A mostly Korean foods supermarket with some Japanese and other Asian products as well. All of the Korean foods and spices that you'd imagine, lots of kinds of packaged ramen, sauces & marinades, hot chilies, rices & dried beans. Asian kitchenwares as well- knives, rice cookers, pots and strainers, good quality snap lid containers, etc etc etc. A decent selection of Korean and Japanese beer and liquor as well- sake, soju, shochu, plum wine, etc etc. A well stocked and very reasonably priced produce department with many staples that you'd find in a western supermarket and also lots of cabbages, radishes, shishito peppers, greens, garlic sprouts, bean sprouts and other assorted "Asian" specific produce.

Fresh/ frozen noodles, dumplings etc etc and a very nice kimchi bar with a very good assortment of freshly made Korean pickles sold in bulk by weight. At the other end of the store is a bakery typical of the kind you'd see in Japan or Korea- very well made French style individual breads and pastries- grab a tray and tongs, fill it up and go to the cashier. The front of the store has several stalls selling high end Korean & Japanese cosmetics, diet tonics, fat loss gizmo machines, cell phones and accessories as well as a few quick service cafes with sushi, noodles etc. If you live anywhere near Northridge and are culinarily or culturally curious, definitely go here and spend some time and some cash. Access to places like this is why we live in the big city. Huge parking lot outside, parking is...

On my latest visit I can say that the Produce Department is still a great resource. A 10 pound bag of Idaho Russets are still selling at a great price. I also noticed that the Roma Tomatoes are big, plump, and juicy. The Produce Department is always well maintained, and they always have great sales on Fresh Produce. Plus, Rice another staple, is still frequently on sale at an awesome price.

I need to have rice on hand at all times. So, I definitely picked up more the last time rice was on sale. The Japanese brand I've loved for years. However, I've discovered a Korean brand here that's every bit as good. My mom tells me they also have ready cooked rice at very reasonable prices.

My mom was born and raised in Idaho, so I'm very familiar with russet potatoes. Recently, I've noticed 10lbs. of Idaho russets selling at an incredible price. Much better than mass merchandisers, and even discount wholesalers. Not only is the price extremely good. The quality is excellent, and they seem to last long in storage as well. And, I know I've never seen sale prices on green onions at a better price, except at another Korean Market.

This is a very nice Korean market. The produce department is always very well maintained and stocked. The vegetables are always fresh and fairly priced.

Of course they have all kinds of Korean items, but they also have lots of other Asian items as well. It's very convenient that I can find a lot of Japanese items I use frequently. I've especially noticed in the last few months the incredible sale prices they have had on medium grain rice. I pick up a bag every time they're on sale.

If you're looking for Asian ingredients it's a great resource, with very good...

Tried to shop at this Korean Supermarket "Galleria Market" recommended by my wife's friend and found it to be a bit pricey and doesn't have all items I typically see at the Korea Town markets. Prepared fresh items such as Kimchi and other fermented items are scattered from one side of the left side of the store. I had picked up Kimchi on one end and as we were getting in line to pay, we were passing by more Kimchi and also cooked hot foods. We enjoyed the Hot Boiled Corn though. I couldn't find the Multi-pack disposable wooden chopsticks so I ask one of the Hispanic stockperson and pointed me to the single individually wrapped personal type chopsticks. It’s not as great as other other markets I've visited in the past but it'll do for the area.

They also have a Food Court. We tried K Foods and I ordered the #13 Bibimbop for $7.99. I thought I ordered something with meat but as I started to mix the sauce on the dish, I couldn't see any meat so I went to the counter to see the picture on the wall of menu photos and I saw meat. I brought my food back to the counter and told the lady that I don't see any meat in my dish. She said they only put a little bit and started to point at the Ground Meat pieces on the dish as she's about to touch the food with her pointing finger. She said again that they only put a little bit but she She then started to ask me if I want more but before I got to answer, she already went to get the additional meat and during her walk to the kitchen, an old man possibly the owner rudely said that they only put a little and pointed out the price of $7.99. The lady returned from. The kitchen poured ithe addition meat onto my dish. I thanked her and returned...
