Asiatown

I had a cultural Saturday as I toured the Italian grocery store and afterwards went to Asian Towne Center. It was so nice to see so many different types of food, live crab and fresh fish.

All Asian with some cool stores and restaurants. The "mall's few stores have trinkets, "silk" clothing, Mah Jongg boards and lots of tea cups, one with Maj Jongg tile pictures on it. Incense, knives, Samuria swords, toys, beautiful Chinese decorating pieces and paintings are included. There's something for everyone, or that person who is hard to buy for. Fun place. Check out the restaurants. Li Wah is one of two authentic Chinese restaurants in Cleveland, we were told. It's very nice. We had Dim Sum. There's also an Asian pharmacy. Two stories. Parking lots are in front and rear of building. Wheelchair accessible.

Not to be confused with the Aegean Town Center, which is probably on some Greek Island. This is a pretty awesome mall with Vietnamese food and huge Chinese grocery store inside and all sorts of other great things. My experience inside Asia Food Co was rotting veggies, nice service, and excellent Hong Kong Milk Teas from the back. Elsewhere there's a good Banh Mi and a lot of other stores. I wish this place was a little busier though.

The sad Asian marketplace here at Cleveland. Guess that's what happens when you're in a city with a small Asian population outside of the university area. The market has a surprisingly great selection of canned milk teas and Asian pre-prepared food, but I wouldn't recommend bothering with the produce section. Well unless you want a ton of canned food in preparation for a zombie apocalypse. I bought a canned milk tea and some other non-perishable goods. I tried taking a gander at the produce section, but I left empty-handed and mildly disgusted. Specifically at the sad excuse of green onion sitting in the fridge. I was pleasantly surprised by the canned milk tea. I wish I kept the brand in mind. The Asian baked goods were decent too. Some of the items were on sale, but I believe that's because they were old and hard. Though I found some bamboo leaves sticky rice that were absolutely delicious and cheap. They had all the goodies stuffed inside: red bean, walnut, egg yolk, etc. Parking is not a problem. Unless you come during a weekend afternoon. Asian Town Center would then be suddenly packed with old Asians coming out of their hiding place at Cleveland for some dim sum at Li Wah nearby.

There is a hidden gem inside the local supermarket, there is a mini restaurant inside the grocery store when it's open, if you're in the market for Asian food, I'd recommend checking this little hidden gem out . There is plenty of party, and there is classes that you can take upstairs

Hungry and armed with not nearly enough hands to hold all the goodies, we browsed the store for a good long while. Sure the pproduce looked a bit medocre, but the shelf stable food was fairly priced and all looked so good. Had to stifle ourselves as to not buy one of everything from the snack section. They don't take low amounts on credit card, but bring cash. It is worth it.

Amazing hidden gems! You have to look.. if you want to know the secret.. go straight back to the far right in the grocery store. All the way in the back.. There you can get many asian hot foods .. including my fave.. fresh hot sesame balls! Filled with every filling under the sun!! Omg!! It's a secret.. probably only the locals know.. there's even tables to eat right there!

Asian Town Center is great. I have been to the building on various occasions to eat at Miega or Ninh Kieu. This weekend I attended the Chinese New Year celebration to kick off the Year of the Horse. The Kwan Family Lion Dance was spectacular. It was fun to place the money into the lion's mouth and hope for some good luck in return. Ethnic festivals and traditions are always fun to be a part of. The Chinese New Year celebration is a great mid-winter festivity.

An upscale Asian mall in Cleveland's Asiatown on E. 38th Street between Superior & Payne Avenues. It's anchored by a grocery store Asia Food Co. and has two restaurants; Miega Korean BBQ, and Pho Ha Nam (Vietnamese). They also have a Chinese herbal store Bai Wei which offers free Tai Chi sessions (Sundays at 3:30-5 p.m.), a nail supply store on the first floor. Besides the Korean restaurant upstairs, there are a few art galleries, Negative Space, Viva Dance Studio, Cleveland Aikikai, and the International Community Health Center.

The grocery store is great! Large selection of Asian foods (mainly Chinese brands, but some assorted imports from other Asian countries as well). Great selection of instant noodles and frozen foods, a decent amount of produce. It was super cheap, I got 4 large bags full of groceries for around $70. Unfortunately the rest of the little mall is pretty run down and there's not much there; I went on a Tuesday afternoon and most of the shops were either vacant or closed for the day.

From the outside this place can be a little daunting and looks somewhat small but that is not the case at all. This place is roomy and pretty clean on the inside. There's several stores in here including a restaurant, martial arts, dance studio, nail salon, herb store, beauty parlor, and grocery store. I came early during the day so most of the stores weren't open yet except for the grocery store. There is another similar grocery store just down the road call Park To Shop which is more crowded and dirty. The only negative I really had to say about this specific store was the layout and how things were placed. It would be really hard to find specific ingredients here if you don't know the layout. I found the aisles to be more spacious but lacked variety. There also was a 'fresh' fish tank in the back with Tilapia in it. Boy was it dirty. You can also find prepared duck and other Asian meat specialties here that you can't find at any other market in Cleveland. This mall has lots of potential and you can tell they are trying. I will be back again. (note: Their Facebook page says permanently close which is not the case. I'm not sure why?)

Wow I just read other reviews and couldn't believe what I was reading. This place is not clean or upscale like others have said. It is an empty dilapidated small mall. Fountains are empty and floor tile is broken in places. Grocery store smells like raw sewage and seafood area is very dirty. Live food is in disgusting conditions. There is another Asian market in town that is clean and carries more products that I 100% recommend over this place.

I came here during rush hour on a Weds. It's a ghost town. Maybe I came at the wrong time? It looks like a lot of the businesses just gave up on trying to make it look like an open business. The pond is dry, there are remnants of attempted construction, there's just nothing here unless you are interested in a dance studio, a steampunk art gallery, martial arts, Korean cuisine, or are going old school and are planning on booking a trip through a travel agency. The grocery store has sad looking food sitting on the shelves. The plaza down the street is more lively.

I see what you're trying to do here Cleveland and I like it. Coming from San Francisco and being half Chinese myself I really enjoyed seeing Asian Town. I wish it was larger and they had more things. I love that the building is an old warehouse. Really awesome inside. There's parking right outside and the lot looked full but we were able to find a spot. I think a in a few more years this place will be awesome and an up incoming neighborhood. Well lets hope for the sake of Asian Town and Cleveland.

Plenty of parking. Very clean. The architecture is interesting - - I like the upstairs a lot. The galleries which feature contemporary art, are a nice touch. The coffee shop is very hip. PLUS there are 2 restaurants, a massive Asian grocery store and multiple Asian import shops. Side note - very nice and clean bathrooms. I will gladly return again and again!

Love this place. The grocery store is huge. Fresh produce and fresh frogs. I've always wondered where I could score some fresh live frogs. I wonder no more.

I have to say I enjoy Asian Town Center. I have not had any issues. There is a nice little restaurant in the back. Today I tried the bbq pork plater. Came with bbq pork with rice pickled carrot and daikon radish and some sort of green vegetable. I paid just a little over $8. Placed my order they told me to pick out a table and a nice lady brought my food 10 minutes later.She offered me tea but I brought water not much of a tea drinker.I also have enjoyed there freshly made bah mi sandwiches they make throughout out the day.The have a nice amount of pastry items.Very nice grocery store Some things in the freezer are freezer burned but they are things like fish balls and meat balls things I would not purchase. I get my big bottles of hoison sauce there as well as 5 spice bah mi and what ever else I can find including my thai basil and bean sprouts for when I make pho at home.I tend to find kool things to try like hot chilli oils and different kinds of curry and sauce. I'll give a full rating as it's better the cam asia in warrensville hts not saying I don't like cam I just find the drive to be easier from lake county. Of course check all your exp dates like you would at any store(I've yet to find something exp here)In my opinion it's hit or miss with workers in regards to speaking/understanding English but ever when a language barrier arises they have been nice to me. I look forward to going back and trying some pho and other dishes from them. Oh I enjoed there bbq pork so much I brought home a pound of it sliced up at $5.99 per lb to snack.

So far I'm liking it. They have Vietnamese restaurant and Korean BBQ restaurant in there I want to try. Definitely going backing to try them out.

An up and coming Asian shopping center in the heart of Asia town. Restaurants are trending from Korean to Vietnamese. Asia food comapany is has been the anchor of this site for a long time. I remember coming with my mom to get the 50lb bag of rice she used for our daily staple. Don't miss the second floor. Artwork fills spaces that are soon to be occupied by other Asian themed stores. For Asian themed celebrations look for a great offering of vendors, entertainment, and a melting pot of culture you won't see anywhere else in Cleveland.

Asian town center is a great place to shop at. There are little Asians over at Cleveland, but the supermarket and shops here make it look comfortable. The supermarket has a huge variety of food and different Asian cuisines like Korean and Chinese. The supermarket manager helped me get a cab because I was new to the place. Thank you if you see this. I would recommend this place for people who want to purchase Asian snacks and foods!

Some shops on the main floor were closed when I went in. Second floor was deserted. Would have to guess that this is mostly a weekend Center. The grocery store on the main floor had plenty of delicacies to choose from

My mom came back food shopping from these super markets. She had brought home lots of Korean Stapel Food and they looked so good! She had wanted either me or my sibling to come along and see this new shopping center that she wanted us to shop at.

One of my favorite places for getting roast duck, and for Chinese pastries. The veggies are also nice and fresh.

Great place to find the types of mushrooms that Dave's just ain't gonna have. I live near San Francisco, so I always appreciate the Asian markets I find in the midwest. This one is super clean. Lots of space and lots items. Veggies, fish, meat, noodles, etc. They have even have hot food and a few tables to sit at. Oh wait. Did I mention the one huge plus over SF...TONS of parking! :)

Bought a bottle of korean BBQ source, and it was expired and the owner refused to exchange. I looked forward to shop there,but the experience was not so good. I wish the people there could be nicer to me when I asked for the return
