Must go to fill up your trip, or while staying / living in Irvine, CA. Slightly better than another one (in Irvine) just a couple miles away, this store was located in a shopping mall packed with good restaurants in the city. And the market also provided many delicious choices, from bakery to lunch options. Pretty much one stop for anyone loves or likes to try Chinese food.

Bought fresh egg noodles today, and it was moldy.. very disappointed. Wish there were expiration dates on the packaging as the mold was inside and not able to be seen through the packaging.

Good place for shopping Chinese groceries

Disappointed with the produce. Even though I dont shop here I stopped in quickly on my way home from work to get a few produce items for dinner. I guess I was expecting better

It always smells like fish 🐟, its okay though the food is great

Is one of my favorite places to shop for groceries! There are lots of great restaurants nearby including this brand new one Shangxi or Tang Du restaurant that is so new it isnt on google maps yet! Lots of great Vegan choices are available!

SALE at 99 ranch. hide yo wife, hide yo kids 😂

Great selection, food and prices. Not great customer service

Everything Asian. from Hong Kong Taiwan Chjna Malaysian Thai …. etc. Always find something to I cook what I need.

Over price local supermarket, not very courteous staff. Their fresh prepped food is very fresh.Wish their salad bar would come back after Covid is over.Sushi is OK.

Average price is higher than other asian grocery stores. The cart is not so clean. The bright side is you can find everything you want to satisfy your asian stomach.

You can find some good treats here.

They have lots of specialty Asian foods and products here! Love those salted brainless shrimp heads!

Still need try harder to clean the whole market. And try to have more discount.

Need Asian food?! Go here,& reasonable prices

I was just writing about this store in my review of our vet, who is a minute walk away. If you love Asian food like I do, stop in if you are nearby. Fresh meat, great sauces, lots of noodle choices and they have my favorite sushi rice. I love the mushroom and fungus aisle.Be adventurous, go and try something new! Dont forget the oyster sauce. 😄

Usually go to 99 market on culver. Surprised that it has some different products from other store. Has much better parking lot. Worth a visit.

Great place for fresh fish

Great place in Irvine for Asian food. Its fairly clean compared with other Asian markets.

Fresh seafood an amazing assortment of Asian Foods its a wonderful place at reasonable prices!

I bough an instant rice noodle, which was deteriorated when I open on second day. When I tried to return it, the CS insisted asking a receipt for refund. Under the Consumer Rights Act, people can return an item within 30 days of purchase without a receipt and still have the right to a full refund. But they refused to refund for a faulty good. The CS and store managers behavior is illegal.

Large supermarket with lots of stuff. I was surprised to see fresh durian. There were also lots of huge jackfruit. The staff is friendly, and there is plenty of parking in a shared parking lot.

Their bakery has buy one get one free after 6 pm.

Good place to prepare Asian meals

Great selection of food and groceries!! Love this place

1st product: Durian Mooncakes. 3 stars2nd product: Taiwan Beer Mango flavored. 4 starsBoth products on sale? 5 STARS!!!Really cannot live too far 99 Ranch for the rest of my life, too many Asian groceries and Asian snacks I cannot go without.And the service of the workers here are on par or even better than your larger local grocers.

The go to supermarket for Chinese groceries. Beats going to the one on Culver simply for proximity and convenience sake. Prices are slightly expensive but cant beat the quality and selection.

Great variety, albeit primarily taiwanese and chinese! Lots of parking space and easy access. Found some great goodies in thw frozen treats, snacks, fresh produce section. Also adjacent to lots of food places so you can stop for a bite afterwards.

Great essentials for asian food and soups

They are great after remodeling. Everything looks so clean and fresh. Thanks for wearing masks everywhere.

I love going to your shop to drink wine! The choices are unbelievable and the owners are awesome. Your staff was also very responsive every time I asked questions. I love this place so much! They carry every bottle you could want, and the staves are so nice. I totally recommend this spot for wine purchases!

This is the place to get any asian ingredient + fresh fish. Vegetables and fruits are a little bit expensier than others stores but they have a good selection, l got a fresh catfish for $3.99 a pound

Its a so-so place. Its the only one of the two markets in the neighborhood thats dedicated to authentic Chinese products. If the produce can be more competitive to the others in regards of freshness and price. It would definitely be higher in star ratings

.. nice, neat, organize Asian market in Irvine.. stocks with Asian foods, produces, FRUITss n others stuffs.. *(But kinda PRICY on Most items the entire store..)**overall customer services is average.. not friendly enough..

This is one of my favorite places to shop for Asian groceries. They have a vastly wonderful selection. To make this an honest review I do have to say that their cashiers are always in a bad mood when I go here. In that sense, there can be an improvement to customer service. I understand that theyre really busy and want to make the line move faster, but theres another way to be efficient. Happy employees tend to be more productive. Customer service always makes a lasting impression even if everything else is perfect. Other than that, the groceries are sooo fresh. Fresher than any Asian market Ive been to in fact. They really put in effort to give you the best shopping experience inventory wise. I always find stuff that I want from here.

Found everything that my family needed here and then some, and we found them at fair prices to boot. Even though its been some time since I last visited this location, I was still surprised at the amount of produce and ingredients that I could both find and buy here.Examples include, packaged soy beans, fresh vegetables,mushroom types, herbs and fruits that I cant really find at other stores. Spices,sauces, and things like Curd Skins that I could eventually use for cuisines and dishes that Id like to experiment with in the near future.Would recommend this place for simple groceries,.exotic ingredients and more. Also along with a good produce selection, spices and things they have great stock in various types of meat and seafood as well as dried goods and rice

You can get hot pot ingredients!

This was my first time in a 99 ranch and it was extremely fun and easy to find everything

Not many options for asian groceries but this place covers all the basics. Parking can be difficult because of all the nearby shops. Customer service is non-existent.

One of my favorites and shop all the time

After scanning my groceries, I asked the cashier if she can tell me how much one of the items was because there was no pricing on the shelf. She said she doesnt know either, I have to go to the shelf to find out myself. I said there wasnt any. I didnt want to hold up the line so I didnt ask her to look at the cash register screen. This place is so crowded and no one was keeping distances at all.

I found the specialty items I sought at decent prices. Th checkout line was not overly long for New Years Eve. Clean and well stocked. Wipes and gel outside for disinfection.The cashier greeted me in Chinese,Ni hao ma?And I repliedWa hang ha.I thanked herHsieh Hsieh.And she saidBu ca zhi.Tsai jian.Maybe she had seen me there before.

Edit: This 99 is entirely average as far as Asian supermarkets go. They stock the right goods, produce, and meats and your experience can be fine if you know what you want and from which aisle to get it. But if you need any type of assistance, the service is neither friendly nor rude---just transactional.For instance, the bakery section has the typical tray, paper liner, and tongs set up for customers to pick their baked goods. What is different here is that the baked goods are individually wrapped---no big deal. It is typical to then take the tray of selected baked goods to the bakerys register and pay. Instead, the register staff will---as a matter of factly---tell you to take the baked goods to the main register for check-out. There is no clear signage to indicate this different process.Furthermore, the reason to checkout at the bakery is to get a separate bag or box for the baked goods to avoid crushing them with other groceries. When I asked for a box---visibly stacked behind the counter---the staff says they dont provide bags or boxes for the baked goods. And then dumps my 6 baked items from the tray to my basket with my other groceries. Again, this is not typical.My suggestion is if you would like a better experience when interacting with staff, go to the other 99 or go to Zion market.

Its so empty and not fully stocked with options like it was before covid

This Ranch 99 absolutely stunk throughout the store from the fish department.Carts were not sanitized and was left to the customer to wipe down and sanitize.Very disappointed in this location.

I like 99 ranch for carrying many of the same supplies youll find at A Dong like fresh noodles, fish, clams, and vegetables- as well as Asian cooking ingredients and treats, but personally for me 99 ranch saves me a trip out to A Dong in Westminster, so thank you 99 ranch for the gas discount!

Nice to have an Asian market in irvine

My go to spot for fresh fish and asian ingredients...the parking lot is horrible and produce prices are a bit higher. For produce I prefer Zion Market

Has lots of asian snacks and produce

Love coming to the market they have so many varieties of noddles and snacks. Also beer and soju 💜👍

The package radish cake is already rancid when i open it at home. It looked n smell ok but after I cook it, it tasted so bad. Luckily no one got sick

Not as big as some of the other 99 Ranch Markets but still has a great selection of imported groceries.

Great location just off the freeway. Its a decent size and (relatively) neat compared to other stores. Theres a lot of variety for takeaway food but I wasnt impressed with the amount of sale offerings at this location.

Thought that there would be b more a selection of merchandise...

Good selection of food, but cashier service need to be improved. I paid $125 for my shop and they are not even helping me load my stuff at the counter i need to do it my self, and other customers must to wait for that .

I like to buy seafood products from here.

Best place to shop for some common Chinese herbs, and living lobsters

Good place to pick up Chinese cooking wine and spices!

Limited selections everything is priced higher than other grocery stores

It is very convenient for those of us who live in Irvine, that there is another 99 ranch market here. Although it is smaller, but there are also items that are not in the other place, we can buy it here.

Decent selection. Reasonable pricing. Fresh vegetable. Quick check out time if I go there b4 5pm

Store forbid bringing own grocery bags. Ok, no problem. However, instead of giving plastic bags for free, they were charging. Told me if I didnt want to buy then I can put my purchases in their uncleaned cart. I used a basket when shopping since I NEVER see anyone cleaning their carts. She uses her used gloved hands to pull a cart towards me. They are not taking proper precautions for COVID and are taking advantage by charging for bags!

An amazing market for anyone looking for the authentic Asian snacks and foods!

Smallish compared to the other location in Irvine, but still has all the essentials

Asain style grocery store with many imported items. Fresh fish, chicken, meat, and produce items in stock. Many hard to find items from Asia. Good selection of frozen products to choose from. Usually very busy market with tight parking shared with other stores in center.

Sell many fresh food

Favorite place to buy fresh seafood

Decent prices.

Somewhat disappointed: could not find chamomile tea nor did anyone know what i was talking about!

One of the few Chinese market in Irvine. Price is higher than the counter part in Westminster area but the place and the groceries were more clean. Weekly sales item had a competitive price.

It serves its purpose. It no longer is the only Asian market in town, so competition should lower prices. Not the case at 99 Ranch. I find better produce and specials at H Mart or Zion.

Ok but fruit goes bad really quickly

Good be cleaner and friendlier.

When I was there the shopping carts were so old the homeless wouldnt even want them. It was extremely cold inside. Im just glad I can get my Samyang 2X spicy noodles at the 99¢ store now.

Cleaner than the other 99 ranch stores ive been to

Very rude employees when answering phone calls

Convenience for asia people.

It is similar to a chinese market. They have a lot of asians snacks, buscuits I used to have during my childhood. They have a meat section and a fish section, gives the shoppers quite a lot of option to pick.

As a Caucasian, I wish they had information about the exotic fruits and vegetables. Do you cook them, or eat raw? How long to cook? Etc...

So much verity of things 👏🏻👍🏻

Came in lookin for white rice, went to the deli and bakery and politely asked for rice. Was told that they didnt have white rice but the sushi department was creating fresh sushi with white rice. When I asked the sushi department if I could have white rice I was told that it was only for the sushi.Cant sell white rice? How hard is that? Perhaps Im not Asian, lady was rude too.

Chain oriental food market. Good vegetable and fish selection. Decent cooked food sufficient for a quick bite or take out

New store at Irvine, nice location.

The old employee at the seafood section was pretty rude and seemed to hate his job. Then I started to look elsewhere and found Zion market which is cheaper with more fresh items... so won’t come back here for Asian stuffs anymore.

Compared to other Ranch 99, this one appeared old, small, and filthy. Shopping carts were old and barely useable and could use a good steam cleaning. Parking lot was crammed with cars so parking is difficult. At least checkout was reasonably fast.

Over priced fruits and vegetables. Service is lacking and whats the deal with still having customers pay for reusable bags? Its not like we have a choice of using our own bags.

Hit or miss good on freshness. Bought 3 precooked lobsters in the afternoon, and they were not edible. Must have been days old. Gross. Buy fresh there.

Is ok. I dont buy a lot. I dont want to touch the shopping cart. Kind of old and dirty. I just hold with my hands

Super expensive compared to other grocery stores around the great LA area. I suspect it is targeting the Chinese community who dont speak (understand) English. Will add photos later if time allows.

There are some good prices on fruit, veggies, and mushrooms - usually pretty fresh, and you dont need to pick thru to ensure quality. Fish tanks ensure fresher fish. Fairly clean. Has recycling center in back, and gives you coupon to use inside on anything.

I eat the duck bowl and I got sickI will never shoop there again

All things Asian! Great selection, including live seafood. Would give 5 ⭐ except its not the cleanest.

I went to Ranch 99 today they did clean the cart, they wont let me bring my bags in and they wont give me enough bags for my groceries. The cashier didnt say a word to me. Very bad service

Please be sure not to go to this Chinese supermarket anymore. I bought two boxes of beef here and they are all corrupt. The clerk put the good side on it and the back was stinking. Please do not go shopping at this supermarket！！！

Pretty good selection and Im seeing many more organic products now. But Ive got to tell you the melon ice cream bars are par exsalonce. Havent seen these anywhere else but 99 Ranch

Great Asian grocery store for hard to find items !

This 99 ranch market is amazing compared to others Ive been to. They have all varieties of foods and an amazing sushi section. The prices are cheaper too! Great place!

Great place for Asian Produce Market items!

This location seems smaller than other stores. Still, its remarkably clean. Its also located in a plaza with a lot of really good restaurants.

Great location. It is very convenient location for residents around the great park area. It sells varieties of asian food that you cannot find in places like Albertson, Ralphs, or Costco. They sell Dim Sum in morning too.
