Lots to choose from! Have everyone order from each vendor and share

There was no line when I got there around 5pm. I ordered the 2 mango coco drinks and they were delicious. I enjoyed the drinks and wanted more afterwards. I recommend this drink as a boba substitute. Parking is hard to find so that was my only struggle.

I didn't even know there was a MNGO location here in National City, but I'm so happy to have discovered their little booth at the Market on 8th food court. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by the cashier. Although I was very indecisive (there are just too many good options on the menu!), I never felt rushed at all. In fact, I felt bad for the single employee who was working the dinner shift; she was running around taking orders, making drinks, and assembling the food. So although it took a while for my order to be placed, she was very much on top of things. I ordered the mango coconut cream smoothie, and Oh. My. Gosh. It was so good. I was rather surprised by the amount of smoothie you receive--it was a great bang for your buck. And, of course, it was delicious. It was the perfect amount of sweetness, and I was blown away by the coconut cream. The combination of coconut and mango is perfectly fruity and refreshing. I will be thinking about this smoothie.The shop itself is very small, however, there is seating around the food court for people to enjoy their food. There's outside/inside seating, bathrooms, and tables. The decoration around the food court was so cute! Definitely a hidden gem! Overall, I'd certainly come back to try other menu options, and hopefully, I can bring my friends and family with me!q

I'm obsessed with MNGO's mango coconut cream smoothie. The coconut cream is so rich and thick and not too sweet. It pairs deliciously with mango. The drink is at a perfect sweetness level for me and at $6.55, priced appropriately for a blended smoothie. I highly recommend this menu item. The lady working tonight was so sweet and friendly.

The desserts were great - very fresh and light. Unfortunately the boba may have been a bad batch - it was really hard. But overall a good experience, very nice service, and the seating in the hall is plentiful

Spend your money & time somewhere else. I walked in at 7:45pm, the website says CLOSES AT 8pm. The rude cashier didn't greet me, and she said that they were closed already. A smoothie literally takes less than 5 minutes to make.Did she want to leave work early??! I loved this place at first but now it's not worth gas, time, and money to come here. The times we actually got served they were always rude. Not good customer service.

Kinda upset I drove far just to get kakigori. Got here at 7:30. The girl was busy in the back cleaning so I waited a few minutes. She came out and told me they're not serving it anymore because they're gonna close soon (in a half hour) shouldn't you guys be serving everything till 8pm when you close? Unless you guys leave as soon as it's 8pm. Anyways, I didn't want to write a bad review. But this is my second time I tried coming. The first time they didn't have it, I came around 6:30-7pm same reason. Makes it useless even having it on your menu if you're not willing to serve it. PERIOD. Idk if it's laziness, or just poor management. Not to mention that time the two girls working were just hanging around talking like they were hanging out at a party. Having a conversation while we were waiting to be served. But I let that go. And just ended up leaving. I never had this problem or this type of service at the Convoy location. At least post some type of signage (online and in store) stating you don't serve certain menu items past 7pm? That would help people not waste, time and gas. And acknowledge your customers when they walk in, that would be nice. I guess I'll continue supporting the other location.

I got the mango kakigori. Very good! Light, refreshing, and not overly too sweet. The chunks of mango within it were a nice touch. It also came with condensed milk and a mango purée of some sort to pour on top of the shaved ice.

I love MNGO every one I have been to has been good. This place was no exception.They forgot my Crystal boba and added it as soon as I asked and they were very nice.

I ordered a mango coconut cream smoothie and really enjoyed it. The coconut cream that they use is delicious! This was my first time trying anything from MNGO. My friend and I just happened to stumble upon Market on 8th. They have some really great looking items on the menu. Service was fast. Will I try them again? For sure, next time I'm in town.

I've came multiple times and it's always closed. It says it's open from 12pm-8pm and I've came at different times mostly around 3pm and it's always closed.

Are your times correct? I love the drinks but when I show up on a Friday with some friends from out of town your worker says she's closed and it's barely 8:15 so disappointing

Came and asked for just the sticky rice with no mango (I'm allergic to mango), the lady rudely says "we can't sell you just the rice because it's not a menu option" yet I've gone many times and have been served just the rice. I put a photo that I have gotten just the rice before. I understand it's a menu "dish" but you shouldn't shoo people away and tell them to check the other location out instead just cause you don't wanna do a job.

Hubby ordered mango latte and I got the mango coco drink with crystal boba. the drinks we got tasted very similar. We both really liked it. The mango taste is ripe and sweet. the service was fast. It's located in a little public market with other eateries

Just drive the extra miles and go to the one in Convoy. The staff at the Market on 8th one just don't care. I went here around noon and only two other orders were in front of me. I got my pager and she wrote down the wrong pager number. Therefore I never got notified when my order was ready. I never got an apology nor did she ask me if I wanted it remade at least. I was at the table outside the store and no one came out to say it was ready. I know that's going above and beyond but if it's not busy at least try. The ice cream was melted and the mango was sour (which is fair, it is out of season). It was $13.00
