Joong Boo Market

The produce here is very fresh and they have sales on staple items often. It can get very busy at times and the parking lot can be an issue. The homegoods section has a couple character Keychains and plush toys.

Subject: Major Health Hazard – Avoid the Seafood Counter I’m beyond disappointed. I came in specifically for the stone crab claws, but what I received was straight-up dangerous. The moment I opened the bag at home, I was hit with an absolutely foul, overpowering stench. It didn't just smell "fishy"—it smelled like literal sewage. I’ve handled enough seafood to know when something is off, and this smelled like a one-way ticket to the HOSPITAL! It’s honestly alarming that the staff would even wrap this up and sell it. I didn’t dare take a single bite because I value my health. If you’re looking for fresh seafood, do yourself a favor and go somewhere else where they actually monitor their inventory. Total waste of money and a massive health concern. NOW ALL OF THE SEAFOOD I GOT FROM THIS STORE WILL GO STRAIGHT TO THE TRASH!!! If i could just give a NEGATIVE STAR I WILL!!!

I really liked this place! They have so many more items in the store than Hmart does! I was impressed with the diverse selections and freah seafood. We were looking for the café to eat food ans one of the workers saw us ans kindly directed us to go out then around ans upstairs to find the cafeteria. When we got upstairs I ordered the Pork kimchi stew. It came with kimchi and radish as well as beans, rice and potatoes salad. The kimchi stew was so good and not too spicy, the rice was cooked perfectly and the potato salad was also delicious which was surprising because I never go for the potato salad. My Pork Kimchi stew only had one piece or pork in it which was disappointing, I kind of felt like they didnt give me a lot because im not Korean.. :/ but I'm very well versed in korean cuisine.. maybe next time ill ask for extra. The seating area was so large with plenty of seating, napkins and complimentary cups of water. Over all I will be back, I absolutely love the store and regardless of the service, service doesn't matter when the food is authentic and delicious!

A godsend for those who want a Korean meal at reasonable prices, menu filled with a variety of dishes to choose from (not all dishes are available, didn't have 감자탕 ready so chose 육개장 instead). Also has dumpling shop next to cafeteria, which are also pretty good.

Really great Korean market. Lots of options and good prices. Produce is really fresh. There's a cafe upstairs where you can get a bite to eat before shopping.

The grocery shop itself is good but the food court above is a whole different level. I absolutely love the spicy seafood and soft tofu soup from the main cafe. The kimchi they have is also really good. I love that they change their side dishes daily so you will always try a new combination. The spicy shrimp rolls from the cafe adjacent was also some of the best I have ever had. I go here very regularly and I always get my food piping hot and in a timely manner.

If coming on a weekend expect a long line at the restaurant upstairs. Worth the wait as everything was fresh and authentic. Great prices, cant be beat.
