    Local market with fresh seafood and meat and produce. They carry unique Asian, Caribbean and African spices, condiments and products. Parking can be difficult when you go during peak times. Prices are high and low in comparison to 99 Ranch and Seafood City/Fresc Catch. I was excited to try the beef patties, not the best I've had as I enjoyed them in Jamaica. The dough is dry and the filling could be "juicier." Still a good place that serves the community when you need items.

    I go there for the Mojara fish. You buy they fry. It can get busy on the weekends but it's okay plenty of parking in the back.

    My mother's family is from Hawaii so I grew up eating food from the islands. I happen to love (and make a mean) Lau Lau. To do this you need a lot of fresh taro leaves. This is where Dat Moi comes into the picture. This is the only thing I have ever purchased there as it is very hard to source this main ingredient for the dish. Dat Moi has never disappointed me with their supply. The taro is VERY fresh and all of the family loves the Lau Lau that comes from them. The hard to find produce from many cultures can be found here as I have seen many different ethnicities shopping there every time I go.

    Never knew about this place until now. Lots of ethnic stuff coming from Asia with several tea options, the Caribe with many seasonings we've never tried, and some from South America like instant coffee. Good option to get fresh oysters, clams and fish. Parking is tight, this place is the size of a convenience store so parking can be a hassle. We enjoy seeing new products and ideas from different countries and ethnic backgrounds. Service is good too, as we were walking without a basket or anything a lady came to offer me one as my hands started to get full. Cashier were nice too. We're definitely coming back for more !

    This store is my go-to for fresh/frozen meat, seafood, produce! Parking is plenty full and cashiers are knowledgeable and very helpful especially when I pick my Balut and they always come up to me and assist me in picking the best ones in their trays of Balut for Boiling I love how they're on top of making sure everyone are served in the meat/seafood area by following their systematic queue! The store is not as big as the usual asian market that's why it's easier for me to find the products i am looking. gotta love the a store where it's diverse with friendly atmosphere. I Highly Recommend this store

    Patties?!

    What a great selection on Vietnamese, Asian, and Caribbean food stuff. Parking in the back can be tight on the weekends. Avoid the crowd and go during the week around noon.

    King Crab!

    Dat Moi has everything you need from fish, beef, pork, chicken, vegetables, exotic seasonings, and more. Service was very good and punctual. The prices were very reasonable, I got 5lbs of snow crab for about $80 along with 3lbs of shrimp for under $20. They have a lot of items that you won't find in normal grocery stores especially in LA so if you from out of town or just want to experience a lil piece of Caribbean culture you got to stop by Dat Mou

They have a food court, a bakery that looked ridiculously good, and a huge grocery selection. I kept finding sauces and products I hadn't seen at other Japanese markets. But the prepared-food section was what really got me. Everything looked incredibly fresh. The onigiri alone had me wanting to start grabbing things even though I had literally just eaten. I basically walked around realizing I need to come back hungry because there's way too much here that I want to try. Definitely one of those markets I could accidentally spend way too much time in. One thing I would not lock yet: the Japanese market's name. From your description I know exactly which experience you're talking about, but I don't want to guess the business name and attach the review to the wrong place. Also, before we redo Big Dan's, I'd check whether you already reviewed it since you think you may have.

It's a massive two story building in Gardena with groceries and a conveyor belt sushi sit-down restaurant on the second floor. They have a large parking lot that is usually fine but can get wild on the weekends as it wraps around the building - instead of just being a huge open lot or garage. They carry many Hawaiian items, in addition to Japanese products from eats to skincare. Their grab & go sandos are pretty good - both the pork katsu sando and the egg salad sandwiches are tasty. They have a hot buffet so you can try up to 20 different items for a by the pound price. The Gindaco counter in the food section has takyoyaki (fried octopus balls) which are popular here.

Although they are playing some good music. Service was extremely lacking. We purchased our beers which was separated from the food. I guess that makes some sort of sense, but the food service needs help. We were standing next to a couple who had already ordered and had been there for a bit when a large white man walked from out of the back and asked our neighbors if they needed help. They said they were helped already and he said okay and walked away. I laughed and said, loudly, we need help. Without a word or backward glance he walked into the back. Understand we were standing right next to them and we look nothing alike. We joked that he probably thought we were related. Mind you we're, my wife and I, are quite a few shades darker than our fellow patrons. We didn't let it ruin our day. We were finally helped since there were only 4 of us in line alm together. We ordered lobster lovers bucket, clam Chowder and fried calamari. The fried calamari and Chowder were outstanding. I woukd order that again any day. Unfortunately the seasoning in the bucket were too overpowering. We could barely taste the sausage and the shrimp. Even the corn flavor was off. And the lobster...... one was tough and rubbery and the other tough and chewy. This was supposed to be mane lobster but it was over cooked. I will be going back but not for the lobster. It was one of the highest priced items and it disappointed us. Last thing. The bathrooms are in poor shape. If your a germafob just make sure you take a lotn lot of sanitizer

Since they're usually rushing, ask for extra containers or anything else while you have their attention. They also have ready to eat items like poke.
