It was a glorious Saturday morning when I was sitting on the couch and scrolling through a Filipino…read morecooking group on Facebook when someone mentioned that there was a Filipino Mart in Charlotte. I never jumped up so fast and got dressed and headed out the door before in my life. Okay, I did pause to call the store and make sure they were open and it was indeed a real place. And sure enough, they were open - so off I went. This store is in a small parking lot but easy to find. Sometimes they have their store van parked in the parking lot which makes it even easier to spot from the road. The store is only 3 aisles with a back room and 4 freezers full of authentic and delicious Filipino brands but you will not be disappointed. They carry all things Goldilock brands. They even had some Filipino items that I had never been able to find before. The owners are nice and friendly - always asking if I found everything I was looking for. The store is very clean and very well organized. They also offer deliveries and you can get more information on this on their Facebook page. It looks like they break up their delivery schedules by area. You can also call in your order and they will shop for you and you can just pick up for curbside delivery. They also do a pretty good job of updating their inventory on Facebook if you are looking for something specific. I love that I can now go to one store for all things Pinoy and get what I need.

The owner was really helpful (via text) and responded right away when I was searching the day before. The fridge in the back had so many filipino goodies that I rarely see, so I couldn't help myself to a few. Would definitely come back here!

This place is huge and the ambiance is great! The service was good as well we dined on the patio. We ordered tapa style, shared plates so we could have as much as possible! The twice fried Korean chicken? Amazing!! I recommend this method! Everything was AMAZING! I will say the Karaage comes with a side of mayo with a spice topped on it. Personally, I'm not dipping chicken in pure mayo and a siracha mayo would liven this dish up! The coconut shrimp looks underwhelming but the taste is delicious! The spring rolls taste so fresh and the roti is WORTH a few orders!! We will be back again!

We were here on a day the weather was just right and were able to enjoy an early supper outside. We ordered roti, fried rice (subbed tofu for egg) and the veg Buddha Belly dish.

Over the years, I've become heart broken. I've had to sit on this review for a minute because I've…read moremade my decision to never come back here again. On the afternoon/evening of 8/4/25 my husband and I came in. We ordered rose bubble tea, and lavender bubble tea, both large, oat milk, double boba. The second we came in we saw the girl peak her head out and rolled her eyes. "What do you want." With no energy and heavy attitude. I was polite and said my order. And she seemed upset about something on her mind. We decided to tip her I think 15-18% to see if it would make her happy or brighten her day. She didn't say thank you and she just turned around and walked away. I was not expecting her to say thank you for the tip, but I was expecting her to say thank you or your order will be out soon as a customer service note. There was another guy behind the counter/curtain and he mentioned something which made her go. "Oh well it's too late now, and then she shrugged her shoulders. " and we heard that as we left the building. Got home and within about 20 minutes my husband and I threw up. I have no idea what happened to these drinks, as the curtains are closed behind the counter. I no longer trust this place to make me SAFE food.

They're located in a shopping plaza so they have plenty of parking. We stopped in on a Tuesday…read moreevening, so the place wasn't too busy, thankfully, for a weeknight. We had 6 in total for our party. I love the number of options that they have to offer and am glad they also had a variety of food. The wait staff was friendly and patient with the questions we had about our order. We did have to wait a while for our order of 7 deinks and 7 food items. The drinks came out first, then the ramen and then the noodles and rice. The drinks were delicious, and the galaxy teas were so pretty!! It was definitely difficult to select just one option to try. If you go with a large party and they're willing to share, I would definitely recommend going that route!! A must try spot if you're in the area.

I really do love Super G Mart. I frequent both locations -- the one on Independence and the newer,…read morelarger store in Pineville -- and this one feels like a destination in itself, especially with the huge food court. As a transplant to Charlotte for work, I'm always searching for the ingredients and flavors I grew up with, and this place delivers. From the fresh seafood counter -- where you'll find beautiful tiger prawns -- to the endless rows of fish sauce, oyster sauce, and every variety of soy sauce imaginable (sweet, dark, mushroom, Japanese), the selection is impressive. The aisles are thoughtfully organized by cuisine and region, which makes navigating the store surprisingly easy, even if you're new to Asian markets. The frozen section alone is worth the trip. If you're looking for dumplings -- Chinese, Japanese, Korean, even Nepalese -- they've got you covered. And don't sleep on the handmade crepe cakes in the freezer. Yes, they're about $25, but they're stunning and absolutely delicious. Honestly, they rival the famous crepe cakes from Lady M in the San Francisco Bay Area, where those cakes can easily run over $100. At this price point, it feels like a steal -- and you'll definitely impress your guests. The produce section is another highlight. The ginger is incredibly fresh, and the variety is fantastic -- from gai lan and sweet chives to cebollitas (Mexican green onions) and crisp green beans. It's a true sensory experience for anyone who loves to cook. This isn't a trendy, boutique grocery store, and that's exactly the charm. It's old-school, practical, and stocked with the essentials. Toward the back right corner, you'll find pallets of noodles in every style -- Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean -- everything you could possibly need for home cooking. The butcher and fishmonger are also available to help, which adds a nice personal touch to the shopping experience. There's also a bakery inside with beautiful fruit-and-cream cakes -- the kind you'll recognize if you've ever celebrated in an Asian household. Light, fresh, and not overly sweet. And if you're a coffee lover, keep an eye out for Café du Monde coffee -- it's usually several dollars cheaper here than at typical grocery stores. A few friendly tips: * Go with a plan -- this place can be overwhelming in the best way. * Don't bring a big entourage unless they're ready to explore. * And if you visit the Pineville location, go hungry -- the food court alone is worth the trip. Both locations are fantastic, but the Pineville store is newer, larger, and especially fun to explore. Shop curious, cook boldly, and enjoy the adventure.

I ended up purchasing a good value priced high, rated sweet soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, coconut candy from Thailand, Chinese, frozen dumplings with pork and leeks, and fresh green beans. On my way out, I heard very loud violin music. It sounded like something I was familiar with, however, I could not put my finger on. It was definitely cover band music. And to my surprise, there was a young man busking playing his violin with an amplifier. The music was joy to my ears! You never know what you're gonna get going to the super G Mart.!

It's never a complete trip if you don't go to the restaurant area and get some food to eat there and some pastries to take home. Finish the day with a excellent boba tea

A Familiar Craving That Fell a Little Short This Time…read more This review is for L&L Hawaiian Barbecue, and I wish I were writing it with more enthusiasm because I've had good experiences here before. This was probably my third or fourth visit, and I came in craving Hawaiian barbecue--specifically the grill and seafood mix with kalbi short ribs and fried shrimp, something I've ordered many times at other L&L locations, including the one in downtown San Mateo. I arrived around 4:00-4:30 in the afternoon, and there was no one behind the counter. They have a self-order kiosk, which I tried to use, but it was a little clunky and frustrating. Eventually, an employee came out, and I asked if I could just order directly. I requested the combo with only short ribs and shrimp--no fish. He had to check with the chef, which felt unusual since that substitution has never been an issue before, but eventually it was approved. The pineapple coconut smoothie, by the way, was delicious--sweet, cold, and exactly what I needed on a hot day. No complaints there at all. Where things fell short was the portion and overall value. When I got home and took a closer look, there were only six small pieces of shrimp and just one piece of kalbi short rib. Normally, you get two. That difference matters, especially when you've made a 20-minute drive with a certain expectation based on past visits. The flavor was still good. The food tasted like L&L, and the condiments were right--tartar sauce included, which I appreciated. But small details add up. There were no napkins or utensils in the bag, and the portion felt noticeably lighter than what I've received before. To be fair, part of this is on me--I should have double-checked the contents more carefully before leaving. Still, consistency is important, especially when customers return because they remember a reliable experience. I'm not writing this to discourage anyone. There's a whole world of good food out there, and this place can absolutely be part of it. I just hope the team pays closer attention to portions and those small touches that make the experience feel complete. Because when it's done right, L&L really does hit the spot.

You're prob not gonna like this review if you're a roundeye…read more New Century offers Asian products in a uniquely Asian setting. If you're looking for a Harris teeter or Publix vibe, then stick to that. And if you don't know what you're looking for or just here to browse, then keep it moving. Maybe buy it on Amazon or make an Asian friend that's either first or second generation. The parking lot is very bad. The conditions of the shopping carts are very bad. This I cannot disagree with other reviewers with. I have to dock a star for that. But for the availability of grocery items, this is my go-to. I can't think of another market where I can find a 10lb can of sliced water chestnuts or something most roundeyes don't have a clue of. I'm here 1-2 times per week. If you see me, feel free to ask me questions. Or maybe take trip to an Asian city for a bit of culture so that you can truly appreciate what this store has to offer. There's more to life...

It was a lot of fun but there are definitely some things that would have made this experience a little smoother for us. Overall, the price is very reasonable when split between the group. One very easy and good improvement would be to move the TV screen to the back of the room. It's positioned in the same area as the "stage" so everyone had to turn their backs to read the lyrics which just felt silly. For a room fit for 25, more mics are needed! I think it's 2 per room regardless of the size. The most frustrating part of our experience is that our YouTube queue was somehow shared with another room's. We would add songs, they would delete them. Random songs would show up in our queue, we would delete them. We didn't realize it until about 20 minutes in. When we told an employee about this, they weren't aware and didn't know what to do about it, but that's definitely something that needs to be sorted out for a better experience. Space-wise it's definitely pretty cramped although you could say that it made things more intimate. Food was good though! I've also had a lot of karaoke experiences where tambourines are included for added fun. Definitely wasn't expecting this, but that could be a fun addition! Overall I've had better karaoke room experiences but I would still go back again and recommend to anyone who's never done this before!
