In Koreatown, that…read moreshouldn't be an issue but when your craving something to grab and go, the options are quite limited. I have been eyeing Yama for quite a while and this past Monday, I was able to find the time to go! Yama Sushi Marketplace reminds of stepping into a Japanese Grocery store. Snacks lined the center of the store, while hot food, pre-packed sushi line the wall. There is also a traditional counter on the right for sashimi and fresh fish cuts. Let's talk food, I got some assorted Nigiri ($11), Salmon Nigiri ($11), some 2 packs of Chicken Yakitori 2 Skewers per pack ($4/pack), tea, and soda. It all came out to $40. Though I don't normally like to pay that much for lunch, I didn't regret it one bit. The sushi tasted so good and fresh, while the skewers were hot and meat tender. Paired with the soda it make my lunch such a nice treat. Parking can be found for free in the facility located in the back and underground. When I visited, there was a lot of parking so no issues there. If you would like to eat there, there are some small tables set up outside for you to enjoy your food. I will definitely come back again as they do have bento options, which after this last visit makes me want to be a regular. Cheers!

They're popular for their fried fish. While the Vietnamese selection is smaller than other Vietnamese grocery stores, it had everything my mom needed (which is often the herbs). The prices were also fair. I am glad this market exists so I don't have to drive as far to Westminster area to get my Vietnamese essentials. The bad: It's not the neatest looking market inside. It could updated, more modern and cleaner. The interesting: They fry the fish for free for you up until 10 minutes before closing time.

Seafood City Market…read more This is a review for my experience shopping at Seafood City Market in Carson, CA. WORDS TO DESCRIBE: Seafood City Homey, bustling, lively, community driven, diverse, colorful, full in flavor -It is a market specializing in Filipino/Asian products. It carries fresh produce, meat/seafood, and your favorite ingredients needed to create your Filipino family dishes. There is a Grill City restaurant in the store, where you can select your meats and sides, as well as tables and chairs to dine in there. PRODUCTS; They have all of your Filipino family fiesta needs in the store. We often go there to get fish-tilapia and have it fried. It does take awhile, but it's worth it. My favorite items to purchase are their vegetables, as well as my favorite snacks. My go to snacks: SkyFlakes: buttery, simple crackers...it's basically the Filipino version of a Ritz Cracker Mang Tomas Sauce: Our all purpose sauce for meats Banana Ketchup Shrimp Chips Kopiko coffee candy BEER: Filipino beer: San Miguel or Red Horse All in all I enjoy going to Seafood City! I come here for all my grocery needs! I also love that there is a Jollibee and Filipino bakeries adjacent to the store! Go shopping and enjoy the taste of the Philippines at Seafood City! Mabuhay!

3rd time's a charm, and by "charm," I mean I finally confirmed that the problem was never me…read more The first time I purchased king crab from this market, I bought two bags at $175 each. When we cracked the legs open, there was a thick, rubbery, shell-like layer wrapped around the meat. We assumed we had overcooked it, accepted our $350 lesson, and took it on the chin. Against my better judgment, I returned and spent nearly $385 on 2 five-pound bags of king crab and a bag of shrimp. The shrimp were fine. The crab? Same problem. Initially, I steamed a few legs for about 10 minutes and thought, "Okay, maybe I overcooked it again." Thankfully, I had only removed what I planned to eat and kept the remaining legs frozen. Today, I decided to test that theory. I removed three legs, steamed them for 5 minutes.... Literally set my timer for 5 minutes and what do you know, same exact result. As the pictures show, this is not the crab's normal thin membrane. The hard outer shell literally separates from a second, soft shell underneath it, leaving very little edible meat. I paid for king crab, not an expensive scavenger hunt for actual crab meat. At these prices, customers should not be sold poor quality, double-shelled crab legs. After spending more than $700 here across 2 visits and having the same issue each time, I'm officially done conducting experiments. This market has had multiple opportunities, and unfortunately, the crab failed every time. 3rd time's a charm because there definitely won't be a 4th

I went solo, with my dog (allowed at the patio venue). I was the only singleton. Although the area might appear to be crowded with tourists, it attracts locals. People of all backgrounds are there and feel welcome. All of that is complimentary. You feel good eating fresh food outdoors surrounded by folks enjoying life. I had fried oysters. I inquired. The clams are strips, as indicated, not bellies. Given those choices, I prefer oysters. I also had the garlic bread. That was more mild than I prefer; I'd like to reek (not everyone, including my wife, appreciates that). I also had a big beer. That is a separate line. I'd go back. I'd bring my wife.

The oysters were a little pricey, not gonna lie, but they were definitely worth it. Everything tasted super fresh and you really can't beat sitting by the water eating fresh seafood. Overall, we had a great experience and I would definitely come back. Just remember: come hungry and COME EARLY!

I found parking in the front but learned after my visit that there is additional parking in the rear--using that option next time. I ordered the Thai Tea Matcha and the Peach Cobbler Matcha, both iced with oat milk--both tasty! The flavors were nuanced especially the spices in the peach cobbler syrup. Not over sweet--major plus. The matcha was prominent and was vibrant in color. First time having Thai Tea with matcha and it works! The earthiness from the matcha brings out the tea flavor, IMO. I highly recommend! The menu features a variety of signature drinks, including Rosemary Fig and Blueberry Chai. Additionally, they offer cold brew, drip coffee and espresso-based drinks. Drinks might be in a rotation so there is something new to try to every week. The place is spacious, the decor is inviting and complimentary Wi-FI is available. I also purchased a shirt and my total came to $78, including tax and tip. I plan to return! Support local and shop small!

I tried their Blueberry Matcha and their Peach Cobbler - Both were not too sweet, and it really tasted like I was drinking a blended peach cobbler pie and blended blueberries. I think the magic is in how the owner makes the syrup - It tastes authentic to what the name is. I think this is the best flavored matcha drinks in the South Bay. It doesn't have a manufactured taste to it, I swear the syrups are home made LOL. I love the atmosphere inside - Hanging plants, artwork on the walls, good vibes all around. There's a lounge in the back but I didn't check it out. Service was fast and friendly. Will be a repeat customer!
