Our Guestbook
“ This Overland Park Asian Grocery store is better than Walmart. Be a promotor of small family businesses. This is how China gets ahead. All the little tent stores in Seoul, Korea; where I once lived. ”
“ After visiting Japan, we wanted to recreate some of the food we had there. This was the only place in town where we could find the ingredients. We have been back many times since. We are happy to have found this spot. If you are tired of the usual grocery stores, it's a fun place to stop and just look around. ”
“ Starting to love this store as I keep visiting it more frequently. I love the Korean and Japanese selections. You can buy freshly made pancakes, banchan, fish balls, sliced meat, and fresh gimbap. I love their fresh selection of produces too, it's more decent in price and quality then the big Asian Supermarkets. I would recommend to come here on a weekday vs weekend. It's get jam packed here quite often during busy hours. However, if you just know what you want, it's easy to get in and out. The store is bigger than it looks on the outside. Great supermarket alternative to HMart since we don't have one here in KC. ”
“ I really love this grocery store. I've visited a few in the area and this is the one I keep going back to. I love the selection of Korean ingredients. You can buy freshly made banchan, sliced meat for grilling or hot pot, and there's a lady that makes kimbap on site. What I love the most is the selection of fresh groceries at the best price point compared to other big Asian groceries. If you love mushrooms, come here.. there is a wide variety for you to choose from. They are lacking in some key Vietnamese brands that I normally use but I don't really mind. There are some alternatives they offer that work just fine. This place is sort of a maze and tight to maneuver around. I recommend going on a weekday at any time. I went on a weekend once and it was a zoo! So packed. ”
“ This is the closest supermarket that offers all the food items I am looking for. They have a lot of authentic and imported goods. Items are fairly fresh. They offer a lot of variety and the market is well organized. I know exactly where to find the items and it is a fairly clean market. I would definitely check it out if you are looking to explore different types of ingredients ”
“ Great supermarket! There are a lot of good options from veggies to noodles. They make fresh gimbap/Kimbap. Great service. ”
“ This is my favorite Asian grocery store in Kansas and love visiting here. The store has a huge selection considering how small it is and usually has my favorite Korean pancakes - which I did not see any last time I visited. The prices are very reasonable and they have a discount/rewards card you can get. The staff is always efficient and usually pretty friendly. I like this store a lot too because you can sometimes get fresh-ish bakery items too. They usually get new stuff in frequently and it is not just the same ole stuff every time you go. Love this store! ”
“ I heard about this Asian market from a friend (she transplanted from Japan to Kansas over a decade ago and has been a font of information on great Asian restaurants and stores). Anyway, she told me about Oriental Market Place. Originally it focused on Korean and Japanese items, it was bought out recently and has apparently expanded. Still, when I went in. I saw a lot of Japanese items. They also had a freezer section for frozen meats (Kalbi-style cut short ribs, oxtail, fish, pork, etc). There was mochi. There was a woman making sushi that smelled like home, so I bought a roll. They have a small selection of produce, a lot of canned and packaged things. They even have a back section with some small cooking appliances and dishes that reminded me of Shirokiya (Japanese store in Hawaii) in the old days. They didn't have the long squash I was looking for but overall the selection was great and the market seemed organized and well tended. The cashier was very nice too. One important note, if you decide to check this place out. Save your sanity, park in the lot along Metcalf on the opposite side of the complex and walk. That side was mostly empty. The parking right in front of the market crowded and tight. The way into a row is the same way out. Stalls go right up to the border of the property and people don't look before driving. ”
“ Again, I don't need to repeat but don't expect Assi-Mart, H-Mart, or 99 Ranch. Instead this little grocery has jammed packed appliances, tea pots, and sushi ware which seemed to be alot nicer over the 888 Supermarket's Daiso quality dishes and cups. I found some cute zebra scissors that I got for my son along side with alligator comb. There were some other things like sink strainer that I can never find except rare occasion at Home Goods. ”
