MNGO cafe

Just down the street from Itacho Suahi is MNGO Cafe. This was delicious amd a great place tonhave a sweet treat after some great sushi. Everything we ordered and we saw people eating looked delish. We had the mango sticky rice bowl, mango pudding bowl and the creme Brule bowl. Oh man, fantastic. We will visit MNGO next time I'm in town. Try it, you will love it....if you like mangos. Lol.

First time visiting this place last June. The desserts were delicious especially the mango sticky rice. The shaved ice was good too and good for sharing if you aren't super hungry. Will definitely visit again.

My first time to be here. I was going to eat the sticky rice but it sold out. So I tried the MNGO and it was incredible. The shave ice are soft and fluffy. There are mangos and mango pudding inside it. I love it and highly recommend this dessert place.

Delicious delicious drinks and desserts! Love every thing I’ve gotten here! I typically come several times a month to enjoy something! I can’t recommend MNGO enough! Also amazing they have a parking lot! I’ve also hosted many journal clubs and journal dates and they’ve been so accommodating for it!

A delicious combination of texture and flavor. The dessert wasn't too sweet so we were able to try 3 different flavors. The original MNGO flavor was the best. Will definitely be coming back.

I absolutely love their mango shaved ice—it's incredibly soft, fluffy, and melts in your mouth with the perfect texture. The only downside is that the mango pieces inside don’t seem freshly cut, so they lack a bit of freshness. That said, the overall flavor is still delicious! It’s a great spot to satisfy cravings, and I enjoy coming here occasionally with friends for a sweet treat. Very satisfying!

A great little dessert place in convoy that will leave you wanting more. They have a range of shaved ice and smoothies and ice cream, each as delicious as the next. They are fairly busy but their service is pretty quick to take care of you, though for shaved ice they let you know how long the tentative wait is. The inside is very cozy and welcoming. Check this place out the next time you’re in the area, you won’t be disappointed. Plus the portions are huge, perfect for sharing!

They just remodel. So cute . 💚

We went there with two little girls of my boyfriend. As I remember many times here you love the desserts & everything, especially Thai tea with Boba. Nice atmosphere and good service.

This place was great while it lasted. Came here for the first time during COVID and fell in love. Most deserts are great and for a while one of my favorites was the crème brûlée however....they no longer serve that and have replaced it with a "Lava" crème brûlée instead. Why? I really don't know. This new desert is more like a large scoop of liquidity crème with a hard shell sugared topping and fruit. I can't really explain this desert but it's not good. Service is also really good. Super busy all the time but we tend to get seating when needed. If the owners are reading this...PLEASE bring back the old crème brûlée. I know business is great with or without my patronage but please consider bringing it back.

Beautiful! Starting off with the food itself (on a scale 1-10): Mango Sago-8, Mango Sundae-3, Green Tea Kakigori-3, Butterfly Pea Lychee Kakigori-9. This is the first time I've ever tried mango sago and I was pleasantly surprised, after seeing it on Instagram and I was very intrigued by it, glad I was because it tasted amazing. The mango sundae on the other hand was not very good. I thought it would be more like your casual sundae, but this was just not it. I think it's more of an acquired taste rather than something everyone would like. The green tea kakigori was not very good. It tasted like a mix of medicine and sugar. Unlike the butterfly pea lychee which was so good, it had a floral taste which was unique in a good way. Service was alright, not much other than ordering at the counter. The interior was designed very well. The mango tree in the middle is great for taking pictures, and the lighting was nice as well. It was very aesthetic and welcoming.

Ode to Sweet Mango would be this cafe's song. Every dessert listed on the menu is a mango lover's dream come true. We had the Oh Mango dessert with sticky rice and choice of ice cream (mango sorbet of course!) Will definitely come again, even on a busy Sat. night^

Heard it was really good from friends so we came here. The person taking our order was friendly and helpful. When you first walk in, ask you think it's... is their AC broken?? It was hot and a bit humid. But then you just become acclimated. Husband got the Thai milk tea and he said it wasn't very sweet. He usually finishes his drink in 10-15 minutes... but he still had it when we were heading back home to OC hours later. I got the mango coconut cream smoothie but needed more mangoes. Had way too much cream and all you taste is the cream. Also, since mangoes are not in season, it was very tart. MNGO sticky rice kakigori was good but not very try flavorful. The sticky rice was hard to break apart, needed more coconut liquid, and needed more mango. Want to go try when mangoes are in season.

We visited for a quick matcha stop and were thoroughly impressed. The interior was huge with large signs and giant mango tree in the middle. There was a line but it went by quickly. The seating area was so welcoming and could be used to do homework or to just hang out with friends. The drink itself was delicious and the matcha didn't completely overpower the drink. Love this place!

Wonderful service and very friendly staff!! We ordered the OMG and while the presentation was so adorable, the taste didn't quite hit the mark. But we did enjoy the mango ice cream in the combo as well as the actual mangoes which were very sweet!!! The sticky rice and the sauce weren't our favorite. The shop is also so cutely decorated!

Came here on a Friday night and it was total madness.....the place was absolutely packed solid. After waiting in line and waiting for seats to open up the buzzer rang for us to get our food. This place does not disappoint. We ordered the OMG and Kakigori in Matcha and Taro flavors......the shaved ice was very fluffy and the fillings were good. An absolute gem of a place not to just hang out but for deserts or even after a night of drinking. Parking is really tough in the plaza so be patient or park far and just walk. The atmosphere is chill with top music playing in the background. The bathroom could use cleaning but you would need a full time person just for that with the amount of people that night.

Omg! This place is just pure mangoventure lol. Everything you see in the menu is inspired by the fruit mango.. hence the name :) The service is fast and efficient cause our desserts came quick and they really took their time crafting it. The ambiance is just like any other dessert place but with a mango twist.. literally mango decorations everywhere.. it really fits on the theme of this place. My friends and I ordered their mango and cookies/cream bingsu, which is basically the Korean version of a shaved ice. The ice is perfectly shaved and was airy when you first bite on it. Feels like you never get full by it haha. They served syrup too to enhanced the flavor. They have fresh ingredients inside it.. so worth for the price of $15 per bingsu. We ordered their Mango Sago too. It has bunch of tapioca on the dish with mango ice cream and mango pudding. They really lived up to their name and I had a mango overload after. Overall, heck yea I'm going back here again and it's great recommendation to all that loves a sweet treat :)

If you love a nice mango dessert, you gotta try this spot, where they have different varieties of mango deliciousness! We tried the mango platter with sticky rice, jello, ice cream and mango sago and both were sooo good and filling! Plenty of indoor seating. This place gets busy, it is in the heart of Convoy area.

Great dessert spot!! Our favorite was the mango kakigori. The ice melts in your mouth and wasn't overly sweet. The cream on top was the perfect touch and the condensed milk and mango puree on the side was perfect when you were looking to change up the flavor. The mango chunks at the bottom were a pleasant surprise. The taro kakigori didn't have much flavor, very mild taro flavor with taro chunks at the bottom. The mango is definitely the way to go. Cute inside decor with lots of tables. Easy parking as it is further off the main convoy st with a parking lot out front.

This place was yummy and cute. You order at the counter and take your number to a table. We ordered a taro sago and crème brûlée. Both were really good but we definitely didn't need that much food after dinner.

If you're a fan of tropical flavors and sweet indulgence, Mngo Cafe definitely delivers! We had the chance to try three of their offerings, and each one left us impressed. We'll be back next time to try their famous Kakigori (Japanese Snow Ice). The Mngo Sago was an absolute standout. The creamy coconut milk paired with the sweetness of ripe mango and the chewy texture of sago pearls made for a perfect balance of flavors and textures. It was light yet indulgent, and the mango was incredibly fresh and vibrant. This dessert is a must-try if you're looking for something refreshing and satisfying, especially if you love tropical fruits. The Mngo Coconut Cream Smoothie was another hit. It had a rich, creamy texture thanks to the coconut cream, but the real star was the bright, naturally sweet mango. It wasn't overly sugary, just perfectly balanced with a smooth, velvety consistency. The tropical flavors blended beautifully, making it the perfect drink to complement the desserts or just enjoy on its own. Refreshing and satisfying without being too heavy -- I highly recommend it! For something a little more decadent, the Chocolate Cream Cake was divine. The cake layers were light yet rich, and the chocolate cream was smooth and velvety, offering that perfect chocolatey sweetness. It wasn't overly heavy, and the flavor was deep without being overly sweet or extra. If you're a chocolate lover, this one's a treat you won't want to miss. I'm a chocoholic and I absolutely love it when businesses (especially dessert shops) do their chocolate desserts right! Mngo Cafe knows how to craft desserts that highlight fresh, tropical flavors with just the right balance of sweetness. Whether you're indulging in the creamy coconut mango combinations or savoring a rich chocolate dessert, each item was absolutely delicious. It's the perfect spot if you're in the mood for something sweet, refreshing, and full of vibrant flavors. Plus, the huge fake mango tree in the middle is such a vibe. Very instagrammable and super unique! I highly recommend trying it all, you won't be disappointed!

MNGO has been one of my favorite dessert spots, and I felt I had to echo just how great they are. No matter the season they have a great dessert option, I personally love their taro and mango sago, mango sundae, and the OMG. During the summer I love to get the mango passion fruit tea! And you obviously can't go wrong with one of their kakigoris. Highly recommend you visit with or without company! The service is great and there's plenty of seating to enjoy a solo date or chat the time away over some yummy treats with your friends!

Super tasty dessert spot! Tried their MNGO Sundae and it was really good with the sticky rice.

This is an Asian dessert spot that, as the name suggests, specializes in mango. This is a fast casual sit-down place where you order, bus your own tables, etc You can get a bunch of drinks such as mango smoothies, tea, etc as well as shaved ice and some specialty mango desserts. We opted to get the OMG (Oh-Man-Go) that had mango pudding, mango sticky rice, and choice of ice cream which we of course opted for the mango ice cream. The sticky rice is very flavorful and coconut-y, and the mango pudding is smooth and just the right amount of sweetness. The mango ice cream is quite decent. However, the fresh mango is unripe and it was sour and lacking sweetness, so that was a small miss. We also got the mango matcha smoothie, where I was able to taste both the mango and matcha equally without one overpowering the other. It was quite a substantial drink, so it was great to share for 2 people.

We came here for dessert on daughter's recommendation. We were not disappointed! Everything was very tasty and the food came out fairly quickly even though they were busy. Server was very nice. They offer a variety of drinks, desserts and kakigori.

Arrived to a long line on a sunday night but it moved at a decent pace. I ordered the new mango sticky rice yakigor, which arrived shortly after ordering. Absolutely loved the kinda salty, thick coconut cream that comes with the snow ice. Not too coconuty but just perfectly compliments the mango flavor. The sticky rice was unexpected masses in ball form though. Came with about 3 balls. I didn't particularly like the form the sticky rice came in but overall still really liked this. Solid place with lots of seating and cute decor.

I have been coming here for years and wanted something sweet after eating next door. I was greeted by a friendly cashier and ordered the sticky rice with Thai tea ice cream on the side ($10). It was perfectly sweet and savory but I definitely wanted a bigger portion. The place is cute and you can sit under a "mango tree" but the floors were sticky when I was there. I'll be back next time I'm in the area, though!

Most favorite was the kakigori. The shaved ice was smooth and just melted at the touch. Had a sweet but not too sweet flavor. I could have done with out the additional mango because all I needed was the condensed milk. The trio custard dip was just ok to me. Nothing wow'd me to want to get it again. The sundae was pretty standard. The place is spacious, with ample seating. And since we came on an early Thursday afternoon the place wasn't busy at all so we were tended to quickly. They provide a little pager for when your order is ready so you can find a place to sit while you wait for your goodies. I would definitely come back.

It's always fascinating to see how mango dessert shops get creative with their menu. Though I've seen my fair share of options in the Chinatowns of Las Vegas and Houston, MNGO Cafe adds to the uniqueness with desserts such as their Oh Man Go (a mixed platter of mango delicacies) and sticky rice. I opted for the mango coconut cream smoothie since I'm a fan of the simpler desserts, and it was quite the treat. However, make sure to mix the drink thoroughly because the cream tastes kind of sour by itself (but pairs well with the mango). A couple of my friends' desserts that I sampled: Black sugar milk tea - standard, enjoyable, not as creamy as some other shops. 4/5 Matcha green tea ice - yuck. The matcha ice by itself is super bitter, and pairing it with the sticky rice does not redeem the taste at all. 1/5 Mango sticky rice - personally not a fan of bing su, but this one is quite flavorful. It also comes with extra condensed milk and mango juice if you need more to finish the ice. 4/5 Oh man go (OMG) - cute dish! I recommend this one for all the indecisive people out there. 4.5/5 This place gets absolutely packed with a line 10 customers deep on Saturday evenings. Personally, I didn't mind waiting as the interior looks pleasant and my drink still came out in 5 minutes. It's not the most mind-blowing mango dessert shop I've been to, but it's a treat nonetheless and serves its niche in San Diego.

i always end my night here whenever i visit sd. but... whenever i get any flavor other than mango, im always disappointed. the thai tea kakigori had a light flavor (kinda like thai tea when you make it with powder lol). it's supposed to come with various toppings like grass jelly and crystal boba, but mine didn't come with crystal boba. it comes with a side of condensed milk and syrup. i didn't try the syrup, but the condensed milk elevated the shaved ice.

If mango is your love language, then MNGO Cafe is the place to be! This is a mango-lovers dessert paradise! My friends and I bought 4 of their mango drinks, and wow...they all hit! Nothing was too sweet and the drinks were made quickly! If you like matcha, I highly reccommend the Mango Matcha Latte! Now the dessert! You definitely come here for the Dessert. The OH-Man-Go "mango sticky rice" is absolutely delicious! I could probably eat it every day and be happy. We also ordered the Mango Creme brulee and Mango Kakigori! The desserts took a few minutes to make, but came out perfect! I can tell there is truly attention to detail when it comes to crafting these deserts. Overall, if mango is your favorite fruit, you need to get here ASAP--the vibes are amazing and you're stomach will be in mango heaven

Large Asian Dessert Place in a plaza with a lot of parking. Someone is always there to take your order and answer your questions. Clean place with simple decors. I like the best is their mango sticky rice, but not much for the crème brûlée (they could do better, I feel it's too much flour, not that creamy. I have had much better one elsewhere.) Not a fan of shaved ice dessert, but it's good. And the taro desert, they put too much tiny tapioca balls. I will come back for the mango sticky rice.

This was our second time coming to MNGO. They have their own parking lot and usually has spots open to easily park. MNGO itself is rather large and has a lot of seating, but it could get so crowded, so if you are a larger group it can be tough sometimes trying to find a spot. We ordered their Creme Brûlée and it was ok. The wait for desserts take roughly 15-20 minutes and the Creme Brûlée came with a side of mango ice cream. This is a good spot to chill with friends, or bring people from out of town.

Cute place. My daughters and their friends go here all the time. I finally got a chance to try it since I was in the area. Very nice and efficient staff. They keep the place very clean. The desserts were yummy. Would definitely go back.

Casual ambiance, friendly service. Some empty tables were dirty. We had the OMG mango dessert, mango sago, mango kakigori. Mango kakigori was good. OMG mango dessert was good but the sticky rice portions seem small. Mango sago was okay, mangos were tart. Maybe will come back when mangos are in season.

I went on a Sunday night and it was pretty busy but I was easily able to find a seat. We got the Mango Kakigori and it was sooo good! The balls of sticky rice were my favorite part and they added a little hint of savory to the dessert, it was a fun twist on mango sticky rice. You do have to allow 30 minutes for the preparation of the Kakigori, but it was totally worth it in my opinion!

Very cute location, the tree decoration were very nice, the bench seating along the wall did have a lot of holes in the cushions from prolonged wear and tear. The mango sundae was really good, it came with 3 different types of sticky rice that were nice and warm and tasted amazing. The strawberry yogurt was good, I would recommend that you mix it well, if you don't then the last part of your drink it's just going to be plain yogurt flavor. The staff were quick and not very talkative. They hand you a little buzzer that goes off when your food is ready. Overall a nice place to get a sweet treat

We had the OMG oh man go, and it was a nice spread of a variety of desserts that MNGO has to offer. My son liked the mango ice cream and mango jello looking dessert. I liked the sweet sticky rice and fresh mango with coconut sauce. The service was very fast but likely because it was raining outside so not many people out. We hardly waited 7 mins for our dessert. The inside is nice it was a fake indoor tree in the middle and lots of seats around. Nice and chill place to enjoy with kids and family.

I visited this place a few years ago and I've never had ice like this. It's so light and flavorful. Most ice places are too icy and sharp but this is pleasant. It was definitely busy and popular for good reason. They gave us await time but it's worth the wait. Everytime I'm in San Diego I try and come here!!! There's a lot of families and young people around but it's good for everyone!

MNGO Cafe is located in the heart of Convoy in San Diego, and it's a haven for mango enthusiasts. This cafe specializes in mango desserts, drinks, and Japanese shaved ice. There's plenty of parking available in the lot, which makes the visit convenient. I visited on a Saturday around brunch time, and while there was a good number of customers, no lines. The indoor seating was adequate. Ambiance: The decor inside is a standout feature. In the middle of the room, there's a faux mango tree, which adds to the cafe's charm. The color scheme is bright and inviting, reminiscent of fresh mangos. The theming is thoughtfully done and really enhances the experience. What I Tried: 1) h Man-Go ($12.95): This dessert was a popular choice--almost every table had it. It consists of fresh mango, pandan sticky rice, pudding, and your choice of ice cream. I went with the mango ice cream, which had a refreshing, natural taste, similar to a sorbet. The sticky rice balls were a pleasant surprise, with a complex flavor that added a unique twist. The fresh mango was sweet and perfectly ripe. 2) Vietnamese Sea Salt Cream Cold Brew ($6.25): If mango or shaved ice isn't your thing, this drink is a great alternative. The sea salt cream was unexpectedly good and addictive, pairing nicely with the bitter cold brew. It's a well-balanced option for coffee lovers. Overall: MNGO Cafe is a delightful spot for anyone who loves mangoes or is looking for a unique dessert experience. The ambiance is fun and inviting, the food is creative and well-executed, and the service is efficient. I'd highly recommend giving it a try if you're in the area.

This was our first time here, overall good experience. We asked the worker what he would recommend since it was our first time, and he recommended the mango sticky rice due to that dish being popular and what they're known for! & it was so delicious from the sticky rice, mango and mango ice cream. We also got the matcha mango smoothies, and coconut mango smoothie. Personally I wasn't a fan of the smoothie (matcha) however my boyfriend enjoyed the coconut mango smoothies. Next time I'll try the shaved ice that they have!

We went here after dinner to satisfy our sweet tooth after having on it on our list for quite a while. We got the mango kakigori which lived up to its name with a good amount of mango pudding at the bottom too. The price is also fair and enough dessert for two people in my opinion.

MNGO is a great place for after dinner dessert. There is plenty of seating for you and friends to share a dessert and hang out. When we placed our order with the cashier, there was a sign stating long how the wait would be for kakigori at that point. I loved the transparency. Butterfly Pea Lychee Kakigori (4/5) - medium sized bowl filled with some crystal boba and lychee and topped with shaved ice colored with butterfly pea. The dessert came with a side of condensed milk and lychee puree. OMG - Oh Man Go (4.5/5) - ripe mango, warm stick rice balls, jiggly mango pudding, and mango ice cream topped with a slightly salty coconut cream

creative local joint in Kearney Mesa including boba with real lychee pieces and their famous delicious shave ice. on the pricier side, but bobas and drinks are typically priced at about $6 a drink. everything mango!

WOW. I am so obsessed with this place! I tried it for the first time today and I am happy to say that it definitely won't be my last. The place itself has such a cute interior! It's also pretty big and has a public bathroom. The desserts are seriously to die for!! The portions are big, so I do recommend sharing. This is the perfect place to come for a birthday, celebration or any type of pick-me-up. The staff are pretty nice as well.

I've been visiting this store since they first opened, and their desserts have always been sweet and unique. They put a lot of thought into arranging their plates, so not only does your dessert taste wonderful... it also looks pretty! My favorite thing to order here is their OMG plate, which comes with mango sticky rice and a side of ice cream. I always get the coconut milk ice cream. My partner ordered the Coco Drink with sago. We enjoyed that one too because the coconut milk was a nice flavor combination with the mango puree. Customer service is good here as well- the staff are friendly. However, the tables are not always the cleanest. You'll see dishes from previous customers left at the tables for extended time periods if the staff is busy.

I have been to MNGO several times now, and each time I have always ordered something different. This was my second time ordering a kakigori, which I believe is what they are most known for. I ordered the taro kakigori, and it was good! You could really taste the taro flavor, but it mostly was concentrated on the outermost layer of the shaved ice. I loved that they also hid several different toppings inside of the shaved ice. It was a delightful little surprise! Of the toppings, I absolutely loved the taro pudding. I genuinely wish, however, that they provided customers with more of the 'sauce' that you drizzle on top because that truly elevated the taste of the kakigori. Although I thoroughly enjoyed the kakigori, I rated my experience a 4/5 because there was not really anything special that set this apart from all of the other dessert shops in San Diego that sell kakigoris. Overall, I would definitely recommend individuals to check this spot out! The shop additionally has a nice atmosphere as there is a lot of seating available!

This cafe is a great place to hang out and an even better place to grab desserts! The interior is well decorated and has plenty of seating. There's also plenty of desserts options! My favorite has to be the kakigori or shaved ice. It's not too sweet and the shaved ice is very fine. It's also big enough to share with a group! The only down side is when they're busy, shaved ice orders may take a while. As for the service, it works like a fast casual spot. You just order at the front and they'll call your number when your order is ready.

As an avid mango lover, I've always wanted to visit and loved the experience! My friend and I visited for a study date, where many tables & benches for different group sizes were arranged around a cute mango tree, loved the aesthetic!! Plenty of outlets and free WiFi, and their desserts were absolutely delicious! First time trying mango sticky rice did not disappoint, the coconut cream complimented the colorful sticky rice balls with creamy mango ice cream and perfectly ripe mango!! It definitely gets more busy during rush hours along with the noise level, but it's a great place to sit down and catchup with friends and family! Can't stop thinking about their mango ice cream, so I'm coming back for more!

Fun, vibey and young spot offering kakigori and mango sticky rice, beautifully crafted, and pretty damn good too! LYCHEE BUTTERFLY PEA KAKIGORI This was so beautiful. First of all, the butterfly pea is a nice touch because when you add the lychee juice over the top, it turns the blue into purple and adds a beautiful color. The lychee and jelly at the bottom is delicious and adds some nice texture. Soft, fluffy ice composes the kakigori and some cream on top for some sweet richness- well done! MANGO STICKY RICE The sticky rice is multicolored but don't let that fool you, it's quality and beautifully chewy. The mango is fresh, though I've had fresher. However, I'm being picky because I've had some pretty DANG good mango sticky rice. I would still put this in the -great- category of mango sticky rice. Yummy!

Cute place, menu is placed on the side where practically one party can look at the menu at a time. There is a huge selection of different desserts to choose from. Customer service was ok there was a lot of workers but weren't able to order for awhile due to no one being at the cashier. Cha mango $6.95 Vary tart to much Tajin, not much Chamoy Mango Sago: $8.95 Sago balls but seemed like just rice, mango chunks,mango pudding, mango ice cream in a bowl with coconut milk. Son said he would have preferred it more slushy frozen than so liquidy. Cannoli & Cream: $9.95 Outside crust of a Cannoli with Oreo crumbs inside and whipped cream on the outside holes with chocolate sauce on the side to drizzle. Was wanting a real Cannoli my little one was disappointed, so was husband. Mango Sticky Rice thought we were ordering OMG! But when we got the plate it wasn't close to the photo. Was around $11.99 I believe Spent $40 with change ran my card and didn't see the tip option just signed and continued and was charge $46 with change guess they gave themselves a tip, Wasn't impressed with anything we got.

Mango-based dessert cafes always hit different, and MNGO Cafe was just another example of that! Definitely a must go if you love mangos! I got the mango yakult, which was absolutely delicious and hit the spot after a long day; however, after seeing the kakigori, the mango sago, and the other dessert options, I knew I have to try them the next time I was there. Ordering was very simple, with the option of ordering drinks on a self-serve screen or ordering desserts at the counter. Inside, there is plenty of seating and seems like a great place to go to either hang out with friends or have a date. I will definitely be back to try all the other dessert options!

This place is a gourmet Asian dessert spot hidden in a super casual strip mall. But don't let that fool you. The desserts are amazing and refreshing and the fruits are always fresh. The only thing fancy about this place is the desserts. So don't get your hopes up high regarding the ambience unfortunately. They do have a cute artificial mango tree in the middle though.

Busy place which is good for business. But I think it's a bit over rated. I'm rounding it off to 4 stars because the Mango isn't 100% fresh fruit. A mango puree taste is over-powering the bits of mango at the bottom of the ice. The ice is shaved very fine. The $15 cost is also very expensive for a shaved ice that is not flavored with 100% fresh fruit. Lighting and ambience is great and matches the overall yellow mango look.

MNGO has been on my bookmarks since literally college (like 2015-2016ish), so I had VERY high expectations coming in. A friend who works nearby and who loves food & dessert as much as I do told me to come here instead of Kaki&Gori, and I'm glad I took her suggestion. We ordered the classic mango kakigori (I wish the mango sticky rice one was on the menu though) and it honestly blew my mind. I've had so many different "shaved snow"-type desserts throughout my life, and the contrasting textures from the cream, fluffy shaved ice, fresh mango, and the mango pudding hidden underneath was truly a marvel for me. My bf was full before dinner and said he'd only have one bite, but he ended up eating his full share, so I knew he liked it too. Please open one in Rowland Heights or Las Vegas, I think MNGO would make a killing in either place.

What a treat and so glad we found this place on Yelp. For all mango lovers this is the place to be and eat. From mango smoothies, mango ice cream, mango pudding, ice cream and so much more. Not too sweet, in season and refreshing. Great size, plenty of parking and we love the mango sticky rice along with the sesame peanut balls.

Came for an afternoon beverage / dessert. Both drinks that we had were very good: solid B+! Overall experience: C+ at best. I had a "mango coconut cream smoothie". Very mango-ey, not just filled with ice like many other places. A little thicker than what I expected, but overall, a good smoothie. My wife's "Coco drink mango" had a huge serving of creamy coconut milk with a dash of mango puree. I actually liked her drink a bit more. We ended up mixing the two and definitely ended up with better beverages. I saw some of the other desserts being served and they all looked very good, I mean it's fresh fruit, and tempting ice cream. The failure of the restaurant, however, is how dirty it is. At first I thought they were understaffed. But then, more and more employees came out from the kitchen and we counted a total of six people. Five were chatting and only one was cleaning up. I guess it's good to come for takeout, but I wouldn't eat in again.
