I love Mint Leaf!What the food is like:The pho is good. Flavorful enough to not be boring, and plain enough that it is comfortable to eat. I like to get the special rare beef pho.The shaking beef plate might be my favorite when I want to be spoiled. It's basically a plate of big chunks of well-flavored meat (garlic, onion, salt, probably other flavors too . Love the sizzling sound it makes while it is served.The spring rolls are all really lovely, too. They have a lot of crispy textures stuffed into them.Most of the dishes are very flavorful. Some of them are also rich.Online ordering: I appreciate that Mint Leaf recently incorporated the ability to use Online Ordering through GrubHub and ot...
I think the bahn mi may be over priced at 10 dollars. But the pho I had for the same was really amazing. Usually veggies pho is broccoli, letteuce, carrots and mung bean sprouts. There pho not only had a very light tasty broth that I didn't need to doctor up with condiments. But broccoli, lettuce, carrots, baby corn, green bean, friend onions and usual basil and bean sprouts. However they true stand out for me where these amazing chewy somewhat smoky mushrooms. That together with fried tofu and I was one happy camper. The decore is super clean and modern, with really nice bathrooms, and semi open kitchen.
My girls and I had lunch and everything was good. I searched Google for the closest restaurant near the Berkeley Marina and took a chance at stopping in for the first time. Service was great, food was prepared and served quickly. My daughters know how I feel about a dirty bathroom when eating out. When I say the restroom was clean and smelled fresh. I knew I would enjoy the food.We will be back againParking: Lots of street parking within steps of the front door
Not that I want anyone to know, this is among the most overlooked places to eat in Berkeley. Great flavor at low-ish prices with plenty of indoor and outdoor space, easy parking, proximity to BBowl, immaculate large bathrooms for families and family-runitself. This is our go-to as family of four.

Excellent pho. Amazing sweet potato chicken curry. Although?if I?m honest, the chicken was actually my least favorite part. I wonder if they could make that with just vegetables? The curry is phenomenal tho. Must try at least once. We?ll be back.
Hella good food! The Pho is amazing and huge. Everything else on the menu is also fantastic, my family goes here regularly. Super friendly staff, and nice atmosphere. 10/10 would recommend
Good ambient. Their thai tea was awesome. I had a vegetable pho which had flavor but no impressive. I have to come back and find their best plates. ????
I love this place! I have never had a meal here that wasn't great. And I have tried most of their options. Yummy everytime!
