1st Oriental Supermarket

We were so happy to find Asian market in this area. We stopped by to get some food for our camping trip. There’re so many fresh vegetable to choose from. We loved that they sold yu choy which’s our favorite one.
The seafood was just ok not that fresh. We bought 1 pack of brown egg and discovered half of them were expired and rotten… very disappointed.

I love this place! Amazing selection.

Omg this place has everything. One of the best Asian supermarkets I’ve ever been to. I’ve found so many flavors of drinks, food, and snacks (mostly snacks) that I’ve never seen before. I’d just come from eating lunch and was plenty full but looking at all the food in here made me want to shop like I hadn’t eaten in days. They have everything in English and Chinese (or whatever language the item originally comes in) so don’t feel discouraged if you can’t read whatever the bottle/​box/​label says. I wasn’t. Can’t recommend enough.

Some good oriental foods. Others are so so. Vegetables and meats are cheap. Breads are good. The thing that bothers me every time I go is the pungent smell of fish the minute you walk in. More than half the staff don’t speak English so you feel like you are in a foreign country.

The store has the greatest selection of Asian products I have seen in the Florida. By the bones of it, it seems to be in an old Publix. This is in Orlando’s Chinatown. When you walk in there is some sketchy stuff in the beginning where they sell, sell phones and phone cards and pirated DVDs and the like.
They have live seafood, I’ll kind of scary stuff and anything you could possibly want to they have it.
And you walk in it’s kind of stinky but I guess they’re all like that because of the massive amount of seafood they sell. Check it out you won’t be sorry.

This is by far the largest Oriental supermarket on this side of town if not Orlando itself. They have everything under the sun from almost every Asian country in existence. This supermarket is located in a large plaza rounded by many Asian restaurants and shops with more on the way (They have built a brand-​new building within this large Plaza). The location which houses this supermarket is very rapidly progressing into a mini Asian town within this plaza.
They feature in addition to the regular part of the supermarket a deli, Café, fresh seafood area, frozen foods, exotic plants, and even Asian video stores in select rooms within this supermarket. This is usually my go to store for rare Oriental/​Asian items and/​or groceries when I am in Orlando. I’m not sure, but I thought I saw a Western Union counter in the front also.
It’s always fun looking at all the rare and exotic products they have offered here. I like to go in each and everyone of their aisles to check out what they have. Size-​wise, I see this specific supermarket as being comparable to the MD Oriental market in Saint Petersburg, FL. This Orlando market seems slightly bigger to me though.
Though the surrounding neighborhood appears questionable to some people, don’t be afraid. It’s worth visiting.

This place sold me kalbi ribs with no meat. They froze two sides of the bone together to make it look like 1 piece but it was all just bone. Never coming here again.

A fish market/​grocery store/​bakery shop/​convenient store … 1^st oriental has a variety of options to pick from.
Usually stop at the store to pick up some Paratha, really good stuff best served with honey and a hot cup of mint tea.
The Fish market area, located at the very back of the store is always packed but one of these days I’ll make extra time and wait in line to get some fresh, out of the tank, fish.

My adventurous soul like to try new things, specially when it reminds me of NY Chinatown.
If you like to try new foods and want a awesome casual lunch. You have to try the lunch box at lunch hour.
omgggg the roasted pork, salted chicken and roast duck is just like Chinatown in ny, delicious.
let’s not forget all the fresh vegetables and fruits. THEN there are Rare Ethnic Finds. …Good Luck Hunting.

I was amazed that this is the only place in the area that sold sea food, im used to sea food fish smell but this took the cake, i was scared to even try something.
You be the judge. But be VERY VERY CAREFULL

Much better than I thought!
It’s great to find such a good oriental supermarket in Orlando!

A really nice oriental market! It has a wide variety of products and fresh meats, vegetables, fish, etc.
It includes a BBQ rack and a little bakery inside too. I frequently get cakes here because the fruit on them is very fresh.
This place will be my go-​to market for oriental foods!

If you are looking for any asian product that you can’t find anywhere else come check here. It is super big and full of a wide variety of thing, from meats to produce. Also, they have boba tea and other desserts that you can try.

This super market is huge! I mean huge!
I walked in to buy a bottle of water (what can I say florida is really hot in the summer) and was surprised at the size, so I obviously had to take a look around.
They have a giant Asian pastry section filled with every type of pastry you could think of, an aisle filled with only noodles, and a whole aisle for tea as well! They even have a Chinese BBQ section.
Also all the way in the back they have tons of live fish, lobster, and crabs. The only downside was a very strong fishy smell at the back of the market where all the fish were.
What I was truly interested in was the boba shop that is on the left, right when you enter the super market. It’s kind of well hidden but they offer tons of different bubble tea flavors– more flavors than most speciality shops I have been to.
I ordered a mixed green tea milk bubble tea and it was great! The tapioca pearls weren’t overcooked to the point where they are smushy. They were nice and chewy but not too chewy.
The green tea milk tea itself was silky smooth and super creamy, it was great! I would come back here just for the bubble tea alone!

Most time are good! One Cashier is rude especially the lady long hair with a black frame glasses!

I’ve only been here once and my initial reaction was that this place is HUGE! And it appeared very clean compared to typical Asian supermarkets. Unfortunately, aisles weren’t large enough to allow 2-​way traffic of carts which was really irritating. So, I eventually decided on a spot out of the way to «park» my cart while I roamed the aisles to return about every 5 – 10 minutes. I’m not sure what was going on but I think employees were snatching things out of my cart and putting them back bc my items kept disappearing! Eventually after a couple times of finding things disappear my friend and I decided one of us should stand watch of the cart for the rest of our shopping trip. And then it wasn’t until after checkout that I realized they’ve taken some other items that I hadn’t noticed prior. so that was annoying.
TIP: I would recommend you have someone accompany you so that there’s always someone to watch the cart from having items snatched out. Or if you’re not shopping heavy, just go with the basket… but I always shop with a cart-​full.

Service not the best but the best selection for teas! A whole isle dedicated to all teas in various ways. Awesome want to go back to buy more different Tea

I admire the Asian Culture and over the years I’ve grown to love Thai, Vietnamese, Oriental, and Japanese food. The food is healthy for the most part. This super market has everything you could possibly need to create your own Asian food. I always try new things and for the first time I tried green tea cookies. Can’t wait to go back and stock up!

Food there is super unfresh except roasted duck is good, some of veggies and flour I just bought last week and I try to use today I found there are alot of insects in the flour all little blacks on paper but they are died already I pick 32 little black insect from the flour and there are still lot inside soooo horrible! the reason why I have to post coz last time I bought veggies toro when I cut it down its all black in side I through away them and gingers melons are alll not fresh, some already go bad… my god, I drove couple hours for have something fresh and different and I always got surprise like this??? I hope the owner should be responsible for customers and sell fresh food, or not just sell the market let somebody else take care that would be better perhaps.

Great centralized location for all your asian grocery needs. The place has half an aisle worth of chili sauce/​hot sauce… It’s a little disorganized like most asian type establishments, with unopened boxes in certain locations throughout the store.
They offer fresh cooked foods and roasted chinese meats as well. The vegetables used to be better quality when they first opened but somehow nowadays the vegetables are either too old or not fresh, a big disappointment. The fresh seafood market in the back is still very good.
Overall, this is what I would think the equivalent of an asian Walmart would be.
