We came here to get a few BBQ items. Grabbed some fresh oysters, meat, vegetables and a melon. We grilled the oysters, and they were all fresh, Huge, and delicious. All of the oysters were viable and alive, and my 7 year old chomped them down. We grilled the gigantic scallions, which were sweet and delicious. The melon was cruchy, yet sweet and juicy. Its nice having a small but nice market nearby.

Very bad experience shopping at this Chinese market. Bought a Durian cost $80 as non refrigerated fresh fruit. This Durian is not close to ready to eat after open. I called and ask to talk to owner and said owner not here. The store associate is very rude and sounds like is my fault not putting the Durian on the side for period time wait till ripe. I ask for refund and denied my request. Over all experience there price are slightly higher compare to most Asian market and which is fine if you get customer service. Be aware and will not ship here from now on.

Everyone in there was so nice, the young lady cashier even went to look to see if they had the item I was looking for while the other nice lady rang me up. Ive been looking for a really good preserved plum, and oh man these are so good, and decently priced. I will be back👏🏼😍

They have a lot of good Chinese goods. The prices are comparable to Marina and other bigger Chinese markets. I just wish they had a better way to collect the used plastic gloves. The gloves were flying around the outside, littering everywhere.

Store is small and parking is difficult despite it offers a wide variety of groceries. After a couple of visits, I feel like it doesnt worth all the effort of trying to get here.

Wonderful clean place for daily grocery needs. Have been coming since store opening. Has live fish. Fruits, vegetables, seafood readily available and at fair price. Note that fresh chickens are delivered by 10 am. Fresh fish on Tuesday morning. Can ask to join WeChat social media for updates and get prompt replies. You will like it. Parking is on street, readily available in mid mornings.

Nice Asian grocery store in Castro Valley. Carries most of the needed products, meats, and vegetables, needed to produce good Asian meals. Nice seafood selection. Prices are reasonable. Service was good from the staff.

Love this place! Everything is super organized. I especially like their mini shopping cart. That reminds of the grocery store experience in Asia. You only buy what you need each time and come back frequently. Think of this place as an extension of your kitchen.BTW, The store sign is hidden behind a tree, so it’s easy to drive past it.

I love that we have an Asian grocery store right in town. Dont come during the weekend because it is crowded, the aisles are very narrow (Im surprised its even to code) and its impossible to maintain social distance.

For a small Chinese grocery store, theyve got almost everything that I would normally buy at R99. Now I dont have to hunt down (white) baby bok choy (Safeway only carries Shanghai bok choy) and gai-lon (Chinese broccoli). They are super conveniently down the street for me!! They even carry everything that I would need for hotpot and/or kbbq!!!! And make sure you check out their snack sections...THEY HAVE WASABI 🦐 CHIPS!!

They had just opened up recently, I went in with my mom to get some groceries. We had assumed we will no longer need to travel far for groceries since it is so close to where we live. But we were wrong because later that day, when we decide to cook the groceries we got for dinner, they were all either rotten or it has gone too old. We had to throw away all of it.I hope they change their products and not waste their customers money and time on food that can not be edible at the end. Really disappointed.

I recently discovered this place when I need to Re- up my Asian food supplies...previously I would shop in Oaklands China town but since COVID I needed some place closer to home...the had a great variety of noodles, the one to make pad thai, Vietnamese bun noodles, the thicker noodles in Japanese soup and EVERY sauce you could possibly want for cooking. I am a big fan of oyster and black bean sauce stir Frys. A little sesame oil is a must and for THAI and some VIETNAMESE inspired dishes you have to have fish sauce. I was pleasantly surprised in addition to meat and poultry they have LIVE seafood!!!. You can get wrappers to make your own delicious steamed buns or wrappers to .make Vietnamese spring rolls. Enjoy shopping!

I bought a chicken and asked to cut it into small pieces for frying. When I got home, I found that the staff had cut the chicken into eight big pieces. The cooked meat was very poor and ruined the whole pot of food. The pork portion of the fish is also the king, and the chicken pieces are cut evenly and in the same size.
