Maruichi Japanese Food & Deli Stamford

First time there today. Very clean, great options, fresh food, nice people. The snacks and food I got were delicious! And the girl who checked me out was very friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be back

Good customer service: helpful and friendly. The sushi is reasonably priced and tastes good; the rice is nice and crisp. My fav is California rolls; always go there for that. I have gotten the tuna and the spicy tuna at different times for somebody else and he enjoyed it. I like to get their pickled ginger from the refrigerated area (it's a lot of ginger and delicious); not the pink version. The sushi rice I bought; haven't cooked it yet. I did try a frozen breaded chicken (?); wouldn't recommend it—bland and suspicious. Bottled Jalanese water (☢️: who knows?); nope, bought it back unopened.

I used to going to a bigger japanese supermarket in nj with a food court but i love this place! The fried chicken is really good and so was the bubble tea. They have good sushi rolls sometimes too(tuna).staff are cool owner is too! Its very clean compared to mitsuwa.

I have been shopping there for a while and spend $100-200 when I stay on weekend , a week ago , a miso kit was opened when I brought home, naturally, I did not want to give my children and brought back today with a recipe. The store and manager refused to exchange or give me $8.00 store credits to spend additional $100 on today’s purchase, my gas money is more than $8.00 and plus my weekly shopping . They kept saying there is no return.. this is just one of bad management skill and not supporting local customers. It’s very disappointing and now they lost a weekly customer When there is quality issue from your products , it’s the store responsibility to make it right for the customer . It’s a very unfortunate situation.

Maruichi is a Japanese grocery store located across the street from ShopRite and Stop&Shop. It’s a little bigger than Daido in White Plains, NY, but much smaller than Mitsuwa Marketplace Edgewater, NJ. They have a pretty extensive dry goods and frozen food sections, and prices are reasonable as well. The meat and produce sections are a bit on the small side, but you can always jut go across the street to the two big supermarkets if you need something. There is also a small café (outdoor seating only) and a variety of home and beauty goods on the small second floor loft area. It’s very similar to Daido, but if I were to compare the two, I think that at Maruichi, the prepared foods are more interesting and higher quality. Overall, they carry a more extensive range of almost all items as well. They also carry a small selection of artisanal food items (e.g. nodoguro and flying fish dashi packets, tsukudani, etc) that you won’t find at Daido. I also think that in general, the prices are better at Maruichi. The produce sections are about the same. At Daido, I think the fresh seafood/meat section and their sushi (prepared next door by Sushi Tatsu) is better. Also, given that Daido has an outpost of Parisienne Bakery located in the store, the baked goods tend to be more varied and better there as well. Regardless, Maruichi is a very nice, well-priced store that is well worth the stop if you are looking for Japanese food products.

Lovely market with a lot of variety despite the smallish location. They have a cafe and restaurant which was closed first thing when I was here but there was still some premade sandwiches that were delicious. Look forward to coming back and seeing the selection at the cafe when it's open! Update: the cafe is phenomenal with a great selection of drinks and snacks. Truly a must visit to anyone who enjoys Japanese food in the area!

This mid-sized market really packs a punch in terms of a wide variety of fresh, packaged, frozen, and hot Japanese foods. Have been here twice now and understandably the prices are a bit higher to have the convenience in Stamford but the quality is good. Very much enjoyed the bubble tea, made with discernibly quality tea and boba. Also picked up some nato on sale which was a tasty treat, as were the o nigiri triangles (all around $2). Will definitely be back to pick up odds and ends, and special treats. Very curious about the togo ramen broth by Brooklyn Ramen, hmmm....
