I love their churros (reminds me of Disney world) and their frozen tamales I can steam at home. I don't have to sweat over the store to enjoy theses yummy goodies. This place has been in this plaza for years and they're definitely a must go to place if you're looking hard to find ingredients. Also the owners are very approachable and knowledgeable. Lastly , if you're looking for cheap spices, they place sells them for 1/4 of the price in big box stores! I don't go anywhere else after finding out about this grocery store.

Lucky for the residents who live above. It may be a zoo here but like T&T without the shopping carts bumping & swerving all over the place. Got that street-level feel but indoors, no cold ;) But the washrooms here are pretty grody ;(. Just make sure you lift your pants when you walk in here, it's almost by habit now.

I like this place. It's in the Crystal Mall. It's a pretty tight place and when it gets busy it…read morecan get a bit uncomfortable. They have a wide variety of produce which is hit and miss sometimes. But the prices are great compared to other places. I have always found the service here pretty good. Even though their English is not that good they are generally pretty friendly, especially compared to the other place around the corner Good Friend Supermarket. They are downright rude! Anyways, for decent produce and good prices, I think it's pretty good. Parking in Crystal Mall is the worst, there is some pay street parking on Willingdon and Kingsway at certain times............

Total chaos, how a grocery supermarket should be if you want fresh veggies and fruits, come here on…read moreany given day, especially the busy times and you will wonder to yourself, ¨why am I doing this?" you know why, for fresh produce, that is why. I have been coming here for more than a decade and honestly it is not like there is no competition in Crystal mall, there is in the market with multiple vendors, but it seems like this one in the middle is a favorite to most. On any given day you could be lining up past the meat butcher outside just to pay for your grab of the day, but no matter, the women who work the till here are machines, they calculate fast and bag your stuff fast cause they know the next person is waiting to pay and ready to GTFO. If you have the patience, and are willing to venture here like all who know are, you will see way better greens than what you would get at the big supermarket and lower prices. From the assortment of Chinese greens they have, everything is truly fresh, and clean.... you still have to wash your vegetables but what I noticed is that there is not much soil on them here, speaks to the level of care whoever is supplying them these leafy essentials. Near the till they also sell freshly made rice rolls, ready to be taken home and steamed (or pan fried). Even though it looks like chaos, it is actually pretty orderly, and a regular stop for me and the family when home cooking is in order.

Vibrant red cherries and the tomatoes had markings like it had come out of a neighbor's garden and would be bursting with flavor. This was nice after visiting another market in New West where they're trying to pass off imported carrots as locally grown when they weren't. Labels were showing. Inside the store it was well organized. Frozen foods, Asian items and fresh meat lined the aisles. Around 1:00 pm today, it was busy! I snagged the last parking spot, yay me! It must be a popular place and I can see why. Just don't expect customer service to be as good as the produce and your visit will be fine.

I have found them to be friendly, helpful, respectful to a diverse array of people (and attitudes) and their very busy activity is an obvious fruit of their approach. They will listen to their customers to inform their future decisions. I am grateful that they continue despite walmart and other goliath big boxes grinding smaller businesses into the ground!! I have been a customer for 30 years and continue to do so because they offer a special and community environment - a rarity these days!!

This is definitely a gem for those of you that is looking for a decent Chinese meat market. My…read morefamily member and I are somewhat of a regular to this store if we are ever shopping in Crystal Mall and needing some meat to make stew or other delicious meals out of it. They sell primarily raw fresh meat and a few frozen products as well and the prices are all pretty fair for what it is. They also sell a small handful of non meat products like instant ramen noodles, Bull Head BBQ sauce, a couple of canned items, frozen shrimps, etc. So this definitely is a good place to check out if you want a decent butcher shop for some fresh meat. PS. This place only accepts cash, no credit or debit.

This is one of the big boys of the market that deals in the meat selection. It really does not matter what time of day you are here, it is busy, with line ups for meat, and bones (for their Chinese soups). Nothing is cooked here, it is the raw deal and just another slew of places to spend some time in when you are looking for some necessities of cooking. Also it's not a far walk from the smaller meat market that is just a couple stalls up to compare prices and quality.

They offer a variety of…read morefresh local vegetables, fruits, organic vegetables/fruits, potted plants, flowers, potted orchids, and grocery items. I was impressed by their large variety of vegetables including Asian veggies, & some I hadn't even seen before. Their prices are reasonable and look decent. I bought a watermelon which I would avoid. It was mushy on the inside. It's not only at this place but I found it to be the same everywhere. It's because it's overripe. They are located right across from the Richmond Nature Park with free parking out front. They even have shopping carts to lighten the load. A bonus! The place was clean and service was okay. A great place to grab that missing ingredient to create a meal or buy flowers for a special occasion. It's rare to find a market that sells a lot of local produce & fruit. All I can say is support local farmers and businesses!

They sell small plants and herbs for your garden in the back. They also sell huge bags of potatoes in several varieties, onions, hot peppers, Hungarian peppers, dates, eggs, turmeric and more.

Parking is plentiful in the lot in the front (back?) of the building, as well as on the street. The building clearly used to be 3 different businesses, as the layout is really bizarre. There are 3 large "rooms", joined by a corridor. To be honest, this place is probably quite the fire hazard to newcomers. Thank goodness somebody had the sense to stick a large map on the wall. Some doorways between the sections would be nice. With that out of the way, there are 3 sections. Product, meat/aquarium (yes, aquarium), and dried goods. Pricing is in line with other places. The place is quite popular with locals, which tells you everything you need to know. As with other similar businesses, there is a hot food section as well. I picked up some takeout and it was mediocre. Does the job, but nothing special. I imagine this place serves the local market quite well. Wouldn't make a special trip out, but good to know the place exists.
