Hung Long Asian Market

I love Asian markets! I was in West Seattle, and needed to grocery shop, and came across this place. If you compare it to 99 Ranch, this place is small. I usually shop at Chinese markets, and being Chinese, I know more about Chinese products. I don't know much about Vietnamese products. So a lot of the snacks were foreign to me. I did find some rice crackers I like though!I bought:- persimmons- small yams- udon noodles- rice crackersThe price of produce is just ok, not the cheapest out there, but decent.

This market is fine for packaged goods like sauces and snacks. However, I found a curly piece of metal scrap in my Che Dau Trang (sticky rice dessert with black eyed peas). I would be very careful with any prepared foods from this store, as their food safety seems questionable.

Amazing and been coming here for at least 10 yrs ... owners are so friendly .. on good place in white center to shop

I come here often, so I am surprised I have not reviewed this Asian mart prior...the name alone, seriously! :) But monikers aside, it is well stocked. It has all the basics: herbs, aromatics, jarred/canned/dried staples, snacks, etc. The staff is super friendly and helpful, and it is family owned. Very clean for an Asian Market, although less clean than Korean megamarts like those in Tacoma and Federal Way.A couple of issues compared to other markets in Tacoma/Seattle:Expense: decidedly pricier than Tacoma and even supermarkets for Spam and other items. I am not sure if this is a Tacoma/Seattle thing, but it was a bit to contemplate for buying some foods. Still cheaper than Uwajimaya.Produce quality: every onion was bruised and the brocolli was old and like rubber on last trip. Asian items were fine. No Japanese items: very few Japanese goods. Most other ethnicities represented and are arranges by country mostly, but sauces are all together and there was a good selection of those.Limited selection of some items: one kind of Spam ($3.99!?) and a couple Asian generics. Okay, I may have a thing about Spam.No duck and roast pork. Sad. :(Overall, Hung Long meets my needs, and it is in my hood so I can go there often for the things I need to cook. My favorite market is Hong Kong Supermarket in Tacoma, mainly because it has roasted items and a full deli.Good basic place overall.

With the West a Seattle Bridge out of commission, I thought I'd head south instead for a few Asian store essentials. Fou Lee is my usual spot, and I was hoping this could replace it, at least until one magic year, we have a new WS Bridge. In any event, this place turned out to be OK, though not exactly what I was expecting. It seemed they stocked primarily Vietnamese and Thai brands. I thought the store itself might be more like Seafood City in Tukwila, but it was far less organized and clean. They have a basic produce area, nothing more. This store works in a pinch but it's not a great replacement for Fou Lee. I believe there's another Asian store not very far from here, and I'll likely try that place next before I'd come back here. I'd also be more inclined to take the scenic route and trek over to Fou Lee before I'd come back here. Again, not a bad store, as it's handy in a pinch, but a bit too limited for me.

Hung Long Asian Market is a great choice for specialty Asian ingredients if you live in West Seattle/White center. It's a lot more convenient than Uwajimaya (and better prices too!)THE ROSES: Easy to get to and plenty of free parking. Surprisingly good selection of products given is size.THE THORNS: Interior is clean, but a bit run-down looking. Funky layout, including using a deactivated freezer bin to hold and display servingware. No signs indicating what is down each row like most grocery stores have. This means if you're not intimately familiar with the store layout, you'll have to go up and down each aisle to find what you're looking for, and hope you don't overlook it. The neighborhood is a bit sketchy as well; I wouldn't feel terribly comfortable here at night, but it does appear the merchants who share this shopping complex do a good job of policing the area for loiterers and litter.THE VERDICT: Surprisingly well-stocked Asian market in a easy to reach location. I recommend this store.

I feel like every Asian has the one Asian store that they gravitate towards and then always go to. For me, that's Hung Long! They're a pretty big store right in the heart of White Center. They have everything I need for such a good price! Produce, meats, every instant ramen I need, the go-to spices and sauces for asian dishes, kitchen tools, and ready made food such as banh mi. If I need anything Asian related, I know Hung Long with be a one stop shop. They are very clean and always very stocked. If there is something you need that you can't find, they are probably about to restock it or they will show you where it is. Their workers are also the best! They are all such hard workers and very friendly. For the years I have been coming here, they have all been the same employees for the most part and the little exchanges I have with them in the aisles or at the register always makes my day.

I've been to Hung Long Asian Market a few times. It is small compared to Uwajimaya, but they have most of the Asian groceries I need and it is a lot closer to my house.They are located in a little shopping complex. There is a free parking lot, but it gets pretty busy and the spaces are small.The aisles don't have signs and some of the produce isn't labeled well, but mostly I just make a couple of laps to find the stuff I need. There isn't really anyone around to help you but I think most customers don't need assistance.In general, I find the prices to be cheap and the people at checkout are fast. I would definitely come here again.

nice Việt Nam people I love how they act and be happy some time decor store make clean

The produce section is kept nice and clean with the prices shown. However, the prices are not labeled in the canned and dry goods section, so you really don't know how much you're paying for them until you get to the Cashier. One time, I had a sticker shocker for some rice noodles. Big disappointment! I just wish they could label the prices better, so I'm not surprised at the checkout counter. Also, don't expect a great Customer Service here because that obviously doesn't exist here.
