Food- Comes hot, perfect size to try a few, and so tasty. Service - Very kind service.- Fast and a short line when I arrived. Ambiance- Cute small interior with a few window seating and small tables and chairs.I need to try the other flavors! They were perfect size, not too big so I got to try a few! I'll be back for more!

LOVE their empanadas and pot pies! This is a great spot to grab something to-go and heat up later. But if you want a quick snack that hits the spot, you can have your treats heated up and enjoy while there!

I genuinely had no idea that empanadas could be so insanely delicious. We decided to take a stroll around Noe Valley with the kids and do some window shopping. We all got hungry for lunch. There were delicious smells coming out of Aps Cafe. We went in and decided to try an empanada. We got the chicken empanada and also the potato and leek. They were hot, savory, and surprisingly delicious. So we ordered about 10 of them!!! Highly recommend.

This is the spot in Noe Valley to get consistently tasty empanadas . I like getting the beef Argentina empanadas. I also had the chicken and potato pie which was delicious and savory. Ap's Cafe empanadas and pies are always fresh.It's kind of like an international bakery, They have empanadas and pies which are sweet or savory

Fried empanadas for the win! But, can't be eating those on the regular...unless you're a unicorn that's been blessed with an amazing metabolism. For the rest of us that gain weight just *watching* mukbangs, AP's Café gotchu!Opening in 2016, AP's Café serves healthier than the norm empanadas. They're baked and lightly seasoned...a good option if you're watching your cholesterol and salt levels. They're open for takeout with limited seating inside. Delivery is offered via their website. There's a bench outside if you have your doggie with you. M E N UBaked empanadas with global influences: Argentinian beef, curry chicken, masala cauliflower, chicken macaroni cheese, chicken mushroom, potato leek, etc. ($4.95 each). They also offer soups: thai chicken soup + lentil masala and salads ($5.69-$6.45). They partner with Peasant Pie's for savory handheld pies ($6.05-$6.35) and sweet tarts ($6.05 each). Drinks: Coffee, mango lassi and bottles drinks/soda. F O O DEmpanadas are $4.95 each in-store and $5.25 each on 3rd party apps. They're sold cold but the staff can warm it up for you. TIP: When warming them up at home, brush some olive oil before air-frying or putting them in the oven so the wrapper doesn't dry out too much. * Chicken Curry (4 stars): https://tinyurl.com/2p9p6rdc* Argentinian Beef (4 stars): https://tinyurl.com/2p9p6rdc* Masala Cauliflower (4 stars)* Potato Leek (4 stars)* Chicken Mushroom (3.5 stars)* Chicken Spinach Empanada (3.5 stars): https://tinyurl.com/5fayuz69* Chicken Macaroni Empanada (3 stars): https://tinyurl.com/dh5bkefnI've tried most of their empanadas. They're generously filled with a thin, crisp pastry layer (not buttery). My favs are the curry/masala and argentina beef because they have the most flavor/spices. The other ones (non-curry based) run on the bland side which I'm fine with since I don't like overly salty foods. I usually add hot sauce at home. Would be nice if they offered a housemade one. The only one I wouldn't get again is the chicken macaroni...plain and bland, needs more cheese and/or spices.* Peasant Pie's Spicy Clam Pie ($6.35): https://tinyurl.com/5f7pteptNot a fan, the pie crust is like an Israeli-style pita but thicker and denser. The spicy clam filling is ok...tomato based and has this rustic taste to it. IMO, it's more of a stuffed bread than a pie. S E R V I C EFriendly and humble mom and pop type business. They're always kind to label (handwrite) the empanadas even when I politely decline.A M B I A N C ECasual, compact café with one display case and one communal table with stools for seating. P A R K I N GMetered and residential parking. Overall, if you're looking for tasty and healthy empanadas, AP Café gotchu. I usually buy a bunch and keep them in the freezer for a quick WFH meal when I don't have time to cook. Two empanadas with a side soup or salad and you're golden.

Oh my word. Such excellent empanadas. We ordered for delivery, and they were still piping hot. Our favorite was the curry chicken, however, we ordered the macaroni and cheese, and the beef. It was all amazing.We also ordered the chicken Thai soup which was so flavorful and I am glad we ordered. Honestly, I feel like you can't go wrong with an order here. We will definitely order again when we go to San Fransisco.

So, my husband and I (vegan) were looking for a unique place to take my parents (meat lovers) as we passed through SF, and empanadas sounded like just the right thing to try.My parents ordered the Argentinian beef empanada, chicken & potato pie, and the thai soup. They both thought the empanada/pie were alright, but thoroughly enjoyed the soup. My husband ordered the chicken spinach and thought it was fine, but nothing special.I ordered the cauliflower masala and the garbanzo bean curry pie, and while the curry pie was good, the cauliflower masala was BOMB.

Ap's is a tiny place filled with yummy foods and friendly folks.We were walking near Castro and 24th streets and came upon this little shop. We read the menu (see photo) and smelled the savory scents and went inside. The display case is packed with hand pies - both savory and sweet - plus there are soups, and there is a a frig of beverages. We each ordered 1 empanada and 1 pie. 4 different flavors filled our plates. The proprietor was welcoming, patient, and knew all her stock. The seating area is limited to the storefront window, but we were comfortable and had plenty of room in our corner of the U shaped area that seats about 6-9.Our lunches were heated to perfection, smelled heavenly, tasted delish, and were easy to hand eat. We had our eyes on the sweet pies for dessert, but were too full! But, that's OK - we'll be back next week on another errand and will stop by again --- "life is short, eat dessert first!"

Friendly service and the pies and empanada are delicious. Perfectly baked crust and the fillings are so creative. Loved this place for a quick lunch or grab and go. Cute ambiance and fun to sit at the counter with a view of passers-by. Great neighborhood gem.

Ordered 15 of these for a baby shower and everyone was raving how delicious they are. One friend from Chile (who's an empanada expert) said these were top notch. The empanadas were individually wrapped and each bursting with a lot of filling.It was a breeze ordering ahead online and the staff was kind enough to walk my order to the car so I could pick up and go quickly. Will definitely come back!
