I love their churros (reminds me of Disney world) and their frozen tamales I can steam at home. I don't have to sweat over the store to enjoy theses yummy goodies. This place has been in this plaza for years and they're definitely a must go to place if you're looking hard to find ingredients. Also the owners are very approachable and knowledgeable. Lastly , if you're looking for cheap spices, they place sells them for 1/4 of the price in big box stores! I don't go anywhere else after finding out about this grocery store.

I have found them to be friendly, helpful, respectful to a diverse array of people (and attitudes) and their very busy activity is an obvious fruit of their approach. They will listen to their customers to inform their future decisions. I am grateful that they continue despite walmart and other goliath big boxes grinding smaller businesses into the ground!! I have been a customer for 30 years and continue to do so because they offer a special and community environment - a rarity these days!!

Lucky for the residents who live above. It may be a zoo here but like T&T without the shopping carts bumping & swerving all over the place.

In this bustling area of people buying groceries to prepare at home, here is another one offering fresh greens and fruits, usually it is an all out war-zone at times shopping here, as it is more in the center of the floor compared to the others. It's great to see that you just have to walk a few steps to compare prices, and freshness, so that is always a plus with coming here. The produce goes in a hurry due to the cheap prices, and Lok's is no different.

This store and location has been growing on me over the last couple years. I like its convenient…read morelocation, free parking and hot foods section. Plus I am usually pleased with the freshness of their foods. I also enjoy their lunch box with bbq pork and soy sauce chicken, tho it tends to be saltier in taste and needs to be paired with hot tea or a drink. Overall, it's quite tasty when purchased at the start of lunch hour as the chef brings out all the freshly prepared whole chickens and satisfying. Their bbq lunch boxes seem bigger in portion size and more economical ($14.98) than Neptune plus with the ample parking options, it makes for a much quicker grab and go lunch option. (IMO, Neptune is better for dim sum or dine-in meals.) I usually prefer coming to this store over t&t for Asian groceries such as seaweed snacks or condiments or dry noodles etc. Because I find this location much less crowded with faster lineups and feels more comfortable with its natural lighting and spacious layout. This store meets my overall expectations in cleanliness, convenient parking, and cashier efficiencies but some may opt to shop elsewhere to look for lower prices. For me, their deli foods section, free parking, decent food selection, fresh quality and friendly service keeps me returning to this store.

Parking is plentiful in the lot in the front (back?) of the building, as well as on the street. The building clearly used to be 3 different businesses, as the layout is really bizarre. There are 3 large "rooms", joined by a corridor. To be honest, this place is probably quite the fire hazard to newcomers. Thank goodness somebody had the sense to stick a large map on the wall. Some doorways between the sections would be nice. With that out of the way, there are 3 sections. Product, meat/aquarium (yes, aquarium), and dried goods. Pricing is in line with other places. The place is quite popular with locals, which tells you everything you need to know. As with other similar businesses, there is a hot food section as well. I picked up some takeout and it was mediocre. Does the job, but nothing special. I imagine this place serves the local market quite well. Wouldn't make a special trip out, but good to know the place exists.

Vancouver Croissant Crawl - Caramel Roasted Pecan Croissant Roll…read more Croissant roll filled with light mascarpone caramel cream, dipped in caramel chocolate and caramelized pecans. The size of croissant was much bigger than I expected. It was nice surprise. Filling was very delicious. Marscarpone caramel cream was light, creamy and sweetness level was just right. I loved the topping. Caramel chocolate and caramelized pecan paired perfectly with the filling. Pastry dough itself was ok. It was very buttery, however, I would have liked a bit more crispier. But, this item was still a great item for filling and topping. I felt service could have been a little better.

Right outside the entrance there is a bungeobbang shop. You have to go inside order via the cashier first and then come out to tell the person to make it. Comes out piping hot and delicious.

I didn't realized she was talking to me until I clued in that maybe she was. I said I don't speak Korean and she said no pictures. There was no signage stating no photography. Frankly in today's age, taking photos is akin to breathing. It's useful to send pictures to people, asking if they want the item or ask what that's used for. It's not only to post online. She was pretty rude about it too. The opening promotion has good discounts with some items at 50% off. Sign up for the membership and get extra 5000 points.
