    Front of the store. You just have to take the stairs

    Ooooo this place is sneaky! I would have never known about this place until my neighbor told me about this place. They sell all Japanese groceries and gifts. My daughter loves trying snacks from different countries and sometimes going to the Asian market doesn't cut it. The pricing here is just a little bit less than some Asian markets as well for their Japanese items which is good. It's not by the dollars but like $.50 but that's nice. We also went here to look at their gift shop because I love Japanese dinnerware/cookware and they have things of that nature there as well. The kid items like toys are a little pricey though but do your own comparing to see if it's worth getting. Hope this review helps! Great place to go! I'm not Japanese but the staff that works there was super nice to me!

    Yes! That's spam.

    You can do your grocery of delicious Asian products, tons of snacks and eat a meal when you're done. It's very clean and they're pleasant. I enjoy there Onigiri, Sake selection and delicious pastry and bread. The frozen aisle is full of convenience items. Dumplings. Shu Mai. Red bean ice cream. Bags of edamame. Even a brief scouting trip will send you home with some great frozen items and inspire you to return. Located on the top level of a shopping center; be prepared for a few steps or drive and park around the back.

    One of two long aisles of Japanese goodies!

    How have I missed this cute Japanese Market and I've lived in the area for a decade!? It started with my craving for onigiri which I started my search on Yelp and this market popped up. I usually buy them at Tea Doh up the street. I'm so glad I stopped here, I ended up leaving with a few yummy bento boxes and onigiris! I couldn't wait so I'm eating it in my car and typing this review with my sticky fingers from the bits of loose rice dropping as I stuff these onigiris in my mouth! Get in my belly! Btw, if you park on the ground level by Temari Sushi you will need to walk up some stairs just by the dumpsters to get to the entrance of the market. You're better off parking in the back of the building at the very end of the plaza to get in. I noticed that the door on the balcony level is not open. Watched customers walk all the way down the balcony to find out that door is locked.

    Fantastic little Japanese grocer with yummy desserts, drinks and snacks! I saw a stack of bento boxes, turned around and then there was 1 left! That was enough to convince me. Grabbed an onigiri bento and a salmon onigiri. Both were very delicious and different from each other. The individual packaged salmon onigiri had salmon in it while the onigiri bento had bits of salmon mixed in with the rice. I think I would go with the individually wrapped onigiri salmon when I pick them up again.

    Does this place carry bento/lunch grab and go style everyday?

    Do they have Japanese instant ramen?

    Yes they do.

    Do they possibly have egg salad sandwiches or sweet cream rolls or steamed buns?

    I'm not sure about the sandwiches. I saw chocolate eclairs (which we purchased), steak buns in the frozen section and cream puffs. I think they may have had sandwiches.

My favorite part about my Marufuji is the restaurant in the back. Some of the best cuisine I've had in years. I always order a Katsudon, a bowl of miso Ramen and a large curry with rice. I can't help but grab a couple onigiri while im at it. I've ordered takeout several times and I've enjoyed every order. I'll definitely be going back

Marufuji does carry a lot of Japanese imported items you cannot find at other stores in the area, and I think it's a great addition to Tysons. All of the employees are so friendly too, I love stopping by just to browse the new stuff they get in every once in awhile. It absolutely is pricey, since it's a very small specialty grocery store. The produce they carry is fresh, but the markup is quite high. You're likely not going to come here for your regular weekday grocery haul. When I shop here I always make sure I'm shopping deals/sales, otherwise I come here for the meat. They have the best quality A5 wagyu and kurobuta pork. Again it's pricey, but even full price it's worth it for the insane marbling. I did manage to catch their wagyu on a sale where it was $80/lb which was a pretty cool find. I'm also personally a sucker for the gachapon machines at the front of the store (which rotate semi-regularly).

The store is pretty good quality, otherwise I wouldn't be going a few hours out of my way to shop here. Things are tidy, neat, organized and lots of great selection for such simple things as soy-sauce, especially if you are a connoisseur, which one becomes if you are Asian and into cooking. Being a vegetarian, there are lots of choices in fresh veggies and fruits, and great Asian choices. There are also aisles for tea, noodles, and cookware. My problem is that their checkout system is not sufficient. I cannot help noticing that in DC Metro all these Asian stores hire a high proportion of Latinos. They work at the counter and in the back and number more than the Asian workers. Having come from an Asian small grocery, everyone my parents hired were Asian. They offered pay to Asian college students. They know that Asian-Americans would like to work, and can do at least as good a job in sorting, processing, cashiering. My mom was a very good cashier when she helped out. They can stand the work for long hours just like in China. But here, they are NOT giving enough of those kinds of opportunities to Asian-Americans, even all the college students in UM or MCC who would also love a PT job. Specifically, I became angry because a Latino couple stood behind me and was bum-rushing me at the counter. They tried to cut in front of me, but I pointed out my place in the line. I had just as small a basket of items as they did, so they should have been willing to yield, but they were not. When it came to putting things in my shopping bag to take out, the Latina cashier barely helped me. Then I had to pay, but the Latino couple was trying to crowd me out, since i like to stand right in front of the register to receive my change, which I have a right to. Instead they objected to my wanting to stand at the counter table. Then when I was rather slow putting things away, they sort of made a jeering comment about it. This really caused me to blow my top. How many times do I come to a Latino grocery store and am very patient and pleasant? How many times do I put up when the fellow shoppers refer to me as "China" and the cashier is a tiny bit edgy? They never hire Asian Americans to work at any Latino grocery stores that I know about! Never! I never see them cooking in the back, doing packing work, or cashiering! As for Indian grocery stores, it is also totally out of the question! They also proudly hire all of their own to pack, sort, cook, bake, their Indian cuisine! Asian-American businesses cannot even have the dignity of hiring all Asian workers many of who would love to work. Instead, they have to cater to corporate America and hire just so many Latino and black workers for their stores, and whether this is due to DEI is perplexing. Again, I never see that Latino/Black grocery stores are hiring any Asian American workers. That simply is not required so it does not happen! So these corporate pressures push Asian Americans who are more average students and from the lower-income towards crime and towards the underworld. They even have to work at nail-salons where they have to slavishly cater to the whims of women pretending to be mistresses and subject to all manners of abuse. From there they can fall victims of cancer, and rape, and much worse as they cater to the whims of disgusting creatures hoping for their moral downfall. This would be less if Asian Americans stood up for themselves by having all-Asian businesses like they do on the West coast, and where the authorities still respect and honor family businesses and allow them to hire as many of their own kind as they wish, because I absolutely refuse to believe that Asian Americans young or old would NOT want to work at these Asian supermarkets if they were given a chance! Just look at all those Asian housewives shopping here! They are so quick and grabby and focused that they just swim through the cashier line and never mind anything. They certainly would not mind some jeering by a few mouthy other minorities! Failing this, then the other option for older disabled Asian-Americans being bum-rushed and treated to Spanish conversation at this store at the check-out counter, is to PLEASE CONSIDER PUTTING IN SELF-CHECKOUT COUNTERS. I pointed this out to a manager, but he said all he can do is report any problems with checkout to the owner. CVS, Target, Walmart, and many other stores have gone Self-Checkout and it is to help accommodate shoppers since these self-checkout offer more space and a bit more time as well. There is nobody standing right behind you crowding in on you and talking up to the cashier. They can go to almost any other store in this region anyway and find a few Latino grocery stores to shop and play bum-rush at the checkout.

The staff were very friendly, and cheerfully assisted me with some of the pastries we purchased.
