This store has variety of Japanese food and other items. However, the price is very high. Compared to another Japanese food store, everything is 20-30% more expensive.

We love going there. Friendly service and good prices on food and goods from many Asian countries.
Yes, they have ice cream ones and I believe they have green tea and red bean, possibly sakura. They have more kinds as well just nothing I know off the top of my head.
Idk what that is but I’m going to this store soon and I’ll see if they have that I’m just happy they have Mochi
Do they have onigiri? :0

They do not sell ready made onigiri at this store. You can buy onigiri seasoning and rice at Minnano to make your own though. They might also have onigiri molds as well.
They have a variety of noodles. But I cant read the labels. You could call them or go look around for yourself it's nice to go. The first answer made me cringe. If you can give the proper answer to a question leave it to someone who could do a semi decent job answering. That was unhelpful and rude.
It's pretty similar to here in the USA. some products are made in Japan, some Mexico and I'm sure it's the same with how they run their business. A lot of the items seems authentic either way.
The person below me is very correct, there are many different places similar, but none of them compare. Minnanos staff are very nice and great people to be around. This place would be the best choice to shop for Japanese products.
If they don't have an item you can ask to request them to get the item added to their inventory. You will just need to go in store and show them what you are wanting and then they can tell you if they can get it from one of their vendors.
I go there often, and I've never seen it. They carry other meiji products and they do rotate their selection every once in a while, but to date I have not seen Apollo there.
Do you sell Yaki soba noodles refrigerated in a 17oz. package with 3 individual packages ?

No, I don't believe so.

They usely have the red bean mochi and sesame. Though by the register you can find ice cream mochi such as strawberry, matcha, chocolate, vanilla and maybe some others.
Do you have any Qoo? Or Pocari Sweat?

Not sure about Qoo but for sure they have pocari sweat
Small toys like trinkets and souvenirs. squishy balls are stress balls I have not seen but they do change their inventory and listen to customers when they ask for new products. I have also never seen art supplies there but you may want to check with them they may have it behind the counter if anything. this place is so jam-packed with odds and ends that you really have to dig through stuff to find the goodies or hidden goodies.
Wonton noodles? I used to buy them in cups marriacn brand at heb. Dont have them any longer.

Possibly. There's a ton of instant noodle soups and stuff that you can make it from scratch if you want.

I can not actually say yes to that. I buy udon there and they have potstickers. Wontons are Chinese American so I want to say no but I have seen some really great stuff there so it is really worth the visit just to go. Everyone is so happy for you to be there it is unreal and I bought a huge pack of chop sticks there for only 2.50! I will repost tomorrow after I go again. Btw...it's very easy to make wonton soup and heb sells the wraps in the produce section next to the tofu. Remember, EAT FOR FUN!
they have many sweets, from mochi to "sweet bread" they have a lot in the freezers at the back. they do have a lot of traditional flavors like green tea and red bean but they do have western flavors as well.
