Less than a mile from The District at Tustin Legacy, a neighborhood Asian shopping center is scheduled to open this month.
Diamond Jamboree Shopping Center is a 114,000-square-foot complex at Jamboree Road and Alton Parkway. Guppy Tea House Cafe and Shinhan Bank America are the first two tenants that are expected to open this month, said Helen Wang, the center’s leasing manager.

Here’s a list of businesses that have signed leases to open at the center: The Boiler Louisiana Seafood, Ayumi Japanese Grill, Capital Seafood, Crepes De Paris, Campus Video and Mail Center (DVD, CD music store with FedEx and UPS), Majestic Spa, Medi-spa and Urgent Care Center, Nuribom Acupuncture Medical Group, Chae Bahn Bibimbap (Korean restaurant) and BBQ Chicken USA.

I am totally gunna live at this center for the food
Look around folks…. Does Irvine need another asian shopping center??? We’ve got one on every corner. This is not news, it’s fact……. Why don’t you write a story about the last white owned store closing it’s doors due to lease buyout for that asian center?
Just a thought.
Yea sure, Kevin, your right, there’s an asian shopping center almost everywhere. But you know what? Just because I am asian, let me tell you something. Is it the asian people’s fault for being so successful and being so capable of starting businesses that make so much money that other businesses shut down? As far as i know, the hispanic and asians make more money than the caucasians. Why? simply because unlike many local stores like Guess, and even ralphs has high prices for simply food and clothing. Asians and hispanics sell their items cheaper, thus making more money.Oh my gosh never thought of that! Well isn’t that another though?
“Does Irvine need another Asian shopping center?” C’mon now, does Irvine really need one than one Target within a couple-mile radius? Having lived in Irvine for the past 7 years, I am excited to see this Asian shopping center. These tenants should be able to make up for the lack of good Asian food/restaurants in the shopping centers out by IVC and on Culver/Walnut.
kevin, kevin, kevin…so white, so naive. how many more spoons, denny’s, mcdonalds, and burger kings would there be without asian shoppin centers to give you some variety and quality in terms of restaurants?
