Introduction

H Marts are located all across the country, housing Asian grocery stores and food halls. In September of 2025, an H Mart opened in Orlando, located on Colonial drive. It not only became the state’s first, but also the world’s largest.

In the food court part of the store, there were too many vendors to count, so I attempted to try at least one item from each place. I then picked out which food items stood out the most to feature in this article.

Overview of H Mart

Unlike every other grocery store/food court, the H Mart had a whole hallway dedicated to an arcade, and another part to Japanese claw machines and photo booths. Though I didn’t try out most of those activities, it was fun to see the bright lights in the corner of my eyes as I ate the food and shopped in the giant store.

The place itself was extremely crowded, making it easy to lose people and difficult to find a place to sit. Of course, it was a Saturday afternoon, so I would not recommend going then, but it seemed that everyone was eager to see what food they could eat in the H Mart.

Food items

Eggcellent: Sandwich and Coffee’s Double Bacon Egg sandwich — 8/10:

Picture an egg sandwich. Your mind is bound to go to McDonald’s Egg McMuffin—small and greasy, yet acceptable to eat in the morning when you’re in the mood for eggs and bread. With this in mind when I saw the vendor Eggcellent, I was hesitant to order a sandwich, but once I caught a glimpse of the monstrosity of fluffy bread, eggs, an abundance of bacon and the unique orange sauce, my mind snapped away from the American staple. 

The item was covered with this citrusy sauce that matched the sweetness of the bread. Even though 90% of each bite was the sauce, it went surprisingly well with the savory bacon and ham.

I have to say, this was probably the biggest sandwich I’ve ever eaten, and was impossible to eat by myself. It was $10 for the whole thing, yet very worth every bite. 

Myung Ga: Korean BBQ and Tofu Soup’s La Galbi—5/10:

I was excited to try galbi for the first time, as it came recommended by many. The Korean short ribs were strongly seasoned, which was okay at first, until the bitter aftertaste kicked in. It was mellowed out, however, by the white rice it came with, which also added more of a satisfying texture.

As many ribs are, it was bone-in. You could usually see the bone, so you know where to avoid, but there were some pieces that had small bones within bites, which was less than desirable.

Additionally, the meat was overly chewy and took a long time to eat. This was the most annoying part of the dish, and is the main reason why I would not recommend it.

Kung Fu Tea’s Oreo slush—9/10:

While most people ahead of me in Kung Fu Tea’s line ordered milk tea, I decided to take another route, and ordered the Oreo slushie. Having never actually had a chocolate slushie before, it was a pleasant surprise to have it taste so much like a cookies and cream milkshake you can get at your local ice cream shop. Somehow though, it was much more refreshing.

The cookie flavor was watered down a little, which I actually appreciated, as I know without it, the sugar would be overpowering.

Even though you’re bound to wait in a long line to get any drink from this vendor, the slushie stands out more than any other dish that I tried, and will be the first thing I buy if I go back.

U Chun Tofu N Noodle’s Bulgogi ramen— 9/10

I just want to start out by saying that this ramen was the best I’ve ever had. The noodles were so thin, yet filled with savory flavoring. There was an option to leave the extra spice out of the dish, and I took it because, quite sadly, I do not have the highest spice tolerance. Even without the added flavor, the ramen was still amazing. 

The meat in it was a little dry, but when dunked in the broth and combined with the noodles, it fit right in.

I would one hundred percent recommend this dish, as it changed my view of ramen entirely.

Price and value

For the amount of food I got in each dish, everything was decently cheap. Each item was huge, and I could not finish it on my own. Something the same price at a classic fast food chain would be half its size.

The food was also much cleaner than normal American food, or even the American knock-off Asian food served throughout the country. Nothing I tried was greasy or all that heavy. The food was really worth buying.

Overall impression

H Mart is an experience, not just a place to eat. The food served is so diverse and the arrangement of vendors is so vast that you should have no problem finding something to enjoy. You might be there a long time due to the crowds, and keep in mind that it will take some time to find food that’s perfect for you. Plus, it is over 30 minutes away from Hagerty, so plan to make H Mart a full day journey.
