Nikka Japanese Market is truly a gem in Goleta and the surrounding Santa Barbara area. A perfect,…read morecute shop featuring groceries and other Japanese goods, it is magical! I must mention their prices are also super fair and you can get a great deal on high quality items!! I am not from here, but I am a frequent visitor. I have always had a difficult time sourcing Asian grocery items until I discovered this spot. Their store holds so many surprises within its aisles. From dozens of varieties of soy sauce to specialty frozen foods and ceremonial fruits, Nikka has it all! I was looking for ingredients to make Lu Rou fan, a Taiwanese traditional braised pork, and was struggling to find the ingredients elsewhere. I came in looking for 2 types of soy sauce, shiitake mushrooms, and vegetables. They had it all! A very wonderful, kind woman assisted me and pointed me to exactly what I needed. We also had a sweet conversation about taiyaki, which I was also able to buy from here. I'm so sad I didn't get her name! If you are reading this, thank you for the help!! I have been back a few times since my first visit and each time I go it is awesome! If you are looking for specialty items or just want a new place to get groceries, stop here!!! :)

This cute little shop is always buzzing with the creation of their many specialty gift baskets.

With their location right in the heart of Old Town Goleta, and plenty of parking all around them, their staff is always helpful in making sure each gift basket is special. Thank you to Coruna for helping make some serious gift basket decisions today. With this being the busy Christmas season, their wait time for specialty gift baskets can be up to a week . . . so plenty of time right now. They also have some pre-made gift baskets ready to go, which is always appreciated.
