Modesto Oriental Market

Not the cutest store from the outside but they make up for a variety of food at a reasonable price. Helpful and Nice Employees/ Owner! Will be back for more

Lots of selection of Asian food. Customer service is excellent, I just wish it's has a bigger space. It's a little bit crowded.

Huge selection of variety of Asian products. I came here to find Filipino snacks and some ingredients for pad thai. They have lots of noodles. Frozen fish, fresh produce and hot food. They also have a frozen section with a sparse selection of frozen stuff, including ice cream. I was happy to see they had frozen suman. Had all the different sauces, spices, drinks, ramen--- you name it. The store is small and the aisles are very narrow. It really promotes getting in and out quick. I don't linger too long. There isn't much change to the place too, so have an idea of what you want, get it, pay for it, and go. The market isn't anywhere near the level of 99 Ranch, so don't get unrealistic expectations. But it has all the core ingredients one needs to make a variety of Asian dishes. I am glad this market is in Modesto because otherwise I have to drive all the way to the Bay Area for ingredients.

This market has quickly become a go-to place for me to pick up all my Asian needs and wants. There's a ton of stuff in a very small space. Whatever you're looking for, it's most likely here. My favorite spot to visit is obviously snacks, which is conveniently located right by the front door. Any kind of yummy childhood nostalgia I could think of is sitting on those shelves. All kinds of shrimp chips, crackers, lychee jelly, polvoron, cracker nuts, you name it. One bite immediately transports me back to being 6-years old and surrounded by friends who are trying to figure out why anyone would eat seafood flavored snacks. Whatever, it's awesome. Just shut up and eat your Doritos, Kyle. Everything you need to put together your preferred Asian dish is on a shelf somewhere. Spring roll wraps, so many kinds of longanisa, Tocino, Daing, lumpia, dried anchovies, etc. You want fish sauce, they have all kinds. Banana Ketchup?? What brand? Dozens of brands of canned corned beef, sardines, vinegars, sweet Chile sauces, Mama Sita's seasoning mixes for pancit, calderetta, sinigang, lechon kawali, afritada, kare-kare, etc. Everything you could think of for halo halo. You want Durian?? I don't know why, but they got that too. And don't get me started on the noodles. There's an entire aisle with whatever kind of noodles you need. If you can't find it, it doesn't exist. You made it up and you came and looked for it. I also like the small wares section. Bowls, plates, mortar and pestle, woks, brooms, tabos, and anything else you might've seen at your Lola's house. I haven't tried the take out section yet, but I've seen some good pics that make me wanna pick something. They have a ton of rice that takes up the front corner of the store and behind the counter, you'll find things like White Flower and other asian toiletries. So yeah, I like this place a little. I just wish it was closer to where I live.

Price to high the owner not friendly at all sea food not best fish to expensive ask to use restroom only for employees!

Anna is an amazing cashier/ owner! Always so friendly. I love that they have such a huge variety for all your Asian inspired cuisines. In my opinion for the store being a smaller establishment, not like a chain store their prices are so reasonable.

Nice, small Asian market with friendly, helpful staff. Carries a wide selection of pretty hard-to-find sauces and snacks, even ones you'd likely not find in big Asian groceries. It's pretty Filipino-oriented, so if you need something Filipino, they'll likely have it

Compared to other Asian mini markets in Modesto, this place is my last resort (rarely to almost never stop here). Customer Service acceptable, but just not much Asian variety (that I need) in the store, prices a bit high, and a lot of items seem old or outdated. I grew up in Modesto all my life, so for those not aware, there are other Asian mini markets in Modesto - biggest best one is on Carver Road (which sadly got burnt down in process of reopening soon), another one on Paradise Rd (Battambang Market), another on Yosemite Ave (Inthavong Market), another on Mitchell Rd (Laos Oriental Market). Or if you don't mind driving to nearby Stockton, then plenty of real Asian Supermakets - SF, Super King, Lions, etc.

My go to asian market in Modesto. Anna the cashier/owner is very friendly and accommodating

I've been coming here for years and always get good service and information from them.
