Because I missed out on the bento boxes on my last visit, I arrived at Fujiya shortly after they opened. Good plan! There were already customers milling about the refrigerated section. There were many bento boxes to choose from. I grabbed a teriyaki chicken box and held on tightly. The box had several goodies in it. Pieces of teriyaki chicken, chicken meatball, broccoli, sticky rice, edamame, mushroom, fish cake, pickled daikon, beans, potato salad, lotus root & a gelatinous square of something. I like that bento boxes offering a small sample of everything. I also got a Bonito sticky rice wrapped in seaweed which was slightly sweet and salty. Bonito is a predatory fish. Dessert was a pancake sandwich with green tea filling. Scrumptious! Staff in there are friendly and sweet. The market has a supply of Japanese goods for cooking and snacks as well. You will also see a small table of items made from kimono fabric. Small parking lot in this plaza.
Cute little market with all the hard to find Japanese food items needed. Also they have a bento machine which I would love to try on the next visit.
Nice little Japanese market, found all the ingredients I needed to make my udon with all the fixings. I also found the best rice storage/measuring container, perfect since I was passing through in an rv.
I enjoyed shopping here. I've been 'collecting' Japanese food recipes for a few months and made the long trip to the area to enjoy a Japanese meal at Full Moon. Then over to Fujiya to shop for ingredients that I can't get near me. Umeboshi, kombu, bonito and seaweed. Furikake and togarashi, as well as light miso and Japanese curry mix. All kinds of delicious foods I can make now! The two people working in the store were very helpful. I'll definitely be back to replenish my supplies. And I'll try to buy a meal while I'm there!
I love that they have some bentos. But what they have is quite limited. Since it's pretty far from me, I am only going to go there if I have something else to do in the area. I was hoping they would have more imports from Japan. However, I still do think this place has the most Japanese food of all the Asian grocery stores in Arizona. The staff are always friendly. The place is very small, it reminds me of a Japanese combini ;)
When I need some Japanese grocery and I can't find it elsewhere say at Mekong or 99 Ranch or H Mart, I will come here to see if I can find what I am looking for. I also like coming here for their fresh ready made items. That's probably my favorite section in most Asian grocery stores I visit. I came in here on a Sunday at noon and there were massive amounts of people waiting for the fresh food items, wowsers! I did end up getting a small nori bento and it was delicious and affordable. I love pickled gobo and seaweed! And this place does it right. It comes with a small piece of grilled salmon and fish tempura. I also was finally able to find my favorite sakura wrapped mochi (I used to get these easily in NYC) and finally finally found them here on this visit. Yea! I also love that they have fun trinkets here from Japan and many other items imported from Japan, so it's a nice treat to come in and browse. They get one star deducted because they have limited hours but I guess that is also their charm too, makes it a nice treat to come in here to shop when they are open! I am a regular here and love this place!
Cakes are great, especially if you don't want it to be too sweet. Perfect Asian style. Call 2 days ahead of time to have something made.
Fujiya Market is a hidden gem that has become my go-to spot for all things Japanese cuisine. The bento boxes are amazing. They are made fresh daily and set out in the morning. So make sure you're there early to grab one. The price is way better than anywhere around and they taste great. What sets Fujiya Market apart is their market section, offering a wide range of Japanese groceries, snacks, and condiments. It is a nice relaxed ambiance. I highly recommend Fujiya Market to anyone who appreciates Japanese cuisine or wants to explore the world of Japanese flavors. This place is a true gem that will leave you coming back for more. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
I like to come here for a quick cheap meal sometimes when I'm in the area and not wanting to spend much money. The prepared lunches are insanely well priced and filling, and the staff is always super friendly. I usually get the one with the rice and the salmon and nori on top. The other items they sell in the store look pretty good as well, mostly packaged goods and drinks with a little produce area next to the lunches. They also have a microwave and some tables inside so you can heat up and eat your lunch! Would recommend :)
