What a great addition to the West End! Excited to have an authentic Vietnamese restaurant in Alameda! Ordered: Vermicelli Bowl w Lemongrass Pork - delicious and fresh! The portions were generous. Egg rolls- very good and not too oily; loved the pickled veggies that came with it Crunchy Kale- really good and the dressing was good. Portions were generous Vietnamese Coffee- so good! Strawberry Mango Smoothie - refreshing and my son loved it! Not overly sweet! The wait wasn't so long, and service was very nice. There was a long line after the farmers market but the Saturday (all women) team took it in stride! Not bad for day 2 in business! Will def be coming back again to support! read more

Love this place! First when we drove by we thought the food was already made and they just served you like Chipotle does. But no, you order and wait. There really isn't any seating. 3 small bistro table indoors but everyone is waiting for their orders and sitting so I wouldn't plan on a sit down meal. There's minimal seating outside but also full of people waiting for their orders. There is a bathroom. The wait wasnt too bad. We ordered the rice plate with lemon grass pork and chicken. And the vermicelli with pork and an eggroll. It was delicious. I definitely recommend stopping by for some To-go! read more

Mango and Mint impressed us with their sandwiches (we got the spicy chicken and combo banh mi) and excellent iced coffee. The mint mango pineapple smoothie was a bit sweet; consider asking for less sugar. In the restaurant, seating was limited, but outdoor options are available. We opted for takeout since we were heading home anyways. The customer service was outstanding, kind, and helpful. read more

Serving are huge. Service is fast and friendly. Banh Mi - too big, high quality I didn't try the rest. read more

Cute little place! The workers was very nice! The Banh Mi that I ordered was huuuuuge! Very tasty too! I think I got the Char siu pork. Would like to try this place again when I'm in town. read more

I came to this place because some a**hole on Yelp came to this brand new business to talk smack and give it a one star review. Businesses are having a hard enough time let alone put up with spoiled brats that come to a new business to talk smack! Obviously they don't know Jack about Vietnamese food saying that the chicken could have been more "lemon-y". The marinade is lemongrass, not lemon. So I had to try this place because that jerk posted a bad review. I believe some of the staff from this place are from Ba Le in Oakland. I ordered the grilled pork sandwich and the pork and chicken rice plate! The sandwich was a bit pricey at $12 but is way bigger than Cam Huong and Ba Le. The lemongrass was pronounced and it was absolutely delicious (I'm Vietnamese). It was packed with plenty of meat, ample pickled veggies, and tender pork! The rice plate though is where the value is at. I ordered the lemongrass pork/chicken rice plate. For only $15, it was enough to feed 2 people. Fresh cucumbers, lettuce, tomatoes to perfectly offset the savory pork and chicken. The fish sauce that came with this is just like my grandmas... it was perfect! The staff was friendly and had smiles all the way around. You could even see them making the fresh spring rolls. The wait was longer than what I would have wanted (20 mins) but they just opened and were busy with plenty of customers. The place is more for takeout although there were limited tables and chairs outside. Overall a great experience and would definitely come back. Probably better to call order in advance! Hands down Best Banh Mi in Alameda for sure! Very authentic and not watered down. read more

They really do it as well as anyone. I have had several of the Bahn Mis and you cannot go wrong. I would probably rank the lemongrass chicken as my top choice, but their pork is also excellent. If I were to recommend there perfect lunch - get the lemongrass chicken with a pineapple smoothie. I do like dropping in here and eating on the sidewalk, BUT I am extremely happy that they have added online ordering. It makes it much easier to grab something on my way home from the office. They have been a great addition to Alameda(my top sandwich spot now) and I hope they are here for years to come. read more

First time trying and omg it's so good!!!! Their strawberry mango smoothie (with apple juice) is fire!!!! Also got their flan and grilled chicken bahn mi. Everything was so fresh. Will be back. Thank you! read more

Absolutely delicious food, freshly prepared and the freshest ingredients. This wonderful find has such a positive vibe, probably emanating from the very kind and friendly staff and proprietor. read more

There is no doubt that the quantity of the items are quite generous. I ordered the combo sandwich and shrimp spring rolls. They use the correct baguettes, meaning the kind that is supposed to take off a layer of skin from the roof of your mouth. Lol I didn't care so much for the spring rolls. In this case, the size was too large, which didn't mean the quality was better. The julienne cut carrots were cut too large, and carrots are not traditional used in spring rolls. I'd rather have cucumbers. read more

Vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian and meat lover options. So so good. Amazing peanut sauce! Spring rolls, Samwhiches, fresh fruit.. coffee. I love this place! read more

Fantastic banh mi sandwiches and spring rolls! Both the BBQ pork and spicy chicken sandwiches are stuffed with fresh vegetables, tender meats, and the right amount of sauce so they're moist enough without being soggy. The spring rolls are the size of my forearm and perfectly crisp and crunchy. I can tell I'm going to be craving this often. read more

What a delightful little spot. I love to support new local businesses like Mango & Mint. Mango & Mint had a soft opening on 3/15/2024. The menu centers around Banh Mi sandwiches. There are 6 types of proteins to choose from: spicy chicken, lemongrass chicken, lemongrass pork, bbq pork, tofu mushroom and combination. PRO-TIP: If you ask they will gladly add a fried egg to any of the Banh Mi sandwiches. I highly recommend. Its only a $2 additional fee. The other highlight of the menu is the signature smoothies. They range from $7.50 to $8.00. My favorite is the pineapple coconut. Its made with coconut water, coconut milk, kale, cashews, pineapple, honey, and coconut flakes. Yes, that's a lot of coconut, and it is on the sweet side. So I recommend saving that smoothie for a dessert! read more

Was very hungry. Was hoping to go a different restaurant next door, but it had closed, so I came here. Big mistake. I got the chicken salad. I was expecting a big fresh salad topped with shredded white meat chicken, but this was basically some cabbage, some of it dry and brown, a few sweet carrots, and really terrible chicken - it was in little misshapen pieces, with of globs fat on every piece. Seemed old, like whatever was left from an actual chicken they had cooked a few days ago. I asked if they had any fresh white meat chicken, but they didn't! I tried to pull all of the gross pieces of chicken out of the cabbage, but I was just so grossed out at the point. Won't be back. read more

Way overpriced Vietnamese food!! Just went here with a few friends recently got a few sandwiches and they were good but nothing special just bigger sandwiches with more bread lol and definitely not worth the high prices. There are so many inexpensive Vietnamese spots that are way less money and just as good or better here in the bay. Extremely overpriced basic tasting Vietnamese food. Ambience is a small little comfy spot and service is decent. read more

This joint is close by and my go to when I'm craving a banh mi. My hubs loves the combo and I'm so appreciative that they serve a vegetarian banh mi. They also have wonderful spring rolls and vegetarian cha gio. They also offer bun (noodle salad). My go to banh mi joint when I don't want to schlep it to Oakland. It's a must try. Fresh made to order food. read more

Awesome, welcome addition to Webster St/West End :) Everything is so fresh! We got our order via Door Dash so I cannot comment on in person experience. The food is SO fresh! We got: Vermicelli Noodle bowl with pork- add on egg roll Crunchy Kale Salad - added avocado (perfect!) Vietnamese iced coffee Egg roll very tasty and not greasy I loved Le Cheval's iced coffee! This is pretty close. Next time will go in person, but you should definitely give them a try you won't be disappointed:) read more

Love this little place for take out. Very clean. Friendly, helpful employees. Excellent wonton soup. Also enjoyed the delicious egg rolls and banh mi with crispy french bread that was so good! read more

I tried the banh mi and the vermicelli bowl and both were delicious! Great flavors and well made. There's two tables for inside seating and we went for a late dinner so we were able to eat inside, great meal! read more

Ordered online to pick up in the way home, super easy and ready quickly. Got a smoothie and lemongrass chicken noodle bowl. Everything tasted so fresh! Portion was large. I'll be coming back to try other dishes! read more

This was so delicious. The banh mi was massive and everything was so fresh and delicious. The best banh mi I've ever had. Also I came in ten minutes before closing and was served quickly with wonderful customer service. read more

first of all, i'm impressed by their creativity of using the already yellow & green theme of the building and translate it to mango & mint. secondly, they're pushing out delicious and quick vietnamese dishes. you get a ton of food in the bowls & rice plates and the banh mis are huge. the drinks were on the sweet side for me, but i'll try a few others and see if there's one that is more to my taste. read more

I have order here numerous times mostly pork vemachelli bowl and chicken spring rolls. I added avocado to the chicken spring rolls once but it wasn't necessary so best to save calories. The people making it are fun to watch that being said I now prefer to order for lunch, I ordered for dinner on a Wednesday and was told 30 minutes over the phone but it was not ready for 60 minutes. I will be back, it is really good. read more

great portions, great price and great flavor! easily one of the best bahn mi's in the bay area

I think that it's good for the price. The portions are huge. Initially I thought the food prices were a bit high, but it was a lot of food. I'm not sure if service was fast or slow because I ordered a pick up order through door dash. The restaurant is tiny and I'm not sure if I would eat in there. It's near my job and I could see myself coming here for lunch. But.......taste wise...it was just fine. The spring rolls were super good, but they had way too much lettuce. And the lettuce wasn't to hide the fact that there wasn't a lot of meat or noodles, etc. there was just TONS of lettuce. I had to pull some out. But if the two things I had, the spring rolls were my favorite. I'd go back to get them again. The vermicelli plate...was ...ok. The chicken wasn't that good, it wasn't anything special. The dressing was a tad bit too sweet to me. I didn't like it. I would recommend MintLeafs Saigon bowl & lemongrass roll over this. They come up to about the same price. read more

Ordered here twice and food is excellent! Bahn Mi was thick and hearty - bread has nice crunch on the outside while being soft inside. They don't skimp on the fillings either! Got the Combo and the Pork with Fried Egg and it was delicious Good to split with someone or save the other half for a later meal. Spring rolls were made fresh and refreshing to the taste buds. Dunk it in their peanut sauce, drizzle on Sriracha, and take a nice big bite Son got the chicken rice plate and WOW! Huge portions as well! He usually finishes up his plate but he was full halfway through the container. Tried their mixed berries smoothies in a hot day and it's soooo good! Made fresh and it hit all the right spots! Keep it up ladies, don't change a single thing on the menu! Great value for the $$, you will leave satisfied read more

This is my first time eating here and it definitely will not be my last! The Banh Mi I had is the biggest, freshest, and best tasting that I have ever had! Their Vietnamese coffee is yummy too. It is more of a takeout spot however they do have 2 small tables inside and 2 outside. I was able to work on my laptop. They are nice and friendly. read more

Cute little spot with tasty quick Vietnamese grub. The bahn mi, egg rolls, and shake were delicious and the service was fast and friendly. Great for lunch and has seating outside so I can wait with my dog on the way back from a walk at the park read more

I'm so happy to have found such an amazing Vietnamese spot in my own neighborhood! Thus far, I've had the bbq pork bánh mì, shrimp spring rolls, and Vietnamese coffee. Everything was delicious, made to order, and fairly priced considering the generous portion sizes. Mango and Mint has easily become one of my favorite, local food spots! read more

Great staff and quality for affordable pricing. Large selection of fresh authentic Vietnamese food that is reasonable priced. Small inside but great service and take out read more

Okay I waited and waited for this place to open. Then I wanted everything on the menu! I went in I ordered the spring rolls but the peanut sauce looked suspect I couldn't eat it. It probably was super good but it had began to separate. Then I ordered the Bun me it was okay but it didn't knock the palate for me. I'm going to try it again because they are super nice. She returned the rolls and refunded me! Nice people deserve a do over! Super good customer service goes along way! read more

Holy cow this place is great!! Pass by it everyday and finally tried it today and it was so best Banh Mi that I can ever remember eating. Super fat and loaded!! Also got a Bun vermicelli bowl and that was amazing also but didn't get to eat it fresh because the banh mi was so filling. God bless this place and I'm never moving out of Alameda now. read more

So good and so delicious - all the ingredients are laid out fresh and behind the glass - everything here looks locally run/owned and you'll be happy knowing you're supporting a small business. The Banh Mi's are out of the world - they're easily the best Banh Mi sandwiches on Alameda island and possibly Bay Area. This is coming from a guy who goes to Sacramento for some REAL traditional Banh Mi's and I have a knack of knowing what's what. Super affordable (pricier than the "cheap" Banh Mi's) and super delicious. read more

The sandwiches are great! The staff is so friendly and goes beyond what is expected. Food portions are generous. I love the rolls both the vegetarian and shrimp rolls were fresh and delicious. I can not wait to come back again. read more

I must have gone on an off day because for some unknown reason they kept our food hostage while we waited an abnormally long time. They just let the food sit on the counter and call out higher numbers than ours. read more

The banh mi were so good! They are a little expensive but it's worth it when it tastes so delicious. I've paid for food that were the same price and not tasty so there's that. We also got a Viet ice coffee which was strong and tasty. The employees here were also very nice, definitely coming back again soon! read more
