Let me tell tell you, they're awesome and their food is better! Lechon Kawali 5 stars Lumpia 5 stars Bihon 4 stars ( only because noodles are noodles) BBQ chicken skewers 5 stars Turon with Ube 5 stars. Original are really good too. I've never had Turon so I don't hav e anything to compare it with. Needless to say, I ordered catering from them the following week. Looking forward to trying the pinakbet and canton bihon.

First time coming to this Filipino family market. My patients have always been asking me and…read moretelling me if I have been here before and I said no. But now, today was that day! The day when I got to try and taste the beauty of Filipino food. When you enter the family market, you are introduced to the snacks, condiments, drinks, and some decorations about the Filipino culture and tradition and delicious snacks to give to family and friends or for yourself. There were lots of great Filipino snacks to munch on, but I sadly did not get anything. Because my main goal and priority was to try their delicious food. I ordered a to go container and got a lot of delicious proteins and carbs. I would highly recommend this to everyone who has never tried Filipino food, this place is the right place, and the place that you should try first! The staff were very welcoming and happy and excited to serve their customers walking in. 10 out of 10 stars for this Filipino family markets. And I will be back soon! By the way, the TURON is to die for!! my mouth waters every time I think of it.

If you want unique and truly delicious straight from Japan come to this store. They had the cutest cookies with cream and fruit but from Japan and not mandatory to refrigerate. They were delicious. The lady there is super nice and helped me pick an even better piece of produce than I did. Store is clean, and siesta looks good. The bogo is great! Take advantage of that. Oh and their chips from Asia can't be beat. Unique flavors my 96 year old mom loves! Without a doubt you must buy the green onion pancakes by geemate. They are better than restaurant quality. My husband never eats the ones at restaurants but really liked these. These can't be found everywhere either!

I was particularly interested in a Facebook article about Japanese Milk Tea Ice Cream. I spoke to the store owner and he showed me what Ice Cream he stocks. He indicated it was not Milk Tea however, and I guess I misread the article. Other items of interest included many Hello Kitty items, slices of quality beef, Japanese vegetables and spices and many packaged goods from Japan. The store is so neat and everything has its place within the store. I felt I was in someone's home, so I was cautious about what I touched. Overall, this market has its place in the San Gabriel Valley, as the catering of Japanese goods helps maintain the customs of Japan and allows those Issei pioneers to maintain their lifestyle.

First time visiting this massive warehouse. They have everything from noodles, condiments, and…read moresnacks to kitchenware, produce, meat, and hard-to-find imported items. Got some beef and hot pot meats to freeze and cute dishes. No membership is required though I saw they have memberships for restaurants for more savings. Definitely worth checking out if you love Asian food and discovering new finds.

People call this the "Chinese Costco," and I can definitely see why! The prices are generally lower than what you'd find elsewhere, although I wouldn't say everything is cheaper. I'd estimate that maybe around 60% of the items are a better deal. Overall, I'm very happy with this store and will definitely keep coming back.

Finally had a chance to visit iTaiwan Foods! This is the closest location to me and it's a cute and…read morefun shopping experience. The store is a bit small, but it's nice to see the selection of imported Taiwanese goods. It's around the time for Mid Autumn Festival so they had discounts of several different kinds of moon cakes which is neat. I'm only one person so I didn't partake, but if you have family and a lot of people to gift, this might be a great deal to take a look at. Staff are super nice and friendly, welcoming too and made lots of suggestions during my visit. Grab a basket as well if you are going to make a lot of purchases. I LOVE the little photo op they have in the front. The Formosan black bear holding the boba milk tea is super cute. Definitely take photos if you can. They also have other deals and specials there too, like a slight discount if you purchase the whole box of bottled drinks and more. Selection varies from refrigerated and frozen items (like fish, neat!), snacks, sauces, candies (I love the herbal candies, great for the throat), cookies, canned goods, drinks (the bigger box milk teas are yummy), and much more. I mainly went there since my friend got a new fancy toaster and I remember seeing imported Taiwanese garlic spread and condensed milk type sweet spread and thought it would be a great gift to get. Also saw the Science Noodle snack. The wizard on the bag always reminds me of my grandpa so I got one of those as well. Make sure to sign up for their membership program. Completely free and you can keep your points, they never expire, for your next visit! PS. Plenty of parking since it's a huge plaza.

3.5 stars I was in…read morethe area, waiting for a friend to arrive for lunch at Bonjuk and Bibimbap so I stopped by. The store has fully stocked shelves of goods from Taiwan. It was nice to see certain items that I had not seen in so long. The store is a bit on the smaller side, but whichever way you look, there's something for everyone. Goods are a bit pricier than most, but not many places sell goods directly from Taiwan. As others mentioned, it was very clean and have a good selection. There are plenty of parking near the store, especially since Big Lots has closed years ago.

I live by the produce. I get 80% of mine from here. They have a lot to chose from and the prices are remarkable. There is always a good sale on meat and seafood, and they have some great quality. Gary is always very personable and delivers top notch service. Over in the deli section, not only is the service stellar but they have a very wide variety of product. Cheeses, deli meats, dips, salads.....an excellent selection. This is a great community grocery store and I highly recommend it for your grocery needs, especially if you're on a budget!

Well they have super long lines and no baggers. So the cashier has to bag and it can take so much…read moreextra time. Unless you the customer bags your own stuff. But the elderly can't do that so it's why the lines are so long. Now here is the kicker. At the end of the checking line is a manager ...sometimes 2. A man and a woman. They are observing the long lines...counting something...just observing. It would help if THEY just go to the end of a long line and start bagging! See, that would be cool! You see you guys have not scheduled any baggers and the lines are so long they are down the aisles .. and you are just standing there? Of course they may say, well that's not my job. But that's the mentality that keeps things moving slow. It would be so nice if people just did what it takes to keep things moving. Either hire enough people OR get in there and start bagging! I remember back in the days there was a bagger at the end of each checkout aisle. A bagger and a casher! Those days are gone ...and most stores now see if they can get away with overworking the checker! Next thing you know they install self check outs! Rather than hire people and keep a system of people working they just get rid of people and have 1 person observing (like these managers were doing). What a world we are moving towards. But anyways that's what you see. I wish they would just hire bag boys and go back to the good ol days.

I had also just gone to Japan in April so this was cool to see what kind of products and different items that I came across in the convenience stores and all the different retail shops in Japan. There's a lot of good food and drink options. There's just a lot of toys and dishware. There's lots of great finds throughout. Obviously it's going to be a little more expensive than Japan, but these are going to be items that you can't normally find at your normal markets. The location is fairly big and they have lots of fun statues throughout the store. There is plenty of parking in the back structure. But he can't get busy, especially when it's a popular time of day. There's constantly new items here. So I was always fun to walk in here and see what they have available.

I could have sworn that they used to have more limited hours, but either way, it's a solid European market. Aside from being a market, I think they also do shipping services to Europe too if you have friends or family there. Sizeable market with lots of snacks, sweets, dried goods, some ice cream, frozen food, drinks, alcohol, cooking and baking goods, and much more. You can easily spend a good amount of time perusing the wide variety of food that they have here. Great place to get tinned fish, chocolates, or crackers and cookies or candies if you're trying to find a quick gift. My boyfriend got some alcohol and some canned goods here. I got some caramel vanilla ice cream. Reminded me of the drumstick ice cream, but creamier and less "heavy" tasting if that makes sense. A juxtaposition, I'm sure. Shop had customers come in and out the entire time, but it was never super busy. Worker was on the phone I think with other customers, but was friendly either way. Ambiance was casual, a bit aged, not super fancy, but does the job.
