Rego Seafood Supermarket

Greens were very fresh today. The store in general looked extra sharp.
Also, there are some new products available. They have ramen noodles made with carrot flour.
They also had fish heads available by the bucket. It reminded me of the song «fish heads». Sorry, no photo. I’ll get it next time.
They still have some bean cakes and snacks. for the lunar new year.

I am so happy that I found this gem of an Asian market in my neighborhood! I’ve been in Rego Park for the last year and until now I have been trekking out to Jackson Heights for Asian goods. This place may not be as sprawling as some of the more familiar markets in Elmhurst and JH, but boy do they fit A LOT into a relatively small space. I was actually able to get everything on the list I had written originally for a trip to Pacific Supermarket.
They have a lot of different types of noodles, including fresh phở noodles. I got the kind of gyoza I wanted. They had all the spices and sauces I need and then some! They even had Mr. Brown’s Taiwanese iced coffee, which made me a happy camper. The guy behind the seafood counter was really nice, as were all of the employees, including the proprietress who definitely knows her business. She also recommended a good family owned sichuan restaurant as she was picking out some vacuum sealed sichuan peppercorns for me.
All told I am overjoyed to have this place in my neighborhood, so I don’t have to schlep out to someplace else on the train.
Just FYI, there’s a bit of a smell when you walk in, but that is natural given that there is a butcher AND a seafood counter in the same relatively confined space. But like anything, you get used to it quickly and it certainly isn’t a sign of poor sanitation. The meat I had from here was fresh as could be and I’m looking forward to buying some porgie next time I go!

This store provides my fav Chinese veggie and fruit and dim sums. But the decoration and shelf setting had a serious problem and need to be improved! Inside was not that small but it didn’t contain too much grocery. I think the storefront should be redecorated and renovated to hold more shelf and food.

This is a good chinese place to go when i need to buy small groceries instead of going all the way Flushing. Im happy i found this place, i usually buy their shrimp w/​head, salmon, bean sprouts, spring rolls/​eggroll wrappers.

It’s good to have an affordable Chinese supermarket in the Rego Park/​Forest Hills area — this saves a trip to Elmhurst. BUT, I don’t think the selection here is that great, especially when it comes to the ice cream and popsicles. This place frequently runs out of red bean popsicles and about last summer they stopped carrying the assorted mochi that I like (but can still get in Elmhurst).
Overall, though, the prices are OK, especially for the noodles and frozen seafood. Customer service isn’t that great though. The cashiers tend to be pretty matter-​of-​fact, verging on rude, especially around 5 – 7 PM on weekdays when people are flooding into the store after their work, and lines get messy with lots of people trying to cut.

This place is great!
I am still learning my way around all of the various things they sell, but for the things I tried (and can’t find anywhere else), it’s amazing: 1) I found this particular type of candy I can’t find anywhere else, they have a very diverse selection of candy and sweets; 2) the wasabi peas are great and authentic; 3) the SEAFOOD smells and looks fresh, and it had the best priced fresh calamari I have ever seen! 4) a lot of their frozen food is great as well, such as dumplings and pork buns.
In all, I am very happy to have found this place and love coming here!

Since moving to FH, it’s been very inconvenient for me to go grocery shopping, especially since I don’t have a car. I really don’t like the markets by the Elmhurst stop on the M/​R and the Great Wall on QB is just too far to walk and too much of a hassle to take the bus.
Luckily, I found J B. It’s close enough to the M/​R station on 63^rd. I have to admit, through the pictures and what I’ve been accustomed to, I expected this Chinese supermarket to be much bigger. The size of the market was a little intimidating and my hopes plummeted once I saw it in person. But whatevs, I’m here, I’ll check it out, and whoa, pleasantly surprised.
All the food was fresh and decently priced. I found packages of the fresh rice (phở) noodles that I normally can’t find. All the meat and seafood looked and smelled fresh. The veggies were brightly green.
Although the aisles were closely packed and the selections are limited due to the size, I found it a bit refreshing. The limited selections won’t have you standing there for 5 mins wondering which brand to choose. You can find everything you need here.

So cute! I love this place. I’m so grateful I live two blocks away. They have everything you need for cooking Chinese food, including fresh vegetables, fruit, meat and seafood. If you’re new to Asian food, try going to the back, where they stock all kinds of sauces, kits, etc. The staff are also very friendly.

Classic Chinese Seafood Supermarket. From the outside this place looks a bit intimidating and crazy, and when you walk in, it feels a bit intimidating and crazy, especially, when the men behind the seafood counter are shouting at each other in Chinese.
That said, this place rocks. It was my go-​to place for fresh, well-​priced fish when I lived in Rego Park. I used to love their orange roughy (they spelled it orange ruffy). Also, because of all the Asian products they carry, I found myself trying out new Asian recipes I’d never considered before.

It’s a great little Asian supermarket with basics if you need Asian groceries (Chinese sauces, Thai curry in a can, etc.), snacks, frozen seaweed salad, Asian ice cream, dumplings and gyoza.
But be weary of the meats on the right hand corner (shrink-​wrapped, styrofoam).
Unfortunately, I had severe food poisoning from their packaged chicken and it just looked mushy, and didn’t have a «gone bad smell» yet. The butcher and fish section seems okay – I haven’t had problems. The frozen stuff seems fine too. But this was the first time I grabbed shrink-​wrapped meat from there and got really sick.

This is a nice little Seafood/​Asian market if you live near the 63^rd Drive station. Don’t discount it from the way it looks on the outside. They actually fit quite a bit of Asian groceries inside. snacks, canned goods, sauces, vegetables, and of course fresh seafood. I used to buy rice and tofu here. Although if you need to buy fruits and vegetables the 2 fruit stands along the street are a lot better in terms of quality and quantity.

There’s no Chinese supermarket near me in Astoria and when I’m not going to Chinatown or Flushing anytime soon, I come here since it’s on the way to my bf’s house via the Q38 to Middle Village.
This place specializes in seafood and you will see a lot of people at the seafood counter, Russians, Chinese, etc. This place has the basics, fish sauce, oyster sauce, duck eggs, jung, chili paste, shrimp chips, noodles etc. They also have some Chinese vegetables, a meat section and lop churn and Chinese sausage.
I think the credid card minimum is $ 15 or $ 20. This place carries a lot of Chinese goods for a small supermarket although you might have to go somewhere else for something specific.

It’s nice to have a chinese supermarket within walking distance of my house. They have fresh meat, seafood, and vegetables which is good since I don’t trust the ones from the local supermarkets. They also carry products like shrimp paste, fish sauce, soy sauce, ect…
