Easy find based on country origin. Pretty good selection. Not easy to find parking spot, though.

There is no other place like this. Not only do they have the largest selection of Asian foods... They have one of the largest selections of seafood, unique produce, Indian food, Mexican, and Jamaican food. The prices are super reasonable and the owners are beyond helpful. Do not miss this place.

Yes, you can find quite interesting (and unexpected) fruits and vegetables, but the store needs some serious cleaning: several boxes and packages had a sticky, glue-y texture and the shelves have been collecting dust from ancient times. Needless to say there is a foul putrid smell that is kinda like rotten fish all over the place.

The owners are super nice and helpful and the store has a surprisingly broad selection. most of the negative reviews seem to be from people who don’t like asians.

The Ous are very nice. If you buy in bulk, they have the cheapest tofu in Pittsburgh. I love going in there, looking around, and having Mr. Ou sell me something interesting I havent had before.

Was a patron for over 10 years. The store was always dingy with dust covering the dishes and housewares. However, The owners were nice enough and the husband likes to follow behind and watch you shop as he talks about everything.When they began to sell Pepper Paste, I was too happy, until the sell by dates was expired too many times to count, so I had to buy elsewhere. Today was the last straw and sadly, This store has lost my business.Went to buy dumpling wrappers, but the doors were locked. The store owner opened the doors claiming they are short handed and have a wholesale order, so I cant take too long. I think, thats understandable, so I hurry to the freezer section.He begins to talk about how they dont rely on retail, but are a wholesale company and yada yada. I smile as his wife rings me up for $2.00. When revealing my debit card, they both point to a low posted sign, stating that I must buy $10.00 worth of items in order to use my debit card.I turn and buy more wrappers and sesame oil, while a nice lady enters the store. The husband tells her.. We have to close soon. . She smiles and keeps shopping, of course the husband just had to keep talking about the credit card. Its very expensive to use card. You get cash back, but we have to pay. The wife kept asking if we needed a bag ( an extra 7 cents). I answer no multiple times, thank them both, then exit the store.Thats when I decided, I would no longer give this business my money.1: Store was closed early without signs or internet notice.2: Was rushed because a Bigger order was more important, than a loyal customer.3: Credit card fees are passed onto me.4: Its easier to get all my supplies in the Strip.

My favorite place!!! The family who owns it is always there and very helpful. Theyre excited to order difficult to find items on top of their already great selection. Every Friday they get in new specialty produce like lyees and baby bok Choy and dragon fruit!

Sometimes the owners smile at you and sometimes they don’t. The store is always dusty and dirty. I tried to buy $2 worth of items and the lady insisted that I buy “more” it could add up to 5/10$. I guess they need the money lol. I also thought this store was suppose to close down because the owners children didn’t want to work here.
