THIS is the SPOT if you're looking for a Khmer market with authentic items that you literally can't buy elsewhere. Don't be surprised when coming here that the parking lot is diabolical on the weekends - good luck trying to find a spot ! I came here once on a weekend & I would not advise - even street parking is scarce. Your best bet is to come on a weekday & you'll most likely find a spot in the teeny lot on Gardenia. THe store only has 2 registers & it's a zoo on the weekends. If you have craving for Khmer food, come here... chances are they have it. Beef skewers, pickled veggies, nom kom, to name a few. If you're looking for fish sauce or oyster sauce that's specifically made in Cambodia, they have it which I haven't seen at any other Khmer market or asian market. For how little the store is, there's a lot jammed inside. I was happy to find kreung here as I am too lazy to make my own ! and another rare find, Monk Balm (think tiger balm), & other medicinal items. You know the place is legit when you try asking a worker a question & they know NO english. If you're unfamiliar best to bring a Khmer speaker with to help assist in any questions. read more

Riverside Supermarket is now operating Under new ownership since 5 months ago. I did notice a few changes as i walked in the store. The merchandise on the shelves are more organized, shelves are cleaner and arranged in a more organized way. Of course the selection of fresh seasonal vegetables, fruits, ready made hot Cambodian cuisine and Cambodian desserts remains the same. So far the new owners were friendly and engaging . read more

Cambodian store Under new owners. More spaces, brighter lights, new vegetable display, and desserts. Delicious hot food and packaged food to go. Glad to see this small Cambodian store still serving the community. Restroom for customers also. read more

I seen a good selection of prepared foods and to go treats. I say the service was fast and the help was great. I find it filled with a good traffic flow and selections one can have for a Cambodian taste. The place is small with a lot of items at every corner. read more

This was my first time visiting Riverside Market, and unfortunately it was not a good experience. The cashier was on a personal call during the checkout process, which already felt unprofessional. Then she acted as if she had missed a charge and proceeded to ring me up twice, overcharging me by $15. I purchased 11 items, yet I was charged for 13. I genuinely wanted to support a Cambodian community business, but 'm feeling very disappointed. After checking other reviews, it seems I'm not the first person this has happened to. Sadly, I will not be returning. read more

New owners! All equipment is changed Very very clean and well stocked All veggies and meat are fresh!! One of the last standing Khmer Owned markets in Long Beach. read more

I love this place, my parents took me here when I was small, you can buy the sour lemongrass beef soup there, it is my favorite there, must try. read more

Foods are amazingly delicious hot or cold. Service is beyond what I could ever expect due to previous experience with the last owner. Atmosphere is welcoming and authentically friendly. I love their new layout of assorted deserts and their different but unique pickles veggies. It's always a must to stop by every time I go to LB. Best to go places for ready made meals especially when you are too tired to cook after a long day. I highly this place. read more

Double-check food quality and your receipt. I got home and realized they charged me twice on several items. The papaya was also bad, and this was purchase in the before around 11AM i read more

Ever since, the new owners, the customer service is prejudice and discrimates with age-ageism. They are biased. If you're older, they'll be friendly and offer well/good customer service. But if you're young and not carrying an expensive purse, the coupled owners will argue with you, tell you to bag your own stuff, they let you carry your own bag of rice to the car, they don't smile at you, they will wrongfully scan items that are not yours, and they give you attitude. They need to work on greeting and handling customer service towards anyone and stop discriminating on appearance and age. They are very rude and rush you too pay. I would honestly give this place zero stars because I had to encounter this more than once here. read more

All my Cambodian food fixes. All their soups are delicious. If I lived closer, I'd probably have a different soup everyday for dinner. They have Somlaw Machew Yuon, Somlaw Machew Sike Kho, Kaw Sike Chrouk, Somlaw Ka-Kho, and my personal favorite, Somlaw Machew Ktieh. Availability varies though. The cold deli usually has assorted prahok, banh xeo, papaya salad. The hot bar usually has ansom Chrouk, ansom Jake, fried fish, fried meat skewers, and my mom's favorite are the Jake Chien and Talonge Chien. They even have desserts and fresh cut up fruit with chili salt. They often have sarai cups, loht dessert, and the little egg yolk ovals and the sugary golden yellow pinched squares. read more

The Riverside Market has a soft spot in my heart. It's always been a go to when I'm in the area. It fixes all of my Cambodian cravings. You have an array of soup, hot plates, desserts, and cold deli. The staff is always super friendly & welcoming. Plenty of parking! If you're in the area & you get to stop by, I would highly recommend the beef sticks, prahok katiss, and somlaw ka-koh! read more

For some reason here on yelp it says its closed BUT THEY ARE NOT. Its an asian grocery store they have korean, viet, filipino , asian products. They have a wide variety of meats, fresh veggies. They also have cooked meals and a variety of soups. My daughter loved their eggroll. its nice and crunchy! PARKING: the reason why i only gave 4 stars is the parking, its kinda tight and spaces are narrow Overall a good experience , i usually go to hmart but this is like a mini version of it , i will definitely go back here again read more

Riverside Supermarket - egg roll - International Grocery Near Me - Long Beach, California

If you're looking for an Asian market with all the great vegetables that are hard to find in the larger big box stores, this is the place for you. If you are a neat freak, this is not the place for you. This is a very tightly packed, small, dingy store inside. But if that doesn't bother you, you can find so many of the wonderful Asia vegetables, sauces, noodles etc., used in Asian cooking. What I love about them is you can pic choose a fish and they will fry it right there. I also love the other Vietnamese snacks they have freshly made like spring rolls, fried bananas, fried yams, chicken and beef skewers and a variety of other things that I don't know their name. I just know I like to eat them. read more

Although this is a supermarket, this review is for their prepared foods. There are few places in SoCal that have prepared Cambodian food. They have so many traditional dishes at reasonable prices. I usually buy enough to last me a few days. I love their papaya salad and their soups. Their papaya salad has so much flavor and they give you a decent amount at a reasonable price. There are many soup options. I've tried the chicken curry and pork belly with egg. The small (8oz) was $8 and was enough to last me a couple of days. I want to go back and try the others. The supermarket itself is small, old, a little dirty, and kind of stinky. The few times that I've gone there, they have had low inventory of their prepared foods so it's a hit or miss. Consider going early. read more

This Cambodian market is the only place besides a few certain farmers markets where I can get fresh bittermelon (in Filipino: ampalaya) leaves. Their selection of Asian pantry items is not as good as the many larger Chinese, Vietnamese, Filipino, and Korean supermarkets. The strong point for this small market are the lesser known produce items and hot, ready-made Cambodian deli items. I must admit I have not tried any yet. read more

This market is small and kinda dirty. It's the closest Asian market by my house and they carry all the essentials you need to cook Asian cuisine. I only come here if I just need one thing. Otherwise, I drive a little further to bigger stores like Dong Mai or KH. My favorite thing to get here are the beef sticks, they are fresh and prepared on site. read more

It's a little run down and could use some TLC, but Riverside Market in the Cambodian neighborhood of Long Beach is a port in the storm when in need of Asian produce or the secret sauces that hold the key to delectable dishes. We resembled that remark, needing Chinese eggplant, scallions, hoisin sauce and chili oil to construct the scallion pancakes we planned for dinner. They had all that and more at good prices. We were also tempted by their homemade soups and other hot foods that many people were purchasing, but opted to stick with our designated menu. The workers were helpful directing us to the right aisles, and the cashier was pleasant checking us out. Our dinner at our friends' home was delicious authentic handmade Chinese. Riverside's assistance was invaluable. read more

Use to come here as a kid, it's one of the staple Cambodian markets in Long Beach. But as an adult, you realize what kind of establishment this is. It is definitely outdated and needs to be thoroughly cleaned. For a business that has been able to stay in business all these years. They should use their money on renovating the place and updating their equipment inside. Someone mentioned how it's like Cambodia, dirt and all. lol these are facts, because it is dirty. I felt like I was picking out vegetables on the street vendors tables in Cambodia. Not in a supermarket in a industrialized city. They have ready cooked food which is nice. However because I feel like their refrigeration doesn't work, I don't know how well the food stays. As a child, I didn't have a choice coming here with my grandparents. As an adult, I know there are better choices like the K-H market down the street in the heart of Cambodia town. read more

The people here are nice. I don't speak, I was asked to get something that I had a picture of but don't really know what it is, so I showed the photo to the cashier and they showed me where it was. read more

It's dirty, not updated, rude sometimes but they sell Twa Ko and variety of classic Cambodian premade foods. They do accept credit cards too. I don't come for a smile and service, I just want my goodies and get out. The parking lot is big, nothing has changed about this market ever since I was coming here as a little kid. Will continue to come back again for Twa Ko!!! You basically have to drive to 2-3 different cambodian markets to find everything anyways haha. For Twa Ko, call before you head over! I called and they let me know it wasn't available that day but the next it would be and when I arrived, indeed they were there in their glory. read more

This market owner is terrible attitude forward customer!!! Every time I go there, I spent aroubd $200, she is so rude no thank you and yell at me, so stupid! I always want to support Khmer business, if there is another Khmer market has stuffs I need I would not not come to this Riverside Market at all. Unfornunatelly, Khun Heng Market is close, other wise this market will no one come in!!!! That attitude of that woman need to be change!!!! so mean and rude! read more

. a family member been working there 10+ years for less than minimum wage while they profit . they own houses and nice luxury cars while there workers can barely support there family. the owner /dad is cool . fuck the mother and the kids. Without the cooks working hard 12 hours a day there wud be No Riverside Market period. read more

First time here in over 20 yrs. Back in town and notice all our Khmer stores are all gone but this one so I decided to come and support. Spent money on items I don't need just to support. Bought this Thai dessert and just as I'm about to enjoy it after dinner I find a bunch of mold. Label date is for today. Can't possibly go bad in less than a day. Leads me to believe it's repackaged. As a business owner myself, this is unacceptable and this is more for principal than anything else. I want to love and support but there needs to be accountability. read more

My rating is about the prepared fresh packaged food they sell. It is really good. I love the Nuom kruok, spring rolls, beef stick, chicken skewers, etc. it is fresh and very delicious. They will make the spring rolls vegan if your ask (just request spring roll without the chicken and shrimp) The staff is always very friendly. A reviewer mentioned that the store is not clean. None of the Asian stores in Long Beach are clean. I still shop at them. And Riverside Market makes some of the best prepared foods. One reviewer commented that the staff are not friendly. My experience has been that the staff are friendly. Anyway, most of their customers probably couldn't care about a yelp review. read more

After skimming through Riverside Market reviews I just had to write a review. After noticing lots of comments about Service. Really?!? Who the heck comes here for service? The owners kids are cool not super friendly but not rude so I'm a-o-k. This grocery store is the real deal, it's as Khmer as it can get dirt and all. I come to Cambodia Town at least once or twice a month and I must say I visit this place almost every time to stock up. I come here for the Khmer home cooking food and of course the fresh fruits and veggies especially the Thai chilies & Green mangos. The Salaws, Soups and Kaw are freshly cooked with all the ingredients and it's soooo good. You can get a small order for $5 or was it $6 bucks and a large size for $8 so it's way cheaper than the Cambodian Restaurants. The grilled beef sticks and chicken sticks are also super good as well. They sell like hot cakes for $1.50 per sticks so at times you may have to wait for some freshly grilled batch. Papaya & carrot salad are free99 with the sticks purchase. The spring rolls are also hella good for $3.50 you get 3 pieces and this amazing fish sauce that makes a light lunch for some or delicious snacks for others. Also most of their package cooked foods are very solid and authentic. I do also highly recommend the Cambodian beef sausage that available at the meat counter it's a lot like the Lao's sausage and Thai sausage but just a tad bit more sour but very good!!! The sour pickled bean sprouts and greens are also phenomenal pairs that with grilled fish (also sold here) and some steamed rice (also sold here hehe) and your tummy will be Happy. I can literally go on and on mainly about the Cooked hot and cold food sold here! So I'll stop but hey You don't have to be Cambodian to enjoy some of the good food sold here. Just stop on by and try a beef sticks or two. read more

It is what it is. They sell certain Cambodian stuff you need that you can't find anywhere else such as khmer sausage so you go there. Don't expect anything more. It's just sad to see store that benefits so much from the Khmer community in the area but lacks so much respect to the people they serve. This is an opinion from an out of town dropping by witnessing what I do not want to put on blast. Other than that, hot food is good, khmer sausage is good (second to another store down the road), good variety of package fold to go. read more

This place is a must for groceries needs. Great selection. There produced is is fresh. Great customer service and friendly too. Thank you and looking forward to shopping there again. read more

Riverside market is a hidden gem in Cambodia town. I love coming here to check out the fresh food combos like papaya salad, larb, etc... During the spring and summer months they have huge dragon fruit, lychee and sometimes mangosteen. Very expensive for the mangosteen and is recommended to eat quickly. Taro is also found here and I can make some kulolo with it. Lemongrass, galangal, bittermelon, thai basil, pre-peeled garlic and veggies are very cheap here. Nice family owned shop. read more

Pro: Beef sticks are good. Ordered 12 for $24 & it came with pickles veggies. Lady on the phone taking our order was friendly. Con: At checkout, cashier gave off a b.. vibe. Like damn lol read more

Food is decent; customer service is quite rude! The cashier that was there today Jan 26th 2020, at 9 something a.m. to be exact.... like my father asked a harmless question all he got back was a "get the fck outta my face" attitude.... I get folks wake up on the wrong side of the bed or even have bad days but when you're at work, you better put on that fake ass happy I'm at work customer service attitude. We came all the way from Michigan and hospitality here was fckd up.... we wanted to support our people's(Cambodian) businesses... but damn not here anymore... show some professionalism; you're in America for Buddha's sake... it's really a zero star but whatever.. read more

I haven't lived with my mom for a really long time and I can't cook authentic Khmer food well still learning...But I am from the 626 but i drive to LBC just to get these packaged food that is homemade and so yummy even though its packaged. But they package it fresh daily so its still fresh. Also, they have big hot pots of homemade Cambodian soups....Love it!!! ALso, I call sometimes to make sure their premade Steak/Pahok is still in stock and they actually save it for me when I call in. They are awesome!!!! read more

Riverside Supermarket - Since I don't get homemade because my moms not around, This is Heaven!!!! lol - International Grocery Near Me - Long Beach, California

Really love this market however with this whole Covid thing going on, beef sticks 3 for $7.50? It doesn't even come with a side of rice or a small papaya salad or anything! For $6 at another market down the street, you can get 4 beef sticks and a small side of papaya salad! I'll pass on getting these here from now on. And their spring rolls are a hit and miss because I think they have different people making em. Sometimes there will be hooked up rolls and I could only finish 2 (comes in a pack of 3). A few times I've purchased, they were skimpy and had 2 very small, extra thinly sliced shrimps (usually have 3 regular sized shrimps in each roll). Other than that, their soups are pretty good. They make a killer salaw machu and salaw machu kreung. read more

So I live in LA and I would drive my mom to this grocery store just to buy some authentic Cambodian veggies and freshly made food. My mom would stock up on desserts like no other! "It saves her time from cooking," she says. Aside from Cambodian food they also have Thai food (papaya salad) and desserts. The store is small but food and service is great. read more

Love coming here. Especially for their ready made food. It definitely smells asian when you walk in here. Don't expect it to be clean and super organize but you get what you need. Great beef sticks and their chicken. Sometimes I come here to buy ready made rice for the temple during the new year. read more

My family has been coming to Riverside Supermarket for as long as I could remember. The workers are always nice, friendly and always helpful. The vegetables and fruits are always fresh! The best thing I love about Riverside is their hot food! The closest to my mother's asian cooking! I remember they were the first to start selling different types of hot food and they are still the best! The most tasty soups and beef sticks! Their stuffed chicken wings are so good too! I love their Curry, Sour Fish Soup, and beef stew. They have really good pa hok too! I love coming here on lazy days to just get food to go! read more
