Asian & American Market — Local services in Fargo

Best Asian and Other Ethnic Grocery in ND! Really love this Asian, South Asian, Southeast Asian, Filipino, Halal, African & Caribbean + Market! Having been spoiled with the plethora of great ethnic groceries in NYC, CA, and NJ, I didn’t expect a lot from a grocery in Fargo North Dakota. But you will see for yourself that you can get so many fresh goodies from all over the world in this one special place. Prices are very reasonable. The owner is very friendly and nice. It’s clean … without that old food, dried and preserved odor, smell of old meat ethnic store … because some store are not clean. And the spices and overwhelm you with all kinds of smells mixed with dust. But this grocery takes very good care to have strong lighting to see what you need, has updated fresh items, doesn’t have the unsightly meat rack of pig heads and feet (I can’t look at slaughtered animals not only bc I’m mostly vegetarian but bc it just looks scary to me and not appetizing), and has so many great brands and foods from different nations. There were 5 Chocó Pie flavors (Korean marshmallow pie). But I also found a gem I can’t find anywhere … After Eight Mints! It was so amazing and I had to buy it! I also bought Indian food, Korean ramen, Filipino Turón (which is a plátano w filó dough like wrap with honey or other sauce) impossible to find in most cities unless it’s one w a high concentration of Filipinos), halal chocolate…etc. I stock up when I’m here because it’s a distance for me but I am very...

WOW!! I can't say enough good things about this market! I've been fortunate to have lived in Asia for over 1 year. I've always found it hard to bring back the tastes I experienced, until now.

The selection of Asian ingredients is Off The Chain. If they don't have it it doesn't exist. Their selection of Indian foods and ingredients is equally as good.

I also do 80% of all my shopping here. Their vegetable selections are amazing. Hard to find Asian veggies. And super fresh. The selection of meats (hard to find cuts) is fantastic, and the fish selection is wonderful.

A treat I just discovered they have is Balut! A Filipino street food and delicacy. A bit of the Deep End Of The Food Pool :-) Try it once, just don't look at it before you bite.

The prices are fantastic and can't be beat and a discount for paying cash! Lastly, the entire staff is amazingly friendly, and so helpful. They go out of there way to see to it you find what you want and have a great shopping experience.

Don't forget hot Lechon on Saturdays!! Great job, Fargo is lucky to have you, Jamie

Very interesting and large store. Cuisine's from Mexico to India and southeast Asia seem well stocked. Frozen shrimp,whole fish, goat, black duck, etc looked nicely hard frozen. Duck eggs on the shelves along with some of my favorite hard to find flours like millet and masareppa. Fruit drinks that are all juice,no added sugar and a lot of organic packaged foods along with some produce were healthy options but there were also all kinds of snacks,treats,sauces from everywhere and many frugal products could be found in the dried spices( small bottles go a long way) and the legumes ( 30+ varieties!). A whole isle of Asian noodles for the noodle lovers( almost everyone) and I never made my way to the rice isle. Next time I'll check the rice. I'm definitely going back. They take credit cards at the modern cash register. I gave 4 stars because some shelves are dirty from oily jars and the grime that can come with imported cases. The store smells mildly of crab and fish which cannot be helped while the new shipment was being put in the...
