I had a terrible experience. I ordered crab and request to have them clean, well the man told me No, hes not going to clean them, then turned to his coworkers and they said no clean. Ive been going there since 2004, always gotten the crab clean. Tried to charge me $75.00 for 3 crabs. I refused it and got in line with two TBone Steaks. A long wait, store crowded. No customer service. High prices. Terrible Experience. I do not want to go back, not at all.

This supermarket is more an oriental supermarket compared with the likes of Safeway, Lucky or Foodmaxx. It’s geared more towards Asian community. The store is medium size but it carries most of what you need for your daily routines. It has departments you would expect to find in an oriental market like live seafood, fresh meats, packaged meats, dairy and staples such as rice, etc. It also offers free fish frying service. The price is mostly on par with other stores if not slightly more. You need to inspect expiry date of items you buy because sometimes their items expire and they still put it on the shelves. It’s best to go in the morning when it’s not too busy. Overall its 3.5 stars experience. Please Like it if you find this review helpful or useful.

Very similar to ranch 99 and its size and its selection. Lots of Asian customers buying fresh fish. Id say its a mix of a Mexican market Indonesian market. Perfect for the demographics of the area. A little pricey

Parking lot is always crazy but today I was able to get in and out with no problems. My daughters love this instant soup that they sale so I go there at least once a month. Today no cars were holding up traffic and when I came out no car was blocking me. So today was a good day. Lol

Since Im an Asian I buy some food products in this market and they are moderate in quality but expensive like the price range of some organic stores. Today I had a bad experience with their store manager and clerk. The store manager who at first I didnt recognize because she mopped the floor wet and blocked me from falling in line. Since I had to make myself safe I moved out from the very slippery floor not realizing I was already close to the other lady by the counter. The clerk on the counter shoved me out telling me to keep 6 feet distance which I could not because there were two people mopping the floor and its very slippery. We are older citizens and we should be careful not to break our bones. When I asked for the product from the clerk on the counter to pay it on another counter with a dry floor, the lady and the store manager didnt want to hand the product to me because they said I have to pay it on their counter where the floor was wet. When I confronted them they sounded like I owe them an apology for their unethical conduct in the workplace. OSHA must take a look at stores that put their customers at risk!!

This grocery store is dishonest. They sell expired products & rotten meats. They charge for different (higher) prices than the prices are shown on the shelves. Karma will come back to them.

Used to live in Cupertino, SJ area for a while and theres quite a few asian markets down there competing, so the groceries and deals offers are great. Now in this area the ranch 99 seems like the only choice so I trying to find another option. Then I found this one....I am totally disappointedThe products price are higher then 99, the produce are way more expensive, not only that the Veggies are not fresh, wilted... They even charged higher price... Give me a breakLast time here

Average Asian supermarket. Like the coconut water, even though price goes up recently, still can buy one today for $0.99 + 0.05 crv. You may find some cheap items, like classic cookies from Spain, only $0.99.

Its a knockoff of the 99 Ranch Market located in Richmond.The San Pablo Supermarket serves the Asian residents of the El Cerrito/San Pablo corridor.Since theyre the only Asian store in the area, their prices are slightly higher when compared to 99 Ranch Market.Their Chinese name Soon Fat has stores in Southern California.Although they use the same name 順發, their inventory is not the same.I went home to LA and I purchased some coffee from Soon Fat in Monterey Park.Folks in San Francisco asked me to get more, but unfortunately, the SP Supermarket did not carry it.It was somewhat of a disappointment as they use the same Asian name Soon Fat and theyre not the same.I gave it a courtesy 3 stars as having an Asian market in the area is better than none.

A nice variety of Asian food products. The produce section has the main staples. However, no individual garlic bulbs. The customer service is always friendly and helpful when I need their assistance. And the ladies at the registers are very pleasant when I check out. The store is tidy and I always find the products and produce I need when I shop, so my time there is quick. I want to suggest better labeling and pricing of items down the aisles. Anyhow, a decent and fairly complete Asian foods market with all right priced items.

I use to shop here years ago but its been a while since Ive been here.I stopped by to buy some fresh veggies, and to my surprise it was great! It looks like they did some remodeling!! I must have gone on a good day because all of the fruits and veggies were so fresh. And the store seems much brighter than before, they must have put in new lights!!Ill be going back here more often now!!!

Great back up to 99 Ranch, and has a lot of items more consistently, that 99 ranch does, particularly the Filipino foods section. Also has a nice liquor selection in the corner, and friendly folks. Part of San Pablo/El cerritos booming Asian market scene.

Review №51

It is what it claims to be, an Asian supermarket, with more of a Chinese slant on the majority of the items sold there. Having said that, the market has a section for Hispanic and western items, which I assume is a reflection of the local demographics. You can find many things from eastern Asian countries, such as Kecap Manis, which is a type of soy sauce from Indonesia, belacan, which is a fish paste from Malaysia, and all kinds of curry pastes from Thailand, to give you a general idea of the place. Its a supermarket, so if you have any notions of making some Asian dish, this is a good of a place to find the ingredients you would need, as well as some of the other places like it in this region.

I like the diversity of foods that are multinational, Asia, Latin America, the Caribbean. The fish and meat counter makes the big guys look pedestrian. There are 20 kinds of rice. I love when there is a holiday and what people are purchasing that is ethnically essential in their families. Glad they are here.

Stink bad smell all over. CrazySupermarket in business. Seems like something is dead. I will never ever go.Customers should be carefulNot hygiene at all. Feel bad for young children running around as could be E coli or some germs. Selection of fruits was good and spices excellent but due to clean and Stinky smell its the last day for me. Anyplace to shop should be clean and not like running away. I will go El cerrito Ranch market.
