Mega is clearly far and away the best Asian market in the Bay area... having said that, I do have…read moresome complaints but will give it the 5 stars it deserves. Let's start with the good, or I should say best. The sashimi here is the best of any Asian market bar none. You could even say better than some Sushi restaurants (I won't name them). Even some of the newer Asian markets like T&T have disgusting sashimi... to the point you can taste the ice bc they hadn't fully defrosted it. The only nit I have is bruh... stop putting the frickin plastic sauce packets right on top of the fish. Why? Why would you do that? Stop it. Come on. Why in the actual F would you do that? Ok, I know this sounds more like complaints but I do really like Mega Mart to be clear. 2 other issues: #1. Dude... what're you guys doing with the panchan? When did you start adding so much sugar and sugaring the F out of the panchan. This is not how it should be. Old Korean grandmas are literally turning in their graves with this sacrilege. Maybe panchan sales are falling, but you can be damn sure I will never buy this again with the amount of sugar you guys add. Like why? Why 50% sugar... seriously, this panchan candy bar nonsense makes no sense! #2. What happened to organic natto? Like bruh. You only had 1 brand left that was organic. Sure I could go to Nijiya and have a choice of 2, but I'm disappointed you guys stopped carrying the only organic natto you had.

I was excited to see that they now have a "Vegan Vegetable Mandu" offering in the hot food section. I had to grab both options to test them out : Unlimeat Kimchi Mandoo and Unlimeat Vegetable Mandoo. Each package has 8 pieces and a packet of shoyu. After trying both, the kimchi version won me over a bit more. The other option is lighter in flavor, and I'm a fan of bold and spicy food. Adding the shoyu helps, but I could easily eat all the kimchi ones alone. I'm not sure I'd get them often, but I like having an option in the grab and go section for when I'm short on time and hungry. They also added some Pulmone vegan-friendly microwave dumplings to the frozen section, so I got those too. I noticed some plant-based bulgogi kimbap in the frozen section, but I decided to skip them because I'm iffy about the textures of frozen kimbap. I love when grocery stores have vegan-friendly options! I hope this means they'll start adding more vegan-friendly options in the grab and go hot food section. A tofu and veggie rice bowl would be nice!

You can find a very nice selection of goods from various countries here. Candies, nuts, pickles, spreads, frozen dumplings, butter, condiments, wine, sausages and other cured meats, cheese, baked goods, ice cream bars, a small selection of produce, canned goods and much, much more. We had just had lunch so we purchased a small cheesecake flavored ice cream bar to share and some Lebanese grilled olives to take home for later. We are for sure coming back for some frozen dumplings next time we're in the mood... they had a huge selection. Fun!

When I'm in a hurry and hungry, I usually grab the avocado rolls, veggie rolls, inari, or seaweed salad. I'm also a fan of the vegan friendly fruit jelly desserts in the refrigerated section (around the corner from the hot bar). I really wish they consistently stocked vegan Kewpie. Before I went vegan, I used to come here for the sushi, chirashi, sandwiches, hot bar, and milk bread. They also have some cool snacks in the freezer, like pizza baos and matcha ice cream.

Their pricing is very fair and there is a bit of a wait so order ahead if you can. Place an order at the register, make payment, then wait outside at the take out window with your number ticket. Service is prompt and friendly. Aside from the hot food/ deli, they've got a market of produce and other grocery items. I'm happy that the developer offered them space as I feel they are Mountain View staple. They have a good selection of international and I think Persian food products. Parking is a bit chaotic especially during busy times like during the lunch or after work times. There is some parking in front of the entrance and if you go a little further there is garage parking in the bottom.

It's been quite some time since I visited Hankook. I've always been impressed by their cooking…read morelineup. And as usual, their collection was extensive and comprehensive. They had the usual array of nonstick pots, which don't work very well for me. They had a small but useful section for clay pots. I thought Amazon and AliExpress had overpriced clay pots, but I was wrong. These prices were significantly higher. I can only hope these are the best of the best. Checking up on 99 Ranch, I couldn't even find clay pots in there more limited kitchen utensil section. I ran across one item where knockoffs are ubiquitous. They've completely flooded AliExpress and you have to watch it with Amazon. Hankook had the authentic item and at significantly lower price than both Amazon and Aldi express. I found a tea section to be well stocked. I also recognize some of the tea brands. 99 Ranch has gone with lower cost options, but if you buy 6 ounces of tea, are you gonna be stuck with an enormous supply. Better to go with reliable brands that I have enjoyed in the past. I loved the produce section. It was nice and fresh. It also had wider selection of produce than other supermarkets. The store itself is stunning. The the aisles are spacious. The store is meticulously clean. The shelves are fully stocked. There were only about two items which were shopped out. The snack area and the frozen foods were even more interesting. It's obvious in those two sections that there were many more Korean brands. I should've tried some, but it's hard for me to resist snacks and there was a good chance that would finish the entire bag in one go. Better to skip it entirely. The parking lot for the supermarket is spacious. I had no trouble finding a spot even though I arrived in the late afternoon when everybody has gotten off work. I live about two hours away. And I am very jealous because there is no Hankook near me.

They also have a lot of prepared foods, snack foods, etc. Everything is reasonably priced. They do have a large enough parking lot, and usually we park on the side to avoid the chaos.

The service has been on point and I can usually find someone to ask and they gladly tell me where the product is located in the store. The store is huge, offering many items, focused on Korean goods but other products are available as well. They have an on-premise "food court" like cafe at the entrance of the store, as well as a deli section in the back of the store for more prepared foods to take home, like fried chicken, kimbap, bibimbap, etc. They have an extensive produce, meat sections and a variety of Korean specific products are available, from frozen foods, refrigerated prepared, ramen, snacks, cosmetics and the Basquia Bakery. However, I noticed that some of the things they sold when they first opened are no longer available and could be due to lack of interest or import cost. (this was also true when they first opened their Sunnyvale location). Their prices are comparable to other Korean stores I've visited, since they offer many of the same items, but I noticed there are items may be higher priced than the other locations. I also noticed they have some items that are not sold at other stores and for this reason, I keep coming back. Overall, it is a super convenient Asian themed market in the area. The other option would be to go to Ranch 99 or the newly opened Osaka Marketplace, both in Foster City or drive to Sunnyvale/Santa Clara.

I've often come to this plaza for Felipe's next door. I heard of Apni Mandi from KQED's Luke Tsai's reviews of it. The special draw is Apni Mandi is open 24/7 which is a huge plus if you need something any time, stores in the Bay close pretty early. I walked in and immediately spotted the hot foods counter. After briefly looking at the menu, I of course had to get the lunch combo. Praised for its cheap price and good food. I wish there were labels for the offerings but I asked the server for her recommendations. I settled on the cauliflower and the daal. Both were super good and flavorful. Onion salad was refreshing. Came with rice and two rotis! Pretty good portion size for the price you pay. I ate half and am saving the other half for leftovers. I took it to-go so the worker wrapped my order in saran wrap. I didn't take a look at the grocery store part of Apni Mandi but seemed pretty busy on a Sunday morning!
