    So happy to visit our new neighborhood market! If we're hungry or have the munchies it's only 3 minutes away! They have so many hot food items you're sure to find something. This time I went for some yummy tamales and some delish ceviche. Yum yum! I also got their Strawberries & Cream Agua Fresca... OMG, a dessert you can drink! It was so yummy, what a treat!

    Since the existing market shuttered to the announcement of a Northgate Market coming in has been so exciting. The day has come and Northgate has open. I entered through the door and wow, wow, wow! They have everything made fresh in the bakery, the prepared foods including Carnitas, rice, beans, salsas & ceviche. There's an area where they make fresh flour and corn tortillas, an impressive meat counter, fresh produce and even a area where they have fresh squeezed juices. There's only thing they don't have is freshly made churros at this location. If you want churros you'll have to go to the Santa Ana location.

    Guacamole bar. Offering no jalapeño, jalapeño , and habanero.

    My mom wa visiting during the holiday season and she wanted to prepare a homemade seafood paella…read more We tried going to our normal grocery stores to buy fresh seafood and we couldn't find things like mussels, crab, squid, etc. My bf suggested visiting here so we gave it a try. They have a large parking lot, but it's also pretty bus at times. This is a big grocery store with a wide variety of Asian foods. I got some shrimp chips which I like and cannot find at other stores. The seafood section was PERFECT! They had such a wide variety of seafood from fresh in fish tanks, to frozen in the open freezers. I would definitely highly recommend visiting for fresh seafood and Asian foods. The place is pretty crowded and we did look out of place, but I didn't care. People were friendly and even if they had limited English they would try to communicate with us and help us. It is a pretty crowded space so be aware of that. They form one long queue for the checkout and go sorting through the lanes. Overall I have a new go to place for seafood.

    Customer service is non-existent here…read more I bought two boxes of soju and came home to put it away and one of the bottle was broken inside. Called them to ask if they could exchange the broken bottle and the lady that answered basically told me theres nothing she could do unless I have proof that it broke there. I always buy boxed soju and never had this happen so I never thought to check inside the box. Mishandled there cuz I drove straight home after buying. She also added that I should have caught it and not bought it. I would never in a million year do a review for the market but I am definitely not returning back to this location. Check everything before you leave the store is a lesson I learned. Looking at the bottom of the box I guess there is a little stain mark lol I should have caught that before buying according to the worker there.

    Of the three Korean supermarkets occupying the northwest, southwest, and southeast corners around…read moreBeach Boulevard and La Mirada Boulevard/Malvern Avenue, H Mart, Zion Market, and Super 1 Mart (formerly Hannam Chain) have a clear pricing hierarchy. (H Mart is generally the most expensive, Zion Market occupies a comfortable middle ground with frequent aggressive sales, and Super 1 Mart tends to be the most budget-friendly for general and imported goods.) I particularly like Zion Market because it strikes a great balance between price, selection, and quality. The store carries a tremendous variety of fresh Korean produce that I simply cannot find in the Central Valley, along with snacks, frozen foods, prepared foods, and an excellent selection of banchan. Many items are frequently discounted, and the weekly produce specials--including seasonal fruits--make it especially worthwhile. This location also stands out for its convenient parking and clean, well-organized layout. High-quality Korean produce and an extensive selection of Korean groceries are sorely lacking in Fresno County, where I have called home for the past five years. You appreciate these Korean supermarkets even more after moving away from one. Zion Market carries a vast selection of Korean staple vegetables and fruits, often at very reasonable prices, along with competitive pricing on packaged goods. The produce selection is particularly impressive, with fruits and vegetables often available at peak ripeness. The selection extends well beyond produce. They have a massive variety of fresh meats and seafood, Korean cooking staples, traditional snacks, trendy items, and hard-to-find Korean specialty products. Whenever I shop for meat, I always have to pick up my Korean staples: samgyeopsal (unmarinated pork belly), galbi (beef short ribs), and bulgogi (thinly sliced marinated beef). Of course, no Korean grocery trip would be complete without a huge jar of kimchi. Zion offers plenty of varieties, as well as a convenient selection of pre-packaged banchan. Some of my usual choices include myulchi bokkeum (stir-fried anchovies), seasoned squid or baby octopus (ojingeo-chae/nakji-jeot), crispy kimchi pancakes (kimchi buchimgae), soondae (Korean blood sausage), dotorimuk muchim (seasoned Korean acorn jelly), pyeonyuk (pressed meat), and dububuchim (pan-fried tofu with spicy sauce). If I am shopping specifically for bargains, I tend to come here for the cheaper fruits, vegetables, and packaged goods compared with the Korean grocery alternative just up the corner. The seasonal fruit selection is especially appealing from mid-August through mid-October, when Korean concord grapes and Korean pears give way to persimmons, pomegranates, and other autumn favorites as the season progresses. I appreciate these Korean supermarkets so much more now that I live away from the Central Valley's limited Korean grocery options. Zion Market remains one of my favorites because it combines affordable, high-quality produce, extensive Korean grocery selection, ready-to-eat foods, an excellent variety of meats and seafood, numerous kimchi options, and a clean, organized shopping environment. For me, it offers the ideal middle ground between H Mart's higher prices and Super 1 Mart's bargain-oriented approach.

    This was one of the worst experiences I've ever had at a grocery store…read more Before shopping, my family and I had lunch at the tonkatsu restaurant next door and bought some bread afterward. Inside the bread bag was a partially eaten container of seasoned seaweed that I had been eating. Before I even entered the market, the security guard at the entrance stopped me and, in a confrontational tone, asked, "What's this?" I showed him the container and explained that it was simply the seaweed I had been eating. I asked if there was a problem. He replied that the market sells the same product and that it could be misunderstood. I completely understand the need to prevent shoplifting, but instead of politely explaining the situation, he spoke to me in an accusatory manner from the very beginning and even criticized my tone of voice. I've shopped at many grocery stores, but I've never had a security guard confront me before I even entered the store. It completely ruined the shopping experience for my family. My children were surprised and upset by the security guard's rude behavior. They kept asking me what had happened and why he was talking to us that way, which made the whole experience even more disappointing. To avoid any further misunderstanding, I left the container of seaweed at the entrance before going into the store. This was an extremely unpleasant and disappointing experience.

    Wow, what a gem! Imagine a small neighborhood Korean Grocery store that imports specialty ban-chan…read morefrom different regions in Korea. But they also have a kitchen and do catering, and make their own Kimchi and Ban Chan as well, FRESH DAILY. Man oh man, their KIMCHI is pure perfection! It is what TOSoonEE (Seoul Kimchi in Garden Grove) used to taste like. $20 but oh so worth it!!! - Fresh ingredients - High quality chili peppers - Not fishy at all - Very well balanced - And nicely fermented so you can start eating as soon as you get home - Today they had the POGI kimchi (which is the full length cabbage heads, that you slice into bite sized chunks), it was so freakin good! They also had picked roots/leaves, etc. - I picked up a few to try that were on sale for $4.99 They had a frozen red bean mochi for $6.99. - It was wrapped in a fragrant leaf - So the mochi takes on the leaf's flavor - Super simple but tastee They also had a mini-dried-shrimp stir fry banchan. - perfectly done Man, they have so much other stuff, grains, teas, dried items, etc. gotta go taste the whole store. They said for catering, you can just call in advance, with a min order of $30. So reasonable. They are open Mon - Sat. until 7pm. Closed on Sundays. They are in the same retail center as Thai Lady. Parking can be tight, cos there is also a martial arts place, parents/parking, etc.

    I'll have to do some investigating on the signs in this store with the city of La Mirada. I believe…read morestore fronts should have signs in English. It's almost as if not welcoming other races but only those that can read Korean! Not cool!

    Ebisu is a daiso on steroids. A little Tokyo jam packed into one store but cleaner, newer,…read moreorganized with fair prices. Super cute with a lot of great finds. If you've ever been to little Tokyo in Los Angeles, parking and alleys can be sketch and not to mention, Dirty with a capital D. Stairways and elevator is gross. Streets are pungent as well. Well, not at EBISU. There's ample parking in a strip mall plaza. Store is big to accompany many googly eyed kids and adults that enjoy all things Japanese from snacks, ramen, trinkets, action figures, buildable figures, collectors items, stationary, skin care, ice cream and beverages. Did I miss anything? Oh toiletries and kitchen items. This is better than Daiso and little Tokyo in my opinion. Check out the shots!! Research indicates Ebisu's philosophy as (via website): EBISU is not simply about importing Asian goods. It is about turning better products, better pricing, and a better store experience into something customers can enjoy every day in the U.S. A strong homepage keeps the message focused. Long-form company history, qualifications, and milestones can live on a dedicated About page while the homepage stays conversion-friendly.
