H Mart Torrance

Love this store! There are plenty of fresh veggie options, a great seafood and sashimi selection, and all kinds of meat to choose from. The instant noodle aisle is amazing—so many varieties! The staff are super friendly and even offered help before I asked. Feeling very welcomed here.

Today at around 3:30 PM, I experienced harassment and discrimination while shopping as an African American woman. I was the only Black customer in the store at the time, which made the experience especially isolating and distressing. From the moment I entered the store, I felt uncomfortable. Several employees were rude, dismissive, and unwilling to help me. Some employees either could not speak English which I totally understand while some chose not to, which made it difficult for me to get assistance and added to the feeling of being ignored. I also observed looks of disgust from some staff, which made me feel unwelcome and judged. My purchase transaction was completed at 4:06 PM, and my cashier was Karina. After completing my purchase, I went to my car and noticed that one of the items—a milk rice snack—was damaged. Between approximately 4:10 PM and 4:24 PM, I returned to the store and went directly to customer service to resolve the issue. I had my receipt and was seeking legitimate assistance for a damaged item. After receiving help from customer service, as I exited the store and reached the entrance area near the carts and cars, I was stopped and confronted by an employee. The employee stepped aggressively into my personal space, bucking up in my face, pointing back toward the store, and behaving in an intimidating and hostile manner. I felt scared, confused, and unsure of what he wanted from me. Because I feared the situation could escalate, I walked back into the store and exited through a different entrance in an attempt to remove myself from the confrontation. As I did so, the employee continued to look at me with anger. He did not stop or question any other customers—particularly Asian customers—only me. Being singled out in this way made me feel racially profiled and treated as if I were suspected of stealing, despite having just completed a legitimate transaction and possessing my receipt. The employee who confronted me was a Hispanic or Latino male, and the store appeared to be staffed largely by Hispanic or Latino workers. I never expected to experience discrimination from others who are also considered minorities, which made this experience even more painful. Because of this incident, I no longer feel comfortable or safe shopping at this store. I did not feel welcomed, respected, or protected as a customer, and I will not be making future purchases there. No customer should feel intimidated, afraid, or targeted while attempting to resolve a simple issue after a completed transaction. This experience was humiliating, frightening, and unacceptable. I have worked in both retail and fast-food environments, ans still do. And I understand how demanding and stressful those jobs can be. I know firsthand how important it is to treat customers with basic respect and professionalism, even during difficult moments. That understanding is why this experience was especially hard for me to process. While I recognize that work can be challenging, this behavior was unacceptable. No matter someone’s race, background, or appearance—blue, yellow, pink, or anything else—everyone deserves to be treated equally, with dignity and respect.

What a great resource in the area. So many things you would need to do any sort of Asian cuisine cooking. So happy to have found Thai peppers that we need for Curry's and many of the other dishes we make. The ramen aisle is like Disneyland. A little bit confusing about where to enter but we got there early on a Sunday and just love the store was pretty empty.

I love this store plus the people that work here are super friendly. They have fresh fruits and vegetables, Freash sea food, fresh sashimi, and lots of other wonderful products.

First time going its a really big grocery store and arts n craft ext separate store was really cool for kids & adults. I ended up getting a lot of ramen and noodles at really good prices. Quick check out and great customer service.

Exploring H Mart...This Korean grocery store has so many great finds. Great Asian supermarket with quality fresh and live seafood. Huge rice, ramen, frozen dumplings and kimchi selection. So many Korean, Taiwanese and Chinese items. The sushi and Poke section is amazing. They have a great food court. Wonderful Korean food options and a bakery as well. Tous Les Jours has European style Asian pastries, breads and cakes. I decided to try lunch at Hansol Noodle Soup & Rice. So hard to decide but chose the Hot Stone Bibimbap, which is rice topped with beef and vegetables in a sizzling stone pot. It is really hot so be careful. The rice gets crispy bits, which gives it some texture when you mix everything. The side dishes are so good. The Bibimbap was delicious. I definitely want to try their other dishes So many of the kids from school were in the food court. They kind of overtook many of the seating area with their groups. Very lively conversations. It can be quite busy during that time. I would be happy to go back!
