2020-01-31. So my last review was quite a few years ago, and I just realized that it was on the restaurant inside H Mart and not on H Mart itself. H Mart is a franchise, and this one is a good size compared to others I've been to. It's a Korean grocery chain that specializes in preparing ingredients for Asian dishes. Hot Pot, BBQ, Noodles, and soups. They carry pretty much every ingredient you would need for most Asian dishes of Chinese, Korean, and Japanese cuisine.
I come to this location mainly for their cuts of meat and for their seafood. They carry fresh squid, octopus, sushi grade fishes, and a nice variety of pickled veggies that surpasses the selection found in the larger Chinese/Vietnamese supermarkets in Madison Heights. While their prices are noticeably higher here as well, they take great care and pride in preparing and packaging over it's competitors. This location also carries American Wagyu beef in addition to Black Angus brand.
The store is clean and bright and the aisles are wide enough for two way traffic. The majority of the staff speaks English, but there is a minority where it's not a strong point. If you happen to request help from them, they will seek someone else to help you, so don't be offended. They don't hate you, they just can't communicate well with you. Many Koreans seem to shop here as well, so if you see some foreign product and would like to know what it is, I found that customers were very helpful in reading and interpreting.
H Mart is not the new kid on the scene. I was shopping here before I learned of 168. I was a fan of H Mart then, and I'm still a fan of H Mart now. Like I said earlier, this is my go to place for cuts of meat and seafood, and it will remain so. 4 stars.
In taking a quick peek at their in-store restaurant, I did notice that their menu has changed, so I will need to revisit and re-review sometime in the near future.
