There was huge parking lot in front of the store. Inside was well lit. All sections had good inventory. Prices of the items were good, plenty of sale were all around the store. I went to the water section where they had several good options. I got one of the gallon bottles. Then I went to the flower section where most of the flowers were on super sale since they were only few days from going bad. I checked out quickly using the self checkout kiosk.

They weren't super busy at the time, but most of their sushi rolls from the frig were low in quantity. I love salmon so I went with the Salmon Avocado Roll. I also brought the Salmon Roll (more salmon) up to the counter in hopes they would allow me to substitute it for the Salmon Avocado Roll. No substitutions! Oh well. I also bought one jar of Furikake Nori for my eldest daughter. She loves that stuff. So do I. It was a quick visit for me. I heard they are planning to expand their marketplace to next door. I'm really hoping they will add some inside seating so we can enjoy the sushi on-site. I'll definitely come back to see the expanded space. Good luck Yama Sushi!

The owner is super chill and My friend got their mango one and said it was pretty good. I got their new guava flave which was nice and refreshing and topped with a soft seedy guava slice, soft yet firm mochi bits, sweet light cream, fruity guava jam and was even filled with some sweet sago and soft jiggly jellies. They were popping up at Yama so I even got to use my SGV passport and try their cali rolls for the first time which were fat and fresh but nothing too special. Epic combo tho. And overall the shaved ice was lowkey pretty good. $11.95 each

Global Fresh Market is located on the corner, in a plaza off of Rosemead Blvd. This is also in the…read moresame plaza as AutoZone. They took over the old Valu Mart Warehouse location. I have been to this Asian market a few times and am actually surprised that the price of produce is really cheap. But you do have to be aware that the fruits may not last as long as maybe going to another market like Smart & Final or Stater Bro's. Also there have been times when I have seen produce starting to mold/ have spots. During cherry season, I was surprised to find that this market sold rainier cherries (I actually love these more than the red ones) for $1.98 per pound where as other places are selling them for anywhere from $5 to $7 per pound. It is very busy when some of their produce like that is very cheap (because you know you just aren't the only one who thinks that is a good deal). The rest of the market itself has a similar layout as what you would expect at other Asian markets. And on our past visits, the market has been clean and did not have that familiar odor that may be associated with Asian markets. One thing I thought was interesting though about this market is that you need to have a minimum purchase of at least $5 for credit card transactions. I have only seen a small number of markets that have a minimum for credit card transactions and just wanted to bring that up for those that don't normally carry cash but wish to grocery shop here.

The name Global Fresh Market was enough to lure me in -- I mean, "global" and "fresh" in the same…read morebreath? I was practically expecting a fruit passport stamp at the door. True to form, they did deliver an impressive assortment of tropical and hard-to-find fruits. So far, so good. Now, about that word fresh -- let's call it aspirational. Several fruits were sporting some noticeable blemishes, though in fairness, that might be the work of picky shoppers playing a game of "squeeze every mango and put it back." We've all seen that person. The selection overall wasn't bad, but they fell short on a few things I needed -- either the price was a touch high, or the brand wasn't quite right. The store leans heavily on food products from China, which appears to be their bread and butter (or should I say, their rice and soy sauce). As for making a special trip from home? Probably not. The limited selection on my must-have list makes it a tough sell for a dedicated haul. That said -- if you're here specifically to raid their produce section and stock up on exotic fruits you won't find at your average grocery store, this is absolutely your spot. Just, you know... inspect before you invest.

Last time I was here I got a weekday special meal deal. In…read morethe area again decided to do another meal deal todays special is burritos and I paid this with their horchata coffee. Service was kind of slow, seems like this side of the deli was being neglected so I did have to wait a little for someone to notice me and take my order. Really solid burrito, and the cafe horchata is pretty much a latte. Both very good. I forgot to take a picture of my burrito and drink so here is my empty cup. Lol

They have a nice bakery with lots of fresh Mexican sweet bread or pan dulce, a good amount of bakery items including cakes, fruit tarts and fresh bolillo. There is a cold and hot food express items section, with hot plate combos and aguas frescas to chose from. They have a large selection of dried chilies both prepacked and sold by bulk/weight, the produce looks fresh, the store was clean and the staff are friendly and helpful. This location was a bit out of my way but it was worth the visit as I was able to find everything I was looking for and more. I even found a large selection of Mexican Candies that I had been craving. It's a little dangerous knowing they have it all here but happy to know where I can find it! Plenty of parking available in the private shared lot.

Does anybody else feel like customer service here has really gone down?…read more I've always had tremendous experiences with Trader Joe's in the past, as they're known for their customer service, but lately it's just been going downhill. Especially when it comes to returns or asking team members about checking stock on items/help finding items. Then there's the issue of nothing ever being in stock. I'm not talking about discontinued items either, I'm talking about basic, staple items: milk, pasta noodles, frozen items. I went in with a list of 10 items only for 3 items to be out of stock, on a weekday. That's pretty bad. Does Trader Joe's really expect people to be able to come ink the same store multiple times in one week just to buy basics? This is starting to become a place that's not worthwhile to visit, as it's not very functional.

I love this market! I found my favorite ramen noodles here,…read morethey are taiwanese but who cares?! I also love their food court, I can't stop eating at Kazu Mori, their sizes are so generous, I actually have to eat the small Kazu, and I adore the rice they serve with it. I don't enjoy asking for help in the market, we keep getting a "this is not my area" answer but honestly I love exploring so now I try to visit the market on times that is not as busy and take my time navigating the aisles. This place is seafood haven, so many sushi options, so many poke options... it is incredible, the first time I went I felt like I was at a museum. I give 5 stars because I am in love with Korean culture, I love how many offerings they have, I love that everyday I visit feels different and I love that I don't feel foreign here even though I totally am.

I had bought an electric casserole pot from the LA location, but ended up not needing it. I tried returning it here a few days later, but the item scanned came up with the wrong price. The staff told me that the item needed to be taken back to the original location because they cannot take the return. That didn't sound right to me so I asked to speak to the manager. The manager actually told me the same thing. I explained how wrong this was and the manager finally said to hold on for a minute so that he can call the other store and try to work out a solution. I'm the end, they made a correction in their system to manually enter the corrected price and yield the correct total refund. It took a while but I was happy 8 didn't have to make a trip out to the other store.

(there are already wholesale places if I were to Buy in bulk anyway). If you are price sensitive and dont like to be duped. Compare your prices, there is always other place that has a more fair sales tactics. This Vons is a reflection of corporate greed. This is definitely not a preferred shopping location for me personally At least currently.

GW sometimes have good deals on their fruits. What caught my eyes from the get-go was their humongous white peaches. They looked like fruits on steroids! They were as big as my hands. And it was only $1.98 per pound. Usually they're smaller and also more expensive at other markets. Anyhow, GW has a great selection of everything from seasonal fruits to Chinese vegetables. They always looks fresh. At least when I walk inside. For the other groceries, they basically stock your daily Chinese a staples. Soy sauces, chili oils, preserved items, can goods, etc. Not too many choices to choose from, but it's fine. The store basically has a little of everything for your needs. It's quite clean and well lit inside. They don't seems too busy, and the workers don't look stressed. I guess it's fine. Overall, I like this place. I won't make a special trip to come here unless I workout next door. There's no comparison to other Asian markets, as those are usually more busy and well stocked with many choices. One question is they close at 9pm, but won't let you inside when it's 8:45pm. I don't get it. It's not a restaurant. Lol.

This is my go to for ready on the go coconut meat…read more It's like any it supermarket but in an area/city where you're surrounded by nothing but Asian markets--this is like an oasis in a dessert! It looks clean & well maintained. Produce look fresh, except for the little cart with produce that has gone past its prime---which I can appreciate coz I found a bag of ginger for $0.99. At regular Asian markets these may sell for $5/lb-- and are packaged. Sometimes you just want one or two pieces for whatever you're cooking that week and the whole package will just rot if you don't use it all. So there's that. Like HMart & 99 Ranch markets, most of their produce are packaged and wrapped in plastic. Staff here appear friendly enough. Some cashiers actually greet you while others just don't acknowledge you at all. Ah, the lost art of customer service. I know, this ain't Sprouts or Ralph's where it's usually standard & customary to acknowledge or greet customers. All in all, I appreciate this store for what is is.
