Reviews for MNGO cafe in San Diego, CA
What a trendy Asian Fusion dessert cafe! Kakigori, Mango Sticky Rice, Thai Tea, Macarons, Butterfly Pea, Smoothies... There's so... many options! + OMG: The mango pudding is so tasty! Very firm and jiggly. I definitely recommend getting this with coconut icecream! It tastes homemade and pairs excellently with the mango sticky rice. They also give tri-colored sticky rice, which issuper cute. My biggest critique is that the coconut milk sauce is very salty. + Trio Custard Dip: A little pricey for what itis. Honestly... it's just toasted King's Hawaiian buns with Thai Tea, Ube, and Pandan custard. Very simple, but delicious! Thepandan custard dip was definitely the best one. Very spacious inside (lots of seating available) and they get quite busy, soplan accordingly if you come visit with friends. There can be a line out the door! Read more
The kakigori (shaved ice) is really good! The dessert is refreshing and the cheesecake inside the ice is delicious. The... condensed milk and strawberry sauce comes on the side are good as well. Next time would like to try mango shaved ice. Theinside environment is cute. There is a mango tree in the center of the store. Usually there is a line for ordering. Plenty ofparking spots are available in the plaza. Very convenient! Read more
Great spot to drop in and grab a dessert to follow up a dinner along Convoy. The Taro Sago was very tasteful and a unique... flavor. Trio Custard Dip is absolutely delicious and a must try! They just need more staff to help keep the place a little moreclean, since they seem short handed when there?s a big line starting to form Read more
Went in with tepid outlook and came out with a giant smile. Great lively place with lots of young couples and groups. The... dessert is very unique and delicious and yes, the mango is on point. I don?t remember the name of the dish but it?s the firstone on the menu. Highly recommend. Read more
Tried three different sweet desert at MNGO. Mango creme brulee which is a fresh mango cut in half and torched sugar with coconut... creme. Also comes with 3 different sticky rice also covered in coconut creme. This was my favorite. The regular creme bruleetopped with fresh fruit was good but didn't standout too much. The final mango sago is combination of fresh mango bits, sago andmango pudding in coconut milk. I love how everything wasn't overly sweet. All three had unique taste and the staff was veryfriendly and answered all our questions. Can tell they really enjoy their work. Read more
A trendy dessert spot with an upbeat vibe. Great spot for you and your friends to hang out and grab a cold, refreshing... dessert. 4 stars for the food. Ordered mango sago and mango chunks were sour.. 3 stars for the ambience. Great lighting. 1 starfor cleanliness. One single unisex bathroom. One of the dirtiest bathrooms in Convoy area. I felt like I went to the 99 ranchMarket. The couch was sticky so we moved to the bar table... well the table was sticky also. This place needs some serious deepcleaning. Read more
I always get the Mango Sago. The dessert is a fusion of different flavors with the highlight of mango. This dessert is perfect... after a meal, it's light and refreshing with a little richness. The staff is helpful in giving recommendations. Give MNGO a try,I'm sure you'll find your new favorite. ???? Read more
I remember coming here when it used to be more cozy with more dessert options. It is more modern now but you can still enjoy... yourselves. We tried the creme brulee with perfectly caramelized crunchy sugar and fruit pieces on top. Also the custard dip -great for sharing, Soy matcha latte was good, not too sweet. Nice to have water fountain and plastic cups. Read more
