Well laid out grocery store with just about anything you need if you know what you are looking for. More times than not Im getting a quick bite to eat from the deli. Never a shortage of food items to grab and go. You might get lucky and find a deal, usually couple bucks off.

My favorite place to shop, I grew up in Hawaii and uwajimaya has all the Staples, the steam table food is excellent and so is the poke, everything I need for my Asian taste buds.

Cash/Card acceptedFamily friendlyFree Public ParkingMilk Tea store insideTake out Restaurant insideEBT Card acceptedA Asia Market place where you can buy your basic neccesitys. Friendly staff and environment. They offer household items and fresh seafood as well. Worth a visit if you require any South East Asian ingredients for Hotpot, ramen, Pho, and much more. Overall another good option for Asian grocery.

Great spot for all the right food. I came for some seafood for a boil. They had everything I needed except crablegs.

Despite our encounter with their Deli Asst. Manager, we will definitely be back. Im not gonna let one BAD APPLE spoil my shopping. Thank you to the manage Alan (I think thats his name) and Apple things were resolved.

The hot lunch combos are fresh and delicious. Friendly and helpful staff.

Easy parking in the lot, clean and organized store. Found my fave buckwheat noodles and other random stuff, which is great. Focus is of course Asian but mainly Japanese so if you are looking for less mainstream items like kansui (lye water) or custard powder youll need to look elsewhere. Good spot, though. Recommended at least to look!

Love this grocery store for some Asian food/fresh and hot Japanese food! Fish market is also fantastic. I also have a guilty habit of slowly browsing their stationery, makeup/skincare and Japanese blind boxes.

Great variety! The sandwiches in the bakery section are a particular favorite, and they often sell out by evening. Flavors at the in-store deli can be a bit underwhelming, but it’s a decent place to grab a bite. Try the buns from the hot counter, too!

Friendly cashier. I have always been able to find what I need and tasty new treats that the kids enjoy trying. I live hours away but usually make sure to stop in here when Im in the area.

Again grocery with most foods Japanese style. Very clean, very nice.

In my opinion Uwajimaya has the best sushi and inari in Seattle! Been a customer since the mid 1970s!

Looking hard to get Japanese or Asian foods/ingredients- this is the spot to do so. I’ve only been to this location and the main store in Seattle. Has all the Japanese items I cook with! Worth the drive.

Great store. Rex Hashimoto is very goodManager. Good sales people. Very goodProduct. Outstanding seafood dept.Lost my cellphone two times bathroom.Returned both times. Very impressiveservice. Dropped a twenty in front of cashier. They returned immediatelyVery impressive. I am the guy thatPicks the trash up from parking lot.Uwajimaya Renton is outstanding store.

Really sad they didnt have any sour balls and I made a special stop coming from Arizona. I still had a good experience and got the other items on my list. I hope on my next trip back they have sour balls.

Best shop of its type in the region. Good deli, though the fried rice needs help

Great selection of sashimi, iced coffee drinks and flavored milks and a TON of stuff I cant read but what more could you want?

Like the store,they have fresh vegetables and is so close from my place, have been there several times,go check it out

One of the best products and my favorite store

I bought a frying pan for 50$ and after I removed the sticker on the bottom of the pan, I noticed that it was rusted (which is extremely unhealthy) I took it back and the manager said she was sorry and couldnt exchange it. After a minute I realized she doesnt actually care, and Im wasting my time, I told her to keep the pan, as its simply trash, and walked out.Glad I knew that cooking on rusty pans is very unhealthy. Or else I would have been paying medical bills on top of losing 50$. DONT NOT BUY THEIR PANS. THEY ARE USED AND THEY RUST.

I love Uwajimaya. This one is smaller than the one in china town/Seattle however it has just about all of the same offerings. They have oasis tea located inside so u can order bubble tea if u want while shopping. They have a small baked goods type area next to the hot deli and produce. On the opposite end there are Korean and Japanese beauty products, housewares and more as well as fresh/live seafood and meat. In the middle you will find frozen foods and things of that nature. My oldest daughter is studying Chinese and is very interested in Chinese, Japanese and Korean culture. I love to bring her random things home to try. The prices are on the high end but this place is a lot of fun and you will find what you need for sure.

Great place to stock up on imports I find essential in my kitchen.

They have most everything you need when preparing an Asian dish! A bit expensive but worth it. Great produce section too.

Loved it got some stuff from Hawaii that cant get anywhere up here in Washington

Asian grocery store is good, not as nice as the remodeled Seattle location also a little bit of a different selection of items I used to get from the Seattle location, but overall not bad. Just missing key items we use to get in Seattle.

They keep it clean, safe, and are all very friendly. The selection of food and curios is also delightful.

Half the size of the mother ship store, but fantastic selections from all departments, but my heart aches for their warm, ready to eat options and combos. Makes my face and tummy smile.

Just decent place. pretty small

The selection is not as varied as other locations but wonderful to have essential staples. You can even get some limited stock of pastries from Fugetsu-do bakery in Little Tokyo, LA.

Excellent selection of Japanese products. Top notch seafood department. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Plenty of parking and easy to find.

Beautiful store that carries lots of packaged foods, prepared foods, fresh produce, and housewares. Stop by if you’re thinking about it!

Best place in Renton for high quality meat and seafood.

When you come to this store after shopping at the location downtown Seattle, its a little underwhelming. Especially the deli section. They have some good grab and go selections, but the hot food choices were pretty limited, basic, and didnt look very appetizing.

Fuels my milky candy addiction, 10/10 would reccomend to other milky addicts

Always been one of my favorite grocery stores. All the foods I grew up on. Bento boxes👍

Service was good. Deli ran out of meat too early

Not too busy for the staff to assist you but busy enough to have a medium line at the deli! We went to secure our holiday roasted duck. When it was my turn the associate took my request and came back five minutes later to tell me that it would be ready in fifteen minutes, would I like to wait? R U kidding me!! Fifteen minutes for a fresh, hot, juicy, out of the oven duck? YES PLEASE!!!I went and got some vegetables and aloe drink and then my duck was ready to go home with me. After all, he is the guest of honor!!They treated me like I was the only person in the store, provided personalized service. This is why I go to this store for my Asian specialties.

The place to go for your groceries when youre cooking Asian food. They also have an area to buy teapots, toiletries, stationary, and ceramic dishes.And they carry my favorite brand of cider! Spire!

Excellent Asian food and alcohol choices. Friendly personnel. Nice fish.

This place is like a little piece of Seattle. It is similar to the Uwajimaya in Seattle but with a more homely feel and less hustle and bustle. There are plenty of places to eat as well as its own Oasis Bubble Tea! It was a good surprise.

Forgot how much I love Uwajimaya. Gift section seems a bit smaller than the downtown location, but no issue to me. Oasis has a little bubble tea stand here too.

Wonderful Japanese grocery store! I found my favorite Roasted Cuttlefish snack!

Great store. Highly recommended

Almost as cool as the Seattle location. Lots of interesting items. Always find something new to try when i visit. Clean. Reasonably priced.

Exceptional selection of specialty Asian foods, especially things I literally cannot find anywhere else.Really good to-go lunches.Very high mask compliance.

Great prices. For the ethnically diverse palate, for a One-America experience to celebrate true multi-cultural richness in your own kitchen. Great staff. Great products. Did I say Great prices? Nothing redundant here. Its a first-time experience no matter how many times youve come here to shop.

Niko niko cal rose! More rice brands than you can shake a stick at.

I really liked the place, cleaner and more options for food I like then the once I normally go to. Stuff was nice and welcoming, I like that they have food court and premade meals :) I am giving it for 4 star because I have gone there only 2 times so I haven’t had a lot of experience with the place. For now I do love it :)

I felt like a kid in a candy store. Lmao.

Good Japanese and other Asian grocery store. Nice variety of fresh vegetables and fish

Why is uwajimaya so expensive compared to other asian grocery stores? 8 dollars for a premade bahn mi sandwich. I could get a fresh one for less!! The deli chicken is tasty and affordable though. Only thing I buy there.

A great selection of incense and they even have some Italian espresso soda!

There is no so many people like in bellevue

I was looking for cotton candy grapes but they didnt have any.

One of my favorite Asian grocery. Got a 1.75 liter Sake for 7.99

I have been going to the Uwajimaya in Seattle since 2015 when I worked at the apartment complex on top of it. I even drove to Seattle during the beginning stages of the Covid 19 outbreak even though I don’t live there anymore to give business to the small restaurants when nobody else did. Today I tried the Uwajimaya in Renton for the first time and was asked to leave because I did not have a face mask. I then pointed out several customers also not wearing a mask and asked why they where not asked to leave. The employee said they where asking everyone who is not wearing a mask to leave. So I said why don’t you ask him to leave as there was a person standing right next to her without a face mask. She said nothing, I left and watched several customers leaving the store with groceries from the parking lot with no mask. None of them where white and that’s the only difference that I could see. Don’t wast your time with this regressive store it does not represent the respect of the Uwajimaya family like there Seattle location continues to do. It’s a disgrace to see that name drug in the dirt by the same mind set of the people that Uwajimaya stood against so long ago. I will not return to this location and am very disappointed to see racist behavior amidst the recent events in this nation from a Uwajimaya employee who should know better.

Good selection of foods, but some expiration dates have been questionable, so I always double check those. I do wish the cashiers were courteous to all customers, not just the ones that speak their language. A simple hello and a smile would make a shopping experience muh more enjoyable for those who may be visiting for the first time or not regulars. I usually dont get a response to my greeting to them, even though they are pleasant and chatty with the regular checking out before me...

Wonderful location for a neighborhood corner market. Great selection of basic items and a good mix of high end brands and the usual staples

Excellent selection of all sorts of Asian foods. Helpful staff. I particularly like the hot food.During Chinese New Year, they have Dragon Dance festivities. Watch their flyer for info.

Tagged along with a friend and ended up buying things I didnt know I needed, like banana makgeolli. Prices were very reasonable too.

I’m only writing this review about the poké bowls in their fish department. I had three places in Seattle that I went to for poké when I lived there. This was my favorite of the three. The spicy tuna poké over rice, with a generous shake of furikake could not be beat! I sure do miss eating there, and I will definitely be there as soon as I get back to Seattle.

Yummy food great customer service.

A wonderful outpost of the downtown Seattle Japanese grocery chain, this Renton location is open, airy, and has a bit of everything. The deli area is the best part, with dozens of freshly made meal and snack options, plus a hot bar.

2nd best only to the downtown location with wonderful service!

Tons of selection and great service

Always stop when in downtown. Love the fun finds and good food here

We love the variety of ingredients available not found in other nearby grocery stores

A clean and nice place for Asian food

Probably the finest Asian market chain in King County. Large selection of quality market goods. Many prepared Asian packaged foods & cafeteria style foods. Very clean well packaged meats. Live seafood in Clearwater aquariums. Lots of Asian pottery and gifts. We highly recommend this place.

We went in for a sushi dinner, but it was late & there was only 1 cucumber roll, a mixed bowl & some pre-made sushi rice left in the whole section. We went over to the meat & seafood department where we found salmon, mackerel, shrimp, albacore, blue fin & yellow fin tuna prepped for sashimi. It wasnt the quick and easy meal we were looking for after a long day of hard work, but it was delicious. Only 4/5 stars cuz they close too early.

Always clean and stocked. Great selection, not as much as the seattle location, but I prefer it because of ease of access and less chaos.

Convenient place to find all my favorite Asian brands and foods. Sashimi blocks are the best Ive ever found anywhere. They have a nice little hot bar. Prices are very reasonable. Its not as big as the one in the International District, but it has everything I need.

Good job. Be free.

I can offer no other words than astoundingly fantastic

First time here. Saw items that Ive not seen in other stores. I love Juanitas but never seen the jalapeño & chili flavors

Great supermarket for foods. Awesome variety. Friendly staff.

Great selection of rice. Excellent produce.

I like this store because they have Japanese products. And I dont know why but Japanese things tend to be of a high quality. They taste good, the function good, theyre clean, theyre cute. If you are out of ideas, come here and shop!

Good food ok prices

Awesome grocery store alot of unique foods and fresh produce

Love to shop here. We buy bonito flakes. We use them for soup and as treats for our pets. If you buy them in the pet stores, they are priced up to 3 times more than here. Also have really good cooked duck. A great deli section with rice, veggies, multiple entrees. Their Seafood and meat department, and vegetable departments are plentiful. It is also very clean.

Great selection of unique Japanese gifts and items

Everything you need if you miss home.My only grumble is, where da poi? Please bring back da poi.

Nice location and alternate location from the International district spot. Great choice of sushi, Asian ingredients, snacks and wares. Usually busy location. Free parking. No validation needed.

Love the hot case selection and the selection at the store

Great parking and deli

They now carry Tres Japanese style sandwiches: egg sandwiches, veggie croquettes, cream and strawberry. What a delight it was to see them there. No need to make the trip to Bellevue. Plus, can now have those sandwiches after 2pm when Tres (the original shop) closes

I love the variety your store offers... The staff are always willing to help look for items,and their involvement in the community is wonderful ...I am looking forward to a upcoming event at your stores location.. the Polynesian Festival .. Management team at the store truly care and it shows... they work just as hard, if not harder than anyone...😀😀

Unexpectedly great selection happen to talk to a friend that goes there went there myself and found out Im a huge fan of rice crackers. And the selection is huge. Honestly if your up for trying new things its worth stopping in. The hot food was kinda bland and the wait was long. But the store itself really great. Highly recommended and thats very hifmgh praise from me.

Wonderful place to shop for groceries and extremely friendly people that work. I love going to this store, they have everything.😉❤

Expensive for the same items you can get at Safeway for cheaper.

I like to eat the same food I grew up with in Hawaii and it is always easy to find the ingredients I need to make those dishes with at this store. On this day, I was making bitter melon stew. The only place I could find the bitter melon was Uwajimaya. Staff here are also friendly and willing to help. Go visit!

A lot of good stuff to try especially ube cookies and cheesecake from hood famous. Taro malasadas are good too.

Nothing better than live seafood.

I love the store I get all my sea food from here a wide variety of seafood and fresh vegetables. They have a food court Ive never tried it.

Great place for fresh seafood. Has hot Chinese food to go. Bbq duck, bbq pork, and roasted pork. Fast, friendly, clean, and organized.

Its so clean and the produce always looks super fresh! Sometimes I resort to other grocery stores like fred meyers and Safeway simply because theyre closer and open longer. But when I can I go to Uwajimaya for my shopping needs, especially when I want to cook Asian foods like teriyaki, stir fry, ramen, etc. Theyve got almost everything youd need. Though since it is a Japanese store, Chinese and Korean ingredients are a smidge harder to find. They have some but not a large variety. If I need more Korean ingredients, Id likely have to go to H mart or some other Asian market, etc.

Missing many key Japanese products. Like convenience store items that are easily available in Japan. Also, I couldnt find Gyoniku (fish sausage) which is located in every Japanese grocery store.

Wish they had a bigger selection of moggu moggu

WOW... This is the place to get LOCAL cravings satisfied ☺️❣️
