Reviews
Kim's International Market is diagonally across a Tire World, with some limited parking available right in front. You can get a shopping cart right in front of the store before coming in if you need one (or you can also grab a small hand basket inside if you prefer). My husband and I stopped by this market yesterday evening, around 5:50 pm. I wanted to see if there was any banchan and other random snacks for our trip. And although this is a small market, there was a fair selection of banchan that I ended up purchasing (japchae, the glass noodle stir fry) and stir fry fish cakes (one of my favorite banchan). I also purchased a few sheet masks since they were only $0.99 (prior to tax) but kind of in a hidden area that I think others may overlook when they browse this small mom and pop store. My husband picked out a few canned drinks and I also ended up purchasing some seaweed flavored snacks. The prices in general, seem to be a little bit more expensive than the prices back home in Los Angeles at my local Korean markets, but that is to be expected. The selection for most items is actually pretty good, considering that this is a small market. But I think overall, it fits the need of most items that you may be looking for at a Korean market (there are also items that are Chinese and few Japanese items here as well, for those interested). After paying for our items, the employee (whom I suspect is one of the owners), was so nice and thanked me for shopping at the store. I enjoyed our visit and would come back if I lived in this area.
Never ending. Just wow. Kim's Market is just amazing. This little marked has a warm ambiance. Today I picked up a daikon radish, sesame seed oils and bulgogi sauce today to prepare some home made Korean food. If you are not familiar how to prepare they have so many banchan options to choose from to sample at reasonable prices. They topically have "kimbop" (Korean sushi) made fresh daily around 11am. They have meats, soups, ramen, fresh and frozen produce, yakimandu, the list goes on. Glad they are a short drive from my home. Fast friendly service.
My husband and I love Kim's International Market! It is quickly becoming a weekly visit. The owners are kind and the store is well stocked and clean. The food is amazing. Trying new things weekly.
This place was a lot better than I anticipated, the people there were nice and it was not loud in there at all. There was no music just sounds of people enjoying this wonderful Japanese/Korean Market. For a market on the smaller side it had a lot of more rare Japanese food like chazuke (茶漬け), Oden supplies (おでん), and henpen fish cake (はんぺん) and so on so forth. I won't have to take a 3hr drive now to prepare for Osechi Ryori (おせち料理)。I will definitely be back!! (*´`*)(thank you ( ありがとう）(감사합니다)
a lovely asian market. the man working was kind and helpful, selection was large for the size of the store (I have never seen so many ramen options) and the store was clean. the store was busy and it seems popular. I will be back!
