Aroon Thai Market is the place to find favorite Thai delicacies and fresh produce used in authentic…read moreThai dishes in stock. Every Friday, the market hosts an exceptional outdoor produce market that is a feast for the senses. It might might bring memories of Thailand rushing back, it did for me and my Thai mother-in-law, who excitedly told me the name of her favorite veggies, and what dishes to use them in. There are veggies used in traditional U.S. dishes available as well, but we rarely see freshness like this at other markets. On Fridays there is so much business that Aroon Thai has set up an outdoor cashier, so service is as speedy as possible. Hot Tip: If you're planning on checking out the Friday Outdoor Produce Market, go early to ensure you get the best selection of fresh-made Thai goodies, rolls, and sandwiches.

Best local Asian market in the Sonoma area! Largest selection of fresh produce and ethnic groceries…read more(Korean, Thai, Indian, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese). Only con is prices aren't labeled for 90% of items but prices remain reasonable. Went in on a Friday after work, and they had Vietnamese prepared foods: -Banh cuon $5.99 - steamed rice rolls with pork and black fungus were fresh and soft. Thoughtfully packaged with veggies, pickles, jalapeños, and fried shallots all separated out. -Sweet sticky rice $4.99 - decent (a little dry) -Banh mi $7.99 - Vietnamese sandwiches supplied by Kelly's Sandwiches and Drinks The most surprising was their fresh produce piled high in baskets: -Okra -Chinese eggplant -Mint and Vietnamese mint -Perilla leaf -Mung bean sprouts -Bitter melon -Taro -Lotus root -Yucca -Ong choy/water spinach -Daikon Dry products range from: -Starches: instant ramens, vermicelli, rice, sticky rice, mung beans -Sauces: Thai curry, Indian curry, mapo tofu, chutney -Snacks: jellies, dried squid, broad bean, hello panda, pocky -Cans: lychee, coconut milk, coconut jelly, jackfruit, halo halo, red bean A coworker recommended Aroon Thai after hearing I've desperately hunted for Asian groceries at Asiana, Phnom Penh, and Kabayan. Sadly, none of the local markets offer everything in one place. Aroon Thai fills their aisles to the brim with fresh, frozen, and dried foods. From instant chai to vermicelli, it's a great one stop shop for your fridge and pantry. Happy cooking!

As other posts have made note of, this is for the BBQ and not the actual market…read more Got a tri tip sandwich and pork rib plate. The tri tip tasted like it was cooked in the microwave - absolutely zero char and the meat was a pale gray color. If I didn't order tri-tip, I would have thought it was diced pork loin cooked in a strange tomato sauce, thrown onto a dry roll. The sandwich was slightly under room temp to the touch The plate was unfortunately not better. The pork ribs as described before me also had 0 char and were covered in a dry (?) rub with the consistency of damp bread crumbs. The taste was okay, but the execution just so not hitting the mark. Beans tasted like they were simmered in tomato paste, and the Mac n cheese had split and it was mostly grease on top of a strange cheese/macaroni conglomerate. The cornbread tasted like corn tortillas that had sat in a moist prep container for hours on end -bland, slightly musty, and also mushy. Andy's is an awesome market but boy oh boy is this BBQ stand not it. Maybe it was super good at one time but what I experienced is not something I would have eaten for free, yet alone the $40ish I spent to toss into the trash shorty after. The guy working the stand was nice and friendly at least. But please do better or don't at all, it's not fair to charge this much for food this low of quality.

I have shopped at this store many times and they have a nice selection of Middle Eastern products…read more I like to cook and I find the things I need at the store. They have the best Pita bread. I have had good service from the people working there except for one older man who I think is the owner. Every time he is working there he is very grumpy looking and he glares at me like he doesn't want me there or something. I usually just ignore it, but the last time I went there he was extremely RUDE and disrespectful. I left without buying my items and I will never go back. I noticed there was another customer commenting here who noticed the same thing about this man when he shopped there. He should not be working in customer service.

I discovered Apna Bazaar about a year ago when I was looking for a place to find some Indian…read morespices and Middle Eastern ingredients. My first visit when I needed help Irene was quick to come over and showed me where the pickled turnips were. I felt quite welcome. My second visit a few weeks later I found the garam masala easily but had difficulty finding a couple of other herbs so asked the gentleman up front for assistance and he was most gracious. He found one easily but the other was a bit more difficult. He told me to finish my shopping as he searched and sure enough, a few minutes later he came over to me and gave me the Asafoetida. At checkout I mentioned that I had just gotten into Indian cinema and loved Aamir Khan, two of his films, PK and Laal Singh Chaddha (An Indian remake of Forrest Gump that was portrayed so brilliantly by Aamir Khan.) being some of my favorites. He then wrote down the name of another film for me to enjoy. And today I visited again and got everything I needed ( I love those MTR Minute meals! Just pop the packet in boiling water and in 5 minutes a delicious meal for when I am too tired to cook.) and checked out. My bag was a bit heavy and as soon as I paid Irene, she was up front today, picked it up and said she'd bring it to my car. (These days I am having mobility issues and use a cane.) I am sorry others have had a bad experience but for me I love this place. I have always gotten great service and love the selection. And I am not one to write reviews, I've written less than 10 on Yelp. Many thanks to Apna, and thank you Irene. :-) I hope I spelled your name correctly.

The whole vibe of the place is amazing and even though some would say it's not big, I for one think the size is great and the whole atmosphere is amazing and takes me back to when I visited Mexico. I will definitely be coming back and recommending this place to everyone I know. I encourage you to do the same and experience the (in my opinion) best market in all of Santa Rosa, dare I even say Sonoma County!

I cannot remember what they are but I needed them, not wanted them, so I got a bag. Those little babies melt in your mouth and pair so well with a glass of red. Yummmm!
