    This is one of the smaller HMarts but they do have a food court here! They've got Tours les Jours, a ramen shop stall, and a couple other stalls. I find that the HMarts in the city like this one or the Brookline one price their items a bit higher than the bigger locations such as Burlington or Quincy. Great place to go if you're looking for fresh produce & Asian snacks. Highly recommend getting their premade banchan. Love the japchae, seaweed salad, and tofu. Good amount of parking in the back and some meter parking spots on the street.

    Pros: - Convenient Location: Easy to access. - Neat and Orderly: Products are generally well-organized and mostly in their designated places. - Great selection of production. Cons: - Improper Food Storage: Fresh Sun noodles, which were stored in the refrigerated section. The temperature in this area was clearly too high, even for refrigerated foods. I also found mold on several packs of Sun noodles. I also noticed pork meat that were prominently displayed on the shelves, the day of expiration weren't fresh with dark color, again indicating improper temperature. - Unprofessional Checkout Experience:The cashiers were chatting loudly with each other during the checkout process, which detracted from the customer service experience. Conclusion: While the store is convenient, and generally tidy, the presence of improperly stored food is troubling. I hope the management addresses these issues promptly to ensure a pleasant shopping experience for everyone.

    As you enter you have an inviting food court with Paris Baguette on the left and curry and ramen options on the right. The aisles are clean, the produce looks fresh, and there are the usual HMart offerings helpfully organized. Staff is helpful.

    I absolutely love H Mart! It's so fun exploring the store and looking for different sauces and ingredients. My absolute favorite is the prepared foods area, where they've got tons of amazing options. I've never actually tried any of the restaurants at the front of the store, but they have a few different spots and they always seem to be busy! H Mart in itself is an experience. The location is awesome, right in the middle of Central Square. Sometimes I'll stop by just to grab one or two things, but it's not really the type of place I'd go to for my essentials. I do think the prices are a bit high and there aren't too many options for some staple grocery items.

    Since I was here to eat dinner at Go Go Curry, I decided to buy some drinks and snacks before heading back to my hotel. There's the MBTA Central Square Station very nearby if you don't have a car. I found the selection of drinks and prepared food to be a bit lacking compared to other H Marts that I've visited. The prices were pretty standard for the area.

    It's a small store but it has what I need! There's a large selection in the fruit section and leads to an even larger pre-made section to supplement the shopping trip. I like that the shelves are frequently stocked with fresh items. I even found out that they have fresh onigiri albeit a bit expensive at $3.99. The snack section is pretty impressive too. They carry many Korean favorites and some other Asian country snacks. My favorite section is definitely the frozen dumpling aisle. They have so much variety and always have my favorite brands!

    This ain't it, fam probably my most disappointing asian grocery experience since coming to Boston. It's a very small store, and I was SHOCKED at the prices I saw compared to the quality. Almost all the fresh produce, especially the herbs, were very wilted and everything was so expensive! Pears were $8 EACH--I have never seen them go for this high, and I don't think these pears will magically cure my ailments. The kimchi selection was ok, also fairly expensive and the prepared foods looked like they had been sitting out for a couple days. The Paris Baguette in front is also weirdly expensive compared to others I've been to, but not sure if they're associated with each other. Sigh, sad that I have to go all the way to Quincy or Chinatown for my Asian groceries, but let me repeat myself, this ain't it.

    If you're looking for Asian groceries/snacks, Hmart is the place to go! They've got everything from fresh fruits to to-go meals, including kimbap and **glass noodles**. This location is a bit more pricey compared to the Quincy Hmart. Parking is quite difficult especially in the evenings or on weekends. There's now an extended lot across Norfolk street, but it fills up quickly. The regular lot right outside the store is metered. Overall rating: 8/10

    Shopping Asian markets is always fun. I love looking through mystery items (to Americans ) and discovering new products. I bought 7 pounds of kimchi for my father and stopped into the French bakery for some truly delicious desserts. 10 out of 10

    Pre-cut fruits section - luvv it.

    This is a solid H Mart location. Parking is less than ideal but the store itself is well stocked with lots of products and good service.

    Had a great experience getting grab-and-go premade foods from this HMart!…read more Of what we got, the highlight was the crab cakes. It was more of an egg omelet cooked with some crab rather than a lump of mostly crab meat, but it was soft, savory, and delicious. The kimbap was also delicious and was restaurant quality for less than restaurant prices. Unlike the Central Square location, this HMart does not have a Paris Baguette inside or a seating area in the front, so you'll need to take your grab-and-go items somewhere else to eat. The variety of items was about the same though, with premade korean foods, premade sushi and sashimi, and many aisles of Asian frozen foods, produce, and packaged foods. I would definitely come back here again!

The location is prime and this is such a great addition to Davis Square. This supermarket had lots of food, drink, and skincare options. Like other Hmarts, they also carry typical brands and I found everything I needed just fine despite worrying it wouldn't have everything because it was slightly smaller. It was pretty packed when I went during lunch but checkout didn't take too long. There's a promotion where you can get a free mug if you're a member with the option to get a kimbap packet or strawberry milk for $1 if you spend over $50. Everything was fresh, clean and service was quick! Staff was at every corner and everyone was helpful.

    My company ordered some platter from Stop & Shop for a Townhall we were holding in Somerville. to…read moremy surprise, platters were fabulous. we had about 30 men and only spent about $300 to feed everybody, actually, we had too much food. we ordered four platters of sandwiches some wraps and some on sub rolls that were cut obviously for a platter. we also had fruit trays and vegetable trays three of each. All the platters looked fabulous. The sandwiches were actually stuffed with meat and cheese and vegetables. As for the fruit and the veggies, the platter with super fresh. I think I found my new place to go for inexpensive big platters. They're worth every penny. The great thing about being at Stop & Shop picking up these platters we also were able to get a bunch of sodas, plates, plastic knives, and forks, etc. one stop shopping. As with All stopping shops, they have a large parking lot so parking is not a problem. I'm not sure of the cleanliness of the store as I did not enter. They were ordered on the phone and others picked up the platters. But all the Stop & Shop that I have gone in uphold a supermarket cleanliness. Anyway, I would definitely suggest if you want to get a platter for $30 or $40 or $50 to feed a few friends during a football game or a family get together. This is the place.

    Star Market and I have a long history together. One of my greatest regrets from my first year…read moreliving in Cambridge was that I didn't have the Star Market app. I could have been saving so much money! I could have known when the shrimp sales would happen instead of checking in person every day! But hindsight is 20/20, and I'm happy to be a loyal user of the app today. Yes, Star Market is on the more expensive side for most things. I will usually go elsewhere (Trader Joe's, Costco, Hmart Burlington) for necessities that are overpriced at Star Market. BUT their weekly ads and app-exclusive deals can be amazing, and you can get ridiculously cheap or free things. 25 cent 5lb bag of potatoes or pack of blueberries? Free kimchi with the Saturday Sampler? 67c/lb stone fruits? Whenever something I want is on sale (or free) at Star Market, I stock up. Especially during shrimp sales (it goes down to $4.97/lb, so I wait for that). And there's usually at least one good deal in produce so we're never lacking. So yeah, Star Market is expensive if you're not using the app and buying everything from there. But if you use the app to plan out exactly what great deals you'll take advantage of, it can really enhance your food supply. This location itself is spacious and nice, and I've always had a good experience interacting with employees. I always use self-checkout which works just fine. I would also recommend going earlier in the day for produce (especially if it's on sale), because usually at the end of the day only the beat up stuff is left (I'm looking at you, jalapenos).

    I am extremely dissatisfied with this location's online shopping experience, customer service,…read moredelivery, and the frequent technical issues with the app. My experiences at the Porter Square Star Market have been consistently disappointing. When orders are mishandled, management has not provided effective assistance or solutions. But having a customer have to wait 7 business days to receive a refund, but you don't know this is the only funds that a customer has (money-wise, EBT, etc.). The Star Market app has ongoing technical issues, including frequent glitches, incorrect address selection, and problems with item substitutions. This is why it's hard for a customer to trust your app. These issues have persisted for over a year, resulting in orders being delivered to the wrong addresses. When I have contacted the store for assistance, staff have not taken responsibility or provided effective support, which is frustrating given the time invested in shopping. The process of using Uber and DoorDash for delivery is inefficient, often requiring customers to cancel and restart their orders, which is inconvenient and reflects poorly on the company. Star Market should address the app's technical issues, enhance customer service and delivery processes, and ensure customers receive timely support when problems occur. Additionally, policies with third-party delivery services like Uber and DoorDash should be revised to provide greater flexibility for shoppers.
