If you need any Japanese cooking items or snacks in a pinch, this may well work. The selection is limited. The store is clean and the service is friendly. Prices are on the high side, but for the convenience it is well worth. Located in a dilapidated shopping centre near International drive, we were able to find the ingredients we needed in a pinch.
The selection here is small, where it lacks many of the things that would easily make it one of the best Japanese markets in Orlando. Most of this has a lot to do with the amount of space, but more can still be added. This aside, this place has a lot of things that can be difficult to find. It had everything I needed to make my dinner that night. The owner was the only one in the store, and she was friendly and helpful.
Really enjoyed our visit! The lady working there was super friendly. The place was small but really clean and the only place in Orlando I think that carries natto.
My friend and I wanted to make okonomiyaki and they had what we needed. The lady working there was very kind and helpful! Aside from the okonomiyaki stuff they had a lot of my favorites like natto! Thanks again!
Very rude and unpleasant owner. I drove across the state for about two and a half hours to stop at this store with Chinese friends of mine to purchase some Japanese snacks, where once they spoke Chinese in the store, they were glared at the entire time by the owner of the store at the register. Once we rang up our items, he very aggressively stated that no purchases under 20 are to be made with a card payment. Once we were scrambling change, he very rudely grabbed our items from us, as if he expected us to steal. Very unpleasant first experience. Recently, I returned to the store to give it a second chance, and to purchase a very common Japanese snack. Once asked if they had any, the same man at the register very aggressively replied "No, not at all." The store shelves were almost completely empty, and most basic products were completely absent from the store. I am never returning here.
Wish there were 0 stars because that's what they deserve. Rude, children not welcomed in the store, shadowing customers like if people went there to steal. 1sr and LAST visit. I have been to many oriental markets & this is the 1st time we were treated so horribly. We'll NEVER EVER COME BACK AND WILL TELL EVERYONE TO STAY AWAY FROM THIS HORRIBLE STORE.
The woman at the cash register was very rude to us. We were looking at canned drinks in the refrigerated section, and she actually scolded us for keeping the door open too long. All we did was look at the label to make sure the drink we wanted didn't have artificial ingredients. That 3 seconds was apparently too long. We came to the shop out of respect and love for Japanese culture, and we were shocked that the woman (owner?) seemed to prefer that we not shop there. The stock is very limited, so it's difficult to imagine what she's so high-and-mighty about. Funny enough, there's a Japanese tv series called "Nietzsche in the Convenience Store," about very rude shop employees who disrespect the paying customers. Apparently this is an issue with modern Japanese people. :-(
