Busan Mart

Busan Mart is a Korean convenience store that offers a array of frozen, instant and hot foods. Their freezers are stocked with a wide selection of drinks and desserts. We tried their kimbap, egg/cheese/spam masubi, and ramyun. The hot food was comfy to eat and the ramyun flavors are great. Eating here at the front of the store felt very nostalgic. It reminded me of when my wife and I traveled abroad. This is one of those places that I really wish I had around my highschool and college while growing up. There is a bigger location nearby but this one is nice a quiet for those who want to have some peace while eating. There are 3 induction plates and 2 microwaves. This location seats mostly 1-4. I would definitely recommended it to those looking for a cheap snack/meal. It's a great place for students, adults, or a small group of friends who want to get together for an easy eat.

Kimbap rice was old and dry. But the store is a cool set up. Happy to see Korean food getting its recognition. But yeah dry rice they should be half off after 12:00 or make it fresh

I’m really excited that this Korean market has opened up in Tempe! I’ve been to Korea a couple of times already, and it honestly feels just like being in Korea. The store is well-stocked with all the essential pantry items and more, and the pricing is fair for what you’re getting. Some reviews complain about the cost, but the reality is that this is the only Korean market right in the middle of Tempe. You’re paying a little extra for the convenience of not having to drive across town or navigate a huge store when you just need a few things. To me, it’s worth it. One of the best parts is the little extras—they have kimbap (Korean sushi) and even let you heat up ramen and enjoy it there. The service is friendly, which makes the shopping experience even better. I really hope this marketplace is here to stay. It’s a gem for anyone who loves Korean food or wants to explore it without leaving Tempe.

Lots of different goodies to choose from! Their kimbap was delicious! Different kinds of ramyun and tteokbokki that you can warm up and eat there. Super convenient! I’m glad I stopped by and would love to return when I’m back in the area
