I’ve had better - Edit
The service has gone downhill since I last came here a year ago. Staff was a bit standoff-ish and instead of coming by your table to take your order, they have the annoying “scan QR code for menu, then walk up to the counter to order, and get prompted for a tip when they spin around the ipad” setup which I’m starting to get weary of.
Read moreAt any rate, the food was okay. The vegetable empanada was nothing to write home about, but the potato empanada was pretty good. I then tried the dessert pb&j empanada which was not worth it.
(The owner was friendly and did not slam any meat on me or my table)

Lots of flavor - Edit
Even though there are only a handful of Baganda menu items, this was a very satisfying meal. Everything tastes fresh. Will definitely return.

Fantastic and Super Friendly Owner - Edit
So I had to try this place based on the previous 1 star review (that I somehow found hilarious and doubted the reality behind the claim). Turns out the owner doesn’t know each and every customer’s dietary choices. But apparently the person still comes here with her dog often. I had to bring this review up with the owner and have a chuckle. Personally I eat at vegan places whenever possible, but when I’m with a meat-eating friend I look for a compromise. The vegan dish I ordered was amazing and healthy. The staff and owner were great, it’s an excellent family-owned business. Everyone deserves a second chance, especially when the previous review had such inherent contradiction in the statement.

The owner threw dead meat on my table and laughed! - Edit
We have supported this business for years particularly through the pandemic we eat here at least three times a week and have brought many patrons. We will never frequent this location again. The male owner is a patriarchal [censored] and unless he is removed I would not support him. I was literally sitting at my table he knows we are vegan he carried a huge slab of red Dead flash and slammed it down on my table while he laughed. I have been vegetarian or vegan since 1975 this was very traumatizing for me please tell everyone you know

Amazing! The food was delicious and the service was so friendly and quick! - Edit
My husband and I were in Mesa for a concert and ate here. He’s vegetarian and I’m vegan, we both had empanada platters and were impressed! The flavors were outstanding and the platters was fresh and filling. They have a great dessert and beer selection to boot. 10/10 will eat here again! Would give 5 stars but they do serve meat so the app won’t allow it :(

Great spot in downtown Mesa - Edit
They have a really awesome vegan platter with your choice of empanada (I love the potato achiote), caramelized plantains, rice, beans & avocado. Everything is fresh and flavorful. Prices are decent & they have a good selection of beers.

Delicious - Edit
I always get the platter with no cheese/crema. They have 2 vegan empanadas, a veggie/chickpea and a potato. I always get both and that green salsa that comes with is so good! They also have pbj and pb banana empanadas for dessert. They also have a cute patio and serve beer.
