Gobugi Asian Market

I’ve inherited my designated Korean market from my mom, I’ve been shopping here for years. I get the house made Kimchi which is stored in glass jars, which I love. Pre-​marinated beef bulgogi ready to go just throw it in the pan and cook, always tastes great. Always get the gimbap to go!

Th best Korean market in town. Fresh vegetables, good priced Korean food, and delicious side dishes. Most Korean pantry items are cheaper than other Korean Market: ex. Tuna cans, soy sauce, and other main Korean sauces. I heard that they purchase all these with cash. That’s why they get all these with cheaper price than other markets.

Neat little shop! Nice selection of asian products too. Prices seemed resonable. We got to meet an owner, he was friendly and suggested we tried his kimchee, heard ot was the best. We plan to get some when we find a cokler to pack it in to bring home. Other than that, i think its a nice place to check out!

The best kimchi is made here. I love kimchi that gets all bubbly and fermented, I get the smaller quart size bottle in the case with all the prepared foods. Produce is always fresh and reasonably priced. Meat dept is small but I always find lean flanken ribs here.

Always an adventure going to this store. I love the variety and the different selection of groceries. Best place in town to by butane canisters for portable cooking burners!

Gobugi is my favorite Korean grocers around. i stumbled across it after a soccer game among local old schools few summers ago. They were a little weary of me at first, but i think i finally got approved by them; which to my knowledge is not always easy. items wise they have a sleuth of delicacies along with their usual staples. i like their pepper pickles, dumplings and kimbops. i also bought cold ginseng drinks of good quality there, and it is the best i have found. Now i am hooked on them. Overall it feels very quaint there and what they have are carefully selected. it’s definitely worth a trip.

if you are looking for a walmart size korean store, this is not for you (that would be H mart). if you are looking for homemade (at the store) rice cakes, kimchi, some japcha, korean style pancakes, etc, this is the place for you. this store is the only reason I go to beaverton (well, other than visiting few of my friends).

cute little asian market focusing mostly on Korean food. i stop in once in a while to buy some seafood pancakes or chap chae for lunch :)

Your friendly neighborhood Korean market. It is smaller than most markets I’ve been to, but they stack everything high and tight. There is your usual array of vegetables, meat, and Korean pantry items. I didn’t find anything particularly interesting to get, and for us H-​Mart is closer and has more variety. If you’re in the ‘hood though and need something for that night’s dinner, I might suggest you go. Otherwise, head out to H-​Mart.

All I have to say is… they treat you different if you’re NOT Korean here. They didn’t even look at us when we asked for something Straight up rude!!! Never going back! Should of listened to my friends.

Biggest selection of Korean I’ve ever seen in the Portland area. Lots of fresh veggies and freshly made rice cakes. I would definitely come back here.

I loved this grocery, it’s a small little place, but has literally everything you need. and its all packed into a well organized shop. I was planning on treating the roomies to some chinese-​cooked korean dishes, and was pleasantly surprised to find (almost) everything I needed in one spot.
There is a good spread of fresh produce, and a lot of more obscure traditional veggies for korean dishes. I was so happy to find some sesame leaf for my dishes.
The pork belly I bought here was very fresh, and cooked up with an excellent pork flavor and Zero old-​pork gamey-​ness.
I also picked up a lb of marinated pulgogi, which I think ran about $ 5 a lb, which I was more than happy to pay considering the convenience, and the fact that it looked so good I had intentions of consuming it raw. in the parking lot. in my car.
They have a decent selection of korean sesame spicy paste (H-​mart would probably have more) but their general sauce selection here was more than sufficient for most brand preferences.
the only thing that I wished they has was more options for korean rice, in terms of 5lb or smaller bags. all they carried were 25lbs+.

Wow what a beautiful market. I’d heard rumors of a good asian market near Uwajamaya but hadn’t found it yet. Today was my lucky day. Great place for hard to find exotic ingredients a pleasant environment for shopping. Well organized and clean, adding this to my shopping route from now on.

The folks here are friendly and the store is clean. I come here for black sesame oil. When I went last November (2009) the tag on the shelf said it was $ 5. When I got to the register the nice cashier said $ 6. I said it was supposed to be $ 5. He said «OK, $ 5.50.» He thought I was haggling. I ran out of this favorite oil of mine and my boyfriend when and bought me a new one and now the price is up to around $ 8. It is hard to find so we got it.
Nevertheless, it is a nice enough store.

So we just got back to the USA and found that this place opened up after some remodeling. It closed down about a year ago and we thought they just closed up shop since H-​Mart was coming to town. The store is definitely bigger since the remodel and it looks like they’ve added a food prep area in the back for side dishes and meat packing.
Well, H-​Mart seems to be crashing and burning so we went back to Gobugi market for our Korean grocery shopping. It’s a small family owned place stocked with most of what you need a reasonable prices. I chatted with the owner a bit and his philosophy is straight forward pricing every day on fresh good food. We like it so far. The owner didn’t do any formal grand opening deal — he’s just letting people find out word of mouth…
