The place to go for food and ingredients. Great quality store, not much to show on home goods.The owners being nice is definitely not overstated.So much packed into the shop!

Small but fun place. So many things all Japanese and Asian. I enjoy looking around those colorful many stuff.. We call it Disneyland in DC

Great store all things are available.

This place is small but it has everything you need to make Japanese food. I wish it’s closer to me. I’m glad I don’t have to travel to New Jersey to get Japanese ingredients. The staff was so nice too. Definitely will go back.

I love Hana Market! It’s a small store, but it’s packed with tons of yummy snacks and ingredients I can’t find anywhere else. My first visit was to find だしand Blendy coffee which I didn’t have any luck finding around DC. There are also a million flavors of Kit Kats 😋 Everyone who works here is so sweet too. ありがとうございます！

Best market in the world. Hands down. Old Japanese couple runs it, and are oh so kind. Are the only Japanese people I talk to in DC. Feels like home ❤️🥰

Literally the best place to go for Japanese groceries. From soup bases to snacks to tableware to shower products to non-alcoholic beverages to frozen imported meats/fish.Prices can sometimes (emphasis on sometimes) seem inflated, but I assure you, its almost always worth it. For the things that do seem on the expensive side, take into account how much they cost in actual stores in Japan and add the fact that everything is imported here.Ive been going to this store since they opened and the man who owns/runs it is the sweetest and hardest working dude. Which translates well to his staff, as theyre also all awesome.For more recent information youre probably here for: yes, they take into account safety and follow regulations and procedures related to COVID-19. It is a very small store, so if you are more wary than I am (and lemme tell you, I am VERY wary), maybe go here during off hours to avoid being close to anyone.Photo shows just some of the things they carry (they rotate a good number of snacks and drinks so sometimes you wont find some things again) and how much I end up buying whenever I go in thinking I just want a couple drinks or a couple snacks.

It’s very quaint and has everything you need! lovely customer service :)

I am half Japanese so I am EXTREMELY thankful for this market! The prices are very reasonable. So many Japanese goods here that I typically only see in Japan. Makes cooking all my Japanese dishes so much easier. The store is very small but has so many options. It’s my little Nippon happiness in DC 😍

Amazing store! has everything you need, if you ever go to dc, make sure to go too hana market!

If u like fresh Japanese bread toast and mini butter rolls, every Thursday afternoon, but not a lot

Nice Small store. I got some cakes for my kids and and some snaks for my wife,,if u like Japanese bread they have some every Thursday afternoon

It does get pretty cramped in here (good luck trying to get something out of the freezer when there’s a line), but the workers are so genuine and nice. Love finding random Japanese hidden gems in the freezer while shopping :) support local!

Hana Market is so nice and helpful! My friend sent me with a list and I didnt know whats what, and they helped me find almost everything. Also.. this karage bento saved my life today

On Fridays they have fresh bread.

I always love Hana. A very sweet little store. Today i got an awesome ginger grater!

I love this place. So glad its here with all my favorite snacks, foods. A weekly grocery spot.

Best Japanese/Asian market in DC. The staff are super helpful and the quality of the products in stock are great!

Excited that they have onigiri on Tuesdays! They also have a great selection of items and reasonable prices. Such a wonderful store.

My go to place forever; at least 20 years! Authentic japanese food and the hospitality reminds me of being back in Japan! The service and the organization is top notch! The lines out front say a lot about this quaint store. You gotta try the rice balls at the checkout counter; man oh man! Id be lost without Hana.

Small selection, and prices are higher than h mart (but not unreasonable, especially for NW Washington DC), but its so convenient to have a place to get some Asian ingredients and foods nearby. Staff is helpful, store is clean. Check it out if youre in the neighborhood!

The women that works there regularly in the morning is extremely rude & at times very disrespectful. Has no sense of customer service Ive walked our several times waiting to be helped with her standing right in front of my face.

Wow what a gem of a place!! Such a great selection and incredible prices. Great place to find your favorites or try lots of new things. Small store so be respectful of others/ those working there and give everyone space!

Hana is right on the corner of my block so for me its more than a speciality shop, its my local convenience store if I need a vegetable, tofu, rice, meat or fish at the last minute for dinner or something to take to a casual dinner with friends (everyone likes Pocky sticks). Really an great selection of high quality Japanese goods including sushi-grade frozen fish and fresh vegetables packed in a tiny space & prices compare with much bigger mega stores in the burbs. Photo is a meal entirely from Hana (except the lemon & red pepper) - my version of beach calamari, post DNC (apologies to RI). Hana is really an asset to the neighborhood.

They always have what I need, their food fresh, they are clean, and they are always courteous.

Always nice and pleasant! I’ve been going here for years

Good matcha, good selection of sauces and sesame oils. I dont know too much about east Asian cuisines myself, so I like to buy something Ive never had before each time I go to Hana Market to try something new! Love this little grocery. Small space but lots of tasty products and staples for cooking.

Love this market! They carry so many great unique things. Very good customer service as well.

Great little grocery store. I love picking up some snacks and then heading to a nice bench to enjoy a beautiful day outside. Great options for actually making dinner too! Lots of products from Japan that you will have a hard time finding in other places.

Fantastic little market! They offer a variety of Japanese snacks and cooking staples, plus super-fresh produce.

The cutest, most awesome little Japanese grocery store that ever was! The style is floor to ceiling, and everything on the shelves is bound to catch your eye. Come for soup ingredients, leave with a variety of exciting sweet and salty snacks, incense, and a few onigiri 🍙💞

Its a lovely place with nice selection of Japanese goods and food.

Great small grocery with everything you could want for japanese and most other asian cooking. Onigiri is a plus when available.

I go here for one thing and find 10 more things I need! Great place for instant noodles, high quality meat you can’t find at a regular grocery store, and all the best snacks.

Best place to shop in the world. You can find almost everything and its worth it.

Cute little store in dc, has all my essentials and their onigiri is amazing!!

This place is dangerous. If you come here, youre going to spend a ton of money just simply because the food is so good and the selection has so many interesting things that you cant help but buy as much as you can. I love it. There are some things here I havent seen outside of Japan and Im very happy they have it.

Gorgeous store ! though its small it has a large selection and pack a lot for the size of the store ! Its mainly a grocery store but does have a variety of other Japanese products.

A very small and intimate market that holds an item for every aspect of life: kitchenware, beauty products, snacks, meats, rice, greens, and coffee.If you dont know the Japanese product you are looking at, there are very few translations. You may have a gamble for the new snack you are trying.The produce is fresh and packaged cleanly for easy selection.The owner(?) is kind and helpful. When I was ignorant of the sushi rice selection, she offered her opinion of her favorite to help me decide.COVID regulations restrict the number of patrons and there is hand sanitizer at the counter.

I just love this little Japanese food market. I stop by often when Im in the area to pick up pickled veggies, mochi, and Japanese sweets for my Mom. They have daily fresh onigiri at the counter every day except Wednesdays. In December they also carry special Japanese New Years foods. The owners are often there and are the sweetest, most genuine people.

Really good stop to get Japanese food and ramen definitely reccomend it

A lot of things I cant find in the U.S. are right here at Hana for very reasonable prices. They are also being very careful with sanitation and crowd control. Wonderful shop

This place is amazing. Having moved away from Tokyo years ago Ive been search for a little bit of Japan and this is it. Staff is amazingly nice and the products are straight from Japan.I bought the onigiri as they came in the door, 12:30 pm, and they were fresh and delicious. Favorite was absolutely the beef that was a bulgogi type of beef. Washed down with the Vitamin B drink, pictured, and I was back to my middle school in Japan. I will absolutely be visiting this place at least once a month to get my Japan fill.

Its really nice is really cute it was my first time. Employees in there were really nice.

The store has really authentic Japanese products and plenty of choices in such a compact store! It has become my number one choice when shopping for Asian grocery.

Great quality and amazing staff!

Lots of japanese groceries and items! Small but packed with tons of products. They also sell bento boxes and onigiri

I only saw it on Facebook.

Small store with a huge collection of Japanese food. Nice selection of noodles, rice, milk bread, drinks, pickled vegetables, seasonings, and sauces. Im a vegetarian so I cant speak to their fish/meat selection. Ive never been disappointed with anything I got here.

My go to spot for Japanese products. If youre jonesing for anything from Japan, this is the place. If they dont have it, its probably sold out.

This STORE IS AMAZING SO MUCH SWEETS I LOVE THIS STORE AND IM NOW GOING TO BE THERE sworn customer. There so nice and it smells amazing here. Im a weeb and i know other weebs will love it. I WOULD GIVE IT 10/5 IF I COULD

Wonderfully helpful and all the necessities youd need to fill up your pantry for Japanese cooking. They even stayed open after a lightning strike cut down a tree and blocked their front entrance, they merely opened up the back and let the customers continue to get what they needed. An amazing place that I am definitely coming back to

I love Hana market. Lots of little food items, fresh and frozen veggies, sauces, noodles, snacks and more. Very small, only two short aisles, packed with stuff. Really only 2-3 people can go in at a time during social distancing.

My sun introduced us to this eat. It is very nice......

Nice small Japanese grocery store. Doesnt have much stuff though. But enough.

Such a variety of good food.

I honestly feel very blessed to have this market in my neighborhood. Anytime I am feeling homesick for Tokyo I stop by and grab my favorite snacks and cooking ingredients. Hana is stocked like an actual small Japanese grocery store. The clerks are also so nice. Please support this excellent local business!!! (PS- sale items are in the back left corner)

Friendly staff, everything you need, perfect location!

Small but has everything

Well stocked and friendly, they have so many options for a small location! Limited number of folks in the store at one time currently but its pretty quick in and out.

Very helpful staff. Lots of Japanese dry goods and snacks

The best of the best!!

Small, but everything I need is there!!

Almost 10 years ago, my husband and I stumbled across this store after leaving Japan. We found amazake, and all the things we needed to cook sushi. When we were about to leave the store, the shop owner said it was too dangerous to walk home so he gave us a lift back to where we were staying. Great store with good quality food, and heart warming service. Arigatogozaimashita.

I love this little gem of an Asian grocery store. I can get all of the essentials, and some less common Asian food items at this store without having to trek all the way to Virginia or Maryland which is really a blessing when youre just missing 1 or 2 things.

Great service - have all the stuff needed to make a Shojin Ryori meal all from a tiny warm place!

Small business owned by very friendly and courteous individuals who are willing to offer advice and insight to making traditional Japanese/Korean cuisine. Wide array of snacks and treats I never thought I would see outside of Japan, as well as ingredients you either get overcharged for in regular stores or cannot find at all. Theyve got spices, produce, meat, and aforementioned snacks. I find excuses to make my way across town during lunch time for the rice balls.They have a credit card minimum of 5 dollars? I usually buy more than that so its no big deal but if you just need one thing I would recommend stopping at an ATM.

Cute little Japanese store. Mostly packaged goods and a few fresh and frozen foods. They have really good frozen ramen kits.

I love Hana! A great Japanese grocery store that has a surprisingly vast selection of food and drink. I always try something new and I usually love it. The employees are very kind and helpful!

This tiny little corner store is easy to miss, but its absolutely worth checking out. While small, Hana is packed with a wide variety of Japanese groceries, snacks, and cooking supplies. Everything is reasonably priced and they have all the essentials for a standard Japanese meal. The owner is one of the sweetest women Ive ever met and shes incredibly knowledgeable and always willing to help. If you plan to cook Japanese food or just really want a good snack, I highly recommend checking Hana out! They also have fantastic onigiri and buns for someone who just needs a quick bite.

This place has the best priced tofu in dc-- none of that $3 organic stuff theyll charge you for anywhere else. its tiny and cute and still packs a lot of punch for its size. they have everything from produce to snacks to fresh bread from a NY japanese bakery on Thursdays!

Im in love with this place. It has the widest variety of Japanese food and merchandise in the tiniest store. Everything weve gotten from there has been a fun New experience. And Ive been able to find old favorites my sister used to bring by. Delicious!

Small store with an endless selection of Japanese food, snacks, etc. Staff is quite helpful too!

Good variety of groceries and friendly cashier good cistomer service

Cute, quaint little store where I can usually find ingredients for pho, stir fries, or simply chinese eggplant!! Wide variety of items, lots of snacks and sweets and theyre always so helpful.... o rice balls (onigiri) on wednesdays

What a gem of a place. Great selection and great prices. In addition to speciality Asian items some of their produce--cilantro, ginger, limes, garlic, cabbage--is much fresher than the big name grocery stores and just as inexpensive, if not cheaper! I love having this place in my neighborhood.

Great little Japanese grocery shop in the heart of DC. All you need for cooking authentic Japanese food is available here and a great selection of Japanese snacks! Friendly staff. Recommended.

Small place, interesting assortment of items. Pretty busy and seems as if its been there a bit. There was a line and it went quickly. Over all a solidly good place.

Great place for my Japanese cooking needs and have very reasonable prices. The staff are friendly and helpful. Its my go to Asian market! Please dont ever close!

Small, well-stocked Japanese market near the Adams Morgan section of Washington DC. This place is essential if youre cooking Japanese cuisine in DC! The staff will assist you in finding what you need. Just be aware that the aisles are small, and it sometimes gets crowded, especially during cherry blossom season when DC has many visitors from Asia.

Its a small Japanese market. A lot of stuff with reasonable price. Very friendly. Lots of goodies snacks, but its a bit crowded.

Wish it was a bigger store. But has many authenic japanese food products. Great store.

Excellent local gem. I highly recommend this place for their tea selection, specialty rice and vegetables. They even have some cute dishware. Sometimes they even have onigiri.

This is a cute locally owned small business selling Japanese snacks and cooking ingredients. They have crackers, instant Raman, candies, bottle drinks, mochi, spices and sauces, and some refrigerated items. Its VERY tight in this space and gets crowded quick. Prices are all very reasonable for the items. The inside is relatively clean.

A really wonderful place to find Japanese (and a small number of other Asian) groceries. Theyve got the snack food down as well as a great selection of rice and vegetables that you wont find at other local supermarkets. Know ahead of time that its a small place, so be mindful to not knock stuff down, and allow space for other customers in the aisles.

Love this little Asian market gem in DC. I found Vermont Curry medium hot which I have not been able to find on the east coast for years. They have some vegetables and herbs, tofu, frozen meats and delicacies galore. Worth the trip!

Small and cute. They had a good variety in a small space. I dont know if you could satisfy all your grocery needs or find many rare or hard to get items, but as a neighborhood quick stop it was quite lovely. Easy to park.

Good selection of ingredients and fresh foods. The most beautiful baby bok choys I have ever seen.

The only Japanese store in DC area. They have a huge selection of traditional Japanese foods, drinks, frozen items, and snacks. Good prices.

Hana Market has a great amount of various Japanese snacks and food but its rather tightly spaced. Its a nice shop to get a lot of Japanese goods. I traveled from PG county, MD near D.C. to Hana Market and it was awesome to see really Japanese snacks and goods.

1 block from my house. Nice neighborhood Japanese food store. Small but fully packed. you can get frozen and fresh foods (including inari) as well as a ton of packaged foods and some dishware.

Can’t live without this place!

Nice Asian grocery store in downtown, selections are not wide due to limited space but effective for needs.

Friendly employees, amazing selection

Very tiny market, but manages to stock most essential Japanese foodstuffs. Very reasonable prices. Absolutely would return.

Great selection packed into a little space 🤩

We discovered this place looking for Japanese Candy items. This tiny corner store has everything you can possible want. Everything you need for your Japanese cooking needs, even frozen items and misc. kitchen gadgets. Of course all the cool candy and snacks the kids love and I usually had to special order. My son always grabs a few of the sodas and juices they have available.

Great little Japanese grocery store. Mostly packaged goods but some frozen meat and fish and some fresh veggies. I dont know much about Japanese cooking but they appear to have a wide selection of Japanese packaged foods. I often come here when I dont want to walk all the way to a larger grocery store. They have some basic produce and snacks to get you through in a pinch. $5 credit card minimum, in case youre trying to buy one avocado or something (guilty!).

Its a tiny space filled with both fresh and packaged goods that are not available elsewhere in the neighborhood. Produce can be limited in total items, but the quality is really great on what they carry. Prices are really good here, some of the items that are also carried in local supermarkets can be half the price at Hanna. Shop local!

Its the only grocery store of its kind in DC. Theyve got a good selection of Japanese foods but the store is very small and difficult to maneuver. They rotate through a lot of their food so you outside of the staples you might not find the same food twice. The staff are always friendly and they have some goods from local bakeries and onigiri made fresh regularly.
