Kumar’s Island Market 1440 East Santa Clara Street, San Jose, CA 95116

"It’s a fun place to visit when you want some Polynesian food or goodies"

"THIS IS A REALLY SMALL STORE WITH GARBAGE STUFF, ACUTALLY WE FOUND LOT OF STUFF FROM COSTCO , THIS GUY KUMAR SELLS IN HIS STORE, FOR DOUBLE PRICE! SHOCKING AND SEEMS LIKE HE IS REALLY HARD UP FOR MONEY, THE SAME BOTTLE OF JAMAICAN CURRY POWDER SELLS ON AMAZON FOR LITERALLY $3.00, AND KUMAR SELLS FOR DOUBLE THE PRICE WITH TAXES. THE LAMB IS FULL OF FAT, MEAT IS VERY UNHEALTHY AND LIKE RUBBER, NOT TASTY AT ALL. WHEN WE TALK TO KUMAR, HE STARTS TO GET VERY UPSET, RATHER THAN RESOLVING CUSTOMER SERVICE RESOLUTION."

"Very positive first experience here today. The very tiny store is a little overwhelming upon walking in because there is just so much in a tiny space, but great customer service. Fake flower, Kikui nut, and $ leis + Hawaiian shirts & swim trunks + frozen food from various islands among other canned food staples. Not my favorite brand of poi, Taro Brand, but they have it and are willing to help source other delicious items from the Hawaiian islands that aren't currently in stock. Nice find!"

"This is a small store with Caribbean, Hawaiian and island items. The owner is helpful and kind. Although they have a variety of items is hard to see everything due to boxes covering most of the store. If you are looking for something in particular ask the staff. They have a small selection of frozen items and produce, however most is in cans."
