This has been one of my favorite markets. The prices are reasonable and the staff is friendly. There’s a wide selection and they even have fresh kimbop at the register. There’s a wide selection of fish and vegetables that you wouldn’t find at an American market so it’s a nice change of pace. Plus there’s a Korean restaurant right next door!

Produce kinda sucks but this is perhaps the best Korean market in St. Louis.

This place has been around for a long time. It is managed by new owners but it still serves similar products and offers good prices. I enjoy coming here because I can always ask for help.

Asia Market has a great selection of Asian foods along with other ethnic varieties such as Mexican, Chinese, Japanese, and of course Korean! It is definitely worth a visit! I found my rice cooker and other trinkets for my house here and very reasonably priced. A few of my favorite things to get at Asia Market includes: their grandmother’s homemade side dishes(banchan), rice cakes, and kimbop. They have changed a lot since last owner and will be happy with your grocery shopping here! The fresh vegetables and fruits are a hit and the bulgolgi is delicious!!! Great selection of seadweed, tofu, dumplings, tea, noodles, and rice! This market is much cleaner, cheaper, and has more selection, than the few other Asian markets that St. Louis has to offer.

Not a bad Korean market for the Midwest. They have pretty much everything you’re looking for and the prices are decent(obviously more expensive than the larger cities, but not by much). I live in the CWE and make the trek here every so often and it’s completely worth it if I want to make Korean food at home. Their kimchi tends to be a little less fermented than I want so after I buy a jar, I unscrew the top a bit and let it rest in my sink(or on a plate) for 1 — 2 days.

Maybe it’s because I came from Chicago my expectations were a little higher but it was a bit dirty, most of the tofu was expires by a couple weeks(not just days) and it was expensive. Just make sure you check the dates before checking out.

I still like this place a lot — but be wary of their frozen section. They’re definitely not throwing out the old stuff. That could be said of just about every other Asian grocery store in the area with the exception of China Town Market.

Here’s a tip. Korean BBQ is quite easy to make with a simple recipe. All you need is the meat and the pre-made marinade which is quite damn good. The short rib cuts you can’t find at a normal store but you can buy them here at this asian store or any other asian store. I also recommend the korean chicken marinage if you grill chicken at a bbq. I’m telling you, if you marinade these two meats, then the next BYOB bbq you go to you will be the SUPERSTAR. anyhow, this store is a korean mecca. If you want korean ingredients, then its a 5 star store. However, they lack in other asian cultures for sure. The noodle section is very diverse. you can try all kinds of stuff. Mochi balls can also be found here with ice cream delights inside. While your at it, go to Hangook Korean restaurant next door.

Need Korean or other Asian supplies and groceries? This is the place to go. There is a wide selection of different Asian-ethnic foods ranging from noodles, rice, spices, drinks and even Japanese candies. If it’s Asian and you need it, they most likely have it. And on your way out, grab a traditional Korean sushi-like seaweed roll called«kim-baab» for like $ 2.50. I know; «seaweed roll» doesn’t sound so tasty, but trust me, it’s delicious! :) Also, if you’re into different juices, there is a grape drink called«Bön Bön,» which has real grape bits in it! It’s delicious! Go to Asia Market for all your Korean and Asian-ethnic food supply needs!

It’s a little Korean market with a decent selection of dry goods, some frozen items, and a small section of produce. Depending on the time you go, some of the produce can be a little old. It’s also wise to check the expiry dates on some goods, as some are past their expiry dates. I usually come to this store mainly to buy the dry goods since it’s the closest to where I live. Prices are in the moderate range.

they got everything but if you are white they will be rude to you. because Korean customers spend over $ 100 at each shopping and white people just buy 1 – 2 items. so be very careful with the mean ladies.

great little korean-owned market with good cuts of beef for bulgogi(and pork and kalbi are on offer as well, but I didn’t purchase those so cannot attest to their greatness). friendly folks working in the store, who help you locate what you need. korean video rentals and fun korean bric-à-brac available here as well. prices are reasonable, even on the imported snack yummies. produce section wasn’t enticing, however.
