First Korean Market

Fresh prepared foods, packaged goods, and frozen/refrigerated items are available from this small business. Their japchae and beef kimbap are really good and everything is reasonably priced. I highly recommend this store.

Very reasonable prices and cozy interior. Easy to find everything you need. The prepared food is what my friends and I came here for. Pretty convenient! They have a great variety of banchan (side dishes) and kimbap! I recommend the beef kimbap. 0.7 lbs of kimbap (2 rolls) for $7.99 is not bad. The mackeral is also fried well and delicious. The kimari was decent. Since it was sitting out, it wasn't very crunchy. My only complaint is that there's no utensils for the prepared food! We went to eat our food at a park nearby and ended up having to use our hands for everything.

Awesome premade food near the cash register — I love the beef kimbap and kimchi fried rice. They also have shrimp tempura, veg pancakes, and fried chicken.

Visited to grab the kimbap for lunch. $9 for two small rolls. Nothing special, on the bland side because it's missing sesame oil and sesame seeds. But I was so shocked that another Korean grocery store in Japantown charges literally half the price! 😭 It was tastier, 1 big roll instead of 2 small ones, so the food quantity is harder to compare. The shop is on the smaller side, selling tons of banchan, pantry staples, drinks, and snacks. Not busy on a weekday afternoon. They take card and cash. Easy to grab parking on the street in front of the store.

Great little market with Korean staples to include fresh Kimbap, Nappa /cucumber kimchi (both lack salt), seaweed salad plus other fresh items that look great. Also available are a variety of ramen and some frozen foods/imports. I’ll definitely be back. Note: no soy sauce or ginger available here to go with the Kimpab chopsticks are though.

Rude service but their fresh homemade kimchi is a 20 out of 10. Favorite place to get kimchi and they have a lot of other good asian snacks too.

Has what you need but do wish they had a better kimchi brand like twin brothers. What they did have is great and their fresh made items are awesome and convenient. It functions just like a convenience store would in Korea and is one of the few good, but small korean markets in the neighborhood
