Best PlaceJuice Reviews

Came here looking for some seafood for a boil. Ended up buying a ton of fresh shrimp. I liked that it was pre-bagged so you could just grab and go. It was not frozen stuff, but they had plenty of that too. Their live crawfish stock was small and didn't look great so I got that elsewhere. Wanted live muscles, but they only had frozen.
Person that checked me out was polite and feiendly. Parking lot is huge.
I found what I was looking for. BOK CHOY and CHINESE BROCCOLI. I was trying to make a new beef meal. Their veggies looked so fresh. I recently discovered these veggies and a friend told me where to buy them. The store was neat. Be aware it is a seafood place, so the smell was obvious when I entered, but not in a bad way. I was there for veggies, but they have a huge selection of seafood. The cashier was polite and quickly processed my purchase. experience.
2/15/22 - Update - It has been months since this initial review, but yesterday I returned, and the "SMELL" was GONE!. I was extremely please and enjoyed ???? my shopping experience.
Overall this store is huge, it would take multiple trips to actually time to observe everything.
They have not only Asian, they have Mexican, African, and Filipino, cuisine ingredients.
Fish - I bought the lobster and I’m sadden to say it tasted rotten, I am from New England and I can say this Lobster was disturbingly poor.
(If your from the coast, there is no hope here .... sadly)
Meat - the Pork selection was great.
Dairy, they had a special Mexican cheese section which was amazing.
Snacks, they obviously had aisles and aisles of incredibly options.
Frozen - this is where I think the best options where located they had literally EVERY flavor of dumpling and every noodle and vegetable options.
Spices and Sauces - THIS IS THE BEST PLACE FOR SPICES AND SAUCES.
Seafood City is one of my favorite stores to wander through while in St. Louis! It has a huge selection of drygoods from a variety of countries, as well as fresh and frozen seafood, fresh produce, and several aisles of frozen fare that houses myriads of delicious things. It is always my last stop to stock up on snacks for my journey, as well as spices and ingredients/sauces that I can't find at home.
For anyone wondering, yes, they are temporarily closed right now .
I went there last weekend (21 Jan) and it was closed. I had to try to get all of our foods from the other asian stores around St. Louis and came up short on certain items and fish. Seafood City is best place around if you need obscure Asian ingredients/foods.
ETA: be careful of the seafood products that you purchase. I have not been back since the first visit. I did receive a spoiled fish, which completely turned me off from returning... Stars updated to reflect disappointment.
They got everything! From live Catfishs, blue crabs, and lobsters to fresh exotic fruits. It is a "fish market" so it does smell "fishy". A star was taken off for the smell of the place. I think some proper ventilation would be great.
Check out the county's latest Health Inspection December 2022. Seafood City was shut down due to numerous contamination violations. Damaged roof allowing rainwater to drip on meat and seafood that was improperly stored in coolers. That is the real reason they are remodeling.
This is my favorite place to shop when I'm needing specialty items I can't get in the area where I live. Prices are fair and selection is great. I sincerely hope that Google is wrong and this place isn't closed.
