By far one of my favorite grocery stores. Smaller scale, but had it all and a lot of surprisingly…read moregood products and deals. The first thing you will notice when you walk in is the fresh smell of bread (at the right time that is) of their bakery to the right. VAST assortment of baked goods from some of the best grocery croissants, loafs, rolls, buns. It also has pretzels, sweets (egg custards as well) and even some unique items like their cheese pepperoni bread. The vegetables and fruit are good and fresh for the most part. This store has meats, whether packaged or deli. Wide variety of cheeses, dips, sauces that you won't find elsewhere. The best thing about this store are the prices and unique items, while still maintaining the everyday brands we're used to. Plus are the plants and flowers. Actually found a fiddle leaf fog plant for only $12. *they even sell craft beer on top of the common domestics and imports

Bring your own bags or purchase some of their reusable bags located near the registers. The one thing that causes me stress is checking out. There is usually only one cashier open. They have at least 5 or more lanes and typically the one is open near the self checkout. They have most of the self checkouts open now, but it can be hectic, because if something goes wrong the one cashier has to stop to help. Today, there was a new person training on the one register and her trainer was helping the self checkout. I was patient with the cashier, because she was nice. The self checkout can be stressful because people with large qualities of groceries use the checkout, so you have to wait. You can only imagine the chaos when you are dealing with people who are not use to the technology or are unable to scan their items properly. Even with these first world frustrations, I like this store. It is usually clean and has a unique variety of products. Consider the time you come, BYOB (bring your own bags) and have a little patience.

The layout is similar to the other Publix stores we frequent in Florida, so finding items I need is an easy proposition. The produce looks fresh and the shelves are stocked. Self-checkout lanes make for a quick payment experience when we only buy a few things. I like the local craft beer selection and can imagine that the locals take the variety for granted. A discount kiosk is located near the from where out-of-season food, beverage, and non-food deals can be found. The bathrooms are clean. The service is average and not what I consider the Publix-experience.

I went to this market to get ingredients for Lao Sausage. The produce section is well stocked, with…read morepractically everything you need for southeast Asian cooking. However, when I bought fresh chilli peppers, some were moldy. And so was my lemongrass, but I still could use most of it. Some of their vegetables and herbs could undeniably be more fresh. The store had an Asian section, and a mexican/African section, and the meat department was in between both. This store has different ailses for different cuisines, and I had a hard time finding Thai sticky rice because at first I didn't realize the store setup But, they did indeed have Thai sticky rice, though the selection wasn't great.(for sticky rice.) I even saw at the back of the store a little section for European refrigerated and non-regfrigerated items, and was pleasantly surprised to spot kvass(A fermented Slavic bread drink). The main complaint I have with this store, and the reason I didn't give it 5 stars was their meat selection is quite terrible. The meat(pork,beef,chicken), was not much to choose from, which is one of the main reasons I came to that store. Since this was an Asian and multicultural store, I specifically expected they would have animal parts that stores like Wal-Mart don't carry, such as pig ears and skin. But, their pork selection was even worse than Wal-Mart, and the meat looked old and it SMELLED. All meat smells, but ESPECIALLY there. Do NOT buy meat from that store and don't expect to find pig or cow parts if you need it for Lao or southeast Asian dishes in general. Ignoring the meat section, the store is actually pretty well stocked, and has lots of hidden gems. However, I'd like to make a note for anyone looking for specific items there. They don't carry sausage casings, I asked. And though they have a very good selection of Japanese glutinous rice that's easy to find, their Thai sticky rice selection is pretty bad, so I wouldn't actually go there to buy sticky rice. My mom kept saying the meat also looked like garbage and that the store was dirty, but I was so busy running around trying to find sticky rice that I wasn't paying attention to the stores cleanliness honestly So yeah! I would go here again, but absolutely not for meat. When I got to checkout, me and my mom saw a Jamaican man with a cart full of very oxidized and reeking oxtails and we were shocked that he would seriously buy those from super-G mart.

There are always fun things to try at Super G Mart. Today we came to restock our chili crisp and…read morerice vinegar but left with a few other new things to try. One was the fun Korean drinks. They recently started stocking cups of ice so you can have a cold drink on the go. We tried the Melon Ade with Lychee jelly and it was really refreshing and delicious. I would definitely recommend giving some of the drinks a try the next time you stop in. We also tried a sweet cheese bar found in the refrigerated section. They had several flavors and we tried the coconut almond and chocolate caramel. I did not like the chocolate caramel at all but the coconut almond was really good. We have a few other items we are going to try later so I'll have to post more photos once I give them a try.

I like Li Ming's to where it doesn't feel as "rushed for products" how Super G gives off. The…read morefeeling other customers give off is a more relaxed feel while super g makes it feel like you have to grab such and such produce/item before someone else does. Typically they have the product, especially the brand I'm looking for. Finding the right brand is key to making your dish you've made/family used for years...so this is really good. They also have a lot of fresh made items they didn't typically have before. Lately, things feel much more organized where not many random items are scattered out like years before. Would recommend.

I wasn't planning to make a review but when i read others, i decided someone needed to give an…read moreindependent unapologetic and frank depiction of this place. I've lived in Greensboro long before these started to operate so i've seen Li-Ming and Super G mart go through all their evolution stages until now. What they have in common is that the owners bought an old, badly aged and frankly decrepit industrial space (The super G mart used to be a chemical factory !) and did zero renovation of the interior. Not even replaced the old torn up plastic floors and for a long time you could smell the chemical fumes from the old plant except at the fish market section that stunk so bad that it covered all smells. This is the nature of Asian business they don't care about how and where, they just want to sell a maximum for profit. Same mentality as these fly by night Chinese buffet restaurant that import all their food from China and do not buy a single food locally. Super G mart had a rough start but it was always run by a remarkable older Korean lady who made all the selections for the store (a huge job) and they always had cheap mexican labor and cashiers from 3rd world Asian country. You don't want to ask who is legal or not. The fresh produce section of super G mart has improved considerably in the last 8 years. It's exceptionally well organized and replenished. Thanks to the high customer volume the turn around of fresh produce is high which mean fresh. And the mexican hand labor are good at doing their work. Note how you will not see a Nig Eager doing any kind of worthwile work in any place in the country or the world for that matter. And you cannot call it a prejudice because it is a fact. So Super G is excellent for fresh produce and it really is international as it carries South American as well as African and Asian fresh produces. The rest of the store is very well stocked thanks to the Korean lady i mentioned higher who i believed is retired now. I would say it's an excellent Asian market but the prices are not cheap. You have to watchout some things are very expensive. Now about the Chinese Li Ming. It started as a communist looking communal supermarket, like what you would expect in 1990 North Korea, or 1990 China. The product were far less varied than super G and since most of it is from China and the quality was lower. It is a big warehouse. The fish seafood market was nightmarish for years and still is. You would often see the tanks filled with dead fishes, filth, dark beige color water never cleaned, algaes on the glass. The fishes looked pitiful and pleading to die. The stench was hard to ignore. The meat market was no better. Run by a couple of underpaid mexicans you could see the absolute worse possible origin meat. It looked like being in Africa in 1970. For many years i didn't dare buy anything in the meat department. Even the vegetables looked like they came from polluted chinese cities. Only bagged produce could be trusted. Other than that, it really is a Chinese market, they have little to no other Asian countries products. Prices aren't low either. The owner is always working in the store an old bold chinese with a defiant nationalist chinese attitude ready for any confrontation. Very offensive and loud but within Chinese ways. You can almost smell the greed from watching him. In conclusion Li Ming is deifnitively inferior to super Gmart but they will have some teas i couldn't find in super G and Super G has much better selection of international fresh produce. In both of them i would be very cautious if buying fish or meat, as these places are far from hygienic and if it smells and looks often suspicious then you can be certain the back rooms are full or rodents and vermines too that will get at the food. So you know what to expect and shop cautiously. Li Ming has far less customer volume and is a big warehouse giving you a weird comfortable feeling of being in a time machine and visiting a communist store in the 1980. Even today in 2026. For sure the owner is old enough to have known that era in China. Every year the store hosts a chinese furniture and trinkets market next to the hot food and bakery. They bring in exclusive chinese interior objects what you would find in a highly touristic chinese crafmanship store in San Francisco in the 1980's. Prices are super high and meaningless. As you know or should know, Chinese are cunning merchants and the price is as high as you are willing to pay. Everything needs to be bargained extra hard. The way only a Chinese could do it. If you are a westerner you are guaranteed to overpay by a factor of not 4x , 3x. If you do 2x you didn't do too badly, Chinese know how to judge you to psychologically massage you to pay and think you paid a fair price. Overall i think the prices are high in both stores. But i enjoy shopping there for specialty products once every three months on average.
