Manhong Chinese Food Combo Menu 8/16/2021
Tiff H.

I'm not sure why I haven't eaten in the Assi Food Court more, other than the fact that it's pretty far from Dunwoody. Outside of the Assi, the plaza is bustling with tons of Korean restaurants and shops - so there is definitely steep competition. But when in Suwanee, I hadn't thought to check out any of these restaurants - but since I've been coming up to Suwanee more often, I decided to give it a try. There are several bustling options in the food court. There's always a bakery - in this case, there's a Mozart Bakery, which it looks like has actually been renovated since my last visit. I picked up a watermelon slushie to pair with my lunch. I ordered from a couple stalls to try different things. I ordered spicy rice cake with ramen & some kimbab from the Korean snack bar (has a Pinocchio cartoon next to the Korean characters for Pinokio. I also tried special combo B from Manhong Chinese Food - they had a great dine-in combo menu and I was craving jjajjangmyeon & jjambong. If you're doing some grocery shopping at Assi and need a quick bite, definitely recommend stopping in the food court! While the food is just a-ok, the prices are hard to beat.

I could spend hours here! The produce is fresh, the selection of sauces and noodles is unreal, and the meats are high quality. Great for Korean BBQ at home. We also grabbed some fried dumplings and bubble tea--perfect snack combo.

Great produce section

This was a pleasant surprise! The produce selection here was much larger than I expected. The prices were hit and miss. We picked up a few items. The rest of the store had some great finds as well. The seafood department was really full of fresh fish but it still smelled liked the ocean over there. The freshly made area had a nice range of kimchi sizes, soups, and other traditional Korean food. Lastly, the food court looked like it had some great options. We walked through it and scoped out several dishes we wanted to try. It was busy which is a pretty good sign. They have a reward program. They should do more to promote bring your own bags. There was soooooo much single use plastic here.

Mozart Cafe & Bakery

This market is quaint but s little combobluated but it has a lot of great options for international products. We purchased some groceries. Some of the products, especially the frozen products, were over-frozen once opened. But everything else was great! The food market had a lot of options. We ordered a hot dog combo and Mango smoothie with boba. The smoothe was delicious. We purchased from Mozart Cafe & bakery.

Nearly 90% of these grapes were rotten! Why are they even on the shelf!

I'm not sure what has happened to Assi Plaza over the last year but the selection of produce is absolutely horrible! It's been a steady decline since about 2019 but the cheaper prices kept me coming. Where else can you get 6 limes for a $1 or 3 packs of cherry tomatoes for $1.99 or even 5 bundles of Cilantro for $1.99??? Prices are great!!!! That's no lie. But the quality I'm noticing is tremendously lower. This past holiday weekend I made a fruit salad to add to my family's breakfast. 3/4 of the fruit I got from Assi had to be thrown in the trash due to the mold and rotten fruit. I totally wasted my money on grapes, raspberries and kiwis. It took me long enough to sift through the fruit to find what appeared to be good quality, but once I got home it was rotten!!!! You have to keep an eye out too. Sometimes this place will know the produce is spoiled and wrap it in plastic to sell as a bundle to get rid of it!!! If that's not a scam I don't know what that is. Also, customers will always try to alter fruit regardless the store, meaning taking some grapes from another package to add to theirs and make sure they have the perfect product when going to the register. But customers here take it to an entire new level! Where is the staff making sure some of these customers stop altering the produce to take the best of the best leaving spoiled items for everybody else. Some items are a steal here. Like I mentioned, citrus is usually better priced here and good quality along with herbs and tomatoes...Things like that. When it comes to grapes, pineapple, berries, onions, or even the assortment of herbs like basil, chives, etc, It's unheard of there or just bad quality. However, the store does have a great selection of noodles, asian sauces and things of that nature. I will continue to visit the store due to the location but I am officially DONE with the produce.

Fresh Produce

Assi Plaza is like a little slice of Korea right in our neighborhood in Suwanee, Georgia! It is a Korean supermarket stocked with a variety of Korean items. The seafood selection here is fresh compared to other Asian markets. Inside, you'll also find a bustling food court serving up a variety of delicious Korean dishes. It's the perfect spot to grab a quick tasty meal.

Beer selection

This is my go to Asian supermarket, since it's the closest one. Plenty of parking and little stores to explore in the same plaza. There are two boba places walking distance (gong cha and Kung fu tea). The inside is always clean and lately not too crowded. I do usually try to go on a weekday. There are plenty of produce,snacks and drinks to choose from. I always feel like there are new types of speciality beer when I visit! You have to try the Korean radish here, it's more sweet tasting than the other stores. Make sure it is the one packaged in a plastic bag. The ice cream section is a bit limited as well as the side dishes. There is usually a special of you spend a certain $ amount. For example if you spend $50 or more, you could get a box of instant coffee for $7.99 instead of regular price. I usually like to order to go from the food court when I'm shopping there. Enough variety to choose from. Although if you are looking for baked goods, I would recommend going to Hansel and Gretel in the same shopping plaza rather than the Mozart inside Assi.

This is the original Assi Plaza in Georgia. The Assi on Pleasant Hill is the newer (and bigger) one. Assi Duluth is probably still my favorite Asian mega market in metro Atlanta due to its combination of size, selection food court, and pricing. There are many good supermarkets in Gwinnett County and this one, Assi Suwanee, is just another. I decided to venture up to Assi Suwanee for the heck of it. I always wanted to see what it looked like. The grocery store is located in a Korean shopping center with other shops and restaurants, including a Hansel and Gretel Bakery. Assi Suwanee is about half the size, maybe even a quarter of the size, of Assi Duluth. Apart from the produce, meat, and seafood sections, Assi Suwanee has about 16 aisles worth of foods. The frozen food and non-food (e.g. appliances and products) selection is somewhat limited and not nearly as expanse as Assi Duluth. I saw some Korean sour plums and water apples at this store, which I don't recall seeing anywhere else. Of course, produce is seasonal and can vary from week to week and day to day. The prices here are the same as Assi Duluth. There's a food court, but it's small and feels disconnected from the rest of the store. The food court is located around the corner, past the checkout counters. I saw maybe four restaurants and they all appeared to serve Korean cuisine. Assi Suwanee is clean, well-lit, and has great service from the butcher to the bag boys. After checkout, you may notice several clear boxes on the wall where people have dropped in their receipts. Each box represents a local Korean church to which Assi donates 2% of the total receipt costs.

Persimmon sale!!

I'm definitely reading that the one off in Duluth is bigger and I did check that out but I didn't like the surround area.

Review for H Mart H…read moreMart is one of my favorite Korean grocery stores--ever. I remember when they first opened locations in the Bay Area in places like San Francisco and San Jose, and I would gladly make the trek just to shop there. I've never been disappointed. The stores are always clean, organized, and full of incredible food options. What really makes H Mart special, though, is that it's more than just a grocery store--it's an experience. Inside this massive market, you'll find a bakery, authentic Korean food stalls, and restaurant-quality meals being made fresh. It's honestly amazing to walk into a grocery store and have access to food that tastes like it came straight from a restaurant kitchen. Because I travel frequently for work across the Southeast--covering a pretty large region--I'm always on the lookout for an H Mart whenever I'm near one. I've been lucky to have access to locations like Cary, North Carolina, and the one in Buford outside Atlanta, which serves a large and vibrant Asian community. Whenever I'm within a reasonable driving distance--usually within about 10 miles--I make a point to stop in and enjoy a delicious, authentic Korean meal that's made to order and very reasonably priced. I've brought friends and colleagues with me, and they've all been blown away by the food stalls. My personal go-to: * LA galbi (Korean short ribs)--if it's on the menu, I'm ordering it * All the little banchan side dishes--I absolutely love them * Fresh seafood options, including live crab and fish that can be cleaned and prepared for you * A stop at the bakery for dessert--think croissant donuts, almond pastries, or a beautiful layered crepe cake Some locations--even the ones I visited years ago on the West Coast--would steam or fry seafood for you right there, which makes dinner incredibly convenient. Another thing I appreciate is the cleanliness. This store truly rivals places like Whole Foods in terms of organization and quality, even while handling live seafood. The parking lots are typically spacious, well-maintained, and easy to navigate. I also love browsing the aisles for specialty ingredients you can't find everywhere. For example, they carry my favorite laksa noodles, which remind me of a Malaysian dish I fell in love with while visiting a friend in Mauritius. It's always fun to discover unique items like that. The staff--both in the grocery store and at the food stalls--are friendly and helpful, which makes the whole experience even better. Bottom line: If you're anywhere near Cary, North Carolina--or even the Buford, Georgia area--do yourself a favor and make a beeline to H Mart. As a lifelong foodie, I truly believe: Life is too short not to eat well.

While I prefer the Duluth location this one was not nearly as busy so that was a plus too. I would certainly come back.

There's a bunch of pictures hanging around the restaurant that show you what's on the menu, there's a good variety of Korean dishes and every one of them looks mouth watering!

These are my favorite dishes and they come with pickled radish (SO good) and steaming hot miso soup. Both dishes have quite a kick to it so definitely have a lot of water ready! The portions are large so it's enough to share with another person. It's not too pricey and there's not a long wait time either. Overall, good food! -this was all vegetarian-

This is a perfect spot to get your fix of some Korean food when you are in a hurry, or don't want to spend the time or money on a lengthy sit down meal. The other night I was working and came by and had Kim Chee fried rice, came with a side of Japanese pickles and some bone broth. Total? Under $10. What a steal, even with tipping $2 in cash. They are practicing COVID safety protocols, and they offer many other dishes that you can get. For the uninitiated, you go with what you know. But if you are feeling daring, you can get something you've never had before and see if you like it! Support small owned businesses!

Not at any other H-Marts, but at this Duluth location, things have just gone awry in the past few years. For one, they allow religious harassment at their door. I really don't appreciate being flagged down and chased by Bible "advocates" outside their door. I find that really intrusive, and bordering harassment. One time, this bawdy Korean lady chased me toward my car with this religious pamphlet...when I clearly told her "NO"...not interested. I mean, what more can I do or say without being chased like that??? So rude! I can't believe H-Mart is letting these folks harass their customers like this. Not all the people that shop at this mart is a Catholic, or Christian, or religious at all. Even if they are, they STILL may not wish to be harassed like this. For some folks, religion (or spirituality) is a personal thing. Religious harassment is so offputting...and inappropriate? I mean, this is a supermarket!!! It's just beyond the pale. This right here made me drop 2 stars off the bat! Then their weird food court hours. I mean, most food courts are up and running from 11 am on...but here, they start opening past 12 pm. I think on the day I was there, they were opening the food court closer to 12:30! That's just not acceptable. Lastly, I find their layout extremely awkward and uncomfortable to manuever around.
