Do not go here! The only reason I gave it a one star is because the male cashier is nice and friendly; however, like other people have said a lot of their items are either expired or molding. I’ve lived in the area for 5 years and only go here when I REALLY need something. If I get lucky, I might find it here. Do yourself a favor a drive a few more miles down to Asia Oriental Market(2408 meridian st). Also, the owner of West Coast Oriental is very rude, not only to customers, but people who work there too.

No!!! Don’t go here. Went to buy fresh noodles for pad se ew, all of the noodles had mold on them. Gross! I would say it’s probably fine for some other shelf safe stuff, but not when there is a GREAT Asian market just down the road! Oriental market 2408 meridian street is a maybe 10 minute drive at most and has fresh ingredients, more selection and the friendliest guy working there ever.

Fairly cheap stuff, good variety but CHECKTHEEXPIRATIONDATES. Especially in the Indian section, a lot of the food had expired at least two years ago. Didn’t buy anything from the frozen/refrigerated section but I would be hesitant to do so, since they don’t seem to care very much about food safety.

Bought an assortment of Asian snacks, and some refrigerated seaweed salad. Came home to find one of the snacks had an expiration date of 2011 and the salad was rancid. The clerk was friendly and helpful, but the store seems disorganized and the food is not properly cared for. Buy at your own risk(to your health).

Good selection of items, but when we went the cleanliness left a lot to be desired — there was some rotting fruit and the freezer cases looked really dirty. Also, a store employee followed my two adult children and I around the store as if they thought we were going to steal something. We did get a nice variety of items I’d been unable to find elsewhere but honestly if I can find a place that has more or less the same stock and doesn’t treat us with so much suspicion, I won’t shop here again.

I love this place! Dora is a real character and is willing to help me find what I need or suggest something new to try. I can spend ½ an hour staring at the shelves and alway see a myriad of things I have never noticed before. Strange and wonderful! :) If you are looking for basics like rice noodles, coconut milk ‚. You can get most things here for ½ the price of your local grocery store. Their number has changed though, so don’t bother calling the one listed.

I try to go here at least once a week to get my Asian food necessities. It’s the best!

This place is awesome! What do you need? Asian candy, taro, rambuttans, lychees, mangosteens, pickled eggs, aloe, squid, dried bonito, canned fruit, quail eggs? They’ve got all that stuff and for super super SUPER cheap!!! Spend $ 5 get dinner. Oh yeah they have frozen whole duck(head and all) great for peking duck at homeif you feel up to it. The gals there are really sweet and helpfull and they will give you some great ideas for the stuff they are selling. I’ve asked them more then once about how to cook odd melons and greens and they are always great about giving me tips and suggestions. Like I said this one is pretty awesome it was on my weekly shopping outings when i lived in bellingham and will always have a special little place in my heart.
