I love this store, but I cant support the business because they require masks...came here twice before this visit and no mask was required, so they flip flopped. Guess Ill have to shop online for asian goods now or maybe Ill try the Asian store on Deerfield.

I love this market. They have everything you might need for a great Asian meal... They now have some of the best sashimi quality fish I have ever had and for a great price! For the price of one sushi dinner for 2, $60 to $80, you can get 3 or 4 sashimi dinners, just cut and freeze..I was really never a big fan of salmon sashimi but my wife and son love it! After trying the Boca Oriental Makets Salmon sashimi, I now cant get enough of it! The Salmon is buttery with no, 0 Salmon after taste, great finish. I have not even gotten to the Hamachi, just Beautiful!... See my pics! 😍We are are now eating sushi 2 to 3 times a week.. 🥳If you are a sushi fanatic like we are, dont go to any other market, they have everything.* Boca Oriental Maket *

I am making Taiwanese beef noodle soup for the first time. I went to Boca Oriental Market and had a great visit. The woman working there was so kind and helpful. She took the time to answer all my many questions and pointed me in the right direction. She helped me pick out all the ingredients necessary and even gave me some cooking tips. I will definitely be going back for all my other recipes!

Great place if your looking for that odd of hard to find Asian cooking item or food. Small shop but jammed packed with all the oriental goods and food items you crave for. Also have seasonal items such as moon cakes, new year cakes, etc during these Chinese holidays. The owners are friendly and helpful and always good to support your local Mom and PoP shops even it you pay a few cents more for certain items. Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed.

I miss this place, the workers here are so nice and I miss coming out of work before this place closed to buy my favorite ice cream. I wish there was an oriental market here in the small town I moved to.

Good choices of Asian ingredients from Thai, to Vietnam, to Filipino, to Chinese. Limited assortment when it comes to fresh vegetables and meat. Pretty much you can get all the sauces and spices to make an authentic dish.Space shop with narrow walkways so for those that are concerned with the social distance, maybe check for the time with less people. Accepts card for purchase over $10.

Weve been here twice so far. Its hard to take everything in because its so jam packed with products. However, after asking for assistance, we found everything we were looking for. The man working there was helpful, though he didnt speak much English. I wish the isles were bigger and it would be great if they stayed open after 5pm so I could stop by on my way home from work instead of having to make special trips.

Absolutely wonderful store! The prices are amazing and the food is fresh. I havent had any issues with the groceries I have bought here. The only slight downside is the aisles are super narrow, making it difficult to navigate the store in a wheelchair. Other than that, perfect. I have tried so many things and have come away with new favorite snacks and dinners. Awesome!

You WILL find it here. I promise - whatever it is, even if the amazing owner has to guide you there. Dried Jujube fruit - yep. Have never come home empty handed regardless of how hard to find the ingredients may be.

Review №33

Prices are on the higher side and they fluctuate according to owners... The selection is decent although not always consistent but the location is convenient. They have dry goods, plenty of sauces and spices, a decent selection of snacks and candies, a fresh produce cooler and some frozen items. Although this store is Chinese owned, they have most all the main asian cuisines represented. Korean, Japanese, Thai typical ingredients are available. There arent many options in this area to buy asian ingredients in Boca, so unless youre willing to drive to Plantation where the bigger Asian supermarkets are, this is a decent local option.

Great little hidden gem. Reminds me of Oriental markets in the East Bay like in Oakland or Berkeley. Found a bunch of great items here to cook with and the produce is fresh. Wish there was a bit more to the produce but it always works out. Really nice people. Just dont ask to use the bathroom as to get to it you have to squeeze through a six inch gap between several towers of boxes.

My father was stationed in South Korea and I was raised on the cuisine and have always loved the culture. The staff is incredibly sweet and welcoming. The carry about everything you would need from, seasonings, sauces, produce, noodles, snacks, drinks, instant food, Korean candy, sweets, and even a few nice imports like skincare as well as other good finds. Please support this business it’s my favorite grocery for when I want to cook home food!

Review №42

This is a small market and what they do not have in size they make up for with lots of choices. They do try to be everything Asian with something from the major countries and cultures. The prices can be on the high side but finding it somewhere else is a whole lot less likely. They have selections from frozen to dry goods, canned to refrigerated. The service is friendly. They get four stars as they tried to push high profit saki more than once and car salesmen piss me off. Honestly it wasn’t that bad but a five is perfect and this they are not. Likely you will find they are excellent.

Review №46

Aisles are small and it is difficult to get by people--1/3 of the store (which is small) is junk food and when I went to check out she told me I didnt meet the debit card minimum which is $10 so either I had to buy things I didnt need or forfeit my order so I left I wont be back and I shopped here often enough before this happened -- it just happens all the other times my orders were significantly more $$

Review №47

A small Oriental market packed with delicious treats, spices, food, drinks and so much more. If you are not with the regular fare, then come to this great little market to find delicious foods. But be forewarned, you cant go inside and walk out with just one snack... My last attempt to pick up a few snacks turned into two full grocery bags! Mmmmmm.

This is a small, truly authentic Asian grocery & general store. Theyre well stocked, but the organization is somewhat mystifying. Limited English is spoken here, so be patient. Speaking in a loud voice doesnt make you any more understandable.

If you are looking for anything to do with Asian cooking, serving or eating, this is the place to go in the Boca Raton area. This is not a large store but it contains an amazing number of products including fresh produce and frozen products. If you cant find what you need, ask the helpful staff. My quest today was for hot bean sauce and the attendant pointed me towards two and subsequently found me in the store and brought one more product for my consideration. The merchandise tends to be pricey, but if you need it you can get it here.

Cute kittle Asian store and an even kinder lady at the front! Dont remember her name hut but shes from Hong Kong and was super friendly and helpful! We got some sweets, some seasonings and most importantly to my chunky heart: boba pearls! I love making these at home and didnt want to drive down to Food Town and this is actually pretty close by! Will be bavk again soon!

Perfectly perfect! Reminds me of Asian/Korean market I went to every week in New York! Didn’t see cucumber (pickle) kimchee, 😰, but I make my own from their stuff, sooo, I’m still tickled pink! They have a ton of dishes, pots ‘n pans and grills, all straight from the warehouses of Seoul...top quality and plentiful...superior to other local Asian markets, so far as I’ve seen locally!

Review №95

Love this place! When youre cooking Asian dishes at home, you know none of the megamarts will have the specialty ingredients you need. For example, I needed fish sauce for one recipe, and Publix had none. Boca Oriental Market has about 20 different varieties of fish sauce alone! The owner is lovely and helpful as well.

Not as much variety as other oriental markets but what they do have is much higher quality, which is a tradeoff I can respect. All-in-all good place

I went there today to pick up some tapioca pearls to make some boba at home, I had a hard time finding it and like several people came to my aid. They were so nice at pointing out where everything was and took me exactly to the product. They had a huge selection of things, despite the small space and they had so many candies!
