Back in April 2020, when COVID-19 restrictions had just taken hold in America, my wife walked from…read moreour home in Atlantic Station to nearby Wagaya Japanese restaurant to pick up takeout for dinner. Due to the pandemic, indoor dining at restaurants was closed. On her way home, she noticed that sister restaurant Chirori next door (https://www.yelp.com/biz/chirori-yakitori-and-kushikatsu-atlanta) had converted into a Japanese grocery store: https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/wagaya-japanese-groceries-atlanta-2?select=OJdGMHY4IZsMeQWEhGzmsw&userid=j14WgRoU_-2ZE1aw1dXrJg. She stopped in, ran into owner/acquaintance Takashi Otsuka, and purchased some items. Well into its fourth year in business, Wagaya Grocery Store is still kicking. I believe this store was a direct result of the pandemic. I thought its existence might be temporary; for example, it would only be around until restrictions were lifted and dine-in was back in full force. Well, it looks like this store is here to stay. A while back, it moved into a hidden space downstairs, on the same level as Trio Custom Clothiers: https://www.yelp.com/biz/trio-custom-clothiers-atlanta-5. As a regular customer at all of these businesses for many years now, I remember when this space used to be storage for Trio and/or other businesses at this property (if I recall correctly) as well as, at one point, a dance studio - the Burke Connolly Academy of Irish Dance. I highly recommend Trio for custom suits and tuxes, by the way. This is a great, fun little store for Japanese and other Asian food and drink. It's convenient for those living/working in Atlantic Station, Home Park, and Georgia Tech, as well as the wider Midtown and Westside neighborhoods. These parts of Atlanta are Japanese/Asian grocery deserts. Wagaya Grocery Store can save you a trip to Tomato Japanese Grocery Store in Marietta or Norcross, or H Mart or Buford Highway Farmers Market in Doraville. This is nowhere near the size of those stores and the prices are understandably a bit higher, but this place still has plenty to offer and it works in a pinch. For example, I've come here for their house brand kimchi as opposed to driving to Costco or H Mart. It's good. It was $5.49 per pound last time I bought it, with a small container typically costing less than $5. They have different kinds too. My wife and I have purchased an assortment of items here including Alfort Mini Chocolates, Imuraya Frozen Wafer Sandwiches in different flavors (e.g., matcha, strawberry), Kracie Popin' Cookin' Tanoshii Sushi DIY candy for kids (we got those for my nieces), bags of Kit Kat wafers in unique flavors (e.g., milk tea, melon; $13.99 each), and soy milk daifukumochi ($2.49 each). I've also gotten various drinks here, from Pocari Sweat sports drinks ($3.99 per bottle) and Kimono brand sparkling Yuzu ($4.49 per bottle) to Calpico in different flavors (e.g., melon; $3.99 per bottle) and Korean Binggrae Banana-flavored boxed milk drinks ($1.99 each). Overall, there's a very nice variety of Japanese snacks, candy, drinks, condiments, frozen treats, etc. I will say this is not the best place to buy some products, like drinks and ramen, in bulk since most of what they sell is in singles and not in packs/boxes. It's less economic. However, this place is perfect for things like condiments (e.g., Kewpie mayo, Korean BBQ sauce, ponzu sauce) and special produce (e.g., certain types of mushrooms and greens, fresh local yuzu $3.99 each). In addition to produce, they have everything you need to make basic sushi including fresh raw fish, roe (masago and ikura), and pickled ginger and wasabi; ingredients for nabemono, like shabu-shabu and sukiyaki (Japanese hot pot), including thin-sliced beef brisket ($18.50 per pound), ribeye ($22.50 per pound), and pork belly ($17.50 per pound); and even different types of broth -- ramen shoyu, udon/soba, spicy curry. Also, they have a fridge with a decent selection of sake and wine which, for some reason, must be ordered using a phone by scanning a QR code on the fridge door. The beer you can buy same as everything else. The store has a cute, amusing atmosphere to it, befitting of Japanese culture. Everything from the colorful canned drinks with anime characters on them to details like little foldable instructions on "How to Cook Okonomiyaki" just really add charm to the place. Service is excellent from manager Chi to employee Tim. They're really friendly. I was curious about the demand in this area for this type of store and they told me they really had to fine-tune the inventory levels so they didn't have a lot of product expiring on them. I believe it. Like some things I've had to do at my job, it sounds like more of an art than a science. Chi told me she goes to Georgia Tech regularly to sell groceries from Wagaya Grocery Store too, on certain days near the Student Center. The neighborhood is lucky to have this place.

It's located in a shopping plaza on Memorial Drive near I-20. I was informed that they've only been open for about 3 months. The store was clean and very organized. They had a wide variety of sauces, some produce, snacks, noodles, teas, instant coffee etc. I came in for one item and walked out with six, SMH. While they don't offer the vast variety of their counterparts (ie H Mart), they have a great selection of Asian groceries. The staff that I encountered were really friendly.

There's a variety of fillings - beans, jellies, cornflakes, ice cream but only a little bit of each. Considering all the beans and jellies are canned I felt like the value wasn't completely there. It was mostly sweet milk that was a bit too sweet for me. I am glad I got to try it though!

How do you determine when a person cooks their meat? They should do better at making sure their meats are consumable regardless of when you cook them. I will not go back and they just lost a customer. No one has money to waste on food you cannot eat. YUCK
