Hing Lung Asian Food Center

Don’t buy their frozen food. I bought their 小笼包， soup dumplings. 2/3 are out of shapes or stuck together. My guess is they were thawed during transportation and refrozen. They are not fit to eat. They refused to refund. Will never go back again. The store is messy and dirty as well. I usually bought veggies over there on my way to gym. Won’t do it anymore. Cheap food costs!!! I threw away $5 something.

Asian Food Center is one of the oldest Chinese markets in Sacramento. I think almost no Chinese in sacrament have never shopped here for their wide range of Chinese groceries. The store is big, not like supermarket size. But big enough to carry most of the items for the Chinese kitchen. The meats and vegetables here are fresh. I love their Chinese BBQ. The roasted duck, roasted pork, and BBQ pork are my favorites. The cashiers are fast and accurate. I hardly found any errors on my bills. But the store is cash only. No credit card! This is a little inconvenient!

Great prices, good produce. It gets very busy and a bit claustrophobic during those times, but worth it.

Decent experience ... nothing is in English ... that was expected. I don't speak Chinese but knew what I came for and believe folks there would help.

Excellent prices on fresh meat and seafood. The best baked BBQ Pork Baos in Sacramento. Communication is pretty easy when it comes to food, even with little English being spoken. The staff is old school and quiet so many people mistake this for being rude or conceited but it's really not. The folks there are respectful and kind. If you need help it will come! I've never felt unwelcome or uncomfortable here! They carry live fish and crustaceans, the pork butt is gorgeous. I made char siu with it and it was better than all the others I've tasted in Sacramento. They have hot foods at nice prices. You can find cookware, frozen Asian convenience foods/snacks like Siu Mai, dumplings, and Baos. There are sauces/spices/marinades of all kinds, most of which are not carried by major grocers or even advertised and unless you're familiar with Asian foods, you'd be suprised to see them. They have a small but power packed produce section with real pricing. Fancy stores can sell exotic Asian pears for 4.99 a pound while AFC prices them around 1.99 a pound. The produce always looks fresh and shows that they move what they bring in. Try the store out and you'll find something life changing!

Hm ... of course you get in this store a lot of Asian stuff. But ... nowadays - so my experience - a shopping tour should be something special. The "shopping war" goes on ... a lot of stores, everywhere the same things to get and mostly people don't have in mind to visit a store only because the cheap price. There is more a store has to offer ... and it is about the feel good mood of their costumers. This Asian store is dirty ... not to say filthy. Not all their stuff is signed in English language. I don't want and I don't have the time to learn the Chinese language. And I am used to have attention by the check out employee. A "no sight" check out works ... but it is anything than a welcomed feeling. These guys have a lot to do to pimp their store ... sad but true.

The rotisserie items were delicious. Customers were careless of social distancing.
