Arirang Oriental Market

Descent Korean market. Most items inside are Korean or from Taiwan. In the back. Fresh produce, some fish etc.... Mainly shelf products. In the back is a small food court that seems more like a micro restaurant. We were searching for a Chinese market so we didnt stay long or purchase anything... but it was a nice market

Great Korean grocery store located in Bethel Plaza! We swung by on a Saturday evening for ingredients to create Korean Fried Chicken (thanks Diana V and Manuela V for preparing the marinade and cooking that delicious dish) and Arirang carried everything we needed. They have an outstanding selection of packaged goods--think sauces, flours, spices, etc in addition to a wide selection of fresh, delicious banchan side dishes. The fish cakes, bean sprouts, and anchovies we purchased were all delicious. There's also extensive offering of frozen items and ramen noodles. Pricing was solid and service was friendly. Just a heads up that their produce selection is a bit small/limited, so plan accordingly if those types of items are on your list. We didn't try the restaurant in the back of the store this time, but the menu looked delicious. Heads up that the restaurant is currently closed every Wednesday and Thursday, though the grocery is open 10am - 9pm on every day except for Sunday (when they're open 10am - 8pm). Overall, an awesome stop for all your Korean grocery needs!

Love this shop nestled into a strip mall off of Bethel. They have a good variety of food, ingredients, snacks, and Soju (flavors like Apple Mango, Strawberry, Grape, Yogurt, Plain, and a few more). It's nice and the people there are as well. I like to stop in when I'm in the area to grab a couple things and support a small business. Small note to keep in mind-- they don't take AmEx but they do take everything else!

Not a Very huge store, but they do have a good amount of frozen items. Snack selection seemed a bit small, but there's definitely a variety of savory options.I saw a lot of people come in to get soju, likely much cheaper here than at Tensuke LOLI got a hot sauce with chicken flavor, bottled black tea, and a savory ramen snack.My friend got frozen fish and a few other items.They also serve cooked food here that you can buy. Bon chan is in refrigerated sort of near that area. Would love to try the food next time!There's diversity in the folks who shop here. Glad that people appreciate Korean culture!

I really enjoy Arirang. Whenever I need to stock up on Korean food items, I stop by here and spend at least $100! They have everything and I literally get everything! A typical haul for me looks like this: a 40 lb bag of rice, frozen rice cakes, spicy cold noodles, spicy rice cakes, Samyang noodles, pickled yellow radish, kimchi, yogurt juice, yellow curry, and shrimp fries. Whenever I need soy sauce, sesame oil, or gochujang, I pick that up here too. I also like to pick up the pre-packaged side dishes here as well - bean sprouts, radish kimchi, spinach, fish cakes, etc. If you enjoy Korean food, you should definitely stop by Arirang to see what they have in store for you!

Love this small little grocery store! I usually come here if I need some ingredients for a Korean dish. The cashier/front desk guy has always been kind to me and my friends whenever we come in.They have a small variety of everything, but don't expect to get a whole stocked store with lots of options, especially produce. They have lots of Korean snacks and frozen items. There's a huge ramen/noodle selection and Asian sauces. This is one of the few places in Columbus that has Soju also.They also have a restaurant in the back of the store that has entrees for under $10 which is a steal to me. The ladies who work in the kitchen are phenomenal. The food was soo good I think about it all the time.There's a parking lot out front and you never have to worry about parking.

A lot to choose from but owner tried to charge me for 3 extra things! Good thing I checked my receipt before leaving! Had to go back and ask for refund he knew what he was doing he refunded the ones I didn't purchase! So CHECK YALL RECEIPTS!!!

Few times we visited this grocery store we came back with bad taste in our mouth and hurt feelings saying we will not go back there.However the main problem is the guy at the front who is not interested in taking care of customers or business. Is he the owner of the store?If so this sad story because he is not going to make it. He is hurting the business badly.we are very sorry for the owner of this business.lets shape up and save the business. Simply you need to reshape this guy at the front counter or get rid of him for everybody's sake.Sorry to tell you this but it is to save the business..

Arirang is a mostly Japanese and Korean market. I poked around in here waiting for a restaurant to open. The place isn't that big but has a few interesting areas. It has a cafe in the back. The selection is fairly okay. I first noticed a bad smell upon walking in. It was coming from the cafe in the back. They have very fresh fish here. At the cafe counter you can place an order. They have lots of classic Korean items. It has pictures on the wall so you don't have to attempt to pronounce them. There's also a case with premade items. I thought Arirang is a nice store for looking through. It's got some hard to find items. The selection wasn't as good as other Asian stores but they have the basic stuff.

Fabulous Korean grocery. Great food court in back. The day I went, some produce wasn't super fresh, but still great.
