Jung Ha Oriental Market

I was on the Peninsula earlier in the week and there is a string of Korean businesses in Newport News, so I decided to do a small tour of the Korean grocery stores and Jung Ha was one of them. They are on the other side of the street and light from E-mart. Jung Ha is a smaller mom-and-pop Korean grocery store. It seems a bit dated and looks like they've been there for a long time. I found the prices to be slightly higher than the bigger International grocery stores, but happy to support the small-er business. They have all the staples and a small produce section, as well as refrigerated goods. They have all the essentials.I picked up some Korean snacks like Shin Zzang which is a circular cracker that is slightly sweetened with honey and has black sesame seeds. I used to put them on my little fingers when I was a kid. These are super crunchy and I just love them! I also picked up some Samyang ramen and definintely a small jar of kimchi made in-house. I took a bite when I got home with Bread Garden's kimbap and it hit the spot! I had already purchased the kimbap at Bread Garden on a previous stop, but I noticed that they had a nice pile of kimbap packs at the register. Definitely going to pick one up the next time I am in the area.Enjoy, Friends, and go out and support!

I went to high school in Seoul South Korea so this place feels like "home". You are guaranteed to find what you're looking for. Gimbap prepared and all. Great Ambience. Friendly staff!

I came back to try the homemade kimchi and gimbap - both were really good and tasted fresh! They also sell japchae and savory pancakes as well

My 5 star review still stands from 5 years ago! This is a really nice Korean market. Today, I just picked up some water chestnuts that were reasonably priced. If I hadn't already done a ton of shopping I would've picked up more goods from the market. Come and give Jung Ha some business and show some love!!

This place was so cool. Ornate, decently priced especially with these crazy inflation prices these days. The owners were so nice and so hopeful. So grateful to have found this place!

Thank you for being open and having what I needed! This is a very nice store I know this may sound odd but it has a very nice feeling upon entry felt calming.I also enjoyed how friendly the owner is excellent customer service..

I absolutely love this place. i was greeted and helped anytime i needed something i couldn't find. love love love the food options. very nice and calm environment and i don't feel rushed or hovered over.

I love this place so much it feels like I'm in a Korean grocery store in Seoul, South Korea, and I love the The workers they're so nice and so friendly and I'm studying Korean myself so it's pretty cool. The workers can speak English and Korean so I get something out of it practice so I love this place. I totally recommend this place. It's so much fun. I feel like I'm in a small market in South Korea.

Great selection of items, very clean and their prices are great. I was thankful they had smaller radishes I feel like it's a waste for a single person making pickled radish with a ginormous radish. I'm not feeding a family of 5 off of one radish like the other stores in the area had.

My favorite place for Asian food. They have a nice selection of most things, but far and away, the highlights are their fresh veggies and made-in-store kimchi and other side dishes. MUCH better than some of the bigger stores nearby. The staff are very friendly, and always willing to make suggestions or let you dig through the varieties on your own. I've never been disappointed with anything I've taken home.
