Metro Supermarket is a neighborhood grocery store larger than a convenience store but smaller than a typical big-chain. It carries a wide selection of organic, natural, and everyday practical goods, including fresh produce, meat, seafood, baked goods, household products, and a small selection of Japanese sweets and kim chi. The store is always clean and quiet, with quick and friendly service from lovely owners and employees. Prices are decent, though on the pricey side for many items, and the quality of produce and meat varies. It is a perfect grab-and-go place for staples, wine, or forgotten items, offering great convenience. However, its selection is small but decent, and some note it could use more pre-prepared fresh food.
Obviously a little more expensive than a supermarket, but they have a great selection. You would be surprised at the wide range of products they carry.

It seems to be a local supermarket with Asian people working as clerks. Although the store is not large, it carries detergent and household goods, as well as a small selection of Japanese sweets. You might be able to shop there in a way that feels a little similar to a Japanese convenience store.
