Seafood City Supermarket

This location is in a large shopping mall area. It’s tucked between a Target and Macy’s. Tons of parking is available. Once you walk in the mall, you’ll pass an AT&T store, massage relaxation center, and a few kiosks before seeing the entrance.
There’s a small selection of produce which opens up into the frozen meats/​hot dogs area. There’s also a small selection of liquor. I had to pick up a bottle of Tanduay while there. Tons of snacks and other assorted Filipino foods. Just make sure to check the expiration date when you buy something. The fresh meat and fish selection is quite large. Prices are reasonable.
There are about 4 small check out isles. Once you leave, make sure to stop by chowking, Jollibee, or Leelin for some Filipino food/​snacks.

This market is great! It has vastly cleaned up in the past few years. My go to place for tropical canned fruits like jackfruit, toddy palm seed, etc. Also they have a great selection of tapoica pearls and nato de coco. They also have a nice selection of rare fruit trees in their floral section. I can’t think of anywhere else where I can buy a mamey, logan fruit, lychee or miracle fruit tree. I came in the other day looking for pandan extract, and they had it at a great price!

I like this place! The only bad thing is that it’s so hard to find (it’s in a mall looking structure) which was a bit confusing at first. Once I got down in the establishment though, it was nice. Large (and cheaper) varities of seafood and sushi items which was cool. Helpful and friendly staff. I’ll be coming back for more of my sushi needs !

I enjoyed the endless variety of Filipino goods. that reminded me of my childhood. In no time, I had a basket full of stuff and made my way to the cashier. Boy, was she sourly looking. I don’t care to know what crawled up her stink ass and died. She rang up my purchases and after I paid, the bitch walked away without a word. I actually had to reach behind the counter for a bag and put my items in it. Do we bag our own shit in this store? Or did that sourly Filipino bitch had something against me? We didn’t even talk. WTF.

Awesome place for Asian Specialty snacks! Convenient location which is only a 5 min drive to my house! I will starve to death if this place doesn’t exist!

Wished I could have liked this place better since I would have Loved a go-​to asian supermarket near where I live. Unfortunately, Seafood City did not hit the spot for me. Perhaps if I was more experienced in Filipino cooking I would appreciate the store more. Maybe I’ll give the place another chance in the future.

Just called to inquire about a BBQ party tray order and the woman who answered the phone was rude and dismissive. She was quick to say that they don’t accept orders over the phone and in a hurry to end the conversation. I had more questions to ask which seemed to irritate her.
I love the place and food, but they really need to work on customer service. The phone left a bad taste, so I’ll be ordering my party tray from someplace else.

I come here all the time when I visit my friend here in eagle rock. They have so much stuff I can’t find in other grocery. Great store and great deals.

If you ever want to cook authentic traditional pinoy food, this is your one stop store to make whatever you want to create! The meat section is good and the vegetable choices are good. They are affordable. It’s in the Eagle Rock Plaza so after shopping you can eat at Jollibee or Chow King.

Like most folks, I like the location, selection and staff just fine. We’ve had good luck with the meat and seafood departments: reasonable prices for usually good quality.
However, if you’re buying clams, try somewhere else. We bought 30 cherrystone-​type clams here, left them in a pail of cold saltwater overnight, and cooked them the next evening. We only had to cull half a dozen that weren’t closed before cooking, but upon cooking them, only 3 opened; the rest were dead and therefore toxic.
Then again, fresh clams are not easy to find in LA once you leave the beach communities. Frankly, I wouldn’t recommend buying clams anywhere but at one of the piers… and even then it may be chancy.

This is the cleanest Seafood City I’ve been. Most Filipino goodies can be found here. Beware of the dried mangoes and other dried ones because they are usually old and taste stale. Lots of good choices for meat and Filipino ingredients. It’s next to ChowKing, Jollibee and Leelin, so perfect if u get hungry and crave some filipino food.

Located in the plaza with Target with more than enough space for parking.
Off the bat, smells really fishy but hey, it is a «seafood» market.
I can’t really say that the fish or meat is of outstanding quality or fresh but the prices are definitely cheap.
You definitely see more cuts than you would in american markets like pork belly.
There are selections of junk food and other grocery items, usually sold cheaper than american markets. However, you don’t get a extensive «asian» assortment as you would in a chinese market.

I wish I lived nearby. Even though I’m not Filipino I love their fresh seafood and meats. Usually in other stores (*cough* Ralphs) you have very limited cuts of meat. Here they have ox tail, goat, whole fish, squid, lots of different cuts of pork and chicken. And of course with every ethnic market, there’s all types of fresh produce like whole taro, imported mango and lychee.
Definitely worth the trip.

I bought Yakult at the same expiration date. (See the picture). Now how am I suppose to drink the rest? You guys are not supposed to sell this anymore. What the heck Seafood city. Seriously?!

I never come to this place unless I have my aunts visiting. Any oriental food you can think of, this store possibly have them.
As part Filipino, food such as longanisa and tocino is something I often crave.
They have many variety of seafood that not too many grocery stores carry.
As stated above, I rarely come here so when I took one of my aunts here, we got tilapia and bangus (milkfish) from the seafood section, and went straight for the cashier. The cashier informed me that the fish have to be weigh and tag by the seafood/​meat section in order for her to ring it up. I went back to the seafood section and had them clean and tag the fish. As I came back to the cashier (possibly 10 mins max), she was taking care of another customer already and informed the next customers that she’ll handle my transaction since it was in line 10 mins ago. Customers were understanding and the cashier handled the situation professionally.
The only thing about this store, if you’re Asian or Pacific Islander, whether you’re half or full, don’t be surprised when the employees start talking to you in their language.

The parking is plentiful.
The store itself is full of awesome deals:
— fresh fish
— fresh meats
— fresh produce
The prices are incredible, especially on the fish and meat. The selection is also incredible.
The only negative is the inconsistency of the overall cleanliness of the market.

A good alternative market because it’s convenient close for me. I usually go to Chinatown or 626 but it’s a tad bit of a drive. This market specializes in Filipino food. It’s has all the essential Asian vegetables which is great, domestic & import beers, don’t know why San Miguel is so pricey for 12pk. Anyways, have to take a # at meat counter, seafood area can get crazy at times. Pick out your fish and other seafood items & have them clean it for you. They give you a # and you can continue shopping around the market but be sure to hear out your # from the intercom. Overall, good place, conveniently in a shopping mall.
Two birds, one stone.

Parking — ample mall parking
This store is a lot smaller than the other locations. But you will still find an assortment of:
— fresh produce
— fresh meats
— fresh seafood
— reasonable prices (compared to Grocery chains)
— treats and delicacies from The Philippines
As I mentioned, this location is fairly small, so it does get cramped as you try to maneuver around with your cart.
This location now carries prepared foods at the meat section such as fried tilapia, fried banus (milk fish), chicken skewers, pork skewers, etc. This is what I come for when I’m at Seafood City. It beats the long wait for have fresh fish cleaned, and fried for you.

(Shopped 06÷16÷14 M @ 5:30pm): I’m all about Pinoy Pride, and unfortunately mine has been lacking for quite awhile… but no more!
I had lunch with a friend in the area when my Mom asked me to stop by at the Seafood City Supermarket in the Eagle Rock Plaza for some frozen lumpia she needed for an event my Dad was going to. Since I joined Unilocal in 2011, I realized it had become my diary of sorts of my daily life. Having said that, this apparently was the first time I’ve shopped here in a long time! Which begged the question…“WHY???”. Here was the novela to my my long-​awaited return:
Groceries — various ($ 38.27) — Predominantly Filipino products, you were able to find Asian and American foods, too. The Pinoy standards of lumpia, swiss rolls, ube and fresh seafood was plentiful. You needed to make pancit… they had all the ingredients. If you’re hankering for halo halo… they had what you needed. I was excited to find a Filipino beer I’d never tried before (Red Horse), and I totally had to buy a bag of Flipz salted snacks; I loved the irony!
Service — I was greeted by a friendly female cashier, but after that I was never approved again until I checked out… at which time the age verification program didn’t believe my age information which held back the line. Since all I really needed was the lumpia, I roamed aimlessly along and ended-​up impulse buying, so I honestly didn’t need any assistance. But it appeared they could’ve used more help in the seafood and meat section based on the long line. I’ll have to dock them ½-​STAR here for the disapproving look I received when I was spoken to in Tagalog and I couldn’t respond back. I’ve accepted this fate at all Filipino businesses I went to.
Parking (free) — The supermarket was located on the ground level of the Eagle Rock Plaza, so there were plenty of parking spots everywhere. If some odd reason, there were some nearby free street parking.
Atmosphere, décor, ambience — Basically, your standard grocery store between the size of a Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods. You past four to five register lines once you entered
, fresh produce on your left, refrigerated items along the left and back walls
, fresh meats and seafood along the right, and aisles upon aisles of heavily-​stocked shelved products in the middle. Of course, there were numerous promotional collateral all around, and electric fluorescent lighting was everywhere. No TVs or background music. Generally-​speaking, the place was pretty clean with a few spots that seemed disheveled like they were restocking.
Attire — Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-​shirt, boardshorts, and flip-​flops.
Overall, I’m ashamed to have lost my roots and not shopped at the Seafood City Supermarket at the Eagle Rock Plaza for these past several years. I forgot how wonderful and close to me it was. It carried all of my favorite Filipino products and I’d always run into someone I knew (as was the case on this visit). I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (total paid experience was around $ 38.00; no tip required). Although I didn’t buy any this time, I remembered the meats and seafood always fresh and at a good price; I think the long line I saw attested to that. Although they accepted credit cards, not mine of choice… AMEX! 4.0 STARS

Getting pass the smell of raw fish and seafood, I do appreciate an Asian market that’s truly affordable nearby.
We were craving saw oysters and voila! At 99cents each not guaranteeing all will open up, I purchased 18 pieces and only 12 of the 18 opened. Despite the disappointment, we enjoyed them!
