Sam's Oriental Store - Little Rock, Arkansas

Joel Monterrey

There are a lot of items here at great prices; However, you can't buy anything without cash! I was really surprised by this but maybe that's how prices are so low. I had to put back my purchases though as I do not ever have or use cash. Because the space is so limited, the products here are good quality. There's no room for the slow sellers, bad products, things people do not enjoy. The place is simply too small to stop the "maybes." I will go back with cash in hand as soon as I can. I found many unique and fresh herbs, an incredible selection of teas, many delicious sauces, and hoards of sushi making products. The isles were narrow and shelves stocked full but people were polite and friendly as I passed them down the isles. It seemed clean, organized, but packed full! It's worth a visit!

I have been coming to this location since I was a child and I am in my 40s now. There is always a huge selection Oriental and Middle Eastern food. They even have fresh crab and fresh seafood. My only complaint would be that some items do not have prices on it. But, I can Overlook that easily. I understand the area is not the safest but I have never had one single issue in my entire life. I recommend doing here during daylight hours especially on the weekends. It is the year 2022 and the prices keep going up.. so, you still have items not marked and the prices are getting high.

I finally found an Asian grocery store that has Indonesian products such as kerupuk, gula Jawa / gula melaka and bumbu masak. You won’t find them in most Asian grocery stores in NWA. Indonesians, Singaporeans and Malaysians use the gula Jawa/ gula melaka for most of their desserts and cooking. Also, this store makes fresh kimbap (Korean sushi) and they taste so good. Grab some while you’re there. I didn’t get to take the picture as they were gone quickly when I shared with my friends. I’ll definitely go to this store whenever I’m in Little Rock.

We love going here like every other weekend for our Asian snack and food needs. Some prices are a little high but it’s to be expected with inflation and he travels out of state to get his products. He has good deals a lot of the time and just about every flavor of ramen. Definitely recommend.

This store is near the Arkansas University. There is a row of laundry shops. Many goods are displayed in the store. Many of the products are Korean food. Then there was Chinese food and Japanese food. Japanese food had miso and seasonings. There were many frozen foods in the store, and there were many unusual ones such as Korean-made frozen foods. There are also Korean and Japanese cup noodles, sweets, tableware and Korean rice. There are also kimchi and kimpa zawaan, as well as kimchi ingredients. Please note that this store does not accept credit or debit cards! ! It was written next to the cash register that only cash or a check could be used.

This is the second time I've been here. I came here after becoming a pandemic. It was open at the same time as usual, the number of products was not small, and I was relieved that they were lined up on the shelves. There were fresh vegetables and tofu. The shop here is rich in Korean food, and I felt that Korean seasonings, noodles, and frozen foods were cheaper than other products. There are over 50 types of instant noodles. Both the bag noodles and the cup noodles are very fulfilling. As always, only cash only is accepted, so be careful when visiting the store.

このお店はtheアーカンソーユニバーシティの近くにあります。ランドリー店の並びにあります。店内にはたくさんの商品が陳列されています。商品の多くは韓国の食べ物です。その次に中国の食べ物、日本の食べ物もありました。日本食はお味噌や調味料がありました。店内にはいくつもの冷凍食品があり、韓国製の冷凍食品など珍しいものも沢山ありました。韓国製、日本製のカップ麺、お菓子、食器、韓国製のお米類もたくさんあります。キムチの素はもちろんのこと、キムチやキムパ用の沢庵もあります。こちらのお店はクレジットカードやデビットカードが使えないので注意してください！！キャッシュかチェックしか使えないと、レジの横に書いてありました。

私はここに来たのは2回目。パンデミックになってから来てみた。いつもと同じ時間帯にオープンしており、商品の品数も決して少なくなく、棚にぎっしりと並べられていて安心した。新鮮な野菜も豆腐もあった。ここのお店は韓国系の食材が豊富で、韓国製の調味料や麺類、冷凍食品が他の物に比べると安いと感じた。インスタントラーメンの種類は50種類以上ある。袋麺やカップ麺両方とても充実した品揃えである。相変わらずキャッシュオンリーしか受け付けていないので、来店時は注意が必要である。

I visited because I've only been one time in my life. Pulaski Culinary field trip some YeaRs Ago. I remember finding interest, saying I'd be back. And did! Along with my daughter ❤️ We didn't buy anything, but next time we plan to. I'm happy "Sam's Oriental" still here

It is the most horrible thing there is in fish, I bought it and it came out almost destroyed. Be careful with what you offer, if it is no longer useful to you, do not sell it, they still have it aside. What a disappointment, it costs so much to earn money that you don't want to give it away?
