Reminds me of the Viet stores I grew up going to with my mom in Orlando. Ive been developing an allergy to fish sauce and theyre the only Asian store in the area that actually stocks vegetarian fish sauce!!!!! Thank you πŸ™πŸ½

I shop here once to twice a month for fruit & vegetables and Oyster mushrooms. The prices are good. The store is very clean and cashiers are very helpful. The price for a case of coconut water is lower here than most places.

Your everything Vietnamese grocery store. Can find most Asian sauces and a nice selection of Durian fruits. The place is a bit beat up but the selection of veggies & meats is good. Plenty of live fish to choose from as well.

Not a bad place if your looking for any asian related recipies. I feel like Im in a traveling show across the world when Im in there since there are a lot of unusual products in different languages. Parking is horrible here so youre better off parking somewhere down the street.

Its not the prettiest grocery store, but its got the best produce for the best prices in the area.Garlic and green onions are like half the price compared to American grocery stores, and most veggies have much better portion sizes for the price.

Store is great but parking can be a nightmare even though there is parking. Maybe expanding parking in the future?

A crowded busy Vietnamese market. Everything from fresh vegetables to fresh fish. Rows of everything Vietnamese from condiments, spices to boxed goods. Busy parking lot. Vietnamese restaurants in same parking lot.

I shop here occasionally. There are only two ways to shop here if you are non-Asian, like me. #1: youre looking for a specific item and you know what it is. Or #2: youre happy wander aimlessly and discover interesting food items to add to your pantry. The place is poorly/haphazardly organized. I never find favorite items in the same place. Basically, shopping here is an adventure if you are a patient foodie like me.

Review β„–11

Don’t buy anything from this supermarket. They scam you!!!!! I purchased this pork slices and plan to cook it for dinner. I cooked it on the same day, put the first two layers of pork slices in and all the bottom layers are dark and spoiled . They use fresh meat to cover up, repackaged it, and sell it to customers. What a disappointment and dishonest business practice. Spend your money somewhere else.

One of my favorite Asian grocery stores. It has great products at cheap prices - which is the most important thing about a grocery store! I always get fruits and vegetables at cheaper prices here than at typical grocery stores (Giant, Fresh Grocer, Acme, etc.). Parking is tricky (but Ive never had a problem), so come during off-peak hours to avoid the hassle!

Review β„–15

Really great produce. Inexpensive shrimp and tons of other fish. Their meat is fresh but not great. Finding someone who speaks English can be difficult so getting a cut of meat that they dont usually have in their case isnt always in the cards.Plenty of hard to find Asian ingredients, Chinese teas, and Asian candies.Worth a visit.

If youre into international foods, fresh fruits and veggies, this is your place! They even have a home shopping section along with a killer food court! Ive been shopping here for years. The fruits and veggies come in at a lower cost than your average market.

The supermarket is by far the best of the bunch from the surrounding area. My wife makes it a point to remind me that were going to this specific market. Fish produce is great, and its always busy which speaks volumes for the quality of produce you are getting.

Good place for shopping food, fresh, good prices and a lot of choices! But there is something that I can not understand. Today I carry my own shopping bag with me because I not want to used plastic bags . I the guy who sit at the door to enter market stop me and ask me have to leave me empty shopping bag at his table if I wanna shopping inside?! Check in my empty without any number or something for later I check out my bag ?! I saw a lot of people that carry they back bag handbags... and I can carry empty one ?! Do they think I come here to steal a lemon or a chilly pepper? Or those people if they bad they can’t steal something and put it in their bags? Or because they races me? Don’t take me wrong, I like to shopping here a lot but I hope that whoever in charge see this review and make thing better for everyone every shopper feel comfortable to shopping here!

My mom and dad went to this grocery store each week to buy food item ingredients to cook. The place is decent, price is OK although it seems to be going up each year.

Review β„–22

I pop in here occasionally for dumpling wrappers, which tend to be difficult to find at the grocery stores that are closer to me. Its a 15-minute walk each way so I just get what I cant find elsewhere so I dont have to lug a lot home, and so I havent spent too much time in the rest of the store. Its a little more crowded than I like and thats the only reason I took off a star. They do tend to have someone out front on the weekends to count the number of folks in the building and limit it when it gets too high, but the aisles are narrow and theres always a bit of a bottleneck around the produce and wrapper/noodle/tofu sections regardless. Today I went in the morning (Sunday) and it was less crowded so thats probably what Ill try to do in the future. Overall, seems like a good spot for whatever you might need!

It is an Asian characteristic supermarket with a lot of Asian vegetables, herb and snack. If you try something special and not so American style, you can find it here. There is a Chinese BBQ kiosk on the right side. You can buy roast duck, roast pork and BBQ meat there. For the roast pork, it is certainly not to buy a whole pig (very expensive) but to buy one pound (about $18) or two pound (about $36) chopped roast pork to taste. It is amazing when you taste the crunchy pork skin with the sweet meat beneath it. The mouth watering level is 5 of 5. Try it and you will not be disappointed. If you need to drive over one hour to return home, please dont cover the container lid. Otherwise the pork skin will not be crunchy. Please open the container lid and put the container in a stable and upright place. Have fun!

I was surprised today, around 4pm on a Tuesday. It was the LEAST crowded Ive ever seen it. Also, the parking lot of doom was only at 65% capacity...Along with everything else I picked up there, I was looking for Kewpie mayonnaise. It eluded me and two stockers couldnt help me. Otherwise, great produce! Good selection of fresh meat and seafood.

Great selection of produce at reasonable prices. Lots of items you cant find at a more traditional grocery stores. Best place.to buy Asian specialties and staples. Some dry items can be a little past their prime. Horrible parking situation and usually quite packed.

Its a great market, I just wish the parking there was better and not so cramped. It also doesnt help that the neighboring restaurant wont allow anyone to park there, even though all the shops share that one parking lot...

Review β„–44

Hard to find parking in the middle of the day, but its reflective of how busy and popular this supermarket is. Its very big has a huge selection of Asian groceries. You should be able to find anything you need there if youre looking to cook Asian cuisine. Pricing is decent. However, like I said, parking isnt the best in the middle of the day -- You may even find yourself driving in circles around the lot until someone leaves. But if youre okay with that, everything else about the supermarket is good.

As you walk into the store you are greeted by a foul smell similar to rotting produce. They have a large selection of Asian food and are pretty clean other than the smell. But its quite annoying being hounded by Security Guards in the parking lot who come and yell at you for stopping to pick someone up or drop someone off. The Security Guards at this location do not create a Welcoming environment and are quite frankly the main reason why Id never shop here again.

Review β„–55

A large grocery store where you can find all the necessary Asian products you want. Large verity of fresh fruits and vegetables, Noodles, sauces and oils, seafoods and other kitchen items, nicely arranged, with a reasonable price. I find this grocery store always busy with lots of people buying things. It’s quite far from my place, so I don’t go here often, whenever I go, I will buy everything I want and some extra items to stock for couple of months.* It is hard to navigate through the isles with shopping cart because they are narrow.*As I said, narrow isles and busy store makes it harder for you not to bump into each other. So, WEAR A MASK😷.*This place smells horrible. Even the mask couldn’t help πŸ˜–. Maybe because of the seafoods and meat products.*They do have a parking lot, but, since the grocery store is popular, busy and in the middle of the city, it is hard to get parking, sometimes, you might be circling around the parking lot until someone leaves.

Review β„–63

I rate 5⭐ for their fresh produce. I am delighted to find fruits not commonly found in the standard American grocery stores: jackfruit, rambutan, Korean melon, pitaya, you name it! However, I give it only 3⭐ due to the lack of diversity in the sources of their packaged products. They are skewed toward Vietnam and China. I wish to see more Japanese, more Korean, more Malaysian, and more Indonesian products. But I suppose you can only fit so much/little in one store. This lack of diversity is evident in the spice aisle. Hung Vuong Supermarket, if you are reading this - please get more selections of curry.

The inside was frozen me to death!!! The aisles are so narrow, you could hardly turn around without bumping into someone else, which was horrible especially during Covid-19!! The fruits and vegetables are not fresh and the staff there is super unfriendly and unwilling to help(they dont appreciate you shopping there and they dont treat you like a customer). Ive been to various kinds of grocery stores and supermarkets, I felt happy after shopping at Trader Joes, Fresh Grocer, Shoprite, etc. but I felt so unhappy after shopping at Hung Vuong Supermarket, I will never ever go there again!!!

This place has the best selection of vegan meats Ive found, thus far. I will absolutely be coming back here. They lose a star because some of the produce is past its prime, considering how other Asian markets in the city have a better looking selection. Im probably just being nitpicky but thats my opinion. 😁

Very fast cashiers. Probably the fastest I’ve seen in this pandemic. Organized shopping experience for the circumstances. Be prepared to wait in line because they are limiting the amount of people in the store. Be prepared to wait at the register. Don’t be rude. Bring your patience. They’re doing the best they can.They are very chaste and this can come off as rude. This is common in asian stores, I relate it to the stress the workers are under and don’t take it personally. However, I had to find multiple items and the stockers were ALWAYS around to help me. There’s almost a person in every aisle. I really appreciated this, especially under the crazy conditions they were working in.Decent prices and wide selection. They were sold out of some things but that is to be expected. If you need toilet paper, they have it here. Good luck shopping everyone!

The crispy pork is not good... very dry and bland. Second time this happened where I asked for half lean and half fatty cut and the lady gave me mostly lean cut. Also, the lady was sneaky when cutting up the crispy pork. She took off most of the skin and filled it with some bones instead when I wasnt looking... NEVER go for their hot foods! What a waste of $15...

Great Asian supermarket in which you can get almost anything you want!Great selection of fresh produce. They have special fruits that gets changed around with something different every week .Decent selection of dried and canned goods. The seafood selection has many fresh fish that are still swimming. Talk about fresh!The meat department doesn’t have any cows or pigs running around, but it’s still fresh, and they carry stuff that most other supermarkets don’t, like chicken feet and pork products.They have a nice selection of Asian snacks and candy from Asia and Japan.

There is no customer service or guest respect. Only come here if you want to be treated like garbage and shop at a dirty store. They do have a lot of variety so its okay if you are desperate but dont expect to be treated well.
