Love the selection, love the produce, love the sauces/condiments. The frozen section is a hit or miss, found some fish balls from 2018 today, but also found some really cool dumplings to try. Just check the dates first and youll have a great shopping experience.

Best shop in the area.. Though small, jam packed with goodies and essential groceries. The fresh produce section was very distinct and variety was good. They even had vegetarian oyster sauce which is a hard find

Small Asian grocery store.I purchased 1 bottle of Emperor peanut oil (25 FL oz), $6.99. Not cold or expelled pressed, but labeled as 100% pure. Was hoping to find House of Tsang stir fry oil flavored with garlic, ginger and onion which Ive only found on Amazon.I wasnt sure my item was comparatively priced. I later found Organic peanut oil at Costco (16 FL oz) $8.99 and expelled press at Vitacost (16 FL oz) for $6.78. Sometimes you have to go local and hope for the best.Peanut oil has a high smoke point. I used a small amount to wok some chicken strips and veggies. You dont need much as I found it coated the pan nicely.Single staff person was very friendly and helpful.

Wonderful little store that has everything that you could possibly want and you got a check out their dessert freezer it is absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend this little store, it may be a little but they have almost everything and it’s tasty fresh and delicious.

If you want to shop Asia grocery, this is the right place. I could find anything I want here. It’s also best known for the tropical fruits. The fruits are available based on the season. You can give the store a call before heading here to make sure you can find what you are looking for.

Man behind the counter was rude and even made fun of a teenager who came in with his mother. Not a lot of selection. Go somewhere else.

This place is awesome. They were quick at responding to my message. I was looking for frozen mackerel which I found at a very affordable price compared to other places. It is the place to shop if you are looking for something international. The girl at the front was very polite and patient. I will definitely be back.

I like coming here to buy kimchi! They have one of the best kimchi’s I have tried! Frozen food as well as fresh produce are also available. Just be prepared to spend because you can’t help but try and buy everything that you like lol! They also have raw duck eggs! My husband was so happy we had to buy! Cooked them when we got home and he said it was soo good! He really loves balut!

I always find something different and the produce pricing is better than other local stores on many items. Today I noticed several potted plants available. Peppers, Guava, Papaya etc.

Great quality items, wonderful customer service. Delightful neighborhood grocery store for all your needs. This place has great selection of Asian type goods, I had a tough time leaving because I couldnt figure out what I wanted because theres so many things to choose from. I will have to definitely come back because I must try all these different choices!

Review №26

Very clean and welcoming shop. :)It has all of the usual staples of an Asian mart (and that encompasses most of Asia, too, not just a handful of popular items from, say, only China/Japan/Korea, as is the case with many Asian groceries or such), along with some harder to find items. Produce section is probably one of the best that Ive seen, anywhere (seriously!--very fresh and very large fruits and veggies, etc). Price is competitive with all other Asian markets in the area, so no complaints. Will definitely return!!

Review №32

I came here due to all the great reviews and it being the closest market to my place. This place was lacking. Not much selection. The guy working the counter wasnt friendly. I moved from Tallahassee a month ago and the market I used to frequent there was great. This place... not so much. This place is only good for produce. I want dried and frozen goods. This place isnt good for my needs. Im going to check out other markets in the city.

Came from Connecticut visiting Jacksonville. We were looking for an Asian Store to grab some Asian Groceries and came across this Gem tucked away on a side street. The owner was very pleasant and helpful. We found everything we needed and more. Will definitely visit again when we visit Jacksonville next time.

A sub-par dry goods selection. The frozen foods are plentiful, but small selection of Chinese offerings. The fresh produce is varied and looks good. I think that its a good alternative if you cant make it somewhere larger.

Great place for the speciality Asian items. The prices are great. Many sauces are cheaper than even Publix. They also have great fresh herbs at amazing prices. We found this gem right around the corner from our house and shop here frequently.

During my time living in the area I had the immense good fortune to come across this gem of a store. Enjoyed browsing the shop with one of my flatmates picking out authentic asian noodle kits (daring eachother who could find the spiciest in the store), finding different stir fry bases to experiment with, and treating myself to a delicious Guava juice that I only wish I could find now. The shopkeepers were extremely helpful. I suffer from occassional extreme ditzyness and on a whim decided I wanted to make sushi. The shopkeeper took me throughout the store and helped me locate every single ingredient I would need to indulge my whimsical craving for a homemade California Roll (including the sushi mat!). This level of service is something you really see very little of anymore. The guys at Kong Grocery have created a lovely community grocery store that is clean, inviting, and remarkably affordable. I highly recommend a visit if you are in the area: if not because you need authentic Asian goods, then for a far more enjoyable and healthy shopping experience than you could ever hope to find at such a mundane and soulless place as a Walmart or Publix.
