I did not know this wonderful store existed! I stumbled across it when I was at the Goodwill Thrift Store. The name piqued my interest and curiosity! What a wonderful store. The huge "Anime" statues(I suppose that's what they're called-I could be wrong)are for sale. Talk to management about the prices. I loved the Hello Kitty and Picchu toilet paper. I only bought the "Hello Kitty" tissues. So cute! I bought some soup and some hand lotion and a few other items. I did find the store's prices a little high, but I am on a budget. So everything is pricey to me. So, what do I know? Not much. I could have spent the entire day there. Pros: the cool merchandise. Clean and highly organized store. Cons: the young lady at the register was slouched down at the check out desk and did not seem like she wanted to be there. I could be wrong. Maybe she had a lot on her mind. But, when I checked out she was pleasant enough. Recommend? Yes-have loads of fun!!!' read more

I love this place. It's bright an bustling. Pretty much a fully loaded Asian market minus fresh produce. There's tons of memorabilia, popular snacks, tons of random products from cosmetics to flip flops. The staff is always friendly and never minds helping explain or help you find a product. I always get snacks and Labubu charms for my wife and daughters. There is much to discover at Ebisu Jax! Stop in and give the store a browse I'm sure you'll find something to try out. read more

If you want to experience and try something different, this is the place. If you want to leave the U.S. but scared to fly or can't afford to, this is the place to go. They have a wide variety of snacks and products to try that are not common in American grocery or convenience stores. From toys to snacks and cups to makeup, it is a shopping experience you will enjoy. read more

Absolutely recommend you visit Ebisu!!! We enjoyed looking at everything! I particularly enjoyed getting coins for the blind boxes. I got the capybaras and the Maneki-neko ("beckoning cat") for my desktop and my car. The mochi was tasty and the Hello Kitty nougat was delicious. They have beauty products and dish ware. I got a chopstick pack I love & some Hello Kitty pasta. Be prepared to spend a while looking around at all they have to offer. Same plaza has a Goodwill store too if you're interested read more

It is great to have this option around! It has a little of everything: snacks, Ramen, toys, collectibles, skin and beauty care, drinks, and stuff that is just fun. I would recommend some time here to check everything out. It is a little on the pricey side (a small bag of chips could be $3-$4) but it's fun to try. read more

Japanese store in Jax!!! Finally finally, ive been seeing the don Quixote stores all over my tiktok and we got a little piece of it here in Jacksonville. This store is filled to the brim with snacks, games, household items, and my favorite... Skincare! I was a little overreacting and excited for everything i did overflow my basket a little. The prices are a tad high but i cant fault them too much cause of inflation. Overall super fun store and definitely will be coming back for a restock. read more

Wild Saturday night checking out the new Ebisu here in Jax! When getting directions to this place, I immediately thought .. Of course it's off beach Blvd! All the good places in Jax are somewhere off beach Blvd. The store is remarkably clean and tidy. First impression: it's giving upscale CVS or Walgreens. It's got a little bit of everything - makeup, skincare, toilet paper, snacks, candy, drinks, toys, pens, pencils, cups, plates, random essentials you never thought you needed. I probably spent a good 30 mins in there just looking around before making my way to the line to pay. This place is family friendly and I appreciated the fact that they were open until 9:30 on Saturday evening. The line to pay moved fast and the front counter girl was in such good spirits for it being so busy and late, I'm sure she had a long day. I asked her what skin care product she's tried that she likes and she gave me a great recommendation about a moisturizer to try on my next visit - which falls under the shiseido brand (great brand) Will be grabbing that on my next trip. I labeled the pic if anyone is interested in knowing what her rec was. (Red and white bottle/box) Looking forward to visiting again! read more

Can I just say that this is now this is my favorite store in Jax? I love how big and bright this place is! Anything and everything related to Japan is here. The isles are nice and wide and each product has a shelf tag that translates what the item is. For a little more info on it, I highly recommend Google Lens. I didn't get any figures or plushies, just 99% food. lotsa chips, lotsa sodas, and some strange purchases for me, grilled ray fin and corn tea. The fin tastes like it's from the sea but has the consistency of really tough jerky. After chewing it a bit it softened and is pretty good. The tea is NOT sweetened so if you can't drink it this way, add sweetener. Definitely like drinking liquid corn but I did enjoy it. For the chips my favorites are the Lays Cucumber flavor (which are surprisingly sweet ), the Lays Mustard Octopus flavor, and the Lays Grilled Squid flavor. The sodas we got stated on the bottle that they were made from the water on Mt. Fuji and they tasted great. I need more! read more

If you love Japanese culture, you should go here! Real cool Japanese store. Grand Opening today of Ebisu Life Store, on Friday the 13th of all days. Very clean (and bright) inside with a wide variety of great authentic stuff; all kinds of snacks and drinks. Wide variety of Asian Goods. You may get lost in translation as everything they sell is in Japanese. We ended picking some Ramen and some soups to go. And if you come here between 9/13 - 9/15, you will get a promotional treat(s). And don't worry, they are well staffed so service is served with a smile. ARIGATO Ebisu !!! read more

This store is a must for anyone who loves Japanese anime and culture. They even had a Moomin toy machine at the front. I never find Moomin toys locally. Alas, I didn't have any dollar bills on me. I bought some tasty Cinnamaroll candy on my first visit. I was in Sanrio heaven. I would recommend going to Rd international market for cheaper food. read more

Fun and interesting store! Majority of the sold items are Japanese. Luckily they had translated notes on each item. I bought several snacks that you normally wouldn't see at American stores like crab flavored chips and mochi sweets. They also have cute mugs and other home items. The store is fairly large and kept very clean. Would definitely go again to try other snacks! read more

Ebisu Jax - Mochi, spicy chips and crab flavored Lays chips. - International Grocery Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

What an awesome place to have in the city! Brightly lit and with friendly staff, Ebisu Jax has tons of food, drinks, toys, skincare and cosmetics, and even some other household items. We didn't use the gachapon or claw machines but were impressed with the variety. It's hard to say much about pricing because items obviously come at a bit of a premium due to being imported, but nothing made me shocked, and they did have some sales. I was glad to see that the items had basic English descriptions on the shelving price tags, although I did catch myself Googling a few things for more detail, so I'd suggest making sure you have your phone with you if you want/need to look up detailed information. We'll have a great time working through the snacks and are looking forward to visiting again. read more

Beautiful, very brightly-lit, cute store carrying various Japanese items. It's fun, there's something for everyone, but also consider the following: --They have some figures but it's not heavy on anime or manga stuff--no wallscrolls, T-shirts, only a few key rings, et al. It's not an anime store. --It's not a grocery store, either. They have a lot of Japanese snacks and sodas/teas/other drinks but not even basics for cooking--no soya in example. So, it's fine for stocking up on snacks but you'll need to hit up another Asian market for things to actually cook. --They do however have a lot of cosmetics, personal care, and homegoods like air fresheners and laundry soap. Everything is well-presented, clear, and with labels offering English translation of what the item is as well. I would have liked some more groceries myself, but I can see the draw they have for people interested in Japanese goods in general. Pretty good selection of table service/dishes kinda stuff, too. Worth checking out, certainly. read more

This is such a cool venue!!! It's like a teleportation into scenes of cool anime and Japanese culture. It has all the bells and whistles of a place that has your inner child going oh and awe! There's toys, snacks, sweets, drink, stationery, dishes, plushies, makeup, healthcare products, and household gadgets. I was able to find some fun items for my adult children and the kid in myself. I could have spent more time in the venue looking around, but I didn't want to buy more stuff than my budget could afford in one visit. The store is clean, bright, and organized! The staff is professional, personable, and easy to engage with. I definitely recommend this store for anyone who is interested in this type of stuff. I know that this barely touches on the intricacies of this culture, but it's worth exploring all the different aspects offered. I had a wonderful experience. read more

Such an awesome store. I am part Japanese and love the culture, products and housewares. I love Daiso but we do not have that here. I am not super into Anime but there are so many items that any Anime lover would have to go here! My nephew isn't crazy into Anime but does like Pokemon and found some very cool stuff. I always find some interesting drinks but can also find golden oolong tea. They have popular snacks, cookies, crackers, drinks, soda, coffee, teas and other food items, mostly shelf stable. They also have some cool housewares, decorating items, toys, paper goods, even toilet paper and tissues with Hello Kitty. There are trading cards, claw machines, health and beauty products and more. There is always something to discover. It is light and bright inside, the isles aren't too packed and they are fairly wide. It is a nice shopping/browsing experience. I would definitely check it out. read more

What a great addition to Jacksonville! This store was very clean, organized and had a full staff. They specialize in Japanese products and sell items such as snacks, drinks, candy, kitchen items and beauty products. There were also game machines along the walls that you can play. If you like Sanrio and Pokemon this is the store for you. They have an entire wall full of plush and so many cute things. I will definitely come back when I have more time to browse. read more

This is an Asian specially store that does have a ton of cute vending type machines, Asian snacks and San Rio type items. HOWEVER, I am familiar with the pricing of Totoro, Hello Kitty, etc. I don't know if the rent is high in their location, but the prices are off the charts. A tiny teacup with maybe a saucer was in the 17.00 range. I have bought a zillion items with this type of theme, and even though you expect to pay more, nothing like the prices I saw. Maybe they need to find a different importer. read more

Has so many options of fun things to buy at all different price ranges. Noticed some things were a priced up compared to where I saw it other stores/online.The beauty and skincare products are diverse and plentiful, bought some that I use daily. Staff was not overly confident in recommending what beauty products to purchase so maybe do research prior! Store was clean. They also give you your purchase in a reusable bag which we liked read more

Very cute Japanese grocery, you will find all kinds of things for your needs and interests

Limited novelty here. Mostly household goods like cutlery plates and bowls. The majority of their character items are "mainstream" so to speak such as Hello Kitty and friends, DBZ, and Gudetama. I was looking for vocaloid merch in particular but there was only a couple of mini Hatsune Miku figurines. I was also looking for a ome other popular animes like sailor moon, and fruits basket but unfortunately there was very little. read more

As someone who is a transplant here in Jax, and came from the Bay Area, California - ebisu is a mix between Daiso and Miniso. Happy to have found this place! I find it convenient to come here and buy my shampoo, conditioner, makeup and snacks! read more

I traveled here from Tallahassee since I miss the Japanese markets in LA. This place is great! It's definitely not like a Marukai or Nijiya or Tokyo Central in that it doesn't have traditional Japanese groceries. It's more like a Japanese culture intro into popular snacks and pop culture items. It does have a really extensive beauty selection like you'd find in a traditional Japanese grocery store. Overall it's a fun experience and you're sure to find something cool and niche to buy. read more

It was so much fun to drive an hour+ to check out this place. I love the friendly staff who provided great service! The ambiance is welcoming! There is a lot of snacks so lots of options. I was told that Orlando will have one opening soon read more

Fun place with a great selection of any and everything Japanese. There are toys, plenty of little kitty and Pokémon and DragonballZ, food and noodles aplenty, and beauty products galore (I am beyond help, but fun to see a vast selection). Lots of easy parking. Great visit. read more

Reminds me of most shops in Japan everything is authentic! This is the closest you will come to food from Japan.

This is a combo of convenient store and department store like Daiso. The price at Daiso is better. The service is medium. The store is big and well organized. read more

Variety of goods. It gets busy on the weekends so if you go during the week it may give you more time and space to enjoy.

Ebisu Jax is the second Ebisu I've been to and while they did not have as much as the other one I had been to, they still had a bunch! They have tons of anime, Pokemon, Japanese, Korean, etc. items and the prices are not horrible. The staff were kind and I really loved the layout. read more
