But on this occasion I…read morepicked up powdered spices I was out of Ginger Powder and man, I'm coming here for certain spices as they have an Indian Food area and the prices are banging as in LOW! Then I was passing by their Kimchi refrigerated cooler and I was like it's nearly all gone hmmm that means people must like it. So I grabbed a container! I usually get my Kimchi from Costco, but not anymore. After eating their Kimchee there's just no comparison. If you're into Asian and Indian foods I recommend coming here.

I have ventured into New Sagaya Midtown a handful of times in the last decade, usually on a mission…read morefor something that I cannot find at Carrs or Freddies. Today I was searching for Taiwanese rice vinegar. When I was about to give up, I found it in the vinegar isle, not the Asian sauce isle, like I would have suspected! New Sagaya Midtown has a fantastic selection of all things one might need to make some killer Asian or Mexican dishes and I love coming here for that. The main downside is that they are expensive, typically in the L48 stores like Uwajimaya and Hmart are cheaper than Safeway/QFC but that is simply not the case here. The store is relatively clean and well lit, there is no funky odor which is greatly appreciated. The cashier is always quick, but that's the extent of the service I have received at the store. I will keep coming back when I need to find a special ingredient to keep exploring the culinary world.

This was our one stop shop for hot and ready Hmong food since moving to Alaska. They did it right…read morewith their food and didn't disappoint. However, over this past weekend we were shocked to find that they are CLOSING!!!! They completely stopped selling hot food, and they were in the process of selling everything. Very disappointing to see this happen as we now have nowhere else to get our Hmong fix except for making it at home. Thanks to this family for giving us a taste of home in such an isolated state. It's just a shame that you guys couldn't have stuck around awhile longer. Best wishes to you all. Please, if someone knows of another Hmong store that sells legit hot Hmong food, let us know.

Review of New Sagaya City Market - Anchorage, Alaska…read more Five weeks ago, I moved from San Francisco to Anchorage, settling near the downtown area. One of my first missions was to find a coffee spot that felt like home--a place with not just great coffee, but genuine people behind the counter. After trying a handful of cafes, a neighbor suggested New Sagaya City Market, just two blocks from my house. What a win. The market itself offers high-end, quality products. Yes, prices are a bit higher than what you'd find at Walmart or Target, but coming from San Francisco, I was prepared for that. What truly sets this place apart, though, isn't just the products--it's the people. From the very beginning, the baristas here have shown me the most consistent and heartfelt customer service I've experienced since moving to Anchorage. They don't just serve coffee; they connect with you, listen to your stories, and make you feel like part of the community. Today was a perfect example. I slipped in the parking lot (rookie mistake--no spikes on my shoes for the icy ground). After two kind gentlemen helped me up, I walked inside with my spilled coffee. Annie, a new barista I hadn't met before, immediately offered me a fresh cup with such kindness and care. That small gesture meant so much--it wasn't just about the coffee, it was about feeling seen and supported. I also want to shout out Monica and Shea, who I met when I first arrived five weeks ago. They've been consistently amazing--funny, charming, and genuinely interested in conversations about life, community, and even my adventures back in San Francisco. Every time I come in, I leave feeling lighter, happier, and more connected. Thank you, Annie, Monica, and Shea, for making New Sagaya City Market my go-to coffee spot. You've given me more than great coffee--you've given me a sense of belonging in a new city. --- Would you like me to make this version short and punchy for Google/Yelp reviews, or keep it longer and more storytelling-focused for something like a blog or social post?

While the store is pricey, it is worth a visit for the items you can't get anywhere else and excellent customer service.

I was a little disappointed the last time I came in as I wanted just half of the Asian squash and I asked if they could half it and they said no. I know they do it because I heard the owner offer to cut it for someone during their live stream earlier that day but they did not do it for me when I asked. The best pro of this place imo!They have a delicious bahn mi! I can't stop thinking about it! Anyways, I only really shop here if I am looking for something specific like blue crab but other than that I am glad they have fresh shipment of veggies and Asian fruits that come in.

Glad they are open so I don't have to spend my free time thinking what I am going to make for dinner! (Here's a picture of a months supply of dinners for $225)
