Green Farm Market — Attraction in Fountain Valley

Unless ur of any Asian decent I don't see how this market is of use unless their prices r better for meat which I wasn't there for. I was told to go there for the stuff I needed by my roommate (Vietnamese) But not 1 item was there. Not even soda (reg) N I cud t find 1 worker that spoke English so I asked 3 customers if they did n the 3rd girl did n asked the 2 questions for me but to now avail I left frustrated n empty handed n went to Trader Joe's. I was soo out of my element at Green! The thing that bothered me the utmost was the employees I was TRYING HARD to converse with were not nice n didn't want to be bothered trying to understand each other or help me find some other employee that might out of all of them working, n if someone is gonna try n tell me maybe NONE of them spoke English, noooo! I don't believe that n if that's the case then my international language (hand gestures) we all knew. Like I understood when the 1st employee wanted me to go away she, with both hands like she was batting at flies SHEWED motions to go! go! away. That was rude. But I thought there's got to be someone nice but doesn't understand. That I wish respond to. The meet employee didn't want to help n I actually pointed out what I wanted n that's when I asked the customer to translate how much I needed but he said.no!no! n walked away. The customer was embarrassed n said he saying he doesn't have enough. But she said "I don't know y cause it's right there" That's when I realized 100% I was having a discrimination Attack by the whole store n I got the heck out of there! That is a store that the ppl need to PASS a course in kindness n discrimination n rudeness! That was my experience for a lifetime. Green Market "Shame on u!!!" 😭

I am redoing this review n apologizing to Green Farm Market. I gave this terrible review above to them n it was the wrong name!. My deepest apologies for anything that might have come do to it. I had just moved to the area 1 1/2 weeks prior n still only know a couple of streets . The actual store that literally kicked me out was ABC Market (Asian Market) parking lot is the equivalent of a Street Fair to American only smelly n filthy. They literally don't like Americans there. I've been back 3 of 4 times with my vietnamese roommate (not in the market) in the small stores, bakeries etc . N if looks cud kill I'd be dead. No more. I go to normal places, american, where I'm welcome. But now I see y there's hatred n questions between nationalities. Come to USA n hate us??? That's nice. I don't recommend any other nationalities go near there. But that's what they...

I came to the store today to return a tumeric tea which I bought less than 24 hours I brought the item and the receipt at the cashier. The cashier asked the manager/ supervisor for my return. Thelady manager/ supervisor was very rude , she started talking in Vietnamese and when she realized I don’t speak the language she spoke in English.At first she asked me if I showed the tea to the guard when I entered the store, I said no. She started talking in a loud voice telling me I shoud have shown the tea when I came inside so they will see it on camera. I said I didn’t know your policy, do you want me to show it to the guard or you can show it to the guard. She kept on talking on a loud voice to me telling me that I’m not nice to her, she even said just like at walmart, you ask where to return. I said I’m sorry this is the first time I’m returning item to this store, maybe you should put a sign where to go to return an item and know I know the process of returning an item to your store. She was very rude, I just felt that she’s not happy I’m returning an item or maybe thought I stole the tea. I felt so embarrassed because our conversation was heard by everyone, I had to raise my voice because this lady is annoyed that I did not show the tea to the guard. I was just ready to leave the store and forget it and just give her the tea. $3.00 something is not worth to be treated rudely by this lady, she has poor customer service. Instead of telling me nicely the store policy in returning items, she was very loud and treating me like a kid. I told her she should be nice to me but she told me I should be nice to her. This manager/ supervisor lady definitely needs to improve her customer service, she needs to improve her communication skills. Maybe she can learn from Walmart employees on how to provide good customer service. I shop at Green farm once in a while and I don’t have problems with the rest of the staff although most of them are Vietnamese speaking. I hope the management will put a sign on the store’s policy on returning items. I hope Green farms management will listen and do something about...

Green Farm Market (GFM) is a large Asian food supermarket.

GFM offers a large selection of fresh vegetables. An entire wall is devoted to prepackaged Chinese and Vietnamese leafy greens. The cellophane bags' contents are consistently of high enough quality so that you could randomly take any one home and be satisfied. The turnover is great. The prices and selection shame the supermarket chains.

There are rows of stands full of Asian and American bulk fruits and vegetables. The bagged and loose items are usually of good variety, quality, and price. The exception would be the discount seasonal fruits like oranges and grapefruits that sometimes are price two, three, four or five pounds per dollar (vs. one pound per dollar at a supermarket chain).

In the back are several tanks of live fish and crustaceans. There are counters of fish on ice; frozen and dried seafood; a butcher counter that can prepare and deep fry your fish selection for free;

In the center of GFM are aisles that contain a single category of product. Teas, snacks, canned vegetables, spices, canned meats, dried noodles, dried Asian miscellaneous (roots, beans, mushrooms), soy sauce, sauces, kitchen hardware, Asian condiments, rice (up to twenty-five-pound bags), etc.

When I go grocery shopping, I stop at Aldi, Green Farm Market, and Albertsons. Last time, I bought eggs and spring-mix from Aldi; I bought fresh rice noodles, ground pork, a dozen fruits and vegetables from Green Farm Market; and, some meat from Albertsons. I think...
