    I bought 7.99/lbs star apple. That's terrible. Three star apples were all moldy. When cut, they smelled rancid and tasted sour.

    My review was deemed not P.C so it was gone, here's a simple review, you'll find the cheapest price of all supermarkets, pomelos 49c each, oranges so cheap but I have 4 Sunkist orange trees in my backyard.

    How great are the prices for produce here? They have fresh veggies and fruits at really low prices compared to where I live. I had fun walking all around the many aisles and seeing what they have to offer, which is lots. Tons of sardines, Vietnamese spices, fish, different Aloe juices than I'm used to seeing at the Korean and Japanese supermarkets, and really tons of other merchandise. SS is in the same plaza as Advance Beauty College. When I entered from a side entrance, it didn't smell that great. As I advanced into the store, things were a lot better. It's not bad, you can handle it. When I went, checkout was quick. I've posted pictures of sections of the store under the listing. I picked up fresh tomatoes and Persian cucumbers for my first visit. I'm sure I'll swing by again if I'm in this area.

    Remind me not to go to OC's Little Saigon on a weekend, a holiday, and especially around Chinese New Years/Tet. We tried to go to a different, larger Asian supermarket, part of a strip mall whose parking lot entrance was off Bolsa Ave. Crazy! The traffic moved 2 feet in an hour. And you can already imagine the venomous epithets that fell from my mouth every time an SUV with no visible driver cut in front of me. That vehicle, dear Yelper, was probably 'manned' by a tiny Asian lady elevated by a pillow so she could peek through the openings in her steering wheel. Happened more than once today. Once Mr. B and I got in said parking lot, it was more of the same. Never did find a parking spot after waiting another 30 minutes. Parking was so premium, I suspect people hoarded their precious parking spots and walked home. We gave up. Yelp to the rescue, we were guided to a market that was more off the beaten path. That would be here, Saigon Market. Plenty of parking, less crowded, same clientele, and grungy exterior. Ahhhhh.....authentic. We were there to find a small cleaver for Mr. B. That was all. An hour later, we came out with $64 of fresh veggies, Asian flavored soup bases, bean thread noodles, raw peanuts, cute dishware, etcetera, etcetera. Oh yes, and we did remember to get the the knife. Happily one of our better non-dementia days. Cool store! Big....no....huge! Fascinating stock. Beautiful produce. A large selection of fresh-off-the-boat fish, molluscs and crustaceans in large bins of ice, aquariums, or pools. Why is that so hard to find in the big IE? So, here is my biggest complaint, and my simple-minded work around plan: I had a hard time finding employees who understood English. They would point when I asked for sesame seeds, but it turns out they were pointing at the cashiers (probably because they did speak English) but who were busy with their own jobs. My Plan: Allow yourself time. Wander methodically, amuse yourself reading labels, people watch, grab what they grab, and make sure you stop and smell the .......(fill in the blank, and it's not roses). You'll eventually find what you need, and probably lots more. It makes for an interesting day, and could lead to a healthy inspiration for dinner at bargain prices.

    Long awaited review as I have been coming here for decades. There are so many markets all over…read moreLittle Saigon, however, I keep gravitating here. Seems to me, it is less crowded than other markets. (If I can avoid crowds, I will). It was Tet New Year season and I needed to get a few ingredients for some dishes I planned to cook. My first priority was the fresh oxtail in the meat department. I have gone to many markets for this cut and it seems this is the best place for a ~2 pound tray of mixed size tails. The fat is all trimmed off, as opposed to other markets that leave a fat layer behind that you are paying for. It also depends on if you prefer leaner tails. Next, the produce section. I picked up some cailan (Chinese broccoli). For the most part, the Asian veggies are pretty fresh - since there is a higher turnover rate of Asian veggies in this area. It was good on this day. So many varieties of green veggies, I love it! The fruit section is also pretty impressive. Papayas, guanabana, dragon fruit, pommelo, tangerines, korean pear, manzano bananas,...Not your ordinary apples and oranges. Dry goods include a plethora of rice, including Thai sweet rice, Japanese rice (perfect for sushi rice), red rice (known for high fiber and low glycemic index)... Who likes Chinese Style sausage? Me! It is called Lap Xuong, in Vietnamese. I love making Thai sweet rice and serve with thinly sliced Lap Xuong - my mom fed us kids this often! And yes, they have a good supply of this here, so stock up, it will last forever in the pantry. Vietnam is the world's second largest coffee producer. You will see the crazy amount of coffee products sold here, for example, Vinacafe. Most are packed as individual serving packets which includes cream and sugar. Too convenient for consumption! Also perfect to have in your pantry. You shall be impressed with the chili aisle. Sambal of all kinds. You can make an awesome pot of chili with this heat! Lots of Lunar New Year items too. I am sure there are still some left for purchase if you didn't have a chance to pick some up yet. They do have a liquor department too. Asians can drink iykyk. If you do, please don't drink and drive. Parking is ok, if you go shopping off peak hours. Market is on Beach Boulevard and it could get pretty busy so plan wisely. So enjoy your visit. It is always fun to discover a new product and try something you have never eaten before!

I love the fresh peeled garlic…read moreand the price of fresh ginger is incredibly reasonable (compared to the regular grocery stores) They also have a great selection of Asian condiments, plenty of frozen seafood (mainly crustaceans), fresh butcher-style meats (beef and pork) I prefer not to buy chicken or fish from the fresh butcher though as I've had bad experiences for both. The only negative is the employees are not friendly. When you ask an employee if they have a certain item, COMPLETE WITH PHOTO IN HAND, I've had them look the other way as if they don't speak English or they say "NO" without even looking at your photo. Fortunately, this is not always the case, but I've had that more than once. Some are helpful, but none are very friendly or overly accommodating. They also have the "fish fry" area if you'd into that. I've done it a few times when I can find fresh fish that meets my liking and it does turn out delicious and, of course, beats cooking it yourself. Overall, I'm fine here and the prices are "good"....

    Stopped by Shun Fat to pick up some groceries while getting ingredients ready for dinner, and…read moreoverall found some pretty solid deals. For meat, I grabbed ground beef, pork neck (currently on sale for $1.99/lb), and chicken breast. Prices were definitely reasonable. For produce, quite a few items were cheaper than H Mart, including enoki mushrooms, Japanese yam, daikon, shiitake mushrooms, tofu, and carrots. That said, the Japanese yam didn't look very fresh this time, so I ended up skipping it and buying it at H Mart instead, even though it was a bit more expensive. Some items were priced about the same as H Mart, like napa cabbage ($0.99/lb), onions ($0.39/lb), and bean sprouts ($0.99 per pack). One change I noticed is that cucumbers are now pre-packaged instead of being sold loose, so you can't pick them individually anymore. They're also slightly more expensive than H Mart now. They also had a great deal on Driscoll's strawberries, $0.99 for a 1 lb box, which is definitely worth picking up. Overall, still a great spot for affordable grocery shopping, especially if you're cooking at home and want to save a bit here and there. (visited on 3/31/2026)

It's a big supermarket with a wide selection of Asian groceries, fresh produce, and especially seafood. I usually come here to buy lobster and crab when they go on sale, since the prices are pretty good compared to other places. I don't really come here often though, mainly because of the strong fishy smell inside the store. Every time I leave, I feel like the smell sticks to my clothes, which I don't really like. Also, it can get very busy and the checkout lines are usually long. The staff at the front can also be a bit hit or miss in terms of friendliness. Parking can also be a bit difficult sometimes since this whole area has a lot of different businesses, so it gets crowded pretty easily. Overall, it's still a convenient place for good seafood deals and Asian groceries, but I mostly just come when there's a sale on lobster or crab.

We were looking for something that to eat late Sunday and her stall was opened and at first we were ready to leave because no one was around. We wanted pad Thai which was a stall next to her but they were closed. So we asked what she had. She was polite and honest saying she only had the Pho and the green curry. She was honest telling us her pho doesn't sell well and it's might be old but the curry is fresh. My mom if was hungry so we bought two bowls of curry one beef for myself and the shrimp for my wife. Both bowls were huge and my wife ate the hole thing with the white rice that came with it. The ingredients was high with strips of bamboos and round eggplants in a smooth creamy sauce being that was not too spicy. She gave chili oil to adjust for your taste. I couldn't believe it was 12 bucks a bowl including 2 bowls of jasmine rice. That is incredibly cheap and Ita better than any Thai restaurants in OC. She said she used to cook st a Thai restaurant in Irvine before opening this place. The next day we ordered her three rib bone pho because of his fever and he enjoyed it but said it was fine nothing special but he finished the broth and I had the Tom yum soup. The broth was fresh Abe good but it's on my sweeter side with a little fish sauce then it was fine. Yesterday, we ordered the yellow curry which has a creamy sauce containing onions, potatoes and carrots and slices of beef. My son orders three curry which is a little more spicy. This comes with sweet peppers, string beans and onions with beef and finished it so fast. He usually doesn't like Thai food except for Pad Thai. Definitely will be eating curry at least once a week. All three curries have a slightly different taste. Next time I'll hav r pictures.

I noticed other customers approaching staff directly for assistance, so I eventually did the same. The employee behind the counter selected four beautiful salmon steaks for me. However, while packaging them, the bag split open and all four steaks fell onto the floor. The employee quickly picked them up and took them back behind the counter. It appeared that he attempted to rinse them off and package them to sell to me anyway. When he brought them back, I asked, "Didn't those salmon steaks just hit the floor? Could you please get me four new ones?" His response, said quietly under his breath, was, "Oh, you saw that." He then selected four replacement steaks, weighed them, and labeled them for purchase. I was very disappointed that anyone would attempt to sell food that had fallen on the floor. That experience left a very negative impression and made me question the seafood department's food handling practices. The rest of my shopping experience was fine, and the highlight of my visit was one of the restaurants inside the store--a boba and milk tea shop. The service there was excellent, and I had one of the best yogurt and pumpkin milk teas I've ever tasted. That positive experience is the reason I'm giving three stars instead of one. I'll likely avoid purchasing seafood here in the future, but I would definitely return to visit the shops and restaurants inside the store.
