Whoa I had driven down this road many times but totally missed glances over here. Maybe I looked…read moreonce but thought it wasn't for the public. You see US Foods is one of the big wholesale food distributers that restaurants big and small use. They will deliver big loads of goods whether food or supplies right to the restaurant, usually on pay terms so no cash is handled. And for busy restaurants this is a must, as they constantly need raw goods coming in weekly if not daily. This is the first time I saw a 'US Foods' store. I think they took over something else. But it is a big store/space where almost everything is in bulk and/or wholesale form. For the home cook there is really nothing here that would fit their needs/kitchen unless you like to buy in bulk. 20 - 50 pound bags of beans, sugar or flour is usually just too much for an average Joe to carry to the car, let alone store in a home pantry. But if you like to entertain/cook for a large group like a big birthday, a bbq outing or big holiday get-togethers, then this place may serve you a purpose. I browsed one day and got a good feel for the place and here are my observations. If you go into the fresh produce area or the meat/dairy areas, you will have to go into a refrigerated room. The whole room is about 35 degrees so if you go in there in shorts and/or a t-shirt, then you will not be able to stay in there for too long. Produce not really extensive but you will be able to find some basics. Some things are in cases/big bags but not everything. Actually lots of things in smaller packaging like 2-3 pounds which is doable for a home fridge/usage. I'd say the offerings here are somewhat similar to what you could get at Costco. Meats are a mixed bag. Lots of processed meats like deli meat in whole form. Lots of cheese too but much too bulky for a home fridge. There are pork and beef but all in big/whole chunks. Nothing will be cut into steaks. Big packs too like minimum 10 pounds or more. But if you're cooking for a big group, you're gonna need a minimum of 10 pounds so this may be a draw for me. The bad is for the beef selection, even though the pricing did seem good, there is no 'choice' grade. They use 'select' grade here, which is a notch down from choice. But if you're just braising or slow cooking then this grade would be just fine. Costco only serves 'choice' grade or higher so theirs is more premium. Pork is fine here, I got some pork tenderloin in 2 packs, which is one of the smallest packages I saw, ideal for home usage. Good selection of restaurant ware. Pots, utensils and storage containers. This is a big draw for me as I love restaurant quality storage containers. They are sturdy, with tight lids and many are stackable. These are even hard to find at Costco and Smart and Final. On a weekday morning there is zero traffic here, complete opposite of Costco. Now this is more geared towards restaurants, but knowing if I can get something here or Costco, I will choose this, as the parking and ease to get in and out is an amazing asset to me. I was gonna give them 3 stars for not really being friendly for home usage but given those certain occasions where I'm cooking for 10 or more people, then this place will get a heavy consideration. And drum roll please******no membership card needed. Open to the public. **cymbal crash**

It's a mini supermarket located in a warehouse area/district in San Leandro, and there is very limited parking. They sell Asian groceries here, but honestly nothing too special. The pricing wasn't that cheap or reasonable, and the place is very old and dated inside. Not very modern compared to another place we visited nearby also in a warehouse type store. The customer service was alright, the staff here were friendly enough to get by, and they speak English and Chinese here, so no worries there. Cash or card is accepted here. Wouldn't necessarily make a special trip to come out here, overall 3 stars.

This is more of a wholesale place that sells bulk restaurant goods like plastic utensils, take out containers, baking aluminum supplies, old school plastic round washing tubs and chairs in primary school colors (iykyk), bulk baking soda and other seasonings/condiments, Chinese cooking sauces and oil in large gallon tin cans or jugs, lotus seed paste in bulk, dry soup herbs, and old school snacks like garden coconut cookie rings, sesame candies, plastic snack tubs of star sugar biscuits. There's some regular size commonly used Chinese sauces, aroy-d coconut milk $1.59 that usually sells for $1.99-2.29 elsewhere. Also saw Prima Taste brand laksa paste in bulk bag for $15!! that'll be good for at least 5 meals but it says use within 3 days. Definitely more for restaurant use or a large event. There's also veggies in a stand format at the front but not a lot of choices like your regular Asian supermarket. Four stars for cheaper prices but you're gonna have to navigate on your own in the narrow aisles which is open to the public but not really meant to be customer oriented. Probably not English speaking either fyi. They have frozen produce too but idk they look questionable in terms of how long they've been sitting there. Most of them are in these ice cream like chest freezers vs the usual store large open door freezers in supermarkets. There's only 3 or 4 parking spots near the entrance. Otherwise street parking which isn't difficult but may need a shopping cart or some help carrying in case you end up buying a lot.

They may want your information about your business to prove that you're a restaurant owner.
