Good Deal Oriental Foods

Lots of choices. Bags to bag veggies could be bigger. Only half a stalk of cilantro will fit lol. Like everyone has said, everything's overpriced. That is expected since this is so far away. They also havw bathrooms foe customers only. Good luck. They're okay. Thing I hate the most is the cashier. No greeting, no smiling, no eye contact, no farewell, nothing. I guess that's okay for some folks but that's not how customer service works. Even Hmong folks in Thailand can do better lol. Besides that, everything is fine. :)

They sell hot deli foods like fried chicken, sticky rice, egg rolls, yummy lo mein , pork ribs fresh and hot daily , lots of variety of veggies, fruits,

Nice large store with Hmong food and all other usual Asian grocery store staples. Great produce and prices!

Great variety, great service. They have a deli inside as well.

I would really like to take my time and look around. I'm usually there for the different types of Ramen or thai tea. The fruit and veggies look really good although I haven't bought any (yet). There is also a deli that that I would like to try.

You can also get Samanco ice cream at Good deal instead of going far. 😁

The roast pork is sold at $6.99 a lb. The meat is dry. The steam rolls aren't that great either, sold at $4.99 a pack. The roll itself is thick, I don't like that but others may. Has small meat portion, similar to the ones sold at Hmong Village and not much flavor. All in all, the food is overpriced compared to other Hmong delis, especially for lower quality. The customer service could definitely use some work. There does seem to be a good variety of items.

Always the same few cashiers when I come in to visit. Just shows me how hard these people work and how loyal they are! The food in the deli is only alright to me but I love how they are consistent with the variety of food they have out. Very kind people. Thank you! Generally clean store and always have everything I'm looking for.

Since my local Asian grocery closed, I have started looking for a new place to go for some of the things that I can't get at the grocery store and Farmers Market. This particular location is a bit out of the way for me, but it's easy to find and has its own parking lot, which makes it a fairly painless experience. They have a good selection of everything from produce and meats to pantry items and clothing, and they even have a lot of Hmong items. I am trying Hmong tofu for the first time. The building is a bit dark--there aren't really any windows, but the service is good and the prices reasonable for what is offered.

It's a Hmong grocery store. They have a decent parking lot. The store is like a typical Hmong grocery store. They do have a deli on the side that also caters as well. (They have really good egg rolls and papaya salad.) The only con about this is sometimes they don't check their produce for molds or expire cold drinks. There has been a few times when I got produce/ fried pork grind that had mold on it. Otherwise it's a nice grocery store.

This place is a bit out of the way for me, but whenever I'm in the area, I always try to stop here. There's a good selection of Asian groceries and very fresh produce. The deli also serves up some pretty decent food for great prices! Don't forget to check out there website on how to save your receipts to earn rewards! So awesome!

Parking sucks big time. Its one of the three Asian store located in North Minneapolis. They have the freshest deli food. Always fresh and cook in the morning. Love their egg roll. The food are delicious without a doubt. Store pricy are not too expensive. The store have everything I needed to make all my meals.

I visit every time I get the chance. The problem is that I live in Saint Paul and couldn't visit often. I buy so much food every time I visit. All their foods are very good. I always buy the duck, the pork intestine stew-ish dish, steamed pompon fish, and many desserts. This place is a gem!!! Wish I live closer!!

My favorite place for Asian food whether hot and ready or for groceries . Wished their parking lot was bigger but its decent.

What a great place, within walking distance for people of North Minneapolis. Too often we hear of grocery store deserts, but I think places like this are overlooked as a vital part of the healthy food distribution network. Of course it doesn't have the selection of a Cub Foods, but I don't need to choose from 100 different types of cereal. This place offers what people say is sorely lacking in the community. Fresh produce. Good prices. It sells the staples and it sells nutritious items. It has everything you need to make a good curry and at a price less than what you would pay at Cub, Rainbow or other big box grocery stores. So not only did I get my coconut milk, curry spice, vegetables, I also got a 20 minute walk in this morning! Don't forget about these grocery stores, they are literally dotting our neighborhood and offering good food at a reasonable price.

I've visited neighboring Banana Blossom many times and thought I'd stop in to Good Deal. This place is great if you are looking for ingredients for Asian cooking. I was especially happy with the broad selection of marinades and sauces and popular southeast Asian fruits and vegetables. They also have a few traditional American groceries and general merchandise. I'm glad to have an Asian market with fresh foods here in the Folwell neighborhood. I recommend stopping in.

their deli is great. we love the papaya salad. it has great flavor! they offer a good variety of already made to go food. it's out of the way for us but we've made it there 3-4 times.

It has now been almost seven months since the North Minneapolis tornado. There are still so many houses and businesses shuttered, halted in the rebuilding process because the insurance money ran out, or they were already in foreclosure, or any number of reasons. A great long swath of my neighborhood is largely still blank, treeless, & dotted with giant blue tarps over holes in roofs. Thankfully Good Deal is not one of the casualties. They haven't replaced their sign yet, so you have to know the building, but it's easy to spot the store with the new paint & a nearly constant stream of patrons going in and out. For the prices, Good Deal's selection can't be beat. The store itself is laid out in a sometimes confusing manner, though last time I was there they were changing some things around, so maybe they're working on that. The people have always been friendly and helpful with any questions I have. The produce is fresh, & I love having a place within walking distance that sells bulk rice for less than a dollar per pound. Now I just need to find a wagon to get my 50lb bag home with me. Good Deal is not the biggest Asian grocer in town, & not the best known. But for being so close, so friendly, & yes, also for beating the odds and coming back stronger and better than ever after a very difficult year, they get my seal of approval.
