Great selection of delicious Japanese grocery products that you wont find in a regular grocery store, so many exotic food products to try, Ive bought for about 200$ and I already regret that I havent picked more since theres no Japanese grocery store in my area. Theres also cooking wares, souvenirs/decoration stuff, hygienic products like shampoos and whatnot, sake, beer, pastries and frozen foods,etc. Its clean inside and the employees are very respectful.

Very friendly employees/owner. You can find calbee, varieties of KitKat, yakult, chopsticks, Japanese beauty products, shampoos and hair color. I found my favorite rice which I was eating in Japan. I heard Japan TV Channel in background for a second I felt like I am in Japan. Overall this place is great if you are asian product fan. Definitely recommend this place and will visit this store again and again.

This is my favorite store, it has a great, unique, and fresh selection with competitive pricing and very friendly staff. I have been coming here for a few years and the quality has always been excellent. I recommend everyone to visit this store because you will definitely find something you like! 👍

Lots of Japanese/Asian food products but primarily Japanese products. Its a small store but clean and organized. They also have fresh fruits and vegetables and alcohol and beer. They also have a selection of Japanese movies/shows and anime to rent. Staff was friendly and prices are very good.

This is really a nice, very clean and wonderful Japanese market to buy specialty goods from. They have plates, rare frozen fish and more. If you are into Japanese foods, cutlery, or just want to find quality frozen meat like yellow tail, come here! You really wont be disappointed.

A delightfully immaculate Asian grocery store in suburban Pineville, Hatoya primarily features premium Japanese groceries and sundries at premium prices. Especially noteworthy is its broad selection of Japanese snacks and sweets. Hospitality is genuinely friendly and service is quaintly obliging at this compact shop.

Hatoya Mart is a hidden gem in Charlotte. Its an Authentic Japanese market/store with a fantastic selection of hot sauces, noodles, pastes, Japanese tea, beer, sake, ramen bowl, cosmetics, seafood, fresh produce, Mochi, Japanese candies you name it. They carry my favorite Japanese Natto (fermented soybean) and many more. They are priced reasonably, friendly staff, a must-visit.

Such awesome choices and very friendly people who work there! Plenty of parking. Make sure to check out their little fridge near the front with the sweets, I got the red bean cake mochi with black sesame covering it and it was AMAZING. Delicious ramen, toppoki and rice paper products as well. Also if you are looking for kewpie mayo - they have it here!

Great selection. Fun place.

Wonderful place. I found all the ingredients I needed watching TikTok videos. The clerk was extremely helpful and very nice. I will be making Hatoya Mart a regular stop.

What a perfect hidden little gem of a market. Accidentally found this store while going with my son to hardware store. All I can say is what a find. You can find absolutely anything there from fish, meat, buns, cooking pots, to bowles & plates. To dry good and yummy treats plus sake and beer. Wonderful store will most definitely be going back.

I love their new location. Fantastic selection of Asian food from Thai, Chinese, Japanese, and Cantonese groceries and dry foods. Wonderful customer service, very clean store and well organized. The family that owns and runs the market are very family friendly and speak both Japanese and English. Great Asian store to bulk up. I live in Rock Hill, via interstate Hatoya Market is so close. Just 15mins away. Thank you.

Hatoya Mart has absolutely everything you need to make a wonderful, fresh, delicious meal. The prices are extremely reasonable. Everyone should try it once...it wontons your last.

I love this place! Great authentic Japanese candy and snacks. I really loved that they have one of my favorite chili oil’s from my favorite ramen shop in Japan. This place rocks!

Honestly I cant give any opinion on this restaurant but I do know I only go out to the best and I look for the ones that are the most healthy restaurants so if I went there its probably good

I was looking for a meat grinder at the hardware shop next door and saw this place!! I was so excited there.is a lot of authentic Japanese goods here that had me beyond excited :) friendly staff

Amazing produce and japanese food! Its super clean and the owner(?) is very willing to answer any questions about the fish and other items :)

Selection of goods is really varied. All the homeware and tableware is excellent. Its always very clean and neat. The employees are always helpful and kind

Such a great store for unique japanese groceries and snacks. Lovely people.

Super cute Japanese grocery store. I wish I knew about this place a long time ago. They even have a book rack with japanese magazines of different topics. I love all of the kitchen ware that they carry from Japan. Worth a visit!

Great find. Had no idea they were here - and for nearly 30 years nonetheless. Clean, well organized, and if youre looking for DVDs this is where its at.

Great place! So much variety and everyone is so friendly. I usually go for candy and snacks, but they have drinks, alcohol, noodles, beauty and bath products, and books and movies. Its worth a look around!

Very fun place to explore! Wide selection of just about everything, a little overpriced though.

Very nice and helpful employees. They walked my son directly to the food he was looking for. Glad to have found this little gem.

I came looking for candy and this store sealed the deal for me! They had 3 aisles dedicated to snacks and candy. Hatoya is organized and one of the best groceries around. I highly recommend.

I love this store! The employees are so nice and kind. The have a great variety of items and groceries at very reasonable prices. Every time I go I wind up spending $50 and up but I come with 3 to 4 bags. Love this store!

I found this place so clean and organized every time I visited. They have a good selection of asian products. Friendly service as well. Highly recommended!

Excellent selection. Excellent customer service. Clean and well stocked. Four stars, to many items without prices! I dont like going to the register and oh no, not that item, oh no to much, not that item, ok I will take take; oh no not that. If I know the price, I can make my decision before I get to the register! Of course, my decision is to just not bother. No price, no purchase!

Great store. Making ramen and found everything needed. From fresh noodles to ground pork. Extremely helpful with finding some Japanese ingredients. Will certainly be coming back!

Honestly, the drive here may seem intense from areas like Tega Cay, Rock Hill, Fort Mill, York, ect. but this place is absolutely breathtaking and worth the drive. With every oriental product you can think of, a welcoming and fantastic staff, and prices that would normally be marked up anywhere from $3-$16 anywhere else, this place WELL deserves the 5 stars Im giving it!

Great selection. Purchased many foods to try. Very clean inside.

This place is a hidden gem!! They may be small but they have a great selection of ingredients, snacks, and even fresh produce!! They also have a lot of neat things you dont typically find at most asian groceries like ceramics, bento boxes and supplies, japanese books, and free used japanese magazines. It was definetly worth the drive and Ill definetly be visiting again.

I absolutely love this place. Its a japanese grocery store that is quite popular so they do run out of things then check back the next week or ask when they will get what you are looking for.

Great spot. Well maintained and everyone who works there is always very helpful and nice

They had a diverse selection and good inventory for the store. Nice environment. Prices were good and my daughter really liked it here.

I had a lovely experience here! The employees were kind, the store was very well stocked with a nice variety of items and everything was well priced! I’ll definitely be returning soon and would recommend that everyone try it out!

Always helpful and friendly. Alot of selection

Great selection of Japanese, and some other asian foods! Friendly staff. Good prices too~

Lots of Options available for purchase.Only critique is some things are a little high in price. But they have everything from rice (lots of good variety) to matcha, sake, etc. The store employees always know where everything is if you need help finding ingredients.

Found exactly what I was looking for!

I love this place. it has a wide variety of japanese foods and some housewares too

Good selection of groceries from Japan! Go to for ChuHi in Charlotte as well as ramen

I was able to find all kinds of fun Japanese snacks, food and beverage here!

Very cool specialty items!

First time shopper...there to get sushi for a sushi party...staff was helpful and food was excellent..we will be back again..lots of variety

I love Hatoya! It is the only Japanese market store in the Charlotte area and such a gem. They sell all the ingredients I need to cook Japanese comfort foods. Also they have lots of saké and fun snacks. The staff are really helpful and friendly. The store has expanded in the past few years and is now bigger! I am glad to go there when I miss my time living in Japan.

Great costumer service, great products at good prices. I love it so much!

Its a great place to shop for oriental items. Friendly.

Good merchandise. Great food selections. Great locations with good parking. No public bathroom. Looks closed with the blacked out windows but the have signs. A taste of little Tokyo!

Great prices! Great people!

Ive been practicing Japanese cuisine for a few months now and any time I cant find an ingredient locally, I always find it here. The store is clean and very well-stocked, but what stands out to me is how polite and helpful every employee I have met is! I also love coming here with friends or my fiancé to try the snacks and drinks, too. 😊 Hatoya rocks!

Good prices and so many good things to choose from! This is my favorite store!

Great place to get Japanese goods! They have a lot of stuff that I cant find at larger Asian markets, and the staff are friendly.

Very good selection. Very helpful workers. Very nice people.

Lots of Japan Goods and other asian goodies on sale. Nice staff.

Great selection and friendly staff

Lots of snacks, sauces, and frozen items that are difficult to find elsewhere. Good prices for most items.

If you cook Asian style recipes this is the perfect place to shop for hard to find ingredients. They have great fresh produce and the prices cant be beat. I love the variety of ramen and sauces. Best price on dried mushrooms Ive ever seen.

I love this market. It is so fun to go to and supplies all of my grocery needs! I love their rice crackers and their variety, and their candies. The only semi-bad part are the prices. Sometimes if you dont look hard enough, they can charge a lot for your items. I am good at finding good deals though, so its fine with me. I have no review on the point card yet, because I havent applied for one yet.

Love this place. Have been going here for years to get all of my Japanese ingredients.

Wanted to try the black sesame mochi but it had mold :( Didnt see it till I get home... So disappointed!

Great variety. Great value. Friendly staff. A very homey atmosphere.

Great store with awesome merchandise. Very friendly staff.

I have been shopping at Hatoya for many years now. The store has a good selection of authentic Japanese products you cannot find at other asian markets such as Grand Asia market or Super G. The staff are always pleasant and helpful is needed.

A little corner of japan right here in charlotte. I come here for all my Japanese ingredients and items you cant buy anywhere else. One of the few places in charlotte that sell A5 wagyu and sushi grade fish. A high recommend for anyone who wants or needs Japanese goods and groceries.

FINALLY!!!! A Japanese (truly Japanese) market where I can buy all the ingredients I need! This is awesome, just amazing. I will be visiting tomorrow!

Friendly staff, great prices, great selection!

Best Japanese store! Thank you for the nice staff and good stuff ! You can find anything you need here :) the boba packet from here is so good and the candys they have here, everything they got there is so good! Love that store! Can’t wait to come back soon to purchase more stuff!

Amazing. I loved every bit of my trip. So many things you cant find in any other Asian market. Will definitely be coming back!

Lovely authentic little place, a must go

Fantastic store with friendly staff and a wide selection of Japanese foodstuffs!

Nice grocery store, with a huge array of Japanese foodstuffs of all sorts and a decent selection of Japanese Sake and Beer. If you have an interest in Japanese cuisine youre likely to find what you are looking for here.

Im from KCMO and had my Iowan friend with me when we visited this store. In my area I can find daifuku alright but not home made Japanese bread or mitarashi dango. This store had both along with Pocari Sweat drink and C.C Lemon which I had been dying to try. Staff was super nice, even when we were in there til closing which we felt super bad for. The dango was amazing and I wish we had Hatoya here, you lucky locals. If we ever come back to NC were visiting again.

I love Hatoya I lived in Japan for 10 years and my wife is Japanese going to Hatoya is almost like shopping in Japan. The staff is very nice and the products are always fresh. Our go to spot!!

I love this place! I first went in looking for some variety in sake selection, but I ended up leaving with a full basket. They have all of the favorites that have become popular in America, but also so much cool and interesting merchandise I havent seen anywhere else.

We love Hatoya! It is just like the neighborhood Su-pa- we loved in Japan!

Love Hatoya!! They have everything and everything you are looking for with Japanese cuisine. The staff are always pleasant and the store is always clean and tidy. I highly recommend

Very easy to find and park. Store itself was easy to navigate and had a great selection of all kinds of Asian foods compared to main grocery chains. I went specifically for ramen and I thought they had a great selection of cheaper and gourmet instant ramen. Definitely recommend giving this place a try!

Wonderful store full of everything you need to make food that tastes like home. Plenty of quick meal options as well. It is full of fun things for the kids to try like candy or sweets. I love Hatoya. It is so hard to find the soba I grew up with but they have something similar here and its just as delicious. I make regular trips to Hatoya and they always have something new.

If you are looking for specific products this place has them. Its a quaint shop with plenty of items to choose from. A small selection of fresh items but more so Frozen and packaged foods. Theres even a small section with dishes cookware and videos in Japanese. Customer service is always up to par!

Hatoya is an outstanding small market for Japanese groceries and snacks. Not a konbini but dry goods, refrigerated, frozen, and a small amount of baked goods. This market specializes in Japanese products and includes a section of housewares (plates, chopsticks, etc.). The staff are polite and helpful.

Very good Japanese grocery. We are from Greenville and this is the best Japanese food store within a couple hours drive. Better than anything in Atlanta. Nice sashimi grade fish selection.

Always a great experience shopping here. Always can find new things to try along with staple classics.

One of my favorite stores, great selection and awesome customer service

I love it!

Aboslutely love this store! Really miss Japan and all the yummy food so really excited I found a place here where I can get all the ingredients to make my favorite dish and also get my favorite drinks and sweet treats ❤🤩 everyone is always so friendly and welcoming. Thank you Hatoya Mart!

We just went in for wonton wraps to make gyoza, and we came out with some other cute stuff too! They have all sorts of cute bowls, tea cups, sake cups and chops sticks. They have Japanese books and TV shows as well. Cute little place. Loved it!

Good experience. A lot of variety, including finding items that areProduct of Japan. Friendly service with really good, efficient packing (we brought our own bags).

Took a trip to Hatoya Japanese Mart and was pleasantly surprised by the endless variety, along with the store staff being very inviting and friendly as well.I originally came shopping for spring roll sheets to create a Philippine dish, but found so many hidden gems that had me in the store shopping for everything from Japanese Anime to Japanese wines. Within each aisle, there are collections of goods and merchandise labeled with English and Japanese kanji, so for those interested in learning the Japanese language, it is a great place to shop. Their book and dvd selection is also massive, so it would be an excellent place for gifts, presents, etc.If I had to make any suggestions, definitely give yourself enough time to search around, as the aisles can become slightly overwhelming with so many options and when shopping with a time constraint can be very tough. I spent a good 40 minutes browsing through the store and still didn’t see all that I wanted to see. Currently the stores hours are until 7 PM, so if you’re going in early, you can make the most of the time.I will definitely be visiting again soon to shop for more food items and find more great things. Highly recommend.

Every sense i have had a japan crate i have loves Japanese culture and this just helps me attach to it a little more

Amazing selection for newcomers. Overall, very helpful staff and great items. P.S, if you havent tried Ramune before, they sell the lychee flavor and its amazing!

A hidden gem for Charlotte. Dominantly and authentically a mini Japanese grocery store!! Love its not appropriated and stays true to its roots. Worth checking out if youre looking for ramen, authentic Japanese snacks and mixes for your dish. Some selection of Sushi grade fish and minimal produce, but for Charlotte, not bad. Appreciate the culture there. Super friendly. =)

Great store with hard to find imported Asian goods. I wish they had more produce, but overall i like this place and i keep coming back to buy the xylitol gum and sometimes some candy.

老い I love cooking and hatoya mart is a place in Japan too I like the fact that they have bentos.🐼

Very friendly, and amazing variety of authentic japanese food! Definitely a regular trip to make.

I used to live in Japan and miss it every single day. Having this market in Charlotte is awesome. Some of the imported items are a little more but that makes sense. The fresh veggies and other things like that are very reasonable. What a wonderful place. They also have a pretty good selection of Sake (日本酒).

This is one of Charlottes only true Japanese grocery stores that I can think of. It is not really an Asian market so to speak but truly a dedicated Japanese grocery store.The young lady or gentleman who work the front register speak very little English however they are the most helpful and friendly people that you will ever encounter in a retail store trying to help you the best that they possibly can.If you are looking for something also such as a Japanese type gift or Japanese candy it possibly can be found here if not at your local Asian market you can also get Japanese DVD movies here to rent.Anytime I am in the area I always stop in just to walk around even if I only buy a few packages of soup in a bunch of different packages of candies because they are so friendly when you walk in I absolutely love it.

Ive been here a few times. It is the ONLY place I know where I can find natto, which I really like on occasion. I will return here for the natto alone.They also have a wide selection of Japanese snacks (which are really worth sampling) and a few surprises such as Cafe du Monde coffee with chicory at a VERY REASONABLE price. It is also a good place to find things such as matcha powder, curry, miso paste, bonito flakes, etc. There are also some selections of cakes which are hard to find elsewhere.Just drop in and browse. You are sure to find SOMETHING you like. Or just take a chance and discover something new.

This place, though small, is a little piece of Japan and it is amazing. After living in Japan for a year and coming back, there were a ton of things I missed that you could not find anywhere, even other Asian markets. However, after coming here to get some rice (went to Super G Mart prior, but this place was closer) I was surprised to find so many things that I missed and for a decent price. Definitely a place to check out!

This place was very clean and the staff was helpful. Lots of options Ive never seen or heard of before(Im not Japanese) it was a great experience to shop here. Would definitely come back.
