Reviews of Hau Hau Market

pragnesh “z space”

This is where local Asian restaurant owners shop daily during morning hours to pick fresh produce of the day. It’s no super market where produce is refrigerated and misted every few hours. Here one gets fresh pick from the boxes the produce is shipped in. Not all produce is of highest quality. Generally it’s hard to find fresh firm eggplant or peppers or cauliflower. Quality perhaps is not of grade A. Price do match the product quality. Fresh mangoes and other fruits in season are reasonably priced. One can find a variety of produce that generally are not stocked in local grocery stores. Worth a visit to explore? Yes, if one haven’t been here. It’s worth the time that generally gets rewarded by cost savings. All cashiers are friendly, prompt and courteous.

Jenn C

Covid lessened the fresh fruit we usually see there pre covid. But still great for adain staples

Gina Ciulla-Bentley

The freshest seafood around and actually have gulf coast blue crabs..

Gilda Fulco

First time there! Great prices and selection of all things Asian foods! Lady in seafood department very unpleasant! Clearly ignored me for a few minutes until I finally dared asking to order something! I got two pounds of shrimp, and she virtually slammed it on the corner of counter with a loud 'Here! ' I am all for showing my support for Asian businesses. But I hope to have a better experience next time! Cashier was very friendly! ✌

Kehinde Alokolaro

Good place to buy fresh vegetables and meats that are rare to find in big name super stores. They have items that are imported from Asia,and tropical areas of the world Find Asian sauces and spices here.

Andrew Hoang

This place is legit, I wish it was bigger but it had what is expect from a Chinese, southeast Asian supermarket. And then prices are darn good

Lim Tang

It a good place to shop grocery everythings just one place

Jimmy

The price is cheaper than other Asian supermarkets!

Serina Hsu

It's a good little Asian grocery store, the prices are good compared to most. The building it's self is rather rough, but it worth over looking cosmetic things. They have acceptable quality vegetables but no organic veggies. They also have parking which is great but tight spaces.

Amanda Li

Good market with lots of fresh fruit and produce and meats. Hood selection of Asian sauces as well as frozen packaged foods. But no customer service and staff at check out very stoic... NO help offered for any requests. Reasonable pricing.

Joshua Kelly

So many things u can't find at other Asian grocery stores hands down cheapest produce I love this store they have chicken satay packets no miss no fuss. Chicken heart and liver sold here for a very reasonable price great that there is always parking but this is a gem it's the aldis or Asian supermarkets and I basically only shop here now bo ebt and 10 or more to use a card its harder then you think with these amazing prices

Joanne Li

I like the selection and price here. The fruits and veggies are reasonably price and fresher then most markets. For a while they took cash only but now they can take visa cards too. But as an effort to keep the prices low they appreciate it more if you'd pay in cash. The building is older so it can deter some people from stepping in. I would say get over the atmosphere and you will find great groceries! highly recommend just come with an open mind. :)

Mark Katon

This place is pretty amazing! They have a huge selection of vegetables and if you are a fan of asian butcher cuts, the meat here is of the freshest quality. This place is always a part of my weekly shopping rounds around the Little Saigon and International District. Expect to leave this place with a couple heavy bags for around $30, which is quite the deal living in this very expensive city!

Ryan Jew

Probably the best prices for Asian ingredients that I can find in the Seattle region. Meat is dirt cheap and not questionable at all. There's a wide variety of vegetables that you can pick out.

Steve Buckley

Great place for Asian groceries, but the streets around it are lawless, and after the city replaced a right hand turn lane with a new "bike lane" going up King St onto 12 Ave S., the congestion is intolerable. Sadly, we now primarily go for our Asian shopping in Burien or South Center.

David W

Well, you do get free parking across the street and parking garage below, which is much better than trying to find street parking in Chinatown. That said, this place does have a OK selection of goods but does not carry a wide selection of brands. Basically the necessity of daily grocery and not too much specialty items. Lots of food item in its parking lot which acts as part of the store. Prices are low but not as clean as can be. Very typical Asian grocery store atmosphere.

Vincent S

I've been driving past this market for decades, but finally got the chance to stop and go shopping. I was not disappointed. These folks have just about everything an Asian Market should. There's an extensive selection of fresh produce on the exterior which does not disappoint. Inside, you can find anything from seafood, to incence, to deserts. Their canned/ bottle selection of sauces, brinned fruit and such is tough to beat. The prices are fair and the staff is friendly in this bustling, decidedly foreign market. If you have an adventurous attitude towards expanding your culinary palette, this is one place I highly recommend.

Ninja Girl

Lots of fresh vegetables and fruits which locate outside under a big covered area. Reasonable prices. I went inside the floor and between the aisles are clean and neatly stocked. I came to this store in the freezing cold, the people were working to keep inside and outside clean and neatly stocked.

Jason Yee

It's truly an Asian produce market. Open air produce crates, open air butcher in the back, etc. It can be crowded in the weekend when most Asians do their grocery shopping. Floor cleanliness isn't a priority. The entire layout is fairly cramped. But at the end of the day, the produce is fairly inexpensive!

Danny Maiorani

I've been looking for a couple things at local bigger name Asian Markets like Hmart and Uwajimaya for a while and finally found it here. Some of the things are only in Asian Languages on the products. But if you're looking for something random you'll find it here I think. Prices are awesome. I'll be back for sure.

Kevin Yang

Inexpensive and unpretentious Asian grocery market. Most of the produce you pick it straight out of the box it came in. Leafy veggies are refrigerated, however. The quality of the produce might not be the best, but the prices are hard to beat! Usually come here to get bok choy for great prices. Easy access to bus stops, First Hill streetcar. There's also an underground parking structure.

Jonathan Harris

Great prices on quality fresh vegetables here. This is a Vietnamese market so you can also load up on Vietnamese sauces and other ingredients. Also has a good fresh fish selection. Parking is tight but there is a small free garage around the corner on King Street that you can use for 1 hour.

Rick Hoang

This is a very tight and cramped store. The aisles are so small and hard to maneuver through. Most people just leave there carts and walk into the aisles to grab what they need. But then all the carts create a blockade and everything comes to a standstill. The produce is fresh and so are the meats. Prices are low and competitive. The parking in the garage is scary tight. If you own a nice car park at your own risk. The chances that you come back and find a door ding or scratches on your car is high. If at all possible I would recommend finding street parking.

Jen H.

Wide variety of western and Asian produce (not organic). Prices are not as competitive with other similar nearby markets and quality is so so depending on what item it is. They do have garage parking available.

Tariq Mufti

At the edge of the International District is this unpretentious 7 days a week market for all your grocery shopping, all more than 20% cheaper than at your fancy supermarket chains. A canopy covers a courtyard with dozens of crates of fresh produce, and the main hall has counters for fresh and frozen poultry, meat and seafood. As befits an Asian market, there are organ meats and offal aplenty. More than adequate parking in the underground garage you discover on the side street. More than novelty, more than value for money.

Mike Rothwell

They have this yellow (not Golden) kiwi. Not furry on outside. Buy them firmer than usual. Best kiwi I've ever tasted. Like kiwi plus cotton candy plus bubble gum. Very hard to explain but everybody I've given some to has been blown away. Good prices too.

Natalia Bearden

Great prices, better than at the regular grocery store, or some other Oriental markets. Prepare to be aware though, some produce needs to be picked/sorted through... But a very good value.

Herakles Li

Hau Hau market is one of many grocery stores in the international district and probably one of the best if you are looking for cheap prices. While they focus primarily on vietnamese food products you can expect to find a lot of general asian pantry staples as well as some western items.

Villa Rocas

Reasonable prices. Sometimes you need to check to make sure the packaged foods are not made in China. Although packaged in California but doesn't mean they are not from China. Fake and unhealthy stuff

Leo Lu

The price is insane low, the quality of the fresh product is acceptable, not very comfortable to shop if you go at high peak times tho. Consider the price, I have no complaints, this place literally saves my life.

Julie Xiong

One of the lower end Asian grocery stores. Not the cleanest. However, price is decent and veggies are often fresh. Best part about this is there's a parking garage!

Connie So

Fresh Asian veggies at affordable prices. Much more authentic than "mainstream" stores selling pricier and inferior products. But selection is a bit limited.

Monet Kumazawa

Love of my expensive Seattle life. So affordable, sometimes you have to dig around for prices but you really can't beat the cheap prices of their seasonal produce.

Minh Nguyen

Everybody i know shop here and at Lam's seafood for decades. Prices here are lower than at Lam's seafood. They kind of have to be on order to remain competitive ever since they were banned from accepting EBT (foodstamps). Anyway, this place gets a five star for varieties and low prices.

Nicole Eng-Pierson

When we are Seattle we have to go the International District and go Hau Hau's. And totally stock up. Prices in Olympia are so expensive. This market is great. And easy to find. And a bonus the have their own garage.

Youran Fu

The layout is a little messy, especially the check out lines and it's kinda hard to move around with a cart. Assortment is OK but not great. The only reason I'd go again is for its location - only 2 miles from SLU. In the future, I might just rent a car and go to the Asian food center up north that's about 7 miles away from SLU...

Serina Gee

Holy moly this place is amazing. Lots of cheap goodies all laid out, you just gotta fight your way through the mob of tiny Asian ladies (and men). It's basically an upgraded expanded version of your local tiny, pungent, Chinatown grocery store. Also everyone shopping here is Chinese or some kinda Asian.

Jaime Espinoza

Great prices on fresh herbs and fresh fruit/vegetables. You might have to choose the best ones out, but wayyy better value then QFC.

Vics

Don't expect cleanliness when you come here. Expect awesome prices and a great selection of Asian market goods! I don't mind the dirty, it's all about the value here.

Douglas Gilbert

There is nothing fancy about this grocery store. However, they have good prices on Chinese food which is why we visit. They are always busy and checkout lines are long.

Sophia Green

The prices at this market are literally half the price at any other major brand market in the area. I drive here from Lakewood to get fruits and vegetables. Love this place!

KHZ

Edit! BECAREFUL USING YOUR CREDIT CARD!!! I think their credit card machine is hacked and they don't know it. Alot of time we use their machines will cause fraudulent activity on your credit card transactions. Use cash instead. Crowed and gross bathroom but nice selections gotta go early or they run out fast!

James Leung

Vegetables here are usually very fresh, choices are abundant and at very good price. It is usually very crowded. I shop early morning, or early afternoon.

Jaime Calvillo

Lots of produce and a good selection of asian grocery items but they do not take EBT. Why? Not sure. Most other asian markets near them do!

Jennifer Lee

This place is great for Asian veggies and imperfect but very inexpensive produce.

Richard Tang

There is a wide range of vegetation selection at very inexpensive price points. Very worth checking out if you need cheap Asian groceries.

brandon Seattle

Excellent place to get fresh produce. So many varieties of asian food. Friendly staff and helpful. One of the best asian markets in Seattle area.

melissa Byk

I love this market. Fresh vegetables fruits very cheap. I also can buy speciality meats for my dogs.

王洋

Does everyone if it's closed or not? Last Sunday we went there, and it was closed. Is it a temporary close or permanent? Please no, this is my favorite store. 😢 …

Qween B King-Rios

Great store for fresh fish. Too small though. Not enough room for disabled shoppers.

Luis R Castro

cheaper option, expected better brands for oyster sauce. Those were too commercial. Still you can find some good stuff.

René Wagner

Amazing fruit, vegetable and seafood market! Staff is very friendly and the produce is of high quality! A++ can recommend!

Hanhan AI (Simplehappiness12)

Accept all major credit cards and great prices! Just don't expect to be sparkling clean then you will enjoy it a lot more

Naresh Bhatt

Like Oriental style of grocery and produces. Then price is cheap and many varieties offered. I go there once in a while of fetch dikon, ginger, opu and singwah

Betty Van Do

Good prices. Limited on products. Sometimes I couldn't find what I came for. (I mean other Asian markets would have it but not here)

Josh Chan

It's a quintessential Asian market. Looks and smells sketchy but great meat prices and produce selection.

Eric Wenzel

Busy. Good selection. Bad crowd outside.
