Want all the Chinese and Japanese ingredients that uou need? Great prices on produce especially asian veggies and great meat prices you should definitely help out. Also, even though the hot bar has raised the price it is still a great deal and the workers here are very inviting. Store is well laid out although sometimes it is hard to find things. read more

We decided to stop in MD Oriental Market on our way to another location as it was right there where we're stopped at a light and had never been there before. Ben is always on the lookout for new varieties of ramen so we try to check out as many as possible. Walking in, you could tell the place was pretty big so we started on one side and made our way around. They have a fresh food or hot food area, drinks seafood, proteins, produce, ect. Ben got super excited when he was walking down the beverage aisle that on one side had beers and saki, but also on the other side there were drinks that he recognized from when he spent two weeks in Seoul. Like super excited. He snapped a picture to send to his friend that he was there with and then picked up a flavor he said he drink nonstop while there. When we reached the ramen aisle, he took his time to look at all the different brands and flavors to see what he had tried before. Or what was new to him or just simply new flavors by companies he already liked. This is definitely something that he loves, and I just try to indulge him with. He mentioned that the prices were cheaper than other locations so I can see that in our future , we will be visiting here more often. read more

Wow! This place is huge with a warehouse feel. It was a lot of fun exploring all things oriental. This place has sushi, housewares, swimming fish, frozen DUMPLINGS and everything else you can imagine. I will be back and continue my exploration into Asia Cuisine. read more

This is a huge Chinese/Asian grocery store. It reminded me of an old Safeway due to its layout and signage. The first thing I noticed was how old, outdated and dirty the store was. We got there around 6:40pm and their hot food section was closed off. They did have a lot of prepackaged hot food in containers of protein, vegetables and noodles and prices were very cheap. They also had pre made sushi rolls with really good prices. After looking at the filthy lobster and Dungeness crab tanks, I was really turned off and lost all desire to purchase anything or look anymore. It seems like a pretty popular Asian grocery store, just not for me. read more

Everything you can imagine and more for Oriental food needs. We walked in looking for one item and walked aisle upon aisle of exploring and if you can imagine it they have what you need. We had just finished eating elsewhere and will plan on eating at their deli buffet what looked delicious for food to go. The bakery section looked like it had a desert in my near future. Definitely will return - read more

I really love this Asian Grocery, everyone is so friendly here, the service is tops. The first time I came in, I bought an adorable little bamboo plant. The Asian lady that sold it to me, we had a lovely conversation about bamboo plants & several other topics. Just the most beautiful, kind & super sweet human. The second time I came I got some food off the hot deli. "You can Pick 3 items." The food is very good & a great value. There is a little self serve "dine in" cafe room "The Black Dragon" where you can sit & eat. The servers in the hot deli are even more fabulous. Moi had a long long conversation about all the foods with them. They don't have chicken wings every day. Just some days. And it's random, so you just have to check daily if you want chicken wings. And they are freakin delicious. The giant fried prawns are amazeballs also. The other thing that they have on the hot deli that I love is the Hot & Sour soup. Theirs has mushrooms, tofu & black fungus in it. Fabulous :)... And of course they have the Chinese roasted duck, crispy pork belly & chinese BBQ pork. They are all incredible but the duck they sell here is amazeballs. I eat a lot of duck, make a lot of duck also but I eat a lot of Chinese Duck from the markets, Dallas, OKC, Pensacola, none of them compare to the Roasted Duck here. The Duck here is A MUST ORDER. Amazeballs. You must try the Roasted Duck here. The bad news is, the store has a slight foul odor, as per the fresh seafood area & the Sushi bar here sucks. The sushi they sell here is not my jam. Sorry, but the menu sucks. They don't even have a simple Avocado roll, salmon skin roll on the menu or a simple yellowtail roll. Womp Womp. Skip the Sushi :( However, this well stocked Asian Grocery store does have all the fresh asian veggies, asian greens, sprouts, noods, everything you need to whip up Asian foods, they even have 2 whole isles full of Asian cooking pots, tools, dishes, chopsticks etc., When I was there last, I wanted to purchase some new wood chopsticks & even though I can speak some Chinese I can't read it, so I asked the Asian lady at the front to translate the package for moi, as I was looking for real wood chopsticks not plastic or colored/dyed ones. Anyhoo, she took her time, was very patient, we read over a couple packs till we found the real wood ones that I wanted. She even ask a couple other ladies to translate it also to make sure we got the correct ones. Every time I have been here the service has been just incredible! Which brings me to why I'm writing this review in the first place. Over the weekend, I was in the store looking for stuff when I left my car keys somewhere in the store. I ran around looking for them, couldn't find them, so I went up to the ladies that helped me with the chopsticks, deli foods, bamboo plants etc., They quickly start talking together & she says, "oh yes, we have your keys" and she waves me over to the service desk where the other lady that helped me has them in her hands waving at me smiling with the biggest lovely smile. "Thank You so very much for the incredible service, finding my keys, helping me pick the baby bamboo, helping me get the right chopsticks. Thank you for your true kindness & over the top service. I really appreciate you." Will Return. Recommend. read more

Loads of variety here: scallion floss roll, pandan cake, pineapple bun, taro pastry, egg yolk pastry, mung bean cake... Bread heaven for sure! They've got cooked foods too: roast duck, BBQ pork, roast pork, beef tendon, duck wings, chicken feet. The taro paste is smooth and creamy. The bottom of the mung bean cake is a bit thick and dry. read more

This place is so much more than a Chinese grocery store! We drive 30 minutes to this store on a regular basis for authentic buns , baked goods and meats that you cannot get at Publix. The bakers who make these delicacies take great pride in their work and are genuinely happy whenever I buy their tarts. The store is everything you would expect from a genuine Chinese market. We love it! My sons enjoy filling their bellies with hotdogs wrapped in pastry before they hit the aisles and aisles of their favorite Chinese drinks, crackers, candies, noodles, and chips. They have flavors of Lays chips you won't find anywhere else. My mother law fills the cart with Chinese veggies, fruits and teas. Prices are great and variety is vast. Come hungry! read more

Let me just say this is one of my favorite Asian stores to go to. When I walk in it feels like I've been transported to another world. I am mixed with Asian, so I feel at home, the ambiance feels like childhood nostalgia. I use to go to the Asian stores with my family in Colorado and Arizona all the time. I miss that so this brings that joy everytime I come in. The pastry chefs are so nice, they let me pick what I'd like fresh off the pastry rack every time. I feel so spoiled and they also recommend different ones for me to try. Let me warn you though you hace to go before 10:30-11 am, or you miss out on the good buns. read more

It has everything you want and need front a asian market. Been coming here for years. Love it as much now as then.

We were visiting from California and was told that Pinellas Park was where to find the Asian community. On the way to a pho restaurant, we saw this market and immediately took a u-turn to go check it out. I would say this was comparable to west coast 99 Ranch Market. It's huge, has all and everything you see in a west coast market. One thing that I came across and I didn't noticed in west coast, were the different chip flavors from overseas! Lays chip brand had meat flavors like steak and braised pork! Thank you east coast market because now that I'm back in west coast, I've been going to each store and checking out their snack aisle. Each store has different variety of Lays from China and Thailand. read more

Really popular place for buying oriental food but the place was packed on Saturday with last minute shoppers. Store was very crowded but we found everything we needed. We got the last two bags of XL rice noodles, not sure why it is a very hard item to find. Lines move fast but but there are about four or five people per line and there are only five cashiers. read more

If you're on a rush, this place will have all Asian hot food for your belly instead of waiting at the restaurant. Love their selections and friendly owner. We ordered 3 entree: char siu ribs, soya chicken, cherry chicken with fried rice. All so good, meat extremely tender and juicy. Easy enough to eat for a hungry toddler! All cost like $11 for 3 of us. Very recommended this place! read more

I always come here when I need ingredients to make some of my favorite Asian dishes. They keep a variety of items in stock and usually I can find most of my ingredients here. It's a little hard to get help sometimes as they don't always understand you and sometimes there is a language barrier. The store is kept pretty organized and I can usually figure it out on my own. This is always my preferred location for any of my needs for my ingredients or even cravings for snacks I grew up with. read more

This is my favorite MD Oriental Market. I have been to the other locations in Tampa & Brandon. This use to be a Sweet Bay/Winn Dixie so it is very spacious and organized. There's a lot of options here as well as a good size take and go warm food area, bakery, meat and seafood area and freezer section. They also have the other items in the middle for home and for non fridge items. I like the produce section here and always have to pick up my favorite baby Bok Choy. MD Oriental Market is the biggest Asian market in the area. There are bigger ones in Orlando. This one is pretty good for the area. read more

I got food poisoning from eating their sushi. I should have known it wasn't safe because they don't take care of their fish tanks right next to the sushi bar. It smelled truly awful so maybe that's my fault for trusting the quality lol. Please don't repeat my mistake No employees talk to you here, even when I was checking out, the cashier was talking to someone else which was fine, just a heads up if you plan on going There were a lot of cool items here you can't find in American grocery stores and with reasonable prices I enjoyed wondering around looking at everything, but I'm not sure I'll be going back to this specific MD Oriental Market for fear of bathroom flashbacks. read more

It should not surprise you that this is the best value Asian food in all of the Bay Area. It's cheap, huge portions, and wonderful! Best egg rolls in town hands down! It closes at 5pm I think, I got burned once trying to get to dinner here and it was closed when I walked in at 6pm. read more

We went to the hot bar first cause we where hungry I said can we have noodles, orange chicken, and bbq pork. He gave us noodles, bbq pork and gave us honey/sesame chicken not orange chicken. but I didn't notice it in till we sat down and started eating. I'm giving the hot bar 3 stars. Next shopping was nice and interesting seeing all the international food. So overall I'm giving the shopping part 5 stars. Also I saw the biggest fruit i've ever seen a jackfruit that thing was massive. Overall the hole experience was 4.0 stars. read more

I had to see this place while I'm here temp for a few months. I was in a mission to find a Filipino item. It is huge they have bakeries, food court, it remind me a lot of huge Asian store in the West coast like seafood city, Ranch 99. So we got lunch before I went shopping knowing I need time to look. Me and my friend had 2 entry w/ each had 2 item and 1 a pork item for my husband to take home. We checkout and it came to $40 WTH! it was expensive. By the time I got done I was disappointed cuz I didn't find the most important item in my list it's the Filipino peanut butter they didn't have it. So it's okay for me off to find another Asian store. read more

Pretty large variety of imported asian stuff to choose from. Unfortunately the staff are extremely rude and unprofessional, when checking out they don't acknowledge you at all. Not even a simple "Hi" or even "Your total is.." Nope instead they talk to each other in different languages. Not the respectable customer service im used to. Won't be back because of this. read more

MD Oriental Market is located in the same plaza as Kung Fu Tea and Pete and Shorty's, with plenty of parking. I stopped by this market this evening with my husband, about an hour and 20 minutes before closing, looking for hot food to buy for dinner. Since I saw that a someone had made mention that this market does sell hot food (thank you my fellow yelp members for your reviews), which is available all the way to the left side, once you enter the store. We ended up purchasing soy sauce chicken for $5.99 (prior to tax and yes you have to pay tax since this is a prepared item). The chicken was pretty good by the way. This market in general has plenty of great Asian snacks, selection of noodles, drinks and clean produce section (also ended up getting a few heads of lettuce to add to our dinner this evening at our vacation rental). I was surprised that the cashier was friendly and spoke excellent English. Definitely a nice large Asian market for those that are looking for specific ethnic food items, as it seems that the Asian scene in Tampa/ St. Petersburg is rather small (I guess I have been spoiled with the selection of Asian markets, bakeries, eateries and tea houses back at home in Los Angeles). If I lived around this area, I would most likely be a regular. read more

My parents and I were visiting from out of town and my cousins took us here bc they were buying ingredients to make dinner plus stocking up on other supplies! Coming from New Orleans my parents and I were blown away at how huge this Asian grocery store is! Plus we were excited when we saw some Filipino products line Goldilocks and bought the ube hopia and pork hopia! We also saw Mama Sita products too which was nice! Unfortunately we came too late to see their hot food but my Mom was impressed with some of the prepared food that was already packaged! My cousin bought different kinds of meat, watermelon, papaya, garlic, peppers, a huge bag of rice, caramel and butter popcorn, pizza flavored chips, canned coconut milk, canned quail eggs and tons of other things! The cashier was friendly and didn't blink an eye when my mom and uncle were both trying to pay for everything! Hehe :) Happy asian food shopping! read more

Lots of products, help is a little scarce in the isles if you are having difficulty locating an item

I love they have the lunch menu between 2 entree or 3 entree. The lunch staff might be pushy but this gives the place character. They have great deals on sushi. I love the bakery section with their egg tarts. The Asian bbq is on point and I go only for their beef tendon. This is my must stop if I go by the area. The place is clean and there must be a big Asian community to have a great market in the area. read more

Market was sufficient, but was not as extensive as I thought. Bakery: Formosa company; had a great selection of cakes, pastries and cookies. Mooncakes: I wanted to find the new variety of small ones, but they only had the big square ones. Nothing extraordinary that I couldn't get at home. So I opted for some dried mushrooms, soup spoons with hooks and a couple of metal streaming plates. read more

Best and biggest Asian supermarket around St Pete area! Lots and lots of authentic Asian grocery items from ramen to dumplings to duck eggs to seafood to kimchi to all sorts of seasonings and spices. They also have a hot food section and sushi. Never ate from the hot bar but the sushi was very good and fresh. Prices aren't that cheap because it has gone up due to the inflation everywhere but it is still reasonable. I always come here when I want to make Chinese food or hot pot at home. You can pretty much find any Asian item here since this store is huge and has many many inventory. Tip: try to go on a weekday or right when it opens on the weekend because it does get very busy and the checkout lines are long/slow. read more

Absolutely love this market but the market says it closes at 8pm. I had to get one thing and knew exactly where it was, got there and the guy 15 minutes before they closed wouldn't let us go in to grab it and told me no I don't care and blocked the door. If a business says 8pm that means no one can walk in after 8. Not kick people out before 8. read more

Huge MD Oriental market with a great variety of produce and dried goods. I usually go to the Hillsborough county locations, but I was in St. Pete, so I thought I'd check this one out in my search for dragon fruit (they had three varieties -- classic, golden, and purple). I was there on a Sunday afternoon, so it was pretty busy, and the check out lines were slow. That's pretty standard for most grocery stores, though. My issue is that the place was pretty filthy. The bathroom was atrocious. Now, I haven't been in the bathroom of an Asian market for a long time, so maybe it was no worse than the other MD Oriental markets or Oceanic, but it was offensively unkept, with piles of garbage on the floor of the stalls and no seat covers in the holder. read more
