Vietnam Plaza Grocery Store: Reviews & Ratings

Looks small, but packed with good variety of prepackaged & frozen Asian food, drinks, vegetables, fruits, & cooking supplies. They have great selection of different instant noodles to include different flavors of Indonesian ones, shrimp shumai, frozen eggrolls, fish tofu, asian meatballs, durian, honey mangos, prepackaged seasonings. They also have a few stuffed Asian bread in the front of the store. It's clean & organized. The aisles are tight, because of how much they have, so if you want to spend time browsing, consider going during not-so-busy hours. The staff were responsive to longer line of customers & worked efficiently by opening another cash register.

I've been here to pick up stuff for my restaurant and they always there to help me. You can even call ahead of time to get it so they can have it ready. And when i say when I get to the place, the STUFF already ready there at the door for me to pick it up. AWESOME! The people work are extremely nice, I mean they all check the items and make sure that the items I purchase is good to take. Like for instance, the basils...beansprouts etc.

Pretty good store with lots of Vietnamese items, some Chinese, and some if everything else. Delicious kimchee in the refrigerated section. Disappointed I couldn't find some Chinese items...oh well. Can't win them all.

I just don't get why people pay so much for herbs and vegetables at your typical "American" grocery stores. I realize there are probably some things you want to buy from Kroger and Tom Thumb (I place meat in this category), but other things make no sense at all, namely herbs (basil, mint, cilantro, etc.) and vegetables. The prices are so reasonable, you'll feel rather silly for shelling out all that cash for a sprig of mint elsewhere. Most herbs are three bunches for a dollar... In the American grocery stores it more like a dollar for a single bunch. You also find other staples, sriracha, chili paste, hoisin, etc. to be less expensive too. And that''s without mentioning all the other items you won't find anywhere else. Yes the meat and seafood area can present an offactory challenge, but if you want the best price on fresh live crabs, look no further. Now I will be honest in that I do question the cleanliness and sanitary practices of the wet counter, but I have eaten many a meal prepared from items from the meat and seafood department and have yet to suffer any ill affects. So I guess looks can be deceiving. Lastly, I've never had any problem with the "friendliness" of the staff, though sometimes I've encountered a bit of a language barrier. If you can't say the Vietnamese name of the item you are looking for, you may be met with some blank stares. If that happens, look for a younger person (perhaps even another shopper) and ask again. Chances are you will receive the help you need to find what you are looking for.
