Ba Mien Seafood Market

best place to get any type of meat or vegetables you could want for very fair prices. $100 will get you very far here. this is one of the best places to get fresh clams and crab in the city. the frozen section is also incredible. i brought my viet mother in law here and she was delighted to find things that she would usually have to get special ordered.it's usually pretty busy and the staff is usually occupied, but you shouldn't be expecting the whole foods customer service experience at a market like this anyways.one of my favorite markets in seattle, hands down!

5 stars!! Love this Market. They have everything you need packed into this little space. Prices are excellent. Love the fresh selection of seafood and most of all...LIVE CRAB! They carry everything from basic asian kitchen utensils, fresh tofu and soybean milk, fresh herbs, veggies, 25-50 LBS of rice, spices, dried and canned goods, noodles, decent meat department, and the friendliest staff! I wish I lived closer!

They have better meat selections than Seattle Super Market, they appear to be a hair smaller than SSM. I appreciate they have jack fruit that are cut up already! rather than purchasing the whole fruit.. Not a bad place to get your fresh rice ribbon noodles as well, so far every time I go (even if I don't get them) I feel to see if it's fresh/soft and they are. They're my second go to place for them if I can't go to the actual manufacture in Chinatown for the Rose brand. Decent pricing.

If I can give this store zero stars I definitely would. Stopped in this place Monday for a little grocery shopping. First time here. Bought the vegetarian Mi Can Xa Ot Chay at $6.99 (bought 2). Got home it smelled weird like it was spoiled and tried a bite. It was spoiled. Called the store and they informed me that it states on the receipt "Perishable products: deli, meat, seafood, vegetables and fruits are not refundable or exchange". WOW, you sell spoiled food probably knowing its been sitting in your refrigerator for a long time, and pass it off as its fresh, and when customers bring it to your attention, that's the stand your going to take? Will never come back. I should call the Health Department.

Bad quality seafood. I bought live clams from their tanks thinking it was fresh. But once I started boiling them they started to smell rancid. I had to throw them away, there was no way to save them

We waited in line for 5 minutes before One of the workers closed his line as soon as we got to the front . Then the workers ignored us when we asked where the tuna is .If I could give it zero stars I would DONT GO HERE IF YOU ARE BLACK !!!!!!!!

This is the first place I came to while viewing Seattle only because my mom wanted to buy asian food for the place we are staying at. It's like your any typical Vietnamese Asian Market, smells like fish and Vietnamese people shouting at each other in their normal conversation voice. The place is really small so you when you cross aisles you have to make room because that's how close you are (touching back to back). For a small place I was surprised they had kitchen stuff like bowls, plates, pots and spoons. Didn't stay in here too long because I was tired and decided to wait in the car. I guess they have good variety as well.

If I could give this place zero stars I would. My grandma came here to buy groceries and couple of baked goods. When she came home she realized that some of the stuff she bought wasn't bagged but she was charged for it. She came back to the store and explained them the situation. Rather than resolving the issue they accused her of stealing and trying to scam them. My grandma is near 80 years old she doesn't have the time to be giving these people the time of day or to be pulling shenanigans. I get this is a Vietnamese establishment and customer service doesn't exist. But my grandma spoke to them in Vietnamese and they dared called her a thief when they were the ones that stole from her! There are other Asian super markets where you could go buy groceries don't give these people your coins especially if they're out here calling sweet old ladies scammers and thieves.

I always go there to buy meats only because it's near my house. But today I wanted some crab so I went to bought 2, costed me $33.49 because $8.99 per pound. However, when my dad cut it open. It smelt like dead crab and it's so empty inside. I think if you can, people should avoided going there to buy seafood because they ripped you off!!!! GO TO LUCKY SEAFOOD INSTEAD OR SEATTLE SUPERMARKET IN BEACON HILL

Not friendly and no customer service. Called to find out if I want to drive over to get Dungeness crab and the lady on the phone was too lazy to check or the store was trying to deceive customers. Avoid at all costs.
