    Barrio Fiesta brand - spicy bagoong
    Vernee D.

    I love a good Asian grocery store; the smell of seafood and super fragrant herbs. Is it a great combination? No, but you can change nostalgia (lol!) This is great Asian grocery store especially if you are looking for specific items. I come in from specific pinoy condiments and specific vegetables. They have a great pinoy area, but my latest visit really put things into perspective. The worker there was very helpful and let me know they haven't received any new shipments of the banana ketchup and bagoong for a year! Great location, and definitely quick service

    I love living in this area because I have so many ethnic markets to choose from. Mekong wins for me because I love their meat and seafood section. I go pick out some fish have them cleaned and fried for dinner while i shop. 15 min later delicious dinner and so many fish to choose from to try. Today I ordered 2 Red Tilapia and 1 Bass. I used the #6 Fry and had it cleaned. I've had them fry Smelts, Mullet Fish, Parrot Fish and even had Geoduck!

    Impressive Malaysian curry paste selection, some even difficult to find in Malaysia and some we have never found in the states

    This is one of the best Asian supermarkets in the Phoenix area. We really missed Asian supermarkets coming from the Bay Area and SoCal, but are so glad to have found this one. This grocery store might actually be better than all our other grocery stores in SoCal and the Bay Area. Even brought relatives here that were visiting (we needed food for them) and they loved it. They were impressed with the variety of Malaysian food in particular. Also impressive range of Indonesian and Thai food. We had some relatives that had just returned from a months long trip to Asia and they were shocked to find some brands they were used to there featured in this market at such reasonable prices, because they haven't been able to find it at reasonable prices in the Bay Area. There were some brands here that are even difficult to find in Malaysia. Some things are slightly more expensive, but most seem reasonable at least for Malaysian food. The produce is also fresh and they have more variety than Ranch 99, for example, in the area. I still think H Mart across the street has fresher produce, but honestly this is good especially at lower prices. They have quite a diverse group of employees. I had to ask one of them for help in locating specific noodles and they were very helpful. The plaza is also interesting and has some good food shops.

    This place is in a small Asian Plaza located on SW corner of Dobson and Main St. As it turns out it is located across Dobson from H Mart. In the Plaza it is located on the SW side. There are many Asian restaurants and takeouts including boba and sandwiches. They have quite a selection of all types of Asian food and seafood. There is a lot of parking for the plaza and it is much less crowded than H Mart. It is slightly more expensive in the one thing I was looking for, the S&B sauce (see photo). It is very hard to find in AZ. Sometimes you cannot get parking at H Mart so this is a good nearby substitute.

    I've bought from this market before a few times when I'm in Mesa. Last year they had free open wifi. Now you'll need a password just to use free wifi which is bad. I was looking for individual Chinese Moon Festival Mooncakes in individual bakery items from the local bakeries. They don't have it even after Moon Festival. They only got the tin set of 4 or more which will cost about $26 to $40+ price range. I still give them 5 stars because not only because they have a food court but all the items I need are here in this market. Very convenient from the Light Rail crossing from H Mart. Really worth it. I love the choices of places to eat inside.

    Went to Mekong to get salmon bellies.. I usually get them there.. BUT... are they cheating the customers now??? All the packs that were labeled salmon bellies were actually other parts or the salmon.. like part of the meat where the tail area is; a slice of the meat where the head is.. then they sell it for almost $8... I still got it and tried to give the benefit that there may be at least some parts of the belly mixed with it.. but not one portion!!! Then the palm liver spread is selling for almost $10 Wee sells it for $6 I went to H Mart & they had real salmon belly which Is a few dollars cheaper than Mekong selling a mislabeled item or intentionally making money out of cheating their customers!!!

    Entrance

    Every time I have been here, I have a hard time with the odor that you smell as soon as you get near the entrance. I know it is due to seafood sold here, but it still hits me in the face every time resulting in me shopping for less time as I want to leave the smell. This is a store you can get lost in, which makes it a deadly combo as I don't want to be immersed in the odor. A catch 22 though I do like some of the products I've only found here. Definitely a place to check out if you are looking for imported speciality times from overseas. The service is always friendly and a fairly easy process to check out to be on your way with your purchased items.

    This market is right down the street from me - it is definitely my go to when I am craving Bao Buns or Asian inspired dish. They have extensive selection of meats, produce and of course specialty ingredients I cannot find at the standard grocery store. I have found their produce to be extensive, fresh and cheaper than many of the other local stores. That also follows suit with their meat market. It is a great option for fresh seafood and they offer options from bone in, bone out, descaled and everything in between. We have also taken advantage of their dishware suggestion with endless options and specialty dishware, it is very fun to peruse. As to be expected, the smell is overwhelming, but that obviously contributes to their large fresh fish market, but just something to be aware of. The aisles are also endless, so prepare to explore a bit or take some time orienting yourself with the lay out. Lastly, service is great. Cashiers are always super friendly. They also have a Yelp discount code as of 3/23 - worth checking out!

    These are huge! $1.99/pound

    Decent place to get Asian supplies. Was surprised this weekend to find fresh and huge persimmons, my favorite winter fruit on sale. Also, long missed Huy Fong Food products back in stock. Scored!!

    No I have not seen any motorized carts

    Do they have octupus?

    Check frozen seafood aisle. I know they have a mixed seafood bag that includes octopus, they might also have separate bags of frozen octopus (and/or squid). Or call and ask.

    They usually do but it changes all the time

    Do they sell the coconut buns and the chicken buns?what days is bakery open and do they bake daily? Thank you!

    I haven't specifically seen the bursting boba, but they have mochi for sure. Tea Snow outside the market serves all types of boba.

    Do they have those custard/red bean pancakes everyday or just the weekend? I know lee lee used to have them on the weekends only, not sure if it's the same here ...

    Mostly just on the weekend. But you can go over to AAOzzy Bakery and they make them there

    To they accept ebt?

    Yes, they sure do.

    They have a small selection of East Indian items such as spices and a few mixes. I would say that they have about 12 feet of grocery shelving dedicated to Indian items.… Read more

    Where can I find fresh ramen noodles in Mesa AZ area?

    If you haven't found them at Mekong, you may find them at Lee Lee's or Asiana. In the realm of prepared noodles, they're trendy right now, so pretty much anywhere! Try Nan Zhou Hand Drawn Noodle House for some authentic flavors.

This one is fairly large but I've only stuck to browsing a few aisles of interest, so not sure what all they have. I did notice they have products from a variety of countries including those in South Asia like India and Pakistan. I come for the rice crackers and mochi, and the rice crackers (Bin Bin brand) are a good price and satisfy my cravings. I like to share them with friends (family don't care for them - too sweet). The mochi flavors have been hit or miss: I grabbed the maple pancake one on my last visit and it tasted as expected, good stuff. Some of the other flavors have been lackluster, depending on the brand. I'm sure they have lots of other items to purchase but I stick to the snacks for now. I always park in the spots to the right of the market and haven't had issues. There's also a great boba spot within walking distance, so that's another place I like to frequent. Def recommend checking out Lee Lee's!
