Awesome store. There is an insane variety packed into this relatively small space. Lots of fresh u0026 frozen items in addition to packaged foods. I was able to find everything I wanted and plenty more. And the staff were all incredibly friendly.

This store sometimes carries what Im looking for. Prices are so-so, but its definitely harder to find an Asian food market comparable to the stores that I was used to up north (like Hmart). I like the selection of items in the snack section and they usually have the sauces that I need. I recommend this place for the snacks, tea, and noodle selection, but everything else is sort of pricey. Buy your veggies elsewhere unless youre looking for specialty/exotic fruits.

It is a decent size store. They carry little of everything, fresh vegetables, snacks, sauces, canned, dried food, frozen. They have an aisle just for instant noodle. I think due to the size, they cant carry large variety of merchandise, but you can still find what you need if you are not too picky about brandThe most impressive thing us they have a fridge just for Hotpot meat. And interesting choice if bakery.

This place has everything you need to cook Asian cuisine. Including the cook wear, bowls, chopsticks 🥢...you name it. I head straight for the fresh produce, fresh in season fruits and vegetables at a great price. They have frozen or dried Lo Mein noodles, frozen dim sum u0026 the steamer to cook it in!! Oh, and the selection of dried mushrooms will blow your mind! 🤯 I drive about 25 miles (one way) to get here, it is worth the trip. The owners are helpful u0026 friendly.

I live in Key West but frequent Gainesville often to see family. I will always make it a point to stop in at Chin Chung! Wonderful selection of products but what keeps me coming back is the friendly and genuinely kind staff. The owner even gave me a styrofoam cooler from the back of the store so I could transport my frozen foods home! Now that’s service.

I have such a deep rooted love for this market. Ive been coming here since I was a child and Chun Ching Market has never disappointed. Their prices are unbeatable! The staff is always so kind and helpful.

Review №24

Many vegetarian options. A bit expensive so we stopped buying the frozen vegetarian goods and got ours at Publix instead. However, this is where we buy tofu and fresh veggies. Fruits are good but overly expensive. The place is disorganized, with veggies everywhere and goods all over the place. I bought expired goods from the freezer once. So be careful when you shop.

Review №31

I’ve been to every Asian grocery store in Gainesville and this is the best one! They have their aisles organized by country- Japanese, Vietnamese, Malaysian, Korean, etc; a great selection of fresh vegetables, meats, and fish; they also have a ton of noodles, teas, and rice options; and a little bakery section with pastries from Sweet Buns Bakery. So happy I found this place and I highly recommend it. I always get vegetables I can’t find at American supermarkets like lotus root, red spinach, and gai lan!The only issue I’ve had is that I got a Matcha soy milk which came out of the carton in big clumps and was therefore spoiled (although the date was still good). Overall, would highly recommend. It looks a little run down, but don’t let that fool you! Aside from aesthetics they have all the things you would ever need.

Review №38

This is my favorite oriental market in Gainesville. They have the best variety of vegetables, meats, seafood and frozen foods. Their prices are probably the lowest of any oriental market in Gainesville. I come here to buy all my ingredients for dumplings, pho, etc.Double check if this is still their schedule but they usually bring in fresh vegetables and pastries on Wednesday morning. They sometimes have cooked peking duck for sale as well as other cooked food.I generally come here for ingredients for meals that I expect to make, namely oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, dumpling wrappers and vegetables.

Review №39

Some of the best deals on produce! My go to spot for mushrooms, they have a slight smell of berries (good thing!) that not even Eastern Market, Whole Foods, Fresh Market can match.Im always trying different snacks each trip and have found seaweed strips that I now cannot live without and prawn crackers that remind me of England. They also have addicting mochi and bubble tea packets.I love coming here, and the people who work here are a huge reason for that too. Dont be afraid to ask questions rather than walk away with something you dislike because of a language barrier. Theyre all super helpful, even if its busy. Try the sweet buns, especially taro and custard! Try all the mochi! :)They also have vegetarian alternatives, check the last freezer on the right before hitting the tea/spice aisle.Thanks for all the good food!

Went here to buy crab sticks. At register was charged $3 over the marked price on the shelf. Attendant just mentioned they were good and the price is right at $3 more. I didnt argue, but after tasting them, they clearly werent worth the price. Will try the market on 23/13st next time.

Love this place!!! My girlfriend is Vietnamese so I obviously had to come here. It’s like any other asian market, amazing selection of foreign goods, including fruits, veggies, meats, and snacks. I do half my shopping every week here and absolutely recommend their kim-chi and seaweed salad. Prices seem comparable to most others i’ve been too, and the staff is super nice. They also have apple pay!

Review №59

If you want relatively fresh vegetables, this is a good option. Also, you can get some nice selections of Asian food. One concern is that their meat is based on a package with no information and i found out that the beef I bought was over-weighted. The cashier might have made a mistake or something. Also, you pay for the container weight at the beef price.

Based on a small city standard, it is a decent food market. They got a lot of groceries, fresh vegetables, some fresh meats, and seafood. They got many type of flours and rice, noodles. Forzen food selection was good but they got some wried setup where they put clear hard plastic cover on top of the chest freezers with the cover opened. Price is reasonable and expected with small Asian population.

The place is great, the owner is nice too. But there is this Chinese female cashier who is rude and annoying. My gift card did not work when I swiped it, so she had to put those numbers manually. Her attitude makes me feel like I own her! She also said, how much is left in the card? You’d better throw it away. And “spend it all asap”. Very rude. Don’t know if I will go back there again after spending the balance, although I do like the other Asian female staff who is very nice and kind.

This is not a big store but definitely couldnt be called a small store. It appears that they try to carry everything possible. The variety in there was impressive! The store is dated but it doesnt seem to affect its functionality. Courteous staff. Prices were acceptable not that you couldnt find it for less but in doing so you might pay for it in the extra gas. Its a little far for me but my wife said she would come back even with the drive.If your looking for a lot of different items you should definitely try this place out.

Ive been going to this Asian market for a long time and have seen it through 2 different owners. Really nice customer service and they offer alot of cool snacks here. The fresh produce and goods usually come in Thursday or Friday selling out quickly. The dry goods are pretty diverse and not so expensively priced. But the store and parking can get busy during peak hours.

Cheated me out of a discount of 50% and only gave me 10% even after I told her it was outdated and the manager said I could purchase it at 50% less than marked. I even had the manager tell the cashier. And still got cheated. Would not recommend this store to anyone.

I enjoy eating a wide variety of food and have been shopping at Chun Ching Market for over 15 years. Their current location is an improvement over their previous one, and their selection of refrigerated and frozen items expanded greatly. I mostly buy canned and bottled food and condiments but do occasionally pick up fresh veggies. They have a very nice rice room with a wide selection of grains. Hands down, they are my go-to Asian food market.

I visited today for the first time to buy some beef bones for pho, which were easy to find.

MORE LIKE CHA-CHING MARKET... with all the money theyre making off of me there. Really nice market with a very broad selection of Asian foods.Great place to go for the culinary enthusiast looking to learn how to cook Asian food, or for the broke college student looking for a premium on cheap dumplings.
