town for the most part. This store pretty much carries any Asian things you are looking for from snacks, frozen items, veggies to incense. Staff are always friendly and helpful in assisting and directing you to the proper aisle. Check them every Thursday afternoon for the newly delivered produces. read more

I love Best Asian market and have been coming here since I was a little girl. The staff is always so friendly and willing to help you find anything you need or recommend where you can get it if they don't carry. When covid hit I was so worried that this mom-n-pop shop was going to close but as you can see they're still running! They changed their store lay out to allow social distancing and are always masked and gloves up as well as sanitizing. Please support local read more

Great variety of foods, meats and products. Great place to spend time exploring! Parking lot can be a little tricky.

In a shady part of town. The store itself isn't exactly dirty but it isn't clean. It might be just be the building, they are all grimy in that area. That entire area needs to be nuked from orbit. It has a decent selection, but they could easily offer more. Some items have half a dozen choices, why? Prices are okay, a little more than the Asian market further down Sprague. It is really hard to find things and help is not always easy to find. I had 6 items on my list, found them all but took over 30 minutes. Probably the best Asian grocery store in town and that is super sad. Hey, at least it isn't in Hillyard! read more

Nice little shop. I just moved from another state and I was scared that I wouldn't be able to find certain things I needed for when I make dinner and I'm so glad I found this spot. Will be back definitely. read more

They had some good produce, but I couldn't find any beef bones. I found everything I was looking for. Prices not too bad.

The best Asian market that we have went to in Spokane! The store is small, but they had everything that we were looking for, and more. Staff was friendly and helpful in locating certain items. Prices were cheaper than other Asian markets we have frequented as well. read more

My 2nd review for this location. I visited recently and they are still consistent in their knowledge of key Asian ingredients for my complex recipes. Their service is top notch! Stop by and show them your support. They are a local owned family business and kept everyone employed during the pandemic! read more

It's okay, but I would not go back again. It's an extremely small little store. Almost no Korean products which is what I was after and hardly any staple products. Very limited selection. Staff is very friendly though. read more

I went to this place TWICE to buy korean spicy tofu paste (month apart) and both times i visited, they had expired stuff on the shelf. So watch out when you buy stuff from here. It is very annoying to make a trip to the store just to find out that they sell expired food and they don't seem to care fixing the problem at all. read more

So after living on the West side of WA we had some amazing Asian Stores to shop which I did regularly. I am very happy to have stopped at this store and find some of my favorite things I can't get just anywhere. The prices are REALLY good. read more

After moving here from the Asian-dense population of Bay Area, it's very refreshing to find a grocery here that offers most of the items I could find back home. The store offers a great selection of Asian produce such as bok choy, Chinese broccoli, bean sprouts, etc. And majority of the items are South Asian-based. For the couple of times that I've been here, the staff is always friendly and it's great that it has its own parking lot. If you're here mainly for produce I suggest coming earlier in the day if you can as it sell out fast. The freshness is also a bit or miss for the day. Overall, it's a solid place for Asian ingredients at reasonable pricing. read more

My mom and I found this grocery store when they were in their old location. THANK GOODNESS they're still here! My mom is Japanese and we were both so excited that they have so many Japanese products...fish cakes, jarred seaweed, rice sprinkles with powdered shrimp and Nori, udon, authentic Japanese rice crackers, tofu, Miso paste and Miso soup in packets where you just add water ( it is very delicious!), Moichi in different flavors, Sapporo Ichiban, many brands of Sushi Nori, wasabi, Sushi ginger, Japanese Kewpie mayonnaise, S & B products - like powdered wasabi and mild to hot curry!!! Plus so much more! These are just some of the Japanese items they have. Plus for any other Asian food products, they have so much!! And fresh vegetables delivered every Thursday and fried tofu in 3 flavors! Enjoy it!!! read more

great place. best in spokane love to get spices and fresh produce there. very nice service and people.

Who can argue a genuine Asian grocery mart in the middle of East Sprague in Spokane? Have you ever tried making some convoluted foodie recipe that asked for weird Asian products you cannot find in a normal American grocery store? Look no further--this market has it all. The fresh veg/fruit section looks really sketchy to these Anglo eyes but I've yet to be poisoned by any spoiled stuff. They've got an amazing selection of frozen Asian goodies, dumplings, lumpia all my Filipino treats I grew up tasting can be found here. I scored balút eggs here at one time--which is a foodie experience like no other. YouTube has plenty of balút tasting challenges to enjoy. This market has the largest selection of hard to find spices, sauces and Asian ingredients all within a reasonable price. This store is not for the squeamish. Chicken feet are found wrapped in cellophane and other odd pieces of meat/guts. They've got frozen durian fruit for those wanting to try their own version of Bizarre Foods. I scored deep fried crickets, and other weird treats during my last visit. Try it out, the staff are welcoming even of weird white people wandering their isles glaring at the shelves. read more

This is a pretty top notch Asian store for eastern Washington. It usually has everything I need to make traditional Lao food. The only thing that can be difficult is that the local restaurants usually buy out some staple items (papaya, Long beans, ect) on the fresh produce days which is on Friday. I also wished that they would continue to carry specific items like som moo regularly but it's hit or miss. Same with my favorite brand of coconut water. Overall they have a great selection and the staff is always so friendly. read more

Found this place from a Yelp search. We passed this address several times but couldn't find the actual store. The address is listed wrong but the store does exist! It's at: 2020 E Sprague Good variety of Asian foods. read more

Bay Market/Best Asian Market is a decent Asian store. Caters more to Chinese, Vietnamese, and Thai cuisine. I only say that because I didn't see that much Korean, Japanese, and Indian products. Anyways... it's pretty decent. There wasn't a deli inside. They had a small bulk rice selection. They're not as cheap as when I go to an Asian store in Tacoma but I think this store meets the needs of getting different kinds of sauces, spices, and dry noodles. Some stuff are either a dollar cheaper or a dollar more. read more

Price is not too expensive compare to the other Asian stores. It looks like old Asian grocery store not clean. Some products don't show the names and prices. Not helpful at all. When I asked about the ingredients I want to know the cashier got angry and said "No! I don't know!" Also I asked if I could take tape to see the ingredients (the bag was fold and not opening the package), she did not let me. She said "You have to buy it if you taking it!!!!!". It was impossible seeing it with tape on. read more

Good market. They had approximately 70% of the items I was looking for. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the products were fresh.

Been there twice. First time, I was impressed. Can't match what's being offered in the big city but had everything I wanted to satisfy cravings. Was happy with the wide range of choices in Asian veggies. Mostly fresh. Second time, not as impressed. Shelves were empty. Didn't see as many choices in inventory either. I guess I will see when I go back a third time. So far, a descent market! But check your receipt and prices. It doesn't appear they have the best tracking system. Both times, I see prices mislabeled on the shelves. Also had discrepancies at the register. read more

Easy to find with about 30 spaced parking lot. About 3 miles west of Costco on E Sprague. They have a great selection of packaged noodles 2nd only to Uyjamia in Seattle. Could use bigger bottles of Low Salt Soy sauce and seasoned Rice vinegar but the supply of noodles made my trip from Missoula worthwhile. I have enough noodles now to last me 6 months. read more

Awesome selection and honest. I left a bag right before store closing. I came back the next afternoon and they had the bag waiting for me in the fridge. Staff is very nice and helpful. Even with the language barrier they got me all of my hard to find or explain ingredients with a smile. Looking for something exotic like kafir lime leaves, just ask them. They keep them frozen in the walk-in that only the staff can access. read more

This is your go to place for anything asian!! Clean. Products are fresh and there are more than just 2 aisles of asian yummies. I shopped here for the first time a couple of weeks ago, but just after that first visit, I know this is where I am getting all my asian products from now on. A lot of Korean, Vietnamese, Thai, Japanese, etc etc.... products. Nice variety. read more

My favorite Asian market in Spokane. I've been going there for many years. I can't wait to go again and stock up on kitchen staples once things have mellowed out. Some of my favorite Japanese seasonings I can only get at this store unless I order them online. Still I prefer to support a local business. read more

I'm really happy I found this store. It's not the most amazing Asian market of all time or anything, but it's clean, and they carry quite a selection of Asian snacks and produce. We found lots of stuff that hadn't expired, which is a good sign! I'm glad I don't have to drive all the way to Seattle to find Asian goodies. read more

Lots of unique products! Looking to update your recipes and cooking style? Come here!!! Not the most organized environment, but take the time and peruse. Make sure to pick up a frozen dumpling of your choice and some Chinese broccoli (sauté or stir fry) DELICIOUS! read more

This Asian market is a decent store for Spokane. Our first experience was on July 4th and they were closing early. We arrived right when they were closing but they still allowed us in. Very nice family owned business. I'm definitely going back to shop for more Asian grocery. read more

Small, but friendly market. Everything you want and more, including fresh fruit and vegetables. (We even saw a durian fruit today!). Even if you want the less exotic, there are folks to help, even the customers. Enjoy! read more

I went to the market yesterday Dec 2,2018 , I was excited I got a lot things I wanted , but unfortunately I bought the Korean fresh noodle .and I opened it after I came home and felt not right, it has sour smell because I always get this noodle in LA and Seattle and I checked the expiration date it says 6/6/18 . That means it was expired half an year already . I hope they would change this , never happen in the future . read more

Kind of a small store and not always the best selection of what I am looking for but great prices and super friendly staff. I love coming here just for the produce. It is always super fresh! read more

I was thrilled to find this market. Lots of selection, good prices, friendly and helpful staff. I shop for products to use in my Chinese and Thai cooking at home. I have lived in the Northwest (Hayden Lake, Idaho) for 20+ years and just found this market a year ago. Previously we had to shop for these things at "99 Ranch Market" in CA on visits there and bring them back in our luggage (a pain in the neck). By the way, "Best Asian Market" and "Bay Oriental Market" are the same store. read more
