    Every single night at 8pm, people line up to get sushi, bentos, onigiri, and more at 50% off from Genkiya Mart, a Japanese grocery store in SoHo. Come a bit earlier to choose what items you want for dinner (or lunch the next day) and wait until 8pm to check out. There's going to be a long checkout line, but it moves fast! The staff are friendly, the mart is well organized, and there are two clean tables inside that you can eat at. The avocado they use in their food items is so creamy and soft. This may be one of the best sushi deals in NYC and is a solid option for a quick grab-and-go meal in Manhattan. What we got: (2) sushi boxes: eel avocado & spicy tuna with salmon avocado (1) rice dish: chicken karaage don (2) onigiris: Shrimp tempura & lobster onigiri Total: $22.50 after 8pm

    L was watching a Mike Chen video and he really liked this place. I don't agree with most places he recommends so we wanted to check this place out since we were going to be in the area. It's seems like a clean market... a lot of the products are really highly processed and the fresher items like veggies.. are really pricey..I can get them delivered to my house for less than half the price. A lot of young people appeared out of nowhere. Once it hits 8pm, the sushi, bentos, and onigiris are 50%. Line went quickly so at least we didn't have to wait long. Most of the customers are college students but some of them can clearly afford better food than supermarket sushi... I can't recommend the sushi.. It tasted like old supermarket quality sushi cuz we did buy it around 8pm. I don't know what I was thinking. It had good reviews. It's not worth the 50% off. So bad.. I would never get sushi from a market again. We couldn't finish the food and threw away half of everything. I tried a few bites of the rice ball, few bites of the toro sushi box and a few sushi rolls. The rice was still so cold and a lil hard even after the commute home. The sashimi fish boxes are not worth it. It's just a lil fish with a ton of hard rice that doesn't taste good. And I love rice. The rice balls did have more protein than more popular places I've been to, but Genkiya's was pretty bland. One of the 2 drinks L bought was also pretty horrible.. I won't be back. Still very clean and the staff were nice.

    I was drawn by the 50% off sushi, bento, and onigiri after 8pm so I decided to get some myself. I got the eel, tuna avocado + spicy tuna, and a spicy crab ongiri, all of which totaled a bit more than $12 after discount and taxes. It is an amazing deal as it is a lot of food, but the sushi was so mid and not the freshest. I would've written it off for the amazing value but I just can't, since the salmon was quite fishy and the eel was slimy and fishy. It's as if the sushi came from a grocery store (I guess it technically is, but you get what I mean). People shop before 8pm then wait in line until 8pm to start checkout, so I recommend going early for the ample selection or just skip the lines by taking chances on what's remaining thereafter.

    Nice & neat Japanese market with a good selection of Japanese & Asian groceries (snacks, some fresh produce, sauces, noodles etc.). Prices seemed reasonable / at market rate. Everything was well organized and clean. I think the biggest draw might be the 50% off prepared items after 8pm (sushi, bento boxes, onigiri). I happened to go there around 7.50pm by chance, wondering why a whole bunch of people had food in their hands and were lingering around the store. The moment it hit 8pm, they all started lining up to pay. I took advantage of that and indeed got a great deal on avocado maki rolls and seaweed salad onigiri- this came out to ~$6 with the 50% for both items! I think the onigiri was $3 and avo sushi was $9, before discount. The avocado sushi was so good!! LOTS of avocado and a very thin layer of well seasoned rice- just the way I like my maki rolls. Overall- nice grocery store. If you are in the area around 8pm, you will get a great deal!

    I stumbled upon this Japanese supermarket one night in Soho. They have a 50% off sushi, bentos, onigiri after 8 pm each night. When I went in at 7:45 pm, people start gathering their items and at 8 pm on the dot, they start lining up to pay. So if you want to get the deal, go there early. Will definitely stop by another to buy their other items before 8 pm.

    Great selection of hot food- after 8pm there is 50% off all onigiri, noodles, soups, salads and sushi. Great bargain. The staff are super friendly and the vibe is chill and you can eat at a table inside or outside.

    Salmon bowl. Bowl is mostly filled with rice. No ginger, nothing.

    Prepped food has really gone down. Paid 16 dollars for essentially a bowl of rice. No longer worth it for a quick affordable lunch.

    Can't go wrong with 50% off their sushi / hot foods selections after 8pm!! It makes the food SOO worth it! I do recommend getting there a bit before 8pm to scope out and pick the options you want before most people come and grab the good stuff. LOVE getting the onigiris and sushi boxes. Their sushi boxes come in either one or two types of rolls / sashimi. They also have a breadth of hot foods, ranging from miso soup, to takoyakis, to rice bowls. Overall, can't complain for their sale price!!

    This is a hidden gem located in the Soho neighborhood. 50% off sushi, bentos, onigiri, and sandwiches daily after 8 pm. The pork katsu curry is delicious and has separate compartments for the curry and katsu. The spam musubi and the Japanese egg sandwich are as good as well. Service is friendly and quick. The supermarket itself is very clean and neatly organized.

    50 percent off sushi bento onigiri daily after 8pm! What a steal! Recently pass by this Japanese market and saw the sign and went right in to see the deals. Great selections of sushi even after 8pm. I got myself salmon sushi unagi bowl and 3 onigiri and total came out to $20 ! It was nice and clean inside the market, a variety of snacks and drinks, hot and cold food plus frozen food. Definitely will check it out again. Check out was fast and quick even with the abundance about of people coming in at 8pm for their deals.

    Thought I should give them another chance from last time which was seven months ago back in October 2023. Of course, they still have the awesome 50% off deals on all bentos, rice bowls, sushis, and onigiris after 8pm daily. As soon as I'd walked in, so happy to see that they've finally put in a microwave for customers to warm/heat up their food like rice bowls and miso soups. Not only that, but also the food would look fresher than before especially the rice bowls. People should've the option of being able to eat warm food right after making a purchase in my opinion. I'm just really glad that they've finally decided to add in that feature which will not only benefit everyone in the future but also the staff and us customers. Ambiance wise is like your typical deli/grocery store but a whole lot cleaner and brighter.

    A relatively enormous Chinese supermarket, HK supermarket is your one-stop shop for pretty much any…read moregroceries you could think of. You'll need to park your personal carts at the front. Packaged goods are on the basement floor. Meats are to the left, produce is at the front, and drinks and sauces are to the back. Prices are quite reasonable although I've noticed that most American products are slightly more expensive. They do offer grabber tools to help you reach higher shelved products, which is nice. I'd definitely recommend HK Supermarket due to its excellent inventory. Just remember to come before it closes since it usually shuts down around 7-8pm.

    Have to update my review, which is getting old. Afraid this place is simply not as good as it used…read moreto be. Over the years it has gotten more crowded and filthier. The prices, which once were the big lure, are also longer quite as good as they were. As some here have noted, they engaged in outright price-gouging during the COVID pandemic, which I found to be obnoxious. But then the quality of the vegetables steadily declined. Perhaps it was a bad supplier or whatever. And they weren't as cheap as they used to be. The service, while never good, has turned rude, and worse at the fish counter. My old fish store on Grand closed so I started going here for fish. At first I didn't mind when "locals" were waited on ahead of me, but frankly it became irritating after a time. I'm not sure it's legal, to be honest. And the prices of fish are not as good, a buck more expensive per pound, than other fish merchants. The rat i saw on my last visit clinched it for me. Goodbye, Hong Kong Supermarket.
