H Mart Paramus

Conveniently situated along the busy Route 17 corridor, H Mart in Paramus is a sprawling and exceptionally well-maintained destination that has become a staple for both Korean families and international food enthusiasts in Bergen County. The store is frequently celebrated for its bright, modern interior and a layout that feels far more spacious than typical urban markets. Entering the space, shoppers are often struck by the massive, meticulously organized ramen aisle, which is widely considered one of the most comprehensive in the state. The atmosphere is vibrant and clean, providing a comfortable environment for everything from a quick lunch run to a deep exploration of specialized Asian pantry essentials.

The produce department is a major draw, known for its high-quality selection of seasonal items like sweet Korean pears, giant Fuji apples, and various types of Napa cabbage essential for home fermentation. In the rear, the seafood section features a robust variety of fresh catches and live tanks, while the meat department offers premium cuts of thinly sliced ribeye and marinated pork belly ready for the grill. Beyond the groceries, this location is a popular community hub due to its impressive food hall and the presence of L’AMI, a French-Asian bakery known for its fresh pastries and coffee. The store also houses a dedicated housewares section featuring professional-grade rice cookers and traditional Korean ceramics. With its ample parking and broad selection of goods ranging from Japanese snacks to Filipino staples, it serves as an indispensable resource for the region.
