The clerk is usually an older Korean lady who is super knowledgeable about all the ingredients in the shop and their... replacements. I'm yet to try the take out but the pantry side is small but very well stocked. Read more
I just moved to the neighborhood and really excited about this place. It has most everything to cook an Asian dish, Japanese,... Korean, Indian, maybe even Sri Lankan... Prices are inexpensive and the staff is extremely friendly. The fresh produce is goodlooking and fresh and the ready made food is tasty. I can see myself popping in here everyday. Read more
Was looking for a super hard to find ingredient for a meal. Looked through just about every Asian market/grocery store in the... state. This little tiny shop ACTUALLY HAD IT unlike G-Mart or H-Mart! I was so excited to just pick it up. Friendly service,Mrs. Kim was busy with something but made sure to say hi to me. I'll be sure to try some of the dishes to eat inside. Read more
So much high quality stuff packed into so little space. This is the oldest Asian grocery in New Haven, and the woman who owns it... knows every price of every item by heart and makes a mean eel bibimbap. I love the handwritten labels explaining what stuff isand the little section of dining sets. Read more
Literally this is the best Kimchi I have ever tried. Although there is not any label, you can definitely tell that it was hand... made by the nice Korean Ajumma. As an Asian I find myself quite fond of this traditional Korean food. The Bibimbap was fresh andabsolutely delicious. Not sure if it's the best one in town but it was not too sweet nor too salty. However it would be betterif the portion was bigger. Maybe more rice would do the work. Read more
This is hands down a 6 Star place. This is one of the few places I?ve ever debated about putting up a review, because I?m afraid... the business will get too good and I won?t be able to eat there myself. Love, love this joint. Not just a tiny asiansupermarket, but just the best Bibimbop in town. No shade to other places, this place is just that great. I?m sad Google willround this down to 5 stars. Read more
I've only eaten here once but it was so delicious that in the thousands of meals in my life my meal here stands out. I got... something with eel and it was incredible. 10/10 recommend this place! You need to try the food and the woman who runs it is sonice and pleasant. Read more
