Crema's Take

This Roseville spot brilliantly blends Vietnamese café culture with a neighborhood gathering place, where you can grab a flaky croissant and pour-over coffee in the morning or linger over banh mi sandwiches and fresh pastries in the afternoon. The sunny, plant-filled space with its dual ordering system (kiosks and counter) keeps things efficient without sacrificing the warmth that keeps regulars coming back, and the baked goods here—fresh bread, beautiful croissants, and delicate desserts—are genuinely worth the trip on their own.

Let's start with the awesome, service was super friendly and this place was popping like crazy at 6pm so that means their cafe foods are just as delicious as their pastries. All the pastries we received were incredibly delicious and the cruffin which is something I've never seen before is a pure stroke of genius. Now for the bad, we made a preorder two days in advance to ensure we got exactly what we wanted since we weren't going to be able to get our order until evening. We were definitely a little disappointed that midday they called to tell me they sold out of one of the items we ordered. It's very reminiscent of the Seinfeld episode with the rental car if you know what I mean. The whole point of a preorder is that you save the items for me that we have already paid for before you even open to the public. Granted it at least was only one item they sold out of, it was the item that I wanted the most. So if you preorder, put your pickup time to their opening time and maybe you can avoid the same downfall as me. I've worked at a high end bakery for nearly 5 years and you always fill preorders before you even open -- that's literally the point of the preorder. I'll try again in future, but they'll need to improve that aspect before I upgrade my rating.

I was really charmed by this place and had some amazing Vietnamese food! There are kiosks as well as a cashier counter for ordering, and a display of beautiful desserts and croissants. I had a non-dairy coconut coffee and the egg roll salad bowl which was seriously good. That peanut sauce… 🤤 yes. Everything was so flavorful and fresh, and I loved the idea of egg rolls within a bowl or salad! There’s a variety of seating including a counter and a glass domed area that gives good greenhouse vibes. There’s also some cutesy mugs, tees and hats. I would absolutely come back here!

One of my favorite Vietnamese restaurants. I absolutely love the Banh Mi sandwiches. The bread is so fresh, and the desserts are absolutely fantastic. This place is by far my go to restaurant. There's also ample seating with a enclosed patio like area. I usually get a sandwich the kimchi fries are absolutely amazing as well

Mi-Sant is a fun spot for some Vietnamese flavors and some amazing looking bakery items. We didn’t try any of the pastries, but definitely will go back and try them. We ordered the Mi-Sant Special Bowl and the Bulgogi Beef Bowl. You do have the option to modify your bowl. You will order your food from the front counter and then they will call your name when your order is ready. With as busy as it was, we were pleasantly surprised on how quick the food was ready. All of the food tasted fresh and similar to your standard Vietnamese noodle salads. We did enjoy the flavors, but thought our food could’ve used a little something more to make it really pop. The egg rolls were on par with the rest of our food! We will definitely be back!

This was my first time at Mi-Sant, but it certainly won’t be my last! They have a really cute vibe inside. There is lots of natural light and plants. It was super easy to order - you just go to one of the little kiosks and select what you want and pay right there. We got our food and drinks super fast. Everything was delicious! I’m very picky about egg rolls, and theirs is one of the best I’ve ever had. The Banh Mi was really great too - the bread and veggies were so fresh & the chicken was super tender and flavorful. It was a wonderful experience!
