Kani Food Market sits on Đường số 14 in An Phú with a dual identity: the ground floor operates as a fresh seafood and ingredient market selling raw fish, meat, and seasonings, while the upper level holds a small restaurant with limited seating. The concept belongs to YouTuber chef Hoishi Phan, whose following has built a loyal base, though the venue's Google listing as a supermarket creates a navigation hurdle for first-timers searching under restaurant categories.
The menu leans Japanese — sashimi, sushi — but the standout across reviews is the soy-marinated dishes, a detail that separates this spot from the wider roster of Japanese options in Thao Dien. Fresh salmon consistently draws positive notes, and the kitchen occasionally sends out complimentary snacks or drinks. The seaweed sesame salad, while popular, has been flagged as running slightly salty. Dine-in prices sit above comparable casual Japanese spots in the neighborhood, a reflection of the fresh-market sourcing model.
Orders can be placed through Grab, Be, Shopee Food, or directly via the venue's Zalo channel — a practical alternative for those who live outside walking distance. Parking is available behind the building. The staff is small and enthusiastic, though order accuracy has drawn occasional criticism. The setting is unpretentious: a handful of tables, market refrigerators in view, no ceremony. For shoppers as much as diners, the market floor offers raw seafood and pantry staples to take home — a functional draw that distinguishes it from purely restaurant-format competitors in the area.
