Món Superette

Everything tasted fresh here. Friendly staff Khanh explained the ingredients and differences in their Vietnamese cuisine. Very quick service for freshly cooked chicken wings and garlic noodles. Their garlic noodles was amazing. So tasty!!!! Glad one of the customers recommended it when I was waiting for the imperial roll. Forgot to take picture of it until the last bite. The shrimp spring roll was refreshing with tasty dipping sauce. Not the normal peanut sauce, it’s a lot more savory with lighter texture. The beef vermicelli rice noodle was also excellent. Their peach ice tea and Thai green milk tea were not too sweet with fragrant tea flavors. Will be back to try their fried banana next time.

Stopped by today and just had to leave a review! Not only for the delicious food, but the wonderful service they provided! We came at a later time when food items were limited but the owners were kind enough to notice and check to see if they could make us a vermicelli bowl of our meat choice! They really went above and beyond with their service and the atmosphere of the small convi-styled location made it feel so warm and welcoming from both the owners and customers alike. The beef vermicelli bowl was a solid choice! (9/10). It was fresh, light feeling and the flavors of both the meat and fish sauce blended perfectly! My partner also tried it and enjoyed it so much he jokingly mentioned “I wish I could’ve enjoy it longer” referring to the fact that he finished it so quickly and wanted more! Haha Definitely will be coming back to try their shrimp spring rolls and also imperial rolls! ❤️

Mon Superette is a wonderful vignette into Vietnamese cuisine in the format of a charming convini-styled restaurant where you can get great quality and delicious food to-go or even enjoy in the window-side nook if you’re lucky to be in the area. The crab sandwiches are divine as they’re crispy, have great fresh flavor, and the bread is perfectly fluffy. Also, the owner Khánh was so informative and engaging as she shared the ethnic roots of her family’s cooking behind the food. Of particular note, if you have been to Japan and have enjoyed the wonders of the aforementioned convini-lifestyle (or other Asian countries for that matter) then you will be pleased to know these egg sandwiches are probably the best American option I’ve had to this date. They’re wonderfully light and have that perfect egg-to-mayo ratio that I’ve missed since returning from Tokyo. Apparently Khánh brought together the influence of having lived in Japan to this setup and it’s such a refreshing take on grab-and-go eateries. The garlic noodles and vermicelli salad (Bún) are must haves. Seriously. You need to try these. I think this is probably my favorite garlic noodles to date as they’re not overpowering or oily but just perfectly balanced for that satisfying savory flavor. They have hot food options in addition to the cold fridge grab-and-go so if you’re there, try everything out. I know I have enjoyed it and will be back to do just that.

The Vietnamese spring rolls with shrimp are the best I’ve ever had! The shrimp taste incredibly fresh, and the vermicelli noodles perfectly complement the other flavors without overwhelming them. The peanut sauce has an ideal consistency that makes dipping effortless and delicious. I also LOVE the shrimp salad!!!

Really fresh and tasty takeaway food! We had the fried banana, which was amazing, along with the spring rolls and fried chicken—everything was delicious. The service was quick, and the staff were very friendly. Most importantly, the food was fresh and full of flavor. I’ll definitely be back!

Really love this place! The fried banana has me in a chokehold. I crave it weekly and it’s reminiscent of something you’d eat at a night market is SE Asia. The service is always amazing. I’ve also had the sandwiches, the ginger wellness shot, iced tea, garlic noodles and chicken wings. What a great addition to Piedmont!

This place is amazing! The staff is very friendly and the food is delicious and super affordable. I love their spring rolls, garlic noodles, and they just added bahn mi and they are really good! Highly recommend stopping by. Great for grab and go.

It’s a cute shop with pre made and made to order food/drinks. I only got a Vietnamese coffee, and it was one of the pre-made things on the shelf without ice— that’s added in afterwards. That being said, seeing how much coffee you actually got and the amount of ice they put is upsetting for a $6 coffee. Actual taste of coffee was alright. Workers are nice.

The place was impeccably clean, the food was delicious and their customer service was exceptionally. Good. Love it and will visit more in the future.

Tofu Summer Rolls, Fresh Rolls, Spring Rolls, whatever you want to call them, they are a favorite of mine. The form factor, the freshness, the variation from roll to roll, I love it all. This said, there are many choices on Piedmont Ave. For $9 with a tía tô Viet shiso kick and light purple vermicelli noodles inside, this to-go option is a go-to. The people are always kind, there's sriracha behind the counter, and they recently started doing banh mi which is amazing. There's a cute little bench facing the window if you can't wait to eat them where you can people-watch for a moment and free-advertise, which I've done, bringing in folks who have not yet tried the deliciousness at this friendly neighborhood spot. Must try.

We were on Piedmont Ave and looking for a quick grab and go option. I found Mon Superette and we decided to give it a go. Ordered through the DoorDash app and got the shrimp summer rolls and the chicken wings. Pickup was nice and easy and they have utensils, condiments/sauces, etc, all easily available to grab. The shrimp summer rolls were amazing! The rice paper was perfectly moist - not hard like you sometimes get at other places and not too wet where it falls apart. The shrimp was nice and bouncy and veggies and herbs were fresh and crunchy. The peanut sauce was also super tasty! This is a really good shrimp summer roll. The chicken wings were just okay. They were freshly fried to order and were nice and crispy, but I wasn't a huge fan of the glaze. Beyond the batter and glaze, the chicken meat beneath had absolutely no flavor. You get 4 wings for $12 - $3/wing, which seems quite expensive. I wish the description specifically listed how many wings as it's not clear from the photos. We would likely skip this next time! Overall, a solid grab and go option on Piedmont Ave and we look forward to trying some of the vermicelli bowls and sandwiches next time around.

Cute food togo, yummy Vietnamese taste. Grab and go service. Recommended. Update 9/15/25: Now they have the famous Vietnamese Saigon Banh mi, excellent taste of Saigonnais elites before 1975. Delicious in compare with 2 famous places in Saigon before 1975. 1. Banh mi gà Duyên Dáng on Lê Văn Duyệt, Q.3 2. Banh mi Jambon and Gà rôti Hương Lan of Nhà Thờ Đức Bà or Bưu Điện Saigon.

I came at the end of the day and got what was left: che thai, fancy pork spring rolls, and egg sando. Their peanut sauce is different - thick and not drippy. Spring roll is made with banh hoi noodles so it held together well. Not messy and didn't break easily. The egg sando was also good and not drippy and messy. They messed up my banh mi order but was willing to remake it. It is pricey for Viet deli food but it is healthy and decent. I haven't tried the sandwich and che thai yet but so far so good. The owner seems more Chinese than Viet and she can speak Spanish so pretty cool.

I had the chance to try out Mon Superette today because my wife had a yoga class nearby on Piedmont and picked up some food to-go for the two of us. She grabbed a crab sandwich from the ready-made section along with an order of spring rolls. The spring rolls were some of the best I've had. The lettuce inside was crisp and refreshing, paired nicely with the fragrant sprigs of mint. The shrimp were plump, and the vermicelli noodles had a nice bounce to them--just like the outer rice paper wrapper, which had great texture. The rolls were tightly wrapped, making them easy to eat without the filling falling apart. Poorly made rolls often unravel with each bite, but that wasn't an issue here. The accompanying peanut sauce was well balanced -- sweet and savory, though a bit thinner than I personally prefer. Nonetheless, it was a very enjoyable dipping sauce that I wish I had more of. The crab sandwich was excellent. The crab cake had the crispy, golden texture of a deep-fried hash brown but was generously packed with crab meat. It was topped with just the right amount of slaw: enough to add contrast without overpowering the crab. Even after sitting for a bit, the bread held up well and didn't get soggy. You get three pieces per order, making it a great option for sharing. This casual, to-go venture from the team behind Bacogai is seriously impressive. I'll definitely be back to try some of their hot food items next time.

A lovely little Piedmont spot to pick up a quick lunch, with solid offerings! My favorite is their lemon chicken banh mi--the French bread is so crispy and good, and the garlic aioli really hits without being overwhelming, great fresh ingredients overall. The owner also owns Bacogai in Alameda which is another favorite, and is clearly passionate about Vietnamese food. Other great bites include the pork spring rolls for a light and healthy option, and enjoy the green Thai tea a lot--creamy, not too sweet, but definitely wakes you up.

4/17/25 - Long overdue review! I was exploring Oakland and wanted to try this small shop for their sandwiches! The owner was really nice and the sandwich was as good as it looked in pictures! I think I may have gotten the crab cake sando. Anyway... I would totally go back if I'm ever in the area. There's not a lot of seating, but most customers just did grab and go. I can't remember if I took phone pics of the shop, but here are some film pics I took of it.

Great Asian lunch selections from their grill or in a grab n go format, featuring Japanese Sandos and Vietnamese Spring Rolls and much more. Fast and friendly staff is right there to take your order and get you on your way! Eat in? There is a small counter along the storefront window for you to enjoy your meal. As expected, this little storefront embodies that weekday lunch kinda vibe, but with modern touches in their simple decor. One of the things I miss from Japan are the convenience stores serving really fresh, inexpensive and delicious Japanese sandos (sandwiches). Thankfully Mon Superette has bravely stepped up to answer the call! I loved their crab cake sandwich and the egg salad was good too. Both were served on soft pillowy milk bread with the crust trimmed off in the Japanese style. It was almost like eating a cloud! I can't wait to be back for another crab cake sando!! They said that they will be expanding their grab n go menu soon too!

I've tried to give Mon Superette a fair shot, but it's kind of turning into a wild goose chase for banh mi. I've stopped by multiple times, no banh mi. Today I swung by, right at opening (11am), noon, and even 12:30--and every time, no banh mi in sight. I was told to come back at Noon, too. Just one very chill person working and a few things in the fridge. At this point, tracking down a sandwich here feels like trying to catch a rare Pokémon. Maybe they exist? Maybe it's a myth? Who knows. I really want to like this place, but it just doesn't seem to be run all that well.

This mini-mart is perfect for a quick bites to-go. It's the sister shop to Bacogai in Alameda, so no surprise the food here is fresh and tasty, as well! This was my second time stopping in. I highly recommend the Crab Cake Sando, the Garden Salad with Shrimp, the Fancy Pork Summer Rolls and of course, the delicious Vietnamese Ice Coffee! BONUS: they have the good ice!! If you know, you know!! The service is always friendly and the ambiance is welcoming. You won't regret picking up lunch from Mon Superette!

I am so into the idea of this place and hope to make an updated review that's different than this one. I have to be honest though and say the tofu summer rolls were bland and underwhelming. For that price ($9) they should def be bigger and taste like something. They will also need to find a way to separate them because they stick together and are likely to rip apart. The tofu is plain/no flavor, definitely needs to be seasoned. There were no herbs at all and the dipping sauce was ehh and couldn't save it. I will come back to try some more items and am hopeful they can improve the summer rolls. A couple stars given because staff is pleasant and the place is a good little grab and go spot idea. They gotta up their game cause it's a good concept for those that don't want Ebiko sushi up the way.

freshly batter-fried banana. is it the best cold-weather snack? def was on a chilly grey wednesday afternoon in February! late late lunch stop to check out this newish to-go place. there's a small window bench where you can wait a few minutes for your banana but it's not really space to eat. there's a small refrigerated case that holds ready-made sandos, salads, bowls and drinks (there may be more if you go closer to lunch?). think they also make hot drinks to order. sandos on milk bread, sliced in thirds. i appreciated that the small rectangles were easier to eat neatly - tho i might just be a messy eater. tried the crab cake because its season, was tasty and had to leave 1/3 for later because banana but the panko crust was still slightly crunchy even the next morning. slaw helped balance both flavor and texture. soft but never mushy milk bread keeps softer fillings from squeezing out. but. the. banana! hot, crunchy, sesame flecked lightly sweet coating holds melty banana lava. you can't help but break into it immediately as you walk down the street nibbling and grinning and make everybody else want one.

Love grabbing a quick bite here before my class nearby. My favorites are the crab sandwich, garlic noodles with shrimp, peach tea, & fried banana. Am planning on coming back soon to try out their Vietnamese sandwiches.

Been hitting this spot frequently the past month or so, and I LOVE IT! The Sando Sandwiches, the various rolls, are absolutely delicious. Recently I tried a yellow curry with vermicelli noodles and I was mind blown. Absolutely, frikin delicious!! The curry wasn't too thick and wasn't too runny either. Mon Superette is most definitely one of the newest highlights on Piedmont Ave.

the tamarind glazed chicken wings are so good. southeast asian girlies please try it. The tamarind is a nice sweetness and the skin is both airy and crispy, it's really yummy. the chicken inside is nice a juicy. the owner is also very nice and sweet! def coming back for the wings

Came here on a busy day and omg . The store is super cute and the owner put a lot of thought into the space. The grab and go concept is awesome and convenient. I had the crab Sando which was recognized in the sf chronicle and a red Thai tea. It was delicious, light, easy to eat, and AMAZING price point. My drink was about $6, and my sand which was $13. Definitely coming back to try everything one menu and the service was excellent. Owner is always in store so pop in when you get a chance.

This is the best chuối chiên I've had in a long time! It brings back childhood memories of eating fried bananas in Saigon--so delicious!

Was just opening up and caught a few items. The salad dressing on the pretty simple salad was the real standout, as was the service. I wanted to like the garlic noodles more but alas, the hunt continues for the perfect garlic noodles. The noodles themselves were good, very fresh tasting, but missing a flavor component.

Grab and go sister to Alameda's popular Bacogai hot pot, Mon Superette is offering quick and light meals for folks on the move. There is a cold case filled with drinks, salads, spring rolls, and sandwiches and a limited to order hot menu. There is also a fun assortment of snacks at the register, including potato chips and puffed rice bars (really recommend the matcha vanilla). There are no tables, but there is a bench to wait or snack. I had the $12 fancy pork summer roll, which comes with a lightly spiced peanut sauce and deliciously crispy pork. These were much more filling than I anticipated so I feel like I got a good deal for the cost. For $6 I took home Vietnamese coffee which is sweet and bold. I also ordered the $11 garlic noodles for later - well seasoned and tasty, perfect to throw in some veggies and protein at home. The staff are also very attentive and kind! As the new grab and go on the block with only a week open, there are plans to expand a hot plate section. With Oori and Ebiko on the same block, I would like to see a few more options in the under $10 range, but the food is definitely filling and delicious. I'll be back!

I want to love this place, as others have said, but it was just ok. Our imperial rolls came with no sauce, which was a shame because they are pretty bland. I assume this was in error since I see sauce in at least one photo here for the imperial rolls, so I recommend checking before you leave. The fancy pork summer roll was good, but didn't have enough of the sauce that was included in the grab and go box. The wings are well fried, though, and the noodles good, but not good enough to make up for the imperial rolls.

I miss simply Greek before they had a new owner destroy the restaurant. The viet coffee and coconut milk drinks are great here. The imperial roles are good but expensive for take out. Will need to come back and try more food

I bought the Fancy Springrolls and it was very tasty. I was pleasantly surprised. Never had purple fine vermicelli noodles before, but found it to be good. Will be returning to try their other foods. I liked how fast, clean, and convenient it was also.

Just got a quick lunch from them today and it was affordable and delicious. The crab cake sandwich was $13 for 3 little sandwich halves with a tasty Vietnamese flavored slaw on them. Overall the sandwich ate a tiny bit too sweet for my tastes, but it was still really good and I'd absolutely go back and try other items. Super filling and affordable given it's crab!

Garlic noodles are great, though portion size is smaller than expected. Love the vermicelli salads, so refreshing and a great lunch option - I've been 3x since they opened. Haven't tried the fried banana yet! I wish they also did bahn mi to go!

The service was very nice and I love how cute the place is. It's not a sit down restaurant just a place to grab your food and go. Seems to be family owned which I can appreciate. I loved their fried banana!

Tamarind Chicken Wings were so unbelievably good. Perfect amount of crunch, salty, sweet, and sour. Will absolutely be back for more.

I love mon superette! I tried bacogai and loved it, so happy to see them open a place closer to me. Their crab cake sandwich is one of my favorite things, but I also like their vermicelli bowls. It's a great place to grab lunch when you're in a rush.

Crunchy goodness.... Those pork spring rolls are so tasty it has a special crunchy surprise that makes it a standout

Everything was high quality and tasty. The person working there was also really nice and helpful. Great service and such a cute spot

the staff was very kind and the food was kinda mid over-priced IMO. no space to eat to basically just take out.
