Overpriced groceries. Aside from that, they have the best halo halo in the area. We tried other local places and this by far was the most authentic well assembled treat.

Clean, well stocked. Take out perfect for those who crave Filipino food but don't cook it. Parking adequate. Organized check out lane.

She's cool, the place is cool, also nice to get some variety up here. More options would be nice in the future like dumplings, potstickers, frozen croissants, etc. overall it's great.

Overpriced $22 - 29 ounces beef caldereta. It tastes alright, like home cooking, but nothing special about it. It's sold in containers already cuz it was almost at the end of the day. Just took a chance and hoping there's enough meat and not mostly sauce. Pretty good amount but not $22 worth.

They have the necessary ingredients I would need for a Filipino dish that I can't find in a grocery store. You can also grab a bit to eat there as well.

Lots and lots of great things! Reasonably priced. Lots of fresh fish and a whole ready to eat counter. Very crowded, parking lot is not made to handle the traffic.

This is a great place to pick up Asian/Chinese ingredients when in a pinch. BUT, if you want things like wood ear and snow fungus/mooncakes/rice dumplings and other special ingredients and items for Chinese specific holidays... those will be difficult to find here. They do have all the basic ingredients you can find though... sauces, noodles, desserts galore!! They even have an assortment of rice flours!! I love their snack selections and canned fruit. A plus:: red envelopes and lucky candy were readily available! Service is great! When I couldn't find anything, the staff was very helpful! Ambiance was nice. Very clean store and the bathrooms were also incredibly clean!

You will find your basic Asian household staples here. I typically shop at KPInternational, but came here to avoid the 30 minute trip. I was in need of gochugaru and was able to find it here. The fresh vegetable section is small, but there are plenty of aisles with kimchi, alcohol, spices, ramen, snacks etc. I think there was even a section where you could order food though I can't quite recall. The store was clean and easy to navigate. This store is small, but carries miscellaneous cooking and pantry staples.

This Filipino market has grown through the 10+ years of its existence. It started as a market selling Filipino grocery items, then evolved by adding a kitchen vending "turo-turo" viands from renowned Pinoy cuisine like lechon kawali and lumpiang shanghai to the lesser known dishes like ginataang langka (unripe jackfruit in coconut stew) and mechadong baka (beef stew). Still a convenient place to buy ingredients for Filipino recipes but remains pricey with staples like vegetables and rice.

It's a very small store. Got what I needed and left. All prints area are far from my place so I rarely go to an oriental market.
The grocery is well stacked and organized. Loved the selection of goods. Just had lunch at the turo-turo food section today. Food is tasty for the Filipino taste buds. Service is a thumb 1/2. No ambience, but it's clean and decent.

Great market that is primarily Filipino food/items. You will be able to find most items that you need to make filipino dishes. The food made there is subpar and didn't really taste like the dishes from the Philippines. I bought 5 different items in their cafeteria area, and though marketed to be the actual dish like dinuguan - it tasted nothing like it. That is the only con, otherwise it is a great market.

This place is awesome. Has just about everything you could imagine, and great prices. SO glad I found this place.

Nicely stocked for such a small place. I was pleasantly surprised with the selection of some of our favorite Asian food staples.

Yes, as an island boy, I always try to stop by The Oriental Market when I can. There is just so much to choose from. My choice if precise is always the Manapua (Pork Bun). The are very big, yummy and hit the spot. Okay, I'll admit that there are not the kind we used to get at the truck at Sandy Beach (Sandy's) on Oahu back in the 70s, but these are definitely better the ones at my local L&L Hawaiian Barbecue. Obviously, they do run out, which is a bummer, so try and get there early. The store is always crowded, which is obvious. My only puzzling issue is they don't have Guava: fresh, frozen, or otherwise. That being said, if you're looking for some yummy food, snacks, ingredients, stop by here.
