Ha Tien Super Market

The pastries are good!! Would def return if only I wasn't across the city. Will try to when I can. Also they only make bahn mis at certain times now. Arrived at 5:30pm hoping they could custom make some fresh for us but they were already sold out & done cleaning up the deli. I'd say if you are stopping for Deli food, don't go once it's past 4:30pm or something. The papaya is not that good.

Great Asian grocery with lots of fresh options, plenty of variety and a decent in-house deli with food made fresh daily. Definitely worth checking out!

What a gem. Came here looking for fresh basil and they had LOTS, of course. And, several types. The produce is amazing. I was excited to find bok choy and mushrooms and so many produce items for great prices and amazing quality. The Asian noodle aisle is huge....such a variety. It will be a regular stop for me to get the fresh fresh greens I look for and can't find or are $$$$ at regular grocery stores!

Trying to find an Asian ingredient or snack or drink or hot foods? This is the place. A super wide range of veggies, fruits, frozen foods, and so much more. From Hot Pot ingredients to the latest Instant Ramen to making your favorite Lao or Korean dish, Ha Tien is where you go to get what you need. The aisles are very well organized and very easy to navigate. While some of the aisles are tight from stocking, it's still easy to navigate through the store. It is ADA accessible. Hot foods are well made. Ha Tien is known for their Bahn Mi sandwiches-to-go. They're decent but if only the price reflected the quality, it would be worth it. But if it's your first time here, give it a try. Plenty of traditional Asian snacks and sweets to fill up your road trip or stomach. This is THE asian grocery store that is a staple in the community. Would highly recommend coming here.

Nice big Asian grocery store that has almost everything. The food court was really unorganized, though. There was a customer who cut in front of everyone and said she was just looking at food but ended up getting helped. The lady helping me disappeared after making my sandwiches even though I told her I might want to buy something else down the lane. The Vietnamese sandwiches we ordered were so soggy. It was so unappetizing. * I have trouble entering my phone number to get points. Waste of time signing up. ***UPDATE*** Throughout the times I've gone to shop here, I've had trouble entering my phone number and would need the physical card. NONE of the cashiers bring up if the customers have a membership card or not. They are all quite rude. None of the cashiers seems friendly as well as none of the workers in the hot food section seem nice. Every time I've gone to get hot food, they just rush you out of there as fast as they can and don't even bother asking if you want anything else. I haven't gone through the whole line of food yet, and they already take my food to the register and leave to help another customer.

It's very clean and organized. This supermarket is big. They have most of Asian items or Mexican items that we need. They meats, fish, seafood, vegetables, fruits,.. are fresh. They also have a deli and milktea shop inside.

My go-to spot for oriental produces and food. A large variety of produce and products. Fresh meat, seafood, vegetables. A wide variety of sauces and spices. Canned goods. A hot lunch bar offers many different flavors and choices. From banh mi, noodles, rice, chicken, pork, egg rolls, spring rolls, to roasted duck and pigs.

They have a lot of great stuff there and the updates make the store more clean and inviting. I love wandering around to see what I can find there! The have a great ready made area where you can purchase things like fried rice, egg rolls, etc.

this is a solid Asian grocery store in the twin cities!!! From fresh produce, seafood, meat, snacks, and more - there's also a hot food bar, bakery, and banh mi deli!! It's also clean, offers spacious parking, and pretty competitive prices compared to other grocery stores in the area! My only wish is that offer more frozen products, it was mainly dumplings/dim sum and ice cream! This will definitely be on my rotation for Asian groceries! Also they offer a free membership card where you can earn points to use towards your groceries!

I love everything about this market! First of all, it's huge. I've grown up visiting Asian grocery stores with my mom my whole life and also visited many Asian grocery stores in other states in the country and this is by far in my opinion the best one in all of MN! There is a big parking lot right in front of the store so you won't need to worry about parking. The deli section is to your right when you walk in and it's so amazing. They have traditional Thai, Laos, Vietnamese, Hmong and Chinese food in their deli section including a hot bar, cold refrigerated section, a Banh mi section and a roasted duck section. Everything looked amazing and clean and well organized. The first time we went there we wanted to buy everything we saw. We got pad Thai, sticky rice dessert, a combo banh mi sandwich, and many other deli products. The deli food products are nice and cheap and the hot bar is so tasty for a non-restaurant location, it tasted like from a restaurant. They also have a small bakery with goods by the checkout area. We only got the egg tart but so good. We walked through the seafood section of the store and they have fresh live fish, crabs, lobster, snails and many more. What I was surprised by is how clean everything was and organized. No bad fishy smell that sometime Asian markets have. The market has a variety of Asian origins of snacks, condiments and frozen foods. Their produce section is amazing also- local grown produce and so fresh and clean. Again, very organized by food types so you don't have to walk around the store everywhere to try to find the ingredients you need. The workers there are friendly and helpful as well, which I appreciate. Overall, I was honestly blown away by how great this gem of a place is.

It's a Deli and Food Market. We love coming here to shop for a majority of things you can't find in a regular grocery store. If you want a Bahn' mi, Peking duck, other options include noodles and fried goodness, head over to the Deli. The service is what you make of it. Some speak good English, some don't. It's a clean store, always busy, amazing selection of chips!

It's a great Asian grocery store! Has meals and also a meat and seafood area. Love the ambiance in the store. Great service as well!

This market has everything! It's clean, fresh, and service is fast! It's awesome! I would always stop by just to get their fast food. So yummy and they fill it up too!

Visited here over the weekend, and was very impressed. It reminds me of larger markets such as HMart and Great Wall in larger cities. Prices are reasonable, space is clean, and there is a robust food court that offers an assortment of mainly Vietnamese / Chinese hot & to-go food. Reminds me of their original location on University but at a grander scale Take a look at Ha Tien the next time you're near the St. Paul / Woodbury area.

Huge market, em came for the Deli food. It was better than a lot of restaurants. The Pad Thai was OK. I'd come here again.

Have been shopping at Ha Tien since they opened. They recently completed upgrades to the store and would say they have become one of the best Asian grocery shopping experiences. They have a great meat & fresh seafood counter. Actually saw frozen wild boar as well. You will be hard pressed not to find what you need here.

Nice market to grab things you need to make dinner or even pick up something to eat from the restaurants they have inside.

Love the steam rolls and fried banana!! The deli is a hit or miss. The workers are rude asf at the deli. Groceries here are like any tower Asian store, nothing special.

The meats are very fresh and clean. Hot food so delicious. Very friendly place. Everything you need for any kind of cuisine is at Ha Tien supermarket.

My favorite supermarket. I love going to the food hot bar and getting multiple items. Also, they remodeled and got new fridges, and everything looks nicely organized. Since the update, I also started to find more variety of foods, like more Korean and desserts.

It reminds me of HMART, I love that we have this here in MN. The only place I will go, even cheaper on Korean products than local Korean stores.

I had driven past the store before, but have never stopped in. My husband and I came with my sister and her family to look around and wander as we were killing some time before a dinner reservation and had to stop ourselves from buying too much on an empty stomach! It was cool to see the different hot foods and drinks available. I was also pleasantly surprised to see how incredibly clean it was, and the amount of variety offered. All of the produce looked very fresh, and the seafood counter did not have the typical fishy smell as is common for Asian markets. The checkout lines were relatively long, but it may have been because we came on a weekend - either way the cashiers were very quick to get everyone on their way. My husband and I also got some bubble tea which was well priced and a great treat as we shopped!

I didn't get a chance to shop here as I was just passing through, but a grocery store that carries all Asian ingredients you could think of and more? Say less! Back hom, I need to travel to all kinds of supermarkets if felt like cooking Korean or Thai etc. This place has it all what a foodie dream. I didn't get to try the hot foods, but they seem like a popular seller for the large portions and affordable pricing! I did manage to snag two bahn mi's and my god those things were massive for the price! If where you live has some strong Asian cuisine I do not recommend the BBQ bahn mi. I had to give it 0/10 because it really was just char siu meat that was diced and not that great. But the Regular bahn Mi is a must!! Stick with the Regular bahn mi for $5.99! They stuff it to the max and it is quite tasty! 10/10

Located on the east side of St Paul you'll find this massive Asian grocer complete with a deli, hot food bar, and freshly made-to-order banh mi. This was my first visit on my way to a movie so stopped in for a little sustenance as I was in a rush and needed something I could car-bang. Rookie mistake as there's always a line here and for good reason -- but this massive banh mi was well worth me being late for my movie and I crushed it in the car in record time. What I ordered: Banh Mi Regular (extra paste) ~ red roast pork * pork loaf * sour pickled daikon and carrot * cucumber * cilantro * jalapeño * mayo * Pâté (paste) * crusty baguette **this sandwich is THICCC and I'll strongly encourage to always go with extra paste. The baguette was a bit crustier than I prefer, but still very tasty. They don't skimp on the jalapeño either so it's nice and balanced**

Very good! My granddaughter loves this one beef pho they sell. Very impressed!!!!!!!!!

Found this hidden gem by accident while I was picking up an order at the Walmart on Robert St in St. Paul. I needed to pick up some ingredients to cook Vietnamese Spicy Noodles Soup and didn't have much time to drive back to Minneapolis to go to Shuang Hur so I did a search for Asian grocery store near me and Ha Tien wasn't too far away. At first, I was a reluctant since I've not been there before and was on a time crunch and so I went ahead and did directions for the Chan Market in Bloomington and then suddenly change course back to Ha Tien. And BOY am I glad I did. This is by far the cleanest, most organized, and wide aisles for shopping and be able to socially distanced during the pandemic. I might have to say that this is my new go to place because I just LOVE their deli! They have all the Vietnamese desserts that I love and my mom makes growing up. Their banh mi is also tasty and reasonably priced. I've been here twice and both times it has been great. I went on a Saturday mid morning my second time and they have way more appetizer treats available like fried banana, taro and sweet potatoes, xoi (coconut sweet sticky rice), purple rice and sausage, Chinese sausage and sticky rice. All so good! Highly recommend this place. I wasn't able to find the milk buns my daughters love but otherwise they have pretty much everything I need. I also love the open bulk of various "dry" produce like ginger, garlic, shallots and potatoes.

For years I had this store confused with another I thought I had checked out once a very long time ago that I was not impressed by. I'm glad I figured my own mix-up out, but sheesh, I've been missing out. This store has everything a self proclaimed master chef of my kitchen needs. I love United Noodles, but they're a hike from where I am when I need Asian groceries, which is a few times a month. Ha Tien is much closer and not only is the store squeaky clean, their selection of products is very impressive. I found sea grapes here...I thought I'd have to go to Japan to ever get a taste. Live blue crab, varieties of tofu, fresh noodles. culantro, persimmons, Chinese chili eggplant dip, papaya salad...they have a deli area and bakery. I want to live inside of this store.

As far as I'm concerned Ha Tien is a great replacement for the Byerly's that used to be at this location. While my visits are generally geared more towards the deli offerings, Ha Tien still has a lot to offer. First and foremost, the deli is great. They have a few different types of banh mi (one of my favorites in the city - grab some extra loaves of bread to take home) and usually around twenty or so hot options that run the gammut from Pad Thai, prawns, orange chicken, Hmong sausage, fried rice, wings, ribs, etc. I haven't had anything I didn't like and the prices are very reasonable. Since this used to be a Byerly's the building has a fairly large footprint, which has been filled with all sorts of goodies that are mostly foreign to me, but fun to explore and try. Their produce is reasonably priced, there is a large meat department and also a bakery pumping out those delicious baguettes, among other items.

Ha Tien is mind blowing in the variety of goods offered. I always enjoy my trips through the store. One suggestion is I needed 5 kaffir lime leaves for my hot and sour soup recipe I made, but the bag with the least amount had about 50 of them in it for $6. I'll post a photo. Please package smaller amounts of them for home cooks. Thank you.

Best Asian market in the area so far, excepting United Noodle for specifically Japanese items. Pretty good prices, great selection, very clean, fresh produce, no smelly fish tanks. The pastry bakery has to be a hidden secret or something; outstanding croissants especially frangipane, not quite to Trung Nam standards but much cheaper and more available. Wanted to check out the deli and banh mi but the line was way long that day. Will be back.

my mom used their service to send money to Vietnam. 15 days later mom sister in Vietnam still hasn't received the money. when ask the husband and wife owners they didn't help but came across super rude. my mom doesn't not drive so it difficult for her to go there but they kept asking her to come back 3 times. finally they refund her the $200 and the wife told my mom never come back here again. lol that is a poor customer service and I wouldn't never ever recommend this place.

Hatien can be very crowded some times. The check out lanes are super narrow. But there's a reason they're so busy. They have some of the best selection of groceries families need. We love their deli foods. You can't go wrong with the bbq pork bahn mi, or hot food selection. Our favorites are the pre packaged vermicelli noodles and spring rolls. From time to time I enjoy their Chinese stir fry sticky rice. Their ready to eat food makes for a delicious and quick meal .

This is my go to Asian super market. It has everything I need. The deli area is my favorite for when I'm too lazy to cook. The Bahn Mi is still one of my favorites. I love the Peking duck and Sesame Balls there. It's always a treat for my kids. There's a new Boba Tea stand there but I've only seen it open a handful of times. The seafood is fresh like always. The produce aisle has all the fruits and veggies I eat on the daily. There's so much to buy. When I'm feeling Pho, there's the entire noodle aisle to explore. When I want Chinese food, there's plenty of ingredients. When I want my homemade Hmong food, I get it from here as well. The spice and condiment aisles are my favorite. I love everything about this supermarket and am so glad its here.

Great market with all the ingredients I needed to cook my Thai and Chinese food. The market was clean, well organized and the staff was friendly.

I appreciate that Ha Tien is ambitious enough to take over the former Lunds Byerlys space off Suburban and significantly expand its deli offerings to utilize the fully established kitchen of its predecessor. The food appears impressive because they offer roasted meats, bakery, sushi, and many hot items all very reasonably priced. I chose to order the $6 meal deal which includes a carb (pad Thai, fried rice, or lo mein) + 2 entrees. More than a single serving so portion wise it's a great deal. But the food doesn't taste that great. The pad Thai flavor falls way short. My 2 meat and veggie selections were so so at best. So in essence, if you're willing to compromise taste for price, then head on over here for one of the best bargain meals in town. If not, then don't order from the hot deal. I want to head back and try their spring rolls - which were sadly sold out when I went.

Everything was great until I came home and opened up my egg tart boxes (bought two) and they were all moldy!! I was so disappointed because I was so excited to try it! Other than that it was a pretty well organized store! Lots of great selections!

Store packed with asian products, fresh produce, bakery, meat and fish department, and cooked food to order and go. Bahn mi are pretty good. They also have roast duck and roast pig.

Ha Tien Super Market is truly a supermarket! They have just about everything you would possibly need. There's dried foods, fresh produce, fresh food, frozen food, a bakery, and household goods. There's full deli and they have asian desserts, which is amazing! The banh mi sandwich are made to order. You can also buy the fixings on the side in containers; by request only. Then pick up the bread, at the bakery. This is great for parties!

Nice place! Huge and has everything. Prices on higher side. Cooked foods and Banh Mi look just okay, but hey it's TC, not OC.

My parents live really close to woodbury and it's never been fun to drive to St. Paul to do our Asian shopping . When I was told Ha Tien bought the old Byerlys and now is a huge Asian market I was excited . This place is really good. Still have a lot of space they can utilize for something but for the main parts of the store it's great! I love their selection of stuff including ramen , dumplings and more . The most important is that it's really clean! Definitely looking forward to coming back here again and again.

Has everything we're usually looking for! Open space and super convenient to get to. Its never been too busy which is great for a quick trip or larger shop.

EDIT: updated for the Deli: I keep debating if I should give this place a 4 or 5 star rating. I think objectively it is a 4. But in my heart, it is a 5. Objectively a 4-star rating: - Once I bought food from the deli and it listed 4 ingredients. When I ate it, it seemed to have 6. One of which was black beans. It was delicious, but weirdly makes me distrust the system. - The Banh Mi roasted pork is my favorite. It's one of the best Banh Mi's I've had, I usually ask for extra jalapenos in mine. Unfortunately, it is not THE best Banh Mi I've ever had. That honor goes to the sadly defunct Bun Mi Sandwiches restaurant on University by the UMN. - Again, it's hard to find things here. Even the employees don't really know where things are. Why is it a 5-star in my heart: - I bought 3 butter bread rolls from the bakery. They looked very good, nice thick crusty outside. They did not disappoint. It is the perfect reason why Banh Mi sandwiches are so great. The inside was fluffy, white, and soft. I *may* have sat in the parking lot, eating it in my car, and opened the door to shake off the crumbs. And as someone who eats bread only 1-3 times a month, I *may* have also been full of dinner and yet, sat in my kitchen and polished off 80% of a second roll before I shamed myself into stopping. - I'm so happy they're here, it is an ethnic food wasteland in the east metro suburbs and Ha Tien was badly needed. I hope they stay in business in this area! - Also, they have an African food aisle, how cool is that? ---- I anxiously awaited their opening for months! For those living in the east metro's suburbs, there are no nearby Asian stores, so the Ha Tien grocery store was a huge benefit. I love the variety of products. I'm so happy I no longer need to drive 20 mins to St Paul to find Asian products. I am not super price conscious, so not sure how they compare in costs. Some things (certain Asian foods) seem more affordable, others (American foods) are more expensive. I usually try to buy my basics at the nearby ALDI, before swinging here. Definitely get your herbs here, mint is so much cheaper at Asian stores compared to Cub or Lunds. It's hard to figure out where everything is located, despite having been here a dozen times. Also it can be difficult finding staff to assist you. Last week I spent 20 minutes struggling to find seaweed paper for sushi. The poor Latino worker had no idea what I was talking about, even when I broke out my fluent Spanish. Compared to other Asian stores, this one is cleaner and smells more neutral. They keep the seafood smells under control. :) Hope that they will get their deli up and running soon! Very excited for that prospect.

I would honestly rate this a three and a half stars. This place is good when you're far from other Asian stores but just a warning though that their products are a bit more expensive even though other Asian stores would sell the same product cheaper. The food at the deli can be bad sometimes too so it's would be a 50/50 chance whether I get a good fresh food or food that went bad :p I wish they would check their overdue foods often This isn't related to my experience but I would like to share anyways for those who are thinking of working here. I know people who work or used to work there would told me that the management is really bad and they get treated very badly often. They treat their Mexican workers nicely more than their Asian workers which made me confused because you should treat every workers there equally instead of being bias especially if it's a diverse work place. I would admit that it would be decent for a beginner job but I wouldn't recommend it

It's pretty good. I used to go to dragon in st Paul for my Asian groceries but I found this place about 2 months ago.. it's clean, well organized, has a good deli section.. it's now our go to place for Asian groceries

This store has improved drastically over the past year or so. It used to be disorganized, cluttered, and rarely a smile at checkout. Now they have a large number of new items in every area, from drinks to deli to frozen to snacks. Stuff is not piled up any more. Today the gal at checkout even smiled during the process :).

Ha Tien Super Market is easily the best place to get Asian goods in the Twin Cities area. My first time here was last week and I plan to be a regular! They have so much space and everything you could possibly imagine to fulfill your grocery needs. I didn't even know where to start when I visited, so I roamed the aisles. I found so many amazing finds while making a loop around the store. Everything was reasonably priced and they have a plentiful supply of goods. I absolutely LOVE their deli/hot foods area. Although their roasted pork appeared a little dry that day, all the other options on the menu looked delicious. They have lo mein noodles, fried rice, pad Thai, steamed buns, egg rolls, banh mi...you name it! Although the banh mi was STUFFED with waaaay too many pickled veggies, the pate and meat in the banh mi were great. I personally would've preferred meatloaf that was sliced in full/large pieces instead of tiny/super thin pieces, but it still tasted fine. The baguette itself was crispy and the perfect size for a filling lunch. Their cashier/paying system was a bit chaotic, but the employees were so kind and as quick as they could be with everyone's orders. For dried goods, they have soy sauce, ramen, spices, etc. They have ramen in packages of 6-10 or a few of the ramen brands have individually sold packets as well. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is their produce/veggies. From what I saw, a lot of the vegetables were not fresh. For example, the entire pile of cucumbers were squishy and about ready to be tossed out. They have a large section of produce and veggies, but the majority of it weren't high-quality/fresh. I would highly recommend their fresh tofu that's right next to the vegetable section though! I just fried up the tofu and it tasted so good! Ha Tien is just what I needed to purchase the majority of groceries I need on a weekly basis. They have a huge parking lot and a big selection, so it's not only affordable, but convenient too!

This place has good seafood and is reasonably priced. The whole store doesn't stink when you walk in.

it has every good food i wanna get thanks two ive been shopping there ever since like 3 yrs now

Ha Tien has recently become a required pit stop when we are in the Twin Cities area. This market has a great variety in products and their deli is our favorite spot for banh mis! They have baked goods, appetizers, entree, dessert items and so much more available in this area, too. Price point is less than where I'm from (Madison WI) and the store hygiene is much better than most Asian markets. Another thing I love is that each restroom stall had a baby seat and sanitary wipes for the toilet seat!

My favorite Asian market, this market smells really good because for one reason mostly Asian markets smells kinda bad, also here they have a lot of Deli choices This market has mostly everything you need. Workers are also nice, place is very clean, easy to find what you need. Keep it up..!!..

Great place! I've been going to Ha Tien since I've been a teenager before they changed locations. They've got competitive prices and a lot of items for families of Asian descent. I wish they would stay open longer.

I have been here several times and found it a venture .. plus the meat products are very fresh/good ..Pat W

I stopped in for the first time to get some baby bok choy and was so glad I did. Fresh section had a great selection of fruits and veggies including bean sprouts, chilis, coconuts, variety of bananas and some exotics like fresh dragon fruit. Prices were really good and I ended up buying more than I needed (was so happy to find fresh miso). Also got a roasted pork banh mi from the deli section. It was delicious and only cost $5.50 which is a steal. Get the extra jalapenos - so good. Staff was really friendly and lines were fast.

Best asian super market in Saint Paul. They have plenty of varieties and the section of food is great. They even have a deli along with fresh viet bakeries. They make one of the best & freshest baguettes in the cities. For sure a great market place if your in the area of east Saint Paul.

The only place I shop for Asian groceries. It's not real far and I usually can find everything I need.

I am so sad to give this review. I was excited when Ha Tien moved in here. Sadly, on our first trip here we discovered that the deli and bakery sections are not open yet. That was okay, so we bought some groceries. Here are the results of our small grocery run: Two of a dozen eggs were cracked on the bottom. The ginger root was so woody and tasteless that it was unusable. Worst of all, a carton of chicken stock actually had the seal broken on it when we unscrewed the cap! The dry noodles and canned coconut milk were fine, but we threw out the frozen food because we didn't trust the quality control after all the other issues. Any grocery store can have issues. But when one has that many in one small purchase, it makes me worry about food safety. I will be shopping elsewhere.
