There’s almost everything you need at a good price. Not much costumer service but there sure is a lot of variety for a store like this.

I see people slamming the meat for color etc. If I’m not mistaken, they grow their own animals and produce. Much of it. I’ve seen them butcher there before renovation. I believe that’s why the prices are so low. That means all the chemicals are not in the meat to preserve it and keep it pretty. You can tell when cooking it, it cooks fast because you’re not cooking all that stuff too. So meats will look brown. Some bloodier than usual. Chicken wings will have the little third piece on it. You can tell in the TASTE. It’s like meat and prices from the 80’s. They import too and have a huge variety of fish etc. I found buying other stuff like canned goods, Mayo etc is high priced so I just go for the meat and produce.

Before they expanded it was always crowded 😑 🙄 Long waiting in lines, terrible. Great fresh produce, sea food, nice selection of rice. Also Check their MEATS, I've seen bad rotten meat. You'll see beggars out on the parking. Becareful of your surroundings in that area. FYI! Since the store expanded their goat meat also went up! Other than that there's a lot of nice house wares and house stuff.

Most of the workers dont seem to understand English, so they cant help you find anything. Yet several of them follow people of color around the store I guess to make sure they aren't stealing. This has happened to me a few times. I will not be going back to this store as this makes me very uncomfortable to spend my money there. The prices have also doubled since last year. If you are of color you will be followed and watched closely. The food isn't always fresh which is why I've had to return rotten meat . Red meats look dark brown with smelly blood this place is awful. Hold on to your receipts incase you have to return rotten meat

No good, stay away. The ginger I bought was soft and mushy. The dill looked like it had been partly frozen. And the ground beef was 100% brown and grey and not even slightly red like it should be. Shop at your own risk. You’ll have the trots for a week. Your toilet will thank me. Note the date of the meat. Today is 11/12/21.

They need to work better on their customer service. Most of the cashiers act like they don’t want to be there. There are so many long lines because there’s only 1 or 2 cashiers serving 20+ people. And there’s a bad smell that makes shopping in there very unpleasant. Sun Foods management really needs to amp up their game in that department 😡

The old Sun Foods was across the street in a much smaller building. So this store definitely smells like a southeast Asian market (prefer Japanese or Korean tbh) and they have a huge variety of SE Asian style vegetables, seafood n meats (ok, animal parts). See my pics. Maybe too many items to keep track of, which may cause the general smell. They should get a HVAC tech in there to check the ventilation too. Anyway, employees may appear like cute young ladies but didn’t seem particularly friendly or knowledgeable. Regarding safety - may not want to navigate the parking lot alone, after dark.

Sun Foods is an Asian Oriental Supermarket. Since the last time I've been there, it seems they've expanded a lot, which is great because there's more room and varieties of different fresh and frozen items. They have a wide range of seafood as well as meats/poultry. This place also carries a wide variety of rice, noodles and beverages. The only thing I would probably have to complain about is the checkout area because it's small and can easily be crowded; otherwise overall - my visit today was a success. Oh, also - they have a fine jewelry store as well as a hair salon in there.

It’s a bit smelly in the store, but they carry a huge variety of food items and other items as needed. The sun food in Brooklyn Park is definitely a lot bigger but for a central location this one is not too bad either. We at able to get lots of Asian vegetables that we were looking for. They specially carry the sweet tamarind which is absolutely delish as a snack and super healthy as well. It reminds me of home every time I get that box.

This is one of the Asian Store that I go to in this area, I love the varieties of fruits and vegetables! I had a very fresh rambutan in a very good deal today! So good!! Our one stop shop for cooked luncheon too! I love their papaya salad and they have a red rice, love it!
