There's three stores in this complex. I frequent the grocery store. I shop here for certain items I can't find anywhere else and their prices are better than other stores - Yakisoba noodles, chocolate mushrooms (Chocolate Kinoko No Yama), Japanese soy sauce, Japanese sesame oil, among some items. The service is always good and friendly. The store is clean and mostly tidy. I sometimes shop in the two other stores and they have a large variety of diverse products. It's fun to go exploring.

Marukai, located right next to Tokyo Central, offers an impressive variety of sweets and is actually owned by Tokyo Central. The store is nice and clean inside, making for a pleasant shopping experience.I stopped by to pick up my usual favorites: Japanese strawberry gummies, as well as green and red grape gummies. The employees here are also very nice and helpful. If you're looking for a wide selection of Japanese treats, Marukai is definitely worth a visit!

First time coming to this grocery store!It's quite interesting setting that there are two marukai store side by side! I see that one on right side (facing store) is the grocery and fresh products while one on the left hand side is more like snacks and skin care etc I like the store setting! Pretty cool and I enjoyed shopping! :)Keep up the good work!Cheers

The best place for your Japanese cook at home needs. Since I live in North County, I try to find an excuse to stop by at the market if I am in the area. The market has your standard produce, but also has lots of Japanese groceries and products that I cannot find in my side of town. The main aspect that I enjoy Marukai is for the sushi grade fish that prepackaged and ready to buy. Put it in your cart, grab some ice from their cooler, put it on ice on your way home and serve nice and chilled. For that reason I always bring a cooler in case I don't make it straight home. I get salmon, ahi, albacore, hamachi and yellowfin tuna. While there is lots of other fresh fish to choose from, these are my go-to's. They also have imitation crab and seaweed salad.They also have all the seasoning, sesame oils, dressings and toppings you will ever need. They have so many choices that the wife has to drag me away from the aisles as I take way to long to finally choose something. Takes a while since there are lots of items that are only labeled in Japanese, so many times I go by what it looks like. My questions are always answered by a friendly employee, which typically hang out in the front of the store. My favorite Japanese market always delivers.

Marukai Market is a cool little Japanese market that sells a variety of Japanese and other Asian foods and goods. We enjoy coming to this store because they have a great selection of products.Most recently we bought some ramen, seaweed, azuki (red bean) ice cream bars, pork cutlets, and some veggies. Marukai also has a nice selection of grab and go items that look tasty and fresh. We didn't get anything on our most recent trip, but we will probably pick some items next time.The only negative is during peak hours, there is no parking here. The other stores in this small shopping are Marukai Living and Tokyo Main, but it seems that there aren't enough parking spaces.The store can get busy during peak hours, and a line can form when checking out, but it usually moves quickly. The store is pretty clean and organized. Prices seem fair and employees are friendly. Definitely a store we will frequent.4 / 5 - Goods4 / 5 - Service4 / 5 - Cleanliness4 / 5 - Overall
