I've been a customer for over 30 years. Very helpful staff. Outstandingly large inventory. Buy if he doesn't have it he'll try to order it for you if you have time. Highly recommended.

I come here more often for non-food items (bowls, lunar new year decorations, paper/joss money, and incense) that the other stores don't usually carry. Sometimes they have the frozen/packaged items you can't find or are out of stock at the other Asian grocery stores around town. I don't usually get produce here. Nice small store.

While we were visiting, my fiance (who is from China) wanted to whip up a big authentic Chinese dinner for my family. The first place to come up was Asian Food Store for the supplies. They carry a variety of things - a number of sauce bases from Southeast, East, and South Asia, rice, a lot of asian snacks, produce, meat, seafood, etc. It reminded me of a small market that would be in the Vietnamese section of Chicago (Argyle in Uptown) or a smaller Asian market you might find in NYC. It's not huge, but they have a number of things you might need and their Asian snack section is not bad at all. They carry some things I haven't seen much of anywhere like durian coffee mix, durian snacks, etc. The produce I feel is probably hit or miss - I'm guessing you'd probably want to get there earlier in a day for the most fresh produce. The meat/seafood is probably similar too in that regard. We picked up a bunch of ground pork and it was okay - not the best but not the worst ground pork. Also really glad they carry packets of enoki mushrooms, which are delicious with melted butter, garlic (and you could wrap bacon around it if you want). Prices were fair and not expensive, at least what we're used to and some things are cheaper than what you'd find at bigger grocery stores nearby like Hy-Vee. Overall, for a small city like Rochester, it's good a place like this exists. Hopefully they expand as the Asian community expands too. Solid 4 stars.

Hello bahn mi. Head to the back of the store near the meat section and find these delicious cold sandwiches waiting for you. Grab one to go. 3.99. Instant picnic. (I am sooooo sad I discovered this just now as I am moving away soon). They also have fresh exotic produce (kaffir lime leaves are CHEAP here. I got a ton to freeze for curries and Tom ka soup.). Split Hocks for ramen broth and large cheapish live lobster (12.99 a pound) round out this place. It's not the largest Asian Food Store I've been to but Rochester is a small town. This place is right just the way it is.

The prices were a little bit higher than I am used to back home, but they had a good selection especially with their produce!

This store seems to have a good variety of Asian ingredients! Pretty clean and well organized. Interesting hot foods (not sure if it is a Friday only thing but definitely worth checking out). Live seafood and other selection of frozen seafood. Definitely has necessities for Asians living in the area (or those who enjoy using Asian ingredients)!

Today is my first time stopped in Asian Food Store and my shopping there was great. Since I bought a lot, so I didn't have problem using my credit card there. As an asian grocery store in a kinda small town, AFS does offer a large variety of asian products to its customers.The only problem I have is the sanitation of their coolers. Compared to Asian Pacific Market, I can only rate AFS 4 stars. But I still strongly recommend you guys go there to buy some Chinese snacks. Of course, Asian Pacific Market does have lower prices and the owner is always nice.
