  First, the positives: The food court and Japanese movie shop that are in this building are nice to have nearby. The food is very mediocre, but the selection is broad enough to make it interesting and the prices are reasonable. The movie shop is great for rentals or purchases - cheap and a wide variety of movies and TV programs from Japan. The supermarket itself is fine. You can generally find the Japanese products that you are looking for, but Nijiya tends to be a better alternative with slightly better pricing and higher-quality meats and ready-to-eat foods. The negative: The bathrooms were a COMPLETE DISASTER. While using one of the stalls, a flood of dirty toilet water came in from the next stall. There was also an awful odor and the whole place felt dirty. It really tainted my experience. Summary: A good place with a high concentration of Japanese products of various types, but there are better alternatives if you are not looking for something specific that can only be found here.
