Bangkok Market

Best Asian market in la hands down. I love to cook Thai food and they have everything I need plus recipes to try out. They even sell Boba that I can make at home!!! No more spending 6 bucks for a shake!!! Friendly people work there and they have made my daily life better because I no longer have to go to Thai restaurants to eat how I want to. Love u guys and Bangkok market. I’m a regular.

Bought the sauces and woks there plus noodles rice boc choy lots of good stuff. I buy saricahi there too and all thia peanut sauces. Smell bad near butcher area but not in the main part of store. Good imported salted plums

I used to come here as a kid growing up in L.A. I remember they used to have a lot more groceries back then. Well I re-​visted this place on a Retro-​Visit and was kind of disappointed that they didn’t have a variety of traditional Thai snacks. Although I bought a few items since they did carry some rare items. The staff here are friendly but kind of watch you as you browse isles. Service was friendly and maybe will re-​vist again someday.

Not much fresh produce but still enough dry goods for thai cooking. Would go back only to buy thai stuff for curry and pad thai and so on. Fresh produce = use korean market or whole foods.

Great place to get Thai curry pastes and other fixings like coconut milk, rice noodles and papers, fresh Asian veggies, and a meat and seafood counter as well. Parking lot is a plus.

Great selection of imported products. Mostly Thai and other southeast Asian goodies. Purchased sweet chili sauce bottles and stir-​fry-​ready noodles. The staff is friendly and leave you alone as you wander the aisles. The parking lot is a larger one that can hold around 15 – 20 vehicles. Do NOT go into the smaller lot next to the building!

Only place to buy sator beans (stinky beans…) YUMMMMM So good (but they do stink! LOL

Great selection reasonable prices, and extremely helpful people.

I somehow managed to leave two paychecks behind at check out, already signed, and they mailed them back to me!!! I didn’t know where they went, until they showed up in my mailbox with a sweet note. These guys are seriously honest.
As for the store itself, they have a great selection. I’m new to asian cooking, but felt very welcome here. I was looking for curry paste that i usually buy online, they have a decent selection here.
Cool spot, and great people!

My fiancé and I are on vacation and we happened to stay at a hotel around here. We stopped by this place because this is one of the closest Asian super market and plus we want to buy some Thai snacks. The name and review look so attractive.
When we first arrive, the parking lot is so quite. Once we walked in, this place is so crowded with products. The fresh produce aren’t fresh. We grab a bottle of beer, my fiancé saw rat poop in the beer cooler. We grab two bags of pork skin back bags, when we open the bag, it’s smell like expired item. Most of the products here are old, probably the turn over is not fast enough to sell.
Well… Maybe never again not recommend any family here.

Pretty surprised at finding this gem. My parents use to live around this area before I was born and before they moved to the SFV. This was the OG Thai supermarket around when they first arrived here from Bangkok, Thailand.
This market has a local supermarket feel to it. Surprisingly the main beneficiaries of this market are not Thais, but when I visited, there was a healthy mix of Latinos, Whites, and Thais.
Their giant Chaokoh coconut milk was only around $ 6.00 whereas markets such as Bangluck in the SFV or Silom would sell it for $ 10.00 because they know people will buy it.
The one star off was for the poor selection of items and also the do it yourself pickled mustard inside the vegetable section.
I would stop here if you need your general South East Asian ingredients and you’re in the area!

This is a really solid Thai market outside of Thaitown. They have a pretty nice selection of vegetables, herbs and fruit, plus a pretty decent amount of dried goods and groceries. Not the most extensive selection, but it definitely gets the job done for most of your Thai ingredients and the prices seem a bit lower than the places off Hollywood.

In need of a lot of coconut water, I was going to go to Trader Joes but decided to give a Thai market a try after reading all the reviews in picking a good coconut water. So I came here since it was the closest one to my place.
It is a small store with a small lot in the back. I found the coconut waters and they had so many varieties. One with coconut jelly, another with coconut pulp, and a plain one. I got a few large cans and each can was only a buck! Score!
As I was approaching the register, I realized that I have been wanting to make thai curry and they had everythinf that I needed there. the store only has 4 or 5 aisles so I didn’t have to wander around too much, which I liked.
The employees helped me a lot telling me which brands they preferred.
I will be coming back for my coconut water needs and other Thai ingredients!

I came here for the first time this morning. Stocked up with a bunch of stuff you need for that genuine thai flavor in cooking — nam pla, tom yum, lime leaves, sweet basil, dried shrimp, tamarind paste, palm sugar, pickled radish and I can’t believe how low the prices are. Super friendly lady at the checkout who wanted to know what I was going to cook and gave me some advice on the best fish sauce to use. I can’t wait to go back!

The ladies were sweet and the most helpful experience I’ve had in an Asian market.
Will be coming back!

Okay, despite my previous review, I’ve gone back to this place and have since had no issues with customer service or closing early. I like this place’s selection of Thai and other SE Asian ingredients, and in several cases they’ve been the one place to carry a certain ingredient I needed.
I vacillated between 3 and 4 stars, but I’ll round up because unlike other area Thai markets, they have a dedicated parking lot with enough spaces for customers.

They have everything you need for an Asian!!! And at very cheap prices too.
This is one of the closest supermarkets to my crib… my friend now living in Long Beach from Pennsylvania loves grass jelly and buys them in bulk here. Seriously she comes in and buys like 15 at a time. LOL
They have Mama noodles, Indomie, some Filipino stuff as well. I think I’ve even seen some Vietnamese shit here, and the produce prices seem reasonably cheap.
This place is part of my childhood. They still have that ancient vending machine with shitty toys and I have fond memories of eating the crunchy coconut milk balls they sold outside the market on Sundays when I was young. They don’t do that anymore, but it’s a great memory. I hope this place never closes.

Bangkok Market makes me want to cook Thai food nowhere but in Los Angeles. They have everything, and more, that I need: Thai basil, Thai eggplant, Thai peppers, a wide variety of curry pastes, coconut milk, noodles galore, kaffir lime leaves, etc, etc, etc. In addition, their produce is much fresher than the Asian supermarket, Seafood City, near my house in Eagle Rock. Their Thai eggplants are so small and sad-​looking, but at Bangkok Market, it’s nothing but the best!
The store is a bit grungy (check expiration dates on cans and packaging!!!), but it doesn’t bother me. Just adds to the charm — but NB: it’s no Whole Foods.

This Asian market does not have a good selection of items. It has a really bad meat/​seafood counter. The veggie/​fruit section leave much to be desired.

This place has so much cool stuff! The people working don’t speak much english and it was a little difficult to find what I needed to make pad thai.
I don’t think they are a very high volume store so there was a lot of dust on the shelves. I was able to find everything I needed for pad thai at the end of the day though! It cost me way more than just ordering it at a restaurant but it was a great experience and I have enough materials for a couple more servings.
Great place to go for those hard to find thai ingredients!
