Great selection of Asian and other ethnic food you can't find other where, veggies are always fresh. Saves a trip to T and T.

Mike Day

Very nice place

Akshaya Badhe

Variety of seafood...and it is comparatively cheap.

Has lots of fresh produce, fish, place poultry, meat and also lots of eastern type food. Great option for fresh and healthy grocery shopping downtown without breaking the bank.

I live this place as it has more options of green vegetables

Melissa Dicks

It a good store . To try new things . So much to choose from ...

Rudy Brown

They had fresh fish.

Samantha and Sara Creighton

Great little market! Cheap meat!@

Em Galloway

Great variety of Asian foods. Super cheap deals on fresh chicken, beef, pork, fish and other seafood! Amazing selection of fresh vegetables as well. Also sell fresh bakery style items like buns, breads, asian cakes etc.

Tseemnco yaj

It's good place to shops

Deepak Vishnu D

Good shop for Chinese food items. But the smell inside the shop is horrible.

Cindy Hu

variety of Asian food with good price. Parking is by the road for free or paid parking lot closeby

Jonathan Sapinski

Great selection, great prices. Staple for weekly Asian fair.

Shelly McCullough

The smell of rotting meat hits you in the face as you go through the door. I grabbed my one item and left as fast as I could. They only take cash and debit and debit only if it's over $20. Good place for your Asian specialty goods.

Jeeshan Mirza

Probably the most "Asian" of supermarkets. Brings me memories of markets in Malaysia or Thailand. Strong smell, a bit untidy and unclean-but one can say its a part of the charm or token of authenticity. It is possible to get unusual fruits, vegetables, spices and condiments here-that you probably wont get elsewhere.

Andy Mud

The best place to buy vegetables and fruit. Good quality paying much less than any grocery store around.

Jong Leu

fresh meat and vege variety are among the best around downtown and good deal, but canned foods are usually bad however.

chastity timmons

Bbq duck and pork

B Phommasenh

Always the best place to get cheap groceries

Alex Kruger

Good prices, good selection. You can only use debit on purchases over 10$, which I don't mind but might factor in for some people.

Lisa H

Prices are great. Tons of ramen noodle choices, such as mung bean, rice vermicelli, etc. Awesome selection of soy sauces and vinegars. Fresh produce. Interesting Chinese, Thai and Japanese products. Lots of noodle options. Fresh meats and seafood. If you are looking for black vinegar, rice wine, Asian sweets. Great place.

Jeff Lu

(Translated) Cheap (Original) 物美价廉

Lou

Best Asian Supermarket. Specially the quantity of meat is better. Surpasse B&T store.

Reem El

Terrible smell in the store, but lots of products and hard-to-find Asian grocery items. Really good prices on the produce (but not huge variety)

Christina denn

The service attitude of the merchants is extremely poor, and the attitude towards the guests is extremely impolite. He shouted loudly, as if he was your boss, don't make a mistake, the guest is your God. In addition, the meat is not fresh.

Tim T.

Great Chinese BBQ place inside. Good selection of meats, vegetables, and Asian products.

ROB Anderson

Wonderful ????

Ella Pettit

This store is a little disorganized and not the most efficient layout, but it does have a wide range of products that make the shopping experience enjoyable and worthwhile. I like to walk here with my boyfriend and buy daifuku or White Rabbit matcha candies.

Ti S

Fresh vegetables, lots selections of Asian goodies and the price is way better than western grocery stores. Go check it out.

Robert Hunsberger

Kinda dirty

Sean Fullerton

A charming place, I do a lot of shopping here, and find that most of the products are very good, people are hostile to this place because its very foreign to them and how the business is run, I never have a problem here, and shop here all the time. The roast duck is amazing.

Ly Lam

It's like an old-school family own Asian supermarket. Selection is a little hit and miss depending on the day of the week but it's a good size for this community.

RonaldE

I found the prices here on the high side.

Anh Trung

Great staff

Tanujit Laha

This is good shop..you can get all kind of Chinese and Indian vegetables and fish and groceries....

Jim Boles

Cheap and good.

Kelly Hornblower

Dave McVittie

Chinese pork is excellent. Great place to pick up asian ingredients in town.

Kevin

Cool store. You have to shop by picture

Karl Nieva

Pretty unorganized. This place would never survive in the GTA.

Laura OrignallyApple

Always love their deals on produce! Cheapest price on lemons I have seen in quite some time. There is nothing like window shopping for new and unique food!

Dr William Alejandro Martin

An excellent asian grocery.

Aries Monkey

Everything you need but don't expect any nice service.

Ariel Johnson

Easily the best grocery store in town. Has everything you need for unbeatable prices.

Anwar Darsot

Great assortment of Asian foods and fresh grocery. They need better parking arrangement and maybe clean their floors every once in a while

Chase C

Great place to find delicious ingredients for dinner

Shona Sam

We used to go here to buy fish. They had good fresh fish available, but the staff has been rude or unfriendly many times and hence we stopped going here.

dana cornish

Very well stocked

Angela Z

Price and location is OK for the people living in the Waterloo area.

Stephen Lizak

Cheap produce. Difficult to tell what items on shelves are sometimes, but able to get some items that are otherwise difficult to find, such as sweet potato instant noodles. I don't eat the barbeque but it does smell really good, and there are counters with fresh fish. Has the best rice ball desserts (mochi?) that I've tried in the refrigerated section.

Gilberte Poincaré

Good "deli" and takeout lunches

K E

Cheaper than T & T

WEI PEI

Always find what I need.

Gary Walsh

The best Asian grocery store in Waterloo Region

Mary Quimby-Edwards

Family run...just amazing!

Mario Stocco

Very neat Chinese supermarket. Great quality produce. Warning: it is a Chinese supermarket.

Mayukh Mukherjee

Good

Edward Tang

Love this place for raw fish.

Elicia Szeler

Great selection

Amanda Schell

Love the market

Brian Limoyo

Great variety of Asian staples, such as greens, Fruits and vegetables as well as tofus and dried items. Also a great variety of sea food and butcher. Their bbq and duck are also very good. Excellent prices and convenient parking, can be very busy so plan to go in the afternoons if you can

Shiju Easo john

Average experience. Felt like meat products are not very fresh

Justine Thompson

The selection is great all around and you can find some pretty obscure ingredients that few to none else would carry. The store was cleaner and more organized than in previous years and the smell from the fish counter was not as strong which was a nice change.

Alpenliebe

Best grocery store you can find in Kitchener-Waterloo region

Yijing Cui

It is a fantastic supermarket! A plenty of choices and many choices of Chinese brands! Also the prices are fair!

李世博

It's an ok place beside the parking and the smell inside the market

F. T.

OK. However, they have to do something about the smell.

Cuong Quy

Unfriendly and dishonest!

JusTinaLane

I love this store. There meat is so fresh and 100%better then any grocery store.

Jay

Good stuff

Shivam Gandhi

Excellent grocery in Downtown Kitchener, wide range of asian vegetables, fruits, and groceries. The cleanliness is pretty good, but the staff should sweep the floors in the produce section as there are leaves everywhere. Warning: There is a strong smell of fish as soon as you walk through the main entrance of the store, its really strong. They have a takeout section for purchasing cooked meats. The meat section of the store is very organized. Overall, I recommend New City Supermarket to anyone has never been in a Chinese grocery store before

josh comeau

I never buy anything here gross an not very clean way better places to shop

Hugo Nguyen

Small but has lots of things in there

si ngo

Best place for BBQ pork and roasted duck. The best by far.

Bethany Dawson

Used to love coming here, but I've started feeling like I'm not wanted in the store. The lady that rings in my products ALWAYS throws them, bruising my fruit and trie's to rip me off by ringing the produce in for more than advertised. Just downright rude, and I'm certain it's because I'm white, she'll be laughing and joking with the people ahead of me, but when it comes to my turn, she's rude, unfriendly and won't even look in my direction. Being rude to me I can look past, but throwing the products and slamming them on the counter I cannot let go, am I not a paYong customer? I used to shop here often, but now I go to B & T because I'm treated like a person.

Andre de Goeij

Looking for Asian specialties this is the place to be.

Ann

Bit messy.

Xiny Liu

Pricy but cleaner

Rossana Yasmin Effendi

Able to get most of our asian ingredients there.

Erica Bowes

I would not eat any meat or fish from here. The smell inside was rough, and did not give me any confidence in their products

matsiepan

Pretty decent selection. Cash and debit only. Lacks the breadth of products from stores like Nations and T&T but that is to be expected in K/W. Decent meat and protein options in fresh and frozen as well as some of the herb and veg/fruit selection. Store is relatively clean. Some complain of the fish smell bit they do have a lot of fresh and frozen fish so that is to be expected.

Emenike Nwosu

Great selection of spices.

Yutong Wang

(Translated) The scale is inaccurate, the camper's face is ugly, the price is good (Original) 秤不准,收营员脸很丑,价格不错

Amin

Liked it

Tim Collins

Wife's favorite store

John Gilbert

Great Chinese grocery store.

Farid Sharifi

Ok

洪旻勝

The interior is a bit on the run-down side, but it's a decent place for Asian groceries. (The roasted duck and crispy pork are amazing, by the way; sanitation, not so much)

Jiachen Lu

(Translated) Superb Chinese supermarket with roast duck and various fresh foods (Original) 超棒的中国超市,里面有烤鸭和各种生鲜

Brian Harding

Language problem in this store.

Krishna Bhandari

Staff are not much helpful. No public washroom. Poor cleaniness. However, good place for fresh vegetables.

Vito Alencar

Fresh sea food

Galileo

(Translated) Good! Great variety, less than $ 10 if or if Cash. (Original) Bueno! Gran variedad, menos de $10 si o si Cash.

Skylar Norheim

Normally come here to buy all my produce, never have any problems. Except for the other day, bought a little cheesecake from their dairy aisle, brought it home and it was coated in thick green mold. Low and behold the expiration date was April of this year! That is so unacceptable! I know I may be at partial fault for not checking the date on the back but if you are a grocer that is going to sell dairy items you should be checking the best before dates before selling it. I am so disgusted, and for $11.99 I am even more upset because for that kind of price things shouldn’t be expired! I would bring it back but left the store without a receipt. Will never buy from their dairy aisle again and just a word of warning to anyone to be sure to check the dates on this item in particular.

Jane W

To be honest, the place can do with a little renovation, but it has about everything you need for an Asian grocery, at least the basics and a little more. No hot food. The price is decent. Has a butcher shop and a fish market.

Abimbola Ademola

Love

Fran Ceconi

Great place and good prices.

Safwan Alshabbak

Good

Laxang Lao

If you need roast pork or duck here it's the place

Michael Lau

A typical Chinese grocery store. Pretty clean, decent selection and price is a bit on the high end

Christine Moncrief

Great market but no dairy for sale here at all.

John Kuntze

Interesting place, you will see things that you will not see in most grocery stores. I go to pick up items I cannot get elsewhere.

helen ma

I found what I need.

hasanhuseyin kucukkara

Very good

Eugen Sofronov

Love this store for the variety of foods, especially fruit and veggies but can't sand the smell of fish and flesh, or the sight of the carcasses.

blank blank

Right in the heart of downtown, but still has a lot of parking at the back (getting there is a bit confusing and the entrance/exit can only fit one car, but still a lot of space to park your car). They had really cheap drumsticks and for a small store there was a lot of stuff in there. Not everything was cheap of course, but definitely worth your time to at least have a look around

Carlos A. Paredes

Great food store

Rebecca Nilsen

You can find a ton of stuff here for good prices. Just need a few mins to acclimatize to the smell on entry.

一只鸭

(Translated) The owner is very nice, the waiter is very enthusiastic, and the stuff is also very complete. I often drive to buy things. The one who says the waiter is ugly, are you okay? (Original) 老板很好 服务员也挺热情的 东西也很全 我经常专门开车去买东西 底下那个说服务员丑的你有事没????

Debayan Paul

Huge selection. Probably the best in the KW area

Mike Zhang

Lots of choices, real Asian stores = +&-

Edward Yap

Dirty, unorganized and very limited parking. One extra star because they have some hard-to-get items.

Charlaine Simpson

Good place

Judy Botejue

I get all my Asian vegetables and meat from this store.

亚磊李

The shopping environment might not be that good, but price is a lot better than others. And the staffs are really nice too. I like there

Arthur Rocha

A great place to buy fresh fish.

Randall Culp

Good place for Chinese products as well as many other things!????

Nelson Ing

Ok prices. Not the cleanest, some boxed stock piled on the floor.

Able Android

I all ways find something new and Authentic every time I visit. My only caution is that if you can't stand the smell of fish I would not suggest shopping here(does not bother me at all)

Ranajit Sequali

Farmers market

Roberto Montes

Local Asian supermarket. Pretty much what you would expect

summer123 Brian

It was amazing but it was hard to find the items I was looking for in such a supermarket

James Loh

Great place to shop.

Fani H

I come here for their BBQ duck.

Sergio Pochon G

You can find any ingredients, vegetables, anything for Asian food

Demian Melnyk

If you need specialty Asian items, this is one of the better stops

Tim “TiMBoLiSk” Woodman

What a culture shock. Cool place. Lots of neat items. Some very odd smells too! Check this place out for your asian food needs for sure!

Jon Mesquita

Decent deals but horrible service.

Leon Xu

(Translated) There are many kinds, but the environment is not good (Original) 种类多 但是环境不太好

KOCHANSKI V P

Best market in town!

Upol Hasan

Lots of variety of products. Good service in fish and meat section. At times could get quite busy.

Caitlin Bakker

Great produce selection, especially of leafy greens. Cheap meat, ground beef is regularly 2.99 a lb

Sabine Bones

Large selection of many foods, particularly those not available in conventional grocery stores.

E Cascarita

They have things I can't find at at other supermarkets, only problem is everytime I have a question or need help not one person in there has spoken or understood English!

john silva

Nice new store, with great variety of Asian foods, live shellfish and some fish, lay out is nice. Good location, was extremely busy when I was there.

John Chen

Typical Chinese supermarket with selection of cooked traditional Cantonese BBQ meats at lunch. Only takes cash or debit

Eugene Dalope

Very good

Royce

Came here thinking this was a small supermarket, turns out it's a lot larger than it appears. Fresh produce, meat, as well as food items from all corners of Asia. Came away with lots of Filipino, Vietnamese and Indo ingredients for my future meals!

Michael Alfredo

New City supermarket

M H

Good market to get fish and vegetable

Diego Marquez

Good prices, but the attention is "concise"

Mike Sulja

One of the few places in KW area to get authentic Asian food (imported). This place is not the cleanest and typically smells like fish due to the butcher section that has meat displayed openly. The setup is actually better than places in Asia but considering this is Canada, I would hope so :) They have a fresh produce section but make sure you know what you're looking for as it's not typically labelled well. If you want a clean Asian store go to T&T but sometimes some items can only be found here.

zujun xu

Good place to get unique Chinese food and kitchen stuff. Low price and you can buy fresh fish alive!

MaFer S

It's a small store with some vegetable variety.

Khalid Al Ali

(Translated) It is a comfortable place, it is very beautiful (Original) ومكا ن هاد مريح انهو جميل جدان

Dave Walsh

Great BBQ. Strange and unusual snacks. Great variety if noodles and soup.

Caroline Joy Venton

I think I need to shop with a translator... So many new and interesting things to try great vegetables and fruits!!!

wareez bashorun

Food, vegetables , meat, live fish and other good food as fresh as you can imagine.

Tizzik Prince

Asian market items. Awesome price

Ben Ziv Garcia

Not as clean and tidy as tnt but there's a lot of asian products and frozen goods to choose

Trixie Monstopplibuur

the staff is always extreemly rude. poor Service if you are causation. went there after work with my boyfriend and an older lady followed us around yelling at us the whole time until we payed and left. this was a terrible experience. racial profiling 100 percent of the time I've gone there. next time I'm going to t&t.

Natashya Moran

Fantastic selection of Asian foods, vegetables, meats, and seafood. Prices are fantastic but staff are not very friendly.

Brian Lay

For South East Asian groceries this is the only fix you'll get. Forget B&T down the road, they're a joke. T&T in Waterloo is mostly catering to Chinese. While it may not be the cleanest, it definitely is welcomed. Prices are low and quality is medium.

Ariel Li

This store is overall OK, but a lot of foods are expired, usually it is good for ethnic food shopping, especially Asian foods, watch the expiration date before you take the items.

Michael Mior

One of the few Asian grocery stores in the area. Pretty good selection of items although the produce is not always the best quality.

Roman Ksenia

The grocery is good, price is very good. But service .... may be a bit unusual for Cabadians . Just be ready for it. :-)

Matt Herrewynen

Very rude very unhelpful staff

Troy Dettwiler

A little chaotic, but I like certain unique produce. Prices are good, but not a steal by any means.

Eric Westwood

The ORIGINAL Asian market in KW

Kousik Das

A place where you can everyrhing..fish..veggies..meat..

Oluwafunmilola Folarin

Nice place to get my International grocery

小麻吉家家愛

(Translated) Sells a lot of domestic seasonings, things are very cheap, but there is no parking lot, and a fine of 20 Canadian dollars for parking violation (Original) 卖很多国内调味料,东西都很便宜,但是没有停车场,违停一次被罚了20加币

Robert Ma

A terrible and dirty market. Asian markets don't have to be like this. Can we please have T&T already?

Na Jin

(Translated) Chinese supermarkets in the Waterloo area can basically buy what you want. (Original) 滑铁卢地区中国人超市,基本能买到你想要的东西。

David Gou

Not the cleanest supermarket, but it gets the job done. Some staff are not friendly.

Lynn Trinh

Asian grocery, decent price, free parking.

Nazanin Mahdieh

An amazing collection of Asian foods and fresh produce

Willow Blankenbaker

Have two rabbits and this is the best place to get the veggies, crazy cheap prices. Fun snacks for humans as well !

Pablo S

Good prices and wide product selection.

Eric Cornish

Amazing Asian market, I go here for alot of their Japanese snacks!

Zhiyuan Shen

Cheap grocery,. OK quality.

Piotr Roszczyk

Great selection of food but check for expired items and cashier needs to learn about enthusiasm.

tia elle

Found a few stuff that is expired. Went to tell the staff, told me they will remove it, the next day it's still there. Watch out for everything that should have an expiry date. Found a some from their canned items.

Janina S.

went there because I was told they have really good prices on produce. Found them no better than any other store and the produce was not the freshest. The place smells so bad. They have chicken and fish out in the open where people can cough and sneeze on it. They touch raw chicken then keep shopping....not very sanitary. Don't know how this place can stay open. Will never go there again.

Nam Tu

Great Asian market

Steven Friedmann

I'm new to the K-W area, and was concerned I wouldn't be able to find a store like the one I was used to, but one visit convinced me I had nothing to worry about. This is a large, well stocked, traditional Chinese grocery store. It has everything I was looking for, and more. The store is clean, and the staff are helpful. This is definitely the start of a long and beautiful relationship!

F Wang

More choices of variety and clean/open shopping area

Akumagba Irene

I do my shopping for fresh produce here monthly. Everything is fresh, great prices as well. This is also a great place to get fish and meat for great prices as well. However sometimes communication with the cashier is hard as they don't speak quite nicely sometimes.

Timothy Trisnadhama

Too dirty and smelly

John N

Great selection in the supermarket, amazing prices, fresh veggies and meat. I met the owner Dan, he provided great customer service.

Keke Kumar

A lot of options for vegetarians, non vegetarians and vegans!!! A must visit place for Asian cuisine lovers. Fresh supplies everyday.

amy tran

RUDE STAFF, SWEARS TO CUSTOMERS, JUST RUDENESS, NEVER AGAIN

C.J. Morrison

I come here frequently for asian goods that I cant find elsewhere. Pros: - Friendly atmoshere, staff is welcoming though admittedly, not very talkative. - Rare goods, lots of snacks - Good prices Cons: - credit cards not accepted - often cluttered.

Helen Mika

the cashier with a bad attitude

Rob Fines

Decent selection of Asian foods, lots of fresh seafood, decent hot bbq takeout

Josh Lobe

Good food

Allisa Scott

The biggest fresh market with anything your heart could desire in Asian food!

Hanna Rozon

Good selection of products.

Mackenzie Eckert

Such a large stock of authentic ingredients and foods. I can always find what I need for a recipe.

Fenge Loo l

Smell is not good better than before though

Rat 1250

I go here all the time with my mom and I love coming here, everyone is super nice and they have the best foods and snacks. I love the Swiss-rolls they have and the pork buns too!

Holly Sun

I love the Asian food there and the seafood is very freah. The price is also very good compared to other stores

ApexEppy (ApexEppy)

For a store of it size fo ethnic foods they dont sell mu h varieties compared to smaller Asian markets.

马伽羅

(Translated) Nice supermarket (Original) 不错的超市

ying yang (Maggie)

Don't have much option but to shop here for Chinese grocery. They do have a good selection of vegetables that are common in chinese dish but other places do not sell. I always go on friday night or saturday, that's when they have the fresh vegetables. Other times, they have low stock or low quality vegetable.

Lauren Kaita

My go-to place

Juil

Probably has the best selection of East and Southeast Asian food in the KW region.

ishu bhattarai

Weeken fun in Kitchener city

Lenny Leopere

Be aware that their hours are an indication of when they'll be out of the store and not when the store closes it's doors.

Lam Lai Tu Dau

This place has the Asian foods but its cleanliness has tones of room for improvement. The smell of fresh fish, meats, etc is also not the friendliest welcoming element here even though fresh food is a good thing. Their prices are also competitive. As we have very few choices of Asian foods stores in KW, we do come back but we aren't going to recommend it to people.

Kelsey Lenti

This place has everything, including the stuff you didn't know you wanted. Great place to discover new things, or find standard foods for a reasonable price.

Tessa D

Tons to choose from here, although it's good to know prices, as some things are a good deal, but many items are more expensive than other stores.

Elizabeth A Kennedy

Beautiful selection of fresh and frozen fish and meat, blue crab is sometimes available, many choices of dry goods and vegetables.

suneel kumar

best place to buy groceries and non veg

Erica J

Small no-frills Asian supermarket in the city. Good prices on items and it should meet the needs for basic dry goods. The place seems clean & organized enough though a bit dated. The parking lot in the back is small but people politely lined up for spots during my visit.

The One

Lots of deals to be had

zack 47

So stingy

Jenchil Chiu

The best Asia supermarket

Eric Uhlmann

Great store! The fish and meat counter can’t be beat for freshness. It is a Chinese grocery store, so you will see and smell certain things that you won’t see at Zehrs. Unlike some other people on here, I see this as a plus. For example, when you buy a fish, they gut it and remove the scales right in front of you. It’s not pre-packaged in foam. Live fish are literally swimming in tanks underneath the counter. Away from the maritimes, it’s as fresh as you can get. Because of this it smells different, yes. Also, not all of the staff speak English (again, for me, that’s also part of the fun). But it has the freshest and cheapest food of all grocery stores in the area, and lots of different and new ingredients to choose from. I love shopping here!

Amy Tran

Another bad experience Bought 2 chicken. Paid buy then noticed the chicken wrong priced. Says 10.99. She charged me 11.99. Told the cashier (owner older.lady). She yelled at me and told me these are the bigger ones and its 11.9. I said if.you put a sign up for that would help. She only had 10.99 and I guess the hope people dont notice and charge them more. Scam Wish I can give them negative. Never again goi g back and hope they get caught for scamming. Please guys, look at what they ring in.

James Hillier

Best Asian food selection in the region - good luck finding what you're looking for. They only accept cash or debit.

Steven Z.

(Translated) Affordable prices are king. The most affordable Chinese supermarket in the KW area. (Original) 价格实惠才是王道。KW地区最实惠的中国超市了。

Dan Paul Nguyen

For lack of a better way to say it, this location is very 'western-friendly'. It's got a lot of variety, the prices are good and it saves me from having to make a trek out to Mississauga (was looking for viet/thai stuff)

Cynthia Yi-Hsuan Lin

Lots of Asia food especially Taiwanese food. We really like this supermarket and will definitely come back.

Sait Payam

Smelling bad

Marion Feehan

My daughter is woundering if anyone can help her find a asian treat called "POKEY "? thank you!

Woolwich trading post

Is it just me or has this place gone downhill?

Jian Relatos

Great location, lots of options to choose from. There is just that certain smell...

Nick

Great selection! Can find ingredients and items here you can't in a traditional North American supermarket.

Steve Onotsky

Great place to get Asian ingredients and snacks for home. The produce is usually pretty fresh; the selection of frozen fish balls, wontons, and fish products is pretty good. They have a small BBQ cabinet, as well as a fresh seafood and meat counters. Great prices, as long as the smell doesn't bother you (it's not too strong, just unusual).

Dalia Ishaq

Chinese

Thompson Nguyen

To whom it may concern. I would like to post this message for people who go to the New City Supermarket located at this location. Be aware of your grocery bill before you leave because it happen to me three times already! First time, I bought a bag of chicken bone, the owner charge me almost $15 and I came back to complain and the owner thought it was chicken wings. Second time, I did not bought the green onion, but he charge me 1 bunch of green onions on my bill. Third time. he charge me the beef flank for $34, instead of $24 which the tag was stick to the bag. Folks I had enough and you should watch out when you go there!

Thomas Yi

Best place to go for Asia food and snacks.

vignesh waran

Good but not excellent place to shop

akin akinpelu

Got most of my seafood needs there

Crystal

Always a great selection for Raman and all kind of yummy things.

Morning Light早晨的光(爱耶稣 Love Jesus)

it is a great to get Chinese style grocery, the vegetable and meat is fresh, the price is reasonable, lots of good stuff.

ML Wessel

I gag every time I walked in this store because of the rancid smell, but used to shop there if I was in the neighbourhood for the cheaper vegetables and a few treats from my days of living in Asia that I got nostalgic for. The fact that I could never get any help in English looking for items I overlooked. But on Friday this past week, I bought a soy dessert product that I did not realize was extremely out of date, more than 2 weeks, (never occured to me to check that because there is always lots of traffic in this store), and remember now the cashier glancing in that direction of the sell-by date when ringing the item through. Conveniently I was never given a receipt but did not think anything of it til I got home and found the soy product was so far past inedible it was not even funny. Naturally I could not prove when I bought it plus it is miles from my home. I will NEVER shop there again.

Denise Linton

Omg! This place was stink .... very stink. I could not stay in there for too long.

Natalie Sophia,

Right around the corner...everything you need and less expensive than T & T... Made With Lau - Chow Mein Steamed Noodles from scratch ????

Kanatonn Factongphol

Not the best Asian grocery store. But better than nothing. Cash or debit only.

Chloe Addie

Great place. Has everything and isn't too crowded.

Angel Wales

Pretty good selection of goods, and the bbq pork is great

Hui Zha

Good price with good selection!

Christine C

Don't buy the fish or meat but everything else was great. Some of the women working there are grouchy and a little rude but some were nice and helped me find the sauce I needed to finish my recipe. Good prices, lower then anywhere in town actually.

Jon Wojkowski

This is where you go for the cultural experience. Definitely not the super store.

Tong Chen

Good price, but many packaged products expired.

Gordie Hanna

A great place to get hard-to-find Asian foods, but the customer service is really poor. To use the debit you need to purchase a minimum of $10 too.

Milton Ruiz

If you like cooking Asian food, this is a good place to buy for your next cooking project. Good prices and lots of sea food.

Shoua Vang

Being the closest Asian market to us, it's not bad. It gets the job done. Limited varieties and it's always hit or miss, depending on what you go in there for. Today they had no jalapenos. The old ladies seem to constantly be pissed for one reason or another. The guys are usually much better and more friendly. Their vegetable selections were nice and fresh for the most part. Same goes for the limited herb selection. I was very happy to find that they sold their sweet basil and another longer herb together. Both of these are great to garnish pho. All in all, you'll get at least half of what you go in there for. And there's a good chance that you'll find suitable substitutes for most of the other half.

Alexis Jieun Bae

They have a good selection of Asian foods including Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese and some Japanese. I personally think that they have a wider selection than T&T.

Jamie Li

Good selection of East Asian foods. Prices are generally okay. Interior is a little dirty and unorganized, which is typical of a lot of these smaller Asian groceries but still an area for improvement.

Mike Barron

Rude ppl no respect for customers cashier has no manners through receipt down but was so nice to chinese couple behind me no doubt there racist never go there again dont reccomend

Dean Beauregard

I like the different types of food

Justin Case

It's clean and well stocked. Good assortment and fair prices.

Jessica Carbone (Jess)

Best fresh fish selection

Master Clat

Really niceee place

Gladys Abboud

Smelling filthy.. A lot of materials.

Scy Akulick (Scyoni)

Great range of products and good prices. It seems like it could use a deep clean and the smell of fish is pretty intense, though.

François Sunatori

Lots of choices of asian food and the meat is cheap

Edwin Cheung

You can find most of the stuff you're looking for at a reasonable price, problem is hard to find parking in this area

dariusz chmielarski

Small Chinese store but good enough

Orange Squeeze

Dirty/ filthy unsanitary use of shopping carts and etc

Priscila A.

Cheap

Daisy Li

Good price for the meat and veggies.

Thiago Perrotta

Not clean. My roommate claims he saw a mouse inside there.

Michael Wright

Lots of Asian products, but the stench is offputting. Needs better cleaning.

Alex Vallée

Unfortunately this place is pretty much the only choice in KW. The smell is quite bad when you walk in and the public health inspection report confirms that this place isn't really clean. Search for this store on the Region of Waterloo 'checkit' for details. Whenever we end up doing something in the Toronto area there's always a stop at the nearest T&T for the stuff you can't really get at Sobey's/Real Canadian/Fresh Co.

M Jones

For a long time there was no other choice for finding Asian foods in the Kitchener/Waterloo region and this was the sole reason I shopped there. They stocked a lot of the foods I was familiar with from Asian grocery stores in Toronto. The prices were good and the produce selection was varied, but it's very dirty and the staff are extremely unfriendly. They are racist against caucasians, blacks, brown people and most asians. Had a weird experience where a customer had dropped a jar onto the floor and the produce guy was freaking out. I agreed it was going to be hard to clean up and he proceeded to scream at me for no reason and I still don't know what he was on about. I tried to buy produce that ended up mispriced and was shouted at again, and then told I had to pay a two dollar surchage on orders under $8. I know they only charge it for orders under $5, I've been there enough times. I wouldn't touch any of the meats with a ten foot pole, you can smell the bleach on the chicken. Really awful dump of a place, can't wait for T&T to open up!

Thip Davis

90/100 you can find Asian food here. Lost in communication sometime. No washroom. Hard to get parking spot.

Arielle N

Cheap and I can get all my Caribbean ingredients. Love it there.

Jennifer Heard

Lots of harder to find items at decent prices. One of my go-to grocery shops.

Ann Lu

got there on a Monday 8:15, store supposedly closed at 8:30. workers/owners were still inside but doors were locked. I just wanted to grab some water and snacks but they didn't even bother to come to the door to say we are closing early. instead, they waved and gave me a looks as if i'm homeless or about to rob them. If the store close at midnight and it's slow i understand the owners try to tidy up early, but since it's a weekday and it's still early, i don't think this is acceptable. Will not go back there again, and please do not visit since based on other reviews it's dirty and disorganized.

Michelle Martin

Lots of selection of 'fresh' poultry and fish. Also a good variety of produce. There are several aisles of Asian snack foods and sweets. I was looking for a few very specific ingredients and could only find one of the four -- pretty disappointing considering the size of the store. The cleanliness seems to have improved over how it was years ago but the store still stinks like old meat and fish. Shelves are greasy and sticky. I prefer the Waterloo Central Supermarket up by the University of Waterloo. It's much cleaner and doesn't smell at all. Although the produce selection is far less.

Mark Church

Great place for exotic groceries fish, and BBQ pork!

Sultan Mahmood Ghiasy

Good price & quality.

hey

Great foods, vegetables and meat. Only issue is parking. People go to the farmers market and then us costumers who want to just go into your store can't. I know they come back from the market to go to yours but you also lose our business as well since we can't shop

Hung Nguyen

Decent selection

Yevheniia Otavenko

Do not buy products there. The store smelled. Before the store closes, they sell rotten, spoiled, smelled fish, and the next day they laugh in the face for a claim. Deceivers and scammers????

Neilson Truong

Doesn't have sticky rice which was disappointing. Good fresh meat though.

Elizabeth Ochola

You find most veggies and fresh fish at this place.

Dean Holbrough

Largest asian food market in town. Lots of fresh varieties of vegetables and fruits. I always buy something I haven't tried before.

Ishor Kafley

Some good stuff for Chinese .East Asian and even Nepal and North East Indian people would be happy to see the product related to their daily food.

Christopher Wall

Great place to shop

Kil Cha

Manju Mohan

We usually go here for fish, fish is really good, fresh. But the customer service is so bad. The staff at the fish counter is rude, when we asked for 2 fish he forcefully made us take three , else he said he wont give any. Place is not so clean

It is great to have a grocery store downtown but this one falls a bit short. Staff are not very helpful (with a couple exceptions) and the store is not clean. I would bump the rating up to three stars if they would just clean the shopping baskets once and a while!

Sarah

I've been shopping here for 4 years. But after what happened today, I won't go back anymore. I bought two canned quail eggs this morning, the price showed 2 for $5 but when we checked out, the system showed one was $2.99. I told the owner (she was cashier today) she told us I must have picked the wrong item (there is only one brand canned quail eggs there). She refused to give me a refund and also didn't want to check the price. The more ridiculous thing was she told told me that a machine won't lie but people would! I've had price mistakes twice here already, and this time they called me a lair. I rather go farther to B&T or T&T instead. They even aren't worth one star.

Tara A

Great for everything

Dan Gabriel

Good products a little more expensive than other places but they shut the doors on us 20min before closing. Stood in the doorway and watched us while we tried to enter. Ignored us but let a young Asian man enter to buy stuff. Racist!!!

One of the best Chinese grocery shop in down Kitchener.. good to buy fish and pork here. I don't reccomend to buy chicken from this place.

S Maynard

Though foreign, and with scents and food I'm unfamiliar with. It IS an adventure!

Honey Bee

We bought “fresh” fish from here. When we got home, a couple of them smelled rotten and looked smashed. Not only could this make someone really SICK, it was disgusting. I called to explain and instead of handling the situation with common courtesy, he laughed and hung up the phone. I tried calling back and there was no answer. Maybe the health department should be aware if they’re selling fish that has gone bad. I’m just glad I noticed, otherwise we could have ended up in the hospital from consuming it. Never shopping here again.

Jennette Reid

There's always lots of great products available here.

John Habel

Find it yourself: good luck getting help finding things. Lots of variety and decent prices too.

Pam

This place is awesome. The prices are 1/4 of the prices at T&T and the service is always friendly. The produce is always fresh and cheap! They have many interesting foods there and even a small vegetarian frozen food fridge. I go to this often. It’s a nice local store.

Suman Sen

Very handy place to find all kind of Asian food and spices which you don't find some where else. It sells fish, meat, crab, muscle, pork, roasted meat.

David Abolarin

Jizzy B.

My fav asian supermarket in the area. Not the newest or cleanest but better selection than the competition.

David Nobrega

this is a proper asian grocery store. has everything you need.

Maris

Though the place had a wide selection of Asian ingredients, I would probably not come back. The staff is really rude and the place stinks. There were even piles of meat that had no protective cover whatsoever.

Cyan Kuo

Maybe I'm just used to Asian supermarkets in Toronto, but this one is just a little small and disorganized. Still plenty of great finds here, a decent butcher, a plethora of ethnic specialties and prices are pretty good. Produce can occasionally be somewhat wilted or less than fresh, but more often than not is just fine.

Douglas Borowski

A little pricey for some things but you can get thing you won't find anywhere else. Love the dinner buffet here also.

Franka Andriano

(Translated) The milk in this supermarket was spoiled and the zucchini was really bitter. Everything feel stale. I am really disappointed with this supermarket. (I am really disappointed with this supermarket. I bought it here before and became like tofu flower milk (stale milk). Just today The zucchini (zuucchini) I bought is bitter after eating. I checked it online because it has deteriorated. The bitterness contains toxins. The food in this supermarket is very stale. Think twice before buying.)

Marjorie Campbell

They are nice people I will recommend anyone to go there .

Jean Finch

Don't go if you're white or black.... Employees won't acknowledge you or even answer you if you don't speak Chinese. Smelly store, very unfriendly.

Kale Vicario

Something smells fishy, but it might just be the huge selection of fish. There is nothing fishy about the great selection of specialty goods for sale at this location. The basil seed and white gourd beverage was certainly something to write home about, and the aloe was exceptionally ripe; perfect for hair hydration. All in all definitely worth the visit, as long as you can handle the smell of the sea.

Hector Vasquez

It is the best Asian food supermarket. Excellent prices and the nicest people around. I highly recommend this market for your grocery shopping.

Kellie Michalak

It's says they open at 9:15am and never open on time. Kinda frustrating..

tony huang

(Translated) I am also a regular customer of this supermarket (more than 10 years). Every time I buy a big bag and a small bag, I can't hold it with two hands. I usually accept a little bit of advice. This time I really can't stand it. , I don’t have any credit at all. I don’t leave the goods that I booked on the phone. Don’t you know how important credit is to a merchant? I don't have to be so loyal to such untrustworthy merchants. Maybe you don't miss me this tens of thousands of yuan a year, and I won't go to your place to buy goods in the future! (Original) 我也算是这个超市的老顾客了(1O多年了),每次买的东西大包小包一个人两只手都拿不了,平时有点小意见我都用包容了,这次真的让我受不了,没半点信用可言,电话预定了的货竞然不留给我????????????你们不知道信用对于一个商家是多么的重要吗?对于这种无信用的商家我也不用这么忠诚了,或许你们一年也不差我这一万几千元的,以后我不会再去你们那买货物了!

Pedro Davila

Bad sanitation. I looked one of employees grabbing meat without gloves and another one who was wearing gloves and arranging chicken after that he went to clean fish with the same gloves.

Xing Fang

May not be the cleanest place but generally better price than T&T

K Zhou

Great selection. Small parking lot behind the building

Richard Fuchs

Very good selection of Asian groceries, including vegetables, fruits and other items you will not find in traditional supermarkets. The produce section is quite good and pricedy fairly. There is also a small area that offers Ready-to-Eat meals. The fish and meats section seemed very fresh as well, although the aroma does permeate the rest of the store quite strongly. Don't expect a lot of customer service. Payment is by cash and debit card only.

Shengyun Zhang

Good prices, okay for cleanliness, basically you can find what you like to have. Read the labels!

A B

Great place for Asian cuisine ingredients. Very good prices on leg of lamb and lots of herb and peppers.

Matt deJonge

All the hard to find asian ingredients here. impressive fresh fish selection.

Mostafiz Molla

Nice

Kathryn Lambert

This is a wonderful Asian market. There are fresh (swimming) fish and an incredible variety of beans, rice, spices and sauces. Vegetables, frozen seafood and things that I'm not even sure what they are. Go. Even if you don't buy anything its an interesting visit.

Maureen Barrow

Great Asian grocery store. I recommend it for the broad selection of dry goods! I don't recommend buying your produce here unless you intend to use it right away. (The exception is if you're looking for an obscure ingredient.) It has great BBQ pork!

Kezhen Gao

Simple asian supermarket, one of the better roasted ducks in the area. I wish they kept the tempearture warmer during the winter.

Frank May

Good for Asian cooking.....

Alexandra Hadleigh

Extremely racist employees. If you're black or non-Asian, expect to be treated badly, ignored and given dirty looks. Very clear that this stores wants only Mainland Chinese Hans as customers. Store should be shutdown for discrimination. Black power!

Ron Leduc

It sucks there. They don't have anybody to help find things, and most of the employees dont speak English. There shelves are always empty.

Rick K

Great prices and selection. Always get my pork belly or duck here.

C.J Salvisburg

Best shop in town. If I could give 6 stars I would. All the hot peppers I could ask for, fresh produce, meats galore - couldn't ask for anything more!

Somlang Simoukda

Very good

Becky Brooks

Not too bad the is good

Ivy Hopkins

I have been going there for a few years now and the last visit was the 1st time that I was treated in a friendly manner. Very poor customer skills. It is very difficult to get help for English-speaking people. It is almost like they do not want you to come in their store unless you speak their language. Not a very hygienic place. I usually only buy prepackaged things from there. A lot of cross contamination going on so you have to be very careful to protect yourself.

Dan V

Stinks of fish, great selection of foods.

Ashley Isaacs-Trotman

Great selection of fresh veggies and meat as well as great Asian treats.

Najma Jose

I had an extremely bad experience today (Sat , Sept 8th 2018). I went to buy fish , ordered it and asked to have it cleaned and cut. The guy at the counter did it but while packing he dropped the clean pieces on the floor. The floor where was standing was filled with water and it had dirt , meat , fish waste etc. He picked the pieces from the floor , quickly washed it under the tap and gave it to me. I politely refused to take it and said it was unhygienic. He threw the packet into the garbage and continued with next customer. I told him that I came to buy fish and he said "you didn't take it. You can go". He said I can speak with the manager at cash counter. I went and spoke with lady at the counter and she didn't help. The fish was worth $9.86. The guy himself knew that it was unhygenic and that's why he threw it away. And he refused to pack fresh one for me. I have been shopping there since 2013. Not anymore. Not going to that place ever again.

justin Nkwanyuo

Great shopping center for all kinds of fresh food products. Excellent customer service

Enrique Velasquez

Great place to shop for asian foods. They have a ton of variety for fish and meats. They even have a cooked meat station where they sell cooked pork and duck. I went to buy ingredients for hot pot and they had everything I needed. Great selection of green vegitables and the staff were polite. If you plan on using debit, it has to be more then $10. The store isn't as crowded as most asian markets in the area so there's room to walk and everything is laid out nicely. Will definitely go back again. They also sell asian cooking utensils if you want a more traditional approach to eating or cooking your food.

Critic Review

I don't hate New City Supermarket, It is actually an interesting store to walk around. But I give it 1 star because when I was here a few years ago, they had an open bucket of RAW CHICKEN for customers to take. Customers were sicking their bare hands into the bucket of raw chicken as if it was fruit and then putting it in plastic bags and continuing their shopping. Needless to say many of them handled other products in the store, or money to pay the cashier (money which would then be given as change to other customers). So the trail of salmonella is inevitable. I would never buy anything from here because I do not want salmonella, but walking around the store if fun, especially if you're interested in East Asian culture. I'm happy this supermarket exists in Kitchener, I just wish it took health and cleanliness more seriously.

Helen Jackson

Great fish always fresh. Nice veggies.

Rosa MD

Great asian products. It's true that the store smells like fish and unclean. But, it's ok overall.

Anita Daniel

Rude, crass and uncouth staff, why would any right thinking human being shout at a customer? Or even have the audacity to ask them never to come back? Why why why? Like he rightly said, I will never step foot into their store again, enough is enough. Inconceivable disrespectful, unfriendly and snobbish staff, seems like the concept of respect is foreign to them.

Bermuda Kelp

I love how cheap a lot of Korean products are. Waterloo Central Supermarket is very pricy on the other hand. It does smell bad but I can deal with it to save quite a lot of money! Also, just be careful to check the expiration date of products here since some products has passed its expiration date by a couple of months.

Brad Schubert

Large selection of Asian imported foods, including dried mushrooms and many instant noodles :) :) :)

used to go there for roasted pork, but it looks like the bbq stall in there has closed for quite a while now, have they moved?

Tyler Schlichter

Street parking. International food and vegetables. Family friendly. Clean. Not washroom for family. Good price.

First time...easy to park as parking lot is located in the back of the store off King. Good size store with variety of fresh meat and fish counter. Fresh produce. Found everything I was looking for and more. Prices are reasonable. Would recommend!

Excellent

(Translated) The price is advantageous, pay attention to the quality and shelf life! The peanuts were obviously (severely) rotten, and they were taken off the shelf after telling the clerk! (Original) 价格有优势,注意观看品质与保质期! 花生明显(严重)霉烂,告知店员后下架了!

Topical local Asian supermarket, it used to be one of only asian market around the area til T&T comes in. It doesn't have a lot of things anymore compare to before, smells like fish and meat. Things are expensive unless on certain sale so know your prices! It should probably be noted that they actually won't sell you meat if you don't buy a lot (me being alone) even though the price is per lb. Buying vegetables depends on your luck, sometimes it's nice quality and sometimes it's stale. Only thing I like about this place is they have really delicious crispy skin BBQ pork usually on Friday and weekends (come early, around noon or bit after!)

I love this place. The prices are great and the variety of things you can buy is unbelievable. It's definitely a different experience then you chain supermarket, but has much more unique options.
