Spices for the senses! Total Yum

My wife and I just got off the plane from Detroit, MI (one of the great centers of vegan restaurants in the ISA).
We ordered the Mushroom chana burger, burrito bowl and black bean soup. Wow!! ⚡️❤️. The delight to our senses with their delicately spiced foods. They really have the gift of knowing what spice combinations work together. We don’t eat super spicy foods, but here, it was artistically flavored. And all vegan! A friendly man was there eating and he told us that every thing on the menu is delicious as he eats there often. I only wish we could too.
Thanks Frieda and all who cooked and prepared such delicious and thoughtful food. 🥑🍆🍅🥦🥬🥒🫑🌽🥕❤️

Tasty clean food. Friendly service

We had the burgers on homemade gluten free bread, which were really tasty. Good selection of food, not overly oily/greasy like other restaurants. Everything seemed to be very high quality.

Yum

Stopped for food on our way down to Yosemite from San Francisco. Quiet restaurant with nice people. Food is fresh and you feel good after eating it. Nothing too heavy or greasy. Everything is made from whole foods and promotes healthy plant based eating.

Wonderful place

Baagan is great and you always feel healthy and happy after eating their food. The staff is very nice too and everything that I've tried tastes amazing. I recommend the mushroom chana burger, the kitchari, and the raw vegan raspberry swirl cheesecake.

Fries

I am in love with Baagan fries, they use organic sunflower oil. I always buy an extra side of the cilantro cream and the house-made salsa. SO BOMB!
I wasn't a fan of their burgers, even though I added every topping they have to offer plus to the above-mentioned sauces. It just lacked flavor for me. But the quality is great, it's definitely not a science burger like others are serving.

Also, the raw tiramisu is BOMB! it's a small piece but very tasty. The donut holes sucked in my opinion.

Pros: Great Oil, Organic Products, No science foods

Cons: Hours, I wish they were at least open until 9pm, Some of the staff

Smells like spices, but tastes like heaven

Burgers are fantastic in house patties are made with Ayurvedic ingredients.

Also sell in house Ayurveda spices, so restaurant has strong aroma of ‘health food store bulk spice section’, but goes away and the food is great.

Delicious & healthy eats

It’s got a good variety of items to choose from. My personal favorites are the quinoa wrap and the burrito bowl, cauliflower tacos are pretty good too.
Nice clean quiet place. Food comes out pretty quickly.
I just wish the also serve breakfast items since they’re open so early

Pros: Very healthy , Quiet

Cons: Sometimes parking is challenging , Wished they served breakfast

Get. The. Cheesecake.

Such good food, in a clean, neat restaurant. And it’s healthier too! A little on the expensive side, but I didn’t mind because of the quality of the food. I had the tiramisu cheesecake as well and it was amazing!
There was a very rude customer trying to cause a scene. The staff handled it very well.

Pros: Healthy! , Good quality food, Clean restaurant

Cons: Kind of pricey

Great food for a vegan family

I’ve been to this restaurant twice, and never disappointed. Food delicious and quickly served. Great for families. Products to purchase to take away and prepare at home. Not an extensive menu, so I hope they add to it otherwise it could become a little predictable.

Pros: Delicious vegan food with an Indian flair., Reasonably priced, Quick service.

Cons: Limited menu

Awesome

Baagan has been on radar for awhile. One of the first restaurants certified from plant pure as having some foods available with no added salt, sugar or oil. Really enjoyed the food. We need Baagan to come to Sonoma county.

Yummy!

Short version: Delicious!! Friendly. Clean and spacious dining space, order at the counter, collect your own utensils before sitting, they bring your food to you, bus your own tables. Not cheap, but not crazy expensive either. Did I say everything was delicious?

Long version: Hubby & I went in at 4:00 on a Sunday, the restaurant seemed deserted because of the time. When we approached the counter a woman emerged from the back and welcomed us, directed us to the laminated menus, assured us that we could ask questions; the menu is very extensive! We were starving since we just finished a big hike so we ordered a bowl of the soup of the day (Black Eyed Pea), Kitchari Bowl, and a Burger on Salad Combo (Golden Mung Burger patty w Garlic mushrooms and Cashew Cheese on the side with Kale Salad) so we could try as many things as possible on our first visit. Absolutely delish! Finished with 2 decaf Hot Golden Warrior drinks which were perfect for a chilly day. They had dessert options, but we were too full.

We first discovered Baagan at the Saturday Walnut Creek Farmer's Market with their food truck, but the staff told us they no longer have the truck and opened a brick-and-mortar in Moraga instead. Going to definitely check them out there too!

Pros: Excellent Food, friendly staff, clean

Cons: too spacious, could be cozier

Simple and great

The restaurant looked like a beautiful modern office. Toots of great options but I went with the delectable mushroom Chana burger for lunch plus the tastiest kidney bean soup. The cook came to talk to us because she realized we were new. She was extremely pleasant. I am dreaming of going back soon

Feel like I’m intruding when I walk in here

I love the idea and intended spirit of this place. However the reality is that it is incredibly impersonal and I always feel like I am interrupting when I come in to order. I don’t get it.

Pros: Both raw and cooked options, Clean venue

Cons: Not friendly , Expensive

My favorite vegan restaurant in the Bay Area

I can't say enough good things about their food. Unlike so many vegan restaurants, Baagan makes it taste great and it's super healthy for you. Nothing deep fried. Everything is organic. Very little to no oil on all their savory dishes. Super creative menu. Food that is fun and delicious. Service has always been attentive. Yes, it's not super cheap, but this kind of fare takes more labor and of course there has to be a surcharge for all organic ingredients. I've been to every vegan restaurant in the Bay Area and there's nothing else like it in the casual category. My #1.

Healthy food

Located in a strip mall, the food is excellent and very fresh. Not a fancy place, sandwich shop type of place, bus your own tables. Everything I’ve tried has been very good.

Extra Healthy (pricey) Indian food

The place is vegan and very health-conscious, and had mindfulness vibes.
Food was filling, the kind that keeps you light and gives you energy.

I had the golden monkey smoothie which tasted like spiced banana. and khichari--a fusion stew with quinoa that was very gingery.

I also shared with friends a bite of the burgers, they were decent! It's worth it to order with mushrooms (Golden Mung) :)

There were some interesting teas and health food mixes around, if you'd like more of the goodness at home.

We paid upfront.

Pros: Spacious , Healthy

Cons: Pricey

Delicious healthy food

I love this place, absolutely delicious, hearty soups, creative burgers and wraps and fabulous desserts. I enjoy their hot teas as well served in beautiful white cups and saucers. My husband and I go here at least once a month and I'm never disappointed.

food sucks lousy service !!!

Walked up no one even bothered to ask how can I help you! They ask for a tip when ringing you up but you have to put your own dishes back after you eat.... umhh .... like why did I tip?? It says they offer American food but mostly with an Indian flare! Way to expensive food r the quality and AMOUNT of food!! Won’t come back here no reason !!! Atmosphere is cold and unwelcoming:(

Delicious and super easy to get to

I’ve had the mushroom burger with jalapeños twice and really love it. Then i had the burrito and it was just as good, if not better. It’s a little pricey and the decor is incomplete. Several hand made signs on the walls and not much else... could use a little “something” on the walls to make it feel a little less “ temporary” but I’ll continue to eat there.

burrito bowl

Stopped in and ordered the burrito bowl along with a black berry sage lemonade. What I really wanted was the vegan sushi. She said they haven't had that in a while. Bummer. But aside from that the food was good, I'll be coming back

Pros: nice decor , good food
