Hidden gem!Great selection, cozy little shop. Excellent customer service!Quality products and diverse selection including housewares.Everything you need including cooking supplies and utencils.Even gift items.Try the delicious dried persimmon!

I love small privately owned little markets like this. The variety is awesome! Surprised they even have a refrigerates section. These types of business are invaluable to our community and we should all continue to support places like this.

Small, yet humble store. I found some really good Asian food snacks that I could not normally find in 99 Ranch. Parking can be a hassle, but nevertheless this store has a decent amount of selection of Asian items and groceries.

This little mom & pop store has been here for decades (no change), and specializes in authentic Japanese food and produce. This shack is reminiscent of the many little stores in any Japanese town or city back streets. I personally love the atmosphere and selection.

Very nice! It had everything we needed and even with asking questions about where things are repeatedly (^_^;) they helped us! Excited to come back here again!

Very nice small japanese market. I go there regularly because of their great selection of miso paste. They have a small but excellent selection of sashimi grade fish. Reminds me of mom and pop stores in Hawaii. They have Futomaki on weekends, and can sell out by afternoon.

This place has been the best kept secret in Walnut Creek for decades. Dont be discouraged by the shoddy exterior. This place has everything you could possibly need to prepare Japanese food at home.

Convenient close and fills the needs if most of my Japanese dishes.

People working there are helpful & friendly. Market has frozen food area, a small fresh veggie area & everything else i want for Japanese cooking. Additionally, they have some non-grocery items from Japan, including a long textured washcloth that I love (made from nylon, i think).

I found this hidden gem recently and absolutely love it! The prices are very affordable and its unfortunate I wasnt aware of this place earlier since grocery stores charge double and sometimes triple for items such as baby corn,chili oil, ECT.The owner is very sweet and keeps his store very organized and clean.You can find produce, meat, refrigerated items, and shelf items.Parking is in the back or if you live in the neighborhood I would suggest walking like I do!

They always have what I need or want.

Very neat little shop. Huge variety of foods and asian housewares. Process seemed a little high, but that might just be me.

Cute little Asian market specializing in Pacific island treats. They have a small fish market on ice and tons of knick knack items. Everything you need to whip up a good pot of rice, saimen, or sushi. They stock commercial appliances as well as crafted teapots and cute plates and mugs.

They get fresh poi every Thursday and all the kine good munchies.

I love that Walnut Creek has a home for Hawaiian and Japanese products! With products at every square inch, it’s so exciting to go into this little store and find new things every time. Service is also great! Be prepared for tight parking. Though there is always a spot!

They got poi! And great sashimi fish.

Nice hidden gem.

Great place to get Hawaiian snacks and Asian foods.

Would surely recommend trying this place. Great atmosphere, flavorful food, awesome service. Highly recommended.

Great Japanese market.

Great shop. I always enjoy going here, even if its just for a bag of rice.

Jam packed full of goodies. Take your time as you move through this little shop!

I love this store! It has everything I need to make all the food for oshogatsu (Japanese New Years). It saves me from having to drive into San Franciscos Japantown.

Best little store to buy real Japanese foods as well as other Asian food products that Japanese people like to eat. They have items there unavailable at the larger Asian stores such as Ranch 99. Help keep them in business. They are a blessing to the local population.

I am so happy that I discovered this place. Small shop with so much to offer. Very authentic.

Very cute little shop. I didnt know this little gem existed until 5 months into living in the area. Great selection of asian foods (including Hawaiian) as well as some dishes and cookware/utensils. Very friendly staff as well!

This is a gem of a store. Small but big in variety of products. I will definitely be back for more. Next time I will go for fish... it looked very fresh!

I feel like Im back in Japan when I step into this store: the smells, the size, etc. I get can many of the same items at a Korean grocer, but the prices here are much better. Ask about which days they make fresh sushi. Its not obvious, but theres a driveway that leads to parking in the back.

Great selection of Asian food, picked up some sauces and mayo.

Nice to have Japanese / Hawaiian Foods in one little store. Fresh POI flown in every Thursday.

I used to live in Japan, and I can always find those little treats I never thought I’d see again. The quality is good, and they always have some excellent sake.

Great little store to get what you need.

Ive been a customer for 40 years great place to shop for hard to find Asian and Pacific Island foods

The man at the register was very unfriendly and acted like he was mad that I came into the store. Will absolutely never go back. Worse place for customer service I have ever encountered.

Love this store!The owner is friendly and kind :)You can find a lot of Asian stuffs there especially Nihon no tabemono!

Sashimi-grade tuna here is so much better than what you can find anywhere else in Contra Costa County. So glad this place is around.

Concentration on Japanese cuisine. Lots of sushi ingredients.

Small, quaint, and a friendly owner. Been shopping here for a long time and have ever had a problem

I like the selection of amazing Japanese food they have, but the building inside is a little gross.

Go-to local store for Japanese food staples.....

Great marketplace for Japanese and haiwaian food and snacks. You can find really amazing treats here with great prices for Sashimi grade fish. Wonderful owners - support local!

Good place to shop if you like to cook

Lots of hard to find asian goods. The only down side is limited parking and a bit cluttered.

Great local resource for products that our local grocery stores dont carry.

Small but organized very well!Lots of authentic japanese food. me and my husband will definitely go there often in the future!

Never have I seen so much packed in a small space. This store has so many Asian items that even places like 99 Ranch doesnt have, not to mention the stand-byes. I went there for Thai basil and wound up getting around $55 worth of merchandise such as unagi sauce, wasabi, Tom Yum paste, macadamoa/acai pancale mix, etc. Glad to have found it!

They have a very nice selection of Asian foods. You can find some hard to find items like fresh poi from Hawaii.

Cool little shop with all my Hawaiian staples! Fresh Poi on Thursdays!

Great Japanese and other Pacific foods for reasonable prices. Owners are courteous and friendly!

I love this store hes only open for 6 days a week however you can get all the things you miss and love from Hawaii. Fresh Poi on Thursdays, Ahi & Aku Tuna, Kalua Pig, Lau lau, lomi lomi salmon, Crack Seed and all da kind good stuff like that.

We were looking for a very small rice cooker to travel with and they had just the perfect one!

Nice to have Japanese grocery store. Wish they had shimehi mashrooms..

Been coming here for years. Lots of items you cant get close by, you have to go to SF, Oakland or San Jose. Owner is friendly.

The best

The only place in the mtz/concord/wc area that sells fresh Kaffir Lime Leafs which is how I found it. So glad I did, even though its cramped, its clean and has a large variety of some of my childhood favorites. It reminded me of some of the stores in Hawaii without the humidity ;) They even had fresh Poi!

We came back to this place to buy Miso paste. Great place to buy Japanese products.

A nice little shop for some specialty items.

Small with decent sections of everything Asian you looking for

Awesome store. Lots of variety in the products.

Love this place!

Great selection for cooking Japanese foods

Any hard to find Japanese cooking ingredients can almost always be found here.

Too small inside and confused to collect the food .

Friendly owner

Small, mom-and-pop style market for authentic Japanese foods, snacks and groceries.

Small. No common Japanese ingredients here for making standard noodle dishes.
