Food was delicious and super flavorful. Always love getting fresh groceries and produce from here and treating myself to a cold drink after! I recommend it for anyone looking to experimenting with tasting new foods and changing things up in your kitchen!
Always love coming here!!! They always have new things to try whether its from the cafe for hot food or from the grocery side. Today we tried their spam fried rice and bulgogi rice. They were so delicious!!! And of course we HAD to have some tokpoki and fried dumplings. We were so excited to eat that I forgot to take pictures! I highly recommend for anyone looking for new snacks or foods to try. You wont be disappointed.
You want Korean snacks? Step right up to this market. Best place Ill ever spend my money in
My daughter likes going to this store. Today they didnt have spicey seaweed.
Amazing customer service, really nice and clean, it looks like they are working on a cafe area, and I am really looking forward to that!!The owner is super cool and tries to please the customers and try to get to know them, I visited twice and the owner is super nice, and always walking around saying hi and greeting the customers, the employees seem to like working there.The music is good and everybody makes you feel welcome and the location is good :)
Literally my favorite place to go for kimchi and microwaveable rice. I plan out my day, driving from Brownsville to McAllen, just to restock on a few things. Must haves: frozen udon soup kit, kimchi, pack of wooden chopsticks, BTS cold brew, and plum sauce ✨🥲
Great nice and simple market in the Rio Grande Valley. Found what we needed.
Amazing product variety! It is my families go to stop for lunch or just to pick up snacks. The workers are always really friendly and the store is always really clean. I recommend this place 1000%!
Every time I go its like I discover something new. Sometimes what Im looking for isnt there because it sold out but Ill find something similar and wont be disappointed. Friendly staff and amazing food, wife loves going and finding new items
This place is amazing. They got great variety of things and i have found new things to try and make. They always have stock on things and I found they bring new things from time to time. So please give this place a try and let me know what you think
Come here once a week to restock our supplies ...so far this is one of the best asian markets in the RGV
The store had food & snacks that I ate during childhood. McAllen has definitely grown and become diverse.
Really cool market with lots of interesting things inside. They had a large variety of drinks, coffees, noodles, frozen foods, and desserts. The employees were very nice as well.
Is a SuperMarket ....found the stuff we wanted so we are happy
One of the Best korea market Ive been in years, nice employees everything is clean and organized
One of the absolutely best Asian markets around. Quite a bit of variety (not just food, but also beauty supplies, utensils, dishes, and other similar items) and a great place to go shopping. They also have a small cafe area (currently closed due to COVID as far as I know) that sells and makes dishes using products that are in house. You can sometimes purchase specific items in bulk if they are in stock and some specialty items/products for Asian dishes. They have a large freezer selection of premade and raw food for you to take home and cook/taste. There is a small grocery near the front with items that are limited in stock but useful as a part of many Asian dishes. A great little place to find something new and stock up, especially if you are interested in Asian culture. Products are a mixture of asian cultures but most prominent (that I know of at least) are Korean and Japanese with others mixed in.
My daughter and I go here frequently and has great prices and selection of items.
I like Seoul Asian Market because of the variety of products. It is located right of the expressway,next to Papaduauxs in Pharr. They have a vast selection of frozen products, and a good selection of hard to find produce. Also, thete is a limited take- out menu at the register where you can order Asian food to go. You simply order and get it at the pick-up window at the kitchen. The staff is friendly and helpful, so if you want to try your hand at cooking something different, or order out something different, this is the place for you.
Cashiers are always the sweetest and when I go its never too busy. Im glad I found out about this place because isnt that many Asian markets in the Valley.
Take it from a Korean from Korea: the food at the cafe here is legit. I was shocked to find this in McAllen. Cant recommend the food enough.
It’s one of my favorite asian market in the valley! It’s very central(next to Main event & one black away from costco)and a great selection of fresh veggies!!This place has everything you need and plenty of space and the parking is super handy! Oh snap!! It’s clean!!!!!If you are looking for any kinds of asian options, SAMC has an assortment to meet your needs.
Highly recommend ! Cafe portions ate reasonable for the price.
Absolutely delicious and ready quickly! We got the kimchi fried rice, which was yummy! The bulgogi was definitely our favorite! The pork dumplings are also super yummy! We took to-go and it smelled so good all the way home! Well be back for more deliciousness.
Great variety of food, snacks, beauty, and houseware. The manager was very helpful
Helpful staff, a variety of korean food and very reasonable prices. The environment inspires you to want to start making your own asian recipes from home.
Great selection if food easy to find, staff friendly & helpful
Im a big fanatic of asian food and culture, I absolutely loved this place!!Great variety and lots of yummy food/snacks to try. Theres also going to be a cafe here soon which I am sooo looking forward to!!😍😍 staff were very nice and welcoming, theres fresh food made daily and its delicious!! Reccomended to anyone. I am very happy with my visit. I had so much stuff i wanted to try
Went in for the first time today after hearing about it and was not disappointed at all! I actually went back the same day with friends to buy more because i felt like i didnt get enough the first time. Great atmosphere, awesome workers and just over all such a nice vibe. Most definitely will be making it a go-to spot
You can find all your Asian favorite here
Very clean, variety of items, pricing good.
I shop here not only because of the selection, but because of the prices. I am very selective and find the quality of the items I need to be outstanding. The store is very clean and does not smell like your typical big city Asian grocery market. I hope you continue to grow and be profitable, especially in these trying times. I, for one, will gladly continue to shop and get my Asian fix on!
Super cool place. Will be back.
Love it here, can find a lot of the stuff I love and not to bad on the prices
Loved it!!! Found everything I needed. It is well stocked and service was good. Will come back again
Everything is great! i enjoy going there to buy snacks
One of my favorite places in the valley! Love their selection of different foods and drinks. Suggest trying their banana melon and strawberry milks, topokki, korean pancake mix, ramen, and many many spices to make your food taste amazing. We never get tired of korean food. Plus they have a great selection of hot food. Tonkatsu, bibimbap, and the topokki are amazing.
A cozy shoping place with a little bit of everything.
Ive been going to this store since they were in the past location. Its very well stocked. From the cafe I have only tried the kimbap but is seriously the best!
Grocery staff not helpful at all.
The staff is always kind and helpful. And I would strongly recommend going and seeing all that they have to offer.
A great variety of products to choose from, really neat and clean. Helpful and friendly staff
Always good people with lots of yummy food and snacks :)
Is the Café part open? Or Take out?Nice to have you in the valley for transplants like me.
They have a lot of different types of sweet treats to try.
This is one of my favorite lunch spots. The atmosphere is great. My favorite meal is the Bulgogi. The meat has so much flavor. Greatly seasoned, and safe for those who are not fond of spicy food. The noodles are very good too. I love spicy food, so I ask for extra spicy. The side dishes are all tasty. The building is divided into the eating area and the market so you can enjoy a snack after your meal.
Came to look around after the movies, i was actually full, BUT took one look at the menu and i just couldn’t say no. The pork dumplings were amazing good crisp to them and the filling was very flavorful. My favorite so far from the valley. The rest of our food was delicious and the presentation is so clean and beautiful yet minimalist and contemporary.
Such a cool place to go.
Very great place I go there once in a while but I have a question do u guys have tapioca starch cause I have not look for it?
They had a great variety of foods;however, they were low on desserts but i think its due to corona. Other than that, i highly recommend:)
Especial food!
Good food.
Tons of fun things to try and even see. A buddy and I drove over from the other side of the valley to check it out. Well worth a visit every other month if you live far away, (weekly if you live nearby!). Definitely Korean leaning, and not in a bad way! Yes they have rice, soju, korean ramen-but for those of you who dabble in cooking tons of raw frozen ingredients. I could go on but its better if you give them a visit yourself!
Great place
Whenever I get the chance, I come around and get myself some snacks. The atmosphere is lovely and the staff is just as wonderful. I tried one of their dishes today and was not disappointed. I will most certainly try more (:
The people were very helpful and friendly
Love coming here!
Love this place, they have all my asian cravings and the cafe is super cute with delicious food! If youre looking for the spicy noodle sauce, they have it, in regular spicy and 2× spicy too! Lots of nice refreshing drinks too!
First time visiting a Korean place. Wanted to surprise my sister and bring her here, since she’s very much into Korean culture and music. Very pleasant experience. Multiple items in market to try out, even Korean Cheetos! Tried 3 items from Cafe. Love the kid’s fried rice and the bimbimbap. Also had the ramen. Would eat all three again! It was shared among 3 of us, my son included who’s very picky! 💕
Very simple and neat! Tried fried rice at the cafe and it’s delicious and somewhat unique in its own way. Will definitely come again!
Delicious!
Absolutely love the food here! My husband and I love it so much we come often. Satisfies all our Korean food cravings, and I love the market for when I feel like cooking at home!
Very nice place
Good selection of products. Helpful staff. Also good food from kitchen.
The Best Asian Market in South Texas
So glad that this decent Korean market is finally open! I like how this place is very neat and clean. They dont carry complete list of Korean grocery items, but you can find the basic ones.
Great place to shop for Asian food. Selection is great compared to anything around the valley. Any questions are answered quickly by the staff there .since the majority of the labeling on the products are in Asian. Will keep coming back.
I totally LOVE THIS PLACE!!! They have a great variety of things from frozen food, from noodles, pastries, sweet breads and of course drinks. Very economical compared to the other store. Here I can find anything I want for Korean dishes and also the owners are really nice and she sometimes help me if I have a question for my dishes. Across the store the Korean restaurant is like a little heaven to me.. the Grandma is really nice, I go to eat on my free days and its really delicious and it feels Im in Seoul. I totally recommend to go and eat there, clean and lots of side dishes compared to other Korean restaurants.
I love the food. The staff is very friendly, and the environment is very relaxing. This is one of my favorite spots during lunch time.
Very picky when it comes to food and this place is really good. Simple menu good food to shop for, also chilled coffee is the best.
The food and the atmosphere of this place was great. The prices for everything are good too, and there’s a great variety of snacks to try and get an insight of the culture.
Awesome food! Nice people! Worth the drive over from the coast. We’ll be back next week.
Really nice service. Always have what I am looking for! Completely recommend.
First time ever going to am Asian market. It doesnt have a lot of things bit does have enough to be interested cuz I certainly was. But its still new. I hope more products come to the store.great place
Lively atmosphere and they have a variety of Asian foods. There is even a dinning area inside and they sell a variety of dishes.
Its fantastic & the food is Delicious also good customer service
Cool store with great sit down eatery inside. Staff is very helpful. The food is really, really good.
Although small, the variety of items/ingredients you can get here is good, and the prices make them even better. Its far from where I live but I definitely dont mind the drive once in a while. The staff is also very friendly.
My favorite place to eat in the valley :D all the dishes are delicious and the people are so nice! Great place overall!
Good experience 🙂
Its the only korean store, i know that is located in pharr and it very good, i love it
I love this place!
Love the selection of this place’s grocery selection and their cafe. Can’t go wrong with the spicy pork bulgogi, really good but really hot if you pick a level 4 or 5 heat.
