Jason was really nice and helped me buy Korean tea Solomon's root and they have Decaf Genmaicha $6.99, both teas more difficult to source on the shelf. Then it was onto Mackerel where we talked texture, oily-ness of Norwegian (more oily like Koreans eat) vs Spanish $3.99#. Sold whole uncleaned $4.99#, I got 2 medium for $11.50. Hickory Smoked them for Chinese New Year celebration whole, they were excellent, simply salted 30 mins prior to firm up and season the fish. Also scored a packet of dried Kefir Lime Leaves for Thai curries $2.99. Store is packed with lots of finds, Japanese Beer, rice seasoning, seaweed, asian sauces, Sushi grade fish, octopus. Fresh section is more limited to Napa .99c/#, 12oz Beansprouts $1.49, Kim chi, mushrooms, ginger, etc. At at last Hubby was so happy to find something he liked looking at in a grocery store...tools, lol! A long pair of 24" scissors with serrated edges at very end, a Korean BBQ grabber for cooking $5.99. It's home however shall be found in the garage, for hard to reach screws and nuts, loosening them or placing them I'm told duh, What a bonus haha. Sandyi is my new go-to for Mackerel, sushi grade fish, Japanese & Korean staples, an easy corner lot stop with plenty of parking. Thanks Jason! read more

Great little market with a nicely organized selection of Asian assortments. I really appreciate the variety of ramen options -- plenty to choose from whether you like something spicy or more traditional. The hot & sour soup is flavorful and satisfying, and the rice candies are such a fun treat. It may be a smaller store, but it's packed with a surprisingly huge selection. Friendly service makes the experience even better. Definitely worth stopping in! read more

This market is one of the best, if not the only Japanese leaning market in Tucson. I cannot stress how good the Sashimi grade meat selection is here. I love the different types of sesames seeds and Shoyu, and misos. The store seems to be a family owned business and they are always really cool and kind. I like how one can buy a few regular vegetables like green onion, if I forget so I don't have to head to Safeway on the way home if I am making Poke. I like the entire vibe of this shop. Right now the traffic is messed up 2/26 but I highly recommend this amazing market. read more

I love this place! The people are friendly and it has all the things I love!! They have ingredients so you can make food at home but they also have drinks and snacks and kitchen appliances. Best store ever! read more

10 out of 10 I would visit again! Even though the store is small, there are still a ton of different snacks to choose from (I bought kimbap). The shelves were fully stocked (kitchen gadgets, frozen foods, drinks, ramen, small rice bowls, chips, etc), and the place wasn't that busy either- especially on a Friday. I would have expected more people to be there. The environment was nice too. read more

If you're looking for some basic staples for Asian cooking, Sandyi probably has what you're looking for. They were able to pack a lot into this tiny store. I'm happy with the seaweed, tofu, and rice we purchased from here. Some prices are higher than Lee Lees or Grant Stone but the location makes it more convenient for me. read more

This market was clean and had a large variety of items. There was frozen section, refrigerator section, alcohol (and beer); also home goods (chopsticks and other cooking utensils), lots of snacks and sweets to try. There was also a large spice/sauce assortment. You can even find little gifts too. The ladies at the front were very friendly and welcoming. The location is convenient. read more

First time visiting this store. The store is tiny but very clean and organized. It looked like a family-owned business, so I'm assuming the staff running the store are a husband and wife team. The selection is limited, and the prices are a bit high. read more

Awesome store!! Large variety, clean, organized, very friendly folks. Lots of things new to me! I had a good time seeking and finding! Can't wait to return! Ps...had some delicious Korean corn dogs, Korean mixed noodles, and tteokbipokki! Yummm! read more

Every time I visit, I'm always warmly greeted! I love how organized the store is as it makes it super easy to find everything I need. I never run into low quality items and the prices of everything is very fair. This store is a lot closer to me than Lee Lee's, so I visit here when I need little things. My only complaint is that it lacks some things that I need for Southeast Asian cooking, but that's not a big deal or expectation because it's a Korean grocery store. This is definitely one of my go-tos. read more

I love this Korean market. It has everything you could possibly want and a number of Japanese products as well.

I do not cook Asian food often. I get nervous using ingredients I don't know. Today I wanted to make Taiwanese ramen soup, and went to Sandiy's. This tiny market did not disappoint. They had a good selection of anything you needed, a robust frozen/cool section, and they were helpful with the only item I could not find on my own. I will be going back to this place in the future. read more

Extensive product availability for Asian cooking. Good Japanese and excellent Korean stocks. The staff are quite knowledgeable and helpful. After trying other Asian markets in Tucson I have made this my go-to grocery read more

Great find in central, tons of quality inventory, clean and well-organized store with a friendly staff / owner. Grabbed a few things to spice up some home dishes, will be a regular stop and thanks Sandyi's Market! read more

I really liked this store. It was very clean, organized, neatly displayed, and all items were clearly explained in English, Korean and/or Japanese with nutrition info/expiration dates. I only mentioned this as some other small ethnic grocery stores lacked such important information. Once I stepped in, I was greeted with " hello, how are you? " by an unassuming, a mask-wearing , a kind gentleman who might be an owner. I was able to find everything , which were fresh & inexpensive , I was looking for at ease. Loved the juicy & sweet Asian pears, huge daikons, cabbages, & varieties of Asian snacks ( mostly Korean) I used to love. This will definitely be my go-to store whenever I need hard-to-find Korean or Japanese groceries. read more

I am Korean American, and this is my favorite Korean market it Tucson. They have staple Korean produce and meats for Korean BBQ and shabu shabu (like Japanese hot pot). They have a huge ramen selection! Very important for Koreans as we are one of the largest ramen consuming populations. They have trendy ramens from Korea, like cheesey ramen yum yum. Great selection of Korean staples like oils, pastes, and soy sauces. Great frozen food section. The service is amazing. The owners are some of the nicest people you'll ever meet. read more

This is my favorite little market in all of town not only is it super close and convenient but they have a great selection of food and snacks. I always end up spending more than I meant to because everything just looks so delicious. The owners are always so friendly greeting me as soon and I walk in the door and helping me with anything I'm looking for. 10/10 recommend this place and will not stop going to this cute little store on the corner. read more

Omg, I love this store!!! It's been super difficult to find a good Oriental store that has a variety of items I am looking for; I FINALLY found the one when going to jiu jitsu practice.

I will be back forsure to grab more groceries from them... Btw, super easy to find them, and plenty of parking available... read more

A little gem at the corner of Columbus and Pima! An amazing variety of items, including frozen and refrigerated entrees! I especially like the frozen thin-sliced pork shoulder for making spicy pork bulgoki! Family owned and operated, too! read more

I love this place it's one of the best stores in the world. I love it so much the best snacks and food.

This place everything on my shopping list for cooking Korean and Japanese food. It even had a specific Vietnamese fish sauce I had been searching for for ages. They have a small but always fresh produce section. Owners are very nice and speak Korean and English. Overall, love this place and no complaints! read more

Wonderful Korean Market with very sweet owners. I'm in love with their fresh kimchi! They are always well-stocked with a variety of Asian staples from beer and sake to dried foods, meats, dumplings, packaged snacks, miso pastes, and fresh produce. They also have a HUGE selection of seasonings, sauces, marinades, etc. Love supporting small, family-owned businesses. read more

There was a question for if they carry Natto? The answer is Yes. It's in the frozen section towards the back. read more

I bring my roommate here frequently because she loves her some Korean groceries. The owners are friendly and take orders for things they don't have. I'm not as hugely into Korean food as my friend, but Japchae is something I like to cook and eat and they have several kinds. Lots of Japanese selections too. read more

My favorite store if I'm being honest I always love to stop by and grab a couple snacks plus the staff are always really nice another thing is it's neat and tidy everything's placed nicely love the store though !! read more

This is a well stocked Asian store. They have some good items here but be careful what you get out of this store. My first impression was not so good. Why? I noticed the price for the same items were different for many of their products on the shelves. An example is Sesame Oil (a small bottle was 3.99) and another bottle of the same size is 9.96. Wow. You can get ripped off here if you're not paying attention. I bought 2 ramen noodles , same brand same size same kind but when I got home I noticed that they're 2 different prices. How could that be?? That's not right. $9.96 for a package of ramen noodles? Someone is not putting in the right price here. You can buy a 4-pack of the same brand and item at Walmart for $6.95. Good store but pay attention to what you buy here. read more

What a neat little place! I was pleasantly surprised when I found this place so close to my house. Lee-Lees, as awesome as it is, is a drive for me so this place is great for us central-lites. The best way to describe this place is "a little bit of everything." Noodles, oils, sauces, rice, sweet and salty snacks, etc etc. I was surprised at the small section of fresh noodles in the fridge section. The fridge holds these delicious red bean cakes that I can see myself returning for. This place seems to have been a convenience store in a past life, and this little store is a bit run down, but it's a great place. A nice central option for when the need for Asian ingredients arises. read more

Nice little Korean / Japanese market that is close to home and work. Owner is super friendly and offered us a free ice cream sandwich in a very hot day! Thank you it's these nice little gestures that earn you long term customers. read more

Definitely a go-to for my Japanese and Korean food needs. Although this is a relatively small store, I'm always amazed at how well it addresses my fairly extensive shopping list for Japanese and Korean foods. Friendly, welcoming atmosphere. Well-organized. Excellent variety of authentic foods. Good prices. What more can you ask? read more

I feel like I just discovered a hidden gem! I've probably passed by here a number of times but never thought to stop by until tonight when I googled asian markets because my husband and I wanted to make sushi but didn't have any of the necessary supplies. We found everything we needed to get started on sushi and even got some delicious ginger crackers. The staff was very helpful when I couldn't find something. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back soon. They even have sake, though I can't rate it because we didn't get any tonight. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I had to go elsewhere for the fish and vegetables, but I didnt really look to see what fresh produce is available. read more
