    Selection of beautiful & dainty cookies
    Cynthia P.

    I came to Austin Street to look around. Found Sakura-Ya and was curious. They have such a nice Selection of beautiful & dainty cookies! Individually wrapped inside the elegant gift box. Also great selection of hot foods! Friendly cashier. I wish they would carry my favorite Japanese tea: The Lupicia brand.

    I love how convenient this Japanese market is! Located in Forest Hills, it has a bunch of prepared food, Japanese snacks, candy, and drinks. They also have a section for makeup. I loved getting lunch from here since it was already prepackaged and ready to go. The prices are also very affordable. The owners were really friendly as well.

    Refrigerated section with premade and ready to eat meals

    This is my first time going to the new location. No longer local to forest hills so my visits are now far and few! The new location is much bigger and feels less claustrophobic! Still a great selection of Japanese snacks, dried and fresh foods. They have already made meals (bento boxes, onigiri, rice bowls) on the warmers, sushi rolls in the refrigerated section and fresh cuts of sushi grade salmon and tuna. What a gem!

    store inside summer 2025

    It's been long time since I left a review. They've renovated inside of the store. Hot foods, daily grocery Inc vegetables with decent price :) Japanese food and goods store. It's quite walking distance from train station but, there're many stores on way to get here. So you won't feel it's very far......... a store friendly and good vibes. There's a restroom to use.

    What is the non tax item?
    Aimmie M.

    The food is ok and decent for Japanese take out I never pay attention of the prices and the bill in each week that we go this store. Somehow today i see the bill and got curious about $2.69 " non tax item " that we paid. And we paid for 8.875% tax at the end of bill too. Im really curious and don't feel right about this! Definitely gotta ask the store next week we go

    Sashimi fish , no off coloring incredibly fresh for a small mom and pop shop

    A sound of distress was in the air, coming from my left as I picked out and packed baby eggplants…read more The task of rolling out boxes of fruit n veggie must have dulled, so two tiny workers shrink wrapped another to a parking meter. Now that's funny! But the mini eggplants were decrepit and turning fast, I bought some deep purple bigger ones for counter balance. One never knows the schedule of incoming, so outside shopping can be hit or miss. Yesterday was a miss, today likely will be a hit although I'm packed to the rafters at home now. Cauliflower, pears, carrots, celery, peppers, strung beans all for under a dollar and a half per pound, the market fluctuates as the product diminishes, giving itself back to nature in death and decay but you'll never encounter that stage on display. The smoked fish display is always my favorite stop, Chubs are $4.99 a pound and they last a goodly while in the fridge, so I bought my usual three. I LOVE that they're perched upon the top of the counter, not displayed behind the glass of a case. I feel more inclined to buy in this scenario, I see they're orange brown eyes and I wonder about their lives prior to landing here. Anyway, I accidentally parked illegally and no ticket was given making this Sunday shopping excursion a total success, minus the baby eggplant.

    The rudest place to shop - ever! It's not the workers - the CUSTOMERS a bunch of people who think…read moreit's the Grand Shuk. And, the language if u dare counter one of these beasts -- AMAZING And, ALL SHOPPING ON FOOD STAMPS Shout out to kosher people - the store is FILLED WITH CHAMETZ - people putting that stuff in their carts along with Passover items

    This Aldi was the best one I have been to. Get there early and you will be in and out in no time…read more The store was neat and well organized. I found everything that I was looking for. Staff was friendly and extremely helpful

    Pure chaos…read more Mentally, emotionally, and even physically prepare yourself before you walk through these doors. I've only been to one other Aldi's (out of state) and that seemed to be more relaxed, organized, and clean, but this one seems to attract some of the worst shoppers I've ever encountered: shamelessly opening packages, knocking products down, destroying items, and misplacing them. I get it's a discount market and that this shopping center in particular pulls in most of Queens but it's reminiscent of Black Friday in the 2000s most of the time--at all hours. So many aggressive shoppers who are very likely ready to shove you. It is somewhat better during the weekdays and I always get most of what I need. Their meat and cheese selections are excellent and decently priced. I don't suggest getting anything brand-name because they definitely charge a little more than elsewhere but for everything else, you can tell when big labels make an off-brand version for Aldi. The staff is here and there at times and they are definitely understaffed, even during peak hours. I've seen them get frustrated with unaware shoppers, which is understandable. Don't make this your one-stop shop if you live in the area or have a market near you. Not worth the stress navigating through people and long lines at times.
