Good enough for Vietnamese and Chinese food ingredients. Not sure about the meat quality. I think Ranch 99 has better meat quality. I tend to shop here because they have the stuff that I need for my Vietnamese dishes consistently.

Small Viet market but has everything I need. Including when Im too tired to cook, but want something healthy and homey-- I can buy a fish here and they will clean and deep fry nice and crispy onsite! Add a pot of rice, a dipping sauce, and steamed veggies. Dinner done.

Decent little Viet market on the slums of Oakland providing good food to decent hard working people.Went for a rice paper holder and actually found one. Kudos! Thank you! (For spring rolls)

Solid Asian market with a Vietnamese focus. They have a good and broad selection, and Im able to find pretty much everything I need whenever I come here. Main downside is that the layout of the store is fairly cramped, and it can get crowded and claustrophobic.

My husband and I specifically come here all the time to buy fresh seafood!!!! We also enjoy selecting from the variety of meats, vegetables, fruits and everything you can think of that an Asian market. Prices are reasonable and the customer service is great and sometimes even quite comic!

This is an Asian market. They have fresh meat, chicken, and seafood. They also have live fish, live crab, and live lobster in their tanks. Sometimes you can also find plenty of fresh oyster there. Everything is clean, and the staffs are friendly. They also have a parking for customer, but its small, so sometimes its full, especially on the weekends.

I used to shop here, I liked to shop here because they has a parking lot. I dont like plastic bags, so I bought a wheeled bag. today, I walked in the door with the bag then a male employee stopped me behind me, and a female employee stopped me in my front. They asked me they want to keep my bag while I was in their store.I respect their rules, so I wont shop here because I didnt get respected.

Absolutely authentic Asian grocery with vast array of high quality vegetables, many of which my wife cannot identify by name. Mostly fresh, but no safety net here, pay attention to the obvious. Super tight parking outside, super tight aisles inside.

Review №18

Great produce quality and price. Makes whole foods look like a Costco that caters to ppl who dont manage any kind of sizable pantry. Might be the best place in town to get farm fresh brown eggs, and quail eggs too. Butchers section has great looking meats. Attendency is super helpful and security personnel at the door are kind and respectful.

Early Sunday we went to grab some groceries because my kids grandmother was making Pho Ga. We picked up some things at Sun Hop Fat and went to Lees Sandwiches where my two and a half year old son wanted a bag of Calbee shrimp chips. On the way home, we were driving down e12th when we decided to stop by Thien Loa Hoa Supermarket. Parked on the side and walked in with my 13 year old daughter and my son eating his bag of Shrimp Chips. We walked around the store and grabbed some items. The mother of my kids came in, grabbed the basket and she went to the line to pay. I was walking with my son and saw that one of the ladies was staring at my son and I. I went to hand the mother of my kids some money when my son headed straight for the door. I followed him outside and turned to see one of the workers chasing us out the store. I told her We already bought this somewhere else. and she seemed to turn around upset. Unbeknownst to me they told the mother of my kids to not bring anything in the store that they sell. Your accusing a two and a half year old baby of stealing a two dollar bag of shrimp chips. Seriously if I was inside when they told the mother of my kids what the lady at the register did I would have flipped out, returned all the items I paid for and got my money back. Now I know why we stopped coming here in the first place.

A one stop shop for Asian groceries. Have your veggies, butcher, seafood, snacks. Not the cleanest place ever but you get good deals and fresh meats.

This is not a large supermarket like a Safeway ,Luckys, etc.This is Vietnamese market sells a wide variety of live, fresh, frozen and canned seafood, as well as fresh and preserved meats. They have just about everything you might need to prepare Vietnamese food.
