    Through three travails and even assails, Taiwanese Canadian mega-grocery T&T Supermarkets opening…read moreat Factoria, Trump's wacky tariffs on Chinese imports as high as 145%, and Seattle's periodic rousting of encampments and sweeping the unhoused onto Jackson, 12th Ave, and King Streets, like musical chairs where Chinatown never even had a chair, this enduring mom-and-pop Chinese grocery unfailingly imports old-world foodstuffs alongside locally-sourced fruits and vegetables, and meats and fish. We should commend surviving even one such struggle, which has decimated other businesses. The overall quality of their meats and their buyer's sourcing has grown better and more consistent over the years, executing a strategy available only to small wholesalers. Not only have this and other small ethnic grocers survived the profound impacts of Reagan dropping enforcement of the Robinson-Patman Act, they've executed remarkable niche marketing Jujitsu where other groceries have abandoned neighborhoods to become food deserts. Across King Street from similar Vietnamese-focused Lam's Seafood and other ethnic shops down King, 好好 retains its old-world, minimal packaging, small-store ambiance and charm. Seattle should honor such astute businesspeople and give kudos to employees who've worked here two decades going.

    I have dove into Uwajimaya on several occasions but my last time here I scoped out the store pretty…read morethoroughly. The options at this grocery store is overwhelming but it's kind of a treat also. There is lots of merchandise that you can't get at any run of the mill grocery store. This grocery store is mainly tuned into Asian shoppers and so you get a lot of merchandise that you don't see in just any everyday place. I heard coming here you can get all kinds of different flavors of Kit Kats and indeed I did find a lot of different ones. I purchased a flavor though that I haven't tried before which made it fun. It was a dark chocolate Kit Kat. But what I unexpectedly found was different Pocky flavors also. The sweet tasting pretzel stick I have had plenty of times with chocolate and strawberry flavors but I found one with fruit (mango) chunks that was a part of the flavor. It was good! Perhaps not my favorite but I'm glad I got to try something new! In addition to that there is something similar to Pocky called Pretz. This is a more savory version of Pocky. I found a toasted sugar flavor which I never came across before and that was good too! So it definitely was a hit coming back again. In addition to the grocery store itself at this location there is a connecting bookstore and a food court. So you could definitely spend a considerable amount of time here! I enjoy the bookstore but haven't tried the food court so that will be yet another visit for another time.

I remember the first time I went there in the early 1990s when I first moved to Seattle. I was blown away by the variety and how clean it was. Now, there are a lot more Asian grocery stores to shop at, but Waji's is still one of the cleanest and brightest places to shop at. Kudos to them for always trying to improve themselves. On a recent visit, my hubs and I got a bunch of green teas (sencha, kukicha, hojicha) and some sesame oil. They have a decent selection of green teas and we're happy they carry the Sugimoto Tea brand which is based in Seattle. I love the super cute Kinokuniya bookstore attached to the grocery store too. It's chock full of books, journals, calendars, stationery, kawaii stuff! Worth a visit just on its own. We wish their hot and prepared foods were better. One time we got a katsu bento plate that was just tasteless and terrible. The spam musubi wasn't even very good. Sigh. Wish their cookies, treats, baked goods section was better too. Taking one star off for all that but otherwise, still a pleasant place to shop at and there's a big parking lot with validation (up to 2 hours with a $20 or more purchase).

Unfortunately, this area is one of the rougher parts of Seattle. There are a lot of unhoused individuals nearby, and during our visit, there were people openly using drugs outside, which felt pretty unsettling while shopping. My mom and I have been coming here for the past 10 years, and it's honestly sad to see how much this area has declined over time. We were able to find parking and go inside, but the store itself feels very rundown and poorly maintained. It doesn't seem like there's been much effort put into renovating or updating the space. I wouldn't recommend buying fresh produce here, there were a lot of flies, and overall it didn't feel clean. The store feels sturdy but very old, and the overall ambiance is outdated. If you do stop by, I'd only recommend picking up canned or sealed items from brands you already trust. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this location unless you absolutely need something in an emergency. Lam's Seafood in Tukwila, on the other hand, is much better, it's bigger, cleaner, and feels a lot safer with no major issues in the surrounding area. Compared to that location, I would strongly avoid this one. It's disappointing to see how much it's changed over the years.

They have plenty of fruit and veggies out front and a smaller selection inside. The meat selection and frozen goods are present but not overly large. They've got a good amount of sauces and a lovely selection of coconut milk and coconut cream - my best half enjoys it so that's what I came for! Prices were very reasonable, as expected, and the gal at the counter was very helpful! They require a purchase of at least $10 to use cards so plan accordingly. Worth checking out if you're in the area.

Dong Hing is listed here on Yelp, but it is actually located at 1001 S Jackson St. which is about three blocks from Dong Sing. The weird thing about this, is that this store used to be called Dong Hing Market several years ago. Got that? I wonder why each store decided on such similar names because it is confusing to Yelpers. Dong Sing is actually not very big, but it is one market located in the heart of Chinatown/I-District. Produce is piled high on the street for your perusal. Inside the market you will find groceries like you would find at Dong Hing or Hau Hau or Hop Thanh, but they carry a smaller selection due to limited size. They do have a meat and fish counter in the back however. I have found the prices here to be slightly higher than a few of their I-District counterparts, but still better than at a traditional supermarket. Overall, Dong Sing Market is decent and the location makes it worth a visit.

    Yay! We have a T&T in Lynnwood. We became a fan of T&T when we stayed in Vancouver. Our main…read moreattraction was the hot food buffet station since shopping here always meant, yummy food at the end. My 5 year old really enjoys many of their hot food staples. The T&T in Lynnwood doesn't disappoint at all. While it is smaller than the Factoria location, we do not personally have any complaints. The place is not always packed like the Factoria location and that is a a relief. We primarily use the food & bakery sections, live fish, and frozen food sections. One can say they are a bit pricier in comparison to places like Ranch Market who have similar options but we T&T is closer to us than Ranch Market and so we prefer to go here as it is more convenient. They are special items during Boat Festival every year and we absolutely love the bun station during this time. This is also a great place to experiment with a lot of not usually found Asian alcohol in main stream supermarkets unless you are specially going to a specialty shop.

After a few bites of food, I tossed the rest because it was so unpleasant. Orange chicken, sweet and sour pork, ribs, what could go wrong? I don't know how it goes wrong, but the food is always gristly, dry and bland. The prices do not match the flavour. Prices are high, flavour is low. In addition, I have never had a staff person say hello or thank you, rarely even an acknowledgement that I am there. During my last visit I asked a gentleman if he knew if they had a particular item and he said "what we have in the store". Oh ok, thanks.
