“ Small in a retail footprint but large in selections. I'm sure anyone could find what they need in a conveniently laid out store plan. I was surprised at the various brands available for certain items, whereas the big better known place in So Mpls does not carry. Check the drink cooler for a wide selection of bubble tea and other beverages, oh and no Mountain Dew btw. There is parking in the back and along the side street. Owner is friendly and helpful and prices are reasonable for a smaller store. ”

“ The owner/staff are super awesome and the place is well organised and stocked. Highly recommend. ”

“ The best Asian market ever omg. They had all the ramen I was looking for and just everything over all. ”

“ Wonderful experience here at Kim's! First thing that is really amazing is obviously the selection, I could wander that store forever and not get bored, so much much! The service is as you would expect, people helping you if you need it, and so on. There is also a Korean restaurant inside too! The food looks good but I didn't try it. Also, amazing selection of dishes, I will definitely be back to buy some of them. I found everything I wanted at Kim's plus a lot more, it's great to know we have such a great, well stocked Asian grocer around our area, thanks Kim's! ”

“ I absolutely love that there is a solid Korean/Asian grocery right off my bus line. Kim's is small but mighty. There's a lot packed into that petite store! Everything I've needed for Korean recipes I've been able to find here. I also love the containers of banchan in the refrigerated section by the counter. I always get packets of dried radish and dried squid. Mmmmm...and I love how they wrap them separately so they don't spill or make a mess. Such a nice touch. Also love that they have cuts of pork and beef that are mainly used in Asian cooking. It's impossibly for me to find thinly sliced pork belly at any non-Asian grocer so it's great to have Kim's so conveniently located. The owners are lovely and very helpful. I've spent over a half hour just wandering the small space, looking at all the options. They've never bothered me and are happy to answer questions. Highly recommend stopping in even if you aren't super familiar with Korean food. Everyone needs a jar of kimchi in their fridge. ”

“ Kim's carries some things United Noodle does not. And they don't rearrange the layout every few months so finding what you want isn't magical mystery tour. ”

“ Nice Korean basics! Closes early so be aware of what time u go! Also some noodles were close to expiring so watch out for that but overall pretty convenient store! ”

“ My friend had told me this was the first Korean market in the area and though it is small, it has everything you need. They even ship banchans from Korea and have products like Nature Republic in the store. Prices seem very reasonable and owner is super friendly! ”

“ Kim's is my favorite of the few places to get Korean products in the Twin Cities. The shop is fairly small with only about four aisles but they have a pretty good variety when it comes to Asian sauces, noodles and frozen food- they are definitely able to put a lot of products out in such a small place. There are some produce but there isn't much options and sometimes I found them being not the best quality. What I love most about Kim's is the Korean noodles sections, drinks sections and ice cream sections. It's one of the few places in the cities that sells binngrae samanco, the Korean ice cream sandwich in a space of a fish filled with vanilla ice cream and sweet red bean- SO GOOD! Overall items I've purchased here were good but there was a couple times where items here were overdue or very close to being overdue, so I recommend checking the expiration due before buying. Usually when I come here it's a old Korean couple, who I'm guessing are the owners, they are generally always nice and willing to answer questions. As for parking, there is a very small parking lot in the back but since it's on a corner, I never had issues finding street parking. Make sure to bring cash if you're only planning to buy a few items will be, as the minimum card transaction is $10. What I do miss about Kim's that I dont think they do anymore is the deli food they used to have at the front ONLY on weekends, it was usually japchae (Korean glass noodles) and kimbap (Korean sushi) to go. Hopefully they will bring that back post-covid! They do close pretty early too, so be sure to check out their hours before going! ”

“ This is my go-to Korean grocery in town. It's the most convenient for me to get to after work but I'd come out of my way here anyway since they have my fav kimchi (orange label). The Twin Cities actually have quite a few Asian groceries but not many solely Korean ones and the ones we do have are more in the suburbs & they make their own kimchi which is so-so. While this is no H Mart (where there are kimchi buffets for goodness sakes!!!), you can at least get all your basic Korean supplies at Kim's, plus they even have frozen karlbi meat that is cut the right way for at-home grilling! My usual haul includes kimchi, mandu, rice, Korean pear & melon, noodles, fish cake, mung bean sprouts, rice cakes, & pickled radish side dishes. I usually spend between $50-80 each time but it's worth it. Overall suggestions: Salty snack pick: Get that large bag that has a really ugly pic of a shimp on it! It's salty & is soooo addictive. Dessert pick: So many options! Get the mochi ice cream or Korean melon popsicle or icecream shaped like a fish that doesn't actually taste like fish (just cute). Also I think I lived one summer off of choco-pies. Those ind. wrapped cakes are a good bet too. Produce: Make sure to examine the veggies & fruits closely beforehand because sometimes it sits for a while. I'm a regular customer at Kim's because other Asian stores have a very limited Korean section & you won't find some of the Korean produce at other Asian stores. Since I go here so often, maybe I'll see you at Kim's! ”
