I dont know what all of the things they have there are, but by God if you want some kind of Asian ingredients then they have it! Fun just to browse and look at all the cool things they have like fresh and frozen foods, thousands of sauces, drinks, candies, ramen, spices, and even Asian products of all kinds. How they pack so many things into such a small store is mind boggling. And the prices are great, even if you go in just to look around youll end up walking out with something that caught your eye.

Great selection of anything you need. Staff is very friendly and will help you find exactly what your looking for. Fresh vegetables and an incredible selection of potstickers and other things such as shelled edamame for only 2 dollars frozen. Loads of Ramen. If you like Asian foods and sauces go here!

Perhaps my favorite store in all of Wilimington. I come here for my korean noodles, spices and sauces and Lotte Choco Pies.💜 This is also my go to choice to stop for ice cream. If Im having a bad day and need to feed my soul youll find me here in the deep freezer grabbing my frozen red bean paste ice cream fish.

Great selection of staples and products. I particularly like the fresh/frozen noodle options and produce.

My family and I love coming here every time were in Wilmington! It reminds me of when I lived in Okinawa and when I visited South Korea. I get to introduce my kids to things I remember getting overseas, and we get our favorites, as well as try new things. A must visit if youre interested in Asian culture and food!

Best international market hands down. It was the first place I went to after moving from Los Angeles more than 8 years ago.The place is beyond clean, the products top notch, and if you cant find what you are looking for, they would likely order it for you.Great produce, well organized, friendly with good parking.Most importantly, the customer service is absolutely outstanding. Jenny and her crew go above and beyond and are clearly some of the hardest workers you will ever come upon.Sriracha, mochi, tofu, dumplings, chopsticks, lottery tickets, green tea, togarashi... These are a few of my favorite things. And they are all here, well priced and so fun to shop for! Kudos all the way!!!

This place is great! We drove down from Raleigh to check this place out because my wife is always wanting to look for good Asian food stores. We found this on google so made a day trip down. It was well worth the drive down. The prices were good, selections were excellent and staff beyond friendly and helpful. She had a list of things she wanted and got everything she was after and more. We will definitely be back.

My daughter and I enjoy a trip to Asian life Market. Its cool..I just dont like that there isnt ever anyone there to answer any questions about anything. Youd pretty much need to be an expert on all things Asian when you are shopping here.

Took me a couple months after moving down to find a place to buy sashimi-grade fish. The sushi chef at Publix Surf City told me this is where they buy their fish. The prices are reasonable you get the full slab of salmon, they have tuna and yellowfin tuna. I generally get 6 6-8oz servings out of the Salmon which I zip and freeze.

I just moved from Thailand here to Wilmington and I can tell you that this is the store to go if you want product from Asia and in may case I found so many product from Thailand that I was very surprised, staff is very friendly and anything you ask they answer you, price are very reasonable for been all imported products.

I come here at least once a week... I love coming here to get my Indian spices and foods. Im from a Caribbean Island called Trinidad&Tobago where there is a heavy Indian diaspora and Im from a mixed family. I adore Indian food and its also apart of the culture I grew up with. It please me plenty that I can find the spices I need to recreate the meals of my childhood!! Aaah bless, this place is here!

Great place! They have 5 different types of anything u can imagine youd find in an Asian speciality grocery. Great prices as well!!

Review №39

I absolutely adore this shop. An amazing selection of food and kitchen accessories you cant normally find elsewhere. We always come to stock up on new flavors of ramen (they have about a BILLION) and we always find some new foods/spices/condiments to try. Weve discovered so many new foods that have become kitchen staples in our house. And we always try to guess what our final bill is going to be... Everytime I think its going to be $50-$60 and its rarely above $35. The prices are amazing. And the employees are SUPER helpful when youre looking for a specific item or just recommendations. We live about 45 minutes from Wilmington but EVERY time we come to Wilmington, we head straight here to stock up. ❤️

In our opinion, the best Korean grocery store in the whole area. store is small but well-stocked and the staff is helpful. If they dont have what you want they will order for you from their Rhee Brothers catalog

I love this store. It is clean, and well organized. The prices are very competitive. If you need something that is not in stock, tell the owner and she will try to find it for you. Their vegetables are fresh, they also have variety of flavorings and sauces. I also like their snack foods.

Review №45

This is a little market that has almost everything you need to make your Asian dinner. I don’t feel it’s Korean centric as other reviewers have said, I was able to find my Korean go to’s, but I also found my Thai ingredients as well. The staff is friendly, helpful and they know the store well. I look forward to frequenting this store in the future.

If youre looking for Kim Chi, then they sell by the bucket and it comes cubed, sliced, or whole. Shelves and rows of plenty good products and wide selection of frozen items. This was my first visit, but Im going back.

Its a cute little shop filled with Asian grocery items you often find people testing in YouTube videos. Couple of refrigerated things could stand for some clearer price tag. Friendly, but not the annoying finding everything okay? She suggested I buy a different product, (a more expensive one) than I had brought to the counter, but couldnt tell me why the second product was different/better besides the price.

The best Asian grocery store to visit hands down. They are more Chinese focused, however, there are ample Korean, Indian, and southeast Asia products.Fresh produce. Kind staff. Rock bottom prices.Dont go elsewhere. Just shop here and you wont be disappointed.My wife and I regularly buy Enoki mushrooms, HK brand ramen, and various snacks. All solid quality, fresh, and otherwise great.

Review №61

There are a couple asian markets in town and to be fair theyre all good. Asian Market definitely rates up there in the top for me.While the location is a bit cramped, its because they are absolutely packed to the brim with products. Everything from fresh to frozen. Candies, desserts, produce, teas and cookware.If youre looking for any kind of noodle, egg, rice, ramen you can find it here. Great selection of curries as well.Fishes and massive amounts of seafood are stocked and kept available. The staff is always ready to jump up and assist you. Definitely recommend to any true asian food enthusiast.
