This jewel is around the corner from me. Lucky me to have finally found it. Great selection for a small store. The homemade kimchi is to die for.

Great selection, especially for the size of the store. I love the sweet potato noodles and summer roll wrappers. Produce has always been fresh when I purchased it.

I love their kimchi! I always get my kimchi from here. I’ve tried to find other kimchi at different places but nothing compares to the kimchi they make here! This store has all of the Korean foods I need to make any Korean dish. My mom passed down her recipes and I always can count on Shilla to have everything I need!

Though it is a small shop, I don't mind. They are close to my home and the employees are nice. I was able to find nearly everything I needed. They get 5 stars becaude they had a well rounded selection for their size and decent hours. I bought short grain rice, rice vinegar, crab sticks, seaweed, wasabi, and a few other things. I also saw other staples I get like bulgogi sauce, roasted seaweed that I eat like chips, and a Korean BBQ grill I want. I will be going back.

Very friendly and helpful staff! I needed some ingredients for kimchi cucumbers. They assisted me in finding everything I needed and the kimchi cucumbers turned out great. Thanks so much for all the help, a very loyal customer.

This market is a treasure trove! It's right next to a Korean BBQ place and is very well stocked. It has fresh veggies, ranging from enoki mushrooms to perilla leaves. It is a Korean grocery store, but like many Asian grocery stores, has a little bit of everything from popular Asian cuisines. There is a decent selection of frozen meat (think thin slices of pork and beef.) It is a quintessential Korean grocery store and its best kept secret is the incredibly sweet and welcoming staff. As a non-Korean, I deeply appreciate the staff for being so kind and sincerely helpful. Absolutely recommend this market for those in the area. Prices are comparable to larger markets like Li Ming or Grand Asia. You won't be disappointed.

My place for ramen, bulk rice, and fresh greens. They have a lot more too, frozen stuff and salted seaweed. Helpful staff!

My favorite local Asian grocery store. It has an excellent selection of groceries, tea, produce, and housewares. Their house made kimchi is excellent. The staff are friendly, and can help you find what you're looking for.

It is a nice store where I buy gluten free noodles of a few varieties, sea vegetables and fish. My favourite fish -mackerel is only available here. I know only one better shop in terms of variety and prices but it is in Cary. I highly recommend this store.
