It was my first time in the market and I'd have to say the staff was not very friendly... At all. I went because when I looked up on Google "what market or store can I find a whole salmon for dinner?" - this place was suggested. So I got in my car and traveled the about 24 miles from my home. They were rude and they did not have salmon. By rude, I mean I was not greeted or approached at all like the other customers I watched come into the store... They were helped before me and when I went up to the clerk, she was very short with her answers and didn't look at me. She didn't even have to think at all about her answer. She just told me no right away. I understand some cultural idiosyncracies, so I'd get over the not looking at me if I didn't see the clerk look right at her other customers.

Dried noodles/crackers/fruit/meats, canned veg/meats/delicacies, and cool picks for seasonal tropical goods.

Parking is easier if you can turn right into this business as evergreen way can get busy, and if your car is longer be mindful that the parking spots aren't...
Read moreBecause it's a new year, my family always buys 15-20 bags of rice to last for the year. We came home and was short one bag. Called the store to discuss what we should do about this and the manager was basically saying we're lying. He proceeded to laugh and brush off what I said and hung up on me while I was asking him a question. I was shocked because I wasn't even being a "Karen". Nor was I rude from start to finish. I know it's a busy time for them but he could've handled this better. No longer "my friend". If you know, you know. A few years ago, this place was amazing. But as of lately, the quality of veggies have gone down significantly; they're rotting in a bag. Next time, I'll be hitting up Evergreen Asian Market down the road. They're cleaner, nicer, AND have...
