This place is the most literal "hole in the wall" restaurant that I've been to in a long time since it's actually located in the backside of a hospital. I discovers this place through Yelp's random restaurant chooser and I didn't read the reviews before hand, so I had to make a lap around the entire building to find it. I only knew that I wasn't in the wrong location because I saw people eating outside on the tables.The menu is posted outside and it reminds me a bit of a drive through window. The staff members were very pleasant. At the time I visited, we could not physically enter the cafe. I really wanted to try their eggplant panani, but unfortunately it was not available. Instead, I went with the Maharaja burrito because it seemed popular. I did not add avocado, which I will eventually regret. I got my order after 10 minutes and ate it outside at on of the little tables. The order came with napkins, a spoon, and salsa. This burrito had a lot of rice. There was some melted cheese that made things a bit interesting and a few pieces of very delicious mushroom, but it was mostly rice. The salsa that came on the side was very average. The rice itself had a mild hint of Indian flavors and spices, but ultimately felt underwhelming. The burrito also started to fall apart halfway through (could be my fault though, not the restaurant's). In the end, what I got was a nice rice burrito. You can either view it as glorified rice (rice, but in a tortilla) or a lame burrito (burrito, but mostly rice).Overall I do like the concept and do not regret trying this place out. It has a ton of interesting vegan and vegetarian options. I still think it's worth checking out especially if you have an appointment or work at the building, but this isn't a place where I would take a detour for or bring a friend who just flew into town to.

There has been a lot of buzz around Appu's Cafe and I have to say it is worth the hype. This little kitchen cafe is tucked away in the back of the medical building and is a Long Beach hidden gem. The owner was so incredibly welcoming and kind and informed us that all the food is prepared without frying any oils. We ordered the Maharaja Burrito and the Paneer Tikka tacos with avocado and both dishes were so flavorful, fresh, and filling. If you're looking for a health delicious meal come check it out!

This was rated as the top 20 in yelps best 100 in the OC so this was a friends suggestion. However, the place is located in the back of a medical office. The owners where one was a former doctor. So there's plenty of parking but limited for the back. There's an even a sign on the grass so it's hard to miss. It's not an actual cafe so you have to eat at limited table seating outside. I order the marinhara burrito and yellow lentil soup large. There's a Yelp check in for the free chai tea ($5 normally). It has a refresh tasting so it's ok. These orders are homemade so be expected to wait at least 10 minutes or so if you just walk in and order. Calling it togo might be faster. Was it worth it? It's a fusion between Indian and vegan. Well the burritos are ok. Yellow lentil soup is decent but it's just broth and lots of mushrooms. It's not spicy if you are spicy lover. Overall, the place is nice and have friendly staff but i recommend this place if you plan for a healthy meal option.

Food is excellent! We ordered on-line, so we could pick up easily. They are still not serving inside, so there is no where to eat there. Entrance is in back of building and only signage I saw was by back entrance. We had the Mushroom Masala with Indian Flat Bread - it was all soooo good. I could eat this daily. We also had the Maharaja burrito which was also delicious. Their service is great. I was greeted immediately and observed them taking an order for someone else. They were thorough and conscientious making sure we were taken care of. Love this place!

Exemplary service and DELICIOUS food! I'm so excited I finally got to try this cafe. I ordered the mushroom soup with turmeric rice and my bf ordered the potato tacos. Ahhhh so fresh, delicious, healthy, and filling !! The owner made us feel so welcome and even served us complimentary lemongrass tea while we waited. That's rockstar service! The cafe is in a medical building around back. There are about 3 tables outside if you want to eat there and 2 were available when I went. This place is awesome and I'm so excited to go back and try a burrito!

Another great meal at Apus Cafe. This time I brought my work colleagues, and they loved the variety of healthy dishes. It was Taco Tuesday which did not disappoint. The mushroom soup is also my favorite. We learned from VR how valuable turmeric is for our brain health. And we watched him making a large batch of healthy rice while we enjoyed our Lassis. Delicious even though everything is so healthy and nurturing for our bodies!

Do not patronize.Ownership takes advantage of teenage staff. Admits that he requires them to go far beyond the scope of their work. Disgusting.
