Whatever you do do not!! I repeat do not!! Buy roast duck from this place I made the mistake of purchasing to roast duck both ducks had an odor like rotting meat when I open the container I went back to the store with both ducks immediately the short Chinese lady whos the manager there and the owner had nerves to say it does not smell bad its fine then told me to get out of her store and never come back let me point out a fact they sell Meats there which I would never buy if you take a walk to the freezer youd clearly seen that was made for not probably frozen and theyre just rotting in that pathetic freezer theyre using rotting meat to sell why has the health department not stepped in and shut them down

I went here for one thing... oriental soup bowls. They have lots of them and they are reasonably priced. They also have lots of teapots, plates, sake sets and utensils. Pretty broad range of food items but not as extensive as Super G. Unfortunately the store and shopping center its located in is really run down. Theyve been in business a long time so they must be doing something right.

Had a lot of hard to find products. Fish looked very fresh and they have roast duck. Not the nicest store but it was clean and had a wide selection of all sorts of products you cant find in a regular supermarket.

Was once the place to shop for international grocery. Still carry items hard to find elsewhere. Do not miss the deli and bakery items on weekends.

Could use better organization methods, have fresher products, and better customer service. I understand its a business but you should really learn to take the time to listen to our questions instead of just quickly charging us so you can make a quick buck. I shouldve just taken my MIL and walked out and not let her buy 2 bags of rice from you when we just simply wanted to ask how much it was but instead the cashier went ahead and charged us for 2 bags and took my MILs card. Never coming back here again.

A lot of the stuff has no price mark. And sometimes they mark the price on it . But when you go up to pay at the cashier . The price ring up higher than it marked . Thats a scam. Definitely will not go back.

Really cool shopping center. It is run down and can feel sketchy but honestly its just because its old. The people there are so friendly. Was really a cultural experience. I bought all kinds of foods ive never seen in our mainstream grocery stores and cant wait to try them. I really appreciated it.

Everything in there is completely broke down. Dont really have anything in there to purchase. Wouldnt recommend buying any package good as the dates are no longer in the packages. Better off going 2 doors down to the other market.

This is the highlight of Asian Corner Mall. I wish they were in a better location. Of the large Asian supermarkets in Charlotte (Super G, New Asia Market), this is seemingly the largest, but also the most run-down. I dont really like going here but sometimes theyre the only place that has what we need.

Pretty run down and located in a strip mall that doesnt seem to get much business, but dont let appearance scares you. The place has good selections of instant noodles brands.

Review β„–23

The fact they have such a variety in just about every culture of foods and ingredients is really nice, and the fact that its a lot more to try and nice hospitality from the clerks there is a plus. They got a lot if stuff to try and for good prices

Review β„–24

Great prices, good selection. They have fresh and frozen fish as well as a selection of other meats and fresh vegetables for great prices. The Filipino section has shrunk in the last few years but the Vietnamese, Chinese, and Jamaican sections are still strong. The hot BBQ pork, roast pork and roast duck are delicious as are the steamed buns and boba tea. They have a huge assortment of spices, seasonings, noodles, as well as dinnerware and cookware

I wish they will clean their store up so it will look a little better. I feel like its kinda empty.I have to say this place, there customer service is getting worser and worser. I mean, the lady can be sitting there and she clearly see us waiting and she refuse to speak and or ask us if we need anything. If you dont want to serve the public, get a new job.

The mall is run down. The parking lot has potholes that swallows your car. But those arent reasons why you shop here. Friendly people. Broad assortment of the Asian food items you want. Exotic fruits. Fair prices.

Review β„–31

Theres something post-apocalyptic about this place; the whole mall in general, really. There are huge expansive isles each dedicated to specific regions, like Korea, Indonesia, Jamaica, etc. Fresh fruits and veggies are available, but selection can be hit or miss. Lots of hard to find specialty items for Asian cooking, including utensils and cooking supplies. Fresh fish available along with a small dim sum counter. Frozen section with dumplings and seafood galore. Theres one isle of noodles thats about a mile long.

Review β„–34

I kind of like this place, mostly because it is close to me, but the lady that is usually at the second cash register is very rude and not friendly at all. I do not want to check out with with if the older lady at the first cash register is open. Whenever I ask her a question, she either pretends not to hear me or replies very rudely. Not have time for customers. The last time I was there, I had a question, and she had had the nerve to push me aside because another just came behind me to check out. And, she didnt even answer my question. She need to reevaluate her attitude. My friend also complained about her which made me realize that it is not her, but her(the employee) that is the problem. I will not be coming here again or wont check out my products if she is the only one opened. Also act like she is being forced to work. Very very rude.

Unfortunately sells too many out dated articles and prices were extremely high. Was excited with the thought of having an oriental super market near by only to be dissapointed.

Review β„–40

The best Asian market in Charlotte - you just have to be okay with the following things.1) Theres not a whole lot of intuitive organization to the store, and aisles change from time to time, so you pretty much have to walk down all of them to know what you want.2) There is effectively no customer service. Find what you want, bring it to the front.3) The parking lot outside is in terrible repair, and its clearly not in a great part of town.For all of that, it has a great selection - I pick up all sorts of hard-to-find ingredients here, for pretty good prices - especially if you want to buy Asian ingredients like mirin or fish sauce in bulk. Theres also a small hot foods section, and I can definitely recommend the steamed buns they have there.

Dirty and cannot believe they are still in business. There are molds all over the ceilings and in the freezers. Most of their stuff are old or expired. Especially in the freezer, you could tell that it has been sitting here for ages. Restroom smells like cigeratte smoke. Disgusting.

This is the best International Grocery I have been to in Charlotte. There is an extensive selection of Asian food as well as Latin American and African sections. It is extremely large, like the size of a commercial chain grocery such as Harris Teeter or Food Lion.Dont be scared away by the strip mall it is in! There are tons of treasures inside worth exploring.

Half of their food products are either expired or about to expire, and yet they have the nerve to sell them to the uninformed customers. Youd be much better off going dumpster dive than shopping in this s**t hole.

Review β„–49

Okay you all, I will most agreed with hotpapaya! With the Asian supermarkets these two in the same shopping center you have to watch out on what you purchase. One day, last year, I was in the new century market was shopping for stuff to make dinner with, but was discouraged on what I saw in there. As I was walking around to find my selection where I finally did, the canned good product was expired. On it says expired 07-2011. So than I walk around to the fresh vegetables area and the mushroom have mold growing on it. But hopefully they change their policy on having fresh food in the store. I end up buying some cabbage and Napa thats it.

This asian store is located in abandoned mall, the road full with potholes. My first expression for the location/store appearance was ...Ghetto and dangerous, The store itself doesnt look clean and a bit smelly but almost all Asian store smells like that. they do have great price and there you can find all kind of Asian cooking ingredients you need and delicious asian treats. This time I went there for their delicious roast duck and roast pork. They are taste AMAZING. Two guys whose works at that Roast department actually very friendly. I definitely recommend this place for their roast duck and roast pork. I wish the owner start cleaning/reorganise / repainting this place someday ;)

Review β„–55

One of the worst place I have ever shopped at. Everything is overpriced, and besides that, everyone in there were really rude. I asked for help, and the old lady rolled her eyes and didnt speak English that good, so I had to ask her a few times and listen carefully before I gave up and walk out. I also did not feel safe at all too. The bathroom was gross; there were no doors to the toilets, and there was also a big hole in the middle of the floor. I swear, I saw a dead fish floating in the tanks too. I will not ever visit this place again.

The plaza outside is maintained poorly. I am OK with that since its in a poor neighborhood. The store is huge, with ample selections, and the price is about right.If you can stand the horrific Tainwanese 70s love songs being played (I really cant...), you will do fine in this place.

Review β„–61

Huge selection, and definitely authentic. Its the size of a large grocery store. If youre used to those rinky-dink Asian stores in strip malls the size of a nail salon, you will be blown away by this place. It is the real deal with a selection of frozen fish, rice noodles, soy sauces, beans, seaweed, mushrooms, etc. that defies the imagination.

This store is overpriced with a terrible produce section (the bananas were practically rotten), and it reeks of dead fish. Their customer service is some of the worst that Ive encountered, and this is coming from someone who frequents wholesale warehouses. Driving through the parking lot is a nightmare in its self. Overall, a 0/10 experience.
