This is definitely one of the gem grocery in USA. This store is almost exactly like any convenient store in Japan. Not only they sell usual fruit, veggies grocery items, they also have plenty of cooked food, desserts etc. Bento is particularly super nice if you are on budget. Their bento variety and flavors are exactly the same in Japanese convenience store, with just friction price than dine in at nearby restaurant. Their bento store in fridge, best to heat up little bit in microwave before enjoy it. One of the bento is exactly like the bullet train bento in Japan. Bento include savoury and sweet. The soya fried mochi is just so good. Eat it warm, and it is super soft and tasty. Full of flavor. Best dessert ever. Also recommend wheat water, contains no caffeine and it is a very common drink that serve in Japan. Very healthy drink. This store cabn paid via card and cash. Bag surcharge applied. Cutlery are included.

Literally the meanest grocery store I’ve been too. There’s this security guard walking around telling someone including myself don’t do this don’t do that. How any photos of inside the store (posted in reviews) were taken 100% illegally according to the guard! SMH!!! I guess the prices and stuff there is ok… hard to tell with the guard breathing down everyone’s necks. I mean I know you gotta job but dang… I was trying to take a pic of the cakes to see if someone who wasn’t with me wanted one… got yelled at so needless to say I bought zero at the store!!! But in little Tokyo spent way too much.

Variety of packaged foods, drinks, fresh produce, and other goods. No eating or drinking in here per the security guard, but allowed us to bring in our drinks as we browsed.

I love this place. The pre-packaged meals are tasty and good value. The green tea jelly with kinako cream is sooo good - not too sweet with real tea flavour. Onigiri is also affordable at 1.99 each. Not pictured here, but the mitarashi dango is so soft and tasty too. I really wish Nijiya Market existed in Canada!

The manager/supervisor here is super rude, disrespectful, and condescending. My partner and I live in Little Tokyo and would come here all the time and know the regular workers like Mona (she's the sweetest!), so it's very disappointing to have such a rude and nasty person who's in charge ruin the experience. Never coming back again but will miss the nice regular workers. The products are pretty overpriced compared to other stores anyway! The bentos are also mid compared to Marukai, so I'll just walk a little further to get those ones from now on.
