GRACELAND FIL-ASIAN MARKET - Indio, California

This little market is a hidden gem! My 16yo daughter brought it to my attention as our family enjoy authentic Asia cuisine. I was immediately struck with the impeccable cleanliness and pleasant atmosphere of the entire store. Clean as a whistle! It had my attention immediately with that! There was a very small but meaningful and targeted selection. This particular day we were in search of furikake seasoning which we found but unfortunately it contained a milk ingredient and my daughter is severely allergic. Despite that, we had a blast buying different crisps, ground white pepper and some other hard to find items. The woman working at the store was very kind and polite. We will certainly be back to this great little hidden treasure of a store and try some of the frozen items and will not resist some of the coffee mixes this time! I really hope they select a different furikake that is free of lactose/ milk ingredients. This adorable store is a great stop if you enjoy treats from the Phillipines. We are grateful to have found it.

Great store and nice owner. I am glad I can find the items I am looking for. Especially the Buldak noodles.

Good-natured tiny Filipino grocery with most items being imports. The best selection is shelf-stocked things such as bottled sauces. The refrigerator/freezers are only scantily stocked, and store does not carry American basics like candybars and Coke.

Recently, I found out about this place, and it is awesome! Although it may be small it has so many things from teppoki, boba, rice flower, kimchi, and the list goes on. The process are reasonable, especially given the import tax. Also, when you shop here, make sure you check the sell by date. Since there isn't a whole lot of traffic, stuff tends to sit there for a while so make sure you consume quick. For example, I bought an ube flavoring that expires this August where the pandan flavoring still has a few years to go (they're both the dame brand). Great place and great stuff.

Has good items, a bit on the pricier side compare to palm springs and desert hot springs. Two blocks from my job so great to pop some quick meals into my rice cooker. I would like if they had more of a variety of items especially vegetables.

I have been shopping at this store for years. I make it a point to support local businesses but I am disappointed. I attempted to visit the store this past Saturday to purchase some specialty items that are specific to a Filipino store. The store was closed with no sign to state why. I visited this store the day before on Friday and no sign posted that they would be closed on Saturday. I asked the nearby restaurant (Alkobar Grill) if they had any information and all they could tell me is that "they have inconsistent hours". I called the store today to ask what happened with Saturday and the owner said "I don't know". Remember that customers are always first.

I will give them another chance but I may have to support the Fil Am Market in Cathedral City instead.

Went to this market to get products for my first attempt at Lumpia and Pancit. Rozana was so personable and helpful with my choices and wanted to let her know that both were s huge hit with my family. They couldn’t grab up the leftovers quick enough to take home for a meal today. Thanks for being so helpful and being local for convenient shopping.

Conveniently nearby home. Decent prices. Have most of the ingredients we need to cook up our filipino dishes, just missing the fresh produce and some meats. Love that it's near a restaurant where they serve Halo Halo.
