Garden Grove Supermarket

I like that they have Saigon Beer here. I will stop by and grab a six pack every time I’m going to my parent house next to this Supermarket.

I love Aisian/​Viet grocery stores in general. This Viet market is clean and bright and I liked the way it was organized. They do have fresh/​live fish, crabs, etc in the back so –1 star for the smell.
They had a great selection of tofu and some fried flavored lemongrass chili flavored tofu = awesome! They have fresh soy milk. There are also 2 restaurants for prepared food.
The produce selection was great and well priced. Same with the tofu selection. So many sauces the curry paste alone was awesome. The meat section was large and varied, sorry didn’t spend much time there.

This place is okay. Not a lot of variety for a Vietnamese super market, but it’s nice that there’s one in this area.

The worst asian supermarket ever. Who runs out of meat around 5 on a weekday? There was literally nothing left except chicken. Worst, worst, worst place to shop for your cooking needs. Will never shop here again and fyi to anyone who wants to stop by here, dont waste your time. You might not find what you need here. I gave it couple chances thinking ok maybe they will be fully stocked, nope 3^rd time here, never again

This market is fairly new and they have fresh produce for really good prices.
I bought a basket full of lemons, cucumbers, lettuce, spinach, parsley, apples, bananas, grapefruit, corn (3/​$ 1!) and more for under $ 10. If I would’ve gone to Ralph’s, Stater Brothers or Walmart it would’ve much been more.
I didn’t buy anything from the meat department. I’m into juicing right now, so I can’t comment on that. But I noticed they have a fish frying service in case that’s something you’re into.
They also have little shops and restaurants inside. There’s a sandwich store and fast food take out place near the registers. The sandwich place was selling sandwich sized baguettes for 10/​$ 1.25 and they were baked fresh. The fast food place had a lot of vegetarian choices too! There were more shops towards the back and the bathroom on that side.
This place reminded me of an Asian version of Fresh Choice market, but without the craziness. Fresh Choice is alright but their produce has gone down in quality and I hate trying to park there. This place has parking in both the front and back of the building.
FYI: There’s sketchy people around the area, CVS is next door and there are always people soliciting outside. I’m also a little skeptical about the Martin G. review below. I carry a huge purse (it’s like a bowling ball!), I like to have all my stuff with me and I didn’t have a problem using their bathroom. It sounds weird «Martin» had a purse! Just saying… but to each their own ;)

My mom and I went to Garden Grove Supermarket the other day.
We were at the seafood area and my mom picked out a few jumbo squids for $ 1.38 per pound. The Hispanic (Cara Feo = Ugly Face) guy who works there charged her for the small squids ($ 1.98 per pound). Mind you, I was in hearing and seeing distance. My mom told him that he charged her wrong. He said (very loudly), «Mama! It’s $ 1.98 per pound! Lookie over there! (And pointed)» She looked over and said, «No. It says $ 1.38 per pound.» He then continued, «No, Mama! You’re wrong!»
My mom then went over to me and told me to look with her and correct her if she’s wrong. She was right. I then walked over to Cara Feo and told him (while pointing and looking at the two different squids) that my mom bought the jumbo squids, not the small squids. He then apologized to my mom and re-​priced.
If Cara Feo had any book and/​or street smarts (because any book and/​or street smarts person can), he would have seen the difference between jumbo and small squids.
Now, let me write what I just wrote above in Spanish because (for some reason) Spanish speaking people stop understanding English when you point out to them their wrongs. They keep on saying, «No hablo ingles (I don’t speak English).»
— — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — —
Ahora, permítanme escribo lo que acabo de escribir antes en español debido a que (por alguna razón) la gente de habla hispana dejan entender Inglés al apuntar a ellos sus errores. Siguen diciendo: «No hablo ingles.»
Mi madre y yo fuimos a Garden Grove supermercado el otro día.
Estábamos en la zona de mariscos y mi mamá escogimos unos calamares gigantes de $ 1.38 por libra. El hispana (cara feo) chico que trabaja allí su carga para los pequeños calamares ($ 1.98 por libra). Eso sí, yo estaba en escuchar y ver a distancia. Mi mamá le dijo que cargó a su mal. Él dijo (muy fuerte), «¡Mamá! Se trata de $ 1.98 por libra! Lookie allí! (Y señaló)» Ella miró y dijo:” No. Dice $ 1.38 por libra.” Luego continuó, «No, mamá! ¡Te equivocas!»
Mi madre se acercó entonces a mí y me dijo que mirara con ella y corregirla si es equivocada. Ella tenía razón. Entonces me acerqué a cara feo y le dijo (mientras señalando y mirando a los dos calamares diferentes) que mi madre compró los calamares gigantes, no los pequeños calamares. Luego se disculpó con mi mamá y re-​precio.
Si Cara Feo tenía ningún smarts del libro y/​o de la calle (porque todos los libros y/​o calle smarts persona puede), habría visto la diferencia entre los calamares gigantes y pequeños.

You all need to do a cart pickup more often! There are carts all over the place and hardly any parking anywhere close. So annoying…
Empty parking spaces for carts. Car will be scratched at own expense.

Poor guest services when asking for assistance they only speak there language and said I do not know. Very frustrating experience would not go back. Went there to use the bathroom and as I was ready to go out the front door of store they made me empty my purse TWO security men wouldn’t let me out they kept saying you have big purse open and lets see what’s inside security man open your purse ,
Me for what
Security u have big purse
Me and
Security open we need to see inside
Me oh I opened my purse and then I lost it
Security we thought u take things in big purse
Me OK dumbshit u you think I took something then lets see how your cameras roll
Security well u have big bag
Me I’m the only Mexican American latina in the store the rest of them Vietnamese and the truth is American people born and raised. Here in United states, yes there is prejudice and segregation still going on especially here in my native state Californiaa

GG supermarket offers a variety of Vietnamese produce, meat/​seafood and other goods without the traffic and commotion on the Bolsa side. Good sales on fresh fruit and veggies. They are fairly new so check out lines are non existent. Parking is easy and there is a spacious lot on the side of Chapman Ave behind CVS.
They have many concessions in the store that are still available to be leased. So far there is a cosmetics store that is open. The staff is very persistent to meet their sales goal. They will insist on allowing them to test the latest facial scrub on your hand. Ok, so it made my hands smooth. But, I wasn’t SOLD… Is it safe on sensitive Asian skin?! Make sure when you check out. Walk fast toward the exit. Do not make eye contact or you will be caught buying a product that you don’t need or even want.
Overall, this supermarket is expanding slowly with small stores and food to go spots inside. Support the local business to boost the revenue in GG!!!

Best grocery store in the area. They recently remodeled and renovated the store and it looks amazing. Fresh Vietnamese food and the only one of its kind in the area! Highly recommend!

Looks like they’re still getting stocked half the shelves are still empty but some pretty cheap produce saw 10 avocados for 1.00 cheap, and a variety of stuff from Korean, Thai, Chinese and Vietnamese groceries plus a food court and huge seafood section must come back for some actual grocery shopping made a quick stop today between classes, the security guard at the front is friendly and helpful

It’s Thursday at 5pm and the place is closed. No sign as to why or when it’ll reopen. Just close. Very unprofessional. I drove a long way to come here. Very disappointing

Garden Grove Supermarket has been open for the last four months. I wasn’t even aware this grocery store existed until a couple weekends ago. I only finally realized when I was parked in the plaza across the street. I decided to stop in and grab a couple things to make dinner. The supermarket itself is much smaller than I expected. I suppose I was thrown off since the entrance looks so large and spacious from the outside. The produce section is off to the right side upon entering. Fruits and vegetables were reasonably priced. I headed to the meat section in hopes of picking up some chicken. I strolled down the refrigerated section of pre-​packaged pork and beef parts. Pig snout. Intestines. Tripe. Hm… no pre-​packaged chicken. I scanned over at the glass display of meat. How come there’s no chicken breast? I looked in the frozen section too. Come on… what gives…
The stars are for their availability of Korean ingredients (which is located between the cash registers and seafood section) as well as cheap summer squash. I got two zucchinis for $ 0.44 so I was pleased. However, the fact that they didn’t carry chicken breasts was a total disappointment for me. BUT after reading the previous reviews regarding their quality of meat, maybe it was a good thing they didn’t have what I wanted…

I agree with other Unilocalers that the meats are not fresh. I bought the meat home, cooked it and could not explain where the flavor has gone to. It looked fine before I cooked it, so it must be not fresh because the sweetness all evaporated. There is no other reason. The prices are high too. The veggies are NOT fresh looking either, only decent. Last time I went at 9:00PM on Saturday and it was closed. So the information on this page regarding hours is not accurate.

This new supermarket has all the essential Asian herbs, spices, and veggies for an affordable price. Live seafood section is very clean! They have a food court that currently sells bun rieu, phở, mi, and other to-​go foods. They will soon offer roasted BBQ pork and roast duck also which I am excited for! Other shops here sells jewelry, skin care, lotions, etc.

Finally, a Vietnamese supermarket on this side of Brookhurst!
They have been open for a few month but I never had the chance to cruise through it. The prices are reasonable, but their selection is limited. It’s nice to have something close by without dragging myself towards Brookhurst /​Westminster.
There is also a food court in the market, too! It’s still new so not a lot of foot traffic in the food area. In the time being, they have a banh mi shop near the front, a food-​to — go next to it, in the back a a Hu tieu shop, comfort food types food restaurant, and BBQ shop that offers roasted ducks, roasted porks, and other BBQ meats that hasn’t opened yet.
It’s new, clean and close neighborhood grocery store for us far out residents from the happening Bolsa area. LOVE IT!

This supermarket is the brand new, clean and modern.
There is awesome café inside called GiGi café.
The Che is tasty and the bread is fresh. I will definitely be back.

I love how clean and easy it is to shop at this new supermarket. They have everything that I would ever need or want from an Asian market. They even have some restaurants in the back with some easy to go food that we can bring home. The prices are comparable to the other Asian markets with the same variety and selection. I would definitely return and do my grocery shopping here.

I love doing my grocery shopping at this store, unlike other markets around the area it’s super clean and the meat, seafood and produce are really fresh! The prices are pretty reasonable and I like how there is a food court attached. I will definitely come back again!

A few mimi food courts and mimi stores inside: cutie burger, Viet Quan, Anh Ky BBQ, mien food to go, and gi gi café. Pro health section, liquor, and jewlers — mini store. Went at night looks clean still. Market is smaller than Dalat Supermarket.
Came back the next day and things are out of stock and quality of food is not good.
