This place seem to be ok, I got what I came for, but the register guy he seem not friendly.When I first entered, I like to buy the loterry, but see no one, so I asked the register guy and he told me came back later. I went on shopping and went out to paid, this same register guy helping me out and I asked him something, but he not understand me cause he is chinese and I asked in vietnamese. He asked the lady next to him in really mean voice to translate. He make me felt so uncomfortable like I shouldnt belong here or I begged him for food.I wouldnt recommend anyone shop here unless you have no other market near you to go for.

I have been going to this asian grocery store since I was 5 years old. It always smells awful there. It reminds me of an American version of a wet market. The groceries for sale are not always fresh. I have bought canned or boxed food that turned out to be 2 years past the expiration date, and even the freshly prepared items, such as vietnamese desserts or drinks that are delivered from a bakery have often been spoiled. They dont have a lot of choices for frozen food. They dont even have an actual freezer with doors either. The food is kept in freezers that have open tops and is inefficient at keeping the food frozen.

Went in looking for tamarind paste which is a pretty common ingredient in Thai cooking. Tried asking where it was. Guy shrugged and said idk somewhere, go find it. Asked another, couldn’t speak English. Looked around more, waited in line to ask cashier who is the only one who would answer, we don’t have it. Not worth the frustration.

One of the best store for Asian groceries and fish in bay area.

Deep fry your fish selection from from the butcher counter on the spot, huge snack selection from. The best Wasabi peas and nuts, shrimp snacks, hard candy in flavors like ginger. And this is the most civicly minded business I have encountered in the city

Review №15

No fill Asian supermarket with interesting selection of Asian cooking ingredients, and I only come here for certain ingredients. Regardless of the run-down look from the outside, they offer everything from kitchen supply to live seafood. I managed to find avocados of very decent quality, pandan flavour extract, and traditional Chinese clay pot.

Knew this place when it was called Lucky7 I like the place for rare finds. but you are on your own. I asked for something. got a hand gesture. (whatever that means - NOT GOOD. guessing its a no 🤔 ) In my opinion customer friendliness, a must - especially in this neighborhood. Also, the hours are not good. (I think they close at 7PM) Ive seen couple of expired stuff. So check the expiry before buying.

Review №21

The place looks kind of rundown, but they often have things that are hard to find elsewhere. And overall, their prices are usually lower than other, similar places.

Review №22

Shop cashier is being ridiculously rude to customer and ignorant and being very impatient without trying to answer simple questions. Store is dirty and messy not well kept up .

Ke
Review №23

This supermarket is ok, they leave their produce in boxes instead of taking them out and place them on the counter. Lots of stuff is also on the floor. I wish they could keep the store more organized.

Review №24

Great Asian market that carries a wide variety of Asian ingredients. Its an Asian market, folks, so if youre looking for a posh place to shop at, this aint it... but if you need a place to grab your Asian necessities this is it... been going here for years even before it was Me-Kong.

It has a strong smell of fish. Quite large. You can get all general grocery stuff.

Review №32

Place needs a mop bucket with lots of bleach. Around the the fish area there was some unidentified putrid odor. A thorough cleaning of the entire place is a must.

Review №33

This is the authentic Asian super market where you can pick up any ingredients that you wouldnt be able to at your typical American supermarkets. They have a decent seafood department and variety of Asian ingredients.

Review №34

Not a clean place. Spider webs are everywhere as well as mice droppings. Wont go back unless this is the last Asian supermarket in the city.

Review №35

This place has the more nostalgic feel of how Asian supermarkets used to be, and I like it. I also like how is not as busy as the others. I have found my new go-to spot for my groceries.

Review №36

Cheap Asian food. The prices here are much better than 99 Ranch

Mi
Review №37

This is a nice place to go shopping although cleanliness factor is really missing. There are a bunch of plastic tubes hung around the veggies acting as fly catchers and some of them have flies stuck in them. Then there is tofu which is left in an open box in one of the aisles and it looks really messy.However the options of seafood are pretty good. There also a decent variety of sauces and condiments here. Also lots fruits to choose frkm.

I have heard a rumor that Mekong Market is closing up shop. This does not surprise me as they are probably being put out of business because of cheaper prices elsewhere. Another thing the drags Mekong Market down is its not the cleanest store in the world

Dirtiest place on planet. Broken fixtures, holes in floor and grease and dust everywhere. Floor looked like it hasnt been mopped or even swept in months. Health and safety inspectors woukd fine and shut this place down if they ever visited.

They dont deserve one star - People who work there seem so miserable. The old lady behind the counter threw a basket on the floor and then kicked it to the side. The man who rang up my purchase was rude too. I bought meat there one time and it was not fresh. Dont go there if you have other options!

This place used to be called Lucky 7, given their street number, sad that they changed it to Me Kong. this is the older generation of Asian markets, a little dirty, a little dingy, a little smelly, but prices are cheaper.
