Pretty small selection for groceries and disappointing prices. They sell other Asian things so that’s nice. The cash registrar was kinda cute.

Great little Asian market. It doesnt have everything, but it has the Asian pantry essentials that save me from having to drive 30-45 minutes to the Asian markets in East Valley. Highly recommend for Asian kitchen staples. Just know its a smaller selection than going to Mekong or Asiana.

I love this little store. I wish they had a wider variety of Ramen and osenbei. The pottery is pretty, and just so you know- They no longer sell the shooter sizes of umeshu

Tons of specialty items crammed into a tiny place. Good idea to have a list of what you’re looking for before showing up. Owner was helpful and delightful.

This a great place to find hard to find Asian, and some Dutch, foods and supplies. I mainly go here to pick up Arizona Sake. It has been rated as one of the top sakes in the world, both at the 2018 Tokyo Sake Competition and the 2019 LA Wine Competition. They have both 500ml and 750ml bottles.

Scottsdales best Asian market. Okay, only Asian market. Around half of the floor space is groceries and the other half is novelties, its too small to expect a true supermarket experience. Yet they always seem to have what I came looking for and then some. Great Sriracha pricing; good sake selection; specialty ingredients galore.

Its a okay store, but I expected to see more groceries and drinks. They didnt have any unsweetened green tea drinks that are sold in every asian store. They only had them in cans, but not bottles. Not a big selection of candy either. I got me the last almond pockys. But they do have a good variety of dishes and japanese decorations.
