Review T&t - Richmond

This T&T is smaller than the one at Lansdowne Centre location. However, it is good enough for me to get everything that I needed. They have great selection of live seafood with reasonable price. Also, staff are friendly. Free indoor parking. You won’t get wet on rainy days (from September to April). However, the parking lot is very confusing. It has 3 zones and only 2 of them are free. The Green zone provides 90 minutes free parking which is closest to the T&T Supermarket. Even though it is free, you still have to register your car plate at the pay station.

T & T Supermarket is connected to Loblaw supermarkets (eg Loblaws, No Frills, SuperValu, Superstore, etc). While the main one in Richmond BC in Lansdowne Centre has their Seafood Bar where they can cook what you buy to eat there, a Starbucks, and Xing Fu Tang bubble tea, the T & T near the Richmond Oval, minus those services, is much less crowded. Both the upper and lower underground parking entrances are a bit tight so watch the mirrors to see if anyone is coming in the opposite direction. Provider WestPark monitors constantly so be sure to register your licence plate for the free parking. The pictures are from noon on a Thursday (sorry, I missed aisle 9). Not many fellow shoppers. The store is well laid out and very clean. Interestingly, this chain often has a better selection of Japanese Kit Kats than the local Japanese supermarkets. T & T has good promotions tied to Asian festival times. I would say the non-Asian products/labels, like cheese and dairy, are priced a bit higher than other supermarkets. T & T has a lot of frozen meats that are hard to find elsewhere. They have vegetable seeds, and some are specifically Chinese vegetables. I saw a number of staff with 'personal shopper' aprons collecting orders. They told me you can order online with a number of options (pick up, express delivery, and mail delivery) so check out the website. So if you are a Kit Kat hunter, or want a break from the Lansdowne T & T crowds, try this location. By the way, the Truffle and Mushroom Steamed Bun was delicious and one of the better T&T buns I have had. Very good mushroom flavour with the truffle (oil?) added, at least 2 kinds of mushrooms, I think water chestnut, and at a good price. Daniel

Clean and new place. My go to spot for cute Asian snacks that are usually hard to find elsewhere or new. Fun to discover wacky flavored new promotional items to try here. Otherwise, they also have all your normal grocery needs.

An important reminder to everyone. If you are gonna park in the underground parking, make sure you register your license plate promptly and save your proof of purchase. Parking enforcements are known to issue erroneous parking violation tickets to unsuspecting customers.

One of their newer branches. Fresh seafood, sushi and ready-to-eat section. Eat-in seating area available, even has patio seating. Underground parking quite troublesome with limited spaces and tight driving aisles. Store also sells household items and kitchen appliances such as rice cookers and water boilers. Grocery baskets with wheels and carts available for customer use. Store acessible via ramp and 2 elevators.

Very clean super markets, wide range of different goods, food choices, seafood, dry goods, cakes. .you name it...fun to shop at, conveniently located...

Unknowledgable cashier would make your day go worst. Not enough training and poor management. Vegetables not fresh made this the worst TnT in Richmond. If it is not raining, we wouldn't come to this one as it is the only one with underground parking.

Very organized and clean. It’s a lot less crowded and parking is pretty easy. Staff are friendly and helpful. Much less cooked food options than the other location, and much smaller fruit/vegetables section. Therefore, 4 stars.
