Asian Market

Very small store, but they have a pretty good selection of items. Their boba drinks are very good as is their food. A Banh mi for $ 4.50? Yes please! The only thing I don’t like is that they use regular mayo on the sandwiches not Vietnamese mayo. The owners are incredibly friendly and always suggest any new products they have!

Best banh mi in Palm Harbor, hands down. I’ve only had the chicken, but the flavor is amazing. I have trouble slowing down and actually eating like a civilized human, it’s that good.
The lady is super nice, just give her a call before you head over and she’ll start your order. If you don’t know what you want, just stop by. It only takes a few mins and worth the wait.

Small little store, but with everything you may need in a pinch to get your own asian cooking going. This place is probably the closest store to me that carries bittermelon and japanese eggplant so yay to that. Their produce section isnt very big, but they have all the essentials.
Of course we had to try a food item and got the chicken banh mi. She mentioned it may take a little, which was fine. 15 mins later we had a nice fresh chicken banh mi that tasted pretty great. The bf is already plotting his work lunches there since he works not even 5 mins from the store.
Give them a try, theyre not as big as all the stores in Tampa but they are conveniently located with plenty to get by. The lady in the shop is very friendly as well.

This place has just about everything you would need to make Asian food. In fact if they don’t have it I would be amazed!

I was looking for a Boba spot near Palm Harbor, something different than the Green Mint. Found it here. I ordered a Watermelon Boba which I loved. While they were making it, I walked around the store. I found some sweet Asian treats, Filipino seasonings, some Asian skin care stuff, and tons of sauces and noodles.
What attracted me also to this place was pics of Filipino food. It turns out, you can call and order food, but they don’t have any ready made. You can purchase some food items like Vietnamese banh mis and fresh rolls. They get those from elsewhere I am pretty.
Nice small place to go if you need these items in a flash.

This Market is great. I found them extremely helpful. I don’t know much about preparing asian cuisine, but I had a list I made from researching online… they helped me find everything, they offered advice. I even had a sandwich and it was pretty good.
Thanks for all the help, I’ll be back in soon.

I finally checked out this Asian market. It’s a cute little grocery store with lots of Asian delights. They have kimchi which is awesome. They also have a little food court with 2 tables where you can get phở, summer rolls, and bubble tea. The owner is a sweet woman who runs it. It’s worth checking out

I know what Filipino food, Boba, and other Asian dishes taste like… the food here is AMAZING!
You ever have those lunches or dinners and felt like it was made with low quality?
Not this store. Literally tastes like grandmas homemade cooking.

THE BEST Ban Mi and noodle soups you could ever have. My husband and I love to eat here. The pork is so sweet, tender and moist! The taro smoothie is wonderful. the only issue is placing an order, the cook seems to not be in until 3pm. We have called to order lunch the past two days in a row. If you can wait tip after 3pm you are in for the BEST treat ever! This place blows away Phở Queen and Green Mint in taste BY FAR!!! The store is tiny but the food is the very best!
PLEASE HAVE THE COOK THERE BEFORE 3pm, we miss you!

Had take out lunch of Phở with beef and meatballs, and summer rolls. Iced Bubble (Boba) Coffee was very nice but I agree on the texture of the tapioca. Tasted Chocolate Mint Iced Bubble Tea.delicious. As the lady made the order fresh, it did take a while. Explored the grocery shelves and will definitely remember to shop here for my Asian recipe needs! Also found multipacks of good quality chopsticks at low prices. I’ll return to try their sandwiches for sure!

I live fairly close, and thought it was the only way to get Boba. The tapioca balls were not made correctly and even the Vietnamese Banh Mi were not that great. I have not tried the other food, but it won’t be some place I’d return to. Not recommended.

Stopped by to check this new place out. Had the Chicken and beef curry. Very good. Wasnt a fan of the egg rolls but overall was a good experience.

Good boba (if any at all) is hard to find in this area of town and it is GREAT here. Honeydew is freaking good and the boba balls are made with the right consistency. They have a number of flavors and the shop seems to be owned by a humble owner. The Asian snacks are fairly prices and best of all, they have RAMUNE Japanese soda, which made me jump and down around this oriental market. My favorite soda on Earth and plenty of Asian food.
One day I would like to try their Banh Mi Vietnamese subs and cooked dishes as well. Many thanks to Unilocalers for listing this business and writing about it.

This is pretty dang good. Mainly, I like their banh mi. So tasty and filling and not to mention, cheap. The owner is very nice as well.

I only come here once a while to enjoy a bowl of Phở. Every time I am at the shop, I find customers whom just like me, waiting for a quick bite of something home made.
It is really a tiny place combined 4 tables and dozen grocery shelves. You have choice of starters, sandwich, Phở and noodles. Lady who runs the place is the cook and cashier. So, you need to be patient for your food. She usually very busy.
Phở soup base is on the light side. Personally, I think it should be added to more flavor. Beef slices are tender and good taste. Well balanced of soup, noodle, vege and meat combination. $ 7.95 a bowl.
I may pick few grocery items while I am there but not too much since the selection is limited and price are on the higher side.
Still, it is a good place to get a simple Phở soup in North Pinellas. We don’t have lot of choices here for Vietnamese food.

Asian Market and Eatery is a mix between a café and a convenience store, but with a much cleaner feel. The woman who owns the shop is incredibly helpful and talkative, something I’ve found rare in many small shops such as this one.
In terms of products, they have it all. What they don’t have they will order for you, but most anything you could want is already there.
As for the café part, it’s ok. The phở isn’t flavorful, but it’s also not bad by any means. The Pork Sandwich however was fantastic as were the Fried Rolls. Knowing this place is so cheap and so close by means I’ll be making many return trips.

Gotta love Unilocal.You wake up with a hankerin’ for phở, but don’t want to drive 30 minutes to your favorite place. A quick Unilocal search says «Hey, there’s a Vietnamese place 5 minutes away, why haven’t you been going there all these years, Noodle Boy?»
Asian Market is in a narrow storefront maybe 15 – 20′ wide in a plaza right on Hwy 19 N, with 20 seats arranged at the front, and grocery items running down the left wall the entire depth of the building. But what Asian Market lacks in space, it makes up for in a fairly solid selection of Asian grocery items, a condensed menu of Asian dishes made –to-​order, super friendly staff, and spotlessly clean interior.
Since there’s no website for a menu, here you go: App rolls include veggie/​spring/​summer/​grilled pork or chicken/​edamame and beef dumplings. They have 5 salads (house, cucumber, squid, seaweed, baby octopus), and both phở and udom soups (soups are ~$ 7). Their 3 sandwiches include the popular banh mi, grilled pork/​chicken for ~$ 5 – 6. Vermicelli (thin rice noodles known as «bún» in Vietnamese cuisine) can be had in 5 styles (spring rolls, grilled pork/​chcken/​shrimp and fried tofu) along with carrots, lettuce, bean sprouts, cucumbers, fresh herbs, crushed peanuts, and fried shallots with a special house sauce (~$ 7). And you can wash all of that down with one of their bubble teas ($ 4), which are popular all over Asia. Asian market has them in a variety of 18 different tea/​coffee/​fruit flavors, available in temps from hot to ice/​slushy. They also have a cooler of canned/​bottled drinks/​water.
But I came for the phở, and after the smiling young lady took my order at the counter, I entertained myself by checking out the long row of shelves with Asian goodies on them. Every few months I usually drive over the bay to Oceanic Market in Tampa for my Asian groceries as they have a huge selection. But I’m sure I’ll be saving a lot of time by hitting Asian market for the basics and their surprisingly healthy amount of sauces and condiments. I’d estimate Asian Market has about 75 lateral shelf feet just of sauces/​condiments, which includes about every kind I’ve ever gone to Oceanic for.
After taking a good 10 minutes just to read the rows and rows of sauce/​condiment labels, I knew it was a good sign they were making my phở fresh-​to-​order. After a few more minutes the young lady delivered it to my table, and my nose picked up the aromatics of fresh herbs and spices in the huge bowl from 5 feet away, and it smelled great. This phở had a well seasoned beef broth filled with rice noodles, a few shallots, a healthy amount of green onions and other greens, thin slices of well-​done beef and some small slices/​chunks from something in links I never quite identified… I could have done without that addition as I found the chunks bland with very little flavor or mouth feel. On the side was a small plate with thin slices of chili peppers and a lime wedge. The phở flavors were balanced and well-​rounded, with the herbs carrying the heavy lifting. After tossing in a few chili pepper slices and some sriracha to add some heat, it was quite good for my tastes. Considering the big bowl could have fed two people, it was a good value as well.
Considering this phở is being served up in a humble grocery store and not a full-​fledged restaurant, I thought it was a good example of the magic blend all of phở’s ingredients. Add that it’s so convenient to me, and I’m glad Unilocal led me to this find. I’ll definitely be trying out some bun/​vermicelli on my next trip.

Update 9÷26÷12:
Stopped by today for some cool summer rolls on a warm afternoon… delicious! Shrimp, noodles, carrots, cucumbers and lettuce with a delicious peanut sauce (see pic).

I like Asian food period. This is good food here at Asian Market. Plain and simple. And best of all you do not have to deal with being at a restaurant. My wife and I come here to buy groceries and sundries. And at the same time we get a fantastic just then made summer roll with an extra fancy hand made dip. And then we finish with a deliciously flavorful Phở soup! Asian Market is what it is and they do not try to be anything more. Plenty of smiles are also served free of charge.

Okay so this grocery is located in the plaza right next to Outback on US-​19.
They are an Asian Market, but they also have a few tables inside and they serve summer rolls, phở, banh mi, bun thit, and some other things. It’s not bad if you want to grab something quick and don’t want to drive to Phở Quyen. I tried the Phở and it wasn’t super flavorful, and the pork in my bun wasn’t glazed like Phở Quyen makes it. But like I said if I want vietnamese and don’t want to drive, I guess this will do.
While you’re there, you can also get some light grocery shopping out of the way. They are not very large, so don’t expect a ton of variety, but the grocery section has the basics.
