Golden Harvest Foods: Reviews & Ratings
I love that its always busy. I like all the produce they have and generally the produce is a bit cheaper but better quality than regular grocery stores. I always love to see what they have because I actually really enjoy trying different things and cuts of meat. Love this place.
This is a very nice grocery store, well organize and customer service is great. They are fully staffed with stockers, poultry workers, cooks, and cashiers. To me, this is the Lunds and Byerly of Hmong store. Their shelf's are fully stocked and organized and it's easy to find stuff in the store. Their vegetables and food items are a little pricier in compares to other store in the community. I like their pho section because they have all the stuffs you need right there for making pho. The deli is good, and they do cater. They're reasonable, generous in the portion of the orders. Girls are good and I heard that their fried chickens are also good but I haven't tried yet. The store is nice and clean.
Nice grocery store with all the selection of a Hmong family needs. Wished they bring back the papaya tho. The only con is their price is a bit higher then surrounding stores. Employees are nice as well.
Great, kind staff. Occasionally, they have a greeter at the entry way of the store! They have a box of produce too old for sale, free for the taking for those in need of extra food. Such a thoughtful idea. I can tell that the owners, managers, and employees take great pride in the East Side community. The deli food is the best - I recommend the egg rolls, zing wings, and tricolor. The remodeling is looking really nice- keep up the great work.
Great clean grocery store where I can make purchases with some peace of mind unlike some of the other local Asian grocery stores. The deli isnt quite fully functioning as they are working out the kinks and eggrolls seem to taste different on various days. I do give them benefit of the doubt since the deli is always busy and they've only been re opened for 2 months.
We always love eating their papaya salad until today.....other wise everything is fine... But sometimes thing cost too much...
This grocery/deli is a great stop on the Eastside for groceries or a delicious meal midday... I'd say I get lunch here once a week! As far as grocery stores go, it obviously has choice Asian groceries but also recently expanded and is now a place where you can get all your favorite American snacks too. One thing I recently noticed is that they have LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE BEVERAGE OPTION IN THE WORLD. Seriously.. their drink section is an endless array of every kind of soda, water, energy, coffee, herbal, coconut, juice, etc., that ever existed. It's quite impressive. What I really go for is the deli in back. They make REALLY delicious Pad Thai and sell them in to-go containers in the back. So for the unbelievably cheap price of $3.99, I can take out an enormous portion of incredibly tasty pad thai. It's definitely worth trying, and I've been known to make it last for 2 meals, and at that price tag, that's a thrifty day's worth of eating!!! BONUS: For some reason, and I may be late to the party on this one, some grocery goods are FAR less expensive in Asian markets than in Rainbow or Cub, etc. For example, I buy some veggies and all my GINGER here, and it's identical to the kinds that cost more at other groceries. Weird, but a cool trick I've learned.
