🥰Love this store but parking is kind of tight… I had a strong feeling my small parking was going to be bad, the person who was on the other side decided not to be courteous and hit my side door. Don’t assume people will get in carefully and backup to let the other passenger in, we witnessed this from afar after the inside attendant placed us in the tight space. Sucks but there are wider spaces, wait for those instead. We love this store so much we’d give it another go. Lots of goodies here and great sushi, snacks, coffee, desserts, and many other things. Took the store survey from the QR code at the registers and learned they are certified vendors for Japanese Wagyu. Will consider that a curious option on the next visit. Overall it’s a nice place and worth the visit, note to those going in the parking structure, it’s tight and the entrance may not accommodate a truck or large vehicle. It’s canned sardine parking down there, be sure to fold your mirrors in at least and brace yourself for dings and scratches from cars besides yours. 😫👎🏻

Lots to do here. In essence, it's a little Asian grocery store. But it offers so much more. In addition to shopping for authentic Asian food like real mochi and kim-chi, you can come here and eat lunch, whether it be sushi or ramen. There is also a little bakery that has all of the good stuff for those with a sweet tooth. The place is clean, safe, and the parking is fairly easy. This is my go-to place when I need to shop for Asian food.

Cute market with LOTS of variety and items packed in. If you're in no rush and like to explore new things from other cultures, this is a great place to take your time sifting through all of the stuff. The food and items here seem to be of good/high quality, and I haven't seen any produce that isn't fresh so that's good. Staff is friendly, and will help you if you have any questions. Good competitive pricing compared to similar store in the area, also has more specialty items, and harder to find merchandise. Parking is in Weller Court; 1 hour validation if you spend $25+.

Clean market Gets pretty busy during peak times with tourists visiting little Tokyo and regular shoppers LOVE their selection of prepared bentos, lunches, onigiri, and plates! They’re all pretty yummy and you can buy an assortment and share. Parking Validated for 1hr for purchases $25+ in the lot attached The spaces are quite tricky and it’s a confusing lot

Chock full of all sorts of Japanese grocery items, lots of variety and everything I've tried has been really tasty. The fish and produce are all reasonably priced, and the ready-made food is convenient and delicious. They occasionally rotate their stock for certain items (like canned and bottled drinks), so make sure to grab anything that catches your eye the first time you see it.
