Skyfoods is one of my more preferred Asian supermarkets because of its relative spaciousness and…read morecleanliness compared to other places selling similar items. They also carry a number products and brands less commonly found in other Chinese supermarkets. This Skyfoods is one of a few locations, two in Flushing and one in Elmhurst; this one sits on the first floor of the Shops at Skyview on College point Avenue in downtown Flushing. Walking in from the main entrance to the shops this is kinda hidden towards the back of the building. It's nice that it doesn't usually get too crowded. They give free parking in the structure if you shop and buy over $40. What's nice similar to some other larger Asian grocery stores (Hmart, Mitsuwa) is they sometimes do sampling stations on weekends where they showcase a handful of products. My last purchase of a box of Asian pears was because I got to try a couple pieces of sweet fruit so I felt confident in picking up a box. Aside from fresh produce, meat and seafood, dried, canned and packaged foods, they have relatively larger refrigerated foods and tea/drinks and snack sections. See pics of some interesting products. Also for example they carry some instant powdered sweet fruit (jujube, sour plum) teas here I don't find in other places, and for that reason alone I make a trip here every so often.

I'm a fan of Skyfoods in the Skyview Center mall. It's my top choice for stocking up on Asian…read moregroceries. The size of this place is impressive, with a huge selection that really makes it a one-stop shop, for Chinese and other East Asian ingredients. Stocked with a massive selection of Asian vegetables, and fruits that are difficult to find in a traditional grocery store. Greatly appreciate the quality. From fresh, leafy vegetables and mushrooms to a truly staggering variety of snacks, sauces, and noodles, their inventory is fantastic. The dedicated seafood and meat departments are also well-stocked, never saw live eel sold in a grocery store. Being inside the Skyview Center is a huge plus. It's great to be able to hit up BJ's wholesale, TJ Maxx and other stores in the same trip, and the indoor parking garage is a game-changer, especially on bad weather days. Compared to some of the other supermarkets in Flushing, Skyfoods feels noticeably cleaner and brighter. The aisles are well-organized, making it easier to find what you need. Checkout is wonderful, no chatty cashiers, just simple, polite, fast checkout! For a huge, reliable selection in a convenient location, it's a solid four stars. Tip: The hot food section is a lifesaver for a quick and affordable meal. You can get a solid lunch box combo with rice, several dishes, and soup for a great price. It's especially good earlier in the day when the food is freshest. 2nd tip: Spend $40, get 3 hours of free parking.

My fascination with Asian markets goes back decades. I quickly gathered that no visit to Flushing…read moreis complete without at least a quick sweep of Jmart. The place warrants more time than I had that day. The market is immense with a dizzying selection of items. I was amazed walking down the condiment/sauce aisle with more choices than I'd seen elsewhere. I noticed products that were new to me, like black chickens. I learned from a Google search that it's a natural genetic condition causing excessive pigmentation. Apparently the black flesh has a stronger, deeper and slightly gamey flavor with meat that's tender and juicy. Prices seemed fair, business was brisk, and I for one, will return! I'm sure some on staff speak English, but the employees I came across, did not.

JMart in Flushing is another fantastic Asian supermarket with a seemingly endless plethora of Asian…read morefood's choices. The store is clean, well organized, and surprisingly pleasant to navigate. I visited around 1:30pm and, unlike many busy markets in Flushing, the atmosphere was lively without feeling chaotic or overcrowded. Maybe i was there at the time? Their fresh produce section is extensive, seafood selection impressive, and there is an abundance of Asian snacks, sauces, noodles, frozen specialties, and hard-to-find ingredients from across Asia. Prices were also quite reasonable considering the quality and variety. This said, their tiger fish was at $54.50 a pound which is on the high end of the market. A major plus is the excellent food court, offering a wide range of delicious options perfect for a quick lunch or snack after shopping. Overall, JMart delivers a very Asian authentic shopping experience right in the heart of Flushing. This is the go to place for my mother in law.

The only reason I didn't give them a fifth star is that the fish mongers are reluctant, even unwilling, to cut a smaller piece from a filet that's already prepped for sale.

This is their second location in Queens. Their first location is in Elmhurst, and this flushing…read morelocation is huge.... Like more than twice the size of the other one. I came in today for the first time on a Saturday and it's packed with people. But because of how spacious the place is, it doesn't feel suffocating and I didn't want to tackle and elbow people. The other bonus is that the seafood market smell doesn't fill the space, making it pungent for my friend's sensitive nose In Flushing, having parking space is hands down the best thing ever... so that was my Dad's favorite part. And today there's a promotion, if you spend $300 they'll give you a box of moon cakes!! Then they have their Asian attraction of telling you to buy their supermarket gift card and offer $5 in addition to it's value. Con: they're no longer accepting AMEX in both of their supermarket locations

Welcome to Bally 868 Mini Mart. Hi my friends you're in the…read moreheart of Flushing Chinatown. I Love this little local Mini Mart. You can get so much local flavor just hanging out here a little bit. This little market is located right on Roosevelt Avenue next to where all the buses and Subways let out you can walk inside and get some roasted yams or boiled corn on the cob. Need a newspaper no problem, whatever language you are comfortable with they can accommodate here newspapers come in many different languages. And speaking of different languages the counter people here are proficient in at least 4. There's great fresh hand-picked produce on sale right in the front, also fresh pre-made salads and a selection of chilled beverages. Skip waiting at the line at the local supermarket this little mini mart has a wonderful smile for everyone. Open 7 days a week just great for busy folks that are on the go. See you there. JIM D.

Last week I purchased mangoes and it was dry and kind of sour. Yesterday I bought another one to give it another chance and it was even more dry, so I went to the lady to ask for an exchange and she admit that it was not ripe yet but asked how come I'm the only one complaining. She told me that I can't exchange the next time I choose to buy one and kept saying that I'm the only one who complains. I got so upset that I didn't even want the exchange anymore and walked away, I'm never going back there again. How can they make a mistake by selling non-ripe/low fruits and blame me for complaining? I'm baffled.

Their deli section is what makes the place. They have a really good selection of cold cuts and salads, and everything is super fresh.

Deli aside, they do have some pre-packaged stuff in the aisles, but you're not going to find great deals like you would in a regular supermarket. It's just there for convenience in case you need something quick. Overall, great little market. I would definitely recommend it!

It's perfect location because there's a parking garage. It closer to the LIE and Van Wyck so not as crazy as downtown Flushing though it's not far off. It can get a bit busy trying to get out of the parking lot but so far not too bad. As for the food all I can say they are fresh, have great prices. They might not have brands that I normally find in other Asian supermarkets but it's pretty stocked with essentials if I am in a jam and want to pick up something since I am usually around that area. Because it's a new location it's clean and new.
