Been craving soup dumplings for awhile.Glad i finally found this place.The people were kind and friendly too.We ordered the regular 7 pieces and another 2 that was special.I was wondering what the difference is with prices and now i get it:The two pieces that were more expensive were freshly made.The other 7 pieces were frozen.They did taste slightly better but both tasted very delicious.I even bought some to cook at home but we ended up overcooking it, the soup spilled. So definitely highly advise to just eat them at the restaurant 😄The soup beef and pork was very delicious.I got the beef and my buddy got the pork.Beef was tender and very delicious but the soup flavor was lacking. It did say no msg?! Haha so it was the healthy kind.Would go back again to try the pork soup. My fren liked them a lot.Definitely go back again!

Mingle’s Mango offers a new take on some traditional favorites. We enjoyed the items we ordered, which included the cucumber salad, Queen Crab XLB, Kurobuta XLB, Green Onion Pancake, Nightmarket Street King (chow mein) and Tenshinhan (fried rice).We’re all big fans of green onion pancake and Mingle’s has one of the best we’ve had. Crispy and tasty without the oily/greasy texture. We thought two orders would be enough for our part of five but we had to get a third order.The rest of the meal were standard fare with a slight variation. We were split on the nightmarket street king which I personally enjoyed but others thought it was on the sweet side. The Tenshinhan fried rice was a winner with its different twist on ingredients for a combination fried rice plate.Service was good and the owner was very friendly and informative as he explained some of the dishes to us. We need to make a return trip to try the wagyu beef noodle soup!

Best dumpling I ever had in U.S., give the fact I lived in various Chinese communities in California for years, authentic taste like those in my hometown, which is the area of soup dumpling originated from. The quantity of ingredients are very good. Strongly recommend!

The XLB here was really good! My favorites were the pork and the newbee (lobster and garlic) ones. I also highly recommend ordering the green onion pancake, it was super light and crispy. The owner is also super nice and friendly! The interior decoration is very fun if you like anime and they played a lot of music from games when we were there.I also accidentally left my bag there but I was able to get it back easily the next day, the owner was very nice about it and kept it safe for me. Id definitely come here more often if it wasnt such a far drive for me.

The wagyu beef noodle tastes awesome! We were told that the noodle is hand made every morning, and it tastes really good and fresh (it might be better if we can choose to add a little more noodle). It is the first time I have tried lobster soup dumplings, and they are tasty with a strong lobster flavor. The pork soup dumplings are also good.

Delicious food, prompt service and friendly staff. The environment is welcoming and I enjoy the vibe of the whole place. The soup with hand pulled noodles is delicious and the dumplings are fantastic. I went twice in less than two weeks when I discovered the new location on mission in Fremont. I will definitely return. Oh... and make sure to try the fungus salad.

XLB tastes awesome and definitely worth a try! Others were just okay and a little salty. The service is also a little slow.The decoration is pretty fun, with many Anime characters painted on the wall. The plate is also interesting, for example, there are bowl like Luffys hat.

If you love anime, and manga. You need to come to this place, indeed. If you know the neta of food name, you can have a nice talk with the host. Moreover, the owner of this place loves inventing new types of Chinese cuisines. Nice place to find innovative Chinese food. General Kim is a must try for anyone loves spicy 🔥 dumplings.
