Yasai Produce Market

Crimson peaches and lychees win over all other stone fruit!
I've been around many peaches, but these are splendid!
Thank you, Yasai!!

I started shopping at Yasai Market in 2005, when I moved into the neighborhood. I love their produce, way better than from the Safeway across the street and, if memory serves, they have better prices as well. I've lived in other parts of Oakland since then, even Orinda, but it's always worth the drive to do my shopping at Yasai.
The owners are great and they always have the nicest people working there.

Thank you Yasai for being the best neighborhood produce and grocery store in Rockridge/Elmwood! So appreciate getting my fresh vegetables and seasonal fruits. AND the best damn Asian condiment section ever!!

Yasai Market is an absolute gem of a store, on a very "European" style block consisting of a real butcher shop, a ridiculously good bakery, and Yasai for your produce, milk, and chocolate peanut clusters (all kitchen staples).

The staff is friendly, and the store is well kept. I'm not sure why anyone would need to go to Safeway, outside of having everything in one spot (albeit Safeway quality, read; not as good or eclectic). I appreciate Yasai, they've been around for a very long time, and I wish them continued success until they decide to retire and live a happy retirement.

Thank you Yasai! Peanut clusters, a fresh piece of fruit, and a nice smile from one of the employees at your store always makes my days that much better. Rock on!

Friendly staff, amazingly fresh produce and spices and basic items make this a no-brainer to shop here weekly.

I needed just a few Japanese items and was not going to the "Berkeley Brawl" markets. Yasai's was pretty empty.

The kamaboko was sold frozen and who knows for how long. The one Daikon there was as limp as a... so I passed on it. Ended up with Bull Tonkotsu Sauce and Sesame Oil (pure). Paid a bit more, but avoided a crowded store.

Made it to 4 stars based on the nice and helpful staff!

Well-run produce shop with a nice selection of very fresh fruits, vegetables, herbs, and nuts as well as a small selection of canned goods and a dairy section. Good prices on top quality stuff. People are always nice and friendly.

An excellent spot to grab local produce and snacks! The prices are really reasonable and they stock good quality fruits and veggies. They often have sales on their produce and will advertise them by placing their sale items out in front of the store. They also carry a nice variety of nuts and local snacks. I like coming in and perusing their snack section because I usually always find something new to try.

They carry organic, gluten free, and dairy free items too. I've purchased a variety of different fruits and vegetables here and for the most part, their items are fresh. There have been a few occasions where I've received bad and/or spoiled fruit. The good thing is, it's really easy to go back and exchange or return the items. This has only happened a couple of times, but I would advise you to double check your items before you leave (especially the fruit).

I've never had to wait in a ridiculously long line and they're produce is far more superior to the hellhole across the street (*cough*SAFEWAY*cough*). The people working here are super friendly and helpful. I haven't been coming here as often as I used to, but it's nice to know that this market is around when I need it.
