We went looking specifically for fresh quail and duck eggs, and we found both and much more! This is a huge market, with frozen foods, fresh (live) fish, produce, bakery, cooked food (duck), sweets, candy and staples.
Accessible ♿️. People are very kind and helpful. There are big, clean bathrooms. Huge parking lot.
I had a great experience at the Asian Food Market today! They offer a wide variety of fresh produce and an impressive selection of delicious food. However, what truly sets this market apart is their outstanding customer service. One staff member in particular, who manages the lunch box area, went above and beyond to make my visit exceptional. She was not only very friendly and attentive but genuinely cared about the customers. When seeing long checkout lines due to the busy day, she stepped in to help customers with checkout—something that goes beyond her usual duties. It was clear that she values customer satisfaction and is willing to go the extra mile to provide excellent service. Highly recommend visiting this market for both the food and the great service!
Such an amazing store w such a wide variety of items. From baked goods , to every vegetable and fruit imaginable to cooking utensils. They have a wide variety of tea and coffee and many other items . The store was very clean and the workers were very friendly. ☯️
This is the largest Asian food store within 30 miles of me and I come up there for unique items for wok cooking or doing homemade curry and especially freshwater eel, which is frozen in the sauce and absolutely delicious if you’re into making your own sushi.
Sadly, much of this store carries Americanized versions of their products, I assume to try to get a larger community of people in the store. Finding various Asian country food written in native languages is harder every day as products are not, as varied as a decade to go in the same store.
There’s lots of boxes in the aisles and the Layout of the store is confusing, although it’s quite large and if you’re looking for basic items to make a dinner that you watched on YouTube or somewhere that store will likely have what you need. But there are many better places, and many cleaner places too.
They also have ducks and chickens hanging in a small corner of the store and currently in November 2023 they are going $35 for a duck cut up and packaged. The duck is excellent cooked beautifully, but the section of the store has changed over the years and they’ve made it smaller and smaller , with less products, both cooked in store and throughout the supermarket. The fresh live seafood section is gone although fresh meats and frozen food makes up for it.
It gets a three because the store shouldn’t have the feeling of a smaller big box store, prices are not cheaper and you have an Aldi’s experience.
A local chain Asian food market with a good selection of items to fulfill my needs. Although it may not be as big as the others in the Edison area, this place has an in-house bakery and ready-made food department. My favorite from the ready-made section is the steamed buns with pork and vegetables, yum!
Oh yah, this place is nice. I'm not sure why but lately the produce looks bad everywhere else. The produce at the Asian Food Market all looked lovely, as well as the meat counter and fish dept. This place is pretty big and I was able to find everything I needed. Well definitely be going back for more groceries soon.
Basically the only real Asian supermarket in Monmouth county but it is pretty good. The prices are on par with the supermarkets in Edison but maybe slightly higher. The bakery here is better than the Edison supermarkets.
My quest for better homemade ramen led me to Asian Food Market in Marlboro. After finding Ramen_Lord's free ebook, The Book of Ramen, I was inspired to create my own ramen instead of settling for local, expensive options.
I initially tried online shopping for the ingredients, but found them to be quite pricey. That's when I learned about the Asian Food Market, a half hour drive from my home. I decided to give it a shot, and I'm glad I did.
The store was a manageable size and filled with a variety of goods - from dry and fresh produce to chilled items I'd never seen before. I spent about an hour going through the store, getting used to the unfamiliar packaging and different languages.
I was able to find everything I needed for my ramen, and a few extra items too. When I checked out, I was pleasantly surprised to find the total cost was half of my earlier online estimates.
The trip to Asian Food Market in Marlboro was well worth it. It's now my preferred place to shop for my cooking experiments, and I'll definitely be back when I need more ingredients. It's a cost-effective and interesting place to shop.
