Easy location with ample parking. Pretty decent amount of produce. Some items looked to be going bad. I was very happy to know they have a good variety of vegetarian products. Thats a major plus. Ill be coming back for sure.

The shopping experience was better than I anticipated. I was there on Tuesday, so parking was plentiful; people in the market was helpful and efficient.

This is, by far, my favorite Oriental/Asian supermarket in Philadelphia (at least within the city limits). Wide variety of food and outstanding prices. Even if youre not a huge fan of various Asian cuisines, its worth stopping in just to check out the produce and meats/fish. Very good prices and is always clean. Staff hardly speaks English but that never seems to be a barrier. Rely on them for several staples in my pantry.

My God I just moved here and traveled to get some groceries, and it is the best market so far. Best staff ever, and patience of steel.

First Oriental Market not too busy nowadays. I guessed too much competition and a bit pricey compare to competitor in a few blocks away.. But back then this Supermarket is busy.Their Meat Department is the best compare to others Supermarket in around South Philly 👌.

Wide variety of produce, and great selection for meats such as chicken wings, beef, and even pork uteruses! But bring a friend that can speak the language. Or make sure you have a phone with decent translation software. Otherwise youre probably going to have some difficulty finding exactly what you need depending on what type of product it is.

Huge selection and very reasonable prices. I was attempting to make pho at home and easily found everything I needed and more!

Really great. Has what youre looking for, including many things Ive been having trouble finding at many other markets. Chill and spacious feel with the high ceilings + low shelves.

Nice place and they have everything I need

Awesome market! Absolutely full of everything you need for an Oriental diet

I wish the employees were more helpful to Americans.

Best place to go to for fish, I know they dont have to but I just wish 1 person spoke good English.

They have the famous brown sugar boba ice cream! We always make a stop here on our way to upstate NY whenever we visit. They have so much options!

Interesting place to go; the wife is Asian, & after 10 years, Im still asking about the rare, & different items that are available there. Very clean, friendly staff. Nice place to go.

Kind staff, and great variety and selection.

Always a great selection. Fun place to visit and try new foods.

I like the fact that theres free parking and I usually find everything I need. I would advise you to be prepared not to find even one person who speaks English working here🤔, thats a serious problem for me!!! Unfortunately you would think I should be use to this when it comes to a lot of Asian establishments. Especially if you are a person of color... Insert tiny 🎻 here... sad but true so be ready and thats why I rated them 3 ⭐.

This is a true oriental supermarket. The variety and low prices are just great. They have a live fish section and will clean your pick but not fillet it. The frozen section has Indian, Chinese, Vietnamese and Japanese selections.

So many great finds!!

The fish, vegetables and canned foods are placed systematically so that it was not difficult for me to find the stuff I needed. Its a market that has a lot of different kinds of Asian food, such as DURIAN the exotic fruit which either you will love or hate for the rest of your life.

Great Oriental Market with tons of great items. Going to make Pho

They opening early in the morning easy for me to shop after work.

Little pricey comepare to Hung VOng

I always bought my fresh seafood here.

I see lots of people talking about the staff and rude treatment. They should know thats how they run things. The staff have been there for years and dont have time to be nice to you, its not going to change anytime soon. Theyre Asian elderlies, what did you expect? As for the shopping experience, they change the layout too frequently, especially the freezer section. Products go on and off shelfs randomly so theres never a consistent selection. Their range of products isnt as extensive, more focused on Chinese and Vietnamese cuisine.

Gteat food venue. Sorry its not in my neighborhood

Awesome variety of fresh vegetables!

Staff is incredibly rude, especially if you go anywhere in the last hour of them being open, but the meat counter guys are pretty nice for the most part. Not the dirtiest market in Philly. Definitely best Asian grocery store on Washington Ave if youre not looking for very niche products. Just dont go there expecting to be treated well. Find what you need and get out. ALWAYS avoid cashier lane #1.

This is a great market. They have a wide range of groceries and also some home goods and kitchen wares. The produce is generally really fresh and way cheaper than the big grocery store chains.

Great service, friendly staff, fair prices

Vegan heaven, all the May Wah I wanted without me having to pay shipping fees😘😘😘...My go to spot for Wonton wraps and the big size shrimp roll wraps. Thanks to my big brother finding this place for me... Even the wafers.. Ohhhhhhh yeah the prices are excellent nothing to break your pockets... Will be coming back.... P. s. The staff and some customers was very helpful all around good place..

So many beautiful woman shop there

This is a place I loved to go for asian grocery !! And I find all what I need !

Nice selection of vegan and vegetarian items, though you’ll have to weed through the omnivore items to find them. Service is okay. If you spend a certain amount, you get a free gift at checkout. Nice touch. Some items are pricey, though definitely much cheaper than PoSharp Store (online) or Amazon. Produce and fruits a bit pricey, too. Not bad overall, though. I visit again and again.

A nice local market for Asian goods at a non-import price. There are mostly Chinese and Vietnamese items but there are things such as Japanese and Korean snacks as well. The selection is mostly like a grocery store.

Great orices, unusal food, nice tableware

They have banana blossom, oyster mushrooms and good prices on tofu everything a good vegan needs not to mention live/fresh fish for my pescatarian friends and plenty of rice and bean flours for my gluten free friends, a good section of fruits and vegetables too

Has lots of things to buy with cheap prices. 2nd biggest asian market in Philly. Has fresh seafood and lots of chinese and vietnamese spices.

The staff is rude and unfriendly to people of color...woe unto you if you experience a problem or has a question, and there is no single person in the store who can speak English..

Highly recommend the vegan and vegetarian frozen meat section. But do be prepared for some looks if your a non-asian person of color.

Went to this store only bc was in the area. Ive been here before and did not like it bc the cashier always rang up incorrectly. This happened several times in the past and thats why I dont like to go.Went here today again only bc was in the area Anna again rang up 2 items incorrectly. Brought up to their attention and all they ever say is sorry. They put in the wrong code and ended up paying more for the item.If you go here, watch them like a hawk!

It’s the nearest Asian market from my apartment and they have a good selection of products. I have great experience shopping here. The only concern is the market looks a little outdated and sometimes the products are hard to find on the shelf because they change the layout. But no major downside of this market.

So fresh and such variety! Well stocked and well maintained! Many exotic fruits to choose from that I have been unable to find locally!

Love shopping at this store.I have been shopping here since they open. I have shop at other store but this in my favorite. ❤

If your looking for a great Asian market look no further! They always have ripe exotic fruits and fresh vegetables. I always seem to find what I need to make a good Asian inspired dish that I can’t find at the other international markets around Philly. Be advised that some of the other products may be a bit more expensive but this is my go to for authentic Asian ingredients. Fish is always fresh and they have a great variety

Crowded with stuff and Everything is just thrown on the selvels . You will have a strong pounder and is coming from both the died and the alive animals . The good this about it is that there is a lot of things you can get and you can walk around a lot . You might like it if you like to look at stuffs and waste of time .

Great selection and prices for diverse range of products,could be more cashiers for this popular shopping spot.

Great place to shop for fresh fish and other oriental foods.

Its a supermarket, what you expect

Big Asian market with a large selection of fruit, veggies, and all sorts of Asian foods.Do you like Asian markets? Then go to this one.

This place has a big selection of Asian products with rolls of the same items from different manufacturers for you to choose from. The produce is fresh. Ive never bought meat so I cant review that department. If youre a novice to cooking Asian recipes & using products as I am, major suggestion would be to research & have your ingredient list, or recipe with you. Some produce items are so different from American items. And definitely more staff that can speak English would be a great help.

Love the place. So many different types of food.

Heathy great authentic food?she you best minth

This is probably the largest of the Asian markets in the metro area. When I first heard of this place I thought it wouldnt be as big or as good. I was surely wrong. This is a really good place to get plenty of groceries from China, Phillipines, Japan, Korea and a few other Asian nations. Service was nice, people were nice and prices are very good in general.

They are always fully stocked and have whatever you need five star rating for sure

Hit or miss selection compared to other Asian markets in the city, I will say its very clean though.

Its has the grocery I need, depending what day of the week it is. In the winter it is very ice cold inside.

We love this place because you can get many Asian grocery items under one roof. The pork in this place is very fresh and excellent price,

Amazingly huge Asian Grocery! Large produce section and so many fresh Asian fruits and vegetables. Live fish also. Large selection of frozen foods and ice cream. You can also buy freshly made cakes and tofu and other Asian delectables. Ceramic needs and electric appliances are available. Very worth a visit.

I really like this super market because of its close proximity to the BSL Ellsworth-Federal subway stop.The prices here are cheaper than H Mart in Upper Darby, and somewhat on par with 1st Oriental market that is also on Washington ave. The name of this market is Vietnamese, but the food within is a mixture of mostly Chinese with some Korean, Japanese, and Southeast Asian. The store music is Chinese, as well as the workers, so there must have been a change of ownership. It is definitely far more diverse than 1st Oriental market. I dont think Ill be going back to the H Mart because of the higher prices and of the shopping experience at the Upper Darby location.

Not friendly fish cleaners

Asian supermarket with good selections of frest veggies, meat and fish

This is my to-go Asian market since its the closest one by my house. It has everything I need like fresh veggies, variety of spices, and several ingredients from Asia. Sadly, there is no restrooms provided. The parking lot can be difficult to find during rush hour. A selective cashier can speak English. Most staffs cant speak English. Its hard to ask questions a lot of time, so you need to know what youre looking for.

Great place but poor customer service. Especially the lady (short hair with glasses) at the first register near the exit. Always giving out wrong changes and need to handle her attitudes towards customers.

Basically like everyone else stated, theyre super friendly. They have a selection of items thats to be expected of a local neighborhood market, plus a giant wine selection. Prices are lower than the average San Francisco places (normal anywhere else). Anyway, couldnt pass up the opportunity to give this place 5 stars when it deserves it.

This place has everything you need/want...and you can buy in bulk! Their produce is on point! Their meat and poultry is always fresh! Some of the best prices in the city.. Id recommend to anyone!

Had what I wanted and it was easy to locate eventhough the place is big but they need more parking space.

Here i can find asian goodies and asian veggies and fruits that regular supermarket dont have.

Great selection of fresh produce and fish, plus abundant packaged imported goods. Great prices! The only downside is the oddly earthy smell, which Im assuming comes from a combination of the fresh produce bales up front and the filters from the live tilapia tanks in the rear of the store. Overall- would strongly recommend!

The shelf are full of varieties of things and the fish area is very Clean. I meant the store in general

Love the store. It is clean and friendly, compared with similar stores. The vegetables are fresh and reasonably priced. Much better than H-mart in Upper Darby.

If you are near 6th and Washington and you are feeling the urge to be adventurous, this place is worth an hour just to walk around if your not familiar with Asian markets! If instead you are looking for a great market with pretty much anything Asian you want or need this is the place to go! Fresh seafood swimming in tanks, cut to order meats and all the produce one might need to do it right. One look at the 95% Asian customers lets you know they are the real thing.

This is my local grocer now and I absolutely love it. To the uninitiated, the store is a bit daunting because not everything has that corporate polish that you see in major grocers. Instead of that sheen, the store has nearly everything you need for Asian recipes on top of having a pharmacopoeia desk for traditional medicines. Not to mention, they have smoked and roasted duck ready for pickup for a quick and easy meal. The butchers desk is somewhat intimidating as very few people speak fluent English but so long as youre polite and clear with your requests, theyre more than happy to help you.Really, its local grocers like these they help feed and sustain communities like Bella Vista, and its worth overcoming your trepidation about leaving your comfort zone for the sake of exploring a different world of cuisine.

Best Asian grocery store Ive been to... Huge selection of produce and imports from many Asian countries. Great prices, easy to park, and they give you something free if you spend $50.

Very professional & I love their services so I shopped there regularly

Great

Vegan Chef paradise 💯💯

Great for Asian groceries. Fresh fish in the back. Huge variety of greens and veggies. Only negative is the fishy smell in the back. Parking sometimes an issue in weekends.

My favorite Asian grocery store. I can always find items here I need that other Asian grocery store do not carry. They have balut. ♥️

Best Asian supermarket we found in philly so far. Free parking is a big bonus. Watch out for the expiration date.

First oriental is a decent Asian market. The produce and bakery are good. They have some hard to find Thai foods also. If you are in the area its worth checking out.

As a Polish-American I am not typically found shopping in Asian groceries. This place is really great though. Its the closest grocery to my house, and they have pretty much everything I could need (Except bread?).

Always a pleasure to be here. Very friendly staff and fresh and nice products. I like shopping here

Had a lot of variety for Southeast Asians for a reasonable price. Try Pho Ha next door, so good.

Lots of wonderful food. Fresh fruit you cant find anywhere nearby in as good a condition. Bakery is excellent.

Love this place. Amazing selection of imported authentic Asian foods. Browsing is a great adventure.

Great Asian market. Butchers on duty. Fresh fish. Lots of greens. Tons of rice and rice noodles. All kinds of jared sauces.

I loved their seafood collection. Cheap prices, very friendly staff.

It stinks in there. Pricey! Large tea variety! Fresh roasted whole ducks and fresh fish.

I personally love this place! Due to its variety in exeptional Asian Products! I go there for the Soy Milks, Tomatoes, and Sauces, yuuuuummm! They have fresh baked Breads, and what I especially love, is how welcoming the Staff is, it feels like a Trip to Asia without having to travel, I go there every chance I get!

First time shopper ...love the way asain culture treats each other. So much respect... It was a good experience.

Go get cultured and get the funym. Or find your own secret ingredients

Very good selection, very helpful staff. Prices are good.

Been going here for almost 2 years now. This place is amazing. Just walk around, so much stuff to see and a way to be creative with dinner.

Clean. Well stocked. Friendly staff

Went to get raw shrimp

Got wide range of Chinese products, Suggestion : they need to put prices on items

Good selection of all asian products. Helpful staff. Good selection of Thai ingredients, which are not always easy to find.q

This place is so awesome. They have Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese and many other Asian culture food products... and the prices are decent... definitely recommend!

Small but has most of what I get in the supermarket sized stores in Philly. Owners are extremely nice and helpful. They have told me how to prepare some of the more unfamiliar ingredients. Good pre made Dim Sum, Vietnamese hoagies etc.
